(UPI Telephoto) Israel Using Extreme Precaution As Trial Date for Eichmann Nears Jerusalem - (UPD - Israeli authorities aren't sure just what will happen when they put Adolf Eichmann on trial, but they are going to fantastic security lengths to guard against any eventuality. The determination of Israel to place Hitler's "extermina tor" of Jews on trial before the world - and then hang him - is nowhere more apparent Although only 31 per cent of the Negro schools in the survey actually had white students in attendance, 91 per cent declared their readiness to accept any qualified appli- int regardless of race. His overall conclusion was that the rate of desegregation in church-related colleges is "far below that which obtains for state - supported institu tions" in the South. "Instead of leading," Dr. Long said, church - related schools "seem to be follow ing public institutions appear to be responding to legal and political forces more effective ly than private instiutions are responding to the moral and religious influences central to their church-relatedness." ADOLF EICHMANN Extra Precautions than in the care with which they are guarding him. This country is taking no chances on assassination - or any other act that might close the book on Eichmann prema turely. Not all security plans for the trial, scheduled to begin March 15, have been com pleted, but these are some of the things being done: -Fifteen booths are being equipped inside the entrance to the community center -where the trial will take place - to expedite searching of 800 spectators and newsmen. Confined in Box -A 15-foot high wire fence is being strung around the community center, around a police officers' club across the street which will serve as a restaurant during the trial, and around the entire street itself. Residents in buildings across the street from the center will be confined to a narrow walk that just permits access to their homes. And each resident's coming and going will be carefully check ed. -Inside the court, a bullet proof box constructed of test ed, impervious glass and a special plastic material will confine Eichmann himself. Two guards will share the box with him. -A detail of 200 specially picked police men and women will be responsible for order and security in the trial com pound. Most are being brought in from other, parts of the country so there will be no depiction of the strength of the local police. -Eichmann will be kept in the building during the trial, presumably in a special cell in the basement, to eliminate any problem of having to guard him in traveling back and forth each day of the trial, which is expected to last about two months. -Floodlights are being in stalled on telephone poles and rooftops around the trial building, to keep the area lighted around the clock. Posted on Rooftops -Some of the police security force will be ttationed in strategically located pillboxes in and around the courthouse. Others will be posted on roof tops overlooking the commu nity center. ' Authorities expect about 480 newsmen from all over the world to cover the trial. This will leave room in the courtroom for about 250-300 spectators. Newsmen will be on the court's floor level, spec tators will occupy seats in a balcony. Admission will be by American Tourists To Spend More For Vacations and Travel This Year -An increase in the number of two-car families from 34 per cent of AAA members in 1955 to 41 per cent in 19(50. -An increase in the popu larity of national parks to a record of (i7 million in 1960. A total of 81.5 million visited national forests in 1959, the last year for which there were figures, and 255.3 million visited state parks in the same year. -An increase in summer travel to Florida to the point where August has become the peak tourist month in what used to be almost strictly a winter resort area. Major Complaint The AAA said that the travelers' major complaint against motels was their higher rates." As for hotels, NEWS New York -ll'PU- Americans are going to take more vaca tions - and longer ones - this year than ever before. They arc going to travel farther and faster, spend more money, let more and bigger fish get away, share more pic nic lunches with the ants and get more blisters from hiking than any other tourists in the nation's history. While close to two million persons will go abroad, nearly five million will visit Canada and at least 700,000 are ex pected to journey to Mexico. Most To Tour in U.S. But most travelers will do their touring within the con tinental United Slates. Last year alone, an estimated 30 million autos carried about 90 million persons 65 billion miles to vacation destinations. These are some of the facts gleaned by the American Automobile Association in a "profile of the American tour ist." The AAA reported that 85 per cent of all trips of more than 100 miles are taken by automobile. Air and rail fa cilities each accommodate four per cent of the total and bus lines two per cent. Five per cent of all travel last year was a combination, usually of car and airplane. Both bus and rail travel have declined, according to the AAA. To Stop at Motels It reported thai average American traveler will drive more than 2,150 miles within the United States, probably visiting a slate park or nation al forest. He is likely to take most of his vacation time dur ing the summer and stop at motels en route to his destina tion. On arrival at their goals, tourists are equally likely to stay at hotels or motels or with friends or relatives, the AAA said. With longer vacation peri ods being granted by employ ers, there is a trend toward more vacations per year. A study of AAA members show ed that two or more annual REMEMBERS VOICE trips were taken by 44.5 per i,as Vegas, Nev. - (DPI) - A cent and 18.2 per cent took maskcd bandit armed with a Culinary Cuties 1 h e Applegate Culinary Cuties 4-H Cooking club mot recently at the school cafete ria. The meeting started with a demonstration by Adrienne Brion and Judy Drake on bak ing nut bread. This was fol lowed by a demonstration by Alicia Elmore and Kathy Pietre on making deviled eggs. After the demonstration, the meeting was called to order by the president, Adrienne Brion, and the secretary, Mary fietre, read the minutes of the last meeting. Roll call was answered by telling something we had made at home since the last meeting. Margaret Carlisls read the flag salutes, and it was report ed that we have $2.17 in our treasury. It was decided to have a candy sale at school to raise some money. The date was set for Feb. 17. The meeting was adjourned, and refreshments served. We also ale the nut bread. Beth Krouse, Reporter they objected to parking diffi culties and tipping. The traveler's chief re quirement at a motel was a restaurant. He also liked to have television and a swim ming pool, if possible. His chief annoyances while driv ing were traffic jams in cities, unclean rest rooms, inade quate route markings and hav ing to pass large numbers of trucks and buses. Domestic travel budgets have soared by 60 per cent in 10 years, the AAA reported. A total of $15 billion was spent on travel within the United States in 1950. The figure for 1960 was $23 bil lion. The AAA figured that two persons can travel comfort ably by automobile for $29 a day. This was based on driv ing 300 miles at a rate of IS miles per gallon. It allowed $10.50 for meals and snacks, $9.50 for lodging, $7 for gas and oil and $2 for tips and miscellaneous. Important Industry Tourism has become one ot the three most important in dustries in 28 states and the District of Columbia. It brought $2.5 billion to New York City in 1959 and even more in 1960. Florida ranked second in 1959, with $1.7 bil lion, and Pennsylvania third, with $1.25 billion. The sums spent in thesa three states alone was about equal to what the AAA pre dicts Americans will invest in all foreign travel in 1961, which means that the average tourist is sticking to the old motto: "See America First." three or more trips last year. Other trends reported in-cluded- ticket only, and no one will be admitted without screening in one of the 15 security booths at the entrance. revolver scooped up $300 In loot from Uncle John's Pan cake House Sunday and mut tered "Adios and gracias" be fore fleeing.
