Khrushchev, in a jovial. wise-cracking mood, met for 3 hours today with high U S. and British negotiators in the opening of a Kremlin conference that could break the East-West dead lock on a nuclear test ban. U.S. chief negotiator W. Avercll Harriman and British Minister of Science Lord Hailsham, drive after the meeting to the U S .Embassy where they presumably compared notes on the talks. There was no immediate com ment from either Western delega- llon' . , 1SUI Hiia M. U13S.IUMJU VIICII U1C next meeting would take place in the talks which are expected to ilast about 10 days. But Khrushchev s surprise move in heading the Soviet dele gation at the opening of the nego tiations raised Western hopes that some form of agreement perhaps an accord for a limited test ban might emerge from the crucial conference. Khrushchev, in opening the three-power conference this after noon, enthusiastically pumped the hands of presidential envoy Harri man and I.ord Hailsham and re marked: "Where do we begin? Perhaps we should begin by sign ing an agreement first. In a bantering aside, the Soviet leader turned to Harriman and said: "You did right when you kicked the British out of Amer ica." Khrushchev then turned to the British chief negotiator and said: "They acted with wisdom, they kicked you out." Mumbles Reply Ilailsham's mumbled reply was not heard distinctly. The Soviet leader had especial ly warm and personal greetings (or Harriman. U. S. undersecre tary of state who had dealt face-to-face with Josef Stalin while ambassador to Moscow during World War II. Khrushchev. 69, vigorously shak ing the 71-year-old Harriman's hand, exclaimed: "You are ab solutely blooming, what are you doing? Are you counting the years backwards? "1 began doing that a long time ago, answered Khrushchev with a broad grin. In the light-hearted exchange be fore lie doors were closed on the first session of the historic con ference, Khrushchev told Harri man: "I am surrounded by the imperialists." Large Conference Room The three-power negotiations aimed at reaching agreement on at least a partial nuclear test ban opened in one of the large Krem lin conference rooms adjoining Khrushchev a oflicc. The Eastern and Western nego- tialors occupied 12 chairs on botli sides of the table, with transla tors sitting at cither end. On the walls of the room were a map of the Soviet Union and portraits of Marx and Lenin. U. S., British and Soviet flags were arranged on the center of the negotiating table. Khrushchev's decision to take a personal hand in the talks was one of tlie reasons for optimism among diplomats here that suc cess may be in the offing alter many months of deadlock on the nuclear testing issue. Hailsham, Under Secretary of Information Booth Issue Given Limited Support MOUNT SHASTA Tlie fate of Mount Shasta's tourist information booth was still undecided at tlie fly 11 chamber of commerce meeting. Orbell Apperson Jr., chairman of the booth committee, stated his group recommends the booth be kept open on a limited basis.

Gromyko, also present for the courtesy meeting, was all smiles Diplomats expected Khrush chev to sit in at the opening ses sions ol the negotiations, then turn over the job to a subordi nate. But his presence added to other signs that have made ob servers here optimistic that East and Weil can reach their first major agreement since the Aus trian state treaty of 1955. They included: Russia's growing split with Oimmunist China and its appar ent determination to put Khrush chev's "peaceful coexistence" policy ahead of all other consid-j erations, including the unity of the Communist camp.

He said he gave each of the children H0 for bus tickets that night in Bakersfield because he didn't think he could drive them all the way to Okla homa. The two youngest children gave their money to Carol Ann for safe keeping, but when the group ar rived in Williams the following day Carol Ann said the money was gone. Alford said a bitter argument stalled over the money, but he calmed down, bought the children soft drinks, and started out with them from Williams. The construction worker said he turned off onto a dirt road about two miles from Williams, drove another mile and parked about 300 yards off the dirt road. There the argument over the money re sumed, and Alford said he would find a home for the children in Williams. Reached for Rifle Alford told the children he could no longer afford to take care of them, but the youngsters said they would never leave him. Alford said he got angry again and reached under the floorboard of his truck for the rifle. He said Carol Ann started to run and he fired at her. Alford told authorities that the next thing he remembered was that he was sitting on the ground with the two guns in his hands both fired until they were empty.
