Off. Dave's Prize Now $2520 BY DAVE DOLLAR Well, football season is almost gone and nobody scored on old Dave. Again last week, my GOLDline defense was 3 too tough to crack and nobody could score that $2400 touchdown. So, I'm going to switch to basketball and see if you can score more points. I would just love to stuff about $2520 in your basket.

All you have to do to get $2520 flashing on your scoreboard is to work the cashword correctly. This week's puzzle is on page 16 and it's a real easy one. Last week several of you came mighty close to winning the big prize but fell a little short. So I've fixed up a real easy puzzle for you to work. Check those words you missed last week and don't make the same kind of mistake twice.

Remember, all it takes to score is a little paper, a pencil and a little knowledge. 'A REAL DREAM' -New 102-foot control tower at Municipal Airport, dwarfing Mayor Boutwell and city council members on speaker's stand, was called "a real dream" by an FAA official at dedication ceremonies yesterday, New Air Control Tower Dedicated BY SID GOLDSTEIN The new control tower for traffic was dedicated yesterday ing it as "the sure evidence of The mayor and all nine at Municipal Airport, along with tives of the Federal Agency, A crowd estimated at some 1200 filed through the new sevenstory tower through the afternoon and into the night. "Here is the sure evidence of progress," said Mayor Boutwell. "Any objective study of conditions as they are today," he said, "will convince anyone who still needs to be convinced that tremendous strides are being taken. "Only a few of the city's accomplishments in recent months are as spectacular and beautiful as the structure we dedicate today.

But, in whatever area they lie, they speak for themselves." Plans for the facility were gun under old city commission before the mayor and council took office in a government change last year. On a permanent plaque inside tower are inscribed the names of Boutwell and the nine councilmen under whose administration the structure was dedi-, cated. The tower was built for 15 High Schools Disaccredited LOUISVILLE, Nov. 29 (P -The 15 public high schools in Jacksonville, and surroundof accreditation tonight by the ing Duval County, were stripped Southern Association of Colleges and Schools. It was the first time the association had disaccredited so many schools in one system.

Main reason for the action, taken at the opening of the association's annual meeting, was that not enough tax money was provided for the schools, officials said. The schools, in turn; cannot provide an adequate education for the children, they said. The system had been warned it would be disaccredited unless more local tax money was obtained. Saigon Mob Is Scattered By Bayonets Funeral Procession Used As Protest By Communists BY RAY F. HERNDON SAIGON, Nov.

20 Hundreds of government paratroops with fixed bayonets today broke up a menlacing funeral procession that martial law authorities said was instigated by the Communists. Two paratroopers were wounded in mysterious explosions, apparently of homemade grenades. At least 89 demonstrators were reported arrested after the funeral march by some 3000 persons degenerated into anti-government political demonstrations. The funeral was for 15-yearold Le Van Ngoc who, his fellow students claimed, was shot to death by police Wednesday when they tried to break up anti-gov. ernment riots swirling around the gates of the Nationalist Buddhist Center in the northwestern section of Saigon.

A small band of Saigon students, had planned the funeral procession which started along a route from the Buddhist center. At one point the marchers staged a 15-minute sitdown protest in front of the residence of Deputy U. S. Ambassador U. Alexis Johnson.

Plane Shot Down While the paratroopers acted, a S. military spokesman anI nounced that Communist Viet Cong guerrillas shot down an American piloted sky raider fighter-bomber today in South Viet Nam's Vinh Binh Province. The spokesman said the U. S. pilot and his Vietnamese cOpilot managed to crash-land their aircraft on an airstrip 80 miles south of Saigon.

Both escaped injury. In Saigon, the potentially plosive Buddhist leadership ended in chaos when several paratroopers waded into the ranks of the "mourners" with fixed bayonets. None of the marchers in the procession was seriously injured but two paratroopers were hurt when three explosions, believed to have by homemade grenades rocked the street where the paratroopers were rounding up ringleaders of the group. The arrested youths were led to waiting trucks and driven to the headquarters of the national police across town.

WHITING LEOPOLDVILLE, the Congo (AP)-Belgian paratroopers pulled out of Congo today after rescuing 1700 white hostages from Congolese rebels. But fears were expressed here for safety of 500 or more foreigners still in rebel territory.

Diplomatic sources in Leopoldville said one more air drop of the Belgians had been planned -most likely at Bunia where several hundred foreigners are believed trapped. There was no explanation from these sources (les to why the drop was not carried out. In a note today to the Soviet a Soviet charge of aggression Belgian Foreign Minister Paul-Henri Spaak said the fact that the evidence that hade Belgium had no paratroopers pulled out was desire to reconquer its former Congo territory, as the Russians had charged. At least 500 and possibly as many as 1000 whites still are in rebel areas. They range from groups of several hundred in Bunia to single missionaries or plantation managers far from any important communities.

Intense Heat Balks Effort At Rescue Cause Of Blaze Undetermined, Officers Say BY JAMES MICHELS An eight-month old boy and his grandmother died yesterday afternoon in a fire which gutted a one-story house at 3816 42nd-av, Inglenook. Mrs. Sarah B.

Monaghan, 47, of 3816 42nd-av, was baby sitting for her grandson, William Robert Managhan. The baby was the son of Mr. and Mrs. David Monaghan, 725 Jackson-blvd, Tarrant City. The parents apparently had brought the baby to 3816 42ndav, address, and then left.

One of the neighbors saw smoke coming from the back of the house, and put in a hurried call to the Fire Dept. One young man took a garden hose and tried to fight his way into the house to combat the blaze. But all attempts to enter the house failed because of the intense heat and flames, police said. Chief Neal Gallant of the Birmingham Fire Department, said the cause of the fire was unknown, but it had started either in or on the couch in the front room of the house. The boy's grandfather, Eldridge D.

Monaghan, and his parents, Mr. and Mrs. David Monaghan, were out on a hunting trip when the accident took place. They reutrned about 20 minutes after the fire department and police arrived on the scene, police said. Birmingham Fire Dept.

Rowell has charged that the Mayor-Council government is only carrying out projects started by the former commissioners, and that the city was $390,000 in on Oct. 1, due to expenditures by the Mayor-Council government. On the other hand, the mayorcouncil group has stressed that the present system has established fiscal responsibility and put the city in the black after the commission had gotten the city heavily in debt. It has also said that confidence in the business community coupled with a prospering city sound reason for keeping the present form.
