Quizzed about the matter were retired Navy Adm. J. D. Small, left, who headed the Army-Navy Munitions board from 1950 to 1953, and H. C. Maull Jr., former director of purchasing for the Gen eral Services Administration. (UPI) Attendance a! Seattle World's Fair Running Above Forecasts B 5 Seattle, Wash. -jVPIi- When a small boy tumbled into a fountain at the Seattle World's fair recently, his father reached out to grab him - and fell in himself. "Who do I sue?'' he splut tered indignantly. Century 21 officials moved in swiftly, provided dry clothes for father and son and a free lunch at Club 21, the exclusive night club on the fairgrounds. Dad was pla cated and another small crisis was averted. As the fair passed the half way mark last week end, the incident dramatized I'.e h p py ending that is shaping f.) after a beginning that was marked by tragedy and mis takes caused by "too much planning." Average 60,000 Daily Some 4.5 million persons -an average of 60,000 or more a day - visited the space age exposition during its first 92 days. This was a quarter of a million more than pre-open-ing forecasts. This booming attendance has created the biggest com plaint of fairgocrs - the long lines at such popular exhibits as the space needle, science pavilion, worldo'-tomorrow theme show and the Ford ex hibit. Quipped Bub Hope: "I got in one line and when I finally got to the end of it, I was standing at the Boeing pay window (nine miles away)." But Joe Candy, president of the fair, said this just goes to prove that it's a fine show Fatal Plane Crash On the day that Century 21 opened last spring, a Navy jet fighter participating in opening ceremonies crashed into a Seattle home after the pilot bailed out. An elderly couple was killed, casting pall over the occasion. Soon afier the fair opened it was discovered that the management hid needlessly spent $300,000 for a 5,000-car parking lot two miles from the fairgrounds that would use shuttle buses. "Thirty days before the fair opened we couldn't count more than 4.100 parking spaces near the fairgrounds," Gandy said. "How were we to know private individuals would come along, bulldoze old buildings away and build Milk Producers Urge Marketing Pools in Oregon Snlcm-iUPI) - Oregon Milk Producers, one of the biggest producer groups in the state, said Monday it has proposed I a big step toward market and tJ Nevada Man Killed In Astoria Apartment Astoria - fl'PII Philip Wil liams, 52, Las Vegas, Nov., was slabbed to death in an apartment here Monday.

We had 13.000 parking spaces by opening day." Today the lot two miles from the fairground has no cars, but it's not going un used. It currently eerves as a blimp moorage. One problem that failed to materialize was housing. In fact, the fair is being sued by at least two operators who claimed that promised busi ness did not materialize. One of these companies went bankrupt and couldn't return $95,000 in deposits paid on house trailer rentals. The fair came to the rescue and refunded the money. The monorail from down town Seattle pumps up to 10, 000 persons an hour into the fairground. While long lines appear at the space needle and other popular exhibits, many fine foreign attractions can be viewed without delay. The visitor can see almost anything - square br.lloons, a million silver dollars, an art exhibit that looks like a wrecked auto, Japanese wom en who dive for pearls, quick draw stuntmen, end an "adults only" puppet show (the dialogue is too risque for youngsters). Youngsters come into their own In a special section of the science pavilion. When it first opened, adults swarm ed to the children's area, which was more easily under stood than other areas of tha exhibit. As a result, children couldn't get near the section. Now guards keep out ill per sons over 16 seeking to play the "shooting - the m o o n'' game. One visitor from Montana commented, "It's a pretty fine show but where's tha livestock?" He evidently had overlook ed the star attraction at ona night club, a singing pig. ed to identify the woman.

Phone 772-6428 OMP; manager, said it is a volun tary, self help program of milk market pools and would comprise a master pool. i Would Pad Sales ! Any number of producers; or producer groups could j form a pool. Participants would pool their sales of class j 1 milk which is the bottle! and can trade and the mas- ' tcr pool would equalize total market sales according to quotas. This, Shoup said, would: -Put dealers on an equal basis in obtaining milk. ! -Stimulate and promote the balance of supply and do- mand. -Dicourage producers from cutting into each other's mar- kets. -Halt distributors from playing producers off on one another. Averts Instability Shoup said the proposal "af fords the producers and the industry enough soladarity and unity to avert any type of market instability." The temporary producer milk stabilization act, which j OMP pressed for in the 1S161 j legislature, expires Dec. 31. 1 Among other things, it guaran-1 tees producers a minimum i price for their milk from dis-, trihutors. The law ended the milk price war chaos in the spring of 11)61 but the industry thus far has failed to agree on a solution. Contract Signed Shoup said several produc ers in the Willamette Valley have already signed contracts in the pool plan. He added the proposal is being submit ted statewide through a series of regional meetings. The master pool would be : run by a board composed of cross-section of producers. Shoup said the plan Is pat terned after the only milk market pool now operating in the state in the Eugene area.

It all began Sunday after ; a report reached here that a i pair of brothers in Anderson, Ind., claimed a record for toss ing on ice cube back and forth ' 74:t limes before it melted. The contest took hold here, and a radio station supplied officials for a local contest. The record changed hands four times Sunday afternoon before teen-agers Lonnie Blof- skv and Scott Rice wound up with a new '.'record". The of ficials agreed that the two tossed a "standard size" ire cube between them 2.4U0 times hefore it melted. At least, it's probably an Oregon record, and perhaps a national one. A pair of young men on Prince Kdward Island claim they tossed a cube 2,550 tunes before it melted 25 minutes later.
