week, but no important accumulations were predicted. At dawn today, South Bend's snow depth was measured at 7 inches, but most of this was from previous storms. One-inch snows were common to most other portions of the state except the far south. Indiana’s worst traffic accident of 1963—a crash Sunday on a slippery road near Noblesville in which five persons were killed—was weather connected. Others of the 13 weekend fatalities and a 14th this morning were blamed on icy pavements. Temperatures crested Sunday at highs ranging from 29 at South Bend to 41 at Evansville, and the above - freezing temperatures melted much of the snow which fell that day or Saturday night. Overnight lows today ranged from 19 at South Bend to 25 at Evansville. Highs today will range into the 20s, lows tonight from 13 to 22, and highs Tuesday from the lower 20s to 31.

Six May Be First Jobless Astronauts

By ALVIN B. WEBB JR. United Press International CAPE CANAVERAL (UPI) —A half-dozen young jet pilots stand a good chance of becoming the world’s first unemployed astronauts. These are the men chosen last year for the Air Force’s DynaSoar space glider program. They are ready to take a ride through space any time. The trouble is, their space flivver isn’t finished. It won’t be for another two or three years. And if Air Force enthusiasm for the project—sometimes called simply the X 20 —continues to wane at the present rate, it may never be. The Air Force, it seems, has a roving eye for attractive man-in-space programs. About the time it seems ready to latch onto one, another good-looker appears. The chase begins anew. This has been going on for years and the Air Force is still grounded, as far as manned spaceflights are concerned. The Air Force’s infatuation with Project Dyna-Soar began when the space age was born in 1957. The object of the whole thing was to put an astronaut into space aboard a ship with a set of wings so he cou’d come down and land more or less where he pleased. Good on Paper It looked good on paper. But there were some problems—no rockets, for cne —and the Air Force lost interest. It had been caught up in a fascinating project called Mercury. The Mercury capsule simplified things. It had no wings and thus saved a lot of weight. True, its landing was a little erratic and thousands of men had to run around under it like so many firemen with a big net, to make sure the capsule and astronaut were recovered safely.

Russia Intent On Easing Os China Dispute MOSCOW (UPI) — Western observers said today the Soviet | Union appeared intent on keeping its political and ideological dispute with Communist China well below the boiling point. An 8,000-word editorial in the Sunday edition of the official Soviet Communist party newspaper Pravda hit hard on the call for unity in the Communist camp. | It included a carefully guardedi invitation to Communist China for i a meeting “at any level” to try i resolve their differences. i (The—official - Peking People’s | Daily issued whi t appeared to be | a negative response to the Russian offer today, stating that “there can be no reversing of the verdict repudiating the modern revisionists of Yugoslavia .. . the revolutionary forces of the world will under no circumstaces permit the export of counter-revolu-tion by the Tito group.”) (But the remark broadcast by the Communist New China News Agency, did not turn down possible Sino-Soviet talks and was not a direct rejection of the Russian offer.) The offer did not suggest specifically that Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev and Chinese Chairman Mao Tse-tung might be participants. But it left the possibility open. At the same time, however, Pravda made it clear the Kremlin expected Red China to abandon its condemnation of Khrushchev’s “peaceful co - existence” policy if the quarrel is to be resolved.

But it worked, as the Air Force could see—from the outside looking in. Mercury belonged to a new organization called the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. - » About two, years ago, the Air Force reunited with Dyna-Soar. Enthusiasm ran high. A model was built, and it looked like a flyable flatiron. A new rocket called Titan-3 was put on the development list, and a tenative 1965 launching date was picked. Even astronauts were selected —Maj. James W. Wood of Pueblo, Colo., Maj. Henry C. Gordon of Gary, Ind., Capt. William J. Knight of Mansfield, Ohio, Maj. Russell L. Rogers of Phoenix, Ariz., Capt. Albert R. Crews of Alexandria, La., and civilian Milton O. Thompson of Crookston, Minn. Gemini Comes Along Dyna-Soar rolled along until the federal space agency showed up with a new baby called Gemini. It was a space capsule a la Mercury, only more of it—enough room for two astronauts at a time. The Air Force cast covetous eyes. And when the federal space agency indicated late last year it might like to pull at least partially out of Gemini to concentrate more on the Apollo manned flight to the moon, the military boys leaped. What the Air Force proposed was to buy as many as seven Gemini capsules, to launch its own astronauts. Someone even went so far as to tag it with the rather odd name of “Blue Gemini.” If all this comes about, the Air Force and Gemini may be tied together starting in 1964. But it cannot finance two loves at once.

Dyna-Soar may—and probably will—go.

Western observers interpreted the editorial as a sign the Soviets want to keep the controversy with Peking from getting too hot. They said the Kremlin realizes the widening split between the Red bloc’s two giants benefits the West. Khrushchev himself minimized the dispute with Peking during talks with Canadian newspaper publisher Roy Thomson on Saturday. The premier said the West should not place too much stock in the long-range effects of the Moscow - Peking dispute. He stressed that it was merely ?a family quarrel and that the Soviet Union and Communist China are friends and will remain friends. U. S. Recognizes Iraq Government WASHINGTON (UPI) — The United States today formally recognized the new government of Iraq, three days after it overthrew President Abdel Karim Kassem. The State Department, in anouncing the swift U.S. move, also extended to the new regime “best wishes for success and prosperity” and expressed hope that “traditional ties of friendship” between the American and Iraqi strengthened.” The State Department said the action was taken after the new government, headed by Colonel Abdel Salam Ares, pledged that it would honor “international obligations" of the previous government. Equal parts of boiled linseed oil, turpentine, and white vinegar, applied with a bit of woolen rag and polished with a silk cloth, renews the finish on furniture and also helps tc conceal some of the smaller blemishes.

At present, delivery comes twice a day from Decatur. Since route six runs through Pleasant Mills, its carrier, Gerald R. Durkin, is a familiar figure at the post office. John Boch, Decatur postmaster, is a former carrier as are Jerry Price and Ray Kauffman; all four were present at the dinner. Shriner Visit - Vizard then recounted how Herb Shriner, the comedian, had stopped at the store three or four years ago in a search for antique store furnishings, so that he could open an authentic general store in Florida as a tourist attraction. Then introduced were Mrs. Kellv, who helped out while Mrs. Everett recuperated from a fractured hip; Mrs. Laura Davis, a friend and neighbor who had helped for years; her first baby sitter, Mrs. Leland Ripley, and her sister, Dora Shaffer, who helped during the first Bible school. Presentation Made The meeting then closed with a prresentation by the Pleasant Mills Lions club, after which the treasurer of the club, John Holloway, told how the club had used its funds to help the county TB program. buy civic music tickets for the Pleasant Mills music department, Adams county Red Cross, leader dog for the blind, IU cancer center in Indianapolis where 14 Adams county patients received more than 100 treatments last year, and where nearly 20 underwent diagnosis, and the eye bank, for corneal transplants, for the high school band, traffic lights at the school and more than SI,OOO for the Little, Pony and farm leagues.

Vote Resolution To Amend Constitution INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — The Indiana House adopted and sent■ to the Senate today by a vote of 79-7 a resolution to amend the State Constitution by removing restrictions which now prohibit more than one resolution to amend from being in various stages of passage at the same time. There was no debate as the measure came up for third reading and a final thO’”down in the house of origin. The House alsc approved on second reading with no debate and no amendment a resolution aimed at amending the Constitution to remove a two-term limit for county sheriffs. The sheriff amni.ument resolution earlier in the session stood in the way of .ntroduction of a Republican pr -uosal to achieve legislative reapportionment by constitutional amendment. As a result, the GOP killed the sheriff amendment and later reintroduced it over the protests of minority Democrats who contended it violated House rules. The measure to remove the one-amendment-at-a - time restriction obviously was aimed at avoiding some future situation similar to this year’s in which one proposed amendment" Ihat had moved part

of the way through its enactment process had to be killed to make way for another. The House also passed 87-0 and sent to Governor Welsh’s desk a Senate bill establishing a legislative committee to review procedures involvirg state administrative rules. The bill previously had passed the Senate 38-10 over some objections, but none developed in the House. Backers of the bill contended that administrative boards have been known to adopt as rules the content of bills the legislature rejected, and the measure was intended to curb such powers. ——— ——— - - If you have something to sell or trade — use the Democrat Want ads — they get BIG results.

WHY FEWER BABIES DIE TODAY Fifty years ago, one out of every 10 babies died during its first year of life. Today, infant mortality during that first year has declined to only one out of 40 babies.
