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.
Police said the bill will go
to the police property clerk
pending the arrival of its
owner. If the owner doesn't
appear by the end of the year,
the cash goes to Knester.

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

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.

Portland -HTC- The Oregon
Liquor Control commission
said Wednesday lhat it may

a fifth.
The commission recently
increased the retail price of
all alcoholic beverages except
beer and wine by 15 cents a
fifih.

Sierra City, Culif.-CPIi-Alcx
Oslram. 37, of Sierra City,
was in hearty agreement to
day with the old adage that
a man's best friend i his dog.
Oslram told Undersherill

to the edge of the Yuba river
and noticed a shiny object
slicking out of the water.
It was an 8' i -ounce gold nug

Hill said the nugg". prob
