Small Town Life Is Not So Fasy TECUMSEH, Mich. UPI — Life in a small town may not be as relaxing as some people would have you believe. At least, that's what the University of Michigan found during its long study of this southeastern Michigan community of about 10,000. More than one big city businessman, confronted with ulcers and jangling nerves, has had his physician tell him to relax and take it easy, perhaps adding the suggestion that the quiet life in a smaller community would prove the cure.

Foes Peck Away At Foreign Aid WASHINGTON UPI — Senate economy forces continued to batter at President Kennedy's foreign aid bill today, confident they could make further reductions in the program already trimmed by $5 million. While Senate leaders hoped for a final vote this week, aid foes, led by Sen. Wayne Morse, D-Ore., gave no assurances that the 14-day old debate on the bill to authorize another year of military, economic and technological aid would end by Friday. Sen. Ernest Gruening, DAlaska, was expected to lead the battle today with an amendment to end all military aid to Latin America except for prior commitments. The bill would allow' the President to continue arms assistance if he considered it in the ’nterests of U.S. national security.
U.S., Russ Relations Very Low WASHINGTON UPI— SovietAmerican relations hit their lowest point since the nuclear test ban treaty today with the United States prepared to increase pressure for the release of a Yale professor arrested by the Russians on spy charges.

offing.
The United States was ready to call off Moscow negotiations, scheduled to begin Tuesday, on a cultural exchange agreement unless the Kremlin quickly released Prof. Federick C. Barghoorn. And the State Department put the chill on a group of visiting Russian tourists and officials, warning Americans not to get too deeply involved wdth
them.
The United States has protested bitterly the arrest of Barghoorn on what the State Department calls “groundless” charges. Officials made it clear they felt the case had broad ramifications going far beyond question of the individual concerned.

Photo 'Hof Lead In Blast Probe INDIANAPOLIS UPI — Chief investigator Bernard Sweeney of the state fire marshals office is hopeful that a photographer who took a picture of the Hallow'een explosion which killed 71 persons at the Indiana State Fairgrounds Coliseum might be able to shed some light on the disaster. After belatedly learning of the photograph, now appearing in a national magaziae Life, Sweeney said Wednesday he was “very anxious” to question the photographer who was identified only as Carl Defenderfer Jr. Sweeney said he felt the photograph lent support to his theory that there \*as only one explosion with tw'o large bursts of flame rather than the two separate explosions which most witnesses have described. He said Defenderfer, if he can find him, is the only other witness he now plans to call before a fire marshal’s hearing on the explosion. He added, however, that other information could change his plans.
