That seemed almost certain last week after the legislature; ,the governor and even the White House leaped into .ac tion at word the stale depart-. ,ment of education had burned ,650,000. unused elementary textbooks in the last 1 f6ur years and had still another .970,000 surplus books stored tri warehouses. ' " ';' j "i rAt.woalr's AnH thp Henart- nient said a reviewof Its rec ords showed that only 184, 000 texts had been' burned all of them this year- and the -remainder haa actually' gone dor pulp.) , i., r. .v, '. r Gov. Edmund G. Brown said he telephoned the White' House and found the federal .government might be able to; put them to "great, use, par ticularly in Africa" . . ,;. Would Evaluate Books ! But he said the U.'S.-In- formation Agency would have to evaluate the new elemen tary school readers to decide whether they should be ac cepted. i The department said the books were burned when they became obsolete because they could not be sold and state law prevented making a gift of state property. Disclosure of the burning Immediately spurred the legis lature to launch' an investiga tion and demand that the de partment put a halt to It. Assemblyman Glenn E. Coolldge, R-Fenton, author of the resolution calling for the Investigation and chairman of the ways and means subcom mittee which will conduct It, said the probe may take in all facets, of the textbook pro: gram. 1 ' Cites Contracts Indirectly involved was the state's system of providing textbooks for local districts by leasing the printing plates from private publishers and printing the books in the state printing plant, Tha education department said contracts for leasing the plates prohibited the state from selling surplus books outside California. Assemblyman Gordon H. Winton, D-Merced, said a bill he introduced would direct the state to provide districts with a selection of texts, so that huge amounts of one un used text would not accumu late. At present, the state gen erally accepts only one text In a subject. Elsewhere, there were these developments: Shooting: A 15-year-old Lew- iston, Calif., boy went into his parents' bedroom and killed both of them with a .22 rifle because, he said, he hated his father and dldn t care much for his mother. Daryl Moss, an Explorer Scout, secretary of his troop and president of the sophomore class at Trin ity County High school, was arrested about an hour later in Redding. At week's end, after a Juvenile court hearing he was taken In custody to Mendocino State hospital for a psychiatric examination ; Saaborgi Senate members of the Congressional Atomic Energy Committee gave unan imous approval to -President Kennedy's nomination of No bel prize-winner Glenn T. Seaborg as a member of the Atomic Energy Commission. The group acted immediately after Seaborg, former chan cellor of the University of Cal ifornia, at Berkeley, testified at a hearing in Washington. His .nomination went to . the Senate for confirmation. Pres ident' Kennedy has indicated that Seaborg will be named commission chairman. j Nixoni Reports that former Exhibit of Atomic Students at six high schools in southern Oregon will have an- opportunity to "get ac quainted with the wonders of our present age" at special assembly programs, scheduled next month. Featured will be "This Atomic World," a. traveling atomic energy exhibit of the U.S. Atomic- Energy commis sion.

Illus trative charts, panels, models and equipment play important roles in the demonstration of the fundamentals ot atomic energy. 7 '-. I .'..
