Russian May Be
First Man on Moon
New York-O-TD-A Columbia
University astrophysicist said
today that the first man may
land on the moon within two
years-and he'll probably be
a Russian.
Dr. Lloyd Motz, associate
professor of astronomy, said
he believes the Russians could
have hit the moon with their
Lunik satellite. And he said
he does not believe the
launching of the United
States' Pioneer IV sun satel
lite last week puts us in "the
same league" with Russian
space explorers.
The energy required to
launch the Russian satellite
was more than 100 times
greater," Motz said. "Our
finer instruments cannot
make up for such a vast dif
ference in power."
He said the Russian Lunik
apparently was intended to
orbit the sun, since its fourth
stage rocket was not fired un
til it was within the gravita
tional field of the moon.

Ike Faces Task of
Military Shakeup;
New Defense Chief
Washington -UPD- President
Eisenhower faces the prospect
of shaking up his military high
command as well as finding a
new defense secretary in the
explosive months ahead.
Terms of office are running
out for the Joint Chiefs of
Staff who will march before
the Senate preparedness sub
committee this week to tell
how ready their forces are for
a Berlin crisis.
The fact their terms are ex
piring could be an important
backdrop for their testimony
and govern how dramatically
they may want to express their
reservations about the Presi
dent's defense budget.
Changes Indicated
By mid-August Eisenhower
must replace or reappoint all
the four chiefs who are respon
sible for planning major mili
tary strategy and directing
the big combat -commands.
Defense Secretary Neil H.
McElroy, who himself plans to
leave his post by Dec. 31 bar
ring a grave emergency, al
ready has indicated there will
be changes in the joint chiefs.
That calls for decisions fairly
soon to pave the way for other
shifts that come with a shake
up at the top.
If Eisenhower should decide
to reappoint the entire slate
because of world conditions,
he presumably would an
nounce that soon to end specu
lation and disrupting Penta
gon guessing games.
Taylor to Retire .
Gen Maxwell D. Taylor, 57,
chief of staff of the Army,
which seems to have most com
plaints about the defense bud
get, let it be known informal
ly Monday that he expected to
retire on June 30.
The second member of the
joint chiefs winding up a sec
ond two-year term is Adm. Ar
leigh A. Burke, chief of naval
operations. He too is 57. His
tour ends Aug. 17.
Gen. Nathan F. Twining, 61,
chairman of the joint chiefs, is
expected to be reappointed if
he wants to continue in the
post.
Liner Queen
Mary
17 Hours Late
New York -(UPD- The liner
Queen Mary arrived 17 hours
late Monday night on its At
lantic crossing due to heavy
seas and gale winds.
Capt. Andrew MacKellar
said the ship got off lightly
with minor damage reported
to its superstructure.
"No crockery was broken,"
he reported.
The Mary's sister ship, the
Queen Elizabeth, suffered its
worst crossing in many years
last week when $6,000 worth
of dishes was smashed as the
ship rolled in heavy seas.
Off-Duiy Soldier
Is Wine Tester
Frankfurt, Germany - (UPD -Specialist
Paul D. Rhoades of
Aliquippa, Pa., is a happy
soldier indeed. He spends his
off-duty time tasting wine for
his father-in-law, a German
vineyard owner.
The 30-year-old specialist is
stationed with the U.S. Sev
enth Army's 40th Artillery
Group in Wackernheim, His
father-in-law's vineyard is in
Ebersheim, on the wine-famous
Rhine River.
Besides helping his father-in-law,
Rhoades also works
for the local wine commission
as a taster. He's been tasting
Rhine wine since 1950 and
says his biggest thrill came
in 1953 when "some wine
from our vineyard was se
lected to be sent to England
for the Coronation of Queen
Elizabeth II."
The most important indus
trial product of Chile is ni
trate of soda.
The stalwart Indian braves
Gen. Thomas D. White, 57,
Air Force chief, also is expect
ed to be reappointed. Twining
and White end their first two
year terms on Aug. 15 and
July 1 respectively.
It has been customary to re
appoint military chiefs to sec
ond terms in recent years.

Portland School
Board Rules on
Student Beards
Portland -dTD- Beard lovers
lost their appeal to the Port
land school board Monday
night.
The board said, in effect,
that if high school principals
so decree then off must eome
the beards.
A packed audience - which
contained a sprinkling of
beared men attended the
school board meeting.
Gary Sanders, 16, a bearded
student from Franklin high
school, wanted to keep his
beard. He failed to shave it off
at a Feb. 14 deadline set ear
lier by school officials after a
Centennial beard contest.
Personal Matter
Sanders' father, Frank A.
Sanders, said he believed
beard-growing was a personal
matter, that there is an indivi
duality to maintain in a demo
cracy and that his son wanted
to stay in the spirit of the Cen
tennial. Board Director Herbert M.
Schwab said that some boys
and girls would come to school
most improperly dressed if
left to their own decisions.
"Some of us who can be trust
ed to do the right thing find
our liberties restricted for the
good of the whole," he said.
Sanders said he was not cer
tain what his next step would
be.

Hatfield's Tax
Proposal Voted Out
Salem-UPD-The House Taxa
tion Committee has voted out
Gov. Mark Hatfield's com
bined capital gains and ciga
rette tax proposal, but without
any recommendation as to
its passage. '
The measure, proposed in
the governor's inaugural mes
sage, provides for a reduction
of capital gains taxes if a
similar amount is raised from
a cigarette tax.
Called for is a two-cent a
pack cigarette tax and a 10
per cent tax on other tobacco
products. This would bring
in some $7 million.
The governor hopes that a
$7 million reduction in capi
tal gains would stimulate Ore
gon's industrial development.
