N'i new business zoning should be considered in the present city, but is some room, he added, for more high-type commercial enterprises outside of the present city. Kincaid pointed out that in some cases, the rezoning of properties will undoubtedly cause criticism and dispute, but he voiced hope it would be kept to a minimum. The plan, he declared, must be kept flexible. The future, he said holds a more intensive apartment development for San Mateo.

boosting the purchasing power at the downtown district and the Hillsdale shopping center as well as others. Kincaid anticipated some high-rise apartment projects will locate around the College Heights district, in the western hillside. In the hillside area, Kincaid repeatedly pointed to the importance of preserving the natural beauty of the countryside by the provision of parks, construction of retention dams to help control the storm water for the protection of the city. The dams, probably earth fill, he said, would be built in ravines now collecting storm water that flows into San Mateo creek and Laurel creek. These could become a part of the city or county park system.

Illustrated Kincaid's talk was illustrated with color slides of aerial scenes, taken during an airplane trip over the city during which David D. Bchannon Jr. was the pilot. San Mateo, the planning director emphasized, has no blighted direct demonstration of excellent governmental efficiently and integrity on the part of its city council, the planning commission, the city manager, and everyone of his departments. Never have I seen local government in the hands of men and women so well qualified, or so dedicated to their public responsibility." Master-of-ceremonies for the occasion was Developer David D.

Introductions were made by George Gaiigler, acting as president for the chamber in the absence of' Ken Van Gundy. City a i Commission Chairman Cecil Wells who was the moderator noted that the general or master plan will "require wise counselling and unselfish interest on the part of many groups and individuals." During the question and answer period, Kincaid was asked about the need for a $10,000 expenditure in the budget for an economic stucty of the community. Ho said it is as important to the master plan as is an economic study of a community prior to the development of a shopping center, and he would be handicapped in guiding land uses without it. A proposal to extend San Mateo drive through park drew a positive "No" from the director.

Other questions dealt with Brewer Island's possible residential development, the tax advantages to the community of more apartment houses, and prospect of zoning for "mobile homes."

The sturdy little space pioneers rode- in a 160 pound, sealed and sound-proofed "life capsule" with enough food and air to last four days. Their equipment included a "mouse-sized" oxygen bottle. They were described as coming an especially "happy, healthy breed." "They even looked happy," said William H.

Godel, director of policy and planning for the advanced research agency (ARPA). Air force cargo planes were set to try an aerial pickup of the mouse payload 700 miles northwest of Hawaii if it parachutes from space.

FBI agents said Pearce, 25, admitted the holdup he reported March 31 was a hoax, but he denied he had taken the $2050 missing from his cage. Pearce was fired from the job he held for two years and arraigned yesterday on a federal complaint charging him with filing false information and withholding material facts from the FP.I. A spokesman for the U. S. attorney's office said agents worked for weeks on the assumption Pearce had been robbed of 20 hundred dollar bills by 3 well-dressed man in his late '40s.

However, they became suspicious of the 25 persons in the bank at the time of the alleged holdup remembered seeing a man fitting the description given by the teller. When it was found that Pearce had quietly opened an account, depositing $1,000, agents questioned his story. At his arraignment a steadfastly denied taking the money. He said he ha'd been saving money in a fruit jar at home ai.d decided to put it into the bank. PROGRESS AT GENEVA DEMANDED FOR SUMMIT (Continued from Page 1) bor legislation.

BENEFITS Eisenhower said he signed a bill recently to increase pension and unemployment benefits of railroad workers because after very careful study he concluded that it was a well balanced measure. But as for extending more liberal unemployment benefits to all other workers, the President made it clear he still feels that is a job which the states should handle primrily. REPUBLICANS It should come as news to no one, Eisenhower said, that he is concerned about the future of the Republican party. He has been concerned for the last six years, he added. He made that statement when questioned about his discussion Tuesday with GOP congressional leaders regarding a poll reporting the Republican party on the decline.

Eisenhower said the 1956 election results, which gave the Republicans the White House for another four years and the Democrats control of Congress, underscored need for careful study of the situation. Such study, is now being made, he saio, and he hopes it will result in improvement of the picture. Oxford Won't Bury Latin as Being Passe OXFORD, England (AP) The dons of Oxford University changed their minds Tuesday night about burying Latin as a dead language. By 301 votes to 282 they decided students must have a basic knowledge of Latin to enroll at the university. The senior members of the teaching faculty reversed their decision a month ago to make knowledge 'of Caesar's language an optional entrance requirement, as Greek, German and Russian are'.

The dons senior members of the teaching faculty packed into Oxford's 17th century Sheldon- ian Theater for the debate. A woman fellow of St. Hilda's College, Helen Gardner, probably won the day for Latin. "The decline of Latin schools here, and its virtual disappearance in is one cause of a growing incompetence in the writing of our English," she said. She urged that Oxford wait and see what happens at Cambridge, which voted out Latin two weeks ago.

Latin will continue to be compulsory, at least until a committee considering the whole matter of entrance requirements reports.

Just then her car stalled and the warning bells began to ring. The gates started to come down. Spectators began shouting. Mrs. Gaddis said she tried to start the car three times to no avail, then jumped out, 'seizing Kurt.

Stories of witnesses varied. Some said the mother threw the boy out of harm's way. When she reached back for the baby, the impact occurred. Engineer Fred J. Kern, 53, of San Francisco, told police he rounded the curve in the tracks, northbound pulling a long freight, when he saw the car.

He pulled the whistle frantically. Kern said he was going between 30 and 35 miles an hour. The engine halted in front of the Bay Meadows racetrack, while the last freight car was south of Thirty- seventh avenue. An eye-witness, Kenneth Kister of 420 Stephen road, San Mateo, wfio works at the Hillsdale and Pacific boulevard gas sta- tion, said he looked up when he heard the warning train whistle blowing. He saw Mrs.

Gaddis r.s she leaped from the' auto and said she fell to her knees, but managed to get Kevin out of the way. Kistler said he saw the car literally cartwheel. Just prior to the impact a truck driver in line yelled and motioned to Mrs. Gaddis to jump. San Bruno Patrolman Art Brittain on the other side of the tracks said when the train finally stopped spectators were on their hands and knees looking under it to see what had happened.

Traffic was jammed for blocks 01: both sides of the intersection, often termed the worst in the city. The train engineer, visibly shaken, reached the scene with others to find the baby lying on the ground under the wreckage. At the hospital, attendants said the heroic young mother maintained her composure. Kevin, the other boy, was treated for multiple contusions. Mrs.

Gaddis, whispered, "I'll have another baby." Graduation The Natural Look Here's the important high school and university line for young men.
