Youthful Explorer Rests From Ordeal TERRE HAUTE, Ind. (UPD— Tom Karr, a 17-year-old high school sophomore who waited 23 hours in the depths of an unfamiliar cave until rescuers arrived, rested from his ordeal today and promised his parents "I'm never going to do that again." Karr went exploring Sunday afternoon in Porter’s Cave near Gosport, using only elementary i of spelunking which he had learned from books and a few ventures in commercial caverns. His carbide lamp went out 800 feet inside a narrow passage and the youth couldn’t get it going again, although he wore a groove in the flesh of his right thumb trying to spin a flint wheel. Karr tried briefly to grope his way out in the darkness, then decided it was wiser to just stay put and wait for help which he was certain would arrive, for he had left a suitcase with his clothing at the cave's entrance and told a quarry worker from whom he had borrowed a pair of boots where he was going. Help did arrive eventually, but it was nearly a full day after he entered the cave. When two experienced cave explorers from Indiana University, one of them a professor, reached the youth he was wet and chattering from the dampness and cold. But Karr was otherwise unharmed and vowed he would not let* his experience keep him from future cave explorations. But Karr "said next time he would not do his exploring alone. “I was a little scared," he admitted. “Next time I’m going to try a flashlight or a gasoline lantern.” A chocolate ice cream cone was his first food in more than 24 hours. Karr was reunited with his anxious parents, the Robert Karrs, in

Pres. Eisenhower Signs Legislation WASHINGTON (UPI) — President Eisenhower has signed legislation providing $3,225,813,000 in new foreign aid funds and extending the federal civil rights commission for another two years.

Congress tacked onto the bill a rider providing for a two-year extension of the Civil Rights Commission which otherwise would have died Nov. 8. Storm Worst To Hit Japan In Centuries NAGOYA, Japan (UPI) — Endless rows of wooden coffins and sodden straw mats for the dying. Stricken peasants moving past in never-ending search for their families in this twice dead city. The story of typhoon Vera, most destructive storm to hit Japan in centuries, could be outlined in statistics: 1,799 dead, 1,953 missing, 8,073 injured, 970,000 homeless. But its horror lay in the faces of the people, their struggle for food and water, the dysentery which ravaged their bodies, the glazed look on their faces as they searched the rubble for those who were lost. It lay in the face of an old woman dressed in threadbare kimono, her lips pressed tightly against toothless gums, watching intently as the lid of a coffin-like box was raised. She steeled herself and then peered within. Wordlessly and with a slight shake of head she moved on to the next box and the next and he next There were not even enough of the wooden boxes to hold the bodies in this city which suffered more than 1,000 dead. Some of the bodies lay on straw tatami mats, their faces covered with scraps of cloth. Long lines of survivors rudged past these boxes through the day. wondering when help would arrive from Tokyo. But communidations were smashed by the fury of a storm that set off landslides and floods. The wooden boxes themselves were hurriedly built for the gruesome -chore of identification. The head end of each was hinged so it could be quickly opened and closed.
