See Increased Hopes Os Test Ban Agreement WASHINGTON <UPD — Key senators saw increased hopes today for progress toward a nuclear test ban agreement as part of Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev’s ’‘honeymoon” with the Kennedy administration. These lawmakers also came away from a closed-door session with Llewellyn E.

Thompson and most members of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee were close - mouthed about,, details of the two-hour and 15-minute session late Monday. But it was known that the meeting covered virtually every phase of U.S.-Soviet relations, including the possibility of a meeting between President Kennedy and Khrushchev. Committee Chairman J.

Fear Lumumba Death To Give Russia Excuse UNITED NATIONS. N.Y. (UPD — Western diplomats expressed fears today that the death of Patrice Lumumba would give the Soviet Union an excuse to scuttle new United Nations’ plans for the Congo and start pouring direct aid to left-wing rebels in the shattered nation. U.S. Ambassador Adlai E. Stevenson, who had been trying to work out a new Congo solution in private talks with Soviet Ambassador Valerian A. Zorin and other U.N. diplomats, huddled with his aides here during an adjournment of the U.N. Security Council. The Security Council, which received news of Lumumba’s death about an hour before its scheduled meeting Monday, adjourned almost at once until Wednesday to permit private consultations between U.N. delegates. Meeting Unlikely Despite Stevenson’s efforts to reach agreement with Zorin on the tense Congo crisis, informed sources said there was no sign the two would meet again before Wednesday s session. Diplomatic observers said the state was set in the Security Council for the first clash between President Kennedy’s ad : ministration and the Soviet Union. Zorin said Monday that Russia and other Lumumba supporters must now “reappraise their position on all questions which the Security Council and the U.N. organization have to discuss." “We have not the slightest confidence in the secretary general nor his staff after all that has been committed in the Congo and Katanga." Zorin said. Calls For Inqniry Secretary - General Dag Hammarskjold called for a “full and impartial” investigation into the death of Lumumba and his two aides. Zorin charged Hammarskjold’s statement was “hypocirtical" and said the secretary-general bears responsibility for Lumumba’s death. He added that the deposed premier was murdered “under the blue flag of the United Nations." Zorin's statement considered ominous by several diplomats, could result in a demand for the withdrawal of the United Nations from the Congo, followed by either outright Soviet intervention of more subtle supplying of African countries that might take it on themselves to help Lumumba’s followers.

Advise Dancing To Avoid Doldrums By HORTENSE MYERS United Press International INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — The high divorce rate resulting from the middle-age marital doldrums can be lowered by a simple and pleasant formula, in the opinion of Ray Sexton Jr., Indianapolis. Sexton and his wife, Beverly, I have been instructing groups of couples in ballroom dancing for the past seven years. Their students and ex-students are mostly married couples, many in the ! middle-age bracket. Mainly they are business executives, professional persons and their wives. “Married people tend to fall into a routine,” Sexton said. “The man has his job and his life, and the wife has hers. Then one day they realize they have very little in common. It wasn’t anything they planned, they find jit has just happened. But by doing something new together, like learning to dance, they become enthusiastic about living. They learn to know each other again.” Consultant Agrees A family life consultant. Dr. Wynne Arnholter, Indianapolis, corroborated Sexton’s point, noting there are two danger periods at which marriages are most apt to skirt divorce. One is early in the wedlock, before the bride and groom settle into a marital routine. The other comes about 20 years later, when the children are grown, and the man and wife ' realize- they are growing older, and have grown apart. The Sextons do not give individual lessons but concentrate their efforts on teaching couples to dance together. The lessens are held in the hometowns of the students, and the classes become the nuclei for a whole new social world for the participants. In addition, the students, become eligible for an unusual and active “alumni” club. The Ray Sexton Club leases one of the best ballrooms in Indianapolis (the Indiana Roof) five times annually for dances limited only to students and ex-students. Some of the more proficient students stage dancing exhibitions that rival professional shows. The next such dance will be Saturday. Outing an Ohio Boat The club also holds a gala outing each year. Last summer the members leased an Ohio River, (boat, the Avalon, for a dancing cruise. This yetfr, Sept. 9. the club plans a trip to Chicago. The members will spend the weekend at a hotel (Conrad Hilton) and go dancing at the Aragon ballroom. The Sextons have taught about 1,400 couples to dance in the last six years. They have conducted classes at Franklin, Columbus. Bloomington, Shelbyville, Edinburg, Seymour. Brownstown. Greenfield and Plainfield and plan to start their first course in Indianapolis Feb. 21. In Brownstown, Sexton estimated one-tenth of the entire population enrolled in the dance classes. . Sexton, a native of Sehlbyville, met his wife while he was manager of an Indianapolis dance studio and she was an instructor. They have four children, aged 7, 5, 3 and 2. all of whom are learning to dance.

Venus Shot Holds Terrifying Angle

WASHINGTON (UPI) - Chairman Overton Brooks, D-La., of the House Space Committee said today there were “terrifying possibilities” in Russia’s apparently successful attempt to send a satellite toward Venus. Brooks pointed out that the Russian feat marked the first time a rocket had been fired from a space station in orbit around the earth. “If they can aim this instru-ment-loaded satellite to Venus,” Brooks asked, “how long will it be before they can aim a bombloaded satellite toward earth?” Brooks, who has called for a “full discussion” of the Venus shot at a hearing Wednesday, said in an interview he had long agreed with the maxim that those who control space will control the earth. Station On Moon Besides the possibility of future satellite bombs, Brooks saw the Soviet Union’s Venus rocket as being a “major step” toward placing a manned station on the moon. Space experts have felt for some time that using a space station in orbit around the earth as a launching pad might prove to be the easiest and most direct method of getting man to the moon. Brooks’ forebodings about the Russian achievement were echoed by two other members of the House Space Committee. Rep. James G. Fulton, R-Pa., said the Russian achievement was “a very big step” toward getting a manned expedition on the moon’s surface. He said the moon eventually might serve as an ideal space platform for “tremendously accurate” anti-missile and satellite missiles. Has Strategic Value Fulton said he believed the moon would prove to be of “great strategic and tactical importance in the controlling of interspace or that which lies relatively close to the earth.” He rejected, however, the theory that Russia’s Venus shot meant satellite bombs could be developed in the near future. He said trajectory problems of such a weapons system would be infinitely complex /■•••• .< aoMent But Kep. Emilio Daddario, DConn., said there was no question that the satellite bomb was “within the realm of feasibility.” He said the Soviet shot showed that such a weapon “is practical.” “The danger to our security is that we have no control over what a vehicle like the Russians latest can be used for," Daddario said. Marion Missionary Is Killed In Africa MARION, Ind. (UPD—The Rev. Lilburn E. Adkins, 63, a missionary formerly of Marion, was injured fatally in an attack by South African robbers while he and his wife walked home from church Sunday night. Word of Rev. Adkins’ death came in a UPI dispatch from Johannesburg, S.A., this morning, a day after the World Gospel Mission, a Methodist Episcopal Church organization with which the Adkinses were affiliated, received word that the couple had been beaten badly. The Johonnesburg dispatch said Adkins and his wife, Florence, were walking home from church when they were attacked by natives who beat them, took their clothing and personal effects and left them lying in the street. Adkins died Monday in a Krugersdorp hospital. Mrs. Adkins was treated in the hospital for a broken arm and head injuries. The Johannesburg dispatch said the Adkinses’ daughter, Mrs. Betty Ruth Ogden .and her husband arrived today from Nairobi, Kenya, where they are missionaries. They came to visit her parents. She was not told immediately that her father was dead. First word of the beatings came by cablegram to Michigan to the Adkinses’ other daughter. Circumstances of the beating were not learned, but Mrs. Barker believed her parents were on their way home from services. They have been working for the Methodist Church serving natives in more than 130 mine compounds in the Union of South Africa with headquarters at Krugersdorp. near Johannesburg. The Adkinses were with the World Gospel Mission from 1938 to 1952, assigned to Kenya, Africa. They lived in Marion from 1952 to 1958 and became affiliated with the Methodist Missionary Board. Visible Persuasion NEW YORK (UPI) — A central figure of focus in the design of a tile floor can stimulate socialization among hospital patients. And when the furniture’s grouped about the focus point, the patient gets a sense of security.

Major Sculptures Found Forgeries NEW YORK (UPD—The Metropolitan Museum of Art has confessed sadly that three “major Etruscan sculptures” which have thriled laymen and intrigued experts for the past 30 years are forgeries. James J. Rorimer, director of the museum, said Monday the works, so impressive that an entire room was devoted almost entirely to them, were the creation of a 20th Century forger. They supposedly dated from about 500 B.C. The objects are three terracotta figures of warriors of impressive size and heroic attitude. The first is a helmeted head nearly five feet high. The other two are figures eight feet and six feet high. They weight 800 and 500 i pounds respectively. Since their public display by the museum in 1933 the figures have been the object of considerable suspicion by archaeologists. — TTie distrust of experts was finally confirmed by the investigations of Joseph V. Noble, operating administrator of the museum and an expert on ceramics. He proved that the black glaze on the statues was produced not by an ancient Greek oxidizing method but by the modem dyeing agent manganese dioxide. It also appeared that the statues had been deliberately broken into many fragments before they were placed in the firing ovens to support their authenticity when they were presented for the appraisal of museum experts. The museum would not disclose what the figures had cost nor where they had been obtained. But it is known that the price was high and it is assumed they came from Italy. They will for the moment remain on display, but with a notice describing their reduced circumstances. The museum officials did not explain why it took them nearly 30 years before checking on the authenticity of the sculptures, If you nave something to sell ot trade — use the Democrrt Want Ads I They get Bis results.

New Orleans Reigned. By Love And Lunacy NEW ORLEANS (UPD — Love laughs and lunacy reigns today in this old French city. It’s Fat • Tuesday—Mardi Gras Day. Ridiculous costumes, a seemingly endless chain of gala parades, singing and dancing in the streets are the order of the day as the city looses all its wildness and wickedness the day before Lent starts. The’ Zulu King begins the day’s revelry by stepping off a boat at a Mississippi River dock to lead his thirsty entourage on a whirl through the city, invading bars and taverns in a day-long drinking spree. A sober racial conflict already has put a damper on the Zulu parade this year, the only Negro carnival activity which has not been cancelled in observance of “common purpose" with equality movements. Negroes have been rarely seen in parade crowds and 115 Negro social events have been cancelled, including several expensive grand balls. Dozens of Negro bars have served notice they would not entertain Zulu paraders. Four Negro bars were closed today—the biggest day of the year for the tavern trade. Police Monday squelched rumors that Negro youngsters were stocking up on icepicks and lye in preparation for violence against the Zulus, and advertisements paid for by Negroes urged Negroes to stay in their homes all day. Official observers reported parade crowds steadily increasing, but did not compare the numbers with carnival throngs of years past. Police said the carnival season has been the most orderly in recent history. The last pre-Mardi Gras parade Monday night bowed to St. Valentine’s Dav. which this year coincidentally is Fat Tuesday also. The mystic Krewe of Proteus presented a love-theme parade of 20 gaudy floats.
