NIKITA SAYS WE MISSED
MOSCOW (#>—Premier Khrush
chev claimed yesterday no Ameri
can rockets had ever hit the moon.
The Soviet Premier did not men
tion by name Ranger IV which the
United States announced hit the
far side of the moon April 26.
But he said: “The Americans
have tried several times to hit the
moon with their rockets. They
have proclaimed for all the world
to hear that they had launched
rockets to the moon, but they
missed every time.”
"ITS NONSENSE" . . .
PASADENA, Calif. Ufi — “It’s
nonsense. We hit the moon with
Ranger 4.”
This was the reaction of a
spokesman for the Jet Propulsion
Laboratory yesterday to Soviet
Premier Khrushchev’s claim that
the United States has not hit the
moon with any rocket.
The laboratory made the rocket
Ranger 4 and was the agency which
tracked it through space last month
and claimed that it impacted on
the far side of the moon.
It was Maurice de Talley-Rand
who observed, “Don’t trust first
impulses—they are always good.”

PEOPLE FIND HELL AN
ATTRACTIVE PLACE TO GO
HELL, Mich. OB — Now that Hell
is on the map, people are finding
it an attractive place to go.
The result? A business boom in
Hell.
Hell soon will have its first
motel.
Hell’s new Chamber of Com
merce is in business.
Hell’s post office has put in a
new substation.
There’s an awful lot going on
in Hell.
Hell’s Chamber of Commerce
president, Mel Reinhart, is giving
the devil its due. He credits much
of the business boom to the Michi
gan State Highway Department.
It recently put Hell, a community
of about 300 near Detroit, on the
official state map.
A little later the post office went
up. And visitors to Hell were able
to send post cards to their friends
with authentic post marks.
The people who live in Hell do
have one complaint. There aren’t
enough road signs, they say, tell
ing the people how to get to Hell.
Satehmo Plans to Sleep It Off

CAMPAIGN
COMMENTS
BY VERNE O. MARTIN
Republican for Governor
I have just completed a week
long trip through Southeast
Alaska, actually more of a fact
finding mission than a campaign
tour. And wherever I visited,
in Ketchikan, Wrangell, Peters
burg, Sitka and Juneau, I found
a strong political awareness, as
well as a grave concern over the
economic future of their two
basic industries, timber and com
mercial fishing. They felt that
the Egan “war” against Japan
will do much to discourage in
creased timber exports to Japan,
and that the Japanese may boy
cott the upcoming international
fisheries agreements. Thus they
could legally keep their vessels
just outside the three mile limit
all along the Alaska coast and
do irreparable harm to local
fishermen.
As Governor, my immediate
concern will be to re-establish
good relations with Japan, pre
serve our existing timber and
fishing industries and expand
our exports to Japan, the only
nation needing or desiring our
products.
. Wherever I tHritcd in Snnth.
east Alaska, I found the pre
dominant feeling that this is
“the time for a change” in our
state administration. This was
further expressed by the all-out
weclome by residents of Sitka,
Petersburg, Wrangell and Ket
chikan, and I look forward to
again visit this wonderful part
of our great 49th State in the
near future.

"FLUBBER” . . .
“Flubber is a revolutionary
chemical discovery, a metastable
substance black, porous and resi
lient, generating repulsive energy
and capable of fantastic uses,”
Fred MacMurray explains.
A lot of the sight gags in “The
Absent-Minded Professor” employ
flubber. There also are pros on
hand like Keenan Wynn, Nancy
Olson, Tommy Kirk and Elliott
Held to keep the fun funny.
“This is a kind of follow up to
‘The Shaggy Dog’,” Fred says.
“The comedy is way out, but plau
sible. We had a bona fide science
professor for technical help. He
wrote the formula for flubber. It’s
complex, and after he finished it
he said, ‘What worries me is, I
believe the dam thing’s gonna
work’!”
“The Absent-Minded Professor”
will be shown at the Nomerama
Sunday, Monday and Tuesday.
