When the wealthy rancher’s son is killed while guarding over his supply, Matt must forge into a freezing western- winter blizzard to seek the killer. .. .but in vain. It’s only after the return to Dodge and the foot-deep snow that he realizes the truth. Tuesday: Johnny Dollar Bob Bailey as Johnny Dollar solves “The Mid-Night Sun Mat- ter.” Wednesday: Have Gun Will Travel Paladin is hired to help clear a man who is charged with mur- der. John Dehner plays Paladin. Thursday: Suspense “A Friend of Daddy’s” is a tense tale of a husband who takes in an old war buddy of his who had saved his life... .but he didn’t count on the fact that Butch had become a psycho until he received a frantic call from his wife just in time. Friday: Heartbeat Theater “Happy Birthday, Mr. Sam,” stars Tyler McVey. With past personal tragedy in his life, a man finds a new life with the Sal- vation Army. Toscanini Arturo Toscanini conducts the NBC Symphony Orchestra in Beethoven’s “Egmont Overture,” Richard Wagner’s “Forest Mur- murs,” and Franz Schubert’s “Un- finished Symphony, No. 8.” Ben Grauer’s guest at intermis- sion time guest is Paul Creston, American composer, and member of ASCAP.

(Continued from page 5.) to answer the bell for the seventh round, claiming an injury to his left shoulder. At Tuesday weigh-in, Liston, who is usually as silent as a hulk- ing shadow, said, “I’m going to get him by a knockout.” Clay pre- dicted the same, but contrary to his usual practice, did not name the round. It’s doubtful that he himself suspected the fast finish to the fight—even though he had predicted a real “surprise” which he wouldn’t reveal. Clay is best described as a fast and accurate puncher, able to avoid blows with his great speed. Liston, who depends solely on his swinging power, had to move in and stay on top of Clay to gain an advantage—that’s hard to do. Hurting Liston also, was the fact that neither fighter had fought for 16 months. For a man Sonny’s age (described as 31, going on 38) that’s a long time. When asked about his next title defense, Cassius said to Floyd Patterson, “You’re next—you de- deserve it.” He added, “We have got the Bear, so now we will get the Hare.” When queried about the fight all Patterson could say was, “Liston fell for his dancing again.” SAVINGS BOND AWARD—Lt.

Truxal (1), com- mander of the 932d Aircraft Control and Warning Sq. at Rockville, receives a certificate from ADC headquarters for having achieved 50 per cent participation unit-wide in the command Savings Bond cam- paign. Col. Alan G. Long (r), commander of Air Forces Iceland, made the presentation at April’s Commanders Call. (USAF Photo by A1C Keener) Fishing Industry Reaps Profit Since Early Days Of Iceland A large part of the population of Iceland is employed in fishing and the associated processing industries. From the time of the first settlement, fishing has been a prime oc- cupation of the Icelanders. Cod and herring are the most profitable and plentiful of all kinds of fish caught. It is estimated they make up about 80 per cent of the catch. t'” On the south and southwest coasts the cod-fishing season runs from January to May, but the season varies from one part of the country to another. The cen- ter of the cod-fishing industry is Reykjavik, though it is carried on in practically all towns and villages on the coastline. Mainly, the cod fish is filleted and frozen, some salted or dried. North Coast The herring fisheries are chief- ly off the north coast and their big season runs from July to September, when the waters are crowded with ships from many countries. The center of the herring fish- ing is Siglufjordur, where huge processing plants are situated, a large number of these are owned by the State. Hail & Bless ... (Continued from page U.) Oliver, D.

Haynes, T. L., A1C York, C. M., SSgt. Fishing for herring is an un- stable industry, sometimes very valuable catches are made, and at other times the fish seems to dis- appear completely. All the same, herring fishing has played a very important part in Iceland’s na- tional economy. In autumn and winter consider- able catches of herring are made off the southwest coast. The her- ring are salted or processed to produce herring oil and herring meal. Considerable catches of various other fish are made in Icelandic waters, among them are haddock, coalfish, sea-perch, catfish, lump- fish and flatfish. Lobsters and shrimp play their part in the in- dustry also.

Mr. Magnusson climbed to an altitude of 16,000 feet in a Ger- man KA-6 sailplane in a flight east of Reykjavik to capture the gold altitude leg. Representing Iceland He and his colleague, Mr. Thor- hallur Philippusson, who owns a hobby store in Reykjavik, are re- presenting Iceland in the Inter- national Soaring Contest at the Royal Air Force Station, South Cerney, England tomorrow, May 29 through June 12. Both men will be soaring FIA’s 49.2-foot standard class sailplanes, one a German KA-6 and the other a Finnish Vasama. International Meet According to Sergeant Lyon, the Icelandic Soaring Club could not have picked two better quali- fied men to represent them in the international meet. Among the countries to be re- presented at the South Cerney Meet are Iceland, the United States, England, France, Poland, Germany, Hungary, the U.S.S.R., Denmark, Canada, New Zealand, Australia and other countries where soaring is popular. Altitude Record The United States holds the world’s sailplane cross-country flight of approximately 635 miles and the altitude record of 44,255 feet. The summer soaring season will commence here in July when the Icelandic duo returns from the meet in England. The Icelander’s soaring site, in this area, is lo- cated on a 4,000-foot grass field about 12 miles east of Reykjavik. All over the world, words like “segel flugzeug”, “sigl flugvallar” or just plain “soaring” will ring a familiar bell to those people who enjoy soaring as the superlative sport. “Grand Award Of Sports” The American Broadcast Com- pany, in association with Sports Illustrated magazine and Time- Life Broadcast, is instituting “Grand Award of Sports” to pay tribute to the year’s best in base- ball, football (professional and college), track and field, boxing, basketball (professional and col- lege), swimming and diving, horse racing, skating, hockey, skiing, motor racing, tennis and bowling.
