Tens of milliqns of Ameri 'cans and scientific groups ' from a half dozen countries 'will observe the phenomenon which will come near to matching the celebrated "North American eclipse of 1930. There will not be another eclipse of the sun visible in any part of the United States until 1970. And not until 2017 "will a solar eclipse be visible to so many Americans as this month. Those living in a 60-mile- wide path stretching from Anchorage, Alaska, across . Canada's Yukon, Northwest Territories, S a s k a tchewan, ' Manitoba, Ontario, and Que- j ' 4 bee to Bar Harbor, Me., will see the dark mass of the moon ? completely blot out the. sun. In the blackout path, the on ' ; ly light left will be a sickly -'yellow corona around the moon, equal in intensity to a ' half-moon's glow. Stars will twinkle in the momentary,' un--" natural night, birds will cease ' to twitter, and the air will cool and fill with eerie rip pling shadows. - See Partial Eclipse . Those living outside the belt of totality will see a partial eclipse, ranging from 92 per cent of total in Boston to 26 c per cent in Los Angeles. But record crowds are expected to turn out from coast to coast "J ' to see the heavenly spectacle, ; which fortunately falls on a 5 summer Saturday between . f .' late morning on the West f ' Coast and late afternoon on the East Coast. Maine and Quebec, the most :; densely populated area in the .'J blackout path, are girding thertiselves for a tremendous influx of visitors bent on see- ing the total eclipse. The i -'Maine Department of Eco ? nomic Development estimates '1 that more than 200,000 per ? sons from other parts of - Maine and out-of-state will de i . scend on central Maine for j the two hour performance, cli " ' maxed by two minutes -of t darkness between 5:42 p.m., (EDT) and 5:44 p.m. I The American Museum- i - Hayden Planetarium warns I : eclipse watchers to protect ! . their eyes against the harm I ful solar infra-red rays by ! looking through two thick : v' ! ...

Tampering with brakes and steering mechanisms is a fac tor, in from two to five per cent of all moving vehicle col lisions resulting in fatalities. Another one to three per cent may actually be planned col lisions, usually of a heavy car into the left front section of a lighter car. The Newsletter said that premeditated-and unpunished vehicular murders might to tal 3,200 annually. Some experts also believe that "automurdcr" is used by racists to intimidate Negroes in the South. A Mississippi member of the President's Advisory Commis sion on Civil Rights claims that "every time there's pub licized civil rights activity either here or in neighboring states, there's a sharp rise in the number of Negro pedestri ans hit by cars on the highway -ordinarily a particularly rare kind of accident in this part of the world." By Jimmy Hatfo! near Fairbanks especially timed and located to coincide with the celestial show. Other scientific groups tak ing ground observations with instruments and camera will be the Hayden Planetarium expedition in Quebec, the Harvard Observatory in Maine, Dutch and German ex peditions near Great Slave Lake in the Northwest Terri tories, the University of Illi nois in Manitoba and Ontario, and the National Research Council of Canada. Astrono mers from the Dominion Ob servatory, Ottawa, will take observations from aircraft. The scientists will be check ing and rechecking various aspects of eclipses, including fluctuations of bright n e s s, polarization of light in the outer corona, variances of geomagnetic and earth cur rents, radio characteristics of the ionoshere and deflection of starlight by the gravitational pull of the sun. The latter, verified during previous eclipses, is a confirmation of Einstein's theory of relativity. Eventually, scientists ex pect to observe eclipses from space vehicles that will be propelled beyond the earth's contorting atmosphere for more perfect measurements and photographs. Philomath Couple To Run Rollarena - Mr. and Mrs. Earl Hardy, Philomath, will take over the management of the Jackson County Rollarena sometime in mid-July, according to infor mation from Hardy. Hardy said that Mr. and Mrs. Ray Bennett, who have managed the facility, are go ing to a large rink at San Mateo, Calif. The Hardys plan to give instruction as well as man age. Hardy reported that both group and private lessons will be offered. The couple has had 11 years of teaching and managing in roller skating and have coach ed state and regional compe tition winners in the Corvallis and Salem areas.

"We can do no less than test our own dedication and especially our own practices against the standard we honor and celebrate every Fourth of July," said Sen. Morse.

MEDFORD. ing civil rights battle in Con gress, Morse said "in our legis lative halls you will still hear it said that colored Americans are by nature inferior and un equal to white Americans. That is not the message of the Declaration of Independ ence. It tells us that all men are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights, including life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. These are not rights given by government or by individ uals." Colored Citiseni Rebuffed The notion of white suprem acy still plagues colored citi zens who want only to exer cise those rights but are re buffed and often oppressed by those who cling fearfully, even desperately, to their fan tasy of racial superiority. When Sen. Morse referred to legislators who preach white supremacy, he was lev eling blame where it belongs for it was the white politi cians of the South who were largely responsible for kill ing the dream of the Fourth of July for many other Ameri cans. Lillian Smith, the magnifi cently gifted Southern author, says in her book "Killers of the Dream" that had the poor whites been let alone by the politicians things might have been better. "But the politicians - as is true today all over the world -needed the rural people and used them as ruthlessly as Ne groes were used when they were needed. They needed to play voter against voter and Pall oatu ml So smooth, so satisfying, so downright smokeable You can light either end I Compare all three!

Xs) NEW ROTOR SYSTEM With the award of a first-phase contract for design study of a tip turbojet rotor system, Hlller Aircraft of Palo Alto, Calif., sees the economic feasi bility of giant helicopters like these models. With the power source removed from the fuselage and placed at the tips of the rotor blades "where power is required", complex transmissions and shafting are eliminated with resulting in crease in performance and lower cost of operation. Greater design freedom than the conventional helicopters would yield flying crane types (top) and transport configurations (bot tom) for both military and civilian use.

To be the 'best people on the earth' with the best 'system' of making a living, because your sallow skin was white and you were 'Anglo-Saxon,' made you for get that you were eaten up with malaria and hookworm; made you forget that you lived in a shanty and ate pot likker and corn bread, and worked long hours for noth ing. Most Precious Possession "Nobody could take away from you this whiteness that made you and your way of life 'superior.' They could take your house, your job, your fun; they could steal your wages, keep you from acquiring knowledge; they could take your vote or cheat you out of it; they could by arousing your anxieties make you impotent; but they could not strip your white skin off of you. It became the poor white's most precious posses sion, a 'charm' staving off ut ter dissolution. . . ; and though they did nothing about starved minds and bodies, nothing about health and jobs, demagogues did keep their starved spirits alive here on earth with the drug of white supremacy and Negro-hate which the revivalists never named as 'sins.'
