So, with a ruffle of drums and a sound of trumpets, they retreated, carry ing along the wounded. Exhaust ed, they went home to bed. The re-enactment of the battle of New Orleans by 400 Cub Scouts was part of the hoop-de-dn for the world premiere of "The Buc caneer," which also happens to be about the battle of New Orleans. The publicity mind never sleeps, and the Paramount boys had a ball with this one. The premiere party, led by actress lnger Stevens and produc er Henry Wilcoxen, was carried to the Chalmette battle site by the civic yacht, Good Neighbor. The only trouble came when the Good Neighbor tried to dock near a dredger, lost a propeller in the latler's cable and came within a foot of drifting into the dredger's boom. "The mayor ain't goin' to like that," a crewman observed. Thl welcome parly included a covey of bare-shouldered Southern belles who wore ball gowns, red sashes and goose pimples. Oh, it was a grand fight! On the American side were pint sized pioneers in coonskin hats and buckskin, fine - feathered In dians, as well as Andy Jackson's blue-coated regulars. The redcoats were equally impressive in their bright uniforms: there was even a platoon of kilted "ladies from heck." The Americans hugged the levee and held their fire while the red coats charged forward with their wooden muskets tipped with rub ber daggers. Bang! Bang! Bang! tne attackers didn t have chance. "British, retreat!" shouted an adult redcoat. There were dead soldiers all over, but the only real casualty was a den leader who burned his fingers lighting a fire cracker for sound effects. AF Keeps Eye On Trains While Launching Missiles VANDENBERG AFB. Calif. 'L'PIl The Air Force today ex plained how it expects to conduct regular missile and space vehicle launchings here while keeping a sharp eye peeled for both sched uled and unscheduled trains run ning through the launch area. The fact which caused some embarrassment during the first West Coast Thor IRBM launching here Tuesday is that the Air Force admittedly "doesn't always know the schedule lor trains corning through on Southern Pa cilic Railroad's main line. But, as First Missile Division commander Maj. Gen. David Wade pointed out, "neither does the railroad." Passenger trains are on the rail road schedule which the missile men must consult in order to con duct launchings. But freight trains are not and the railroad explained it is impossible to schedule them. While explaining this matter, Air Force officers maintained a patient attitude toward jokes cracked by some newsmen who Sailor Dies In Mid Ocean SAN FRANCISCO (UP1) - One Coast Guardsman was swept to his death and 11 others were in jured Wednesday when a "single tremendous wave" washed over the cutter Gresham in Mid-Pacilic. Coast Guard authorities here aid five of the injured men were in serious condition, and the body of the man washed overboard was not recovered. Names of the men were withheld pending notification ot next ot kin. ' The accident occurred at Sla- lion Romeo, 2,400 miles west of ban francisco and about halfway between Hawaii and the Aleutian Islands. The Gresham. from Alameda. Calif., had arrived to relieve the culler Klamath, from Seattle, Wash. The wave struck while mail was being passed between the ves sels. Other waves had been run ning about 19 feet high, with wind of 40 miles an hour. The Gresham was ordered to continue to Midway Island with tne injured men, while the Klam ath remained on station. Public Given Yule Present SEASIDE, Ore. (API A tree more than 500 years older than the United States Wednesday was given as a Christmas present to the public.

Peterson, Crown Zellerbach's Clatsop division su perintendent, said the tree con tains enough wood to build six two-bedroom houses. aited through delay after delay Tuesday while counting several irains which passed through the area during final countdown pro cedures. , When the third train appeared on the tense scene and lazily rolled past the Thor launch pad at less than half the 8,000-foot dis tance at which newsmen were kept, one oflicer slapped his head and groaned, "Oh, no!' A newsman cracked. "What hap pens now if a small dog runs out?" The Strategic Air Command, an xious to have its first Thor firing look good, hustled newsmen to the press observation site in plenty of time for a 12:15 p.m. launch, but was unable'to fire until 3:44 p.m. Most newsmen missed lunch ex cept for coffee and rolls pur chased from a catering truck et the scene. Air Force spokesmen stressed that the trains played only a par tial role in the numerous "holds" which delayed the firing. They said most of the postponements during the 3'i hour period were due to technical difficulties en countered in equipment or pro cedures none of them serious. If a train appeared during a "technical hold," its passage ad ded to the length of the delay, spokesmen said. Gen. Wade said following the successful launch thai there were no plans to change tiring routine or anything else, adding, "we do not plan to move the railroad. 4 s w - 3 Nature Aids 4-H Camper LA GRANDE (AP) Nature served as a bank (or 13-year-old Jeff McMillan, a La GrAde ju nior high school student. wncn joii went wading in a creek at a nearby 4-H camp last July 2, he stashed his wallet on a rock beside the stream. inc Dilllold, which was gone wnen he returned for it then. turned up yesterday.

Iraq. !UPIl-A 13- man Communist Chinese trade delegation opened negotiations to day on a commercial agreement WASHINGTON (UPI) Ameri cans had more cash in their pockets this year than ever be fore in history. Rut it didn't buv as much as what they had last year. The Commerce Department re ported Wednesday night that per sonnl income this year rose an estimated Vi per cent higher than last year mostly due to higher federal benefit payments. However, the department said the increase failed to offset a 2' per cent increase in the cost of living. The report underlined that the dollar has continued to shrink in value a situation that has caused Senate Democratic lead-' ors to call for a full investiga tion of means to curb inflation. The report also bolstered the view of government economists who believe the nation's economy nas gained pre-recession propor tions and is poised on the thresh old of expansion to new highs. One top-level source estimated that the gross national product Ihe total value of all goods and services produced in the nation! would hit an annual rate of 453 billion dollars in the final three months of the year. Even when this estimate is ad- justed to allow for price In-' creases. Ihe figure is just a shade below the mid-1957 record. The Commerce Department based its full-year estimates on actual It-month totals.
