"Give us the ambassador, give us the ambassador," shouted the throng in a de mand to speak to the new U. S envoy to Moscow, Foy D. Kohler. But Kohler, who was out on a call at the time, returned to his residence in stead of the embassy. An embassy source said that apart from the broken windows, the only other dam age was "one or two ink spots on (he building and a few scratches on cars parked in front of the embassy." An estimated 400 soldiers and militiamen (police) watch ed over the crowd which ap peared to be in a festive mood as it gathered in bright au tumn sunshine. The demon strators seemed to be acting under centrally organized control. U. S. Pickets Washington (UPP- More lhan 700 pickets jammed side walks in front of the White House Saturday to praise or protest President Kennedy's Cuban policy. Two incidents marred the otherwise orderly demonstra tions.

The moonlet, dubbed Ex plorer XV, was hurled into orbit at a speed of 15,000 miles per hour by a three stage Delta rocket launched at 7:15 p.m. (EDT). Radio information indicated Explorer XV was circling earth once every five and one fourth hours, ranging in alti tude from 195 miles to 10.950 miies above earth.

Radiation job to study the man-made belts of radiation that pose a threat to space exploration, both manned and unmanned in the future. The satellite's attention was focused on at least two and possibly more bands of deadly radiation which now girdle the globe as the result of var ious U.S. and Soviet high-alti tude tests. The biggest and most in tense of these was put up in advertently by the United States with a nuclear blast over Johnston island in the Pacific ocean last July 9. The explosion, equal to 1.4 million tons of tnt. spread ra diation over tens of thousands of miles of space.

The announcement was made by Assistant Secretary of Defense Arthur Sylvester, who read a McNamara state ment saying the Cuban situa tion "requires we be prepared for any eventuality." Sylvester made public Mc namara's decision after the White House had announced the contents of a letter sent by President Kennedy to Rus sian Premier Nikita Khrush chev saying he was willing to ncgoiialo on the Cuban crisis if Soviet missile bases are withdrawn from Cuba. The Defense Department al ready had announced that a reconnaissance plane was missing after a sortie over Cuba. The pilot, listed as "miss-; tng, was identified as Ma), i Hudoif Anderson Jr., 35, of ' Greenville, S.C, Fired Upon The Defense Department did not say his plane was shot down, although, it did say that reconnaissance planes were fired upon. A short while later came the Pentagon announcement that "today, U.S. unarmed re connaissauce aircraft, con ducting surveillance of the buildup of (he offensive weap ons secretly introduced into Cuba by the Soviet Union, were tired upon." McNamara's statement add ed: "To insure Dial Die na tions of the Western hemi sphere continue to be Inform ed of the slalus of the threat fo their security, it is essen tial that such reconnaissance flights continue. The possibili ty of further attack on our aircraft and the continued buildup of ottensive weapons in Cuba require that we be prepared for any evcntiialily. "Therefore, tonight, acting under the authority granted mc by executive order 11058, Dated Oct. 23, 196'2, I have instructed the secretary of the Air Force lo order to active duty 24 troop carrier squad rons of the Air Force reserve with their associated support units." Quite obviously troop car riers could be used to trans port military units far a strike against Cuba itself if this were io be ordered. To Continue In announcing that one air craft conducting surveillance operations over Cuba was missing, the Defense Depart ment said thai these missions will continue. The statement also said that "appropriate measures will be taken" In protect the planes and insure their effectiveness. The Cubans themselves had said during the day that anti aircraft batteries "drove oil unidentified warpJanes" over Western Cuba. This is the sec tion where the Russian mis sile bases arc located. Cuban Premier Fidel Cas- i tr0 then declared that his rmmtrvS euns would ooen tin - " - on any plane that violated Cuban air space. 51,120 Boxes of BartleKs USDA Will Buy Medford Pears A total of 51,!2i boxes 1I j ooxes ot aartteu or oj car 'surplus narucu pvws uiciua Bartlett pears has been pur- from the Oregon and "Wash-jed " offer to buy on a bid hascd from the Medford ana Ashland area under the fed- 5 cral school lunch program, ac I cording to a telegram from i Scn.
