Indiana Club Formed Supporters of Sen. John F. Kennedy for president have formed a statewide organization called the Indiana Kennedy-for-President Club. Organizers are state senator Marshall Kizer, of Plymouth, third district Democratic chairman, and Albert O. Delusa, 11th district (Marion county) chairman. The third district includes South Bend. Both districts, like the Decatur area, have strong supporters for Kennedy. The club’s program is intended to reveal to the senator the extent of his strength and support in Indiana. Polls have shown him substantially leading other contenders. The club officers intend to encourage Sen. Kennedy to become an active and announced candidate for the presidency, and to convince him that he should enter the Indiana primary. Sen. Humphrey already has a nucleous organization in the state, but his group has not been particularly active. Sen. Stuart Symington’s backers have not actually organized, but they include many of the state’s most influential political leaders. At the same time, Adlai Stevenson, the 1956 and 1952 choice, has been talking with former delegates in private talks, and he is more and more prominently mentioned. There is, apparently, at least one Decatur person who is adamantly opposed to Sen. generally known, but his book, “Profiles in Courage” disappeared a few weeks ago from the shelf at the Decatur library. The city street department found it in one of the waste containers on main street, and returned it, undamaged, to the library. Actually, the book is a very good one, and was written while the senator was recuperating. We, as people, should always remember one thing when we discuss possibles for the Democratic nomination next summer—whoever is nominated by the Democrats will be a better man for the job of president than Nixon. Even Adlai Stevenson is a proven executive, having served as governor of our neighbor state. Nixon, on the other hand, a veteran politician, has had his hands stained by “contributions” which nearly had him removed from the ticket in 1952; only the "cry-baby” television appearance saved him. He is not the morally strong type of man needed for the job. Although a Quaker, he swore to his vice - presidential oath, rather than affirming, as is his church’s belief. His experience has been mainly in the legislative line, and his associations (for example, he was playing golf recently with a well-known movie star who had been stabbed the night before by his wife in a drunken brawl, when the newspapermen came to interview the star) are definitely not of the level of a president. It is hoped that the Republicans will nominate a man better qualified, both morally and politically, for the job.

Abandons Attempt To Save Freighter ST. COMBS, Scotland (UP!)— Capt. Jukka Vuorio today abandoned his single-handed attempt to save his stormgrounded freighter Anna and allowed coast guardsmen to take him off the ship by breeches buoy. Vuorio, tough 62-year-old veteran of many storms like the one that stranded the 1,045-ton Anna, stayed on her spray-soaked decks for more than 24 hours to try to get her refloated. His 17-man crew was carried across 100 yards of frothing waves to shore, but Vuorio ignored the coast guard’s pleas, his owners' orders and threat that the old ship might break up. The Anna had been his home for 25 years and he did not want to give it up. The skipper, called “stubborn” by his friends back in Finland, weathered the night on the ship. But he signalled that he would leave just after noon today. He gave in to the sea, just as his fellow Scandinavian, Capt Kurt Carlsen, was forced to do when his Flying Enterprise sank despite his efforts to save it seven years ago in other British coastal waters. All through the night, while his creaky old ship wallowed in the hammering, wind-lashed waves, its wheelhouse smashed and its radio gone, the skipper roamed the deserted decks of the ship he loves, doing whatever a lone man could to keep “my Anna” alive Coast guardsmen on shore stood by through the long grim night waiting for a signal from the doughty captain that he was ready to give up and come ashore. At daybreak today, a message was sent in a bottle over the breeches buoy line, urging Vuorio once again to come ashore. “No,” came the firm answerHours later the captain got still another message—from his bosses, co-owners of the ship in Finland: “Give up the ship.” Vuorios answer again was a stubborn “No.” The Anna’s captain was taking care of his zeloved ship. Tuesday he took care of his crew. First mate Esko Kivamaki was last to leave the grey-haired skipper. “There were tears in his eyes as he said goodby,” said the 33-year-old sailor. “He really loyes that old ship.” Three-Car Accident Near Geneva Tuesday The sheriff’s department and state police investigated a threecar mishap at the Wabash River bridge, about 1.5 miles north of i Geneva, on U. S. 27 Tuesday at 11 ia.m. No one was injured but damI ages were estimated about SI,OOO. i Thomas Gantt, 32, of Atlanta, Ga., who was towing one new au- ■ tomobile with another 1960 model, ■ failed to stop in time to avoid hit- : ting the car driven by Daryll D. , Burkhalter, 17, of Berne, who had I stopped at the bridge to allow a | northbound semi-trailer to pass through the bridge. The two new cars struck the Burkhalter car and careened into the guard rail on the west side of the roadway, causing the major damage. Nearly all the damage of SI,OOO was afflicted to the cars driven by Gantt.

Says Soviet- Russia Ahead In Technology TERRE HAUTE, Ind. (UPD— Dr. I.M. Levitt, director of the Fels Planetarium at Philadelphia, Pa., and an expert on space and science, said Tuesday that the Soviet Union is far ahead of the United States in space and rocket technology. Levitt told an Indiana State Teachers College convocation that the Russians will be able to make a soft landing on the moon by next year and may be able to send a man around the moon and back by 1963. Furthermore, he said, Russia might even succeed in setting a man down on the moon’s surface by 1965 or 1966. Levitt said such Soviet space accomplishments are possible because of the tremendous potential and payloads of their rockets. He said the United States is about five years away from a successful rocket contact with the moon. He was asked to speculate when the U.S- may hit the moon. “I think by 1965 or 1966 with our Saturn complex if it works out. Or if we depend on the Nova rocket it will be 1968,” Levitt said. He said the United States has not placed enough emphasis on i space program of any sort, and recent administration budget cuts have. “hurt us very much.” “If we want to compete with Russian space achievements,” Levitt said, "we will have to spend money and concentrate our activity in certain areas instead of spreading it around.” 20 Years Ago I Today • 1 T“7° Dec. 9, 1939—R aym on d G.

At Least 13 Are Killed By Eastern Storm United Press International A few New England snow flurries remained behind today to remind easterners of their worst snowstorm of the season. The storm and an accompanying cold snap struck the Atlantic Coast states with crippling suddenness and dropped up to 17 inches ot snow before sweeping out to sea. The storm’s departure raised five-foot tides on Long Island’s, Great South Bay — the highest since the 1938 hurricane. Dozens of beachfront homes were flooded. At least 13 lives were claimed by the storm. Searchers gave up hope for two Suffolk County, N.Y., men missing since Saturday on a fishing trip in the Atlantic off Fire Island. The sun and warm weather returned to Florida, which was chilled by sub-freezing temperatures for nearly two days of its valuable tourist season. Cross City, Fla., reported a 30 degree reading early today, buti the temperature hovered near 70 at Miami Beach. A school fire and two fire deaths were blamed on heaters seldom used in the nor-mally-balmy Gulf statePennsylvania’s Erie County was hit hard by the storm. The U.S. Weather Bureau there said more than 17 inches of snow" fell on the city of Erie during the two-day stormy seige. Rare winter showers fell on the southwestern deserts Tuesdaynight with Yuma, Ariz., reporting .41 inch—just short of the town’s normal total rainfall for December. ' Light snows were reported in Washington and Oregon, along the ’ south shore of Lake Superior and 1 in northern New England. The U.S. (Weather Bureau pre- ! dieted warmer temperatures today for the Plains, nothern and ’ central Rockies, the upper Ohio 1 Valley and most of Florida, with ’ falling readings expected in Nevada, northern Minnesota, lower 1 Michigan and from the Ozarks to Tennessee xFair weather will predominate ! over most of the nation, the ■ weatherman said, with scattered • showers in southern California, over southern Nevada and Utah i into Arizona, from northern Calil fornia northward and in westen Texas. A few snow flurries were ex- ; pected from northern Nevada i through eastern Oregon and Washington into Montana, in the Great Lakes and through the mountains of New England and Colorado.

U.S. Demands Reds Pull Out Hungary Force UNITED NATIONS (UPD — Speakers from many nations line up today behind a United States demand in the U.N. General Assembly that Russia immediately withdraw its 50,000-man garrison from Hungary. The second day of assembly debate on the brutal Russian suppression of the 1956 Hungarian freedom revolt coincided with a Credentials Committee meeting that could for the third straight year resul in refusal to accept he credentials of the Hungarian delegates to the United Nations. Since 1956 the committee, after examining the bona sides of the Hungariah Communist delegation, has not accepted them but Hungary’s representatives have been allowed to attend U.N. sessions. By a quirk of procedure, the Credentials Committee customarily meets toward the end of the assembly session. The assembly was scheduled to adjourn Saturday, but unusual interest in the Hungarian revolt debate made it appear the session will extend into next weekSentiment in the debate ran heavily in favor of a 24-power Western resolution deploring the “continued disregard” by Russia and the Hungarian authorities of U.N. resolutions appealing for withdrawal of Soviet troops and the holding of free elections in Hungary. U.S. Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge Tuesday told the assembly there was one reason the Soviets have not withdrawn their 50,000 troops from Hungary—“to make the Hungarian people accept a regime which was imposed from the outside and which they thoroughly hate.” •No New Polio Coses In State Last Week INDIANAPOLIS (UPD-The Indiana State Board of Health added no new polio cases to its 1959 records last week, and the year's total remained 149. The 149 cases since last Jan. 1 compered with 137 a year ago and a five-year median of 158.
