Tell Russians Whal Became Os Sputniks Scientists Quote Witnesses Reports MOSCOW (UPD— American scientists attending the space conference here have told the Russians what became of major elements of their first two “Spytniks.” Dr. Luigi Jacchia of ( the Smithsonian Institution, quoting ness reports, said Sputnik II disintegrated 62 miles off Barbados and fell into the sea, carrying the remains of space dog Laika to a watery grave. Dr. Robert Jastrow of the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory produced charts of radar-computer plots to prove that the carrier rocket of Sputnik I fell in Outer Mongolia— not in Alaska or the western United States, as the Russians once claimed. Other Americans present at the geophysical assembly session at which these facts were revealed said there was "an immediate drop in temperature" in the crowded auditorium when Jastrow produced his data. Presumably the Russians already knew what really happenedto Sputnik I's rocket, since the claim that it landed on U.S. terrino questions were asked at the conference session. They displayed more interest in the story told by Jacchia, who said Sputnik II came apart after blazing through the atmosphere with a rainbow-colored tail nearly 60 miles long. ... One Russian asked whether any bits of "Muttnik” fell on land, “No. all fragments fell in the Atlantic,” Jacchia replied. "None of them reached South America." said the fate of Sputnik's rocket was determined by computer analysis of plots made by the long-range radar establishment in Westford, Mass., and Britain's royal radar establishment. He projected a chart of the rocket’s last flight on a screen. “As you can see from the track, it fell in Outer Mongolia,” Jastrow said. Russia's tracking procedures are mostly secret, and Americans who had hoped to get Soviet data on the orbits of Sputniks II and 1 have been unable so far to do so. "The trouble may be that this is a somewhat classified project for the Russians,” one American said. “It is also possible that they are planning to publish all their findings at the same time for maximum propaganda impact.” If you have something to sell or rooms for rent, try a Democrat} Want Ad— they bring results.

Detroit Boy Drowns In Community Pool Brawley, 10, Detroit, Mich., drowned Sunday evening while swimming in the Brook Confmunity Pool, Authorities said the boy, who was spending a vacation with his uncle and aunt, dived in shallow ‘ water and apparently was dazed ‘ by a blow on the head when he 5 struck the bottom of the pool. 5 His 6-year-old cousin, J. B. Koon, saw the accident and went home ' to tell his parents instead of re- ‘ porting to other swimmers, and ’ the boy was dead before he was 5 found. Early Democratic Convention Favored WASHINGTON (UPD - Democratic National Chairmap Paul M. Butler favors an early date for the 1960 convention because the Democrats “likely will consider a new face” as their presidential candidate. Butler told a news conference Monday he prefers a date in July for the nominating convention. Butler was asked if his "new face" comment ruled out twotime loser Adlai Stevenson as a potential candidate. He firmly I replied: “No.” SOVIET (Continued from Page one) message was dispatched Friday. Sources said possibly some delay may have been caused by Khrushchev’s surprise trip to Peiping for consultations with Communist China’s Mao Tse-Tung and other Red Chinese leaders. But Khrushchev returned to Moscow from the fourday secret meeting Sunday night, and it was considered almost certain he had been informed of the 1 details of the Western notes before- ' hand. Consultations among the U. N. ! Security Council members on arranging a summit-council meeting < were suspended pending Khrush- 1 chev’s reply. • 1 i < FATHER j (Continued from page one) it’s going to take, what the preliminary will be all about and when the case will go to trial,” he said. , Meanwhile, Laura Mowrer, the , 29-year-old divorcee who was the ( alleged new object of Teel’s affec-f ; tions, remained in hiding. Apparently nobody but Missn Mowrer's attorney knew she was and he refused to reveal her hiding place.

McClellan (D-Ark.) said they had no information on whether the burning of Frank Kierdorf and the threat against his uncle had any connection with their appearances before the committee. Herman Kierdorf was called aS a witness last week as part of the committee's current investigation of alleged gangster infiltration of both labor and management groups in Detroit's coverall laundry business. Both Herman and Frank, in his last - year appearance, invoked the Fifth Amendment to avoid answering questions. McClellan said the attack on Frank Kierdorf was further evidence “of the depravity of thes< underworld characters who art attempting to exploit legitimate unionism and business.” Kennedy said the committee al ready was primed to questior Hoffa about the Kierdorfs. Theii activities comprised one of the matters McClellan said would re quire "a lot of explanation” bj the Teamsters boss. Kennedy recalled that Donald Skaff, a Flint rug dealer, testified last year that his store, his family and his employes were subjected to violence and intimi dation during an organizatior drive by Frank Kierdorf's local If you have something to sell oi rooms for rent, try a Democrat ■ Want Ad— they bring results.

BURNED (Continued from Page one) Ihe was convinced Kierdorf ujid [not know the men, although 'admitted there were a number of discrepancies in the story. The Senate Rackets Committee entered the investigation by sending twq men from its Detroit office to attend the questioning of Kierdorf. In addition,' the committee scheduled hearings in Washington today with James R. Hoffa, Teamsters Union president, as the chief witness. Got Jobs From Hoffa According to committee counsel Robert F. Kennedy, Kierdorf got his job with the Teamsters Union from Hoffa, as did his uncle, Herman Kierdorf, another Teamsters official. Only last week Herman Kierdorf had been before the Senate committee and, like his nephew, had invoked the Fifth Amendment in refusing to answer questions. Before going to Washington, Herman had quit his job as business agent for Teamsters Joint Council 43 in Detroit. Herman received an anonymou l ' telephone call Monday threatening “you ---, you're next,” shortly after Frank Kierdorf had arrived, terribly burned, at the hospital. When first questioned at the Aospital, Frank refused even to I Btell his name. Even after Herman and his son, Frank Jr., 30. arrived and identified him, he refused to admit his name. Authorities had determined his identity through prints taken from his fingertips. The tips were about the only parts of his body that, weren’t burned, apparently because he had clenched his fists after being set afire. -Breaks Long Silence All through Monday Kierdorf alternately rose from semi-con-sciousness and sank back but grimly refused to tell what had
