CHECK r 73 REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD SHOP PENNEY'S SPACE MAN'S COCOON - This Is an art ist's conception of a space man returning to earth in his own "cocoon" vehicle made of plastic foam. It's the main feature of an emergency system, devised by General Elec tric engineer John Quillinan, which allows , the space traveler to spin his own cocoon for a fast return from a damaged space craft. As shown here, the space ship has been damaged by a meteorite. The escaping man has inflated and filled a reentry ve hicle with foam and is heading back to earth. The vehicle protects him from the heat of reentering the atmosphere, and a parachute opens for 'the landing on earth. (UPI Telephoto) Louisiana Governor Seizes New Orleans School System To Forestall Integration Baton Rogue, La.-IUPD-Lou- Islnna today awaited results of its governor's sudden seiz ure of the New Orleans public school system, his first direct effort to forestall the start of school Intergration in the state this fall. The Now Orleans school board has been under orders from the U.S. District Judge J. Shelly Wright to Integrate first grades when school opens in September. Gov. Jlmmle H. Davis Wed nesday Issued an executive order wresting from, the school board "exclusive con- Lodge Men Laud Oregon Delegate Atlanta - IUPD - An Oregon delegate to an Atlanta meet ing of the Supreme Council of the Knights of Columbus was commended Wednesday for his "outstanding efforts in behalf of the Knights in his home state. Supreme Knight Luke E. Hart of St. Louis was a guest of the Oregon delegation at breakfast Wednesday. Hart said, "I speak without hesi tancy that Past State Deputy Joseph H. Bllsscnbach will go on the record as an outstand ing leader In the West for Columblanlsm and Catholi cism, He performs his duty as state deputy second to none in our nation." Bllsscnbach, from The Dalles, Ore., will receive a plaque later as a token of appreciation for his contribu tion to Columblanlsm, accord ing to Hart. trol, management and admin. istratlon of all the schools in the parish (county) . of Or leans. Cam As Surprise He directed the schools to open Sept, 7 presumably on a segregated basls-with James F. Reemond, superintendent of schools, acting as his agent in operating them. The seizure had been pre dicted by state officials for some time, but nevertheless came as a surprise. It was ex pected to be an llth-hour re sort. Davis' order is based on a 1060 state law, which gives the governor authority to as sume control of school dis tricts required to integrate by court order and which stipu lates traditlonaly segregated classrooms will be maintain ed until the legislature votes otherwise. The statute also stales that lawsuits pertaining to schools under the governors control must include the slate as a defendant and that the legis lature must grant permission before the state can be sued. Mite Quarantine To Protect Honeybees Salem-IUPD-A quarnntlne on ( mite which causes acarinc disease of honeybees and three Vforelgn" bees which it Infests was signed Wednesday by Agriculture Director J. F, Short and approved by Acting Gov. Walter J. Pearson. The action was taken to pre vent Introduction of the dis ease Into Oregon. The mite Is acarpls woodl rennic and the disease which it causes Is one of the most serious affecting honeybees, Short said. Salem Man Dies As Result of Crash Albany IUPH Arthur Erick- son, partner in the Erlckson supermarket grocery chain, died Wednesday afternoon In Albony General hospital from Injuries suffered in a car ac cident south of Albany just betare noon. Police said Erlckson's car struck the rear of a truck loaded with empty milk cans, spun around, and flew through the air about 20 feet. Police said Erlckson apparent ly swerved at the last minute in an effort to avoid the truck, which was turning loft, so that the left front part of the car hit the truck. Glcen Bush of Tangent, driver of the truck, was uninjured. Scissors Plant Clipped by Thieves Irvlngton, N.J. - Thieves sheared the Atomic Cutlery Co. of 6,500 pairs of scissors. They ' took eight shipping cases of medical scissors worth $10,000 after they Jammed the burglar alarm - with a pair of scissors. State Attorney General Jack Gremillion announced the executive order. 'This order is designed to let the legislature and the leg islature alone come up with a plan for integration," Gra million said, "and to leave to them w h a t ' is deliberate speed in desegregating schools. ' The people of Louisiana are dead set on being left alone to run their schools as they see fit, he declared. New Orleans has the third- largest segregated school sys tem in the nation and is the only district in the state un der Integration order, though suits for similar orders In oth er school districts are pending. Houston, Tex., has the na tion's largest segregated sys tem. Dallas, Tex., is second. Would Set Example School officials have said de-segregation here would lead swiftly to integration of public schools throughout the state. Davis has said he will close schools as a last resort rather than allow them to integrate. Thirty-one New Orleans taxpayers have .filed for a federal injunction against closure of the schools and ask ed that the order to Integrate be delayed or suspended. A companion state law to the one supporting Davis' seizure order permits him to close all public schools requir ed to Integrate. It also allows him to re-open them under private corporations. High Power Wire Electrocutes Man Ronton, Wash.-IUPD-James A. Taylor, 32, of rural King coun ty, was electrocuted Wednes day when he came in contact with a high power wire near here. Taylor, an oiler for the Bay Construction Co., was guiding a cable attached to a crane when it came Into contact with the power line.

The conduc tor at the front must work his way around passengers riding on the running board to collect fares inside and out. When crowded, riders have a chance to take part in a popu lar sport getting on, riding to their des tination and getting off before the conduc tor works his way to the opposite end of the car. The fare is about three cents. (UPI Telephoto) Trolley Car Ride in Rio Takes One Away From Tourist Route 47 Rio DcJanelro-IUPD-It's not tough to break out of the tourist routine and "go na tive" in Rio. Just take a trol ley car. Or drop into the neon- lighted American Barnjuar antecd, no English spoken. Or hie yourself to the third floor of a department store, whose name you don't under stand, and utilize sign lan guage to pick out a bright Brazilian skirt for a 5-year- old. The view of Rio from, the 1,206-foot height of Sugar Loaf is breath-taking. The sweeping curve of white sand and blue ocean at Copaca bana Beach Is inviting. Motor bus tours can take you every where you "should" go to be sure you've seen this moun tain and ocean-rimmed South American gem called Cidadc Mnravilhose (Marvelous City). But getting away from all those other tourists who speak your native tongue is some- Government To Join Arizona in Voicing Colorado Objection New York -IUPII- The federal government and the state of Arizona today present their objections to a proposed set tlement of the Colorado river water rights dispute, U.S. attorneys are. sched uled to argue for three hours after sneaking one hour Wednesday. Arizona will pre sent its objections after the government. However, Arizona's objec tions are expected to be of minor nature since the deci sion generally is considered favorable to the state California Wednesday raised strong objections to the for mula on the opening day of final hearings here. California Attorney General Stanley Mosk broke a years long precedent to present his state's position. He Is the first California attorney generally personally to argue a case ouU side his own state since Earl Warren. "This is an Immensely Im portant case," Mosk told UPI. He said if the final decision is too strongly against his state, California "will have to go di rectly before the Supreme Court." Disaster for California Mosk warned U.S. Supreme Court Special Master Simon H. Rifkind it "would be noth ing short of disastrous" to the Southern California region in which 7 million people live if Rlfkind's May 9 proposed de cree to end the Iong-Btandlng Colorado river system water rights dispute were accepted by the Supreme Court. California was presented by a 40-man team of water supply and reclamation ex perts who presented their ex ceptions to Rifkind's proposed solution to the five-state con troversy. Nevada, Arizona, Utah, and New Mexico plus the United States intervening for itself and 25 Indian reservations will be heard today and Fri day. Representatives of the state of Nevada and the U.S. gov ernment said they were in "substantial agreement" wl.h the proposed Rifkind settle ment. They recommended that the proposal with only minor modifications be submitted to the high court. Could Chang Decision Nevada was represented by Chief Counsel Clyde Parry. The U.S. was represented by David Warner of the Depart ment of Justice. Rifkind, who may still amend or alter his decision made after four years of legal hearings and study, so far has not indicated he contemplates any changes in his ruling which almost certainly will be accepted by the Supreme Court. At the core of the contro versy Is the fact that the vast Colorado River Basin does not have water enough to satisfy the needs and demands of the contending states California chief c o u n 1 1 1 Northcutt Ely said the Rifkind decision would eventually dry up the water supplies to Los Angeles, San Diego and 70 other cities scattered over wide area of Southern Cali fornia "It Is too late In 1980 to re write the history of the Colo rado river," Ely told the court, just as It is too late to capture the billions of dollars of public and private invest ment by 7 million Southern Callfornians placed in reliance upon the Colorado river supply." Cities Would Suffer Ely charged that the Rif kind decision would irrigate projected and as yet un reclaimed cotton lands in Ari zona at the expense of the en tire water supply for cities In Southern California. In its arguments California claimed that Arizona was get ting water for projects not yet built at the expense of urban ized and industrial Southern California. It further contended that the stale's $500 million Colo rado River Aqueduct and its distribution system would be rendered useless" under the proposed decree as soon as projects are constructed in the Upper Colorado River Basin in Arizona and Nevada. The decision, Califronia de clared, would allow each of Arizona's 1.3 million persons 3.5 acre feet of water with each of California's 7 million residents getting .4 acre-foot. Resentencing of Prisoner Ordered Portland - IUPD - Robert Cas sor), 24, formerly of Portland, has been returned from the Oregon State Penitentiary for resentencing. The Supreme Court ordered the re-sentenclne because it said the lower court had not made clear the grounds on which Casson was found guil ty. Casson was convicted in 1958 of contributing to the delinquency of a minor boy. He was serving an indeter minate sentence with a max imum of life before the Su preme Court ordered resentencing. SOUNDS FISHY Montgomery, Ala.-fl)PD-Gov. John Patterson wrote Gov. J. Millard Tawes of Maryland Wednesday that Alabama may not be able to take part in Maryland's national hard crab derby next month. "The con servation director has just ad vised me that he has attempt ed to locate our prize racing crab, but he was so fast that he got away from us," Patter son wrote. BUSTY WRITES BOOK Los Angeles -IUPD- Former burlesque queen Busty Brown 35, told reporters Wednesday she has quit dancing to write a book entitled: "Don't Call Me Busty." thing that should be done on ny foreign visit. And there couldn't be a nicer place to do It than Rio. The Cariocas who inhabit Rio are friendly, eager to help and tolerant of the guide book gibberish that's sup posed to sound like Portu guese when spoken by the tourist. Taxis arc chcap-the five miles from downtown Rio to Copncubann costs about 50 cents-but if you want to go native, do as the natives do and take one of the hundreds of stubby buses darting about the streets or an ancient open-air trolley. Sign Gives Hop , Failing to communicate with the policemen on a cor ner, a distinguished white haired man and assorted pas sers-by, a bright neon sign proclaiming "American Bar' gave hope of finding out which trolley to take and where to catch it. But it took a few more stops to get the directions In English-although everyone readily dispensed advice in Portuguese. Besides getting to sight-see off the tourist track as tha car meanders to its destina tion, the trolley offers a first- line seat to what appeared a popular sport-getting a ride without having to cough up the 3-cent fare. The conductor collecting fares makes his way to each row of seats along on outside runningboard, swinging around passengers also riding outside. The sport seemed to be getting on at the opposite end of the car and getting to or near the destination before the conductor could work his way up to collect the trolley company's due. Can B Faiclnating Downtown Rio can be ev ery bit as lascmaiing anu stimulating as making the tourist rounds. Clothing, gifts and refresh. ments are inexpensive. With the cruzeiro exchanging around 180 to $1, an attrac tive woman's skirt sells for about $3, fine grain shoes at about $5, or an elaborately woven wool stole $2 from a sidewalk Indian peddler. Drop into the stores. As soon aB they find out you are from the United States some one will search' out a clerk speaking Engllsh-lf there is one-or someone good ot In terpreting sign language. : There may be a few smiling giggles at your attempted Portuguese, but it's open, friendly, and far from olien- . sive. Two or three clerks may cluster around trying to help, Just because you're an "out-of-t o w n e r." Someone will write out the price If they see you don't understand. Walk up ana aown me narrow and crowded shopping street's off the Avenlda Rio 3ranco and you get the feet of the city and Its Latin people. Can Hav run uay Take a break and stop at an open-fronted bar for a tiny cup of thick Brazilian coffee or try out the Portuguese word for becr-cerveja-and settle back to enjoy an extra tall, cool bottle of lively -brew for 17 cents. With 2,000 cruzeiros (just over $10) in your pocket, a willingness to go along with the slower Brazilian pace and a desire to get on with the people, you can have a pleas antly full day, see things others miss and go back to your hotel with an armload of gifts and souvenirs. Then be sure to go out and see everything the other tour- -Isti see-the sights are more than worth it, and besides, the folks back home expect It of you.
