Haydon Burns would make the announcement. HE SAID Orlando may get a new city as a result of the location. "The only thing I can tell you is that it is big and fat," he added. Then Gov.

Burns, at a Republicans Criticize Congress WASHINGTON (UPI) Republican organizational leaders Saturday called the newly adjourned session a "hip pocket Congress" that ground out too much quantity and not enough quality. House GOP Leadec Gerald R. Ford, said the session "clearly demonstrates the evils of one-party dominance of the national government" and showed that "the executive branch unchecked becomes careless and arrogant." SENATE GOP leader Everett M. Dirksen, 111., said he agreed with Democratic Leader Mike Mansfield, that the next session convening Jan. 10 has plenty of rough edges and overlaps to clear up.

Dirksen and Ford met with newsmen for their last "Ev and Jerry show" of the year scarcely 10 hours after Congress had finally adjourned for the year. Red Leader Warns U.S. MOSCOW (UPI) Soviet Communist party leader Leonid Brezhnev demanded Saturday that the United States get out of Viet Nam. He also stepped up the current Soviet attack on West Germany. He warned that if "minor conflagrations" such as the Vietnamese war are not "extinguished in time, they may flare up into a universal missile war." SPEAKING AT ceremonies in Kiev honoring the city for its "hero's role" in World War II, Brezhnev said West Germany "has never dropped the idea of revenge for the second World War and is asking for access to rockets and nuclear weapons." He warned that any German attempt at revenge will mean "nuclear war with all its consequences." County VI KV WW QzCovriy yWWW' Am.

In early June the Osceola County Commission was asked to include a short period on its Nov. 15 agenda in order that the ''pro per representatives could brief the commission on who and what the mystery industry would be." On June 24, Helliwell broke a long silence to announce that the project was now in the "second phase" of development. He confirmed all purchases, announced that options on the last two sizable pieces of land involved would be closed in two days, which they were, and that they were going into phase two of the operation, which involved planning, engineering and many other matters. HE SAID that the industry would employe 5,000 people and bring an additional 20,000 people into the Orlando area, but he would not identify the industry or any of the people associated with it.

As interest and tension mounted, land surrounding the mystery tract began to go for prices in excess of the average acreage price, and the buyers were from California. A few days after Hel-liwell's announcement, a story in The Sentinel said latest word had it that some of the companies previously mentioned would participate in a plan to put together a life-sized model of the city of the future, depicting -what life will be like about the year 2050. WALT DISNEY would furnish the ideas and put the overall package together, the story said. And so it went, through a hot summer and early fall. On Oct.

1, Helliwell visited here again and announced that the mystery industry and its plans would be identified here on Nov. 15 at a press confer that would provide new federal powers to combat racial discrimination in the administration of justice in the South, it was learned Saturday. One proposal being prepared for submission to Congress early next year is aimed at tightening standards for selection of trial juries This, came to light after an all-white jury in Hayne-ville, Friday acquitted Ku Klux Klansman Collie Leroy Wilkins of the murder last March of Mrs. Viola Liuzzo, a white civil rights worker from Detroit. Gen.

Nicholas Katzenback had no comment on the result of Wilkins' second trial. The first ended in a hung jury. But informed sources said that a wave of protests over the trial and a similar acquittal in Hayneville of Thomas Coleman in the death of another civil rights worker could be the catalyst for legislative action. "The form that our action takes is not the important thing," one Justice Department official said. "The significant fact is that we are about to move strongly in this Legislation under consideration is expected to provide for making a federal crime of civil rights slaylngs or assaults, empower the Justice Department to bring civil suits to prevent racial discrimination in the selection of juries, and establish uniform and nondiscriminatory standards for jury selections.

Joseph L. Rauh Jr. of Washington, chief counsel for the Civil Rights Leadership Conference, said Saturday that public reaction to the "repulsive performance in Hayneville Friday" was sure to heighten chances for strong congressional action. conference in Orlando 10 days ago, said he would have a face-to-face meeting with Disney in Tallahassee during the first week in November. THE GOVE RNOR explained that he had scheduled four meetings with motion picture directors to talk about Florida's expanding movie and TV industry, and that Disney was one of the four people he was to meet, and that it was about movie-making and not the mystery industry.

And that's, the way it went and was. But today, the year that "was the year that was" for Central Florida has come, to its richly satisfying conclusion.

Disney Will Build His 'City Of Tomorrow' Boom 1J mt't ..1, Wc Say: Walt Disney Is Coming He dresses in true California understated fashion: the blue slacks, the harmonizing sport coat, the pale blue shirt open at the neck, the soft-soled shoes. Although Disney spends most of his working time at the Burbank studio, his interests span the continent and his private turbo jet, a 15 -passenger Gulfstream keeps him in touch. FOR WEEKENDS he has a twin engine Beechcraft to transport him from his Los Angeles office to his Palm Springs home and back. In his younger days he played golf, switched to polo "it's just golf on horseback" then gave up both because they were too time consuming.

His favorite exercise now is lawn bowling, played on his private green in Palm Springs. Disney says he got the idea for Disneyland when his daughters were small and he took them to an amusement park. "SATURDAY was Dad day," he explains, "I used to sit on park benches as they rode the merry-go-round and I wondered why parks were so dirty and unimaginative." The vision of Disneyland took shape in his mind and in 1948 he borrowed on his insurance to make it reality. "It scared my wife to death," he remembers with a grin. DISNEY IS married to the former Lillian Bounds of Idaho.

Their two daughters are Diane, married to Ron Miller, USC honor student and football star, now a production executive at Disney's; and Sharon, wife of Robert Brown, a designer for WED Enterprises, Inc. The Millers have six children. In business Walt has been a lifelong partner with his elder brother Roy president of Walt Disney Productions. Another brother, Raymond is an insurance broker.
