POLARIS ON NIGHT TRIP Blazing its path into the sky,
a Navy Lockheed experimental Polaris missile takes off at
Cape Canaveral, Fla. The introductory night flight was re
quested by the Air Force to test facilities for tracking solid
fuel rockets through dark skies, according to informed
sources. The two-stage missile's second stage was scheduled
to hit 900 miles downrange just north of Puerto Rico. The
Polaris is to become operational as a nuclear submarine
weapon late next year. (UPI Telephoto)

FEWER MD'S SMOKING
Boston (UPD A marked
change has occurred in the
smoking habits of Massachu
setts doctors during the past
five years, according to sur
veys conducted in 1954 and
1959 among approximately
5,000 medical men. In 1959,
only 39 per cent reported
smoking cigarettes compared
with 52 per cent in 1954.
About half the current smok
ers use less than one pack per
day. Among the more than a
pack a day smokers, the rate
declined from 30.5 cigarettes
to 18.0 the report said.

Lewis Resigned to
Avoid Fight Over
Eventual Successor
Washington il'PD John L.
Lewis decided to step down
now as president of the Unit
ed Mine Workers to head off
a possible power struggle
over his eventual successor in
the union leadership.
This was the explanation
that associates gave today for
the 79-year-bld labor leader's
surprise announcement Tues
day that he is resigning as
UMW chief early next year. '
They also ,said departure
from office would not silence
the "thundering voice of. the
captain of a mighty host," as
Lewis once described his role
in behalf of the miners.
These friends said Lewis
certainly would continue as a
non-paid trustee of the
UMW's welfare fund. They al
so expect him to testify be
fore congressional commit
tees on coal industry prob
lems.
Seeks Orderly Transition
Lewis was said to be seek
ing "to- insure an orderly
transition" in the UMW lead
ership by lining up his succes
sor well in advance of the
union's presidential election
next December.
UMW Vice President Thom
as Kennedy, 72, automatically
steps into the top job when
Lewis bows out. Kennedy was
expected to run for a full
four-year term as president.
But all eyes within the
union will be focused on the
man selected to fill Ken
nedy's vice presidential spot.
That choice may be made far
ahead of election time to
build up the man who even
tually will succeed to the
presidency.
Praises Kennedy
In his letter of i resignation,
Lewis praised Kennedy to the
skies.
John Owens, secretary
treasurer of the 500,000-mem-ber
union, is 69 and his col
leagues believe that he is not
interested in moving up the
ladder.
This leaves two men prom
inently in the leadership pic
ture - W. A. (Tony) Boyle,
about 50, an assistant to Lew
is who came out of the Mon
tana district of the UMW, and
Michael F. Widman, director
of market research and a for
30-Df Ckfft or.

mer CIO organizer in auto
plants.
Although the race has just
started, these two are consid
ered to have the inside track
to succeed Kennedy eventual
ly as . president. Both have
been working on high prior
ity tasks for Lewis in recent
years.
Nixon To Limit
Primary Scraps
To Few Stales
Washington-dTD-Vice Presi
dent Richard M. Nixon can be
expected to limit his 1960
residential primary efforts
to a handful of states even if
Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller in
vites contests in all possible
areas.
This judgment came today
from a well-posted informant,
who said Nixon would be too
busy in Washington to en
gage in primary scraps for na
tional convention delegates in
a dozen or more states. It was
indicated that the vice presi
dent would be in only four to
six of the state primaries.
Rockefeller told a news con
ference at South Bend, Ind.,
Saturday that, if he became a
candidate for the Republican
presidential nomination, he
would seriously consider en
tering all state primaries.
Can Record Preference
Fifteen states and the Dis
trict of Columbia now have
laws of various types to allow
voters in a primary election to
record their preference among
candidates for the presidential
nomination of their party.
,Nixon was expected to oe
entered in the June 7 primary
in his home state of California
and in the May 20 primary in
Oregon, where a new -state
law will put all major con
tenders in both parties on the
ballots.
Denendine in Dart on
Rockefeller's moves, the New
Hampshire primary March 8
and the Wisconsin primary
April 5 and possibly one or
two other states were listed

Denett Stubblelfield Leaves
hospital; Sister Remains
Portland (DPI Tiny Den
nett Linn Stubblefield was
released to her parents today
from the hospital where she
was successfully separated
from her twin sister last Oc
tober. The other girl, Jeanette
Kim, must remain in the hos
pital for an indefinite period,
as likely places for preconven
tion campaigns by Nixon.
Supporters of both Nixon
and Rockefeller already have
set up campaign organizations
in New Hampshire, -which
holds the nation's first presi
dential primary. Wisconsin,
which holds the second, also is
a probable spot for a contest
between the two contenders.
As the underdog and with
most of the GOP organization
leaders leaning heavily to
Nixon, Rockefeller needs to
show voter support if he is to
get serious attention from the
national convention.
Many Republicans think the
New York governor must win
or at least make a strong
showing in New Hampshire to
escape being counted out
early next year.

doctors said. The two girls
were born Siamese twins last
June and were separated here
Oct. 10.
The smiling parents, Mr.
and Airs. James Stubblefield
of Parma, Idaho, wrapped
Denett in a blanket and left
for home by car.
Denett was described as the
stronger of the two but Jean
ette's condition is good. Both
girls are "alert and active"
and both play with rattles and
other toys In their cribs, doc
tors said.
The girls had a combined
weight of 9 pounds 10 ounces
when they entered the Uni
versity of Oregon medical
school hospital the day after
they were born June 29. De
nett now weighs 11 pounds 7
ounces and Jeanette 14
pounds 12Vi ounces.
The twins were separated
by a 17-member surgical team
Oct. 6 in a five-hour operation.
The surgeons found that the
grils' livers were joined and
that the breast bones and
heart sacs were fused.
Doctors said Denett would
return to the hospital for

periodic checkups. In Jean
ette's case it was necessary to
place a tracheotomy tube in
her windpipe for breathing.
She is now being gradually
weaned away from the tube.
Doctors said they could not
estimate how long Jeanette
would remain in the hospital
but her mother said she had
been given hope the little girl
might be able to go home
sometime in January.
Within one to three years
the girls may undergo surgery
to repair holes, or hernias,
which they have in their ab
dominal walls. In the mean
time, although the area is
now covered with skin, the
children will be fitted with
corsets as added protection
for abdominal organs.
Doctors said they felt that
both girls will be able to lead
normally active lives.
They added that a search
of medical literature indicated
this is the first time Siamese
twins joined so intimately and
extensively in the abdominal
and chest regions have been
separated successfully with
both children surviving.
