Queen gets short glimpse of Expo

MONTREAL. UPI — Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip get a brief glimpst of Expo 67 today under guard of an exten«ive security contingent mindful of the separatist disorders which marred the monarch’s 1964 visit to Quebec. Police received reports that the militant, sometimes violent, separatists planned “a patriotic act” during the queen's visit today. Actually, the royal couple planned only to visit the Expo site on islands in the St. Lawrence River, avoiding the possibly hostile city of Montreal. The 41-year-old petite British sovereign and her consort planned to enter the fair grounds at about 9:30 a.m., EDT. Royal Canadian Mounted Police RCMP, anxious about the royal couple’s safety, were

sealing off entirely one of the, two islands, He Notre-Dame. The public was not allowed j

near the queen.

As the queen moves through the British exhibit—an unfinished tower to prove that England is not yet “finished” in world affairs—part of the island was tj be reopened to fair goers behind her entourage. The queen’s motor route from the St. Lambert Marina where her yacht is berthed at He Notre Dame took her along the Russian pavilion but no stop was planned. Neither was she stopping at the American pavilion situated on the second island, He Sainte Helene. The royal couple was visiting six Canadian pavilions— the Quebec, Ontario, Indians of j Canada, Atlantic provinces,

CHICAGO UPI — Take another look at the American flag that bedecks the front of your house this Fourth of July. What color is it? If you say red, white and blue you’re only approximately right. If you were more precise, you might have said bright red, navy blue and brilliantly clean white. Some might have said, however, that their flag is pink, powder blue and gray-white. : Many would say something in

' between.

All would have been legally

! correct.

Flags can — and do — vary widely in their representation of the red. white and blue which Americans salute Tuesday. Old Glory’s history of imprecision in matters of color, design, size and shape began on June 14, 1777. The Continental Congress that day passed this

resolution:

Colorful Dilema “Resolved that the flag of the United States be 13 stripes,

alternate red and white; that the Union be 13 stars, white on a blue field representing a new

consellation.”

They forgot to mention that stripes can run horizontaly or I vertically, that a blue field can be in the center of a flag and that there are many different shades of red, white and blue. Variety resulted. The flag fluctuated In color and design through the years and through rounds of congressional legislation. It wasn’t until Oct. 29, 1912, that an attempt at exactness was made. President William H. Taft on that day handed down an executive order strictly prescribing the properties and design of the banner. He ordered the Navy Department to m a k e a blueprint showing all people how the flag should look. But he forgot about the colors. Variety In color still exists, both legally and in reality, flag manufactors say. Guidelines for Stripes

William Dwiggins, vie# president of Annin A Co., New York, the nation’s largest flag manufactor, said: “Many flags will fade over the years. Also, no two fabrics dyed with the same color give the same appearance. For example, the government's specification for blue Is called Old Glory Blue. With six different fabrics you strive for Old Glory Blue." The official specifications Dwiggins refers to are produced by the government’s General Services Administration, but they apply only to government flags. The specifications for flag colors use a system of code numbers called "cable numbers.” Each shade of red, white and blue has a certain “cable number.* So precision would dictate that you salute Tuesday a flag colored Flag Red-Cable No. 70180. Pure White-Cable No. 70001 and Old Glory Blue-Cable

No. 70076." According to the law, however, your patriotism is no less If there’s a little variety involved.

Opening lead —- king of diamonds. Strange things happen In tournaments. For example, look at this deal played in the national mixed pair championship in 1961. When I held the West hand, the bidding (fortunately for me) went as shown. North bid six notrump after he learned through Blackwood that his side was lacking one ace. He naturally hoped that South's notrump bid included the ace or king of diamonds. When this hope failed to materialize, South went down 1,400. The hand was played at 150

HANDS tables and at quit* a few of them the same contract waa reached with tha same disastrous result. Other atrangs results also occurred at other tables. Thus, quite a number of declarers played the hand at three notrump and made thirteen tricks when West led his fourth best diamond! At one table, where North used Blackwood and learned from the five diamond response that South had only one ace, he now bid five hearts, a conventional step Md showing that tha ace situation was bad and cautioning South to desist from a slam. It was the first time the suit had been named and, strictly speaking, it was an artificial bid having nothing to do with hearts. But South could think of no better landing place and he passed. As a result, this pair stumbled into the best possible contract, their only losers being two diamonds. At another table, where West passed one no trump, North raised his partner to six. When West doubled, North decided that the double was almost surely based on the A-K of diamonds. Accordingly, he ran to seven clubs, hoping to make the grand slam if East failed to lead a diamond. East, faced with a difficult guess, led a heart, but North still went down one. However, he did better than tha declarers who went down 1,400.

Western delegates move to block Soviet intervention

UNITED NATIONS UPI — Western delegates today moved to defeat a Yugoslav resolution In the U. N. General Assembly that could open the door to Soviet intervention in the Middle East conflict. The Yugoslav proposal, one of five being considered after two weeks of assembly debate on the Ar&b-Israel war, would ask all 122 nations to "render every assistance” to Secretary Thant in carrying out provisions for peace-making. Western delegates said it was just such a proviso in 1950 that allowed Western nations to join in the battle against the North Korean Comunist invaders of South Korea. The Yugoslav proposal clause could give the Russians a similar chance in the Arab-Israel war, they said The resolutions being considered by the assembly required a two-thirds approval by voting nations to pass. Well into the weekend, the Yugoslavs, various "non-aligned” nations and the Soviet Union appeared sure they had the votea. But suddenly they apparently realized they did not. They asked for a postponement to gain hours to round up more votes.

Assembly President Abdul Radman Pazhwak of Afghanistan, an announcement said," okayed the postponement. Western delegates protested, saying the whole assembly had to approve such a postponment. The Westerners won. But as the delegates assembled for today's session, iti appeared In doubt which if any resolution had a chance of passage.

Indiana newsman died Saturday NEW YORK UPI —Serv-ices were scheduled Thursday at the Universal Funeral Chapel for Dick Lee, 80. an Indiana-born newspaperman who covered 61 years of American politics and government. He died Saturday of a heart ailment.

Deputy Don Gebert picked up Roy Lee Bolden, 20, and Keith Carpenter, 18, as they walked along U. S. 30 near Fort Wayns Saturday night.

S. 421. east of Frankfort, but the other two forced Thomas to drive them on to Fort Wayne. Thomas pulled into a downtown Fort Wayne service station and ran from the car. As he looked back, he saw the two fugitives run in the opposite direction. Thomas had described his abductors as “very nice.” He said they took his billfold and removed a dollar to buy cigarettes on the way to Fort Wayne .But, said Thomas, they returned the billfold and 29 other dollars In it

China brands Soviet talks HONG KONG UPI—Communist China today branded the talks between President Johnson and Soviet Premier Alexei N. Kosygin last month as the “most dirty betrayal" yet of the Communist cause by the present Soviet leadership. Hie Peking People’s Dally said “the so-called spirit of Hollybush, to put it bluntly, Is the spirit with which the Soviet revisionist clique pledges Its faith in U. S. imperialism. It is a spirit of surrender to U. S. imperialism.” The article In the Chinese Communist party newspaper was signed “Observer,” which Western Sources regard as the signature used by high Communist party officials. It said the summit talks, between the two world leaders at Glassboro, N. J, on June 23 and 25 were simply another step in the “Soviet-American scheme to rule the world.” “This was the moat naked collusion yet with U. S. imperialism since the traitorous clique headed by Soviet Communist party Chairman Leonid L Brezhney and Kosygin came to power,” the article said. “This was yet its most dirty betrayal of the revolutionary people of the world,” it added.
