Today's an nouncement said 'ie opening date had been moved to Sept. 8. The closing date was not announced. At least one additional ses sion is expected to be required to complete the council's work, but no date was im mediately set. The Pope twice has speed ed council work by amending regulations which he had issued. He also has stepped In to cut off debate on a con troversial theological item although "liberal" cou :il fathers who opposed 'it had barely failed to win the re quired two-thirds majori'. . Today's announcement said Pope John ordered the post ponement "in response to the wishes of many council fath ers, above all those who live in distant countries." lie also look Into account "reasons of a pastoral character," presum ably meaning the need not to keep bishops from their dio cees too long.

Communist border guards fired bullets and flares presumably to stop the escape of others. The escape routes were not disclosed. It raised to 21 the number of known escapers since Saturday, an unusually large exodus. West Berlin police reported four shots were fired, coupled with shouts of "stop, come back on the French sector Frohnau District border at 1 a.m. It was not known whether refugees were wounded in the shooting or arrested because observation was impossible in dense fog. Twenty minutes earlier Communist guards fired two rounds from a submachine gun and one flare on the French sector's Wedding Dis trict border. An hour before midnight a shot and five flares were shot in the American sector's Neu koclln District border. On Nov. 27, 1958, Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev told the Western Allies to get out of West Berlin within six months. The fourth anniversary of that declaration passed today with the Americans, British and French troops still en trenched in their West Berlin outpost, 110 miles deep in Communist territory. The anniversary was marked only by continued Western determination, under lined by the tough American stand on Cuba, to protect this city in the future as they have in the past. By chance, Gen. Lyman L. Lcmnitzer, commander of U.S. forces in Europe, was in Ber lin for the anniversary. He came here Monday irom nis Paris headquarters on a 24- hour visit to "determine the needs" of the 6,500-man U.S. garrison. West Berlin Mayor Willy Brandt told Lcmnitzer Mon day at a meeting at City Hall, "on the basis of Western guar antees and our people's de termination we will be able to survive." The anniversary was not marked by any formal observ ance. It passed almost un noticed. This in Itself was con sidered a sign that the appre hension that gripped the city four years ago has faded. 4-H News Teen Council The meeting of the Jackson County 4-H Teen Council was held recently at the fair grounds.

On Oct. 10, (he men-including one American - set sail for the West Indies in the "Nina," a replica of the small est of three ships Columbus took on his voyage in 1492. They hoped to make the trip in the 26 days it took Columbus. But they loaded provisions for up to 45 days, in case of trouble. That was 47 days ago. The tiny 39-foot caravel was last seen on Oct. 12, the day after it left Las Palmas, barely out of sight of land 25 miles west of here. Since then, there has been no sign of the little craft with its ancient square sails. The United States Coast Guard is scouring the general area off the Virgin Islands where the "Nina II" should be if it is still afloat. Heavy storms whipped the area last week. ' The courage of the eight men of the "Nina II" coin pared with that of the 18 un der Vicente Yanez Pinson who sailed with Columbus and were the first of the expedi tion to sight the West Indies. Under Spanish navy Lt. Carlos Etayo, the modern voy agers ignored the advantages of modern sailing to put out a ship which carried no instruments except a 15th Cen tury wooden sextant and a simple compass like those used in Columbus' day. The ship was held together by wooden pegs and had no radio, no electricity and no auxiliary motor. As nearly as possible, its trip was to dupli cate the conditions of the ex pedition of 1492. With skipper Etayo - on leave from the Spanish navy seven other crew members. They included American Robert Marx, a marine arche ologist and writer from Los Angeles; Antonio Sgaseta, a Spanish Roman Catholic priest, and Antonio Bedoya, a 69-year-old Spanish fisherman.
