Space Vehicle Travel Seen AMSTERDAM (UPD-An Ameri can "astronaut" said today the United States may be ready to test the world's first manned space platlorm within the next I live years. Darrell Roinick, of Akron, Ohio, told the International Astronauti cal Congress intensive research al ready has produced tentative solu- tions to some ot the problems in- volved in launching such a plal - liomick said the proposed plat- lorm would be a three-stage rock el carrying eight men three each in the first and thirl stages and two in the second. Each stace would be a "spaceship" capable I of returning to earth, with delta l wings enabling it to maneuver in the atmosphere. The duties ot the crewmen have been figured out in some detail. he said, and special chairs with pushbuttons in the arms are being designed so they can operate the rocket even under the vast strain of takeoff. Another American space engi neer reported on a "special events ..atellile" which could make it possible for half the world to see a "live" telecast of the inaugura tion of the next U.S. president.

Local loreign car fans ajot more, than a look at 15 different im - ported models: they pot an indi cation of results to come when the motorcade ends at the State Fair in Salem tonight. The 1.400 mile marathon across the state and back was planned with several purposes in mm d, among them advertisement of the Full Soil Bonk Details Due YREKA According to a re cent announcement by John Fos ter, chairman of the Siskiyou County Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Committee, farm ers of Siskiyou County will have within two weeks full information available, relative to the conserva tion reserve program of the soil bank for 1959. According to Foster's statement, the conservation reserve is being openeo early this year because the other part of the soil bank, the acreage reserve program, will not be effective in 1959. Under conservation reserve, farmers contract with the U.S. De partment of Agriculture to lessen their acreage of harvested crops lor a period ot up to 10 years, and apply this acreage to conser vation practices. The farmer re ceives, in return for this contri bution to production adjustment, an annual rental payment from the government, based on the produc tivity of his land. The government will also share in the cost of es tablishing the conservation prac tices. Three major changes from the program in effect this year, ac cording to Foster arc: 1. A higher average level of ren tal payments with the individual rate depending upon the produc tively, agricultural value and rent al rates for similar land in the locality. 2. A higher payment rate as an incentive for a farmer to place al eligible cropland in the reserve. 3. A priority system for accept ing contract applications which gives preference to those farmers ottering land at the lowest cost per unit of productivity. Foster said that farmers will he notified as soon as the county of. fice is ready to receive conserva tion reserve applications.

It may have - lbeen a little disappointing as nor - inial "fill 'er up" orders go, but it was revealing Manning said most drivers, who had last tilled up at Bend, each ordered about four gallons of gas. That was the average require- ment "The Isetta, a little Italian car with a door in front, took 3.4 gallons," Manning said. "1 think that was the smallest amount. A fellow driving a Morris Minor took 3.5 gallons." Each car had two drivers who had left Portland August 27. Baker Thursday morning, and departed here early Friday to complete the 1,400 mile international mileage marathon to Salem. The group spent the night or part of it at the Willard Hotel. They were scheduled for a 2 a.m. breakfast, then 3 a.m. departure. The run from Bend to Klamath Falls included a tour through Cra ter Lake National Park. The driv ers, Pickett said, decided it was "a pretty tricky route." School Enrolls Negro Pupils NORFOLK, Va. (AP) The Nor folk School Board, complying with an 18-month-old lederal court or der to end racial segregation in the public schools, announced to day it will enroll 17 Negroes in white schools. The board reported its action to federal District Judge Walter h. Hoffman after three days spent in reconsidering previously rejected applications of 151 Negroes for ad mission to white schools. Under Virginia's program of massive resistance to school inte gration, a school that is integated is automatically closed. Gov. J. Lindsay Almond Jr. was not immediately available for comment on today's develop ments. The board said the 17 children will be enrolled for the school year beginning Sept. 8. It said it took the action con trary to what all of the members of the school board and the divi sion superintendent of schools honestly and sincerely believe is in the best interests of the apply ing children, the children in the af- ected schools and the public in general, but pursuant to the law as interpreted by the court. J he 17 children to be enrolled had previously been rejected for admission to white schools on the grounds that their presence there would cause racial tensions and isolation of Negroes among their schoolmates. The school board told Hoffman that after reconsidering the other 134 Negro applicants it had decid ed not to enroll them. The school board attorney. W. R. C. Cooke, immediately after the board's report was read in court by Chairman Paul Schweit zer, told Hoffman a motion will be filed asking the court to delay or defer enrollment of the 17 Ne groes until September, 1959.

Ppl., Lake 0' Woods Road Paving Requested A delegation from Medford met with the Klamath County Court Friday to discuss roads in gener al and the Dead Indian Road at Lake of the Woods in particular. The Jackson County ' emissaries hrought with them a petition, con taining 876 names, asking Klam ath County to consider paving the road from the lake to the Jacfcson County line. It was a particularly timely meeting, Jackson County Judge Rodney Keating said, because his county had completed paving its part of the Dead Indian Road only yesterday when the last 4.6 miles were sealed. With Judge Keating were Com missioners .Chester Wendt and Ralph A. James, Jackson County Engineer P. A. Rynning, and K. H. Singmaster and Henry Enders of Ashland and E. H. Mann of Medford, all property owners at Lake of the Woods, Judge Keating said his county requested Klamath County to pave the road from Ihe lake to the county line; it did not request pavement of the road circumscrib ing the lake. Klamath County Judge Charlie Mack and Commissioner Jerry Rajnus said the delegation had been invited to the lake Friday to inspect the roads. Meeting with the combined courts were Klamath County Engineer William R. Can ton and Road Superintendent Red Wells. In other business; Judge Mack said he had been asked by the Legislative Interim Committee on Indian Affairs "if Vou have any recommendations pertinent to the Klamath Indian situation to present lor the com mittee's consideration." A letter from Tom Lawson Mc Call, the committee's executive secretary, said: "You are in a bet ter position than anyone to specu late on the future impact of term ination on local government in your area and to relate it to pos sible demands that might be made on the state government as an ul timate sequence. McCall again thanked Mack for material he had given the com mittee, at the committee's request, last November. A Klamath County legislator, John Korbow, is vice chairman of the interim commit tee.

Ordinance Protested MONTAGUE - A group of Mon tague residents, headed by Morris Prather, rancher, as spokesman and Jack Churchill, mayor of Mon tague, appeared before the Sisk iyou County Board of Supervisors on Tuesday, August 26, to protest the enactment of a county ordi nance prohibiting the shooting of firearms within one mile of an in corporated city. Prather, whose ranch is located a short distance from Montague and who runs a string of sheep nearby, stated that "the only way I can keep the dogs off without putting out poison is by shooting them. Churchill called attention to the existing state law which prohibits shooting within 150 yards of a res idence as providing some protec tion" against the use of firearms in populated areas. Supervisor S. C. Jackson ex pressed the opinion that he would favor the ordinance if it was lim ited to Yreka, "but I don't think District 3 (his district, which takes in Montague) needs it." A similar opinion was expressed by Don Avery, chairman. On asking Yreka s Judge Harry Hammond for his opinion regard ing said ordinance, he stated that "if you have that power, then you should carry it further and say there should be no discharge of firearms in Siskiyou County." Hammond also agreed with Floyd Merrill, district attorney of Siski you County, that the ordinance if passed should be applicable to all incoi, ited areas. It was agreed by the board to table the matter until next week, the subject to be discussed further by Merrill and Sheriff Al Cottar. Negro Students Enroll In School ARDMORE, Okla.
