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.

about possible competition by post
exchanges with local stores. 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.
The Army and Air Force now
seem to be launched on a cam
paign to forestall any new effort
to end operation of the system al

in the United States.
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."

WSSther Chief
WASHINGTON (UPD Dr.
Helmut E. 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,

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.
