Meanwhile, one set of Soviet military maneuvers along the Czechoslovak border ended. But another series of war games began. Tass, the official Soviet news agency, said "communications troops" of the Soviet Union, East Germany and Poland had begun exercises near their borders with Czechoslovakia. The government television station in Prague reported the new maneuvers without comment. In London, the Guardian reported that Czechoslovakia had to agree to eight points as the price for peace in its talks with the Russians.

The article by Lord Bethell was based on information from a leading Czechoslovak journalist, who was not identified. Bethel reported only two of the concessions: severe restrictions on Czechoslovakia's trade and cultural relations with West Germany, and a campaign in the press emphasizing friendship with the Soviet Union and its allies. ITALY A Gilman Transferline Assembly Machine started the long trip to Ivrea, Italy early last week. Built to assemble typewriter parts for the Olivetti Corporation, the $245,000 machine represents the first Gilman shipment overseas. Pictured with the machine at the start of its journey via (AP WIrephoto) (the St.

A 15 per cent raise in base pay is included among the list of demands made by the Rock County Deputy Sheriff's Association and presented to the sheriff's committee of the board of supervisors. Most outstanding of the demands included in the association's list, now being studied by the committee, was the hike in base pay. The association asks for a flat 15 per cent boost in base pay and adds this would include the county's payments into the retirement benefits. The association says the raise is necessary to bring DSA pays up to par with other local law enforcement agencies. Another demand the association makes, all of which, if accepted by the committee will be included in the 1969 budget, is for the county to provide a full health program whereby the county would pay for health services for deputies and their families.

Presently the county pays only for medical services for deputies. The DSA is also asking the county to pay all funds to the state for its retirement fund. Jacob Coele, association vice president, says while Rock County now pays none of this fo the state, other departments do practice this. The DSA also is seeking time and a half after 40 hours. Accumulated overtime at present is paid on a straight time basis after 40 hours.

Tom Harrington, secretary- GOING PLACES? treasurer for the association, said the DSA also wants the county to increase the life insurance program from $1,000 to $2,500. Another major request by the association is for a sick leave pool to be established. Presently, a deputy may accumulate up to 90 days of sick leave at the rate of one day a month. After 90 days, however, no more sick days may be added and those days, if any are accumulated, are lost. The association is asking that all sick days after 90 which deputy accumulates, be put into a pool which could be drawn from if a deputy uses up his 90 days of sick leave and still requires time off for sickness.

T. M. Parinello, Beloit committee chairman, today refused to comment on the association's list of demands which have become a matter of public record since his committee has officially received the list. "I just don't think I want to comment on the letter (list) at all," Parinello said. First Baptist Plans Fund Drive October will be campaign month for members of First Baptist Church.

A church loyalty dinner Wednesday, Oct. 16, at a location to be announced later, will be one of the events of the month in which a special drive will be held to raise funds for the new church to be built on the Woodhall Drive site. The Rev. G. Horace Wood, St.

Paul, capital fundraising director on the staff of the Division of Church Extension of the American Baptist Home Mission Societies of the American Baptist Convention, will be director of the campaign here. The committee, appointed by the Rev. 0. W. Kneece.

Beloit Wins a Round in Annexation Trial The City of Beloit drew first blood this morning in the first day of the Caravilla annexation trial as Judge 'Richard W.

Orton ruled that the burden of proof of the annexation's fitness results with the towns. The ruling paved the way for attorneys of the Towns of Beloit, Rock and Turtle to begin calling witnesses in its case against the annexation north of Beloit, which takes in land in all three townships. The issue of which side has the burden of proof in the civil litigation apparently arose recently because Judge Orton commented at one point he might not have held the "rule of reason" trial on the suitability of the annexation until after the referendum had the question been raised sooner. However, the judge said he will still hear the trial which is expected to last this entire week in the third floor hearing room at the courthouse. The towns and city had filed briefs on the burden of proof question.

Judge Orton ruled late this morning that the towns must establish that the annexation is "arbitrary and capricious" under Wisconsin state statutes. Terming the ruling a "difficult decision. Judge Orton pointed out that the towns approach the trial as protestors of the annexation, therefore must show it is a bad annexation. Testimony will pivot on whether the annexation, for which Beloit has requested Judge Orton set a referendum date, meets standards of the rule of reason as set forth in the state law. Should the city win the trial, then Judge Orton must schedule an annexation in the annexation area.

Both sides wanted the other to make its case first so the adverse testimony could be attacked by their later witnesses. Judge Orton remarked at one point "this is the first law case I have seen" where the attorneys were so reluctant to "get near the witness stand." Representing the towns are Roger O'Neal for Beloit Township; David Y. Collins for Turtle; David MacDougall for Rock. Madison attorneys Trayton Lathrop and Leone Isakson aided by City Attorney Samuel Loizzo, are arguing the city case. Special counsel for the towns are Samuel Recht and Richard Cutler, both of a Milwaukee law firm.

Southern Wisconsin Obituaries 650 Attend Evangelistic Crasade Here A warning that "without renewal there will be revolution" was given by the Rev. Arnie Robertson, Greensboro, N. as he opened the Rock County Evangelistic Crusade last night. The first session of the crusade, which will con. tinue through Aug.

25, drew more than 650 persons to the Rock County Fairgrounds' 4-H building. An estimated 40 persons responded to an invitation to "dedicate yourselves to Christ." These persons were addressed as a group and ministers and laymen of the churches sponsoring the crusade counseled with them as individuals. The Rev. David Burton, pastor of the Free Methodist Church, Beloit. presided at the service and the Nolen Golden Family Singers presented musical selections anti led in community singing.

Meetings in the crusade will be held at each evening, the Rev. Mr. Robertson preaching.

tomorrow, J3 year mean for Aug. 11: 70.J A curfew prohibiting teenagers from being on city streets after a certain hour at night may be imposed in Janesville in addition to an ordinance empowering the city manager to call a general curfew under emergency conditions. City Atty. T. P.

Bidwell is conducting survey of surrounding communities to establish if they have curfews ordering teen-agers off streets at night and if so, how their ordinances are written. "When the ordinance was presented at the last council meeting allowing City Manager Karl Samek to call a curfew in case of an emergency, some councilmen expressed a desire to know if surrounding communities have curfews on teen-agers," Bidwell said. He said Janesville has no such curfew and because it doesn't, there have been some police problems concerning teen-agers from other communities where there is a curfew. "Apparently some young people living near Janesville where there is a curfew, come here at night after the curfew is in effect in their community," the city attorney asserted. In talking with some city councilmen, however, the Gazette learned that there apparently was a misunderstanding in what kind of a survey councilmen were seeking.

In requesting the city attorney to survey ordinances in surrounding communities, councilmen were interested in knowing more about police powers during emergency situations. Bidwell, however, apparently thought councilmen were asking about ordinances dealing with general curfews on teen-agers. Councibnan Edward H. Grumich last week asked the city attorney to find out if police here would be empowered to stop anyone from coming into the city if a gen- NLRB Dismisses Charge by Union The National Labor Relations Board, Region 30.

"I wasn't referring to a few for teenagers, but as long as the survey is being made, fine. But as far as I am concerned, I don't think Janesville teen-agers need curfew," he said.

Grumich said if the curfew is wanted to prevent teen, agers from other ities where there is a curfev from coming to that he might consider favoring one, but added he would have to study the issue carefully. Another councilman whs commented on the possibility of a curfew in said: "If those who want i curfew for teen -agers here want it to prevent other teenagers from coming here from other communities, I don't think the ordinance would be worth a darn. "Every night, practically, from 9 to 11 or later, teen-agers are racing around city streets here in their cara and police don't even bother them. So if a curfew were imposed, I don't think it would have any effect." a 1 Schneider, Council President, said he would oppose a curfew against Janesville teen-agers. "I feel that it is the parents' responsibility to see that their young children are at home at a reasonable hour.

This isn 't the policeman's job," he asserted. City Manager Karl Samek said he feh any commenU on imposing a general curfew in Janesville at UiLs time would be premature. "This sort of thing a thorough study by not only city officials, but police, school officials, PTAs and other organizations concerned with Janesville youth." Samek said while Bidwell is conducting the survey in communities, if the question of imposing a curfew on Janesville youth becomes a reality, he would request a more intensive survey. "I think would ask for a canvass of the entire state and not just a few cities," he as.serted. Bidwell today said his survey so far has taken him to Madison where a curfew there restricts all persons under 17 from being on the streets after 10 p.m.

"Tlie only way they can be out later than that is if they are accompanied by a parent, legal guardian, or if they are attending an officially sanctioned public or parochial school event. And even then, they must show identification, proof of having attended such an event and they must go directly home," Bidwell assert- cd. He said he is continuing his survey for presentation to City Council at the next meeting.
