Surveyor Photos Show Moon 'Bump' As Mountain Crater
PASADENA, Calif. UPI — Vivid new pictures taken by America’s Surveyor mooncraft Sunday show that an earlier photographed lunar “bump” is a mountain crest climbing 500 feet above the moon’s horizon. Scientists at Caltech’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory Identified the range as part of an ancient “ghost crater” which had been detected by earth-based telescopes. The pictures were among a Sunday morning transmission of 651 “sharp and clear” photographs received by JPL’s Goldstone Tracking Station in South era California’s Majave Desert At the conclusion of Sunday’s fourth day of picture taking,Surveyor had returned 2,053 photographs. The spider-like spacecraft
soft-landed on the moon Wednesday night in a first-try success that pulled the United States at least even with the Soviet Union in the race to make a manned lunar landing. JPL officials said a composite of two narrow angle pictures showed the “bump” was a small mountain range about 12 miles northeast of Surveyor. Earlier photos, taken with a wide angle lens, showed the same area in less clarity and scientists had speculated It might be a mountain or an isolated protrusion. The range appeared to be less than three miles long, scientists said. Its crest rose about 500 feet above the horizon, but its actual height could not be determined because its base was on the far side of the horizon.
Scientists said the range probably Is part of the rim of an “ancient, unmapped crater” about 60 miles in diameter. Part of the Sea of Storms, into which Surveyor landed, apparently is inside the crater, they said. They said numerous rocks also visible several hundred feet from Surveyor might be part of a smaller crater within the “ghost crater.” The three-legged space robot also took time out Sunday to lock its cameras on Sirius, brightest star in the heavens, to provide JPL with an exact fix on its moon location. JPL spokesmen said they could use celestial navigation to plot Surveyor’s exact position and also determine if it is on a flat surface or a hillside.
Penney's Give Hints On 'Father Watching'
Next to bird watching, “Father watching” seems to be come the most popular sport this time each year. This isn’t surprising, for “Father watching 1 * heralds the approach of the day given over annually to honor Dads everywhere, this year Sunday, June 19. The goal of the spot is to get a clue to an appropriate gift for father. Does “Father watching” re quire any special skills or have any rules? “Not necessarily,” according to Cloyd Moss, manager of the Penney store here. “All it takes is a little study and observation of Dads, and pretty soon all sorts of gift-giving clues appear—almost as if by magic!’* Five Drowned Over Indiana •y United Preae International Five persons drowned tat Indiana waters during the weekend period, two of them Sunday and the others Saturday. Robert Cramer, 22, Indianapolis, drowned Sunday evening in the Silver Spring section of Mill Creek near the Lower Cataract Falls in Owen County. Authorities said Cramer apparently panicked when he stepped into a deep hols while wading and friends nearby failed in an attempt to rescue htm. Hosay Jones, 14, Marion, drowned Sunday in an abandoned gravel pit just northeast of his hometown. Police said Five companions told them Jones wanted to go for “one more dip” before they left The youths told authorities Jones got about 40 feet from shore, yelled once for help and went under. They said none of them were good enough swimmers to attempt to rescue the youth, who was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Leroy Jones of Marion. The body of Larry Hinson, 19, Columbia, Tenn., was recovered just three minutes after he disappeared below the surface while swimming with a cousin, Timothy Hampton, to a raft in a Valparaiso park Saturday night. Authorities said life guards failed in resuscitation efforts and the youth was pronounced dead at Porter Memorial Hospital. David Wright, 17, Wabash, and Robert Mast, 30, Kokomo, was drowned Saturday. Wright drowned while attempting to swim about 30 feet from a raft in a large pond north of Rich Valley in Wabash County to the shore line, while Mast drowned when his rowboat overturned in the Kokomo Water Works Reservoir.
Fathers have a way of commenting about things that don’t work right, that are worn out, that they really do like, or conversely, that they really don’t like. Their special enthusiasms are sometimes dose to the surface, too, and can be noted by the way they act and react. All these are hints about what to buy—or what not to buy. Catching the hints is what “Father watching” is all about Translating Dad’s “hints” into a pleasing gift can be easy. . . or it may require more thought. Help is available, though, from literally dozens of buyers at J. C. Penney Company. They specialize in keeping man-pleasing merchandise on the shelves of Penney Stores, like the one here, and are professionals in the giftgiving field.
Farm Front By Gaylord P. Godwin WASHINGTON UPI — The Agriculture Department said today retail food prices which usually rise slightly to a seasonal peak in July may not follow the trend this year. In a review of the agricultural outlook, the department’s Economic Research Service said the peak may not occur in July because fed cattle prices likely will ease somewhat into summer, the seasonal gain in hog prices probably will be unusually small, and spring vegetable tonnage is up sharply from last year. Furthermore, ERS is convinced retail food prices reached this year’s peak in March and ApriL The department’s review also showed: Milk production is expected to total about 2 per cent below 1865, reflecting the 6 per cent fewer milk cows at the beginning of 1966 and below-average gains in output per cow early in the year. Shown wool output likely will decrease slightly, reflecting a decline in U. S. sheep numbers. U. S. wheat disappearance for fiscal 1966 may total a record 1.6 billion bushels, dropping the carryover to about 5:50 million bushels, the smallest since 1952. Spring potato production is expected to total moderately above the large output of a year earlier. Gross income from poultry and eggs, after increasing 5183 million during 1965 from 53.431 billion in 1964, is expected to show another sizable gain this year.
A Woman's View By Gay Pauley UPI Women’s Editor
NEW YORK UPI — What women in the fashion industry wear is often the wave of what’s ahead for the rest of the nation’s females. The current trend in the showrooms of New York manufacturers of ready-to-wear fashions is to low-heeled shoes, above-knee skirts and nearwhite or white stockings. “They all look like a bunch of nurses,” observed one showroom veteran as she looked at all the pale clad legs. Many of them—the buyers in New York to purchase fall and winter apparel for their stores, the reporters covering the previews, and the socialites who occupy front row seats at the showings—also could pass for modem Pilgrims. Never have so many big, square buckles decorated the fronts of so many low-heeled pumps. The Pilgrim pump is almost a uniform. I’ve spotted it most frequently in black patent versions with black buckles. Runners-up in the shoe style division are low-heeled T-strap sandals, and low-heeled pumps —a combination of leather base with see-through plastic vamp. The stiletto heals? If you’re with it, trade ’em in.

Viet Civilians Get Invitation SAIGON UPI — Premier Nguyen Cao Ky’s military government today invited 10 civilians to become members of the ruling junta in an effort to solve the Buddhist-inspired political crisis. The announcement, however, made no mention of Buddhist demands that Ky and Chief of State Nguyen Van Thieu step down from office by midnight
tonight.
The move was seen as a compromise aimed at heading off threatened resumption of massive street protests. It came following day-long conferences between Ky and his military partners in the 10-man National Leadership Council to consider candidates for the 10 additional seats on the council which now will be expanded from 10 to 20
members.

right from winter to the summer scene, but in much lighter weight versions. The current favorites, according to my showroom survey, are the offwhite sheers and the patterned ones with a diagonal mesh in white. As the New York manufacturers moved into the third concentrated week of showing their new collections, these other trends of what’s in, what’s out were noted. The brunette model is in, overwhelmingly. Blondes are certainly outnumbered. In most instances, the models have let their hair grow to shoulder length and below, wearing it as straight as if they’d taken a tip from teen-agers and ironed out any curl. If they wear it short, the rule still is straight, with bangs almost to the eyebrows. Models at the Maurice Rentner show indicated what’s new with sunglasses. Wear them pushed back on the brow to double as bandeaus. You’ve seen them that way in photographs of Mrs. John F. Kennedy. Still “in” is the model’s traditional walk, hips forward, the rest of the body concave. Notable exceptions were again at the Rentner show, where designer Bill Blass had selected girls who looked more like Radcliffe juniors than sophisticated New Yorkers earning $40 and $50 an hour to show clothes. Their walk resembled a gangling lope and a buyer sitting next to me at Rentner’s remarked, “That one walks like a Vassar girl who just got off her horse.”

power to a civilian government completed its final report recommending that elections be held Sept. 11 for an assembly to draft a national constitution.
A key provision in the recommendations would empower the constitution drafting assembly to transform itself into a national legislative body if it so chooses. This would enable the nation to have an elected civilian government much earlier than mid1967, as now envisioned by Ky and his associates. There was no immediate re-
14 Nations OK Move By NATO BRUSSELS UPI — Foreign ministers of 14 NATO countries — all except France — have agreed to move Supreme Allied Headquarters (SHAPE) from Paris to a new site in Belgium, reliable conference sources said today. The decision was reported to have been reached by “the 14” at a two-hour meeting this morning. The ministerial meeting was called to firm up a united front for negotiations with the French on President Charles de Gaulle’s withdrawal from the NATO military setup. The sources said the new site for SHAPE would be within easy reach of Brussels and that a subcommittee had been formed to work out final details, including the exact location. The move does not affect the status of NATO’s political headquarters, also In Paris. This question has not been taken up, the conference sources said. Belgium was reported willing to accept SHAPE but parliamentary approval will be necessary before the move is finalized. Secretary of State Dean Rusk is heading the U.S. delegation
