Mrs. Shriner Addre'ss
Mentally Retarded Recreation
Eunice Kennedy Shriver dis
cussed the "new frontier" in an
informal speech at the Nittany
Lion Inn Thursday afternoon.
But the new frontier she referred
to is not the one associated with
the administration of her broth
er, the late President John F.
Kennedy.
Mrs: Shriver, wife of ex
director of the Peace Corps R.
Sargent Shriver, used the phrase
to describe the use of recreation
for the mentally retarded.

Viet Operation 'Fizzles Out'
from the associated press
Fresh units of Vietnamese rangers re
inforced government fighters yesterday in
a battle against the Viet Cong 40 miles
southwest of the big coastal air base of
Da Nang. The new engagement in the north
began as another massive Vietnamese op
eration against the Communists fizzled out
in the jungle east of Saigon. On the diplo
matic front, Red China' made a new attack
against the United States, in effect calling
U.S. Secretary of State Dean Rusk a liar
who uses "gangsters' logic." The official
New China News Agency charged Rusk
with "open war threats" against North
Viet Nam. Rusk said in a New York speech
Thursday night that U.S. forces are in
Southeast Asia "to help independent peo
ples resist aggressions. Our troops could
come home tomorrow if the aggressors
would go back North and stay at home,"
Rusk added.
Health Care Vote Soon
A comprehensive health care plan for
the aged, with optional doctor bill cover
age as well as hospitalization, may be sent
to the House in about a week. This was
indicated yesterday by actions of the House
Ways and Means Committee. The com
mittee was reported informally to have
reached a consensus. It suspended until
next Wednesday its daily closed meetings,
directing its staff to draft the language
of a bill. No final votes have been taken,
it was understood, and the plans is still
subject to change at all points. Informants
representing a wide range of views in the
committee agreed that a majority appears
to favor what some called a "three-layer
cake." The bottom layer is essentially
President Johnson's administration plan
for hospitalization, convalescent home and
limited home nursing benefits, all to be
financed by an added payroll tax and ad
ministered by Social Security. Everyone
over 65 would be covered.

"There is proof that with train

up with the normal child in
physical activities," she told par
ticipants in the four-day Recrea

was held at the Inn March 2-5.
The workshop was sponsored

Britain Faces internal crisis
Prime Minister Harold Wilson is fac
ing the worst internal crisis of his four
months in office. The Labor party's left
wing apparently was in open rebellion
against his support for U.S. action in Viet
Nam. Only Thursday night left-wing mem
bers of Parliament called on him to de
clare "publicly and unequivocally" that
he is unable to support the United States
in its air strikes against Communist North
Viet Nam. Then yesterday a junior minis
ter in his government quit over the same
issue. Frank Allaun, parliamentary private
secretary to Colonial Secretary Anthony
Greenwood, resigned his post, saying he
must have more freedom of political ac
tion. A prominent left winger, he was one
of 45 members of Parliament signing
ing Thursday night's motion. Earlier this
week, he had openly backed a ban-the
bomb march against a U.S. Air Force base
in Britain at Easter.
Marches Continue In Alabama
More than 150 Negroes made two right
to-vote marches on the courthouse in Cam
den yesterday. Both times they were halt
ed by armed police on the outskirts of
the Alabama town. The second wave of
marchers knelt and prayed and sat along
side the road for approximately an hour
and a half after they were stopped by
Mayor F. R. Albritton and eight helmeted
policemen. Three officers were armed with
shotguns and all carried nightsticks. When
they left in late afternoon, many of the
teen-agers in the Negro group waved and
shouted, "Goodby, goodbye" to the officers.
The police did not answer. Albritton, a ser
vice station operator in this west-central
Alabama town of about 2,500,, told Negro
leaders of both the morning and afternoon
marches that they had no parade permit
and he would not let them march.
