(API - New Jersey's U.S. Senate candidates look as though they were picked by a Hollywood casting director. But the campaign has heen no hit at the box olficc. The whole thing has party heads on both sides ball led. It figures to be a very close election. But no crowds, no heat and not much voter interest have shown so (ar. Running (or the Republicans is U.S. Rep. Robert W. Kean, 65- year-old veteran congressman and millionaire investment banker with a U.S. Senate tradition in his family. His gray hair, almost white mustache and dignified car nage conform lo one of the popu lar ideas of what a senator looks like. Opposing Kean is Harrison A. Williams Jr., 38-year-old lawyer and former congressman. Dark haired and boyish-looking. Wil liams personifies the young, lib eral Democratic candidate. They are battling (or the seat being vacated by Sen. H. Alexan dcr Smith. 78-year-old Republican who is retiring. Kean's 20-year record in Coir gross has been the main hattle- ground. He backs the Eisenhower foreign policy, favors economy in government and speaks often with pride about Social Security law amendments be has sponsored. Williams, who olten backed Ei senhower's (oreign policy when he was in Congress from VJM to is more critical nowadays. But he charges that there is a marked isolationist trend in Kean's rec ord. He says much ol Kean's work the Social Security law was technical and that many times Kean voted against the basic ideas Involved. A large unspoken part of Wil liams' campaign is the Sherman Adams issue. Kean admits the Adams case may cost him votes. even though be was one of the (irst Republicans to call (or Ad ams resignation as President El senhower's top aide, alter Adams was shown to have accepted fa vors (rom a (riend who was in onie difficulties with the govern ment. Both men have concentrated on personal campaigns, with little re liance on television and radio. While their schedules are basic ally similar, Williams relies more on rallies at union halls and fewer teas and coffee hours than Kean. Both men travel around the state in automobile caravans led by sound trucks I Kean's unac countably features a recording of "Happy Days Are Here Again," the New Deal theme songt. While Williams thrives on cam paigning, he worries about stay ing away from home too much. His wile Nancy dislikes politics and stays home with their five young children. "Gee. my wile will kill me." he said after a recent 19-hour dav of campaigning gee camps near where she was slaying at Goettingen. Germany deeply impressed Susan Thorn dur ing her summer in Europe as an exchange student under the Amer ican Field Service program, she slaies. Susan returned home in Septem ber and is completing her senior year at Dunsmuir High School. Dieter Heinrich of Frankfort on -Main. Germany, is also a Duns muir High senior. He is the com munity's American Field Service student this year and he can easily understand Susan's feelings about "uncrossable" borders and refugees seeking new homes. He was born in Silesia, now part of Czechoslovakia, and his early mem ories are of (leeing ahead of the Russian soldiers. However, he, his parents and two brothers have been established in Frankfort since 1951 where Dieter's lather is a railroad offi cial. He says they do not dwell on the past. Susan said she found it hard to visualize a war while living as a part o( a German family in a charming city, 1.004 years old. west Germany still struggles to place the 550 Germans a day who flee East Germany, she said and unless relatives or someone else offers to be responsible for them, they stay indetinitely in refugee camps. Susan's biggest surprise was the greenness o( Germany. She said the lawns, trees, shrubbery and countrysides were far prettier than her expectations. Dieter had the opposite first impression.

Dieter's foster family for the year are Mr. and Mrs. Durward Gass and their two sons, Lee and Gerald. Dieter shares a room with Lee who is a junior at Dunsmuir High. He finds family life in America much busier than in Germany. Mrs. Gass teaches tailoring courses and is active in church and sororjty activities. He was surprised to find that most of the mothers in the neighborhood are engaged in some activity outside their homes. Susan's home for the summer was with the Wilhelm Loeb family. She found them a happy, well-knit group despite the fact that Mrs. Loeb was the family's principal support. War experiences had shat tered Mr. Loeb's health. Susan Ihought the days at the pool were the best recreation. German swim ming pools are surrounded by lawns, tennis and shuffleboard courts and refreshment stands, j Dieter likes all sorts of sDorts. he says, but has found organized rooting amazing. "In Germany, we yell when we feel like yelling." he states. He also is surprised at the emphasis on sports as compared 10 recognition tor scholastic achievement. "Going steady" puzzles him too. "If you like someone, you spend as much time as possible with them but until one is formally en gaged or married, there is no pro hibition against associating with other people," Dieter said of teen age relationships in Germany. But he said social life is secondary to studies during the teens. Susan has a "stcadv" hut he plans on finishing" college and : s. DIETER HEINRICH, an exchange student from Frankfort on the Main, Germany, and Susan Thorn, Dunsmuir, who spent the summer as an exchange student in Germany, both seniors at Dunsmuir High School, ponder the differ ence and similarities of life in the United States and in Germany while they study in the high school library.

"If young people read such books as 'Tom Sayyer' and 'Huckleberry Finn', 'Robinson Cruso' and 'Gulliver's Travels', instead o( the mawkish filth that is poured out for them, they not only would have a healthier slant on life, but would discover the ex-i citement of good reading." says Ackerman. He has just added to the current supply of juvenile ad venture literature with his first book, "Jeb and the Bank Rob bers." a tale of youthful blood and thunder in a little Indiana town of the 18's.

A hunter's campfire, which es caped control Sunday, Oetober 12, near Antler Spring about 10 miles southeast of Dog Lake, was dis covered and promptly brought un der control by Fremont crews. John Saunders, fireman from Dog Lake, who first reached the fire found that apparently a hunter had left his fire unattended and on returning to camp, found that it had escaped. There was evidence that he had tried to control the fire but was unable to and picked up his camp and left. It burned about one-fourth of an acre. Another hunter fire on Salt Creek which burned about one-eighth of an acre was suppressed by Forest Service crews on the Warner Dis trict on October 12. The opening days of the deer hunting season last week brought nine fires to the rremont horest. Air patrol was flown over the en tire forest during this period. The' south end was covered by Myron Buswell, with Rod Canutt and Don' Allen as observers. The norlh end' was covered by Stinson of Klam ath Falls, with Bud Brookins as observer. There were five camper fires in the Silver Lake District. Two were on October 4. two on October S, and one on October 6. All were-' quickly controlled at less than -a quarter of an acre. One fire on the Paisley Ranger District. October 4. about one and one half miles west of Fremont Point, was controlled at about twrc acres. It was started by a waring, ing fire in a remote area. On the same day. near Mud Spring on the Drews Valley District, a fira caused by a smoker was found hy.. hunters and held until the fire' crew arrived. Another on Whisky Creek in the same district, caused hy a smoker, was held by hunters who found it.
