JULIE NEWMAR -ru JERRY LESTER i ptlNG RICHARD tm? CRUSADERS ( HERALD AND Services Put Oh Drive Informing Public Of PX WASHINGTON (AP) - The Army and Air Force are putting on a press agent campaign to tell the public and local merchants about their post exchange system sometimes the target of con gressional critics. The two services have Issued a new handbook on the subject for public relations officers. It is a joint Army-Air Force regulation and, like others, is signed by Gen. h. h. Lcmnitzer and Gen. Thomas D. White, respectively Army and Air Force chiefs of staff. From time to time, questions have been raised in Congress Missile Sub Work Speeded By Navy WASHINGTON (AP) - The Navy is working on plans to speed up its Polaris missile submarine program, says Secretary of Dc lensc Thomas S. Gates Jr. But the actual speed-up will hinge on results of the first firing of a Polaris from a submerged submarine, set for this summer. Other tests are scheduled in the meantime, he said, including the armed firing this month of a Po laris from underwater but not from a submarine. .lust about the time Gates was telling a news conference about Polaris prospects Thursday, Vice Adm. Hyman G. Rickovcr was telling a congressional subcom mittee that the United States is 'frittering away" its lead over the Soviet Union in atomic sub marines. He told a Joint Atomic Energy subcommittee that the American atomic sub program needs a big shot in the arm. He pictured So viet missile-launching submarines as a greater threat to the United States than intercontinental bal istic missiles. Rickovcr, who played a leading role in the development of the first U.S. atomic sub, said he would support heartily a bill by Rep. James Van Zandt (R-Pa) to build 100 more nuclear subma rines. Gates made these other points at his news conference: The Pentagon is considering the possibility of increasing the, num ber of Atlas intercontinental bat lislic missiles, but no decision has been reached. Present plans are for 10 missiles per squadron. If more are added, the number per squadron probably would be in creased rather than adding addi tional squadrons. The Bomarc B missile program is being reviewed but there "is no thought of junking" it now. A Bomarc B burned on its launching pad last week. It was the seventh time the lest program ran into difficulty. Senator's Pay Given To Wife WASHINGTON (AP) - Pay ment of $22,500 to the widow of Sen. Richard L.

In the United States, as well as over seas, the two services operate an Army and Air Force Exchange Service" to sell merchandise to military personnel and other spe cially authorized persons.

A preamble in the pamphlet says the over-all objectives of the public relations program are to make information "conveniently available to the public and ob tain public understanding and sup port of the post exchange system. It comments that "Congress has warned that abuse of the ex change privilege by those author ized its use will lead to loss of the privilege." It cautions service men against buying goods for un authorized persons and advises them not to "brag about lower exchange prices when patronizing civilian merchants. The pamphlet says that "the gratuitous release" of information is encouraged on such subjects as the size of the payroll for a PX. the amount spent by the PX in local procurement and the 'amount of money poured into lo cal communities as a result of concession activities." The 10-page guidebook says that 'Although the indiscriminate re lease of the following information is not encouraged because of pos sible adverse reaction to certain aspects" of the PX system, in formation can be released in an swer to specific requests on mat ters including: Beer sales volume "Publicity on this subject should be kept to a minimum. Any emphasis on beer trade, whether in photo graphs or in news stories, should be avoided. Emphasis should be placed, instead, on such informa tion as the number of soda foun tains, snack bars and the like." Information should avoid imply ing that PX's actively promote sales: "emphasis should be on the service mission of the exchange." Comparison of PX prices "with civilian store prices will be avoided."

Landsberg brings you today the glad tidings that the U.S. climate is getting'warmer. Landsberg is chief of the Weath er Bureau's Office of Climatology, and he has by no means taken leave of his senses. He concedes that "this March had been unprecedented" so far for mean weather. It has brought record low temperatures and rec ord heavy snows to many parts of the country. Brainy Pupil Gains Favor In Coal Area SHENANDOAH, Pa. (AP)-The high school honor student is com ing into his own in this hard coal (own in eastern Pennsylvania, the free-flowing wellspring of brawny football talent for decades. No longer is the high school "brain" taunted by the fellows and shunned by the girls in favor of the football star. At Shenandoah High School,' he has become an academic hero a big wheel of the campus. The new vchicie for academic recognition is "Project Tutor." It is described by Pennsylvania's top educator as historic at the high school level. 'Here is a program that gives rich meaning to the word 'honor' to honor students," says Dr. Charles H. Boehm, state super intendent of public instruction. 'I'm glad students other than the star athletes are becoming the school heroes." "Project Tutor" is an experi ment in (1) giving deserved rec ognition to honor students and 2 employing the talents of the top students to help along others with lesser marks. Under the program. 14 local members of the National Honor Society hold special half - hour tutoring sessions just before regu lar classes begin each Friday morning. Some 90 fellow students are attending the classes to brush up on subjects ranging from physics to stenography. Teachers assist with instruction al materials, give guidance to the tutors and occasionally sit in on the classes. But, for the most part, it's strictly a tutor-pupil show. Joseph Penn. a 17-year-old senior and president of the local honor society, came up with the idea of "Project Tutor" in ad vance of the midyear examina tions. "Some students had commented to me that they felt the need for help before the examinations. 1 thought about it and figured this was somching for the honor so ciety to tackle." He approached school principal Henry J. Zale about the tutoring idea. Zale, as if he had anticipated Joe's visit, reached into his file drawer. He came up with an account of how the University of Pennsyl vania carried on successfully the same type of program for aca demically deficient students at the college level. "It's turning out to be one of the finest academic programs we have ever devised," says Zale, Rubber and other valuable trees are increasing under supervised cultivation m Ethiopia.

Cascade 412 Main Says Climate But one nasly March doesn't establish a trend, and what Landsberg is talking about Is the long term climate picture. He has inst comDletcd a study of U.S. weather records for two 25-year periods, 1906-1930 and 1931- u.-,s Hh found that the nations avorapn annual temocrature in the second period was eight-tenths of one degree higher man inc year average for the first period. A rise of less than one degree may not strike everybody as much of a warming trend. But to a meteorologist, Landsberg said. "this is quite a rcmarxaoie change." If the trend continued for a century, he said, it would be as though the entire country had moved about 240 miles south. The chance in the U.S. climate is part of a world-wide warming- up which, Landsberg saio, ap parently is continuing. At least, he said, "there is no indication of any decided trend downward." Scientists aren't sure just what is causing the warm-up. Carbon dioxide put into the atmosphere by man with his coal and oil burn ing appears to be at least partly responsible. Small Car Claims Hit Manufacturers' claims tnat the new compact cars are economical were vigorously at tacked by a Detroit newspaper puousner wno spoxe at a con vention attended bv 12.000 ner- sons, includine 18 Oreson auto. moniie oeaiers ana tneir lami lies. The speaker was Phil P. De- Beaubien, publisher of the De troit Times, and the convention in Washineton. D.C was that ot tne National Automobile Dealers Assn. Declaring; that the compact car is not an economy car, DeBeaubien said, "It is not economical to buy and it is not economical to operate." He added that be was talkine specifically about American compact cars, not imports. TJooaomy' Lost "It is mv distinct recollee. tion that the industry was going to build -and claimed to nave built an economy car," he told the auto dealers. "Now it is natural to the essentials of economy that it would be a smaller car, or a compact car. My point and I hasten to it is that somewhere the word economy' izot lost and the 'compact' was substituted. . ." He said buyers are already finding that the compact car, in most instances, costs -more than the standard car without the power assists that are available. DeBeaubien sharply criti cized what he called 40-mile-to-the gallon claims, and re marked: "Nothing to it. mavhe. Just hire a professional driver and remove his shoes and socks.
