News; Wonder City Wonderful City reporters aloft. Thousands of FCC observers and civil defense personnel took part in the test, spokesmen said. The exact number of Air Force planes was not disclosed. 1,300 Stations Involved Cooperating in the test on a voluntary basis. FCC officials here said, were 1,300 of the nation's 2.100 AM radio stations.

Those participating could be heard clearly in their immediate localities. It only off the ground (hit reception was mixed and garbled. This, officials explained, was the advantage of Conelrad over the World War II method of shutting "down all broadcasting; it permits local authorities to advise people in their areas during emergencies while frustrating an enemy from finding a U.

Year-Io-Pay compasses and make reports to the FCC. Officials here said the system has an "acute need" for more participating stations, especially in the rural areas; and they some radio stations had failed to meet' commitments to participate. i They pointed out that the efficiency of the device is if more stations in more loCilitL'S participate, for every station is an added direction from which a radio beam can be sent. Conelrad is short for "control of- electromagnetic radiation." The system keeps as many AM radio stations as possible on the air, with the largest stations reducing power and every participating station shifting to a frequency not its own. Thus, an approaching enemy plane is provided with not a single beam, but more than it can handle.

The scramble renders direction finders on planes useless. Only two broadcasting trequcn- kilocycles nr used. The station are to either of these positions on the dial. An approaching enemy bomber would receive signals on these two from many cities, and would be unable to tell where they came from. On these frequencies ihc 1,300 stations which participated today continued to function, some carry- i ing regular programs and some special civil defense test i programs.

In a real emergency the participating stations would operate for the benefit of the local populace and for wha'ever use civil defense desired to put them. Results of tile test will not be i known for several days. BALL PIERCES BIG BOOK NEW YORK. Alex Andie, golf pro at the Shelter Rock Country Club on Long Island, has driven a golf ball through a Queensboro telephone book, which is nearly an inch thick. Not only did the ball go through both covers and the 5000 pages of the directory, but it continued 100 yards past the book.

Rainer sailed from New York July 1 to Holland where he spent a month visiting a Dutch family and another month touring the country. The local ambassador, who is 19, was the youngest person ever to visit a foreign country under the Experiment in International Living project. Most of the ambassadors were between 2 and 25 years of age, and some were as old as 29.

Rainer said he felt the re-- sponse of younger people in Lubbock to the competition for community ambassadors reflected the emphasis on youth in this area. Pleased With Experiment He expressed satisfaction with the community ambassador experiment, and indicated that Lubbock would benefit by enlarging the project in future years. "I feel this experiment has been good for the community, bcause they have concentrated part of their efforts on international good will," he said. "The ambassador can clear up some misconceptions about Europe and Europeans," he added, Rainer also said the experiment would benefit Holland. "The Dutch have gotten a distorted impression of our country from the tourists, who are the only Americans with whom they have been in contact," he stated.

"Each Dutch young person whom we visited will go back to their school or university and be an ambassador for the United States," he added. Gains Insight Into Problems Rainer pointed out that one of the most important effects of the experiment was the ambassador's personal gain. mentally no difference between the young people here and those of Holland. He said the Dutch youth were inclined to think scientifically, instead of politically, because of a difference in their education. Some of the Dutch young people show traces of the Each young person, who had visited Europe on tours other than the community ambassador project, said they missed the 'human side' of the country.

He indicated that there is no strong nationalistic feeling there, because Holland, being a small country, urges its people to move to other countries. "One of the major benefits -of this Experiment in International Living," Rainer said, "is the look into the human side of a foreign country which the ambassador is allowed." He added that hs talked with many young people on the ship returning to America. Some of them had visited Europe as individual travelers, other had taken special tours.

"I just don't like the boat. I've been on too many lately." K. Of P. Bestows Rank Of Page On 50 Men The Victor H. Lindsey Class, Knights of Pythias, largest group of candidates for page in the history of Lubbock's Lfidpe 486, were raised to the rank in ceremonies last night at K.
