' • -d : maim Free Summer Outboard Trip For Couple Given By Evinrude Do you know a young couple who would like an expense-paid summer vacation? A cruise from the Klondike to Manhattan ? They should be adventuresome, quick to respond to notice of this sort: Wanted: Personable married couple, ages 25 through 35, with solid boating experience, to cruise by outboard boat from Juneau, Alaska, to New York City, starting early June, this year. Fee, plus all expenses paid. Sound far-fetched? It’s not. Evinrude Motors, Milwaukee, is seeking such a couple for precise ly such a trip: a 6500-mile cruise down Alaska's inland waterway to Olympia, Washington, thence across the United States to New York City. With the exception of a portage of about 400 miles, the entire trip will be made by water. THE PURPOSE of the venture is to test equipment and to dram atize potential cruising areas open to boating families throughout the nation, according to Robert N. West, Jr., director of market ing, Evinrude Motors. “Too often, the boatman thinks solely in terms of water in his immediate Oceanography Grad Student SpeaksTonight Navy Lt. Cmdr. Don Walsh, a doctoral student in physical oceanography at Texas A&M, will address the Bryan-College Station chapter of the American Society for Oceanography tonight. Walsh’s talk, “Exploring Inner Space,’’ will highlight the 8 p.m. regular meeting in the Memorial Student Center Assembly Room, announced John Van Osdall. Active in numerous areas, Walsh was cited as one of the nation’s Ten Outstanding Young Men of 1960 and has received several other distinguished awards. The 37-year-old scientist, who made the deepest ocean dive and once commanded a submarine, works in A&M “oceanography from space” research, flies, boats, skin dives and is active in pho tography. He is in the final stages of his Ph.D. work and is complet ing a master’s degree in political science through correspondence. A native of Berkeley, Calif., Walsh has written 30 articles in the field of oceanography and emphasized oceanic education in more than 750 speeches in col leges, symposia, conferences, TV and radio presentations. The co-holder with Jacques Pic card of the world’s deepest ocean dive of 35,800 feet has also been cited with the Golden Plate Award from the American Acade my of Achievement, Legion of Merit from President Eisenhower, Gold Medal of Trieste, Italy, and the Distinguished Service Medal from the Theodore Roosevelt Association. vicinity,” West said. “We hope to create an awareness of the rivers, lakes and inland water ways open to all boatmen. We hope to show that a young couple, with proper equipment, can acheive a cruise of the kind most of us dream about.” In describing the couple his company seeks, West said: “They’re young—25 to 35—reli ant, personable, enthusiastic and with considerable experience in handling small craft. They’ll be sleeping aboard, on the beach and in shorefront motels. In a sense, they’ll be test drivers on the long est cruise of its kind. We think it’s a lifetime adventure for the right couple.” The boat in which the cruise will be made is a 20-foot Glastron Gulfstream runabout, powered with twin installation 55 hp Ev inrude Triumph outboard motors. The cruise is expected to start the first week in June and to end the first week of September. FIRST LEG of the cruise, from Juneau, Alaska, to Olympia, Washington, will be made down the inland waterway through Alaska and British Columbia. The second major run will be made up the Columbia River to Lewis ton, Idaho, at which point a port age of about 400 miles will be made to Fort Benton, Montana, on the Missouri River. The cruis ing couple will travel down the Missouri to St. Louis, thence up the Mississippi and Illinois Ri vers to Lake Michigan. They will travel through the Great Lakes, the Trent Waterway and the St. Lawrence to Montreal. From the St. Lawrence, they will head down the Richelieu into Lake Champ lain, then down the Hudson to New York City. “The couple will travel Alaska, three Canadian provinces and 17 states,” West said. “They’ll be met by cruising fleets and enter tained at boat clubs en route. We think they’ll have a ball.” Candidates for the assignment can receive application forms by writing to: Alaska - New York Cruise, Public Relations Depart ment, Evinrude Motors, Milwau kee, Wisconsin, 53216.

(AP Wirephoto) WASHINGTON > — Develop ment of a new process for ex tracting gold from previously unworkable ores, a breakthrough that might open huge new gold deposits to mining, was announc ed Wednesday by the U.S. Bureau of Mines. If successful, use of the process would help meet the gold needs of U.S. industry, but it would scarcely dent the Treasury’s gold- stock shortages. AN 8,000-square-mile area of Nevada, the Bureau said, is known to contain gold-rich ores which contain carbon compounds that hang on to gold so tightly that the conventional cyanide pro cess can’t extract it economically. The bureau said scientists at its Metallurgy Research Center in Reno have invented “an aque ous chemical treatment” to break up the gold-carbon love affair; once that is done, the cyanide process can extract the gold. The new method is said to permit economical recovery of 90 to 95 per cent of the gold in these ores, compared with previ ous recovery of only 20 to 35 per cent. BUT SO FAR it has been per formed only in the laboratory. Pilot scale tests are being con ducted, the Bureau said. “If the pilot scale tests indi cate commercially feasibility, this will be a major technical break through,” said J. Cordell Moore, assistant secretary of the interior for mineral resources. The bureau said the carbona ceous ores of Nevada are believed to contain some 10 million to 30 million ounces of gold, compared with the nation’s known reserves of some 9.4 million ounces eco nomically mineable by present methods. There are geological indica tions, the bureau added, that the gold-bearing area might extend into central Idaho and southern Nevada. “In Nevada alone,” Moore said, “success with the bureau’s pro cess could increase gold produc ing potential severalfold, yielding enough to supply domestic indus trial requirements for six or seven years. Army Inspection Set For April 6 Texas A&M’s Army ROTC will stand its annual formal and gen eral inspection April 5-6, an nounced Col. Jim H. McCoy, pro fessor of military science. A team of 12 inspectors headed by Col. Herbert W. Krueger, Fourth Army official of Fort Sam Houston, will conduct the command-type inspection. The department’s administra tion, equipment and supplies and instruction will undergo close scrutiny by the team, which will include 10 Army ROTC repre sentatives from other Fourth Army area universities and col leges. Colonel Krueger is assigned to the office of the deputy chief of staff for reserve forces. A&M’s 1,300 Army ROTC cadets will stand in-ranks inspec tion at 8 a.m. April 6. The Army element of the Corps of Cadets will be reviewed at 9 a.m. on the main drill field. Cadet commander for annual inspection will be Cadet Col. Pat rick G.
