American Brings Taste Of Today To Escondida ESCONDIDA, Mexico (AP) For the first time, the 45 children in the adobe school house of this tiny Mexican village are sitting at desks instead of on the floor. They're writing with long, firm sticks of, chalk on a shiny blackboard that wasn't there before, and at. recess they play with the first-basketballs many of them ever saw. Richard Streb, an American, brought them a taste of the 20Ui Century after he stumbled on to Escondida last year while searching for archaeological ruins. Tba villtgt was similar to many which still exist throughout Mexico despite government efforts ani fradual progress.

Escondida had no electricity. Its streets were nitty and unpaved. Basic sanitary facilities were unknown. Its two-story adobe schoolhouse was virtually bare. It was only 250 miles west of bustling Mexico City, but its life another century.

iSfjrii itsi name, which in Engligh means "hidden," echoed its isolation, As the village teacher talked with Streb she raked her fingers through her in a futile effort to arrange it. She had no Strtb'talkod with other villagers, learned that 19 of the 45 schoolchildren were orphans, and that the highest ambition of many of Escondida's 200 residents was to leave their village forever. Streb promised the villagers he would return with help. Back in Levittown, N.Y., he told the students and teachers at Jonas E. Salk Junior High School about Escondida, organized a Mexican fiesta to raise money, and got help from businessmen.

With $1,644 in his pockets and a Mexican flag made by his wife for the villagers, Streb came back to Escondida to keep his promise. Taking the village leaders with him, Streb set out for Guadalajara, the' nearest large city, and spent the money he had raised. Back to Escondida he brought thousand pencils, dozens of books, of thumbtacks and chalk, maps and desks to outfit the school. He brought a complete outfit of clothes for every man and boy in the village, and bolts of cloth to make dresses for the women and girls. He brought a sewing machine, tools, basketballs, baseballs, and factory-made candy to give the children a rare treat.

With an eye toward improving the villagers standard diet of frijoles and tortillas, he brought 20 and 20 rabbits and ma- terial to build peas for them. Said school teacher Hefugio Rodriguez as. she watched the desks for her s'chpol being unloaded: "No words can tell the people of Levittown how grateful the people of Escondida are for this generous gift." Streb hopes to talk other U.S. schools into raising money to help oiher needy Mexican villages. Read the Chronicle Classifieds.

Animals Take High Ride MOFFETT FIELD, Calif. (AP) --Two monkeys and four hamsters drifted across Canada in a balloon today in the Uiird of a series of high-altitude tests considered a prelude to manned lunar flight. The balloon and its four capsules were launched Thursday night from Goose Bay, Labrador. Ames Research Laboratory scientists following in a tracking plane plan to release the capsules elactronically Saturday night after about 54 hours of night. They expect the capsules to drift to earth by parachute somewhere between Edmonton, and Prince Albert, Sask.

A spokesman reported the balloon had risen to 85.000 feet two hours after its launch and was to catch prevailing winds at that altitude to begin its westward drift. The balloon is kept at an average altitude of 128,000 feet during the day, but descends to about 112,000 feet during the night. In the capsules besides the ani- mals are instruments, tissue culture and gelatin emulsion packs to measure radiation, frequency, size and intensity of cosmic rays. The first balloon was in the air 39 hours from July 14 to 16, and the second 51 hours from Aug. 1-3.

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration is directing the tests. Berliners Evicted BERLIN (AP) Residents of East Berlin homes along the wall in Wedding, a French sector area, were evicted from their homes Thursday. Such evictions usually mean Communist authorities want to prevent the houses being used for escapes to the West.
