The debris may have been formed eons ago during some cataclysmic lunar event. Strange reverberations lasted minutes after the Apollo 12 lunar lander was deliberately crashed to produce a moonquake. Seismic devices left by the astronauts detected the reverberations and radioed them to earth.

For some unknown reason. the sceintific theorists say, energy from the crash might have City Treasurer To Undergo Surgery City Treasurer W.

continued from page one CODE the existing housing code wasn't being enforced, saying, in effect, he doubted the need for new code and ability to enforce it if the old one wasn't enforced. Officials denied any laxity in enforcement of the old code, however. Another major objection was to the provision that got down to the nitty-gritting of requiring windows and floors to be kept clean. Another was to the provision, covering licenses and inspections, which left a decision about the character of an applicant for such a license up to the inspector. SOME OF THE comments went like this.

"It smacks of dictatorship "I can't see a law telling people how to live in their own house "You're telling us we can't live in our own house if we can't afford to make repairs "It puts too many restrictions on ctizens "We need a code to live by, but we need one we can live with "It's spreading the building inspector's authority too far "I think it would be a good idea if we got some action on the present code before we get a new code And on it went.

A similar rubble layer on earth would have dampened the seismic energy, said Dr. Gary Latham of the Lamont Geological observatory. "Our feeling now is we're going to have to reassess our understanding of the manner in which waves are damped and to study the way in which the material affects this kind of thing," he said.

Perhaps the airlessness of the moon has something to do with it, Latham said. Because of the vacuum on the moon, he explained, lunar material has no gases or fluids trapped in it as earth does, and this might dramati cally alter the way seismic energy behaves. A layer of rocky debris sandwiched between two hard layers that efficiently reflect seismic waves is alien to earth geology. "I can't in my experience think of a place where we would find a solid over a thick rubble layer underlain by another solid material," Latham said. "And if we did, we certainly wouldn't see a seismic signal like that we saw on the moon." continued from page one ASTRONAUTS aircraft and flown directly to Ellington, where they are due at 6:40 a.m.

Saturday. At the lunar laboratory, the astronauts, doctor and technician will move to more spacious quarantine quarters. Making Apollo 12's second bull's eye landing in a week, the three astronauts safely parachuted to tropic Pacific waters Monday afternoon, landing just 3.1 miles from the recovery ship and in full view of television cameras which beamed the event to millions of viewers. They were hoisted aboard helicopter and were on the deck of the carrier an hour later, saluting smartly as they walked into the trailer. As part of the quarantine precautions, their faces were covered with masks that filtered the breath they exhaled.

Minutes later, Nixon tele phoned from White House to congratulate the astronauts on the accomplishment, tell them of their promotions and invite them to dine at the White House sometime after their quarantine ends. Back at MSC, site of Apollo Mission Control, project offi cials hailed Apollo 12's success and said America's next manto-the-moon mission, Apollo 13, probably would blast off March 12 to try for a bull's-eye landing to the shallow crater Fra Mauro, slightly more than 100 miles southeast of where Conrad and Bean touched down. By making a bull's-eye landling just 20 feet from the rim of a crater in which Surveyor 3 is located, the Apollo 12 crew apparently has cleared the way for Apollo 13 astronauts James A.

The decision will be made after officials look at close up photos of the site taken from lunar orbit by Apollo 12, he said.

Man Killed In Holdup Attempt Is Identified EASTON, Md. (AP) A man shot to death in a holdup attempt at the Holiday Inn here has been tentatively identified as Donald Jones, about 25, of Washington, D.

C. John C. North II, state's attorney for Talbot County, said alleged accomplices from Philadelphia, Queen, 25, and Howard D. Queen II, 32, were released on $15,000 bond each. North said no date has been set for a preliminary hearing in the holdup attempt early Saturday.

The Philadelphia men, both cousins of Jones, and two other suspects were charged with armed robbery. Still being held in the Talbot County Jail were Charles R. West, 23, of Washington, and Charles H. Deshields, 24, of Easton and Washington. State police, acting on an undisclosed tip, had staked out the Holiday Inn and allegedly caught West and Jones in the motel office, where $200 was in the cash register.

Detective Sgt. E. C. Myers said the other three men were caught minutes later outside. Refuge Check Is Presented To Accomack CHINCOTEAGUE A 196.82 check from the Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge has been presented to Accomack County.

The check is the money earmarked last week for use for "recreational facilities" in the county's school system. Chincoteague Elementary School parents have asked for $1,500 of it to go toward establishing an asphalt basket ball and athletic court at that school. Chincoteague Supervisor Paul B. Merrit received the check from J. C.

Appel, Chincoteague Refuge "The manager, Mr. Appel said, money, which represents 25 per cent of the fiscal year 1969 revenues collected by the refuge, was presented to the Accomack County Board of When the supervisors were asked for the $1,500 by Chincoteague PTA members they side-stepped and directed the entire $9,000 plus check be turned over to the school board for use as the board saw best. Robert Nock, who headed the Chincoteague PTA group, said $1,500 of the $3,000 proposed court had been raised publicly on the island. He was asked by the supervisors to approach the school board for the $1,500, after the supervisors had voted to turn over the refuge check to the school board for recreation. Several of the supervisors had expressed opinions that other elementary schools in the county might need funds for recreational development, as well as Chincoteague.

Meadlo said he then began to fire and killed 10 to 15 men, women and children. Meadlo said the next morning he received what he considers to be God's punishment for his actions when he stepped on a mine and lost one of his legs.

Calley's attorney, George W. Latimer, reacted by television appearance by commenting "I don't know anything about his credibility or the circumstances of the interview." Latimer, in Salt Lake City, Utah, added: "We're going to have a dozen different versions. Some of the statements have been highly inflammatory and have had a tremendous impact on the public." Meanwhile, Sens. Charles H. Percy, and Stephen Young, Ohio, called for congressional investigations of the incident.

Senate Democratic Leader Mike Mansfield of Montana agreed there would have to be a government inquiry be cause "there's been so much smoke," but he said it should not come until after the Calley court martial is over. continued from page one POLLUTION bill an industrial polluter would pay a fee based on the demand placed on water used in disposing of waste products and the toxic content of the waste. "Since the charges would be developed on a per-pound basis, there would be a direct incentive for polluters to reduce waste production in order that a major part of the charge would be eliminated," he said. The user fee system would produce an estimated $1.5 billion in the first year of operation, Proxmire said. Proxmire said similar plans are in operation in Canada and Europe and have been notably successful in stemming pollution.
