Prof. G. Evelyn Hutchinson, Yale University zoologist, re ported to the American Phil osophical Society meetingi here results of an intensive pollen analysis she made with Dr. Ursula Cowglll of two three-meter cores taken from the bottom of Lake Montcrois. The deepest layer of the sediment was laid down, Prof. Hutchinson reported, in the Intcrstadlol between the sec ond third episodes of the Wurm glaciation, an event dated by geologists as in the neighborhood of 25,000 years ago. 'At that time, the pollen anlaysls indicated, the surrounding country was prac tically treeless and tundra like. Principal Producar A species of Artemisia, a genus that Includes the sage brush and shrubs of the aster family, was the principal pol len producer at that time. After about a third of the sediment had been deposited, a pioneer hazel community developed, followed by fir and then mixed oak forest i- ; 7 CABINET SPECULATION Publlciy President-elect John F. Kennedy has made no statement as to his selections for the cabinet. However, there has been speculation on the man he may pick for every job. Guessing shapes up this North Carolina Get Secretary of Commerce Job Washington -IPD- President elect John F. Kennedy held a discussion today on the pos sible appointment of Gov. Luther Hodges of North Caro lina as his secretary' of com merce. The subject of a possible appointment for Hodges was brought up in a conference between Kennedy and the man who will succeed Hodges, Gov.-clect Terry Sanford. Earlier, Kennedy held a break fast conference with Rep. Chester Bowles CD Conn.) and indicated that the foreign affairs expert may be given a role in the new ad ministration. Hodges was mentioned im mediately after K e nnedy's election as an almost certain choice for the Commerce De partment job. Appointment Discussed Kennedy and Sanford agreed that they discussed the possible appointment of Hodges who was one of Ken nedy's chief campaign work ers in the South and particu larly in the organization of professional and businessmen behind the Democratic ticket. Reporters tried to pin Ken nedy and Sanford down on Hodges being in line specific ally for secretary of com merce, but the president-elect declined to say more than they had talked over Hodges' qualifications for any high post, not Just one. Kennedy and Bowles met for an hour and 10 minutes in the Georgetown home of the president -elect as Ken nedy continued work on the construction of his adminis tration. They reviewed re- c e n t conversations Bowles has had with representatives of foreign governments here and at the United Nations. Decision Dua Later As for Bowles' future in the Kennedy administration, the president-elect told re porters: "We didn't discuss that, but we will be discuss ing It later." Bowles has been mentioned as a possibility for secretary of state or some other high post related to foreign affairs He was one of Kennedy's principal foreign affairs ad visers during the campaign. Arrangements also were completed for Kennedy to meet a week from today with President Elsenhower to dis cuss the change of admlnis tratlons. Kennedy, himself, said the meeting with Bowles would have no bearing on whether the Connecticut congressman Is named secretary of state or to any other Job. He sold pri marily he wanted to talk with Bowles about conditions abroad as reflected In Bowles' conversations with numerous U.S. ambassadors. Personnel Decisions Near After days of discussion within the Kennedy camp and in consultation with Demo Assault Charge Filed in Salem Salem - IIIPII - The Marion county district attorney has filed a charge of assault with intent to kill against Mrs. Diane Louise Harrison 28, Salem, in connection with strangling of the woman's 8 year-old daughter. The incident occurred early Saturday and Mrs. Harrison told police she Intended to kill the girl, a 6-ycnr-old son and herself. The girl was not seriously Injured. Mrs. Harrison was sent to the State hospital for observa tlon. Springfield. O h i o T h e guest of honor, Raymond Bcaty, was left by himself when a .fire Interrupted his retirement dinner. But Bcaty understood. He was a city fireman for 17 years and his farewell dinner was being held in No. 6 En gine House when It was in terrupted by general alarm factory firs, cratic leaders In other parts of the country, a number of basic personnel decisions ap peared near. The president-elect said he would have something to say "one way or the other" by Wednesday on his choice of either a budget director or an interim consultant to begin working with the outgoing ad ministration on fiscal matters. White Students Continue To Skip New New Orleans - IUPD - The seventh day of integrated classes begins today at two previously all-white element ary schools where attendance has dropped from more than 1,000 students to six-four Ne gro girls and two while chil dren. Tcssie, Leona and Gail, the three first graders assigned to McDonogh 19, had the school all to themselves Monday. Ruby, the only Negro assigned to William Frantz School, sat alone in class but two white children attended other class rooms. Study Growth of Viruses Under New Microscope Los Angeles-tScienco SerV- ice)-What appears to be the growth processes of viruses within a cell from naked threads of nucleic acid to full-clothed" rod-like viruses -has been revealed by elec tron microscope studies. Drs. John M. Adams and David T. Imagawa of the Uni versity of California Medical School at Los Angeles here, with Dr. J. R. Goodman of the Long Beach Veterans Ad ministration Hospital Re search Laboratories, studied three related viruses mea slcs, distemper and rinder pest. When these, as well as other viruses, attack a living cell, new objects called In clusion bodies appear in the cell nucleus and cytoplasm The UCLA Investigators ex amined these Inclusion bodies which have a characteristic pattern in cells invaded by each of the viruses under the powerful electron microscope Pattern Variai In certain stages of develop ment, the pattern is one of randomly arrayed thread-like strands or filaments. In other stages, it is one of closely packed rods. This evidence suggests that inclusion bodies are clumps of viruses reproduced in the in fected cell. The thread-like strands may be the immature virus, which consists only of its nucleic acid core. The dense rod-like pattern may represent clumps of mature or nearly mature viruses that have added a protein coat to their nucleic acid core. The UCLA scientists said tills technique of studying the virus within the infected cell may contribute valuable in formation to the knowledge of the "life history of viruses Other virus researchers have employed chemical and cen trifuge procedures of extract Ing the virus from the cell and then studying It by elec tron microscopy.

"We discussed the responsi Orleans Before integration began Nov. 14, there were 1,038 while pupils at the schools. Since then, about 400 have registered in schools across the parish county line in St. Bernard Parish. As classes began today, the city awaited the decision of a three-judge federal panel con sidering a school board re quest for abandonment of in tegration, which the board says makes the schools a "bat tleground" for the states rights controversy. A Roman Catholic priest ac companied a Methodist minis ter into the Frantz school to pick up the minister s daugh- ter-lhe only white girt at tending Frantz - after her classes Monday. The minister ignored the hooting of hecklers, but the priest, carrying a Bible, con fronted them. He approacnea four huskv men seated on a lawn and asked "do you have anything to say to me? When thev said they didn't the priest continued following the minister, but a group of housewives shouted to him that the Bible makes no call for racial Integration When he paused to discuss it with them, one of the women shoved him, and another called him "stupid" and threat ened to spit on him. Elderly Pharmacist Volunteer Fireman Paris, Tenn. - (UPD - As the fire siren started to whine the door of the drug store slammed open. A wiry, pixie-like individ ual rushed into the street, raced across the town square dodging traffic, hurtled two hedges and vaulted onto the tire truck. Eighty-year-old Marvin Mc- Swain was ready to go to blazes again. The octogenarian pharma cist would rather fight fires than fill prescriptions any day. He's been doing both since 1905, when he graduat ed from the Vanderbilt school of pharmacy. If McSwaln isn't preparing medicine or fighting a fire you probably will find him riding a bicycle, playing ten nis or roller skating with a granddaughter. McSwain thrives on exer cise that would daunt most younger men. How does he do It? "Believe In the good Lord ride a bicycle - and don't eat too much," he advises. Gloucester, Va.

The president-elect sought to depress any idea that the meeting involved a job offer to the former cabi net officer, saying "that is not what I came to see him about." Classes Segregationists fear Catho lic schools, which teach more students than public schools, will integrate this year. The archdiocese earlier pledged to integrate schools when public schools did, but this month said it would wait until public school integration proved ef fective." The minister, the Rev. Andy Foreman of St. Mark's Meth odist Church, said he received several anonymous telephone calls after school Monday be cause of his daughter Pamela Lynn's continued attendance at Frantz kindergarten. Efforts to withhold Louisi ana s electoral votes trom President-elect Kennedy fiz zled Monday when lawmakers said the proposal made Louis iana a "national laughing stock.

Inside Oil Tank Sidon, Lebanon (OPD The newest thing afloat in this ancient Mediterranean port city Is a raft launched inside an oil storage tank. The raft - made from logs, empty oil drums and wooden flooring - is shoved piece by piece through a hole in the bottom of an empty 100,000 barrel oil tank. Inside the tank the raft is assembled, then set adrift as the tank fills with water. When the raft reaches the top of the tank, workers board it and begin work, on a new roof for the storage tank. The tanks measure 134 feet in di ameter. Once the new : tal roof Is completed, the tank is drained and the raft is taken apart and shoved out through the hole in the bottom. Engineers for Tapline Corp. devised the rafts to take the place of more expensive scaf folds previously used for re pairing storage tank roofs.

The planters believe (jutsa must regain its share' of the U. S. market by 1961 if it is ever to do so. Once the Cuban quota has been reassigned to other countries, they say, it probably will be lmpossime to recover. Fear Florida Plantationi They also fear that by 1963 plantations now being estab lished in southern Florida will be able to produce enough sugar to supply U. S. needs, eliminating the necessity for foreign purchases. In the past, Cuban branches of U. S. banks lent more than $800 million to sugar planters to finance the annual milling process. The loans were re paid in pslrt from money ob tained by selling sugar to the United States at permium prices. v Now the branch banks have been taken over by the Castro regime and their vaults are empty, forcing the planters to look elsewhere for financing.
