Radio Signals From Space May Indicate Life
London (Science Service) -Radio
astronomers today
might have more to go on in
trying to receive intelligent
signals from space if criticism
had not discouraged a scien
tist in 1900
. Nikola Tesla,' electrical en
gineer and inventor, told the
world at that time he had re
ceived radio signals from
, space at his experimental sta
tion at Colorado Springs the
year before. ,
He said these signals sug
gested "number and order,"
as if a system of communica
tion was involved. He felt .ceo.
f tain that the signals were not
due . to any of the .known
causes of radio signals, includ
ing auroras, or , "northern
lights", or earth currents.
Only later did the idea oc-,
cur to him that the source of
the signals might have intelli
gent extra-terrestrial control.

fishing pressure and harvest

Russian Scientist ,
Urges Cooperation
Washington - (Science Serv-ice)-A
Russian scientist urged
international cooperation in
earth science studies, with the
aim of "improving the life of
mankind."
.Despite the repeated em
phasis on space, "it is still nec
essary" to know more about
our old home, the earth, and
put it in good order," Dr. V.
V. Beloussov, president of the
International Union of Geod
esy and . Geophysicists, said
here. .
Dr. Beloussev stressed that
cooperative study of deep
earth layers would yield in
information of help in fore
casting earthquakes and in
learning more about the for
mation of ore deposits.

Hears Signals
. Dr. Frank Drake, a radio
astronomer at the National
Radio Astronomy observatory
in Green Bank, W, Va., listen.
ed in on radio signals from
space in the spring of 1960 in
operating project OZMA spon
sored by the National Science
foundation.
He used the 85-foot radio
telescope for the" studies of
two stars, Tau Ceti and Epsi
lon Eridanus. These two stars
are similar to the sun and
thought possibly "to have
planets like the earth.
However, Dr. Drake did
not record any radio signals
from the vicinity of these stars
that indicate a system of in
telligent communication. He.
told Science Service telephon
ically that he plans ; in the
future to listen in on space
again and is now studying in
strumentation "in order to do
a better job of recording the
radio noises the next time."
He said the U.. Army has
wax records of radio noises
heard in the early 1926's at
the time when Mars came
close, to earth in , its-travel
around the sun. Dr.- Drake
said he has not been able
to obtain these records, claim
ed to sound like intelligent
signals,, for study yet.
Marconi, the discoverer of
radio signals,, also reported
hearing radio noises sound
ing like, an intelligent system
of communication similar to
the Morse code. '
Bachelors Turn Flair for Entertaining Into Business
New York-tUPI)-A couple of
New York bachelors have
turned a flair for entertain
ment into a booming business
involving big names.
Leonard and Morton Web
er, who describe themselves
as specialists in public events,
have during the past seven
years had as guests former
President Eisenhower, Queen
Mother Elizabeth, Eddie Ar
caro, Helen Hayes, .top eche
lon diplomats and industrial
ists. Many of their clients have
become friends and frequent
ly drop into the Weber office,
a brown-stone house on Man
hattan's fashionalbe East Side,
for a drink or chat.
. A key to the Weber Com
pany's success is this: If Ei
senhower and Helen Hayes
were to compare notes on
Weber-managed banquets ' at
which they were guests of
honor, they would discover
that they were vastly differ
ent. Leonard, the younger ' of
the two brothers, explained:
Parents Can Cause Drinking Problem
' New Haven, Conn.-(Science
Service)-The weakness of al
coholic parents is suggested as
one of the' reasons for ado
lescent1 problem drinking. By
proving their ability to drink
successfully in contrast to the
way their parents drink, the
youngsters are asserting their
independence.
Seventeen boys and three
girls treated under the aus
pices of the Peter Bent Brig
ham hospital alcoholism clinic
and the Massachusetts Youth
Service board said they had a
vivid recollection' ; of their
first drink.
In every case the young
drinkers' personalities were
marked by hostility, depres
sion, impulsiveness and sexual
confusion, and the majority
had been in schools for delin
quents. The fathers of most
were alcoholic and in some
cases, the mothers also.
The report was made by
James R. MacKay, executive
director, division of alcohol-

Non-Smoking Actress
Takes to Cigars
Dallas. Tex. - (UPD - Marv
Bozeman Raines', an actress
with the Dallas Theater cen
ter production of "The Visit,
astounded her husband one
night with the request, "Dear,
show me how , to smoke a
cigar." ' '
The actress, who is a non-
smoker, was forced to learn
to smoke three stogies a peo
formance for her role in The
visit." . : v -
"It takes me a whole day
to get rid of the taste," she
said, "and I know now that
it will never become a habit-'
MAP PUZZLE
Boston is as far south' of
the British Isles as Rome.
"No two things we've ever
done are alike, We custom
tailor our entertaining. This
is a new approach in banquet
ing, which can so easily be
come stereotyped." i. ,
In 1949, Leonard, now 34,
and Morton, 38, were just two
of the thousands of young ad
vertising men struggling to
carve a niche for themselves
on New York City's Madison
Ave. Both were dissatisfied
by the opportunities offered
by their respective offices.
They opened up their own.
'Their social lives and in
terests varied, but they shared
reputations as formidable
hosts, and an intense loyalty
to their alma mater, Columbia
University. '
In 1954, a high "ranking
university official, who had
enjoyed . many post-football
game parties in the Webers'
homes, suggested that they
undertake all the program
ming, promotion and enter
tainment for Columbia Uni
versity's bi-centennial year.
' The entertainment, which
involved one gala banquet in
honor of the .President . and
another for Queen Mother
Elizabeth, was something
startlingly new to both broth
ers. . , ' '
The: mammoth chore,
which also included side din
ners for the Secret Service
agents guarding the President
and Scotland Yard and U.S.
State Department escorts for
the Queen Mother, won the
Webers three things: the bus
iness of Columbia University,
an introduction to the man
whom they regard as their
"patron saint", as well as to
their next big client.
The man was Phillipe, then
the guilding force of the Waldorf-Astoria.
He undertook to
give them a concentrated
course in the art of prepar
ing banquets.
The service at the Columbia
dinner so impressed one guest,
a senior officer in the influ
ential Citizen's Union, that he
asked the Webers to handle
the organization's banquet the
following spring. The modera
tor at that dinner was Tex
McCrary, a television person
ality and public relations man.
He landed them their third
major client, the American
Theater Wing, which was
planning a First Night Ball
to honor the golden jubilee of
Helene Hayes.
After the hotel cleared
away the debris of a combined
Broadway show-dinner dance,
the American Theater Wing
found itself with a profit of
$50,000 and the Webers with
a small gold engraved mem
orandum pad. - -
On the outside it was In
scribed: "H.H. to M.W. and
L.W., First Night Ball, Dec.
30, 1955.". On the top page of
the pad, in the star s own
handwiting, was: "Dear Mort
and Len, all my love, Helen
Hayes." The Webers said that
they knew hey were on their
way. Their business has been
mushrooming steadily ever
since. - " ;
Not Snobbish
"We are not being snob
bish when we say . that now
the only . clients we can afford
to handle are the big ones,"
said Leonard, "This is because
we are a two-man business
and the only thing we have to
sell is our service.
Their clients are, - Indeed,
big. They have included the
American Council on NATO,
for which they organized a
full-dress diplomatic dinner
for Gen. Lauris Norstad; the
Knickerbocker Ball,, one of
New York's top society af
fairs; the American Associa
tion for the United Nations
and the Academy of Tele
vision Arts and . Sciences,
which presents the Emmy
Awards. .
As a result of their pro
fessional , entertaining -the
Webers have become confirm
ed meat and potatoes men
("It's still the most satisfying
meal"). They believe that bus
iness lunches often are a
waste-of time and prefer to
conduct work over tea
cocktails. Leonard is such a
expert bartender that he often
takes busman's holiday and
handles the bar at parties of
friends where he is one of the
guests.
Not the least Important ele
ment in the Webers' success
is their presence and appear
ance in meeting people.
Our friends kid us about
cultivating a kind of quiet
conservatism and about wenr-
ing vests," said Morton. "Sura
we wear them for warmth,
but we also realize their fav'
orable impact on older cli
ents." ' '
