He was a senior at Chiloquin High School last year. Navy Planning Smo Missiles WASHINGTON (AP)-The Navy !s contemplating installing launch ers for its Polaris missile in merchant-type ships as well as sub marines. It still resists Air Force ' sug gestions mac tne tiymg service should have over-all strategic command of all missile systems including the Polaris submarine Adm. Arleigh A. Burke, chief of naval operations, told a House Appropriations subcommittee the Navy has been doing some re search on possible surface ship types that .could profitably be fitted to fire the Polaris. This 1,500-mile missile, still being de veloped, was originally designed for use from submarines either on the surface or submerged. : Burke, in closed-door testimony made public today, said that if a surface ship intended just to fire the Polaris was wanted, mer chant ships of 5,000 to 7,000 tons had considerable advantages. Provision is being made also, he (aid, to equip modernized cruisers with Polaris . launchers, achieving a dual-purpose ship. Ike Presented Book On GOP WASHINGTON (UPI). - Two Republican party leaders today presented President Eisenhoweri with a paperback book intended to underscore the difference be tween the GOP and the Demo cratic party. . - The book, which will go on sale m book stores and newsstands on Lincoln's Birthday Friday, is the text of the report issued last fall by the Republican Committee on t'rogram and Progress. ' The committee sought to outline goals and policies for the nation up to 1976. Sen. Thruston B. Morton (Ky.) chairman of the Republican Na tional Committee, and Charles H Percy, who headed the committee writing the report, presented the 40,000-word volume to the 'President. The report was originally made public last October. Percy told reporters that the report showed the difference be tween the Republican and Demo cralic parties. Asked how he would define the dillerences, Percy replied that the theme of the GOP report was to place more reliance on the in dividual to solve his problems himself or to get them solved at a lower level of government in stead of taking them to Washington, Anastasia Controversy Rages After Forty Years; Court May End Dispute Editor's Note: Forty years ago this month, a Berlin police ser geant jumped into a canal to res cue a young woman attempting suicide. In a hospital later she mumbled that she was the Grand Duchess Anastasia Nikolaevna, daughter of the last czar of Rus sia and only survivor of the mas sacre of his family by the Bol sheviks in 1918. Is she a member of royalty or a Polish peasant or adventurer? The controversy which has ranged for years fi nally may be settled by a Ham burg court. By ROBERT MUSEL HAMBURG, Germany (UPI) When the assassin Yurovski led the Russian royal family down in to the lower floor room of the house in Ekaterinberg (Sverd lovsk) chosen as their place of execution he observed a grisly protocol. Czar Nicholas 11 sat on one chair with his sickly son, the Czarevich Alexe, on a chair be side him to the right. The Czar ina sat on another chair with her four daughters grouped about her They did not know why they had been summoned from their beds on that bloody night of July 17, 1918. They did not know the picked squad with Yurovski had been issued with new revolvers, that in the woods nearby, at a mine pit called "the mine of the four brothers" there was sulphuric acid and gasoline for destroying their bodies so that royalists would never have even a single relic about which to rally. When the slaughter was done, and even some of the hardened killers were sickened a soldier tried to turn over the body of one of the women and she screamed Another soldier stepped forward and smashed at her face with his rifle butt. Was this girl who screamed the 17-year-old Grand Duchess Ana stasia? Did the rifle butt kill her? Or did it merely crush her jaw and teeth and leave her uncon scious? Does Anastasia still live today Recently I stood in the hilltop village of Unterlengenhardt in the Black Forest of Germany. Above a closely fabricated fence of saplings I could see the upper part of a small green hut per haps fifteen feet square once used for storage by a German army unit. In this hut lives a true worn-. an of mystery. Councilmen vict Selves CARTHAGE, Mo. (AP) - Three Carthage councilmen voted them selves out of office and out of a chance to seek election again in April, says City Attorney Vernie Crandall. The city's five wards were re- districted by vote , of the council last Nov. 9. In changing the ' boundaries, Councilman Scott Campbell was huffled from the 5th ward to the 3rd, Max McCann from the 4th to the 3rd, and Harry Williams from the 3rd to the 2nd. The city attorney ruled Monday night that the three do not hold of fice now. Further, Crandall said, they can't be candidates in the spring election because they must be residents of a ward six months to qualify. . The election is April 5, lust four days short of six months since last Nov. 9. 1 Since 1933 she has been suing to have herself declared Nikol aevna, daughter of Czar Nicholas II. Her opponents are members of the royal house of Hesse whose members include the Queen of Sweden and Earl Mountbatten of Burma, and Princess Andrea of Greece who is the mother of the Duke of Edinburgh, husband of Queen Elizabeth of Britain. Thev say she is" a Polish peasant ad venturess, and they deny that money is involved. She claims that in the confusion of the charnel house, with the murder squad desperately anxious to dispose of the evidence of their crime, the bodies of the Roman ovs were not checked as thev were piled on a truck, for the ride to the funeral pyre and she was hidden by two contrite Red guards. Then, delirious for weeks, she was taken in a cart across Rus sia and to safety in Romania. No one in the village has seen her since last summer, with the exception of Fraulein Isa Mayhof who brings her meals. Her only contact with the outside world is the telephone and only a tiny handful of people know her num ber. I obtained it and called her. "Who arc you?" said a voice in good English. Before I could reply the phone switched off. A few yards up the road in a modest white cottage her own magnificent castle of Siebeneichen is lost in Communist east Ger many a nurse gave Baroness Monica von Militz, the closest friend of the pretender, an injec tion against a heart condition so she could talk to me. The baroness believes implicitly that the woman is the real grand duchess for instinctive rather than factual reasons "If you know the difference between royal and aristocratic manners, ' then you know she is who she purports to be." .! The trail to Unterlengenhardt began in this city where the de cision on her identity will be handed down in the grey-brick civil court building. Meanwhile those who are neutral in the case generally call her "Mrs. Anna Anderson," a name she used when she was in the United States in 1928-1930. If she loses, said her attorney Dr. Kurt Vermehren, she will sue again at the first opportunity. But if she wins he leaned across the table and said: Then we will sue to establish her identity as the Czar's heir in England. And when this is as sured we will ask the English banks to turn over to us the mil lions of dollars they are holding in one or another of the royal Romanov accounts. He smiled as he mentioned esti mates that the fortune might be anything between 70 million gold rubles (58 million dollars) and 40 million pounds sterling (112 mil lion dollars).

Charyk has admitted to House investigators that human errors were behind some failures in the Titan intercontinental ballistic missile program. Testimony made public today by the House defense appropria tions subcommittee also disclosed that the Bomarc antiaircraft mis sile successfully destroyed only one supersonic target in 10 test shots. Rep. Daniel J. Flood (D-Pa.l said Titan launching crews had been guilty of "inexcusable and appalling errors in personal judg ment" in at least two firing fail ures of the multimillion-dollar ICBM. Charyk admitted under intensive questioning by Flood that "there have certainly been human errors that have resulted in damage to certain missiles."
