The air search began Friday over the jungle area of the Ori noco River delta. The amateur radio operators re ported that the balloon and its four passengers had landed near Pedernales, a Venezuelan port on Russia Paints Mural Of U.S. Delinquency LONDON (AP, Moscow radio painted a gloomy picture Saturday of juvenile delinquency in the Unit ed States. A broadcast entitled "The Growth of United States Delin quency" gave this description of young America: "On leaving the movies, the youngster sets out on a melan choly walk through the streets. Cigar-shaped gleaming Cadillacs and Chryslers rush past him. In restaurant windows he sees the faces of wcll-ied and satisfied people. "He, loo, could have such a car and be sitting in such a restaurant if . , . one word keeps creeping up in his heart and mind the word money." Capitalism's ' decay is Inevita bly accompanied by a recession in culture, a fall in morals and so shameful and frightening a phen omenon as children's juvenile de linquency," the broadcast added. This state of affairs, Moscow radio said, shows how "Bible truths collapse as soon as they come into contact with life." And how are things in the Soviet Union? "Time was when our country too then quite a young Soviet re public was faced with the press ing problem of unattended chil dren due to poverty, postwar col lapse and fatherlessness," the broadcast said. "The morality of Socialist soci ety could not tolerate such a phenomenon." That's all. Moscow radio didn't go any deeper into the problem of present Soviet juvenile delin quency. Occasional Russian news paper articles criticizing the con duct of young people indicate there is a lot of delinquency there. of the wide delta. The town is just 20 miles west of the tip of Trinidad in the British West In dies. The report gained strength when1 Minister of Communications Oscar Machado Zuloaga was quoted in Caracas newspapers as saying the balloon had landed in Venezuela. The Civil Aeronautics Authority said, however, that it had nothing to confirm the report. It was supervising the search by a Com munications Ministry DC3. After searching for only an hour or two, the plane was forced by darkness to land at Maturin, 60 miles west of Pedernales. The Small World cast off from Santa Cruz Island in the Can ary group, 65 miles off the coast of Morocco, on Dec: 12. The goal was to drift with the winds to Barbados, some 3,000 miles away in the West Indies Federation. Pedernales is about 3,450 miles from the takeoff point and 300 miles southwest of Barbados. The three men and the wife of one of them riding the balloon had estimated that the trip would take mree weeks. They had food for three months in the W.i-by-Vb-foot gondola, which was built to double as a lifeboat if necessary. This was the first attempt of a free balloon to float across the At lantic. The purpose was to study weather conditions and wind cur rents. Prince Philip, husband of Britain's Queen Elizabeth II, was the patron. Those aboard were pilot A. B. Eiloart, 51, a London business man; his son Timothy, 21, radio man; navigator Colin Mudie, 31, who crossed the Atlantic in 1952 in a 19-foot whaleboat; and Mudie's wife Rosemary, 30. the cook, photographer and copilot.

He was taken to Pottstown Me morial Hospital where surgeons periormed a two-hour operation to repair the wound in thp left side of his abdomen. A hosnital spokes man said the Poitstown youth had tost a great quantity of blood but, barring complications, was ex pected to live. He also suffered a minor facial cut. Lower "Pottsgrove Township Po lice Chief Harry Chrusch said a second youth. Mavnard Feno. 20. of Reading, in adjoining Berks County, had signed a statement admitting the stabbing. He was charged with aggravated assault aim battery and assault with a fall itop t,acaaiy weapon, pending further in vestigation. Chrusch said there had been ru mors of trouble between a Broun of boys from Poitstown and others from Reading. Chrusch said he understood Clark, a nationally known TV per sonality, alrcaly had left the ball room when the fight broke out shortly- before midnight and likely was not aware it had occurred. He said that apparently "trou ble had been brewing for some time between the two groups" but mat since onlythe two boys had been involved in the fight, he did not yet know if their battle was a coincidence or a part of the smouldering feud. He said Feno told him he had stabbed the Pottstown boy with a four inch blade but didn't know what he had done with it. The weapon has not been found. Feno did not say what had started their fight. Sunnybrook has long been a pop ular ballroom in this area with weekly name bands attracting as many as 7,000 persons to the ball room.
