"THE PAPUA THAT WJES BROWNSVILLE TRI-COUNTY EDITION VH THE VOL. 2 NO. 187 UNIONTOWN, PENNSYLVANIA, SATURDAY, A A 27, 1961' PRICE--FIVE CENTS fH SPACE FLIGHT IS POSTPONED DONORA WOMEN WITH GOLDBERG--Secretary of Labor Arthur Goldberg reaches to shake hands with Donora Women who met him in Pittsburgh yesterday, seeking help in finding work for their unemployed husbands.

Donora Women Ask Goldberg For Job Aid PITTSBURGH A Secretary of Labor Arthur Goldberg told a dinner meeting of the National Academy of Arbitrators Friday night that the nation cannot afford a repetition of the 116-day steel strike ol 1959. But he expressed confidence that the industry and the steelworkers' union "will measure up to their plain responsibility to the nation to conclude a responsible settlement" in their forthcoming contract negotiations. I Whew, what a letdown. Millions upon millions nervously waiting for that rocket blastoff to carry Astronaut John H. Glenn Jr into orbit around the earth and then comes word of a postponement.

Well, there'll be another day and another anxious wait and we will be silently praying that the courageous space pilot will come back to us without incident. Can't remember there were so many early risers on a Saturday, all waiting for news of the orbital shoot. Trouble among the Republicans. Now i Rep. James Van Zandt of Altoona declaring hes in the a for governor and Judge Robert Woodside also a candidate, plus a few others with solid followings.

whal'll the Pennsylvania Manufacturers Assn. and the rest of the kingmakers do? That's a laugh about "a sprinkling of Democrats attending a GOP rally." The Republican Party in Fayette County a been so desperate in the past two elections they a Democrats as candidates. Housewives from Donora seek help. There were 187 of the ladies who called on Secretary of Labor A Goldberg yesterday in Pittsburgh inquiring why the government does not find work for their unemployed husbands. Tough one to answer, this sign: "Foreign Aid--Why Not Donora? More i i Defense workers needed.

Unquestionably the average person in the city and the county wants to help but he doesn't know where or how lo begin. Civil Defense organization can prove to be invaluable not only in the event of a nuclear attack but also in handling any type of a disaster. It's a must for every community. Moon shot fails, but we'll (ry again. That spacecraft is on its way but will miss the moon by 20.000 or so miles.

Wicn weather stops golf, hubby finally slays home --and falls asleep on the davenport. There'd probably be less juvenile crime if more parents knew how to lose their patience. The average person is as good as his word if he doesn't talk too much. The Secretary cited three factors which he said have contributed to an inproved climate in industrial relations: (1) the lessons of the 1959 steel strike; (2) the recession which hit both labor and industry, and (31 economic challenges from abroad.

Donora Group As Goldberg arrived at the downtown Pittsburgh hotel to address the closing session of the Arbitrators meeting, he was met by 187 housewives from nearby Donora. The women urged Goldberg to help find work for their unemployed husbands. Some carried signs that read; "Foreign Aid- Why Not "We Are A Desperate and Our Husbands Are Too Old For New Jobs, Too Young for Pensions." Goldberg shook hands with the women then talked to them inside the hotel. He said the government hopes to bring new industries to towns like Donora and to keep established industries in the towns. "Too many long periods of layoffs, strikes and recession," he told them, "are not good for the country." Issues Complex In his banquet speech, the Secretary emphasized that "the issue in labor-management affairs are far too complex, far too potent, and far too influential on the rest of society to be solved on the old testing grounds of force and power." Goldberg said he saw an improved climate in industrial relations.

The lessons learned from the 1959 steel strike were partially responsible for this, he said. "An unfortunate factor," he added, "which also contributed to better relations between management and labor was the impact of the recession on' both. The stern economic realities have made both management and labor more responsible and less belligerent." Another factor, he said, is that "all of us are increasingly aware of the many challenges that come to us from abroad." (Continued on Paee 3. col. 5) Drive with care.

School Plan Is Submitted ForFayette Would Reduce Administrative Units To Six The new Fayette County school plan was submitted to the state Dept. of Public Instruction in Harrisburg yesterday. This is the plan which would reduce the number of administrative school units in the county to six. Present when the plan was presented were County Supt. of Schools Harry B.

Riffle, A County Supts. James J. Fast, Alfred DeFigio and A. J.McMullen, and Union Vocational School Director J. Vernon Crawford.

After the meeting, Mr. Riffle said the plan, which he referred to as a preliminary, revised one, will be studied by the Dept. of Public Instruction, then will be passed on to the State Council of Education for approval. The plan, drawn up by County Schools Office, ncom- mends that the county's 40 school districts be reduced to six administrative units. This was done to comply with Act 561 which calls for county school offices to draw up new county plans by 1963 and for all ol the school districts in the state to he reorganized.

The individual school districts have until 1965 to voluntarily do something about the matter reorganizing. If they haven't by then, the state reportedly will step in and compel them to act. Check On Tech School While in Harrisburg, the County Schools Office officials checked on plans for the expansion of technical school facilities in Fayette County. Plans call for the construction of a new building to replace the present Union Vocational School facilities at Baily Park in Uniontown. A site near Burgess Field has been proposed.

The county has an application on file in Harrisburg for a building. The number is 1240 but it has not come up yet. Ten districts now use the Union Vocational School: Uniontown, Menallen, New Salem Independent, Wharton Union, Franklin, North Union, South Union, Marclay Union, Ohiopyle and Stewart. Mr. Riffle said 18 county districts have voted to participate in a proposed expanded vocational education program and that the goal of the County Schools Office is to increase this number (Continued on Page 3, Col.

8) Schools Must Get Lighting Cumberland Twp. School Board was ordered yesterday by state to install emergency lighting systems in the Nemacolin and Crucible Schools. The order was issued by the state Industrial Board at a hearing. The Greene County board had asked to be relieved of complying with an order from the state Dept. of Labor and Industry.

The school board, in its petition, had argued that emergency lights are not needed in the two schools because no night-Ume classes or activities are held the It was also pointed out that due to the state-mandated reorganization of school districts, both schools may be closed. Estimated cost of the new lighting is about $4,000. Van Zandt Announces Governor Candidacy WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. (AP) Republican a from the north-central counties were called to a meeting here today with Republican State Chairman George I. Bloom to discuss the coming elections.

The contest for the GOP gubernatorial nomination virtually narrowed down to two choices with U.S. Rep. James E. Van Zandt's announcement Friday that he is an active candidate for the endorsement. (Congressman Van Zandt was in Unionlown last Saturday for the VFW Post 47 commander's banquet.

He will speak at the Fayette County Republicans' Lincoln Day dinner Feb. 9 at Shady Side Inn.) It was expected that Republicans opposed to Superior Court Judge Robert E. Woodside of Millcrsburg for the nomination would rally to Van Zandt's side. Woodside, 57, announced his candidacy a week ago, with the backing of two potent forces in Pennsylvania GOP politics--State Sen. M.

Harvey Taylor of Harrisburg and the Pennsylvania Manufacturers' Association. Bloom so far has kept silent on the nomination. It was the first of Bloom's regional meetings, however, that ap parently spurred the 63-year-olc Altoona congressman to throw his hat all the way into the ring. At the meeting Wednesday in Scranton, considerable sentiment was expressed for U.S. Rep.

(HP Wircpholo) Heads For Open Space Ranger Still May Get Moon Pictures Heavy Clouds Force Delay In Launching Glenn Removed From Capsule; Weather Brings Postponement For At Least 24 Hours CAPE CANAVERAL, Kla. A A heavy cover in the launching area today forced the United States to postpone for at, least 24 hours an attempt to rocket astronaut John H.

Glenn Jr. into round-the- world orbit. The launching was called off for the day at 0:10 a.m. EST as Glenn, "10-year-old Marine lieutenant colonel, anxiously waited out the countdown while sealed in his cramped, two-ton spacecraft atop a towering Atlas missile. A statement from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration said the attempt was postponed "due to heavy overcast in the area.

The pilot, John H. Glenn will be removed from the spacecraft." "It is not known when another launching attempt will be made. Taken From Rocket Glenn was to be taken down from the rocket and returned to his special "ready room" quarters in Hangar about four miles from the launching pad. There was no immediate comment from Glenn on the postponement. He had left Hangar at a.m.

after a final physical examination and breakfast. He entered the capsule at 5:12 a.m. for a scheduled 7:30 launching. Two minor problems delayed the launch past the scheduled time and while technicians were correcting one of them the clouds moved over the Cape and completely obscured what had been clear skies earlier. The postponement thwarted for- at least a day.

America's effort to hurl a man into orbit to match the feat accomplished last year by the Russian cosmonauts Cherman Titov and Yuri Gagarin. GOLDSTONE TRACKING STATION. Calif. (API--The camera- carrying Ranger 3 spacecraft, fired toward the moon Friday from Florida, was headed instead for open space today but may still get valuable pictures of the lunar surface. Scientists at.

this desert tracking station commanded the spacecraft by radio this morning to increase speed to adjust its course slightly. It was hoped these adjustments would put the Ranger in position to begin photographing the previously unphoto- grapcd left side of the moon late Sunday morning. Brashcar Hisjh PTA To Meet Monday Brashear Joint Senior High School PTA will meet Monday at 8 p. m. in the senior high school library.

Theme ot the session will be. "So You Are Sending Your Children to College." The program was arranged by Donahcy and Mrs. Max Williams. Devotions will be led by the Rev. Donald Smith, pastor of the First Presbyterian Church of Brownsville.

Mrs. Donald Hudak, president, urged all senior high teachers, members and interested parents to attend. The Ranger is ex peeled to miss the moon by about 25.000 miies. but project officials say useful photographs may be obtained at this distance. Scientists said it would he hours before they would know the clfcct of their radio commands on the vehicle.

astronauts, Alan B. Shepard and Virgil I. Grissom, were rocketed on two 15-minute suborbital nights in 1961. Both these launches also were delayed by weather, each for three days. Today's postponement was the i for Glenn's flight.

Originally scheduled for last Dec. 20, when officials fell there was a chance of achieving manned orbit in 1961, il was put off until Jan. 16 when pressure began mounting on the launch crews. Then technical problems with the Atlas and capsule caused three subsequent short delays. Disappointment The postponement was a bitter disappointment to the hundreds of technicians, engineers and scientists involved in the project.

Also disappointed were more than 600 newsmen here from the United States and 15 foreign nations to cover the historic firing, crowds who gathered on the beaches near the Cape, and perhaps millions move across the nation who were watching on television when the shot was called off. A recovery fleet of 24 ships and 60 planes strung out across the Atlantic Ocean from the Cape to the west coast of Africa will remain on station until the launching is tried again. Minutes after the postponement announced, technicians began dumping the volatile liquid oxygen from the Atlas' fuel tanks. Great clouds of steam rose from the base of the rocket as the fuel poured out. In Good Spirits Glenn was reported in good spirits throughout his futile wait.
