Senator Denies Having Proof Of Profumo-Type Scandal WASHINGTON (UPI) - Sen. John J. Williams, R-Del., said today he has nothing to "prove or disprove" reports of a Pro-fumo-like story of a German beauty's relations with promi nent Washington figures. Williams said in a statement that the reports about activities of the West German woman, who was returned home after an FBI investigation, were not among the incidents he is to discuss before the Senate Rules Committee in a closed session Tuesday. The committee is investigat ing outside activities of Senate employes, primarily the affairs of former Senate Democratic Secretary Robert G. (Bobby) Baker. Williams referred specifically to a copyrighted story about the German woman in Sunday's J A ' '"'if ' TIMID? "Why, I was the shyest person you could ever imagine until I learned to dance at Arthur Murray's. What a difference that made in me. Now, iriends say I'm the 'life of the party'." C.L.

Williams said the story "did not originate from my office, and whether it is true or false is something for which I cannot answer and for which the writer will have to assume the full re sponsibility." He added in his statement: "There is nothing in my files which will either prove or dis prove the story nor was this one of the subjects on the agen da to be discussed at my meet ing with the Senate Rules Com mittee tomorrow." The party girl was described as the 27-year-old brunete wife of a West German army ser geant who had been assigned to the German military mission here. The woman, called a "ravish ing beauty" by an embassy spokesman, was whisked back to Germany with her husband on Aug. 21 at the urging of the FBI, which had investigated her behavior.

OPEN FRIDAY NIGHTS 'TILL 9 P.M. rin i to HOME APPLIANCE COMPANY 115 EAST MAIN-MEDFORD Operation Kept Secret To Quiet European Fears By CHALES W. CORDDRY United Press International FRANKFURT, Germany, (UPI) - The United States shipped home 1,500 combat troops on return flights of Op eration Big Lift planes but kept tne movement secret to avoid arousing Europeans' concern, it was learned today. Big Lift, which brought more than 15,000 combat troops from bases in Texas to Germany for maneuvers, caused fears here that the number of U.S. troops permanently stationed in Eu rope would be cut. Normal Rotation The 1,500-man battle group was being returned to the Unit ed States in a normal rotation move and its withdrawal had nothing to do with reducing the strength of the six U.S. di visions here. But Washington officials, cur rently seeking to counteract suspicion in Europe that U. S. combat power here may be re duced, were reported to have feared the rotation move would be misunderstood. No Announcement Allowed Strenuous efforts were made to divert attention from the Kansas outfit's return after six months' temporary duty and no announcement was allowed. Secretary of State Dean Rusk gave additional reassurances that no cuts were contemplated in U. S. strength in Europe in a speech here Sunday dedicat ing a memorial to soldier statesman Gen. George C. Mar shall. "We have six divisions in Germany," he said. "We intend to maintain these divisions here as long as there is need for them and under present cir cumstances there is no doubt that they will continue to be needed and they are backed by nuclear forces of almost un imaginable power."

In the murky underground cavern, the three miners played cards or joked with the rescue crews over a microphone low ered to them Sunday. "You poor chaps, I guess you ve got to work night shifts," one told rescue officials. A res cuer sent word that "we had the season's first frost during the nigni ana li s also pretty fog gy" "We also have some foe down here, but no frost. It's sort of cool, though," came back the reply. Entombed Since Thursday The three men. in a Docket of high pressure air that has held back the flood waters, have been entombed since 8 p.m. Thursday. The Ilseder Huette Mining Co., owners of the Mathilde Mine four miles south of here ; at Lcngede-Broistedt, said 39 or ! perhaps 40 miners died when a huge sedimentation basin burst and 19 million gallons of sludge and water poured down into the ! shafts and tunnels. Seventy-nine of the 129 men : below escaped during the first I few hours, scrambling up fast j flooding ventilation tunnels and ! climbing rope ladders to the sur face. Rescue workers Friday night saved another seven men in a cut-off tunnel after waters re ceded. A rescue team reached the marooned men on a raft.
