Arizona Scientist Says
ICBM Launching Sites
Targets of Nuclear Attack
WASHINGTON UP> — An Ari
j zona scientist says that placing
j ICBM launching sites “upwind”
of at least nine major cities means
“nearly certain death for an ad
ditional three or four million
Americans” if the United Stales
' is attacked.
1 The scientist, Dr. J. E. McDon
ald of the University of Arizon’s
Institute of Atmospheric Physics,
said the launching sites are cer
tain to be “targets of the heaviest
nuclear attack in the opening
minutes of any sneak attack.
In a paper prepared for a joint
meeting of the American Meteor
ological Society and the American
Geophysical Union, McDonald
said the situation presents “hor
rendous civil defense hazards.”
McDonald said cities which
would unnecessarily be faced with
potentially lethal fallout from
enemy nuclear bombs in case of
attack because of their location
in respect to intercontinental bal
listic missile launching sites now
under construction include:
Los Angeles Kansas City and
l Spokane. Wash.

Liz Taylor,
Hurt Lancaster
SANTA MONICA, Calif. W —
“I feel weak but wonderful,” Liz
Taylor sighed happily after win
ning her first Oscar Monday night
—a few months after recovering
from a brush with death.
The beautiful star, who won
the best actress award for her
role as the girl-about-town in
“Butterfield 8,” nearly fainted
twice during the 80-minute Aca
demy Awards Show.
But she told newsmen: “I’m
going to the party, too. I wouldn’t
miss it.”
Liz, nominated four straight
1 years for the movie ?’ big award,
stole the 33rd annual Oscar show
from the other winners — Burt
Lancaster, best actor; Shirley
Jones, best supporting actress,
and Peter Ustinov, best support
ing actor.
“The Apartment” won five
awards, including best picture
and best direction by Billy Wilder.
All the winners posed back
j stage for photographers but Liz
got weak in the knees and had
to cut her posing short. Accom
panied by her husband Eddie
Fisher and her doctor, she sway
ed shakily toward an open door.
When her name was called for
the Oscar, she put her hands over
her face in surprise, kissed her
husband and then walked slow
ly, with his help, to the podium.
“I don’t really know how to
express my great gratitude,” she
said with emotion. “I guess I will
just have to thank you with all
my heart.”
Lancaster, the hell-firing re
vivalist of “Elmer Gantry,” told
a cheering audience: “I want to
thank all the members of the Aca
demy who voted for me. And I am
so happy that I also want to thank
all the members who didn’t vote
for me.”
For Lancaster, 47, the award
climaxed a career that had taken
him from the New York slums
through circus acrobatics to movie
stardom.
Miss Jones clutched her Oscar
and thanked another Oscar — the
late Oscar Hammerstein.
It was Hammerstein and Rich
ard Rodgers who picked the 27
year-old brewer’s daughter from
Smithton, Pa., to play the in
genue lead in “Oklahoma” and
“Carousel.”
But it was her switch to the
hardboiled tart of “Elmer Gan
try” that won her the Oscar.
“I guess it pays to be bad on
the screen,” she said.
The bearded Ustinov won an
Oscar for his portrayal of a gladi
ator school operator in “Sparta
cus.”
