Aug. 26 (VP) If there are any "atomic war" defense caverns under construction in the New Mexico desert, the Armed Forces made it clear today that they intend to keep all details a super-secret. The War and Navy departments, pressed for information on published reports of huge caves being dug in a remote mesa between Albuquerque and the Sandia base in New Mexico, would admit only what was admitted a month ago: "The principal field installation of the AFSWP is Sandia Base." AFSWP stands for "armed forces special weapons project." A joint Army-Navy project charged with the development of atomic weapons, it is commanded by Leslie R.

Some of the Legionnaires, equip NEW YORK, Aug. 26 (P) There are two kinds of hotel managers in New York this week the cynical and the trust-in? and they won't know until after next Sunday whether the honor system or the "take-no-chances" method was the right one. The management of the Hotel Pennsylvania, where the American Legion has its headquarters, is one of the cynical ones. Although the four-day convention does'nt start officially until Thursday, the Pennsylvania lobby is already bare.

All lamps, chairs and sofas are in storage. But at the Lexington Hotel where about 800 Legionnaires are to be guests the manager summed up his plans for the invasion in one word "nothing." He said he thought the fear of horseplay "rather mythical" and believed the destructive element among the Legionnaires would be small. "After all." he said, "they are all human beings." Manager J. T. Harper at the Hotel Edison was unconcerned, jut not so trusting.

He said he was moving the furniture out of the lobby to make room for bands that may come in and parade around. "Nothing spectacular." he added. "Just the same thing we do on New Year's Eve." The Pennsylvania and the Hotel New Yorker got together on the pillow and telephone book situation and worked it out like this: Since the Legion's parades don't pass the Pennsylvania, the latter will leave the pillows and phone bocks in the rooms. But the 40 and 8 parade does pass the New Yorker, so during certain hours there will be no pillows or telephone books in the rooms. Any one who wants to throw confetti will have to smuggle it in.

Gideon Bibles, however, will stay in all rooms at both hotels they "might help deter the wicked intentions." Bravest of al is the Governor Clinton Hotel. Although it will house the Forty-and-Eignters, its management maintained a business-as-usual attitude, even when a colleague pointed out: "That outfit is supposed to be hell on wheels." nothing more should be expected from official quarters, today's brief Elks and the Wilmington Florist ped with huge water pistols, got in Cenllnued Frees First Pag Association of which he once served a little pre-convention marksman statement added: as president. ship practice in front of the Hotel Constructions and operations at son.

Phelps RAPID GROWTH OF CLUB Members of the Optimist Club of Wilmington at their monthly meeting last night in the Hob Tea Room heard a taik by Larry Gibbons, of versal military training law. His stand has drawn support from most of the leading candidates to succeed him in the high Legion job. However, Legion officials agree prospects for a special session are slim. Robert C.

Goodwin, director of the U. S. Employment Service, told the Legion's national employment Philadelphia, lieutenant-governor of C1W, v.i er, today. Dr. Diny said that Archmere has about 100 boarding students in its enrollment of 150 boys and that they come from as far as Mexico.

This complicates the problem, he added. Boarding students are scheduled to report for assignment or classes on Sept. 8 and day students on Sept. 7 with classroom work to begin on Sept. 9.

This was based on Mr. Carr's study of what he said were changes made in several large cities to accommodate the fixed type manufactured by a St.

Louis, company. Fixed Awnings Disapproved All of the directors of the department were opposed to changing the regulations, principally on grounds of safety. The directors did not reach an immediate decision as to what would be done with several installations made before the company was ordered to appear before the board back in June. The directors explained that their ruling against the fixed awnings extends only to awnings which hang over the building line. They emphasized they were not concerned where the awnings involved extended in back of the committee 12,000,000 World War II veterans now held jobs, indicating Delancy E.

The legation statement was made after a representative of the Ministry of Information told a news conference "I must refute" the account of Pfeiffer's beating. An American doctor, Harry C. McClain, was told by an intermediary that he could not examine Pfeiffer, and that even a Hungarian civilian doctor would not be allowed to see him. Pfeiffer was being attended by a police surgeon.
