In the Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
In Washington, President
Kennedy calls on the congress
to EXTEND A HELPING
HAND to the young people of
America. He said they are
caught in cross currents
which "hold great danger as
well as great promise."
As a means to this end, he
asked for expansion of the
Peace Corps whose basic
job is to provide assistance
by American young people to
the backward nations of the
world.
He wants more funds with
which to put more American
young people to work in more
foreign countries.
IN ADDITION, he called for
the creation of three other
"corps" to help the nation's
youth and let youth HELP
THE NATION. Briefly, these
new corps would be:
1. A National Service
Corps, starting off with 100 to
200 volunteers and working
up to perhaps as many as
5,000. The pay would be S6
to $8 a day. It would be open
to anyone from 18 up, and it
would be expected that most
of the volunteers would be in
the 25-35 age bracket. Pre
sumably its members would
be used anywhere in the U.S.,
at the discretion of the Presi
dent. 2. A Youth Conservation
Corps. It would be put up to
15,000 boys to work in its first
year in the nation's forests
and parks, at tasks that would
give useful training for later
job hunting. Its goal even
tually would be 60,000 volun
teers. 3. A Community Projects
Service Corps. It would put
youngsters of both sexes to
work on service projects that
would give useful job exper
ience such as helping out in
hospitals, schools, parks and
"settlement houses." Its ex
penses would be split equally
between the nation and the
community involved.
country. It fills the papers, It
clogs the air waves. Even the
slick-paper magazines are full
of it.
A lot of it arises out of the
fact that the modern gadget
world provides almost NONE
of the jobs (in the house and
around the home) that an
earlier day kept American
youth too busy to have much
time left for devilment. May
be the time is approaching
when government will have
to provide the work and the
DISCIPLINE that the Amer
ican home formerly provided.
It isn't a pleasant prospect,
but it may be a prospect that
we will have to consider.
LET'S jump now from Wash
ington to Salem, where
George Annala, manager of
Oregon Tax Research and a
former member of the Oregon
legislature, proposes to the
education subcommittee of the
joint ways and means com
mittee a program that calls
for state colleges and univer
sities to operate on a school
year of four 12-week terms.
His plan would extend classes
through Saturday, and attend
ance as assigned would be
mandatory.
He told the joint ways and
means committee that his pro
posal would mean an increase
of 68 per cent in classroom
usage and would eliminate
the need for new classrooms
and dormitories requested by
the governor.
He added: "If this proposal
were adopted, higher educa
tion wouldn't need a dime of
the proposed $45 million bond
issue for new buildings."
T ET'S not be too cynical
at least at the start.
There's plenty of what we
call JUVENILE trouble in our
GIVE the Gift you

PERSONALLY, I can't help
thinking he has something.
We are reaching the time
when we're going to have to
do a lot of looking at our hole
cards. Taxes are getting so
high meaning that they are
taking so large a slice out of
the taxpayer's total earn
ings that we can no longer af
ford reckless waste of public
money.
And
Assuming that much of our
juvenile trouble springs from
the rule that "Satin will find
some work for idle hands to
do" . . . and recognizing that
the home no longer provides
the jobs it used to provide . . .
this might be the time to be
gin to consider keeping the
younger generation busier in
school.

Scientists Devise
Theory of Meteor
As Start of Life
Delos smith
By DELOS SMITH
UPI Science Editor
New York - (UPI) - Two sci
entists have devised a new an
swer to that most intriguing
and baffling
of all scientif
ic questions --how
did life
start? A king
sized meteor
got life going,
) theorized Drs.
' J. J. Gilvarry
.and A. R
j Hochstim. It
came rocket
ing out of space at sensational
speed and banged into the
primitive earth. From the re
sultant heat and enormous ex
plosions came eventual life.
Life was the result because
the heat created the organic
compounds which arc its basis
and the explosion brought
them down out of the atmos
phere into the sea, the scien
tists reasoned, using physical
knowledge and refined mathe
matical calculations.
Theirs was a scientific ach
ievement since solid theories
on the origin of life are hard
to come by. Scientists gener
ally agree life first appeared
in the season, but how organic
chemicals got into the sea and
how they came together to
form primitive life are the
prime questions.
Free' Energy Credited
11 is logical to suppose some
form of "free" energy would
have been needed. The exist
ing theory, which Gilvarry
and Hochstim wanted to re
place, holds this "free ener
gy came from lightning and
ultra-violet radiations of the
sun. It worked in an atmos
phere which was in a state of
chemical flux and produced
the organic chemicals.
Gilvarry and Hochstim ob
jected to this theory because
it provides no physical pro
gress by which the cheYnicals
could have gotten out of the
atmosphere into the sea. Their
theory covered both the
source of the "free" energy
and how the chemical trans
mutations got down out of the
atmosphere in large and
workable amounts.
The energy came from the
enormous heat in the shock
waves of a meteor Hie size of
a small planet traveling at
hypersonic speed. This heat
was sufficient to creat organic
chemical compounds from the
elements in the atmosphere.
Before these compounds
could revert, there came the
impact of the meteor into the
sea.
This impact sent a hollow
column of water into the at
mosphere, like the one an
atomic bomb explosion cre
ates. This, they said, formed a
dome-shaped cloud of water
! droplets high about the sea.
Compound! Engulfed
This steamy hot water en
gulfed the complex organic
compounds forming in the
wake of the meteor and pre
vented them from reverting.
And when it coolrd enough
to fall back into the sea, it
look the orzanic compounds
with it.
The scientists offered calcu
lations to show the yield in
)
organic compounds of such a
meteor collision with the
earth would be enormous,
quite enough to provide the
wherewithal for the establish
ment of life in the sea. They
also assumed meteor crashes
against the earth were fre
quent billions of years ago
when our planetary system
was young.
Gilvarry is the author of
the theory that the present
ocean basins were carved out
of the earth by meteor explo
sions. He works in the space
science laboratory of General
Dynamics, San Diego. Hoch
stim works in the institute
for defense analyses, Washington.
Freed Archbishop
Observes Birthday
Rome - (UPI) - Archbishop
Josyf Slipyi, recently released
after 18 years of imprison
ment in the Soviet Union,
celebrated his 71st birthday
Sunday at a public mass that
brought tears to his eyes.
Msgr. Slipyi, leader of the
Eastern Rite Catholics in the
Ukraine, said a public mass
at the Abbey of San Nilo near
Rome. It was his first public
appearance since he arrived
here eight days ago.
Peasants and priests alike
rushed to kiss his hand, and
the archbishop broke into
tears.
Vatican sources said the
archbishop was "horribly tor
tured" while in a Siberian
slave labor camp.
