IRS assigned an agent from its intelligence division to the hearings by the House Legis lative Oversight subcommit tee. A number of discjoekeys have told the investigators they took thousands of dol lars in money and gifts from record companies, but denied this influenced their choice of music for their programs.

BEFORE AND AFTER Medford Finance Director Darell Huson stands beside the city ordinances which formerly filled 11 volumes. Following the codification of the city's ordi nances, undertaken primarily by the bureau of municipal research and service on a contract with the city, .they now fill the single notebook in the foreground. The purpose of the codification was to place all the substantive ordinances in a single volume, indexed, and in logical order. According to City Attorney Joel Reeder, in a codification, all prior ordinances are repealed, and the Code itself is the city's law. He explained that it gives concise interpretation of the laws and removes confusion caused by conflicting ordinances which develop through the years. The project was started in 1958. The Code was adopted by the Medford city council Jan. 7.

Fear Expressed For Collapse of Geneva Talks By United Press International There was an optimistic be lief in official circles in Wash ington today that Russia may eventually accept - President Eisenhower's new proposal to ban most nuclear weapons tests. But in Geneva, site of the 15-month-Iong East -West nu clear ban conference, Russian delegate Semyon Tsarapkin's out-of-hand rejection - of the Eisenhower proposal Thurs day plunged the talks into gloom. Fears of Collapse There were even fears in Geneva that Russian rejection of the proposal, which rep resented a major concession on the part of the United States, might result in the collapse of the marathon talks. Tsarapkin called the new U.S. proposal to 1 ban all weapons .tests except small underground blasts "unaccept able" and a "step backward." Included in the proposed ban would be all atmospheric, ocean, and outer, space nu clear blasts. Sent To Moscow "After . the American pro posal the chances for the con ference have been greatly re duced," Tsarapkin said, but he agreed to send the proposal to Moscow for a final decision anyway. Thursday night Moscow Ra dio joined Tsarapkin in his denunciation" of the Eisen hower proposal, saying the partial test ban plan showed "the U.S.Al is prepared to go to any length to thwart the conclusion of a treaty pro hibiting all kinds of nuclear weapons tests." The official Russian broad cast monitored in: London said the U.S: proposal really "means freedom of action" in resuming nuclear - tests. - At present, the United States, Britain and Russia observe a moratorium on test blasts. "The latest American pro posal shows that the oppon ents of ending nuclear weap ons tests are getting the upper hand," Moscow Radio said. Propaganda Expected ' American officials in Wash ington said they had. more or less expected suclj propa ganda blasts from the Rus sians, but they believed the Soviet Union in the end will accept the Eisenhower plan after careful consideration. These same Washington officials .pointed out that Tsa rapkin's statement was made to newsmen, and did not con stitute a formal Russian re jection of the American pro posal. President Eisenhower Thursday described the U.S. proposal as one that would "allay world - wide concern" over radioactivity in the at mosphere because it would make 'illegal all tests that would contribute to radiation. Same As In Past - First Russian reaction, how ever, was the same , as in the past a complete ban or none at all.

(Science ServiceK-First-grad-ers might profitably be taught fundamental nuclear physics. Dr. Donald J. Hughes, senior physicist at Brookhaven Na tional Laboratory, Upton, N. Y., said. He reported that even nu clear physicists find it diffi cult to think in terms of the inside of an atom because "common sense," based on ex periences in the larger world of man, interferes. Much of the "strange stuff" about the atom could be grasp ed at age six, he told sci ence writers at a seminar here. Children can graps the unorthodox, he said, and per haps grow up without the mental blocks adult experts admit to. SHOWS THE BOYS Tallahassee, Fla.
