To Correct Orb Woes
"DENNIS THE MENACE"
WHITE STUFF is wanted to cover the bam rocks of the
new two million dollar Mt. Shasta Ski Bowl. This winter
has recorded the least precipitation in 108 years, accord
ing to Bill diCristina, manager of the new ski bowl. He
and his crew got out with buckets of whitewash to cover
some of the rocks so they would at least look white. South
ern Siskiyou men are growing beards to be shaved off only
when the grand opening of the ski season takes place two
weeks after there is sufficient snow for skiing. Snow is
more than a month late in arrival at this time.

WASHINGTON (AP) - With

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.

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.

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

there. In the eyes of the fright

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

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.

machinists' strike.
The first flight left New York

Los Angeles nonstop.
Eastbound international flights
also began today, and westbound

The strike of 6.700 machinists
ended Saturday night with an
nouncement that a majority ef the
members in 20 locals of District

reached here Wednesday.
The contract, expiring Oct. 1.

BOSTON, Mass. (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.

have made it more difficult to

"Farm producers." said Mc

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.
