Supervisors order backup units to the scene. Two sergeants speed past the truck, one driving in support, like a fighter pilot flying wing. At the same time, a third patrol car moves up an alley behind a row of houses, flanking the truck on the other side.

Four carry shotguns. A fifth, armed with what appears to bean M14 rifle, trots in front.

Occasionally, in the quiet hours of the night watch, officers have practiced counter-ambush tactics on the dark streets.

On one occasion three officers two in front and a sergeant in hack drove down a quiet roadway. The pace was slow, perhaps 15 miles an hour. The car had prowled half-way along the road when small flashbulbs fired by "ambush-ers" winked from the darkness. "There it is!"

Waldman 1971 Ncwidav WASHINGTON. D.C. The Army admitted Friday that at least one shell, containing nerve gas so lethal that one drop is deadly to a human being, began to leak when it was stored on a small frozen lake in Alaska. At least one soldier was exposed to the gas. but he swiftly used a hypodermic needle to inject himself with an antidote so that he is said to have suffered no ill effects.

The. Army also admitted to Senator Mike Gravel Alaska) Friday that one of the shells was placed on the lake with other, presumably sealed, munitions even though it was seen to be leaking at the time.

He is national chairman of the National Citizens Committee for Broadcasting, which conducted Alaska, the Army then conducted an investigation.

In June, 1970, Gravel was assured by the Army that "no lethal chemical agent was released into the atmosphere and no personnel were exposed to the agents." Friday, the Army told Gravel that its statement "should be qualified." Col. Philo A. Ilutch-eson of the Pentagon's Congressional Liaison Office reported that in 19fi6 one of the shells sprang a leak when the munitions were first being stacked on the lake. "It was placed on the surface of the frozen lake with the other munitions," llutcheson wrote.

Pentagon sources said that soldiers undertaking such risky work are equipped with ampules of atropine to use as an antidote if they are exposed to the gas. llutcheson informed Gravel that medical tests on the sergeant showed that he was wise to have ac'ed so promptly. with that shown in foreign countries.
