Even more important is Bridge

which oicned its door to 10 re

Sub Search
Intensified
'PORTSMOUTH, N. H. (UP1I-I
The Navy today intensified the
search for the submarine Thresh
er; spurred on by the possibility
that the shattered hull of the sub
may have been located. ,
A Navy court of Inquiry met be
hind closed doors again to gather
evidence it hoped would determine
what happened to the $45 million
nuclear vessel April 10.
A flotilla of Navy and oceano-
graphic ships used super-sensitive
sonar equipment and underwater
cameras to conduct a yard-bv
yard search of a 300-yard area
near where Thresher made her
fatal plunge with 129 men aboard
220 miles off Cape Cod.
Navy officials disclosed last
week that photographs of the 8,
400-foot deep ocean floor ihowed
dobria which could have como
from a sub torn apart by extreme
pressure.
Marine scientists and Navy au
thoritics were cautious about iden
tifying positively the objects plvo-
tograplied by cameras lowered
from the research vessel Atlantis
II.
' "The pictures by Atlantis U
showed debris dense enough to be
the missing submarine, but the
pictures in themselves aro not
conclusive," a Navy spokesman
said.
"However, 'side looking" sonar

that the debris In the area could

They will obviously take time to

cause the mental health associ
ation is strong, always a sign of
community concern." Dr. Nenno
explained. He praised the Mon-
mouth County Mental Health As
sociation and the executive direc
tor, Mrs. Jannie Milt, who ral
lied the community to underwrite
a professional salary for t h e
house, and to contribute all the
furnishings and volunteer serv
ices. The local mental health
group is a unit of the National As
sociation for Mental Health.
For several years the Red Bank
house was a resocialization cen
ter run jointly by Marlboro Hos
pital and the mental health as
sociation. Then Dr. Nenno had
his dream of a more complete
center for recovering patients
Cooperation crystallized it in rec
ord time.
On his European tour Dr. Nen
) was stimulated by mental
health projects visited in Britain
and the Netherlands, and when
he came home he gave up his post;
as chairman of psychiatry at the
Seton Hall College of Medicine in
Jersey City "to plunge right into
it. In Nottingham, England, he
lound this practical and com-1
passionate program for geria
tries:
"I don't like that word, or 'sen
ior citizens': but picture an eld
erly lady living alone. A bus driv
cr calls for her, goes in to makej
sure the gas is turned, off and
locks the door. Then he takes
her to a center where they check
her medically and give her a good
hot midday meal. She spends thej
day usefully with other older peo
ple. If she lives with young rela
tives, the center also takes care of
her when they go on vacation."
So Dr. Nenno's dream adds up
to a mental health center for geri
atrics, another for children, and
a Bridgeway House in every
community.

man, also quoted news reports as

showed the Russians were build
ing a naval base at Banes on the;
northeastern Up of Cuba. He asked
Kennedy if such reports were
true.
Sen. Hubert Humphrey, D-Minn.
replied to Miller's questions by
calling them "simple, mischievous
nonsense, without any foundation
whatsoever." He said the GOP
leader was engaging in "monkey
business and shenanigans to

Humphrey said that "apparently
the GOP strategy is to raise

Senate Votes Approval
For Milk Price Support
SALEM IUP1I The Senate
voted 21-8 Monday to approve a
milk price support bill. The meas
ure now goes back to tne Mouse
for agreement- on Senate amend
ments.
Approval came auer ia muiuieo
of debate. Two attempts to sena
the measure back to committee
were defeated on voles of 19-10
and 20-9.
Sen. Arthur Ireland. R-Eorest
Grove, said controls were needed
to protect producers, distributors
and consumers.
He said the bill would not in
crease prices to consumers, and
that retailers were the only ones
to benefit from lack of controls
Sen. Thomas Mahoney, D-Port-land,
spearheaded the drive to get
the measure sent back to com
mittee. "Don't 'ct tlie camel get
its nose under the tent," ' he
warned as he cited opposition to
the meas'ure.
Son. Harry Boivin, D-Klamath
Falls, said the measure was need
ed to keep an ample and constant
supply of milk for consumers.
Sen. Walter Leth, R-Satem, said
1,500 Oregon milk producers were
depending on passage of the bill.
Ireland argued successfully that
attempts to get the measure sent
back to committee were attempts
to kill the bill.

SALEM lUPP Oregon Stale
University was criticized at the
legislature today for using main
tenance crews to perform con
struction that witnesses said
should be let out to contractors.
Tlie Ways and 'Means Educa
tion subcommittee was urged to
approve a bill that would limit
maintenance crews to projects
costing $1,500 or less. The present
limit is $10,000.
Witnesses for unions and con
tractors both said OSU has been
evading the law by breaking up
jobs into parts costing just under
$10,000 in order to use cheaper
maintenance crews.
Kor example. Rep. Edward
Whelan, D-Porlland, said, a chick
en brooder worth more than $10,
000 was built by maintenance
crews because the university de
cided to consider the building and
the heating plant as two separate
projects.
Witnesses said the University of
Oregon, on the other hand, has
cooperated by letting bids accord-
ing to the intent of the law.
Chancellor R. E. Lieuallen and
Secretary of State Howell Appling
Jr. opposed tlie bill.
Lieuallen said it could raise the
cost of small campus projects by
25 to 30 per cent and would re
move needed flexibility. He said
OSU president James Jensen has
promised to see that the full in
tent of the present law is follow
ed from now on.

ADAPTAM.E...
HEAT!
Building or remodeling? Remember ELECTRIC HEAT, utilizing pure, clean energy rather
than messy burning fuels, is the only truly new and modern way of heating under the sun!
And it's the most adaptable. There are electric heating devices simple, inexpensive and worry
free to fit homes of all sizes, shapes, and decor and to fit every living area, every need,
within the home. A few to choose from:
RADIANT CEILING CABLE: Provides
exceptionally even heat. Completely concealed
in your ceiling. Very inexpensive to install.
ELECTRIC BASEBOARD: Installed
around outside walls, take up no valuable
wall space. Created to blend with any decor.
Especially adaptable to new rooms and wings.
ELECTRIC WALL PANELS: Especially
adaptable to small rooms. Installed in or
on walls, with decorative grills or flat, heat
radiating surfaces.
HEAT PUMP: Heats and air-conditions,
according to your needs! Thermostatically
controlled heat pump means complete and
automatic climate control in your home! Very
economical to operate. Initial cost compares
favorably with traditional (and out-moded)
central heating and cooling systems.
AND THERE ARE MORE! Investigate
thoroughly before you decide.
