Kennedy Claims
Ike Slows Down
Northwest Growth
Eugene. Ore. flP Sen.
John F. Kennedy (D-Mass.)
said Sunday the Pacific North
west's growth has been slow
ed down because the Eisen
hower administration has
'slowed down, halted and
hamstrung' the region's
power development.
The youthful-looking sena
tor arrived on a delayed trip
to Oregon and began a round
of political appearances can
celled last month because of
labor legislation debate in the
Senate.
Speaking at a Jefferson
Jackson Day dinner here, he
told Democrats "While our
new starts on hydroelectric
projects " decline, while we
neglect your projects here in
Oregon, the Russians move
ahead . . . four Soviet projects
now completed or under way
are each greater in capacity
than the Grand Coulee dam."
"By 1975," he said, "their
total capacity will far exceed
our own."

Sputnik III Now Out
Of Orbit, Reds Say
Moscow Ut Sputnik
III, which completed its 50th
circle of the earth today, no
longer is following the same
orbit as its carrier rocket, the
official Soviet news agency
Tass reported.
It said the rocket carrier
now was moving a little be
low and ahead of the earth
satellite. The rocket will gain
seven minutes on Sputnik III,
and this difference will con
tinue to , increase gradually,
Tass said.
Lone Auto Safaris
Made By Dutch Girl
By DOCK QUIGG
U.P. Staff Correspondent
New York TP Some girls
take up knitting as a hobby.
Some girls listen to records.
Some collect dolls, some col
lect men but Maria Cecillia
Van Niftrik makes one-girl
safaris.
She drove, alone in a small
European car, .12,000 miles
from Holland south through
16 countries to Capetown. Her
continent - length meander
down Africa was a frightening
encounter with the burning
Sahara, land mines, floods,
the steamy jungle and only
six punctures.
Maria Cecilia is 22, Dutch,
pink -cheeked, brown -eyed,
medium chubby. ,
Having mastered Africa,
north to south, she has a new
motoring program in mind.
She's here contemplating a
drive from New York down to
Argentina. Then, she figures
she may take a ship over to
Capetown, do Africa south to
north, drive home and then
shove off for an overland ram
ble from the Netherlands to
Singapore.
She did 'Africa on her own
finances. But she's letting it
be known that if anybody
wants to sponsor a girl auto
pilot on her future exhaust
ing trips, she wouldn't object.
To Africa by Car
It was last July, while she
was driving along among the
bloomed-out tulip beds, that:
"I just thought all of a sud
den, 'Okay, I'm going to Africa
by car, so I can see it.' My
mother and my father, they
hated it. They tried every
thing to stop me. But I wanted
to see Africa.

"So my mother packed
three-month supply of tinned
goods the kind that lasts in
the heat in my car and I
started out last Dec. 12."
Three months later she was
at the bottom of Africa. It
wasn't easy.
"It was happening many
things in the desert," she said.
"The first 600 miles of the Sa
hara is rocks hills and holes
and rain.- Raining! I never
saw something in my life:
Many times I would just get
Through the water holes and
the engine would stop.
"The rebels put land mines
in the road. Once a truck blew
up right behind me. Just a lit
tle to the left, and I would
have been the one who blew
up. Then I lost the truck con
voy I was in. I was so scared,
because the rebel bandits will
kill anyone alone. That night
I stopped to sleep in my car.
A French military car came
along.
Officer Gives Warning
me otticer said, if you
stay here, you won't "be here
tomorrow morning. Move.' I
moved fast. Then to the sand.
There is 700-800 miles of it
just sand . . . and sand . . . and
sand sometimes a tiny hill,
still sand. Everything is
yellow.
"Everybody who crosses
has. to pay 60,000 francs.
Why? Because if you don't get
from one radio station to an
other in a certain number of
days, they figure you are
stuck in the sand, and that's
what it will cost to come and
fetch you. I didn't have the
60,000 francs. v
"The commandant said,
'You can't go.' I went any
way. About four days in the
sand alone. No road. You fol
low markers, oil drums paint
ed red every 100 to 300 yards.
Hundreds of times I felt the
motor just going to stall, the
wheels settling. But I always
got out.
- "Nobody can understand it.
Across on the other side, the
captain was just laughing, he
was so surprised to see a girl
alone. Ha ha. What a yoke. I
had gambled and I had won.
! Ecfuatorial Africa was terrible
too. Native villages. Losing
the road in the jungle. Chang
ing a tire in 130-degree heat
in the Belgian Congo."
I'd say this is touring the
hard way.

Building Citizens
Educators' Job
Omaha, Neb. (IP) Edu
cators have a duty to help
build mature citizens despite
the fact that parents cannot
fully delegate their responsi
bility, a university president
told the National Congress of
Parents and Teachers Sunday
night.
The Very Rev. Paul C. Rei
nert, S.J., president of St.
Louis University, told some
3,500 delegates to the Na
tional P.T.A. convention that
teachers " and parents must
work hand in hand.
The theme" of the four-day
convention is "Mature Citi
zens for 2t Mature America."
Father Reinert defined ma
turity as "the ability to make
choices consistently that are
reasonable and sound." He
stressed moral responsibility
as one mark of a mature in
dividual and said the class
room teacher must be "al
ways and obviously a morally
responsible person."

Two Men Resign
From Craca Junta
Caracas (IP) The ruling
junta's two civilian members
resigned Sunday night as a re
sult of its refusal to take
strong action against the Com
munists who mobbed Vice
President Richard M. Nixon
last week, it was reported to
day. Informed sources said Eu
genio Mendoza and Bias Lam
berti quit after the junta's
three military members, head
ed by Rear Adm. Wolfgang
Larrazabal, failed to 'approve
restrictive measures which
were said to include a ban
on the Communist party.
They predicted that Justice
Minister Angel R. de Sola and
junta Secretary Edgard Sana-
bria will be designated to fill
the two vacancies in the
junta.
Sherwood Man Dies
In Tractor Mishap
Sherwood (IP) A tractor
accident claimed the life of
Otto J. Petrich, Sherwood,
Saturday.
Police said a tractor ap
parently rolled forward,
crushing the 64-year-old man
under the rear wheel. He had
been seeding grain when the
accident occurred.
GOOD INTENTIONS .
Massa, Italy. (IP)
Communist Giordano Alberti,
29, faced the wrath of the
party Saturday forv heckling
an electoral rally of Commu
nist leader Paolo Rossi.
Embarrassed Alberti - ex
plained he mistook Rossi for
a Social Democratic leader
with the same name.
Camp during the California
gold rush.
Tule Jim, entered by Chuck
Vasacker, took the finals with
a leap of 14 feet 5V2 inches
while Maggie, jumped by
Vasacker's son Larry, jumped
14 feet 4V'4 inches.
Tule Pete, entered by Mike
Voitich of Stockton, Calif.,
was third at 13 feet 7
inches. ,
Top Foreign Jumper
Top foreign jumper was a
frog called Veni Vidi Vici
which came and saw, but
wasn't able to conquer the
California entries. However,
the entry, submitted by Piem
Vourie and Mrs. Tuens Botha
of South Africa, hopped 12
feet 10 inches to win the for
eign division.
Rolli, entered by Bror W.
Lander of Sunne, Sweden,
turned in a disappointing hop
of only 4 feet 9 inches.
This situation raised some
suspicions that the Swedish
entry may have suffered the
same fate as Twain's frog of
the gold rush days, which was
slowed down by a gullet full
of buckshot by a shrewd gam
bler. However, there were no
grounds for the suspicions
Rolli was merely expecting.
. Rolli's understudy, a frog
named O'Reille I, entered by
Frank McNeff of Turlock,
Calif., finally entered for Ire
land and jumped a respecta
ble 10 feet 2V2 inches.
I Hopalong Wei, also known
as Won Long Hop, failed to
live up to its name. The en
try of the Civil Air Transport
of Free China was good for
only 4 feet 8 inches.
Sweet Leilani, out of Hono
lulu, might have done better
in a hula contest. She jumped
only 4 feet 3 inches.
