Beirut Sees Diifereni Breed Of U.S. Marines By JERRY BKXNKTT NEA Staff Correspondent QUANTIC'O MARINE RASE. Va. 'NKAI The Arabs on the beaches of Beirut got their first look at U.S. Marines 55 years ago. But the ones they are seeing today are a new breed ot fighting man. Not that the leathernecks who landed there in 1!03 to protect the American Consulate against a threatened Moslem uprising weren t tough. It's just that l!i53's Marines are lougher and pack an arsenal of infantry weapons as revolutionary as the atomic age. Marine censors have dropped a complete blackout over descrip tions of the arms actually carried by the forces now m Lebanon. But they explain that all Marines have been trained in the newest wea pons. They also report that Ma rines have taken part in recent maneuvers at an atomic proving round Marines of the Sixth Fleet are known to be equipped with atomic arms: probably, however, these were left aboard ship when they landed. Among other new mobile weap ons in which today's Marines are being trained, there is "The Thing." That s the translation of its Pipe Smokers PIsn toes Despite streamlined weapons and the new mobile landing meth od, however, there is as no less em phasis on the tough, hand-to-hand combat techniques for which thev are so famous. Marines still gel trenuous training in judo and bayonet fighting. And the body building exercises are Just . s tough as ever. If leathernecks actually have to fight in the Middle East, Marine lificials are confident that they can operate as well in tne aeson thev can in jungles or snow- covered Asian mountains. After all. Marines proved them selves to be excellent desert fight ers in 1805 when they fought the Barbary pirates in Tripoli, the famed opuration extolled in the Marine hymn. But one Marine officer is even more emphatic about the leather necks' present potential. "Marines can handle themselves anywhere," he declares. I upport no candidate unless he demanded immediate withdrawal of It. S. troops. The front also re-ipm,,,,.,,! newed demands tor Chamouns immediate resignation. Informants close to touhted he would agree to any conditions. The iti-ycar-old army commander has insisted he would accept election only if ho strings were attached. . Some deputies said that opposi tion members of Parliament arc loyal to Shchab personally and likely to vote for him despite the National rront statement. Prime Minister Sami Solh threatened to resign unless the elections were postponed until in ternal security is re-estahhshed His threat followed an attempt to assassinate him in which eight other persons wore killed. Chamoun decided not to go along with Solh alter talking with It. S. Ambassador Robert McClm ChamoiuiiLebane.se independence, a spokes man said. Robert Murphy, deputy U.

Pipe smokers from all other the United States probably 75 to 100 of them will stoke up with a special contest blend and putt away for the loth world cham pionship Saturday. The rules are simple. Light up and have at it. If it goes out alter lock, who reportedly insisted the the first minute, you're out. The elections he held tomorrow. They ! A lime homh wrecked the Brit ish tihrarv and inlormation center Shchab,, Amman last ni"ht. slightly in juring an Arab girl employe. A second time tinnm exploded oiu- ide the garage of the assistant manager of a British-owned bank. The bombings obviously were in retaliation for the presence of 2.000 British paratroopers on the Amman airfield. They were sent in July 17 from Cyprus at the re- c.uost of- Hussein. President Nasser of the United Arab Republic has called for Hus sein's overthrow and the Jordani an government has accused the U. A. R. of sending in arms and ihon from lis Syrian province. I he bomb planted on a shell at the British library by an unknown person "tossed books and splint - els all over the place, a British Embassy spokesman said. It start ed a small fire. The second bomb "made a lot of noise and woke the kids up," said Daniel Brown o! Sprata, Tenn , the U. S. inlormation offi cer in Amman, who lives nearby. "But that's about all except for the broken windows." The bombings resulted in light ened security, with Arab Legion guards frisking all those entering Amman buildings. Gaming Probe Opening Set tvni w APOL1S AP Some Greek name the Onlos and it's 170 persons Irom 4(1 slates win i f a highly inancuvcrnble tank killer coming here next monm in ranj Oil Company Files Suit 1 SAN FRANCISCO (UPD ,- suit has been filed by Standard Oil Company of California to re gain $400,000 in alleged kickbacks to three tormer top executives. . Defendants in the civil suit filed in U.S. District Court Tues day. included Howard R. Cuyler San Francisco, former general manager of wholesale sales: Au gust P. Johnsen, Atherton, Calif., former president of a sales sub sidiary: and Howard E. Gunnels, Phoenix, former regional manager of wholesale sales in Arizona and New Mexico. " Also named as a defendant in the complaint was Hahh Enter prises, a partnership including the three men named and Horace Steele, Phoenix, president and ma jority stockholder of Texas Inde pendent Oil Company. The complaint charges that hahh Enterprises received pay ments from the Texas concern computed on the basis of one- fourth cent per gallon sold by Standard to the Texas Company. These payments were distributed among the partners of Hahh, the suit said. The three former Standard ex ecutives also were accused of con spiring to defraud Standard by ob taining "secret profits," but the complaint said the exact amount had not yet been determined. Standard sought permission to amend the complaint at a later dale. Standard said the alleged con spiracy was discovered in April. 1958, and that the defendants have refused to return amounts sought by the company. Cuyler. his attorney, and John son's wife all declined comment on the charges. vhich weapons experts claim can knock out any type of tank. There's the Mechanical Mule, an extremely premising and versatile jeep-type four-wheeler capable of transporting l.ono pounds of sup plies and ammunition across rough terrain and steep hills. The Mechanical Mule is also de signed to mount a lfili-mm recoil- less rule. And Marine otlicers be lieve it would prove especially use ful for quick evacuation of wound ed troops. Another vehicle, called the Mighty Mite, is designed to op erate with assault forces. It's light enough to be delivered by helicopter to a battle area. For the Lebanon operation, ine Marines used boat landing cratt because they were not under fire. But leatherneck officials explain that they arc developing a new, speedier type of landing lactic. Since the Korean war, emphasis has been placed on landing troops by helicopter. Under the new ver tical assault system, Marines armed with modern death-dealing weapons can be flown as far as iOO miles into enemy territory along a battle line extending 50 miles. Marines say this tactic boosts the mobility of landing forces and enables them to close in on their objective quickly without hav ing to battle their way through surround ing enemy beach defenses. So far the corps has not under gone an over-all transition to the vertical assault method, litis means that until the complete haneeover is made troops must still be readv to prlorm the dan gerous task of rushing ashore on foot. Man Dies At Age Of 107 OKLAHOMA CITY IAD-Har ry Jackson. vho once said "If there's anything I can think of that would shorten a man's life. I've done it," died yesterday. He was 107. A 50-year veteran of the U. S Secret Service, he settled in Okla homa after helping police the 1389 land run which led to the opening of Oklahoma. He died a week after he suf fered a stroke and fell. Jackson was horn Nov. 27, 18o0. In Tarrant County. Tex. Reminiscing shout the '89 land run. he said. "Oklahoma wasn't rough like Texas. 1 don't think over 14 people got killed in the run." He said he had no idea why he lived so long but on another occa sion declartd it was because he had always stayed interested in things. Sailing Trip Is Postponed HONOLULU lAP) Earle Reyn olds' 19-vear-olri son Ted post poncd sailing his father's ketch Phoenix from Kwajalein yester day after a Navy warning that the trip would be foolhardy with only two crew members. The Phoenix has hecn moored at Kwajalein since it was halted earlier this month inside the U.S. nuclear bomb test zone in the Pa cific. Skipper Reynolds, former Antioch i Ohio) College professor, was ar rested for violating an Atomic En ergy Commission rule against en try. His crew members nis wnc Barbara, 43, his son. and Nick Mi- kami, 35. Hiroshima, Japan were not charged. Reynolds and his wile wont to Honolulu. His son and Mikami were left with the 50 (oot ketch Reynolds, freed on S-VIO hail, loll for the mainland to muster fundj1 and legal advice for his defense. n a leoeral eraim juiy iiih-i- lion ot an Indiana-based gambling syndicate said to have grossed tviillinns nt do ars. Suhnoenas were served on the witnesses, said to range iron: postal clerks to bigshot gamblers, in a smoothly coordinated simul taneous move yesterday by fed eral marshals Irom coast to coast. U. S. Attv. Don A. Tabhert re fused to identify any of the wit nesses until he was sure every one had been served, but he ad mitted the 1st includes a well- known movie comedian and sev eral respected businessmen as well as members ot the under world fringe. Targets of the investigation are the backers ot a gambling synoi catc that operated for about 10 weeks above a Torre Haute Und.) restaurant until federal agents raided the place last Nov. 29. At that time Tabhert announced the syndicate was taking in a mil lion dollars a month in telephoned bets on sporting events from all over the country, including many from well-heeled plungers who didn't quibble about risking $25. 000 on the outcome of a football game. Now the U. S. attorney thinks the operation was even sub stantially larger than previously estimated. This was a very large opera tion." he said. "You wouldn t walk in this place and put down any $10 bets." Most of those subpoenaed are either bettors or in a position to know something about the syndi cate, Tabhert said, and are in no danger of prosecution unless evi dence is uncovered of a law vio lation on their own part. What the government is after, he said, is to pin criminal indict ments on the syndicate members for evading payment of excise taxes. The grand jury probe probahly will begin Aug. 11, Tabhert said, and will continue for ahout two weeks. Witnesses have been told In appear at staggered dales, so ot them won t be waiting at once to testify. ENSIGN Jerry E.
