Four Vietnamese
Students Convicted
Saigon, South Viet Nam -IUP1I
- Four Vietnamese stu
dents convicted of attempting
to assassinate U.S. Ambassa
dor to South Viet Nam Fred
erick Nolting Jr. were sen
tenced to death Wednesday by
a special military tribunal, it
was reported today.
The government press
agency reported that the stu
dents also were convicted of
planning and carrying out
five other hand grenade at
tacks in the Saigon area last
summer, including two at
tempts against the lives of
U.S. Military Assistance and
Advisory Group personnel.
The attempted assassination
of Nolting took place last
August when a hand grenade
was tossed at the ambassa
dor's car. The grenade
bounced off the car's door but
did not explode.
The prosecutor charged the
students with being responsi
ble for the deaths of two Viet
namese soldiers in one hand
grenade attack, which also in
jured nine civilians.
The highest average or
mean temperature in the U.S.
is 26.8 degrees at Mt. Wash
ington in New Hampshire, a
record held for several years.

biologist and ornithologist, holds the fossil, in his left hand,
he believes to have come from the largest flightless bird the
world has ever known. The fossil, found near Gainsville, Fla.,
is an ankle joint, much like the rhea of southern South
America. The size of the fossil indicates it belonged to a bird
weighing 500 pounds or more. (UPI)

Tips for Good Gardens
Given by Specialist
Corvallis - Tips for good
gardening, starting with the
use of seeds and plants from
reputable firms, have been
given by R. Ralph Clark, Ore
gon State University exten
sion horticulture specialist.
In addition to furnishing
the gardener with healthy
stock, commercial dealers are
also available for advice and
assistance, Clark pointed out.
Local stores have plants by
the dozen in handy containers
and, for many, this may be
the best source of planting
stock.
Hardy plants can be set out
anytime now that the soil is
ready, but tender crops like
tomatoes should wait until the
danger of frost is past and the
soil is warm enough not to in
terrupt their growth, he cau
tioned. Clark advises gardeners
who raise their own plants to
use clean, light soil. To help
prevent damping off, seeds
should be lightly dusted with
arasan before coving them
lightly with screen spaghnum
moss, perlite or vermiculite.
By using moderately moist
soil, dampening the planted
container lightly and then
covering with damp newspa
per or glass until the plants
come up, the gardener can
keep the moisture up in the
planter, he continued.
Young plants should be
spotted out in a two by two
inch space in flats of soil
three inches deep as soon as
the first leaf is large enough
to make this possible. A pen
cil makes a good dibble to use
In spotting out young plants,
Clark noted.
Plants should be sprinkled
lightly after transplanting and
shaded for a day or two with
a single thickness of newspa
per over the flats. The soil
should be kept moderately
moist.
A soil mix of one-third
loam, one-third sand Bnd one
third peat or leaf mold could
be advantageous for young
plants. This should be screen
ed through a quarter-inch
hardware cloth to remove
coarse material, he stressed.

Washington Group
Opposes Proposed
Railroad Merger
St. Paul, Minn. -IITD- If four mond S. Fountain, supervisor
wesern railroads are permit
ted to go through with their
proposed merger, it would
seriously limit rail competi
tion in Washington, the Inter
stale Commerce Commission
was told Wednesday.
Gilbert J. Parr, of Washing
ton, D. C, urged the ICC to
turn down the merger request
of the Northern Pacific, Great
Northern, Burlington and Spo
kane, Portland & Seattle rail
roads.
The merger. Parr said, "will
result in a severe curtailment,
and in some instances a com
plete elimination of competi
tion between rail carriers."
Diversion of traffic
In addition, Parr contended
that the plan would "result in
the diversion of considerable
traffic from the lines of the
Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul
and Pacific Railroad."

of accounting for the Wash-
ington utilities and Transpor
tation Commission, in protest
ing the merger on behalf of
the state.
Fountain presented three
documents which he said in
dicated that the Northern Pa
cific, Great Northern and Bur
lington lines compared favor
ably with most of the nation's
other major rail lines in
terms of a series of Indicators
of financial standing.
Fountain implied that his
figures showed that the lines
did not need to merge.
Merged Mileage Noted
Parr said if tile plan was ap
proved tile merged line would
operate 3,606 miles in Wash
ington "and the Milwaukee,
the only other competitor
which has a direct single-line
transcontinental route, would
operate only 1,063 miles.
"Under present conditions,
there is competition between
the three applicant lines, as
well as the Milwaukee. Under
the proposed merger, there
would be only one competitor
. . , which would be pitted
against combined operations
of three carriers with mileages
about three and one-half times
those of the Milwaukee," he
said.

was set Jan. 20, 1054, at
Rogers Pass, Mont, north of
Ycllowston Park, when the
mercury fell to 70 degrees be
low zero.
