(AP) - A young Tulsan was killed and his wile critically injured Sunday when a violent explosion leveled their six room brick house as they pre pared breakfast. Killed was Charles R. Conwell, 21. His wife, Caroline, 17, is hos pitalized in critical condition. "We are convinced the blast was caused by a natural gas leak under the house from an alleyway service line which, connected with the kitchen range," said Fire Marshal Earl Wagner. The blast was felt a mile away. It shattered windows in houses several blocks around in the mid dle class neighborhood and heav ily damaged residences on either side. W. B. McKim, an uncle of Con well, said it appeared the victim may have been lighting the kitch en range when the blast came. He said Mrs. Conwell was in the dining room preparing to serve breakfast. Raymond Tucker, who lives next door was thrown from bed by the blast and cut with flying glass. American Day Founder Dead SAN DIEGO, Calif. (AP)-The founder of "I Am an American Day" is dead. The Rev. Dr. A. Watson Brown, SO, collapsed and died Sunday shortly after he finished teaching a Sunday school class in nearby National City. Dr. Brown was the retired pas tor of the First Baptist Church in National City and had served oth er churches in Marshall, Mich., Covina and Sacramento, Calif. l'He conceived the idea of "I Am an American Day in 1937, pro posing to the Sons of the Ameri can Revolution that a day be set aside to honor those who became citizens through naturalization. President Roosevelt officially pro claimed the observance soon alt- if 15 years. If he makes it, he vill be the hottest dog in history. The law of averages is against he approximately 400 dogs of the AEC being used in a 15-ycar ex periment on the effects of radia tion. The average life of a dog, say commission experts, is 7 to 10 years. And the laws of nature, as cur rently interpreted, say that not even the average dog can stand i he amount of radiation the com mission's animals will be exposed to. But Dr. C. L. Dunham, director of the AEC Division of Biology and Medicine, said he has "a hunch that the last dog may live as long as 15 years from birth." "Every time you set up a biol ogy experiment, nature has a way of fooling you," Dr. Dunham said. If the doctor's hunch is right, the beagle or foxhound that sur vics is likely to be so hopped - up vies is likely to be so hopped - up 3 rocket. Dr. Dunham explained the ex periments to the House Appropri ations Committee during recent hearings on the AEC's fiscal 1060 budget. He elaborated in a sub sequent interview. Two groups of dogs are being used in the tests, one group of beagles at the University of Utah and another group of foxhounds at the University of California School of Agriculture at Davis. There's not a mongrel in the lot. "They have to be the best," Dr Dunham said. Except for the addition of a lit tle radium, plutonium, strontium 00 and thorium to their diets from time to time, the dogs eat what the average well-cared-for dog should eat. "They have a very, carefully planned diet," Dr. Dunham said. They seem to be enjoying a normal dog's life, too, the doctor explained, although from time to time one of them will pass out permanently from an overdose of something or other. The experiments have been go ing on since 1951. Dr. Dunham said he believes that when the results are all in or the last dog is all out "We will have a very good idea of what actually is a permissible body burden for any of those elements in the human body." SHOESTRING REPUBLIC The ribbon-like form of Chile has given this country the nick name of "shoestring republic." Close to 2,700 miles long, it has an average width of only 87 miles.
