Milk Board Kickbacks PITTSBURGH (UPI) The Milk Control Commission, apparently embarasssd by recent disclosures of being sof on kickbacks to milk dealers, has reaffirmed its stand that it regards such practices as illegal. The ccmnvssion Thursday issued a statement at a hearing called to investigate unlawful rebate practices.

"So that it may be crystal clear to everyone, this commission reaffirmed what has always been their firm policy, AUNT HET By ROBERT QUILLEN Kate vows she's dietin'; but her's is the practice o' denyin' herself certain favorite desserts, except now and then, when she thinks nobody is looking. fo Acf In Choral Event Richard Dunston (above), son of Mr. and Mrs. J. R.

Dunston, 1313 Ridge Boulevard, a senior at Dunbar Township High School, will namely, that -such practices sing first tenor the are in violation of the (Milk 6 Control) act," the statement said. The statement was signed by Commission Chairman J. Lin Commissioner Joab G. Emerson Work. Huber and Mahood the third commissioner, was not present at the hearing.

Two memoranda dug out of the commission files were disclosed two weeks ago in Harrisburg. One memorandum was from the late Glenn R. Span gler, then s-seretary of the commission, to William Britner, then supervisor in the Erie market area. Spangler, replying to Briner's query, wrote that a rebate would not be illegal if it had been made voluntarily and not under duress. The memoranda were introduced by Deputy Atty.

Gen Judson E. Ruch who is conducting the investigation for the state Justice Department. Deepening the commission's discomfiture was the testimony of an official of the Erie-Crawford Cooperative that two former commissioners. Simon Uhl and John A. Smith had knowledge of rebates being paid dealers but failed to act.

More testimony regarding kickbacks paid to Pittsburgh area dealers by milk producers was presented Thursday. Jacob H. Feagles an officer of the Dairymen's League Cooperative Association, Rochester, N.Y., listed rebates totaling about $1 million which were paid Pittsburgh area dealers between 1957 and 1961. Feagles said the rebates were paid to the Beverly Farms, Keystone Dairy and Carl Cpl- teryahn Dairy, on sales of milk supplied from a plant at Union City, Erie County. He said no rebates were paid after the cooperative began to supply Pittsburgh dealers in 1951 from a new plant in Clymer, N.Y.

From that time on, he said, dealers paid New York prices which were lower than Pennsylvania prices established chorus festival to be held at Trinity High School, Washington, tonight and Saturday. He previously sang in the western district chorus festival held at Connellsville Joint Senior High School February 25, 26 and 27, where as a result of auditioning, he was chosen to participate in the regional chorus. This is the highest honor a public school voice student can achieve in Pennsylvania. The district and regional choruses are sponsored by the Pennsylvania Music Educators Association to afford opportunities to gifted students to advance musical training and experience. Richard plans to enter Otterbein College in the fall to major in music education.

by the commission. Hcmer H. Martz, general manager of the Dairymen's Cooperative Sales Association, testified no rebates were paid by his firm which has 4,500 farmer members in Pennsylvania, Ohio and West Virginia. However, Martz said his firm was able to meet competition at below state established prices by selling Ohio milk to Pennsylvania Ohio prices. Martz said consumers at interstate shipment of milk are not subject to milk commission control or pricing orders.

He said by mixing Pennsylvania milk with Ohio milk the product was removed from state control. The hearing was recessed until 10 a.m. next.Tuesday. TWO BIRTHS IN HOSPITAL Two babies--a boy and a girl -were born at Connellsville State General Hospital. to Mr.

(UPI) -A tractor trailer rolled out of control down a steep 10-block hill Thursday night, sideswiping autos and shearing utility poles before ramming to a halt into two houses at an intersection.

The driver was killed and 16 persons were injured. The operator of the rig was identified as Eugene Sesky, 35, Scranton. He was decapitated. Eyewitnesses said he leaned out of the cab of his banana- laden rig and shouted warnings to motorists and pedestrians in his path. Police theorized that the brakes on the tractor-trailer failed while Sesky was enroute from Newark, N.J., to a food chain warehouse here.

Surviving is an aunt, Mrs. Charlotte Riley of Mount Pleas- Uneasy Speculation The official announcement came 4 hours and 9 minutes after unofficial sources informed UPI of the safe landing. But the lack of an oficial announcement had prompted uneasiness and brought speculation something might have happened.

The time the landing indicated the Russians had orbited the earth 16 or 17 times. Soviet cosmonauts had done this before but this flight made history when Leonov crawled through an air chamber to the outside of the craft and returned safely. He clung to a handrail for about 10 minutes, testing the effects of the --459 degree temperature and the effect of weightlessness on his well- bing. Then, dangling at the end of a 16-foot lifeline, he performed somersaults and other maneuvers to demonstrate his control. Russians hailed the move as demonstration of greater tilings to come--the building of a platform in space, the repair of spacecraft damaged by meteorites, and the linking up of two spacecraft while orbiting the earth.
