Out in the Desert, Where the Bombs Rumble would halt testing if America did so unilaterally. "I think an examination of the record would show otherwise," Miller said. "I think a lot of people think with their hearts and not their heads.

They would be well-advised to do a little reading of history." Steve Rohl, a local spokesman for the anti-nuclear Greenpeace organization, has led many demonstrations at NTS. He believes the U.S., not Russia, is the problem in achieving a nuclear freeze. "The Soviets have capitulated on so many points, and the hangup is an intransigent Republican administration," Rohl said in a recent interview. Rohl called Reagan "a failure when it comes to arms control. He has failed to read the con science of America.

I know the Soviets desire a comprehensive test ban treaty." Rohl said the Russian resumption of testing in 1961 was in response to French tests and had nothing to do with the US. program. Miller maintains continued nuclear testing is necessary "if nuclear weapons are going to be a part of your arsenal. You have to make sure they're going to work. The only way you can do that is to periodically take one from stockpile and test it" "I don't think nuclear weapons are ever going to go away," he added.

"You may have controls but I don't think any nation is going to give them up. Nuclear weapons are a fact of life and they re going to remain a fact of life." testing under President Kennedy and conducted eight low-yield underground tests during the remainder of 1961 in a frantic game of catch-up. The AEC charged the Soviets with "abruptly and cynically" breaking the moratorium initiated by Eisenhower three years earlier and said the Russian series had "required extensive preparation during the negotiations for a test ban." "Polls show a vast majority of Americans want a nuclear freeze, but they want a bilateral agreement that can be verified by all parties," Dave Miller, a DOE spokesman in Las Vegas, said in a recent interview. "All administrations dating back to President Truman have sought such a verifiable ban." He questioned whether Russia By Robert Macy Associated Press LAS VEGAS, been more than three decades since Las Vegans danced to the "Atomic Boogie," joked about being "atomized" and offered champagne toasts to mushroom clouds peeling off the desolate desert floor 65 miles away. Gone are the days when townspeople would arise at dawn to watch for the telltale flash in skies to the northwest or speculate on the cargo of B-'J9s lumbering toward what was then called the Government Proving Ground.

The fireballs that once ignited Nevada skies are now contained 2,000 feet in the belly of the desert and nuclear blasts with 10 times the punch of the Hiroshima-Nagasaki bombs are Page 8 news. America was at war in 'Korea and Sen. Joe McCarthy was Generating an anti-Communist fervor when President Truman tabbed a 640-square-mile expanse of Nevada desert for the nation's continental nuclear test site. The first pre-dawn blast Jan. 27, 1951 set off burglar alarms through the town of 35,000, knocked doors off hinges and stampeded horses.

Some feared the Russians had blown up Boulder Dam. Truman envisioned less than half a dozen Nevada tests. The 625th announced test was conducted Aug. 2. Today an eerie sophistication prevails at the Nevada Test Site and an adjoining super secret base dubbed Area 51 where America is involved in exotic "Star Wars" research.

This city that was built on the game of chance and matured as a partner in the nuclear arms race today offers an interesting paradox in the nuclear freeze movement. Some of its 500,000 residents picket NTS sporadically while their neighbors stand on street corners in the pre-dawn hours, waiting for buses that whisk them along U.S. 95 to work at the mountain-ringed desert site. Some 7,000 residents work at NTS and support facilities in Las Vegas, making the test program one of Southern Nevada's largest employers. Talk about a test freeze and locals are likely to bring up the last moratorium, when President Eisenhower halted testing for three years beginning in late 1958.

While talking test ban, the Russians used the period to prepare for the largest series of tests in history, culminating in the detonation of a 58 megaton hydrogen bomb in October 1961. That device had the explosive punch of 58 million tons of TNT 4,400 times the force of the bomb that destroyed Hiroshima. Department of Energy records indicate the largest bomb exploded by the United States was a 15 megaton device in the Pacific in February of 1954. According to the Atomic Energy Commission, the predecessor to the DOE as director of the nation's nuclear program, the Soviet Union conducted 50 nuclear tests from September through December of 1961, with a total explosive yield of 120 megatons.

YOUR FAN IN STEUBENVILLE. OHIO DEAR FAN: I agree, and here it is: DEAR ABBY: I am 18 and in a pack of trouble. I was arrested for burglary and other charges. This was not my first time, so I am locked up in Cambridge, awaiting trial. I would like to express some of the things I have learned in the 121 days I have been here.

One is that you should listen to your parents, as they will never steer you wrong. I never got along too good with my dad. Every time he tried to talk to me we got into a heated argument, but now I realize if I had listened to him, I wouldn't be here. I would also like to tell kids, don't quit school to go out and make money. I did, and look here I ended up.

Also, there are no shortcuts. A guy needs all the education he ran get. And another thing. Don't blame your mistakes on other people. My friends showed me how to break the law, but I am the one who now must take full responsibility for my own actions.

I will probably get sent up to St. Cloud's, but thanks, Abby, for letting me say this. Also, I want to thank Sheriff Lrickson. He is a swell guy. He let me use his typewriter to write to you.

Sincerely, "THE CAMBRIDGE BUM" DEAR SIR: You're young yet, so don't go calling yourself a "bum." You can pay your debt and still amount to something if yon really want to. I talked' to Sheriff Ertek-son, and he told me yon had already been sent to St Cloud. He said he certainly hoped yon would straighten yourself out because ou had a lot of good in you, in addition to being exceptionally smart I believe him. I wish you lurk. DEAR ABBY: I am desperate.
