Havens, in charge pf upper atmospheric measuring instruments, ' vetoed a suggestion that the rocket be fired with the smaller oxygen supply. Rosen credited the decision with adding the record breaking miles to the altitude. Brimstone deposits’ of Ixiuislana and Texas account for 90 per cent of U.

Parker said Brancato desperate- ■ ly needed money to fight extradition to Nevada and escape pprosecctlon for the holdup of a book--1 making office at Las Vegas’ Flamingo hotel last June and may have 1 been killed' when he tried to cob ' lect a debt from a gang overlord. ‘ The slaying of the two Tony’s f was the newest bloody chapter in the struggle for power in the local gang world which was organised > in the 19’W’s by the MAFIA, Rlcfl--1 ian society, as a ’ b unch of a national crime syndi- • cate.
