World's Fair Opens Today In Brussels World Exposition Is Opened In Belgium BRUSSELS (UP). - Belgium l opened its 650 million dollar worlds Fair today, its cherished ideal of international cooperation apparently a casualty of the cold war and U.S.-Russian rivalryBlandly disclaiming any “spirit of rivalry.” Russia wrapped its mighty glass and aluminum pavilion in a last-minute outdoor phalanx of heavy farm equipment and bulldozers in an obvious effort to overwhelm the neighboring, graceful American exhibit. The Russians have been cramming in the heavy exhibits for days. By the time the first gates were thrown open to the public at 8:40 a.m. today <2:40 a.m. e.s.t.) their pavilion was by sheer mass the most impressive area in RUMMAGE SALE, METHODIST CHURCH BASEMENT, 9:00 a. m. to 4:00 p. i m. on Friday, April IBth and < 9:00 a. m. to 2:30 p. m. on ■ Saturday, April 19th.

Two hours after the first members of the public passed through the gates. King Baudouin and the Royal Family arrived to make the occasion official in several hours of speechmaking and ceremonies before members of the Belgian government, tiplomats and officials of the 47 participating nations. A brilliant day of festivity marked the inauguration of the I first international exposition since the famous “trylong and perisphere” fair in New York City in 1939.

Sentenced For Life In Double-Slaying i > INDIANAPOLIS (W — William Paul Brownd. 41, Indianapolis, received a life term in Indiana State Prison Wednesday in connection with a double-slaying here last Nov. 14. Brownd was sentenced after pleading guilty to the slaying of Maudie L. Britt, 44. He was accused of shooting to death Mrs; Britt, an ex-girl friend, and William M. Smith, 42, Bridgeport, at Mrs. Britt’s trailer home. “I know I done wrong, but I still didn’t mean to kill Maud,” said Brownd, a bulldozer operator. He was captured in Gallatin, Tenn., five days after the slayings ; above the glittering 500 acres of exhibits. Towering above everything was the symbol of "Brussels 58,” the atomium, a gleaming assemblage of nine huge aluminum spheres arranged as are the protons and neutrons in a single atom of iron magnified 150 billion times. By an overnight miracle of mops and brushes and hammers and saws, the fair looked completed. Some exhibits may not be finished until next week, but both the Russian and American buildings were ready and sparkling,

Industries Staging Shows For Salesmen Designed To Boost Sales Now Lagging CHICAGO (UP,*—lndustries are dabbing on the grease paint ■ and striking up the band. They’re hitting the road with full-dress musical shows designed to inspire their salesmen to boost lagging sales during the recession. The production have original lyrics, catchy dance numbers and comedy skits. — They have girls, too. But these definitely are not *‘<ir!ie shows” for the pleasure of visiting firemen. Jack Rheinstrom, spokesman for one producer of industrial stage shows said today. Every show has a real, serious message. Rheinstrom aid. and it adds up to: “Sell, sell, sell.” In one show now on the road, for example, a petite brunette dressed like a Salvation Army drummer beats a drum while another pretty gal emerges frorp rags into a dazzling, figure-reveal-ing costume—and symbolically to victory over the recession. .Rheinstrom estimated that business .will pay out 10 million dollars this year for at least 100 major industrial shows. That’s 20 percent more than the record eight million dollars spent last year for such shows He attributed the increase to industrial firms’ search for an “anti recession weapon.’’ Standard Oil, John Deere and Co., Libby-Owens-Ford, Theodore Hamm Brewing Co., and Overhead Door Co. are among the companies that already have put shows on the road in 1958, Rheinstrom said. Despite the fact that industries pay from $5,000 to as much as $1,500,000 for the. .shows, Rheinstrom said, the public never sees them. “They’re seen only at conven- , tions and sales meetings." he said, "and are strictly for yie eyes and ears of America s key , salespeople,” There’s a reason for. the secrecy. Rheinstrom said companies use the shows to introduce new products and sales promotion campaigns to salesmen months ahead of their public unveiling* “This is a kind of sales reviva| —designed to stimulate and -excite,” Rheinstrom said. "It does not tell salesmen how to sell, but inspires them to sell.” Contracts Awarded For Purdue Projects Campus Construction Contracts Awarded LAFAYETTE *UP >— Purdue University trustees Wednesday awarded contracts for five campus construction projects costing more than I’4 million dollars.
