Navy Will Continue Trying To Put Vanguard In Orbit Despite the Jupiter C as a moon launcher. WASinNGTON I four failures in five attempts, the Navy will continue trying to blast Vanguard satellites into orbit. This is the blunt answer given at the Pen'.jgon to inquiries as to why the Vanguard project isn't dropped in favor of more satellite launchings with the Army s Jupi- ler-C rocket combine. The Defense Department says its reasons for sticking with Van guards are that they are the best vehicles available when they work and that the country re quires a greater return on the mil lions invested in the program. The Navy, administering the Vanguard project for the U.S. contribution to the International Geophysical Year program, al ready has poured at least 110 mil lion dollars into development and preliminary testing. Six or seven additional Van guards wit.t fully instrumented sat ellite spheies. each costing about one million dollars, already have been made or are under construc tion. Dr . Wernher von Braun, the Army's rocket specialist, has de scribed the Vanguard as a sophis ticated rocket combination for earth orbiting satellites. In sim ple language, this means that the three-stage rocket and us special ly designed 2m-pound moon are exceedingly complicated, which is one reason why it, has been so dif ficult to make them work. But when a Vanguard rocket works, as one did in getting a tiny satellite into orbit on St. Patrick's Dav, it is far more efficient than It takes 2.200 pounds of fuel and hardware 'o orbit one pound of pay load instruments with a Jupi- ter-C rocket combine. The Van guare lifts one pound of instru ments into space with only 1,000 pounds of tuel and hardware. The X r a p e f r u i t-sized satel- ite launched by the Navy on March 17 worked so well that a nearly ideal orbit was achieved, leading scientists u prophesy a 200-year life for Us tiny satellite.

Jelferson Davis- was his name and his presidency was the Con federate States of America. The government took note in only one small way of Davis' birth June 3, 1803, in Todd County. Ky. A modest exhibit of his writings and papers was put on display at the Library ot congress. It won't be that way for another president next year when the ses- quicentennial of Abraham Lincoln is observed. Big plans are aioot for a full year's program to cel ebrate the '50th birthday of the man whose place Davis might have taken had the rebels defeated the Union in the War Between the States. Despite being on opposite sides there were some amazing paral lels in the lives of Davis and Lin coln. Both were from families that mi grated southward from the North, Both werl born. in log cabins in the same state only 120 miles apart. Both me' 'with tragedy in love, Lincoln through the death of a sweetheart and Davis with the death of his young wife of three months. Both had political setbacks but came back to reach new heights of success. Of cours?, there were many dis similarities too. Davis ,;ot his start largely through an older brother, who made a fortune as a cotton plant er in Mississippi. Lincoln had much more of a struggle estab lishing himself on his own. Davis was never a man of ro bust health and had a facial neu ralgia that sometimes blinded him. Lincoln was as strong as an ox. The two were worlds apart in political philosophy. Davis, a Dem ocrat, was an early believer in the right of states to secede from the Union. Lincoln believed the Un ion must be preserved at all costs. Their lives ended differently too. Lincoln was cut down by an assassin's bullet five' days after Lee's surrender at Appomattox Davis lingered on until 1889. us- Dependable Coverage MAYFLOWER AUTO INSURANCE Retionabl J-.tei VERN W.

Judge Thurmond Clarke was motivated by the same teetings ot sympathy that have caused hun dreds to rally to the bank rob ber's support. For there is a story behind his brief foray into crime. St. Onge. a stocky, serious young man with a crew cut and soft blue eyes, told it yesterday out side the courtroom. "It was hard to find a place to live in Detroit with all the kids," said St. Onge, who had lived there all his life. "I got disgusted and said to my wife, 'Come on, let's go to California!' " That was last September and things turned out even worse when they arrived in Los Angeles "For three weeks we slept in our car a 1947 Studebaker and ate in a park. Then my wife got a job as a waitress and we moved into a Quonset hut for $25 a week plus utilities. The bill for electricity at the end of two months was $87, and I found out the landlord had another apart ment, a trailer and a garage wired on. to our place. I took care of the kids. Four of them were in school. They all went at different times and took turns wearing one good pair of shoes a neighbor had given us. I spent all day taking them to school and bringing them home and at 4:30 I d pick up my wife ana what she d made in tips we d spend on lood tor dinner. 1 never had any tune to look for a job except close by. and I couian t tind anything. men my wile lost her ob be cause she wa? pregnant and her legs got so she couldn t stand on them. All our money was gone and that night when we out the kids to bed they were crying be cause they were hungry and I naa to do something. What M. Onge did was go into downtown bank, threaten the cashier with a toy pistol, and walk out with the money. He was captured moments later and his story, in newspapers and on tele. vision, produced a flood of offers to help. ine tamiiy got a house in near- by La Puente without any down payment. Furniture and clothing was given to them and $1,000 in cash came in hundreds of let ters. From among dozens of offers of jobs St. Onge got one as a laundry truck driver. He and his wife Esther were both damp eyed as they led their children from the courtroom yes terday. 0 'This is the best break I ever had," said St. Onge. TEARFUL STORY PANAMA CITY, Fla.
