Army Takes to
Water in Role of
Whales’ Pied Piper
CAPE HENRY, Va., UPC-When
the Army, historically land-lov
ing, tried to play nautical pied
piper in luring a group of recal
citrant whales back to the briny
. deep, the results were slightly
slapstick.
After nine small whales were
tossed ashore here Monday by a
brisk northeast storm, the order
went out to Lt. N. H. Jongeblood,
USA, at nearby Ft. Story, to “get
them back to sea before they die.”
Mumbling “they didn’t teach
this in military tactics,” Jonge
blood and his men attached lines
to the tails of the whales and
headed for open water in two
amphibious trucks.
There they released the whales
and returned to the beach with
the confidence of a job well done.
On the beach to greet them were
nine small whales.
Nearly a half-dozen times the
soldiers repeated the performance
and only on the last go-round did
success seem to be within their
grasp.
A check of the beach yesterday
revealed it was only a partial vic
tory. Seven of the critters were
gone but two had ignored the
pied pipers and had perished
above the tide.
Teen-Age Boy Falls To
Death From Stone Mt.
ATLANTA, UPC-A New York
teen-ager climbed nearby Stone
Mountain Monday while his va
cationing parents waited below.
Mr. and Mrs. Sidney S. Moret
had detoured while returning
from a visit here to give 15-year- I
old Michael a chance to climb the
mountain. While they sat in their
car enjoying the warm day, Mi
chael donned tennis shoes and
made his way to the crest of the
huge rock.
Atop the 800-foot granite mon
olith the youth slipped on wet
moss, struggled despertaely to re
gain a sure footing, then plunged
to his death.
The crumpled body was recov
ered just north of an unfinished
monument of Confederate heroes
chiseled on the mountainside. The
boy’s efforts to stop his slide com
pletely wore through the soles of
his tennis shoe, officers said.

Britain Reveals Soviet Predictions
On Suez Invasion That Came True
LONDON, (#1 — Britain dis
closed Monday night Russia
warned her before the Suez in
vasion that such an attack would
prompt the Arabs to sabotage the
canal, cripple Middle East oil
lines and unite in holy war. The
first two predictions were correct.
Publication of an exchange be
tween Soviet Premier Bulganin
and then Prime Minister Eden
also revealed the British appeal
to the Soviet Union to help in
internationalizing the disputed
waterway.
Prime Minister MacMillan’s
office made the hitherto secret
letters public barely five hours
after the Russians announced
they would come out with the
exchanges between Bulganin and
Eden and French Premier Guy
Mollet.
Britain apparently hoped to
take some of the propaganda
punch out of what was viewed as
a Soviet move to picture Russia
as guardian of the Arab world,
counter Middle East acceptance
of the Eisenhower doctrine and
drive a new wedge between the
United States and her two chief
allies.
Officials in the French foreign
ministry said Mollet’s replies to
Bulganin would remain locked in
the files as far as the French gov
ernment is concerned.
“The Russians are simply try
ing to show that only the Rus
sians are helping the Arabs,” said
one foreign ministry official.
“The Kremlin is just trying to
remind Nasser that he didn’t win
his political victory without Rus
sian help.”
Another French official said
Russia is obviously concerned
about the attraction to the Arabs
of American policy, especially
the prospects of American econ
omic aid under the Eisenhower
doctrine. He said the Kremlin
plan to publish the notes was
part of Russia’s attempt to block
the American doctrine.
