Administration Working To Stop Nuclear Arms Race WASHINGTON (UPD Presi dent Kennedy and his top associ ates are trying to work out a "serious and precise" formula to ' halt the global arms race and lessen the danger of global holo caust.

The administration hopes to have ready by midsummer a comprehensive proposal for gen eral arms control to present to the Soviet Union and other major powers.

Brit College Professor Decides To Be Professional Clown EAST LANSING, Mich. (UPD Dr. Charles Boas, assistant pro fessor of geography at Michigan State University, has decided he will be a lot happier as Charlie the clown. That's why a family of six will pull up stakes here sometime this week and hit the sawdust trail. Boas, ah assistant professor since 1U55, decided last fall to let his year of education which led to a doctor's degree rest while he sought out his hobby.

JILiL. ain and Russia are resuming their marathon negotiations on one segment of the arms prob lem. This concerns a proposed treaty to ban nuclear weapons tests under discussion off and on for 28 months. The lengthy quest for amis con trol which might lead eventually to complete disarmament always has broken down in recent years in disagreement on the basic is sue of control and inspection pro cedures to police the program. Now the general disarmament picture has been complicated by Red China's insistence upon being consulted and France's break through on the nuclear front. On the question of control and inspection, the United States and see if he would like to be a clown the year-round. "It isn't that he doesn't like teaching or that the university hasn't been good to us," said his wife, Kathleen. "Quite the con trary. He loves teaching. "This is a hobby that grew to the point where he wanls to try his luck at making a career of it," said Mrs. Boas. The resignation Boas turned into MSU officials last September becomes effective Monday but the family hasn't set a definite date for leaving. "Our boy just had his tonsils removed and isn't scheduled to have his final checkup until next Friday," said Mrs. Boas. The boy is Charles. 5, whom the family calls "Toby." the other children are Laura, 4; Mary,-18 months, and Elizabeth, 2 months. First stop after they leave here will be Scottsboro. Ala., where the Penny Bros. Circus has its winter quarters. Mrs. Boas said she was "just as anxious" as her husband for him to try his luck at being a full-time clown. "I think he's good. He's not a fool-type nor an acrobat, but he has some wonder ful devices and routines." Boas joined the MSU faculty after being a teaching fellow at the university while taking his doctoral degree. The 34-year-old native of Harrisburg, Pa., took his undergraduate work at. Lata yctte College and received his master's degree from the Univer sity of Virginia. He also formerly served as a research analyst in Washington with the Chief of Naval Opera tions.

DRUGS WITH A REPUTATION allies have insisted that any arms limitation agreement must pro vide for foolproof procedures to guard against violations of the pact. . The Soviet Union has demand ed that first there be a formal agreement on disarmament be fore any attempt is made to set forth procedures to police the treaty. The West says this is too risky. The Kremlin claims West ern inspection and control propos als are nothing but plans for dis guised espionage. Recurrent efforts to negotiate disarmament have tended to take on the aspect of East-West propa ganda battles, with each side seeking to convince the world that it is the only one sincerely work ing for control. President Kennedy's top disar mament adviser, John J. McCloy. and other officials in the field recognize that secrecy is one' of the big military assets of the So viet Union and its closed society. 11 is an asset which the Kremlin is not expected to bargain away cheaply, if at all. Some U.S. offi cials feel that it may never be possible to get the Russians to abandon their pathological dread of surveillance to the point of ac cepting a reasonable inspection system; When President Eisenhower in 1956 offered his "open skies" idea for aerial inspection ot all terri tory to guard against surprise at tack and police a disarmament agreement, Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev had a blunt answer for the American ambassador: "Does Eisenhower think I'm a fool. I know where his military installations are; he doesn't know where mine are." Communist China's growing might presents Western officials with another problem in the dis armament picture. President Ei senhower had assumed that if an agreement were reached with the Soviet Union, the Kremlin could persuade Red China to abide by terms. Khrushchev apparently encouraged that idea. Now, however, Chou En-Iai has said that Red China will recog nize no disarmament agreement or nuclear test ban unless it has had a hand in the negotiations Secretary of State Dean Rusk has acknowledged that this pre sents a difficult problem, since the United States refuses to rec ognize or deal with the Peking re- aimc. But Rusk admittea pumic- ly that it would be impossible to conceive of a workable disarma ment agreement if Red China were not included. The United States for many years considered that an agree ment on disarmament would be impossible until the political dis putes between Russia and the West were removed. However, under British pressure, the Amer ican government came around to the idea of trying to reach arms and other agreements despite in ability to settle political differ ences. The Kennedy administration will continue this effort. But it hopes to come up with some new strategy and tactics which offer greater hope (or winning Soviet acceptance. The odds, in diplo matic circles, arc not considered good. Penney's Smttj, HERALD AND NEWS, 3-19 "My club is writing assays on 'A Part of the World I'd Like to Visit? I picked Ritiby's Fur Shop!" Solons Hear Scientists Debate Vaccine Values WASHINGTON (UPD - Chair-! man Kenneth A. Roberts said Saturday his House health sub committee will study a scientist's plea for federal laws to speed production of a polio vaccine that can be swallowed instead of in jected. The committee Friday wound up hearings on the subject with a sharp argument between two noted scientists Dr. Albeit Sabin and Dr. Jonas Salk. Salk, discoverer of the injected vaccine now being used, said his type of remedy was doing fine and should continue to be the prime ammunition in the fight against polio. But Sabin said that while the Salk vaccine is doing a good job, only his own oral version, which is not yet in production in the United States, could eradicate the disease. Roberts.

He said the hearings "demonstrated at least one thing Sabin vaccine is sale and effective." The Public Health Service has testified that it will take about six months for the oral vaccine lo be produced in quantity by U.S. firms. '. Federal standards (or manufac ture of the drug were scheduled to be announced at the end of the month. Sabin said Friday many companies were waiting to sec how rigid the licensing require ments would be before deciding whether to produce his live-virus vaccine. Salk appeared before the com mittee to plead for an epidemic prevention campaign using his killcd-virus vaccine developed about five years ago. ,He said experience shows the nation Is winning the battle against polio and could deliver a knock-out blow if every youngster under 15 was vaccinated. Sabin, disagreeing with his fa mous colleague, said the Salk vaccine could never eliminate a 'hard residue" of polio cases and appealed for all-out federal en dorsement of his discovery.
