Snack Missile
Ruled Obsolete
Is Discontinued
CAPE CANAVERAL Fla. (.4 3 )
A missile era ended here yester
day when the Air Force fired the
Snark in its research and
training program. The launching
followed the successful 1600-mile
flight of a longer-range Polaris.
An Air .Force crew sent the
Snark winging over the Atlantic
on a 5000-mile training flight,
ending a program which began
here eight years ago. More than
80 of these 69-foot sweptwing
guided missiles , have screamed
skyward since then.
The Snark was this nation's
first missile capable of inter
continental range.
• But it became a victim of ad
vanced technology and eventual
ly was overshadowed by the
witted, more powerful Atlas in
tercontinental range ballistic mis
sile.
Kennedy Proposes
Military Unification
WASHINGTON (IP)—A tightly controlled defense force,
dispensing with Army, Navy and Air Force secretaries and
emphasizing speedy military decisions, was proposed to
President-elect John F. Kennedy by his defense advisers
yesterday.
Annual savings up to $8 billion were claimed for the
proposed reorganization
The three armed services would
continue to be separate units un
der the plan produced, at Ken
nedy's request, by a committee
headed by Sen. Stuart Symington,
(D-Mo.).
But the committee frankly
recommended reducing the - in
fluence of the separate services.
It said the country can no long
er "afford the luxury of letting
each service strive to develop
in itself the capability of fight
ing any future war, by itself."
Defense planning cannot con
tinue to consist of compromises
among the three, the committee
contended.
Moreover, Symington. a former
secretavy Of the Air Force, said
the• plan recognizes "the nuclear
space age instead of a continuing
to have this arbitrary and ridicu
lous division between land, sea
and air."

questions that might have had an
issues involving Negro rights, the
court based its 7-2 decision on the
Interstate Commerce Act.
The ruling struck down the con
viction of Bruce Boynton. a Negro
!traveling from Washington, D.C.,
,to Salem, Ala., who refused to
,leave the restaurant for whites in
',the Trailways bus terminal in
!Richmond, Va.
i Boynton was fined $lO under
a Virginia law which makes it
a misdemeanor to refuse to
leave premises on demand of
persons in charge.
Justice Wig° L. Black, author
of the decision, went no further
!than necessary to decide the case.
iHe noted that constitutional ques
tions had been raised in Boyn
i ton's appeal, including the due
process and equal protection
,clauses of the 14th Amendment.
"We• think there are persuasive
;reasons, however, why this case
!should he decided, if it can, on
'the Interstate Commerce Act con
tention raised in the Virginia
courts," Black wrote.
"Under these circumstances, we
think it appropriate not to reach'
the constitutional questions hut to
proceed at once to the statutory
Issue. ,

On Algeria
UNITED NATIONS, N. Y.
(/P)—Tunisia opened debate
yesterday on Algeria with a
demand that the United Na
tions guarantee by its presence
the honesty of any referendum
on the political future of that
explosive North African terri
' tory. -
France boycotted again the de
bate in the 99-nation Political
Committee in order to demon
strate its position that Algeria is
an internal matter of no concern
to the United Nations.
Two African nations sympathet
ic with France—Chad and Congo
Brazzaville—called off at least
temporarily a plan to seek post
ponement of the debate.
Supporters of the Algerian
independent movement a
mong UN delegates expressed
confidence they could defeat
the move.
Tunisian Ambassador Mon g i
Slim, whose country has shel
tered the provisional government
of the Algerian rebels, accused
French President Charles de
Gaulle of raising new fears over
Algeria.
Referring to a speech by De
Gaulle in Paris on Nov. 4, Slim
charged the French president
with putting emphasis on the pos
sibility of partitioning Algeria.
He acknowledged that De
Gaulle still maintained th e
piinciple of self-determination
for the Algerian people, but he
added the French leader's state
ment was "full of dangers."
Slim said partition would only
prolong the rebellion, now in its
seventh year; jeopardize the posi
tion of Tunisia; plunge Algeria
into chaos, and threaten inter
national peace.

After shooting group pix of sorority formals this past Sat.
night (which included Phi Sigma Sigma, Delta Gamma, AEPhi,
Delta Zeta and Chi Omega) we were forced.to arrive at some
cataclysmic conclusion. Thus, we publicly state that the best
cookies were seen at Alpha Sigma Phi where the DG's held
their party. Delicious, probably hand made , a huge plate
ful on a . table next to the entrance.
Upon asking a sorority president why she prefered her
party to be photographed in black and white rather than
color, she replied that it was purely a matter of price. Poor
girl was floored when we informed her that color could be
had for as little as 25 cents more per picture than b. and. W.
Bunny has a pair of Kneisl Skis and a pair of size 6:13 Ski
Boots, both in good condition, which, for a few farthings,
she'd relinquish the ownership.
Kudos to the gentleman who painted a crescent (since
painted over) on door of Santa Claus house at campus main
entrance. The door is too big for proportion of the house.
Should have been small - - - for entrance of children.
We are attaching an extra dollar to our monthly telephone
check in hopes that others will follow suit . . . thus that the
telephone company can afford to hire enough help to enable
its users to reach the operator or information without the
usual interminable delay which plagues us even when the
campus is empty.
If you're skiing in Vermont this Xmas, we'll be at Mt. Snow.
Look for a black T-Bird loaded with diapers for Nina .and a
couple of crutches strapped to the roof. A rum toddy on us.
LAST CALL . . .. Pre-Xmas delivery cannot be promised
if you don't make your appointment on the next 4 or 5 days.
