(UPI) Cabbie Could Get Exorbitant Tip c 5 New York - (UPD - Unless a mystery passenger shows up by the end of the year, an honest Bronx taxicab driver will collect a tip of more than S989 for a 45-cent ride. Henry Kncster, the cabbie, entered a Bronx police sta tion Wednesday night to turn in a $1,000 bill. Minutes be fore, he said he had driven a male passenger on a 45-cent fare. The rider handed him a bill he assumed was a $10 bill. He made change and drove off. Shortly thereafter, Knestcr discovered he had underesti mated by two the number of zeroes on the bill, and drove immediately to the station house.

Dickenson's PRIMROSE GARDENS Giant Hybrids Wide range of colors One Mile Off Highway on Old Ferry Road SHADY COVE, OREGON K Towers Would Beam Warning of Attack By DOUGLAS DILTZ Clear, Alaska-fflPIl-If the So viets launched a missile at tack against the United States today, it would come from over the Arctic, air defense commanders believe. That's because the "Polar Route" is within the closest striking distance to the heart land of the United States, they say. Rockets, armed with nu clear warheads, would come raining down on huge popu lation centers of the U.S. mainland within a few min utes. Defense commanders point out that in the Alaskan de fense frontier there is a mere 49 miles of sea separating this state and Siberia - the closest point between the United States and Russia. No Defense U.S. commanders admit there is no defense against enemy missiles at this time. The best that could be done would be to detect rockets racing across the top of the world and give the U.S. main land a 15-minute warning. The United States has de vised a defense network of three "watchtowers" across the top of the world. It is called Ballistic Missile HOW MUCH FUfJ CAN DRIVING BE ? Dmul A ROCKET AND SEE !

Early Warning System (BMEWS). Perhaps the most important of these stations is the one located here in the remote Alaskan back country - some 60 miles from Fairbanks. The temperature now ranges 50 to 60 below. This site is closest of the three "watchtowers" to Rus sia. Another is at Thule, Greenland, and the third is nearing completion at Fyling dales moor, England. Cost to U.S. taxpayers - SI billion. Advance Warning The primary job of the BMEWS is to provide advance warning of a missile attack. This station, like the others, has a scanning range of 3,000 miles or more over all the Eurasian land mass from which missiles could be launched. The BMEWS station here has three towering fixed an tennas, 400 feet long and 165 feet high, for detection. There also are tracking ra dars which follow the path of attacking rocl.cts once they are detected by the bigger antennas. The radar beams from the sites at Clear and Thule - and soon from England - form an electronic warning umbrella by fanning out across the top of the world. Would Signal Should a Soviet missile be launched, the alarm would be signaled to the North Ameri can Defense Command (NORAD) headquarters in Col orado Springs, Colo. This would give the United Slates, in terms of time, a warning of a quarter of an hour. This would be enough to send America's devastating retaliatory power, ICBM's and Strategic Air Command bomb ers, against the enemy in the early stages of conflict. The United States has an anti-missile missile, the Nike Zeus, but it is not yet operational. A Soviet missile attack, in event of a nuclear war, aI?o would come from submarines. But the main attack, military officials believe, would come from over the top of the world. "This is our most critical area," a defense commander said.
