Shalleiige Kennedy Ik pfoirey m xreen m JTSS ss X West Virginia Primary Meet Is Being Considered Washington -(UPD- Sen. John F. Kennedy appeared today unlikely to pick up Sen. Hu bert H. Humphrey's challenge to fight it out in the May 10 West Virginia presidential primary. Humphrey (D-Minn.) said he still was weighing Ken nedy's (D-Mass.) invitation to meet in the Nebraska primary the same day as the West Vir ginia contest. But he indicat ed his decision would be to stay out. Humphrey said West Virginia offered a better "cross section" test than Mid western primaries. Kennedy further showed that he will carefully choose his primary contests by for mally withdrawing from the April 12 Illinois race in which he had been entered by Lar ; Daly, perennial candidate for various offices. ' AHumphrey supporter, meanwhile, officially entered New Hampshire's March 8 primary as a candidate for convention delegate favorable to Humphrey. Kennedy al ready has entered the New Hampshire contest. A Humphrey aide here said the New Hampshire action was taken without Hum phrey's knowledge and "does not represent an effort by Senator Humphrey to enter the New Hampshire primary." Kennedy supporters in New Hampshire took steps to re move Daly and hillbilly sing er Elton Britt from the pri mary ballot there. The Ken nedy backers said they want ed to keep what they called "publicity seekers" out of the race. Kennedy and Humphrey have signed up so far to clash head on only in the April 5 Wisconsin primary. A defeat in Wisconsin could hurt Ken nedy and virtually wreck Humphrey in the Democratic presidential contest. Challenge by Inference Humphrey announced Thursday he would enter the West Virginia primary. By inference, he challenged Ken nedy to compete with him there. "Since there are a number of candidates who want pri maries, I invite them in," Humphrey said. Kennedy has said repeatedly that any Dem ocrat seeking the nomination should put his popularity on the line in primaries. Humphrey expressed confi dence he would defeat Ken nedy in Wisconsin. .The Minnesota senator said he would decide what to do about the May 3 Ohio primary after the Wisconsin contest. Ohio Gov. Michael DiSalle will run in his state's primary as a favorite son pledged to Kennedy. '' DEMONSTRATION While a police ser geant grabs a demonstrator by one arm, another demonstrator launches a left during a demonstration in New York.

One man was injured in the fighting. Police arrested 10 men.

Waldo Arrives in San Francisco; Has Jet Flight San Francisco -(LTD- Ichthy ologists at Steinhart Aquar ium are in a tizzy here-Wal-do has arrived. The four -foot, 24 pound sand shark was shipped here Thursday from New York Aauarium on a transconti nental jet flight that set a precedent for traveling sharks. The baby shark, who ex perts say will reach a length of nine feet at maturity, made the trip in a plastic bag filled with salt water and pure oxy gen. The bag was crated in New York and placed in the cargo department. On arrivial, Waldo, not in the best of temper from the air trip, was greeted by Dr. Earl S. Herald, director of San Francisco Steinhart Aquarium. "He looks like a barbed wire fence coming at you," Dr. Herald said. Shipped in Exchange Waldo was shipped by Dr. Christopher W. Coates, direc tor of the New York City Aquarium in exchange for some trigger fish. "It will be the first time," said Coates, "that the people of San Francisco see a shark that looks like a shark." But Coates was probably forgetting that the people of San Francisco had already an unpleasant impression of sharks last summer, Albert Kogler, 18, was killed by a large maneater while swim ming at a local beach. Officials promised this one would be quite secure in a 2,300 gallon tank at the aquarium. Though Waldo is now swim ming menacingly about in the tank with 200 ahole-ahole fish from Hawaii, Herald said r I960 DODGE TRUCK Immediate Delivery! v 6 Cylinder Economy Engine H.D. 3-Speed Transmission Heater and Defroster Modern Sweptline Styling Turn Signals Electric Windshield Wipers Gasoline Tank Outside of Cab Serviced Ready To Go $2,3&500 $53.75 PER MONTH Parsons Motors Dodge Plymouth Headquarters 315 E. 5th Next to Greyhound SP 3-3687 MedfordTribune Regional Edition Page 2 Selling Continues To Lower Market New: York (UPD Selling forces continued to drive prices lower on the stock mar ket today.

Democrats Say Destiny of U.S. Betrayed by Apathy Under Ike New York -(UPD- Two lead ing Democrats said Thursday night the nation's destiny has been betrayed by apathy un der the leadership of Presi dent Eisenhower. "The presidency is a great educational post," Adlai E. Stevenson, twice defeated for that post by Eisenhower, said. But under the past two ad ministrations, he said, "we have seen it used to prevent, rather than to promote, the education of the people." Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey (Minn.) said the American people should "stop gloating over the size of our national product and ask ourselves what we are doing with it." Measures Ignored Stevenson and Humphrey contended the administration has kept back from the peo ple the true nature of Rus sian military and economic progress, that work toward a disarmament agreement has lagged, that domestic social and economic measures have been ignored. , Space Agency Man Says US. WdOB CSrclIe Moon by '67 Washington-flJPD-A high of ficial of the nation's civilian space agency told Congress Thursday that the United States is planning to send a manned satellite around the moon and back to earth some time between 1965 and 1967. Richard E. Horner also said the National Aeronautics and Space Administration plans to land an unmanned satellite on the surface of the moon some time in 1963 or 1964. Horner, associate adminis trator of NASA, gave these predictions in testimony be fore the House Space committee. He further said the space agency looked for "a manned landing on the moon" some time after 1970. Horner reported NASA now plans two launchings of the 1,500,000-pound thrust Saturn space engine in 1962. He pre dicted that by 1963 the U.S. would be able to launch a 30,- 000-pound space craft in a 300-mile orbit around , the earth. By 1965, he said, the U.S should be capable of launch ing space craft weighing 40,- 000 pounds into similar orbit and by 1967, space vehicles of 50,000 pounds should be achieved. He said these achievements were consistent with the technical knowledge now available to NASA if "enough resources" were channeled into their develop ment. Before yesterday's hearing, a member of the House com mittee said NASA might en counter difficulty getting money from Congress unless it provided more information to the legislators. Rep. B. F. Sisk (D-Calif.) told United Press Internation al: "If the agency is going to take a policy of not giving us full and complete informa tion, we're going to have to take a good hard look at every item in the authoriza tion." Duty to Taxpayeri At issue is the agency's 802 million dollar budget for the 1961 fiscal year beginning July 1. Sick said he had a deep in terest in seeing the nation's space program move ahead as fast as possible but that Con gress "has a duty to the tax payers." EXPECT MORE TRAFFIC Detroit -(UPD- Another 30 million drivers are expected to take to American highways over the next 15 years, accord ing to government forecasts. The predictions are for 111 million drivers by 1975, a 35 per cent rise from the' present 82 million drivers. Yours for the asking from Don Srarhos Just received new shipment of 100 Calendars!

Keller, general counsel for the Gen eral Accounting Office, Con gress' financial watchdog. They asked Keller about NASA's refusal to give the committee information concerning- two major develop ment contracts totaling 130 million dollars. Both were featured speak ers at the annual Roosevelt Day dinner of Americans for Democratic Action, at which Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt pre sented Stevenson with the Roosevelt Day Award for his .contributions to foreign pol icy. Earlier in the day New Hampshire and West Virginia were added to the states in which Humphrey's name is entered in presidential pri maries. Does Not Explain Stevenson characterized the Eisenhower administration as one which "can turn itself into a Miltown tranquilizer factory, with each press re lease, each speech, each pub lic appearance designed not to tell us the truth, not to ex plain our situation. . ." Humphrey said the admin istration's apathy was pointed up by Eisenhower's recent statement that we should question Russian missile claims because the Russians were untruthful in claiming they invented automobiles and airplanes. "The Russians didn't invent the automobile and the flying machine," Humphrey said, "But they did invent Sput nik and they planted a rocket on the moon." fej ; P to,' L ...
