WASHINGTON (AP) - With second space shot ahead, Army scientists set out today to correct troubles that thwarted their first effort to hurl a tiny package ol instruments into orbit around the sun. At the same time, they rated the experiment a success in mea suring the depth of man-poisoning raoiation around the earth. The space probe Pioneer III first of two assigned to the Army met its flaming end over North Africa Sunday afternoon. Fired alolt by a four-stage roc ket early Saturday, the 13-pound cone reached an announced peak altitude of 66.634 miles before fall ing back and burning in the terri fic heat generated by atmospheric tnction. All told, it was 38 hours and minutes in flight. the Army s Pioneer III didn t get as tar into space as did the Air forces best effort Oct. 11 Revised figures showed the Air forces Pioneer 1 reached 71,300 miles.

Idaho (AP) Strong opposition to the proposed Colum bia River Development Corp. is expected to be expressed by sev eral Idaho groups at a hearing in Loeur a Alene Wednesday. "The hearing record will em phatically prove the widespread and deep-seated resistance of Ida ho citizens to the proposal or any other similar effort to take away the rights of Idaho people to con trol their own natural resources. I. A. Anderson, secretary of the Idaho Resource Development Council said Saturday. Scheduled to appear before the flood control and rivers and har bors, subcommittee of the Senate Public Works Committee are rep resentatives of the rarm, mining and reclamation interests as well as local chambers of commerce and irrigation districts. "Idaho people will oppose this thinly disguised Columbia Valley Authority which presents a direct threat to place ultimate control of our water rights in the hands of a five-man federal board with dicta torial authority," Anderson con tended. Sen. Richard Neuberger (D-Ore) author of a similar proposal at the last session of Congress, is expected to conduct Wednesday's hearing. Pair Recalls December 7 MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP)-An American hero of Pearl Harbor and a Japanese bomber pilot in the raid relived their parts Sun day. As Lt. Col. Toshio Hashimoto and Lt. Col. Stephen G. Saltzman discussed their roles on Dec. 7, 1941. it was evident that time had erased all hatred. Hashimoto is one of Saltzman's students in the Command and Staff School at Maxwell Air Force Base. At Pearl Harbor. Hashimoto was lieutenant junior grade who piloted a Mitsubishi attached to the carrier Hiryu. He bombed the battleship West Virginia. Saltzman wears a Silver Star medal for his courageous action while a second lieutenant assigned to an antiaircraft battalion near Pearl Harbor's Wheeler Field. While rushing about awakening troops, Saltzman grabbed his rifle nd emptied it into the cockpit ol a bomber flying low in a strating action. The bomber crashed and Saltzman said he found he had shot the pilot in the. forehead. which Army from Cape Canaveral, Fla. also was the lite of the launching. The Air Force now has used up all three space probes allotted to it for the present at least. It sought to send a somewhat heav icr satellite than the Army's into orbit around the moon, which is some 220,000 miles from the earth The Army s intent with Pioneer HI was to pass the moon and per- naps go imo oroit around the sun, which is some 93 million miles away. - The Army wasn't saying public ly just when it would try again. But Maj. Gen. John P. Medaris. cniei oi me Army missile com mand, said another shot is at least a month off. "See me after Christ mas, he told interviewers on a television program. failure of the Air Force's nio- neer I to reach the vicinity of the moon was attributed in part to a higher - than - planned trajectory. Another reason cited was insuf ficient rocket thrust. In the case of the Army's Pio neer III, scientists said it was launched at loo low an angle. And they said its first stage fuel shut off three seconds too soon, cutting its speed below the 24.900 m.n.h. during takeoff. It slowed as it rose, then gathered speed again on falling. Medaris said the rocket design will be analyzed and its control system slightly altered Medaris said the firing of Pio neer III was completely success- lul in wnat he called its primary goal to record the extent of the radiation band around the earth Dr. William H. Pickering said the Army probe's round trip into space enabled scientists to get twice tne amount ot radiation data they would have gotten if the gold plated cone had continued on in stead of returning toward earth. Pickering is director of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory at the Cali fornia Institute of Technology. He said it probably would be about a week before enough of the radiation data could be evaluated to give a picture of conditions in space. Pioneer III blasted off from Cape Canaveral at 12:45 a.m. Sat urdayright on schedule. Some 20 hours later, it reached its apogee, or. maximum altitude. By that time, it had slowed to a few hun dred miles an hour. Then the probe plummeted, its speed increasing again as the earth's gravity exerted itself. As it plunged to its doom, its velocity was back up to an estimated 23, 300 miles an hour. A tracking station in Puerto Rico lost contact with Pioneer at about 2:30 p.m. when it was 2.000 miles above the earth. Scientists said their calculation of its time of death was based on a projection of the probe's rate of fall until that time. According to calculations Pio neer felt above northern French Equatorial Africa. Although burnout came after dark in Africa, there were no im mediate eyewitness reports of the blazing finish. veil vrmif (API Truck driv er's 'and other delivery workers struck nine New York City news papers today.

(AP) Great confidence in his dad and a desire to be strong as other kids led a 5-year-old English boy to the operating room where sur geons mended his defective heart Stephen Smith still believes it Kin Reunited On First Date PORTLAND (AP) On their first date, Dorothy Manewal, 16, and Richard Gillett, 22, liked each other. And, then they found that they really had something in common they were brother and .sister, parted 10 years ago. After they were introduced by a friend last week, Dorothy said 'I sort of liked Dick and we made a date for Saturday ntgni. "We were sitting in a car and talking When I just happened to say that Dorothy Manewal wasn t my real name, that it was Sara Esther Alridgc. "And then he said that Dick Gillett wasn't his real name eith er. And then he said 'Well, I'm your brother.' We just sat there for a moment. We could hardly believe it," Miss Manewal said. The pretty, dark-haired high school girl said they were adopted into separate homes after their mother died in 1948, and hadn't seen each, other since. Gillett, whose real name is Michael Charles Alridge, said that he knew of his sister's exis tence, but never had tried to find her. "I remember him when I was a little girl," Miss Manewal said, and added that she never had at tempted to locate him, either. Gillett, a factory worker in nearby Oregon City, spent yester day helping his new-found sister make Christmas decorations. was his father, a 31-year-old Lon don boilermaker, who performed the. surgery Friday. Actually it was Mayo Clinic surgeons who did the operation, Stephen's only hope of living beyond childhood. Stephen "knew how much of the operation meant to him. Frederick Smith explained. "We have told him he can run and play like the other boys on the street if he gets well. I didn't try to mislead him but he has so much confidence in me that he thought I would do the operation." At the head surgeon's sugges tion. Smith went along when Ste phen was wheeled into the operat ing room. Doctors let the boy be lieve his father would remain there. In the eyes of the fright ened child,, his dad was the man who would see him through. I don t want to tell him yet about the wonderful surgeons .here who performed the operation, said Smith. "He believes I did it. think it comforts him to feel that." Doctors repaired a hole in the wall separating chambers of the lad's heart. The surgery appeared to be successful, but it will be a few days before physicians can tell whether Stephen will recover For a time Saturday, the Smiths feared they would lose their son. Mrs. Smith wept as she stood by the bed of her delirious boy. After that scare, the Smiths watched their son begin to im prove. He took liquid food Sun day. The incision stopped bleed ing and the child was taken off transfusion. "When he gets back to England he's going to want to take on the whole neighborhood because he knows he's going to be strong,' said Smith.

(AP) A call for big reductions in government spending including that for aid of farmers was made today by President Charles B. Shuman of the American Farm Bureau Federation. Here lo preside over a four-day annual convention of his farm or ganization, Shuman told a news conference that the really big is sue facing the nation and the new congress convening in Jan uaryis inflation and government spending. "Steps must be taken," he de clared, "to check inflation." The convention itself was ex pected to adopt resolutions urging a retreat of government from farm-aid programs which have been increasing in cost jn recent years. Shuman said the new Congress should reduce outlays for defense and foreign aid as well as for agriculture. He said federal farm programs of the past 20 years have done agriculture more harm than good because, he said, they have de layed and in come cases prevent ed needed adjustments in the farming pattern. A somewhat similar view was expressed by an Eisenhower ad ministration farm official. Asst. Secretary ot Agriculture Marvin L. McClain said in a speech prepared for a convention session that "our past fanrr pro grams have not been getting the job done. fn some cases, he said, they have made it more difficult to solve our problems." .

They need the opportunity to market more free ly on a competitive basis, with less dependence on uncertain sub sidy operations."

HEMSTITCHING 10c A YARD Art Np(f1rwork Shop 1403 Mftln Star Scorns Slacks, Jeans, Makes A Hit Bv BOB THOMAS HOLLYWOOD (AP) There's hope for the younger generation of film actresses, after all. Here's one who scorns blue jeans, slacks and other sloppy attire. Recently in this space, Hichard Arlen fired a blast at the current female stars who dress like slobs in public. Dick would be delighted with Susan Kohner. a bright young talent who is the picture of neat ness and glamor wherever you see her. How did she get that way? "I guess it was partly my train ing in school," she said. "I was n a private-school wnere we naa i daily inspection to see if our nails were clean, shoes were pol ished and dresses were neat. "For another thing. I knew and admired all the great glamor queens of the movies as I was growing up. Stars like Marlene Dietrich and Joan Crawford. They were guests in our home. And I never saw them when they weren't beautifully groomed." You may wonder how Susan was exposed to all this glamor. Her father is the topflight movie agent Paul Kohner. Her mother is Lupita Tovar, star of Mexican and Holly wood films. Susan came to lunch beautifully attired, though her style was 20 centuries old. She is playing her most impressive role to date, the feminine lead as an Arab princess n The Big Fisherman. Papa Kohner is Susan's agent. She said that's both a help and a hindrance. "It's nice to have an agent who is so enthusiastic," she remarked. "But sometimes his enthusiasm gets a little too big. and I have to temper lt somewhat." Another drawback, she said, can be with producers who have known her since she was an infant and can't get used to the fact that she a grown-up 21-year-old actress. Susan has risen through summer stock and TV plays to become an accomplished actress. Her work with Lana Turner in "Imitation of Life is drawing raves. And she's neat, too.
