OREGON Senate Likely To Concur in Defense Appropriations Bill THURSDAY, JUNE 17. 1U3 Washington ?. d'Pli The Senate appears likely to con cur in all but a few details to the $47 billion defense appro priations bill passed by the House. By a 410-1 vote Wednesday, the House approved the bill which accounts for almost half of the entire $98 8 bil lion federal budget for the fiscal year beginning Mon day. Senate sources said the bill, trimmed by about $1.9 billion from the President's request, was almost in line with the general views ex pressed by the Senate mili tary appropriations subcommittee. The subcommittee already is at work on the Senate ver sion. But Senate action is not expected to come until after the fiscal year begins. Final passage of the bill after the start of the year is not un common, and Congress al ready has given the Defense Department authority to Nuclear Test Ban Said Up To West Moscow - (I'M - Russia indi cated today that agreement at the Moscow nuclear - test talks will depend entirely on what the United States and Britain propose. The Communist organ Prav da indicated the Kremlin has nothing new to offer, Pravda said also the Soviet Union considers a net of "au tomatic control stations" suf ficient to police a ban on underground tests. The question whether Mos cow has withdrawn its offer of two to three annual on-site inspections was left open. "Now it is up to the West and only the West," declared Pravda commentator, Yuri Zhukov, in discussing the ne gotiations scheduled to begin here in mid-July. spend at current levels until the new budget is approved. One of the changes the Senate is likely to make in the House version is in funds .for the controversial RS70 strike plane. The Senate might well act to speed work on the plane, although the House went along with De fense Secretary Robert S. Mc Namara in all but writing off the 2,000-mile-an-hour bomb er. All U.S. bomber production stopped last year, and Defense Department critics have ques tioned abandoning the man ned bomber to rely solely on missiles. The bill's manager. Rep. George H. Mahon (D-Tex.) told the House, however, that other possible supersonic bombers were under study. He said Congress probably would be asked for money next year to build one final type manned strategic air craft for addition to the bomb er fleet now dominated by the obsolescent B52. The lone dissenter to House passage was Rep. Thomas B. Curtis (R-Mo.) who said he had no real objection to the bill but cast his "no" vote to call attention to "the serious ness of deficit financing." "We haven't got the money," he said. Son of Local Woman Dies in Nebraska Mrs. Amelia Miller, 112 Laurel St., Medford, received word recently that hen son, Floyd Miller, 54, had died of a heart attack in Omaha, Nebr.

That's what Oleg Popov, one of the nation's world fa mous clowns, did 10 years ago and now he Is one of the most honored graduates of the Moscow Circus school. The fame of this modest looking, yellow brick school has spread far and wide and foreigners - mostly from Asia and Africa - have been com ing to Moscow to learn cas cading, tumbling, Juggling and walking on a tight rope. It's serious work. And the school, which has a student body of 400 and a faculty of 58, has to turn away many would-be performers. Purpose Our purpose It to turn out cadres (personnel) tor the circus and the variety thea ter," said Director Alexander Voloshin, using a typically Soviet turn of phrase. "As a matter of tact, since the school was established in 1828 it has turned out soma 2,000 performers, about 63 to 70 per cent of the nation s circus and variety artists. Some people said a circus wouldn't succeed in those years, but it did." The school now accepts stu dents of all ages - from tots to adults. The children come for a seven-year course, and the adults from three to four years. Many of the children are sons and daughters of per formers, and all have to study reading and writing and 'rith matic as well as the circus ring. 'I decided I want to be an animal trainer when I grow up, said one little boy with. a crew-cut and a smile, "be cause I liked the trainers I saw when I went to the circus." A 10-year-old girl in pig tails and a severe brown school uniform smiled sheep ishly and said "I Just got in terested in being an aerial acrobat by looking at the tel evision." Rafrnher Course AJax Bukana, 42, a per former from Ghana, is taking a one-year refresher course at the request of Ghana Presi dent Kwame Nkrumah before becoming head of his nation al circus. The two -year -old school building which now houses the school is built around a circular arena and a rectangu lar gymnasium. It cost $555,- 000 to build. On a typical day the circu lar ring Is always busy with students turning circles tn the air, balancing on somebody's shoulders, being thrown Into the air in difficult contortions, Or standing upside down on the end of someone s out stretched arm. The school's graduates can look forward to some securi ty in their careers. Voloshin said they get jobs In variety groups or in the 30-odd circuses throughout the Soviet union.
