McCarthy's defense strategy appeared likely today to determine how many witnesses will be called by a special senate committee assigned to weigh censure charges against the Wisconsin Republican.

The committee's public hearings, now scheduled to start Aug. 31, will be based at the outset of five classes of charges. Indications are the six-member group plans to take testimony from relatively few witnesses. However, Chairman Watkins made clear that the committee was keeping a free hand' to expand the number of charges it will inquire into and the witnesses it will call. "We're pot going to close the door," Watkins said.

So far McCarthy has not indicated publicly what tack his defense will take. In announcing yesterday that the committee had decided to conduct hearings initially on five categories of charges, Watkins said they seemed to be "the most important'' of 46 some of them overlapping which were submitted by Sens. Flanders (R-Vt), Fulbright (D-Ark) and Morse (Ind-Ore). ATTACKS Continued From, Page One ed to give a statement without the advise of counsel.

25 (AP) Two Norwegian woman claim they not only had a close look at a flying saucer, they talked to its "dark-skinned, long-haired" pilot. Skeptical police have launched an investigation. The two women, Mrs. Aasta Sol-vang and her sister Edit Jacobsen, said the saucerman popped out at them from behind some bushes last Friday near Mofjell, in northern Norway. Their story was published yester day by the local paper Nordlands Folkeblaci.

This was the sisters account: "We 'vere picking berries when suddenly a dark man with long hair but otherwise looking very much like an ordinary human beingcame out from behind some bushes. "We were frightened at first, but the man appeared very friendly, and stepped toward us." One of them addressed him in English, French, German, and Norwegian. "He didn't seem to understand a word." The stranger then attempted to communicate by drawing "circles and what looked like pictures of heavenly bodies" on a piece of paper. The stranger finally led them to his craft, which looked like two deep saucers sandwiched to about 15 feet across. The mystery man opened a hatch and crawled into th disc.

Moments later the craft "rose from the ground and began rotating, first slowly, then increasingly faster." Then, suddenly, it disappeared at an "incredible speed."

STORtL Isaac Feinstein, sent to this country by the international Farm Youth Exchange to study the latest farming methods so that he can teach them to his own people in the State of Israel, asserts he learned more about agriculture during the past three weeks in Berrien county than he did in all of the six months he has been touring the United States. During his Berrien "county stay he spent a week each on the Louis Dunaetz, Sam Braudo, and Ben Rosenberg farms. Last Monday he told about his experiences on WHFB in a tape recorded interview with Ed Backus.

Feinstein got a big thrill last Sat' urday morning after making the recording, when he was whisked from the radio station to the twin cities airport to meet Gov. G. Men nen Williams as he stepped off a plane. Williams was here to attend the Coloma Gladioli Festival. Fein stein was surprised to be greeted by Michigan's governor with "Sho lem Alechim," as the two clasped hands.

This is Jewish for "peace be with you." the official "hello" and "goodbye" in Israel. The visiting student recalled that Williams was the first governor in the United States to sign the First Anniversary book of the State of Israel. This book, along with the pen used to sign it, have been plac ed in the archives or Israel. Feinstein also enjoyed meeting the twin city mayors, F. Joseph Flaugh, of Benton Harbr, and Wal do V.

Tiscornia, of St. Joseph. Feinstein has gone to Orlando, to devote a few days to studying agricultural methods before going to Washington, D. to give his final report on his activi ties in America.
