| Sea Monster Turns
i Up In Eastern Siberia
LONDON UP) — A comrade of
the Loch Ness monster has turned
up in east Siberia.
The appearance of a fearsome
looking creature that rivals Scot
land’s legendary monster was re
ported by Moscow radio Wednes
day night.
Moscow said a party of geolo
gists spotted it in a lake on a
3,500-foot-high plateau while pros
pecting in eastern Siberia.
About 1,000 feet from the shore
they saw, glittering in the lake,
what looked like aa iron drum.
Suddenly foam started hissing
around it. The geologists clamber
ed to a nearby cliff top where
they could watch it better.
The beast swam nearer. The
watchers saw a head 6 feet long,
its eyes wide apart, its body seem
ingly about 30 feet long.
People in the nearest commu
nity, some 80 miles away, believe
a monster inhabits the lake, Mos
cow radio said.
No matter how much lower the
mercury falls than 40 below zero,
you don’t feel any colder. That

Commit Double-Suicide
TARZANA, Calif, Iff) — Former
radio commentator Fleetwood
Lawton and his wife — so deep
ly in debt they couldn’t even pay
their telephone bill — shot them
selves to death in a carefully
calculated suicide plot, police re
port.
“We do not go sadly,’’ said a
note found in the house, “but
rather with the relief with which
one goes to sleep when utterly
exhausted. Our love for each
other and for our son remains
undimmed.”
The bodies were found Wed
nesday after a family friend, Dr.
Edward S. Lamong, received a
letter from Lawton. It said:
“Penny (Mrs. Lawton) and I will
have died by the time you re
ceive this."
On the front door of the Law
ton home in this fashionable Los
Angeles suburb was pinned a
note. It said: “This is a double
suicide. Do not enter. Call police.”
Authorities said the couple ap
parently had been dead since
Tucsdaymght.
One of the Russian czars once
decreed no one in his domain
could wear a beret.

Bob Kennedys
Welcomed by
Balinese Dancers
DENPASAR, Bali UP — About
100 bare-shouldered girls with
golden leaves in their hair staged
a welcoming dance for the Robert
Kennedys on their arrival in
Bali Thursday.
The girls giggled and smiled as
they danced. They looped leis of
orchids around the necks of the
U.S. Atty. General and his wife,
Ethel.
It was the traditional Balinese
welcome.
The Kennedys flew in from
Jogjakarta at the halfway mark
of a six-day Indonesian tour.
Many girls who waved at them
as they motored from the airport
to this island capital were bare
breasted in Balinese tradition.
Earlier at Jogjakarta, Kennedy
drew a mixture of cheers and
jeers after challenging student
hecklers “if you disagree with any
aspect of American policy step
forward—come up here and tell
me.”
Only one student of Jogjakarta’s
Gad j ah Mada University came
hestitatingly forward with a long
question referring to the Ameri
can “capitalistic and monopolistic
society.”
Jabbing his finger toward the
youth, the U.S. Atty. General
launched into a long statement
on U.S. life and politics. Showing
flashes of anger, Kennedy told
the students at one point to grow
up when they attempted to pin
him down on the U.S. attitude
toward Indonesia’s claims to
Dutch-held West New Guinea.
Mechanic Entitled to Comp
ATLANTA, Ga. UP — An air
plane mechanic who said he lost
his hearing because of daily ex
posure to the roar of jet engines
is entitled to workmen’s com
pensation, the Georgia Court of
Appeals ruled yesterday.
The State Board of Workmen’s
Compensation and a lower court
had rejected the claim of E. L.
Shipman, a flight line mechanic
for six years at Lockheed Airr
craft Corp. in nearby Marietta.
