Unit members would jump on rescue missions for down planer, particularly in inac cessible areas where lives might be saved due to the less time required in reach ing injured victims. Christcniansen said that he Is personally trying to estab lishing the unit which he hopes will eventually be a unit ot the CAP here. Persons in the unit would have to be experienced para chute jumpers and be trained in advanced first aid. There is no other CAP units like it in the United States Christ cninnscn said. He added that jumpers would have to have about six weeks training in jumping in rough terrain. Christcniansen e x p lalned that once the basic work in establishing the unit has been worked out Jack Sorenson director of aerospace educa tion, Hamilton Air Force" base, Calif., plans to present the program to the CAP national officers. Additional Information on the proposal may be obtained from Christcniansen at 125 South Oakdale ave., Medford, 797 Ballots Said To Be Missing In Cook County Chicago -IIJPII- Cook county politicians peered into two empty ballot boxes today for a clue to alleged vote scandals that could leave Illinois out of the Electoral College. At least 707 ballots cast in two far South Side precincts were missing in a "discovery" recheck of Nov. 8 county vot ing. They included 628 mark ed for Sen. John F. Kennedy and 169 for Vice President Richard M. Nixon. In the 86th Precincts of the 9th Ward, Kennedy beat Nix on 369 to 77. In the 56th Pre cinct of the 10th Ward, Ken nedy won, 259 to 92. Nixon i Gain Small The boxes were opened Monday as three dozen teams conducted the Republican-financed recheck of Kennedy's lopsided county victory that helped the Democratic president-elect win the state's hotly-contested popular vote. So far . Nixon has gained fewer that; one vote per pre cinct. He needs a per-prccinct average of 10 votes in 906 county paper ballot precincts if the GOP hopes to use Cook county to overturn Kennedy's 8,656 statewide margin. Chairman Sidney Holzman of the election commission said he didn't know where the missing ballots were. An other commission spokesman said they might turn up in a box of unused ballots and other election supplies. Need Court Order The "discovery" re-check has little more than publicity value, since official election board figures will stand un changed unless a court orders a recount. The empty ballot boxes, latest in a series of quirks in the Cook county vote, were sure to come to the attention of the GOP-dominated Illi nois electoral board which was preparing to meet again at Springfield. The board, headed by de feated GOP Gov. William G. Stratton, last week threatened to leave Illinois' vote uncerti fied, thus leaving the state's 27-vote bloc out of Electoral College counting. Democrats have said a mandamas suit could force certification of Illinois' votes, and Democratic electors gen erally expected their votes to count. i Public Responds With Car Reports Portland OJPD The sheriff's office said today it had so many reports on red or ma roon cars in connection with the investigation into the dis appearance of a coed and the slaying of her boy friend that it assigned one clerk to a full job of classifying them. An all-points bulletin was put out earlier asking for in formation on a 1949 to 1951 model car of that color re ported seen In the vicinity where Larry Ralph Peyton, 19, was slain and Beverly Ann Allan, sophomore at Washing ton Slate University, was ab ducted more than a week ago. "The public response has been wonderful," said Capt Gordon Auborn, chief of Mult nomah .county detectives. "There is tremendous interest in this case. It is cases like these which the public often helps break." However, authorities re ported no new promising lead. The girl's parents, Mr, and Mrs. Robert Allan, Monday returned to their home at Port Townsend, Wash. from Chief Warrant Officer Mary Hall at SPring 3-3505. Those Interested may attend a CAP meeting next Monday at 7:30 p.m. at the squadron's hall at the Medford airport. if i CO BED THE tui A CHILDREN PARTICIPATE Children of all ages are taking part in demonstrations around integrated William Frantz school in New Orleans as a white boycott continues.
