Webb told congressional investigators that release of the report would damage the agency's relationship with North American. Instead, at the suggestion of Rep.

Olin E. Teague, chairman of the House NASA Oversight subcommittee, Webb submitted a summary of the report. NASA's brief announcement Saturday said discussions are being held with North American, Aerojet General Boeing General Electric Lockheed Aircraft Corp. the Martin Co. and McDonnell Douglas Corp.

NASA said the talks are to get the Apollo man to the moon program back to full operation as soon as possible following the Apollo accident. The space agency did not comment on Ryan's release of the Phillips report. NORTH AMERICAN TARGET In general the 20-page report represents sweeping criticism of management, workmanship and engineering at North American. Author of the report, Maj. Gen.

Samuel S. Phillips, sent his findings to the president of North American, J. L. Atwood, Dec. 19, 1965.

In a cover letter, he said, "The conclusions expressed in our briefing and notes are critical. Even with due consideration of hopeful signs, I could not find a substantive basis for confidence in future performance." Among the findings of the report was that North American "must take immediate and effective action to improve the quality of workmanship and to tighten their own inspection. Performance goals for demonstrating high quality must be established and trend data must be maintained and given serious He Would Repeal U.S. Requirement On Gold Reserve BOCA RATON (UI) Sen. Vance Hartke, D- Ta member of the Senate Finance Committee, Saturday called for repeal of the legal requirement that the United States maintain a 25 per cent gold reserve to back federal reserve notes and bank deposits.

The U.S. dollar, backed by productivity of leading manufacturing nation, actually is the world's trading currency and needs no gold reserve, he said in remarks prepared for the marine transportation council here. Hartke argued the U. S. gold supply has shrunk to the "dangerous 29-year low of some $13.1 billion, and a change in our gold policy is needed Board Revamped ST.

(AP Wirephoto Map) More Sunshine For Floridians attention by management to correct this unsatisfactory Phillips said in testimony before congressional investigating committees that he in a return study four months later that North American had corrected some of the deficieneies.

And he said the firm was making satisfactory progress toward correcting the rest. But Ryan said the Apollo review board on the accident listed many of the same deficiencies found in the Phillips report. Therefore, Ryan argues, "The only reasonable and objective conclusion is that North American Aviation did not clear up the deficiencies pointed out i in the Phillips report and that NASA did not exercise proper supervision thereafter." The 20-page report, headed "NASA Review Team was based on studies at North American's Downey, plant between Nov. 22 and Dec. 6, 1965: The restudy was made in April 1966.

The astronauts died in a flash fire in the spacecraft as it was on the launch pad at Cape Kennedy for what were considered nonhazardous tests. Ryan says that "apparently, because of failure by NASA and its contractor, North American Aviation, their lives were unnecessarily sacrificed." U.S. Starts Evacuation In Yemen WASHINGTON (AP) Evacuation of Americans from Yemen began Saturday while the U.S. diplomats continued to seek freedom for two U.S. aid officials arrested on sabotage charges.

Department officials reported that a chartered Ethio-pian DC3 airliner ferried 34 American officials and their families from troubled Ta'izz, a principal Yemeni provincial city, across the Red Sea to Asmara in Eritrea. More Americans are slated to be flown out of the tiny Arabian Peninsula republic Sunday in the wake of Friday's U.S. decision to close its aid mission and pull out most Americans there. About 120 U.S. diplomatic, aid and other official personnel and their families are in Yemen.

Some 77, including 62 with the aid mission, have been at Ta'izz, where a mob assaulted the U.S. Embassy and aid buildings Wednesday. State Department. officials said that despite continued U.S. efforts for their release, the Yemenis still are holding U.S.

aid officials Stephen Liapis, of Grand Forks, N.D., and Harold Hartman of Baltimore, Md. The two were seized on Yemeni charges that they tried to blow up Ta'izz by firing as at ammunition dumps. The United States has denounced the allegations as total Washington authorities said that the Egyptians have given a polite hearing to the U.S. request for Cairo's help in assuring the safety of U.S. citizens in Yemen and in obtaining freedom for the two under arrest.

But they said they did not know to what extent the Egyptians were actually acting on the U.S. plea. Egypt wields considerable influence with the Republican Yemeni regime and has thousands of troops there. Maddox Against Parimutuel Bets ATLANTA (AP) Any move by the legislature to legalize parimutuel betting in Georgia would be vetoed, Gov. Lester Maddox says.

"I will resist it with all the powers of my office," Maddox said Friday. House Speaker George L. Smith assigned a member committee Friday to study the possibility of using betting as an additional source of state revenue. "I'm getting SO disgusted with people who say let's do this because we'll get some money out of it," Maddox said. "Dollars are important but so are our boys and girls."

Those who failed to advance their clocks were in danger of showing up late for church and other appointments as Florida joined most of the rest of the country in adopting Daylight Saving Time.

For many years, the state has remained on standard time during the summer. But this year, congress decreed daylight time for the entire nation except for states exempted specifically by their legislatures. There was a lot of talk about it in Florida's legislature. But nothing happened except defeat of a bill to let citizens vote on whether they wanted DST. So the state will have daylight time until 2 a.m.

the last Sunday of October. CITIES IN FAVOR Polls indicate that Florida's city dwellers generally favored daylight time. Most of those in the rural areas either were opposed or didn't care one way or the other. Advocates of daylight time have been defeated in the legislature in past years by small county lawmakers reflecting the feeling of farmers who complained, for example, that it would be impossible to get their cows to switch their milking schedules. Many years ago, there was a partial adoption of daylight time in Florida with cities and counties deciding for themselves whether they wanted it.

General confusion resulted and the practice was dropped. About the only organized Florida opposition to DST this year came from theater owners who now will face competition from the outdoor activities which an extra hour of sunlight permits. Said President Harry Glover of the motion picture theater owners of Florida. "You don't need Washington telling you LONG BEACH, Calif. (AP) A dark-haired model from Buenos Aires was chosen Miss International Beauty on Saturday night at the Long Beach Auditorium in the nationally televised pageant.

Miss Argentina, Mirta Teresita Massa, 19, was selected for the $10,000 first-place prize over 82 contestants from around the world. First runner-up was Miss Israel, Yaffa Sharir, 21, a student from Haifa; second runner-up was the American entry, Pamela Elfast, 19, of East Orange, N.J., who had been named to represent the United States last week; third runner-up was Miss Peru, Martha Quimper, 19, of Lima, and the fourth runner-up was Miss Hong Kong, Gisella Ma Wai Kit, 19. Miss Massa, an only child, hopes to be an actress. Before the final judging, she said she would travel around the world to buy antiques if she won, and added: "I also want to buy a house for my parents and give them every comfort. I shall also buy a cruiser." Rather slender for her 5 feet 7, the new queen admits, "I don't take care of myself and I don't diet at all." But at 120 pounds her measurements are Miss Sharir, who will resume studies at the University of Israel in the fall, was a popular runner-up.

The 82 contestants, in a secret ballot, named Miss Georgia, Julia Anna Bickerstaff, 20, of Clayton, as Miss Friendship. She is a journalism major at the University of Georgia. She's Picked As World's Beauty Queen Hard Swing By Surveyor Dents Moon PASADENA, Calif. (A) America's Surveyor 3 took a hard swing at the moon, but dented the crust very little, scientists reported Saturday. "We dropped the soil sampler on the crust six a spokesman at the Jet ropulsion Laboratory said.

"We dropped it from six inches, 12 inches and 24 inches, and the maximum penetration of the soil was about inches." He said scientists haven't studied all the data received yet, "but so far, the only thing it indicated is we din't break the Continued surveys with the 620-pound craft's camera were ordered, and, "We shot 994 pictures in today's program. That brings the total up to 4,626 pictures."

Some parents also objected, saying their youngsters! would have to leave for school in the dark in some cases. Other mothers and fathers said it would be hard to get children to bed while it was still daylight.

On the longest day of the year, June 21, the sky will be light until well after 9 p.m. Said one man, a father of five, "I don't want the kids up an hour longer. If it doesn't drive me berserk, it surely will drive my wife berserk." But a stern mother differed. She also has five children. "But, she said, "I believe in discipline.

The Coast Guard reported Saturday a distress call from the Soviet vessel Kaspijsk about 130 miles east of Cape Cod. The vessel reported two men were washed overboard at 4:30 p.m. Friday and asked for a Coast Guard plane to conduct an air search for them.

An airplane from the Salem Coast Guard base, already in the area on a search mission, was dispatched. A Coast Guard spokesman said the temperature of the sea in the area is 38 degrees. "A man could live for half an hour in that water," the spokesman said, "and those men have been in it for a day." Rescue ships and a U.S. Coast Guard plane raced out from New England and Nova Scotia to help the fishing vessels trapped and battered by the raging storm that was gradually leasing. The Liberian freighter Costa Rican Trader was in danger of breaking up after it went aground on rocks near the harbor approaches to Halifax, Nova Scotia.

The crew made it to safety. The six-man crew of the 94- foot lobster boat Deep Water, out of New Bedford, was missing after the vessel vanished about 100 miles south of Martha's Vineyard Island Friday. The fishing vessel Elizabeth out of New Bedford with a crew of six, was reported missing Saturday. A spokesman for the New Bedford Seafood Producers Association said it was last seen Thursday noon off Nantucket Island. Winds were recorded at up to 50 miles per hour Saturday, churning up waves 20 feet high.

The U.S. Weather Bureau said the storm center, some 400 to 500 miles southeast. of Nantucklet Island, was moving slowly eastward. But the storm effects, it said, would be felt through today. The coast Guard cutter Acushnet, battled for hours to attach a two line to the 102-foot Boston trawler Plymouth with five men aboard about 75 miles east-southeast of Nantucket and began to tow it to shore.

A Coast Guard plane dropped a pump to the Plymouth earlier, then flew on to the New Bedford fishing vessel Noreen, also in trouble off Nantucket. The Noreen, with a crew of 1 11, controlled the flooding and apparently was out of danger. Five persons reported missing off the coast of Nova Scotia four aboard the fishing vessel Lena G. and one in a canoe were found Saturday. Death View Death View PROVINCETOWN, Mass.

(AP). The Massachusetts Chiefs of Police Association has adopted resolution saying capital punishment should remain as a penalty for murder. The Lena G. was taken ashore at Victoria Beach in Nova Scotia and the 26-year-old canoe rider was found on a tiny island in nearby St. Margaret's Bay, Nova Scotia rescue ships were standing by three other fishing vessels that had called for help after the storm struck.

The vessels were not believed to be in danger of sinking. At the height of the storm, the Coast Guard said, wind gusts were recorded up to 90 miles per hour with waves more than 50 feet high. Snow cut visibility to less than half a mile. Heavy waves battered the coast line, rolling in far above the normal high tide line. In Biddeford, Maine, surf washed away about 50 feet of land, as the ocean rolled to within 10 feet of road pavement.

The front yard of a home in Biddeford, facing the ocean, was washed away when the waves broke through a bulkhead. At Cape Ellis, another home was flooded when a log washed over a sea wall and broke through a door. The missing vessel Deep Water had radioed she was in immediate danger after taking on water off Nantucket. The message said her wheelhouse was smashed and her engines out. Her skipper, George Edwards, said the only dory aboard was destroyed.

A Coast spokesman said of finding any of the six-man crew alive were not very good. Mutton In Beef; It's Seized United Press International The Florida Commissioner of agriculture ordered 21,660 pounds of meat from New Jersey seized Saturday becaused it was laced with mutton and sold under a beef label. Commissioner Doyle Conner ordered an additional 5,984 pounds of finished chopped beef patties withheld from sale in the state until tests can be made to determine if muton had been added. Department of agriculture inspectors were ordered to seize 16,200 pounds of partly defatted chopped meat for use in processed meat products now in storage at a Dade The (Miami) meat processing was shipped into Florida by the Philadelphia Refining and Packaging Camden, N.J. A stop use order was struck on an additional 5,460 pounds of chopped meat shipped into the state Thenco, Inc.

of Kearney, The product was turned over to federal meat inspectors in Miami. Conner said the packages containing the beef products were mislabeled because the labels did not state that mutton had been added. Conner said he plans to ask U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Orville Freeman to halt shipments of adulterated meats into Florida. With Wife, Daughter Moonship Critic Dies In Car- Crash TITUSVILLE (UPI) A former Apollo quality control inspector who told congressional investigators of numerous shortcomings in America's moonship program has been killed with his wife and stepdaughter, in a cartrain collision.

Thomas R. Baron, 29, died when his car was struck by Florida East Coast railway switch engine at a road crossing north of here Friday night a week after he testified for more than an hour before a House subcommittee inquiring into the Apollo 1 tragedy. Baron, discharged by North American Aviation before the Jan. 27 fire that killed three astronauts, accused the company of management and sloppy workmanship. North American builds the Apollo spacecraft.

He wrote a 55-page report before the accident occurred listing his charges and after the moonship disaster he expanded the document to more than 500 pages. Both were submitted to the House Space Subcommittee investigating the spacecraft fire. Baron testified before the committee at a special session at the nearby Kennedy Space Center for more than an hour April 21. He fielded numerous A 15-year-old girl was admitted to Tallahassee Memoria Hospital yesterday after a motorcycle she didn't know how to ride carried her about 75 feet before crashing onto a cement driveway. Elizabeth Ann Thurman, 415 Ingleside Drive, reportedly got on the motorcycle about noon yesterday in the 400 block of Ingleside and was attempting to "only crank it" when the cycle sped off with her.

Police officer B. A. Vaugh was told the girl "didn't know how to ride it" and investigation revealed the cycle traveled across Ingleside, onto a yard, and hit a three foot embankment, spilling the lone passenger onto a cement driveway. The girl, according to a police report, was not charged. Damage to the cycle was estimated at $35.

In other accidents, Leona W. Tookes, 521 Hampton Avenue, was treated for injuries and released from A Hospital along with a son Darryl, 11, after the car they were riding in, smashed into a parked car. Mrs. Tookes, 521 Hampton Street, was charged with failing to have her vehicle under control and causing an accident. Police said she was driving down Boulevard Street about 10 a.m.

when her car hit a car owned by Theora C. Floyd, University Guest House. Damage to the Tookes car was estimated at $300 and $100 to the Floyd vehicle. An accident at the corner of Carolina and Monroe Streets early yesterday afternoon caused a total of $1300 in damages to the two vehicles involved. Philip Walz 1828 Ivanhoe Drive, was charged with disregarding a red light, after his truck smacked into a station wagon driven by Leonard Clark, 2335 Old St.

"It has caused North American to really search its procedures," Teague said. Baron had been unemployed since leaving North American. He and his family lived in a trailer home near here in Mims.

The Florida Highway Patrol reported that the accident oCcurred at a rail crossing marke dby the standard X- shaped sign. Baron's car had proceeded parallel to the tracks and then turned to cross the railroad. Troopers estimated that the switch engine was travelling about 40 miles per hour and Baron's car about 30 MPH when the collision occurred. Baron's car was dragged about 30 feet and then flipped end over end into a ditch. He, his wife Marlene, and a stepdaughter, Penny, 4, were thrown from the car and killed.

He said 1,700 now are assigned to the program. 113 ON ORDER Boyd told newsmen that airlines have ordered 113 of the supersonic transport planes which are intended primarily for longhaul operations.

He said 300 are erpected to be made and sold adding the figure is based on the most pessimistic reading of prospects. The Soviet government and a French-British combine each is expected to have supersonic transports in commercial service in well ahead of the United States. It was believed the Russians were trying to have their TU114 at next month's Paris air show but informed sources said two weeks ago it would not be ready. They said, however, the Soviet aircraft factory, named for designer Andrei N. Tupolev, is hoping to get the plane into the air for a test flight by late this year.

This would be ahead of the French-British Concorde, a plane it closely resembles. The test flight date fo rthe Concorde is next 28. The French Concorde is expected to be about 20 per cent slower than the projected U.S. SST and have a 50 per cent lower passenger capacity..
