World Neighbors Last Place Visited By Magsaysay Washington 'U.R) The last place President Ramon Magsay say of the Philippines visited before he was killed in a plane crash recently was a sewing class in the town of Lilo-an on the island of Cebu. The class is one of the proj ects of World Neighbors, Inc., a privately-' financed group that spends $120,000 annually help ing people help themselves in the villages of the Philippines, India, and Ethiopia. When a village asks World Neighbors for help, said execu tive director Louis W. Gehring at the group's headquarters here, "we do only what they want us to do." Gehring estimated that 700, 000 persons in 1,500 villages have been helped since World Neighbors was founded four years ago. In addition to sewing classes, the organization finances youth clubs, health activities, schools, libraries, recreation fa cilities, and drainage and sewer system construction. Two Groups Joined The group supports classes to teach natives in using local ma terial to make items for export. Right now 71 Filipinos on Cebu island are learning -how to lead their people to a more modern way of life. The organization is supported by about 10,000 private sub scribers. "We don't have a concise enough program to get founda tion money," Gehring said. One man in Chicago contributes $10, 000 at a time. A woman sends 25 cents a week. World Neighbors, Inc., was formed in 1952 by a Washington group including Norman Vincent Peale, Rep. Walter Judd of Min nesota, and several prominent clergymen. . A group called World Assist ance, Inc., was formed in Okla homa City about the same time when Dr. John L. Peters, then a professor at the city university delivered a sermon which in spired a group of citizens to do something to further world peace. The groups merged in 1953 and Peters became president. On a 1952 world tour, Peters ar rived in India during a famine. Twelve of the organization's 16 projects now are an India. U. S. families on the average spend more money for dairy products than for any other group of foods other than meat.

The Navy announced the two stage rocket soared 120 miles up over the Atlantic before the sec ond stage detached itself and roared out to sea. The Navy said the second stage of the rocket finally fell into the Atlantic after using up its fuel. The distance it flew was not disclosed. The tet was the second in a series working up to the firing of a three-stage rocket. The Navy said it primarily tested methods of high altitude separa tion of rocket stages. However, scientists tracked with delicate instruments the entire flight of the two-stage rocket after it roared skywards. The Navy said the rocket rose vertically a short distance, tilted toward the horizon and shot out over the ocean. It said the rocket reached a peak velocity of 3,500 miles an hour. The first test firing in the sat ellite project involved only a Viking. The big rocket soared 125 miles above the earth last Dec. 8 at a peak speed of 4,010 miles an hour. Marine Shatters San Francisco Bar San Francisco U.R) The Marines, in the person of Pvt. Howard Hvidsten, 20, landed with a vengeance on the Marines Memorial club early today. The Aberdeen, Wash., leath erneck staged a one-man assault on the club's 12th floor bar, smashing every piece of glass ware, and dozens of empty glass ware in the place. Hvidsten, who returned Tues day from Japan, had attended a dance at the club Tuesday night and had apparently cele brated so vigorously that he was. overlooked when the bar was locked up. Glassware damage was esti mated at S500. Hvidsten was taken to' the Treasure Island brig to recover from his shatter ing experience. Rickreall Man Wins Suit Over Highway Dallas, Ore (U.R) Joseph A. Harland, Rickreall farmer who once tried to keep the State Highway commission from buil ding the 4.4 mile highway be tween Rickreall and Dolph Cor ners, was awarded $17,000 against the commission by a Polk county jury Tuesday night. The highway commission had condemned part of Harland's land for relocation of the Salem Coast highway now under con struction. The commission offered Har land S5.250 for his land which he refused. His asking price was S11,000. The jury also awarded Harland six per cent interest on the $17,000 effective as of last Sept. 23. Congress in 1886 made the of ficial U. S. inch four-millionths longer than the standard British measurement. START NOW Save BBok.' SPECIAL GARDEN HOSE 50 Ft. SUPPLEX clear host. Light weight, oasy-to-use!
