Regents Okay Science Plan, Page NEW YORK, Nov. 21 (APr-Former Republican President Herbert Hoover said tonight the United States is lagging in science as a result of too much academic freedom in high schools.

He told the United Engineering Societies in a speech: "In my view there is a fundamental weakness from the too prevalent high school system of allowing a 13- or 14-year-old kid to choose most of his studies. Academic freedom seems now to begin at 14. A military spokesman in Amman, Jordan's capital. "id the man must be returned with' in 24 hours or Jordan will "take the necessary steps to safeguard her full rights." A spokesman for" Israel's army said nothing of the alleged abduction. He reported an Is raeli patrol was attacked by heavy rifle and machine gun fire across the armistice line near Taibe village.

He said the Israelis returned the fire and WASHINGTON'. Nov. 21 The capital heard a rapid succession of progress reports on U.S. missiles today, including word that Intermediate rant weapons are ready for the production line. Rep.

Mahon (D-Tex) said top level decisions will be furth-coming soon possibly this week to resolve Pentagon policy differences and to go into high gear operational production of the Intermediate Range Ballistic Missile (IRBM). The Defense Department announced plans to build a C3 million-dollar missile site near Cheyenne, apparently to launch American Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles tICBMs) when such devices are ready. Although the department said only that the project is "required to support the miss-le program," it was learned reliably that it is intended it the starling point for the flight of a range weapon. Dr. John Hagen, director of project Vanguard, told reporters his scientists expect to put a 6-inch test satellite into orbit next month and follow it with a fully instrumented, 20 inch sphere in March.

Light change apparently confused him. A youngsters nrst reaction in school is to seek soft classes, not the hard work of science and mathematics. Also, he has a multitude of extra-curricular activities which he considers more beguiling than hard work.

"You simply cannot expect kids of those ages to determine the sort of education they need, either for daily living or for the professions, un-leses they have some guidance." Engineering Center Hoover spoke at a meeting during which plans were announced for a new 10 million dollar united engineering center on United Nations Plaza between 47th and 48th Streets. The 20-story building is expected to be completed three years from now. The building will serve as headquarters of 16 national engineering societies and their 250,000 members. It will replace the present headquarters on West 39th Street. Hoover told the group "it required Sputnik to awaken the country to certain facts of life." He continued: "The trouble is that we are turning out annually from our Institutions of higher educa-.

The greatest enemy of all mankind the Communists are turning out twice or possibly three times as many as we do. Cites Figures "Our higher institutions of learing have the capacity to train the recruits we need.

About 400 yards inside Arab territory the patrol met a Jordanian working in a field. They forced him to march back with them. "The Israeli patrol withdrew after being engaged by a Jordanian patrol," the spokesman added. He said in addition to the ultimatum, an urgent complaint had been lodged with the mixed armistice commission.
