ESSENTIALS FOR REFUCEES-RefuRecs from Communist
China are shown in the courtyard of Casa Ricci, run by Fa
ther Luis Ruiz, a Jesuit priest, at Macao, as they are given
meal tickets and other essentials such as toothbrushes and
wash cloths. The money required to run the refugee cen
ter is apparently provided by a number of charitable organ
izations, though nobody in Macao knows just where it comes
from. (UPI)

walk of the water tower 81

Three Com Down
So far, three of the origins!
l:i ha.ve cracked unr!er the
strain of thirst and hunger.
One came down Thursday and
two the previous day.
William Zicfle, 21, gave up
against the mounting odds in
mid-afternoon Thursday and
climber down a ladder into
the waiting arms of guards.
Ziefle, serving 9 months to 2
years for armed robbery,
would have served his mini
mum term on July 30.
He was rushed to the pris
on hospital where authorities
said he was suffering from de
hydration.
The two who gave up Wed-
"l nesday, James J. Fletcher, 25,
and Alfred Nardi Jr., left the
hospital Thursday. They were
sent to the prison's disciplin
ary section, which was the
cause of the protest demon
stration. 'Hole' Defended
Although the scctfcn Is
known to the inmates as "the
hole," Warden James F. Ma
roney said it is far from that.
He said prisoners confined
ihere receive regular meals
but lose their privileges such
as movies and television.
Robert Payne, 29, was be
ing transferred from the hos
pital back to the disciplinary
cellblock Monday when he
broke away from his guards
and made for the tower.
When he reached the cat
walk, he shouted down to
newsmen that he Would stay
there until an investigation
was made of the "inhuman
and brutal" treatment in
mates underwent

i Request Dropped
Washington - (UNI - Chief
Hearing Examiner James D.
Cunningham of the Federal
Communications Commission
Thursday granted a petition
by Willamette - Land Televi
sion, Inc. for dismissal of its
application for a new station
to operate on Channel 3, Sa
lem, Ore.
The action is final except in
unusual cases. Cunningham
dismissed the aplication with
prejudice, however, which
meant that the firm could not
apply again for a license to
operate in that area for one
year.
A Bug's Brain Outdoes
Our Fastest Computer
We could hardly credit it
With having a brain at all; it's
merely a bump, or an enlarge
ment in a nerve, yet in the
body of a very lowly creature
is a computer that out-computes
the best man ever made;
and all in the brain of a bug.
In the bug's body, its com
puter is ultra-high-speed, can
make accurate decisions in a
fraction of the time and with
out a single electronic tube,
wheel, spool, or switch. In
comparison with our fastest
computer, the b u g - b r a i n
makes ours pitifully slow, and
actually inefficient. We're not
even playing in the same
league.
Instant Decision
To illustrate the sluggish
ness of any man-made com
puter, compare it with the
mote-sized brain of the drag
onfly. This winged insect, fly
ing at 30 miles an hour, sees
another airborne bug angling
across Ills bow; maybe only a
couple of inches ahead of his
nose. The computer-brain of
the dragonfly instantly makes
a series of decisions. He must
appraise the size of the prey;
how fast it is traveling in the
angle of its flight; must at the
same time judge the wind
speed, whether or not the
prey will go up, down, or to
either side.
Given the same set of de
cisions to make, the man-
made computer could come up
with the answers in a couple
of seconds, provided the tubes
were all warmed up, all the
wheels adequately oiled, and
all the proper buttons pressed.
The insect-computer made all
the necessary calculations in
about one-thirtieth of a sec
ond; in less time actually,
than it took the man to push
the first button.
Many Times a Day
And too, some dragonflies
must be a little brighter than
others; some could arrive at
the correct answers much
faster. Given the same prob
lems, and the same time-lapse.
the m an-made computer .
would strip its gears, blow its i
tubes, and stutter to a me- j
chanical-breakdown. And the 1
bug makes its complicated I
calculations a thousand times j
a day.
Not only does the bug have j
to make rapid calculations, j
but it must also put the infor- i
mation inlo action; its re
flexes must be as fast as its :
computations. Snap-judgments i
are imperative to the survival
of a living creature. To eat, or
to escape its enemies, it must j
always be ready to make I
counter adjustments to fit the
occasion; its reactions must be i
as instantaneous as its deci
sion to act.
Lima, Peru UPI The army
moved Thursday night to
block the presidential chances
of Victor R.Haya de la Torre,
government'backed winner of
an indecisive victory in the
June 10 election.
An army announcement
charged "grave irregularities"
in the voting in seven prov
inces - all Haya strongholds
and it appeared that military
leaders might try to nullify
the election.
Intervention Hailed
Fernando Belaunde Terry,
the army - backed candidate
nosed out by Haya in the elec
tion, hailed the military inter
vention. Ex-President Manuel
Odria, who placed third in the
election, sided with Haya.
With only 1,000 votes re
maining to be counted, offi
cial returns showed that Haya
won the election, with 557,
524 votes to 543,322 for Be
launde and 481,039 for Odria.
Four splinter candidates,
none of whom received as
many as 50,000 votes, soaked
up enough of the total to pre
vent any of the front-runners
from receiving the 33.33 per
cent of the vote needed for de
cisive victory. Haya received
only 32.97 per cent of the
total.
Congress To Choose
That throws the election
into the new Congress, which
is to meet July 28 to choose
a president from among the
three front-runners in the
election.
Political circles speculated
London -HOT- Stanley Gaw
ley, who calls himself a
"scrounger," was disappoint
ed today because he was
finisd fcnd not jailed for bad
driviag. "I was hoping for a
weei or so in prison," he
saii, I think 1 11 have
t ."
that Haya, rather than risk a
showdown with the army,
would throw his support, to
Odria. Sujiorters of the two
men will have a majority in
the new Congress. x
PLEDGES $150,000
New York -iUPH- An initial
pledge of $150,008 toward
the construction of a new
theater at Columbia Univer
sity was announced Thurs
day in behalf of composer
Richard Rodgers at a lum.li
given in honor of his 60th
birthday. The money will
come from the R o d gen
and Hammerstein Founda
tion formed several years ago
by the composer and his lata
collaborator, Oscar Hammerstein.
