Daugherty said because there is no single building in the state capital large enough to house the expected crowd, the inaugural ball and receptions will be held in several locations. are also hopeful that one or two ferries can be docked at Juneau to be used as housing facilities during the inauguration," he said. But there are no official words on this yet. The theme of the celebration is "The Centennial and Economic Development." It will begin Jan. 13 with an open house for the public at the governor's mansion, at 6:30 p.m.

(AP) -Batman, television's caped crusader, holds the balance of power in a City Commission case, all because some joker put his name on a write-in ballot. Amazed officials counted the votes in an election Tuesday for a city commissioner three times and each time got the same result. Candidates Howard James and Joseph Stargel each received 674 votes and there was one write-in vote for Batman. The votes were made official. Stan Davis, manager of the Northward Building, asked the commission at an informal hearing on the ordinance, to alter present specifications on parking.

These specifications require a certain number of parking spaces be provided by the builders of new buildings downtown. At present the downtown core area need not provide off-street parking, "An office building the size of the Northward," Davis said, "would have to provide 2,000 parking spaces. This adds up to 700,000 sq. ft. or 10 full city blocks.

"We would have a sea of parking with a building here or there. A different provision has to be made for parking." Davis, who has acted as spokesman for downtown businessmen before the City Council on several occasions recently, said that the zoning ordinance should require off-street parking facilities near buildings, not necessarily around them. He called thepresentprovision for parking in the proposed ordinance "unrealistic in this country." "It would be the end of Fairbanks," Davis contended, "the end of a core or downtown area." In other business, the Planning Commission discussed the comprehensive plan for the borough now in preparation. neau-Douglas High School from 10 a.m. to noon.

Entertainment will come from all over the state and includes a blanket toss and Native dances. At 1:30 p.m. an inaugural procession will form at the governor's mansion and escort the governor, secretary of state and their party to the formal inauguration ceremony to be held in the high school. A social hour for registered guests will follow at 5 p.m. in four downtown bank lobbies.

The inaugural ball is scheduled for 9:30 that evening. It will be held at four locations and the governor and his lady will appear at each. Invitation lists are being compiled by Workers for Wally committees throughout the state, under the direction of campaign chairmen. Gruening Asking Rate Hike Probe JUNEAU (AP) Sen. Ernest Gruening, D-Alaska, said today' he has asked the Federal Maritime Commission to conduct a searching investigation of rate increase proposals by the Alaska Steamship Co.

The FMC only Tuesday suspended for 120 days the bulk of new tariffs filed by the company on freight rates between Alaska and Seattle. The new rates had been scheduled to go into effect Friday. The FMC said the new rate proposals would be consolidated into a hearing on earlier rate increases filed by Alaska Steam on shipments to Southeast Alaska, "The commission decision to include investigation of questions of efficiency of operationof the Alaska Steamship Co. also is welcome recognition that, not only high costs, but standards of service for the people of Alaska are essential considerations in determining the terms upon which service to Alaska should be conducted," Gruening wired Adm. John Harllee, chairman of the commission.

Gruening told Harllee he regretted the commission had not suspended all of the proposed new rates, including those covering shipments to Seward, Cordova and Valdez, TOCKMARKET ABC Cons 1C livduc i AJ Indust tt's Aiijwi cn AJlis Chal Am Uixfcst 7J Am Can 4S Am F4 39 1 Vm MFdj I3v Am Met Cl 41-i'4 Am Mot 6'; 4 Am Gas 41 Am Am Tob no -1 4 Ampcx Cp 2,1 Anaconda SO 1 Armco stl 4-' Armour 29 Alchlson AtlaS Cp Avco Corp 2-i; Bali Oh 29 I'ds -19 But'di'Aii'c 2 i i i 1 HothSiwl 28 4 Itoist Cascade 22 BOfdifn.M Bert; Wiirn 37S, Uudd Co 4 Dui-1 Ind 2'iVn Cal 1'JcK Camp Soup 23 Cdn I'ac Caso Jl Caicr Toe Celaiwse Ml 4 9 CFlStl I Ches Oh 62V, Chi 32 Chrysler 32 Cities Sv Coca Cola Colo Im Gas 2sV.

(AP) A predawn blast today damaged a car and shattered windows at the home of a family reportedly threatened for not opposing racial integration in their neighborhood. James Ervin; his wife, Mary; and their three children Jerry, Joe, and Rye, 7 were asleep in the house on McDonald-Hutchinson Road about a half mile north of Charlotte.

All escaped injury. Ervin, a white man, told newsmen that he and his wife had received threatening telephone calls about six months ago. He said before the threats there were calls seeking to enlist his help in "running those colored people" away from the Durham Lane area near his home, "I told them I didn't want anything to do with it," Ervin said. Then came the threatening calls. "They told me and my wife it would be too bad for us if we went to the police," he said.

Police said it had not been determined whether a bomb caused the 3 a.m. blast. "All we know is that it was an explosion," an officer said. Red Chinese In Trouble, Rusk Warns TAIPEI, Formosa (AP) '-Secretary of State Dean Rusk said today authorities in Red China "have run into very serious problems in both their internal economic situation and in their relations with the rest of the world." "They have isolated themselves even within the Communist world," Rusk told reporters on his arrival from ToKyo for a two-day visit to Formosa. Rusk said there was still something of a mystery as to what is happening to the Chinese Communist leaders.

But he said he was suretthat the events taking place there "are very important although we do not know what they mean." Rusk answered "No" when asked if there had been any change in U.S. policy on the question of Chinese membership in the United Nations. Rusk, who is leaving Friday for South Viet Nam said in reply to a question about the situation there: think it is quite clear now that the North Vietnamese and the Viet Cong will not be able to achieve a military success there. "And I think the sooner they recognize it and start moving toward better for all concerned." Reverting to the situation on the mainland, Rusk said: "It is very unfortunate that the authorities in Peking did not sign the nuclear test ban treaty and that'they injected this part of the world to the nuclear arms problem. "But we don't anticipate that that's going to be a security threat to our allies or to us fora very long time to come.

"It would be an act of madness for them to think about using any such weapons." Mechanics Course Future Shaky; Funds in Doubt The Fairbanks North Star Borough school of aviation, operating since January as an MDTA program to tram aircraft frame and powerplant mechanics, is facing an imminent grounding when the current 53-week session winds up.

Husband E. Kimmel says he hasn't forgotten Pearl Harbor and never will. He says he was blamed for America's worst naval defeat "and that's a bum rap." Kimmel, on Dec.

7, 1941, was commander of the combined United States and Pacific fleets. Ten days after Japan knocked out 18 ships and killed 3,435 Americans, Kimmel was relieved of command, three months later he was retired. The retired admiral, now living in Groton, says he lives to expose the Pearl Harbor affair. -(AP Wirephoto) Japanese Attack Recalled by Nitze (Related Stories Pg 2) PEARL HARBOR, Hawaii (AP) --Secretary of the Navy Paul H. Nitze said today the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor 25 years ago taught the United States unforgettable lessons which must now be applied in Southeast Asia.

Speaking at services at the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific Nitze said that the sacrifice of" 2,400 men who died at Pearl Harbor taught the United States it must maintain a deterrent to enemy attack "with strategic forces appropriately deployed and tactical defensive forces ready to move wherever they are needed." He said that Pearl Harbor also taught "that we must be prepared to prevent the flaunting of international agreements and treaties, by military force if necessary." Nitze reminded his audience of 900 survivors and their families that "peace has yet to come to Asia; and the United States once again is fighting there. A new and powerful menace looms." "The danger in Asia today is the threat posed to the rest of Asia by aggression," he added. He said that the surprise bombing of Dec. 7, 1941, demon- that freedom cannot be preserved by policies of neutrality and isolation. "Today we remember those who died at Pearl Harbor and reflect on what their sacrifices, and the sacrifices of many who followed them have meant to the country," Nitze continued.

He said that as well as the militaristic lessons learned, the sacrifice of so many American lives helped to change the Japan of 1941 into "a major power on the side of peace and respect for international law, a staunch friend and a fortress of democracy in the Pacific." The ceremony in Punchbowl Crater was sponsored by the Pearl Harbor Survivors Association, whose members have been touring the Hawaiian islands this week and showing their families what it was like on that Sunday in 1941.

"They wanted to get 'the United States into the war." Asked who he meant by "they," Kimmel replied: "That was 'President Roosevelt and Gen. George Marshall and others in the Washington high command. FDR was the architect of the whole business. He gave orders and I can't prove this categorically that no word about Japanese fleet movements was to be sent to Pearl Harbor except by Marshall and then he told Marshall not to send anything." able. School board members voted last night to ask U.

S. Sen. E. L. (Bob) Bartlett and other members of Alaska's congressional delegation to press for funds to continue the aircraft school.

The current year's operating costs are estimated at $203.592. A second 53-week course, also designed for 30 students, would cost roughly $151,000. More than half the 21 graduates of the power plant course at the school have already passed FAA power plant examinations and have received their certificates, according to Charlie Richmond, one of the instructors at the school. The course at International Airport is the first and only one of its kind in the state. About half the students are from the Fairbanks and Interior Alaska areas, the rest from throughout the state.

Richmond says he and the rest of the instructors Alexander Gordy. Mike Fisher and Merlin Barkdull --are very pleased with the results of the course. Maintenance men from Wien Air Alaska, Interior Airlines and carriers are alsopleased with the course. Richmond says. If funds are somehow found for- a second 53-week course.

Richmond says, "there's no way to go but Trainees for the school were picked out by Alaska State Employment Service offices throughout the state. Before the course, most of the men were either unemployed or underemployed, according to Richmond. Once they're enrolled in the aircraft course, students spend 60 to 70 per cent of their time in actual shop work. The remainder of class time is taken up with theory. Richmond says --put across by lectures, motion pictures, slides and other visual aids.

Instructors aim at acclimating their students toward Alaskan aviation, but once a student has his FAA "tickets" he's able to work almost anywhere--and the aircraft repair field is wide open. Richmond says. Of the 30 original students in the current class, nine dropped out and 21 completedthepow- er plant portion of the course. Students were added to replace those who dropped out, Richmond said. Of the students remaining in the course, he expects more than 20 to complete the instruction successfully.

DALLAS, Tex. (AP) Dist. Atty. Henry Wade says he again will demand the death penalty for Jack Ruby. The defense discounts Wade's chances for winning it in a new trial of the man who killed Lee Harvey Oswald.

These viewpoints were voiced after Wichita Falls was designated Tuesday as the site of a second trial, possibly in February, as ordered by the Texas Co'u'rt of Criminal Appeals. Defense counsel pointed out that the appellate court specifically barred the admissibility of testimony by a policeman, heard earlier, which indicated premeditation by Ruby to shoot the accused presidential assassin. Ruby's lawyers said elimination of that evidence brightened their prospects for a murder- without-malice verdict, which does not carry the death sentence. Wade said "we have five or six new witnesses we are going to use." He gave no details. (Continued from Page 1) There was speculation, however that the slaying might have' an effect on the running feud between politicians native to South Viet N'am and the refugees from North Viet Xam who dominate the government.

Ky and most of the generals on the ruling junta are from the north. Tran Van Van was a leading member of the southern faction and ran for the Constituent Assembly on a platform that openly appealed to southern sectionalism. On the war front, U.S. pilots flew 70 strike missions over North Viet Nam Tuesday, hitting at lines of communications and storage areas in the Hanoi, Haiphong and Dien Bien Phu areas and in the southern panhandle. Air Force pilots reported knocking out a bridge 73 miles northeast of Dien Bien Phu, and Navy fliers claimed hits on 10 cargo barges 45 miles northwest of coastal Dong Hoi.

The U.S. command announced that one of two American jets lost over North Viet Nam Monday was the victim of a Communist MIG17, and the pilot was missing. It was the first American loss credited to the Communist jets since July. Since U. S.

air attacks on the north began 22 months ago, the United States has reported the loss of six planes to MIGs. U.S. pilots have reported downing 26 of the Red jets and probably two more.

The 1 547-pound payload, called ATS for Applications Technology Satellite, bolted away Tuesday night from Cape Kennedy atop an Atlas-Agena rocket. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration reported the rocket performed perfectly and drilled ATS into an initial transfer orbit ranging from 115 to 22 749 miles above the earth.

"So" far it looks beautiful," a NASA official reported. Today a kick motor was to fire and place ATS in a so-called synchronous orbit 22,300 miles above the Pacific. It would seem to hover above Christmas Island. The satellite is the firstof five $9-million ATS payloads which officials said are being built "for, the express purpose of bribing practical benefits to mankind from space technology." From its stationary orbit, ATS would be able to photograph one- third of the earth on a continuing basis--providing meteorologists with a record of the birth and movement of major storm systems. Ground stations in Australia, Japan and the United States planned to swap voice, radio and television communications through the satellite, using frequencies not tried on earlier communications satellites..
