Message At Glance WASHINGTON (UPD — President Kennedy’s education message at a glance: What He Wants Primarily what he anked last year—aid for school cc instruction, | higher pay for teachers, aid new sources of money ft?f college students. Why He Wants It “The federal government . . has 1 clearly not met its responsibilities i in educt, ion.” I “ Cost An unofficial estimate is about j $5 billion over three to four years. Outlook Chances for the new program are slim, due to the controversy between supporters of public school aid and private school aid. The j existing programs probably will be renewed.

Gantt Will Undergo Orientation Today CLEMSON, S.C. (UPI) — Harvey Gantt, an easy-going young Negro who received both handshakes and razzing when he crossed South Carolina’s public school color barrier Monday, goes through an orientation program today at Clemson College. The 20-year-old architecture student, who maintained a “B” average at lowa State, and other transfer students were to learn of the traditions of this old southern school in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. The majority of Clemson’s 4,250 students arrive Wednesday and Thursday for second semester registration. Classes atari Friday. More than 100 students and an equal number of newsmen and photographers were on hand Monday to see Gantt's court-or-dered enrollment at the college. About 100 state troopers had been stationed in the area but they had little to do. Gantt, an athletic-looking young man, stepped from a car and greeted the waiting newsmen pleasantly. "Hi, how are you?” he said, walking toward the registrar’s office. When photographers asked him to wave he did, prompting some razzing which never became loud. “Who did jrour dental work?” a student asked when Gantt smiled broadly for a photographer. "Oh, he’s so cute,” another student said in falsetto. With the exception of massive news coverage and security measures, Gantt’s registration was handled routinely.

Turn Wrong Valve, Basement Flooded FORT WAYNE, Ind. (UPD—Virtually normal operations prevailed today at the 22-story Lincoln Tower, Fort Wayne’s tallest structure, which was plunged into darkness when a wrong valve was turned by a basement flood. The flood Monday was caused off after a water main froze and burst, fire department officials said. When the water in the 6-inch pipe thawed out, it poured into the basement. Water stood 40 inches high in the building’s electrical control room, knocking out the equipment. The water was pumped out during the night ar.d n o extensive damage was caused, building officials said. But late Monday, hundreds of office workers were forced to walk down long flights of stars in darkness since elevator service was also halted. Angola Woman Dies OfCrash Injuries By United Press International An Angola woman’s death from traffic injuries spoiled Indiana’s first fatality-free weekend since 1958. Mrs. Vere Williams, 70, died Monday night of injuries suffered Sunday in an accident on Indiana 1 about 10 miles east of Angola. Police said the accident happened when drivers of a car in which she was riding and another traveling in the opposite direction were blinded by blowing snow. The cars crashed head-on Mrs. Williams died in Parkview Hospital at Fort Wayne. Her son, Wendell, 31, the driver, and another son, Donald, 39, were injured and taken to Cameron Hospital at Angola. Leroy Reinhart, 19, Pleasant Lake was hurt slightly. The death raised Indiana’s 1963 traffic toll to at least 71 compared with 55 this time last year. The last previous death was recorded Friday.

Pilot Dies At Controls, Plane Landed Safefly CHEYENNE, Wyo. (UPD — Three men, all employes of the American Bridge Co., Pittsburgh, Pa., met Monday at Cheyenne Municipal Airport. They were assigned to fly to a Minuteman missile site 50 miles northeast of Cheyenne—one of 200 under construction in the area for which American Bridge is providing steel. The three steel executives were Lester Peterson, 38, a former Marine, John Pawlack, 32, and Lester Laun, 34, all of Cheyenne. The pilot of the small Cessna 180 was Edgar Van Keuren, 54, Rapid City, S.D. The plane took off at 1:45' p.m. Thirty minutes later it was plummeting toward earth with a dead pilot at the controls. “I was sitting directly behind the pilot,” Laun said Monday night. “Peterson was in front next to the pilot. Pawlack was sitting next to me. About to Land “We were about to make a routine landing at one of the sites—--86. We dropped to 1,000 feet, circled the site and made a left bank looking for the landing strip. “Suddenly the pilot slumped over and we were headed toward the ground at a steep angle with our air speed increasing. “ ‘Pull up! Pull up!’ I hollered. “Les instinctively took over the controls. He grabbed the wheel and pulled it straight back. We had enough air speed so that we went right back up. “We later estimated we missed the ground by about two feet. It was very, very close.” Peterson, an assistant project manager for American Bridge, had never handled the controls of an aircraft before. “I had full control of the airplane after I got it back in the air,” Peterson said. “I began ,to experiment with the plane and its controls. Then I contacted our mobile unit which acted as a gobetween with us and Louis Domenico.” — Talked in for Landing Domenico, owner of a Cheyenne air service, then “talked in” Peterson to a safe landing. “American Bridge called us when they got word he was in trouble in the air,” Domenico said. “I went into the tower to tell him how to land the plane. “The light airplane is exceptionally stable. It’s just a matter pf the - man not losing' his head, which Peterson didn’t. I got him on tower radio and he oriented 1 himself and brought the plane to the field “We had him circle the field and drop down to landing altitude. I told him such things as where to begin his descent and how to do it—l did not have to correct him much after he started down. He did a real good job. He was a good sound-thinking man,” Domenico said. It took 20 minutes to “talkdown” Peterson and his nervous -passengers. The plane’s propeller and landing gear were slightly damaged. Van Keuren later was pronounced dead on arrival at Laramie County Memorial Hospital in Cheyenne, the apparent victim of a heart attack.

Unusual Report On New Frontier

United Press International NEW YORK (UPD—President Kennedy is “the man” and the first lady is “the man's hat” in the latest assessment of the New Frontier. Secretary of State Dean Rusk is “the man’s man, a wig” and Adlai E. Stevenson is “a tight wig, or nob, who preaches Sam's sermon at Wordland” (the United Nations). Arthur "Schlesinger Jr., Dean Acheson and McGeorge Bundy are described as “spare wigs,” Defense Secretary Robert McNamara as “the man’s express heat” and J. Edgar Hoover as “the man’s local heat.” The unusual assessment of the two years of the New Frontier appears in Life magazine as a special report called “The Hipster’s View of Washington.” It is the longest special report ever published by this magazine. Yet it is too short. Kennedy’s clash with Roger Blough is called “The Steel Chorus.” “A nervous scene,” the evaluation begins. “The man vs. the Hard Jacks. The HJ’s have big eyes to blow expensive. The man does a flip and jumps salty. ‘Cool it on the bread!’ he says. Then he wails a TV chorus for the gigging class and the HJ’s cool their eyes. It’s a crazy score for the man. But the cats who finally get cut lay out a late ace and blow the bread block (Wall Street) down the man’s konk.” In everyday English, this means that a domestic crisis began when U.S. Steel announced a price increase. The President charges the increase is not necessary and attacks the industry at a televised news conference. The steel industry withdraws its in-

crease but this action is followed by a plunge in stock market prices. Other passages are: “Medicare, Pillsville;” “Strictly from Dixie,” on Ole Miss integration; “on the road,” on recurring crises, “the other cats,” on world leaders, and “sugar blues” on the Cuban missile crisis. This unusual report was not written by a beatnik but by a respectable business executive. His name is Elliot Horne and for many years he has been hypnotized by the sound and meanings of words, whether they are written by James Joyce or spoken by a jazz musician at Birdland. "I think hip is a beautiful word,” Horne said. “To be hip is to be aware of all the things around you, the good things, the ugly things.” When asked how he would describe Albert Einstein in hip talk, Horne said: “The cat walked in and laid the world out on a fraction.” ACCEPT REPORT (Continued from Page One) Boone as one district, and Clinton with Tipton in another. The other two witnesses before the apportionment committee were Jacob Roberts, vice president of the Indiana AFL-CIO and Mrs. Claude Thomas, state legislative chairman for the League of Women Voters. , The labor spokesman asked for immediate reapportionment solely on the basis of population, as specified in the present constitution. Mrs. Thomas objected to the idea of having the Senate reapportion the House. Neither objection caused any revision. The Senate, where the GOP I

does not have sufficient votes to pass the plan, probably will hold its first reapportionment hearing about Wednesday. The Democratic senators are to caucus on reapportionment today and then are expected to take up President Pro Tern Russell Bontrager’s offer to call a meeting of the Legislative Apportionment Committee, which he heads, at their convenience. Compromise Plan Seen Indications are the Senate will enact a compromise plan calling for both immediate reapportionment—to be tested in the courts—and a constitutional amendment. This would leave the final compromise work up to a joint committee of senators and representatives. A bill strengthening the Indiana Civil Rights Commission is scheduled for passage in the Senate today. The measure apparently will sail through in its present form, since two amendment efforts were defeated on second reading Monday. The bill gives the commission, created by the 1961 Legislature, power to issue cease and desist orders. An attempt to remove a clause which exempts charitable, religious and fraternal organizations from the provisions of the bill was beaten even though Sen. Roy Conrad, R-Monticello, the GOP caucus chairman, charged the exemption was “a compromise with hypocrisy.” Sen. Robert Brokenburr, R-Indi-anapolis, only Negro member of the upper chamber, said he was not satisfied with the bill but felt it was the best that could be expected to gain passage. Brokenburr and George Diener, R-Indianapolis, Monday introduced a bill appropriating SIOO,OOO for a state observance of the 100th anniversary of Emancipation Proclamation. Insurance Firm Bill The Senate Monday defeated, 18 to 26, a bill which would have given the Legislative Advisory Commission access to certain restricted information about the condition of insurance companies.

TUESDAY, JANUARY 29, 1963

The bill, backed by Sen. James Spurgeon, D-Brownstown, member of an LAC study committee which was denied the Information for its research, defended a provision in the bill which exempted the lawmakers from criminal liability for leakage of the information, similar to the liability of the In surance Commissioner. But Bontrager spoke against this, saying he thought the legislators should be subject to the same penalties as the commissioner. A bill which would freeze property tax rates at the rate to be charged this year was introduced in the Senate by two Indianapolis Republicans, Sens. Wendell Martin and Robert Brokenburr. The bill relates to the total charged within any municipality but concerns the state, township and county rates as well as the city rate. Martin said the aim of the bill is to set a ceiling and that the individual items of the levy could be raised or lowered under the terms of the bill, just so the total as fixed by the State Board of Tax Commissioners went no higher. Other Senate bills: —Exempt taxicabs from the sixcent state gasoline tax, a proviso which Sen. John Ruckelshaus, RIndianapolis, said would extend to these vehicles the same benefits given city busses two years ago. Sen. James Spurgeon, D-Browns-town, was co-author. —Create a county school distribution fund in Lake County to aid school districts rich in children and short on property values. Sen. William Christy, D-Ham-mond, said it would aid 11 Lake County school districts and was expected to ease the route to school reorganization. Lake re- . jected a one-unit plan, 10 to 1, and so far has not achieved reorganization. Fern Tonic Even bouse ferns like their “spot of tea” now and then!
