Mack denied under a barrage of questions today that he has been influenced by any body in his 2% years on the Fed eral Communications .Commission. Mack emerged smiling but ob viously tired from a day-long ses sion before the House Legislative Oversight subcommittee standing firm on a determination not to re sign under fire. “Of course not” was his reply] to questions about the possibility i of his quitting. The question fol lowed in the wake of testimony linking him financially with a Mi ami lawyer who for a time backed the successful bid of a National Airlines subsidiary for a Miami JTV-license. • Mack did say on "the witness stand, however, that for all prac tical purposes he had put his fi-. nances completely in the hands of the attorney and his lifelong friend, Thurman A. Whiteside. The commissioner said he had only the haziest knowledge of how more than $lO,OOO in loans and advances made to him by "Whiteside in recent years were repaid. ’ And he, testified he knew little or nothing about a Miami insur ance agency in which Whiteside gave* him a one-sixth interest, or about a holding" company which the Miami lawyer likewise turned over to him—with no outlay of money on Mack’s part in either case. Army Tests Redstone Missile; Vanguard Launching Postponed CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla., Feb. 27 (#}-An Army Red stone missile streaked upward for more than two minutes today, vanishing after a-puff of white smoke as a silver pin-prick in the blue Florida sky. . The 200-mile-range missile, aimed at a preselected impact area down the Atlantic Ocean Tange, was launched at 3 p.m., after standing all night in the rain and wind. The same wind and rain had forced postponement of the firing of the more - delicate Vanguard satellite launcher until next week. It was not announced whether the Bedstone had hit its target area. The Redstone is in produc tion and in the hands of U.S. ■ Army troops. A modified Bed stone forms the first stage of the satellite-launching Jupiter - C vehicle. For about half an hour after its gantry or working crane was FOR POSITIONS IN PUBLIC WORKS Construction FIIPIIIFFRIIIP Boads - Bridges • Sewers - Storm rnlf Bn6*rl#BB«ll Drains - Hydraulic Structures - LIWIIIkLRIWV Buildings - Water'Works See the Representative of the COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES Commission Engineer Recruitment Service On this Campus March 14 Our brochure is on file in your Placement Office THE DAItY COU.EGIAN STATE COUEGE PENNSYI VANIA Red Central Committee OK's Farm Revolution MOSCOW, Feb. 27 (#)— I Thej Communist party’s powerful Cen-j tral Committee gave its chief,!
