Von Doren
Probe Set
For Nov. 2
NEW YORK (P) —Charles,
Van Doren came out of seclu-i
sion yesterday and made a,
Nov. 2 date with a congres:,
iional committee probing fixed
television quiz shows. He
would say nothing of his own
big money quiz winnings in
advance of his Washington
testimony.
Van Doren, who disappeared
nearly a week ago, accepted a
subpoena to appear before the
!louse committee. In hearings last
week—now recessed until next
month the committee elicited
testimony that some ouiz show
participantz were provided in ad
vance with questions and an
swers.
Among the tainted shows ]
( named was NBC's now defunct;
"Twenty-One," on which Van,
Doren won $129,000 in 14 weeks;
as a participant in 1956-57
I The committee wants to know
if the 33-year-old Columbia Uni
versitv English instructor took
part in the admitted shenanigans,
At one time. Van Doren publicly
'disclaimed any knowledge of such
trickery Yesterday he wouldn't
talk about the subject.
When the committee resumes
'hearings next month. it also plans
to look into the first of the bie:-
'money quiz shows, CBS's "$64,000
Question."
Counsel Robert W. Lishman said
in Washington the subcommittee
j has received information indicat
; inf-f that program also was fixed.
! The announcement brought
;statements from former partici
pants on the "64,000 Question"
land its companion show, "$64,000'

programs were honest and fair.

of Bethlehem Steel, told the in
auiry panel that more manage
ment leeway in achieving labor
cost economies is a precondition
to any settlement of economic is
sues such as wage rates
Morse agreed with Taylor,
however, that the industry is
not adamant on how these labor
cost economies are to be
achieved.
Similarly, on prodding from
Taylor, union President David J.
McDonald agreed the Steelwork
ers' economic demands are also
sucentible to bargaining.
This appeared to some observ
ers to be a sort of toe-in-the-door
expression from each side that the
two main issues—work practice
changes and economic conces
sions—may be subject to settle
,ment.
The companies have said they
are willing to settle on a 2 per
cent increase basis that would
give workers 15 cents an hour in
wage and benefit gains over the
next two years.
Nike-Zeus Missile
Test Successful
WHITE SANDS MISSILE RANGE, N.M. (fP)—A Nike-
Zeus missile—designed to kill ICBMs—made its maiden test
flight yesterday across the southern New Mexico desert.
Army spokesmen termed the test a success, although the
missile fell short of its goal because of an apparent failure
during the coasting phase of the
missile's flight.
Both stages of the powerful mis
sile fired, and information of '
flight and propulsion characteris
tics were telemetered to the
ground.
Nike-Zeus is the Army's top
secret answer—it hopes—to inter
continental ballistic missiles. It
carries a hydrogen warhead on
,top of what the Army bills as
"the most powerful known single
unit propellant rocket motor ever
fired.' It packs 400,000 pounds of
thrust.
It is designed to head off
ICBMs while they are still in - the
stratosphere en route from en
emy bases, and to destroy them
with a fusion explosion.
Both stages of the Nike-Zeus
went off on schedule. The first
attempt at a Nike-Zeus test at
White Sands (Aug. 26) ended
when the missile fell apart in
the air.
Only a brief run 70 miles down
range was scheduled. It was after
both the booster first stage and
the sustaining second stage cut
off and the missile was gliding
on its way that something hap
pened which made the missile
fall short of the expected impact
area.
Only flight and propulsion
characteristics of Nike-Zeus are
being tested at White Sands.
Range, performance character
istics and pictures of the missile
have not been released. A manu
facturer's catalogue available to
the public gives the Nike-Zeus
range as 200 miles.
Almond Orders
School Decision
ASHEVILLE, N.C. (P) The
South must make the choice of
closing public schools or accept
ing some integration, Gov. J.
Lindsay Almond, Jr., said here
yesterday as he became chairman
of the Southern Governors' Con
ference.
The Virginia. governor, whose
massive resistance program to
segregation crumpled in the face
of federal court decisions, pre
dicted at a news conference that
public education will grow and
expand but that private schools
will evolve, since many people
will not send their children to
integrated schools.
But Almond said in the South,
"a choice must be made to close
the public schools or accommo
date to the situation within the
framework of the law."

Truck Explosion
Kills Two Men
LOS ALAMOS, N.M. (/Pi
Something slipped in a truckload
of waste high explosive near the
Los Alamos scientific laboratory
yesterday, causing an explosion
that killed four men.
Spokesmen for the atomic lab
oratory city said no radioactive
materials were involved.
Not even parts of two of the
bodies could be found. The two
men were listed as missing and
presumed dead.
The blast took place at a dis
posal dump at the top secret site
two miles south of Los Alamos.
