Fowler.

Johnson endorsed recommendations in a report prepared by Fowler as chairman of the Cabinet on Balance of Payments on ways to further reduce the deficit. The recommendations amounted to further doses of tho medicine Johnson prescribed Jan. 1, 1967 to curb the imbal ance between spending by Americans and the U.S. govern ment abroad over what this country receives from abroad.

Nixon, who will have to decide which measures to continue, have spoken against these limitations. And some of Johnson's own advisers have, too.

WORLD ALMANAC FACTS IHNORTHBROADWAY John Adams lived the longest of all deceased Presidents nearly 91 years. Why Indiana is called the Hoosier state is uncertain, The World Almanac says. One explanation is that In- dianians were so inquisitive they were unable to pass a house without asking: "Who's here?" Another equally unlikely story, this by the Hoosier poet, James i Riley, says fierce Indiana pioneers bit off the ears of enemies, and seeing an ear on the floor was so common that one merely asked: "Whose ear?"

area." Fowler's report gives top priority to "a stable economy and restoration of a healthy United Stales trade surplus." It also includes such other principal timbers of the 1968 program as: of the voluntary program under which U.S. banks have slashed their lending to foreigners. efforts to cut military spending abroad. efforts to lure more foreign travelers to the United States, the better to reduce the "travel deficit." While the United States has been in a deficit position consistently for money going out than coming the $3.6 billion deficit in 1967 was far heavier than usiial and almost three times the size 01 the 1965 and 1966 deficits. Johnson's "action program," an array of measures designed to cut the deficit in 1968, was announced from the Texas ranch last New Year's Day.

The balance figures have improved quarter by quarter this year, making it likely the 1968 deficit will be down to about $1 billion. "We have made a great deal of progress in 1968 toward our goal of a healthy equilibrium in our balance of payments," Johnson said. "More progress must be achieved to assure the continued strength of the United States dollar." Avondale Pupils Plan to March From Gratitude CINCINNATI (AP) Negro students at a school In Avondale, a section still scarred by riots of the past I wo planned to march on the city's law enforcement agencies and fire stations it's a march of gratitude rather than of protest. The demonstrations are planned through Christmas Eve. Ap proximately 200 students, most of them teen-agers, from Sam uel Ach Junior High School will be carrying 3,000 boxes of candy to police, firemen, court and probation officials and the FBI.

There'll be a fruit cake for each of the officers' wives, a file cabinet for most of the stations, a new flag and a door mat. The youngsters collected trading stamps and merged these with savings and contributions from businessmen for the gifts. "We've named it 'Operation Other Side of Christmas'," said Roger Tilford, a social studies teacher at Samuel Ach who helped the students organize their efforts. Tilford said 65 per cent of the school's student body comes from broken homes and many live an existence where public welfare checks are a way of life. "They want "to show they not only can can give as well." Networks 'Fly' with Apollo; Miss New York Wedding By CYNTHIA LOWRY AP Television-Radio Writer NEW YORK (AP) The television networks, with plenty of practice, turned in their usual sleek, professional jobs of covering the greatest of the space shots to date, the Apollo 8 blast off.

Television is having troubles with critics of its news 'coverage, but no one can fault the networks on the way they are able to present, explain and illustrate 'the background of a space event. It all led up Saturday to that breath-taking moment when the massive Saturn 5 rocket, in a burst of flame, moved slowly into the sky. A whole nation could watch the start of an adventure that must rank with the sailing of Columbus. Over the years of the space program, network reporters have sharpened their skills and developed It is impossible to single out one network or one reporter for special praise. They were all very good.

The television pictures from he space vehicle Sunday, made an incredible 140,000 miles from tarth, were of excellent quality. It was disappointing that the shots of looked like a bright star on the not come off clearly. All three networks, of course, dropped regular programming to show the space pictures. CBS, caught with the Baltimore- Minnesota football game in progress, was careful to note at the conclusion of the space program, that during the viewers' absence from the game, halftime had occurred and little else. Portions of the final minutes of the first half that were missed were shown on tape before the second half started, but the network's New York office received about 2,000 telephone calls of complaint.

While television had a field day covering man's first journey to the moon, it did not have much luck trying to cover an event closer to home: the marriage of Julie Nixon to David Eisenhower. Julie said she wanted a private marriage and, she had one. CBS patched together a half- hour special Sunday night. There were pictures of the bridal party entering the church, leaving the church, entering a hotel for the reception. The rest of the show was old film clips of the couple as children, and some rather 'inane interviews with young friends of the bride and with some of.her fellow students at Smith.

During halftime of its Oakland-Kansas City football game, NBC gave a brief report on the marriage. It showed Aline Saarinen exchanging a few words with the bridal party as it entered the reception. Nobody said much. A Youthful Face Can Mean Survival for Screen Stars ny VERNON SCOTT UPI Hollywood Correspondent HOLLYWOOD (Ul'IJ-It is fashionable lo demean actors as phonics, people and arrogant boors. Some of thorn arc.

But. if such a conclusion is reached solely on the basis of a star's vanity, then it is of necessity a false premise. Without an enlarged ego an actor wouldn't be a performer in the first place. His face and body are as much a part of his working equipment as a carpenter's plane, a painter's brush, an attorney's library; indeed, a reporter's typewriter. I know a major star who has appeared in top pictures for almost two decades.

You and I have aged in that time. Crows feet have emerged, hair has grayed, wrinkles and bags appeared. We ask ourselves how this leading man continues to look so youtr-1. Is it 1 diet? Docs he have special Tcises? Is it the defusion i on the camera? Is he a physical phenomenon? No. he is a resourceful man who knows he would be playing character roles instead of romantic leads or heroic parts in action dramas without the aid of modern science, medicine and surgery.

This particular actor has had his teeth capped. His hair is dyed to disguise the gray and is augmented by a partial toupee when he works. nccenlly lie had his fan; lifted. The surgeon painstaking, ly removed tho sagging skin beneath his chin, tightened tho wrinkles In hi.s cheeks and smoothed the bags from under his eyes. It is unfair call the man a phony.

Plastic maybe, He is, naturally, sensitive about the ersatz quality of his appearance. Ho also lives in i'car that someone will unmask him. But the alternative Is worse. This particular star could choose instead to appear hi.s age. If so, he would be consigned at once to that pitiful discard of has-beens.

That is his ultimate destination anyhow, but with luck he will fend it off for many years to come. Two Workhouse Escapees Sought CINCINNATI (AP) Police today were searching for two city workhouse inmates who along with four others scaled a 10-foot fence Sunday in a daylight prison break to freedom.
