Shupin's daughter, Adrienne, goes to Piedmont High and has been trying to interest her English teacher, Alton Sprague, in the willowy Miss Sox. Sprague needed a blind date like he needed a hole in the head and passed off Adrienne's matchmaking as childish fancy until about a month ago when Adrienne showed up with a family gathering photo that included Nancy Sox. The English teacher liked the picture.

Adrienne arranged a date and no matter that Nancy Sox is six, feet tall. Sprague flipped and three weeks later he and Nancy were engaged. Sprague is six feet six. 0 0 0 The two San Leandro housewives, out shopping for Two new silhouettes will start rising this summer to join the increasing skyline of apartment buildings around Lake Merritt. One will be at 1200 Lakeshore just east of the lake and will occupy a site cleared several years ago in anticipation of the project.

The other will be at 1555 Oak adjacent to the Scottish Rite auditorium. It will rise 16 stories and contain 81 living units of which 54 will be split-level with views of both the lake and the San Francisco skyline. A similar view will be offered by the 1200 Lakeshore project which will reach 24 stories, topped by a roof garden and social hall. It will have 173 units ranging from one to three bedrooms, each with at least one bath for each bedroom. A second roof garden of three-quarter acre size will be at the rear at the third floor level.

Rent will range from $150 to $450 a month, according to Rob ert R. Walker, president of 1200 Lakeshore, Inc. Walker said the building will be "truly luxurious" with 24-hour doorman service, piped-in music in its three elevators, FAST-GROWING 24-STORY APARTMENT BLDG.

Scientists Discover Two New Basic Particles BILL FISET corridors and jointly-used fa- cilities; radiant heat, and seven foot wide balconies, some as long as 65 feet.

Two teams of U.C. scientists headed by Drs.

Gerson Gold-haber and' Donald H. Miller are responsible for the latest discoveries. They worked at the Brookha-ven, and U.C. bubble chambers. Dr.

Miller and his group completed the research with tests in the 72-inch hydro Berkeley's $1 Million 'Gateway' BERKELEY The city will have a "million-dollar gateway" within three years if plans for improvement and beautification of Vh mile-long University Ave. are approved by city officials. Details of the $972,900 project, largest ever planned for one street in the city's history, were announced today by City Man ager John who suggested the job be divided into two phases, west of the Freeway and east of Sixth St. to the U.C. Campus.

From Sixth St. to Oxford St. the street would be widened to 80 feet, providing two moving traffic lanes in each direction separated by a landscaped 16-foot center island. There would be parallel parking on both sides of the tree-lined street. Also recommended is a new street lighting system on "davit" type poles and underground-ing of all utilities.

10-FOOT SIDEWALKS Where necessary, left turn lanes would require narrowing the median island to a five foot width. Sidewalks would be 10 feet in width. The city manager also suggested an intensive program to encourage private property owners to improve the appearance of their land and buildings. West of the Freeway the road would be separated by a 40-foot median strip. Two 24-foot road ways would allow two lanes of traffic both east and west.

Street lighting would be installed on each side and the center strip landscaped in a manner that would compliment that proposed for the new Marina. Phillips recommended that this segment of the project be constructed in the spring and summer of 1965 and that landscaping be completed in the fall of 1965, all at a cost of $190,600. SECOND PHASE The second phase, from Sixth St. to Oxford is scheduled for the 1965-66 and 1966-67 fiscal years at a cost of $782,300. Phillips emphasized in his re port that improvements planned west of the Freeway should be completed before the Marina is opened in 1966 and that improvements east of the Freeway be finished well in advance of the university's Centennial in 1968.

The plan will go before the Planning Commission for a public hearing on June 17. Subsequently it will be considered by the Civic Art Commission and the Recreation Commission. Final authorization is the responsibility of the City Council. Members of the Berkeley Chamber of Commerce and the Junior Chamber of Commerce plan to circulate petitions among merchants and property owners on University Ave. Saturday urging they lend support to the plan.

Highway Game Is Fatal for Cyclist general contractor The Oak St. project will total $3 million and feature unique split-level units having frontage on both sides of the building.

The particles, which exist for only very short fractions of a second, are created when the protons are hit by the very high energy beams. The protons are particles which rest in the nuclei of atoms. The discoveries, a spokesman for the Lawrence Laboratory said, advance nuclear science a bit further toward knowledge about the fundamental particles which make up the world. misjudged his distance and cut too closely.

Electroliers are also placed in the arena's entrance, area, just off Skyline Boulevard, and in both a public parking area and a horseshoe shaped concession stand. Conrad J.

Zettel was named study director for the newly formed San Francisco Bay Area Transportation Study Commission today, and immediately was handed a big chore.

He was ordered to prepare a comprehensive master plan before July 1, 1965, covering the future of highway, freeway and rapid transit transportation in nine Bay Area counties. The assignment has an $80 million annual price tag on it. Unless the plan is in workable shape by the deadline, the Commission and the area it represents stands to lose that amount yearly in federal highway construction funds under a U.S. Commerce Department "no plan, no money" proviso.

For Tribune Delivery Service Phon by 7 p.m. daily, 12 noon Sunday Oakland main office 13th Franklin Srt. 273-2323 old electric car converted into an advertising sound truck, was out with campaign posters for a candidate for judge the other day and drove by a friend's home in Oakland and the friend was out painting his house. The friend is as bald as they come, so Johnny tuned up his loudspeaker and cracked: "My candidate doesn't need votes from bald men. He'd prefer they stay home out of the bright sun.

Only men with hair should get out and vote." The friend, from his painting scaffold, chuckled and waved, and as Johnny started off again he spotted a Cadillac sedan at a complete stop, a' bald man behind the wheel staring in apoplectic fury. And sure enough, that evening the candidate for judge Zook Sutton got a phone call at home from an angry citizen who declared: "I don't know what kind of campaign you're running, or what kind of attack you intend on bald-headed men, but you've certainly lost my vote, and my brother-in-law's, and my wife's." Well, any guy with a bald wife has no sense of humor, anyway. oooo Out in Berkeley a panel of prospective jurors was being questioned in Judge Rupert Crittenden's court and each was asked if he had anything on his mind to prevent his giving the case full and undivided attention.

What was the problem? Well, she'd parked in a one-hour time zone and already had been there 90 minutes. Judge Crittenden coughed and said he thought he could alleviate her worry on that score.
