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

ment, Evinrude Motors, Milwau

WASHINGTON <A>> — 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. Rehmet of Alice, deputy
corps commander.
Israel Prepares For All-Out
Arab Guerrilla Offensive

TEL AVIV </P)—Israel is steel
ing itself for an all-out offensive
by Arab guerrillas in an apparent
backlash from the massive as
sault on their bases in Jordan
last week. Officials here seem in
no mood to take any more raids
without hitting back.
Top-level discussions are be
lieved to be already under way
to plan how to meet any threat.
Sources predict action may reach
its peak around Israel’s indepen
dence day May 2.
Although any large-scale action
similar to the massive punch
against guerrilla bases in Jordan
last Thursday could plunge the
Middle East into another war,
such action is considered unlikely
at present. It has not been en
tirely ruled opt, however.
The guerrillas, although mauled
in the attack last week on their
bases at Karameh and Safe, are
raiding and firing mortars at
settlements again to show the
Arab world they have not been
crushed.
The Jordan border, especially
along the exposed Beisam Valley,
has flared daily since the opera
tion.
Sources said one possibility is
the formation of small Israeli
commando units to meet the
guerrillas at their own game,
trying to hit them in their bases
and curb their attacks.
Similar tactics were used by
the semisecret 101st Battalion 12
years ago against Egyptian com
mandos.
According to the best avail
able information, Israel is un
likely to endanger its diplomatic
campaign at this time with an
other “police action” invasion of
Jordan.
It still supports the flagging
peace mission of U.N. envoy Gun-
nar V. Jarring, but some circles
here hold out little hope it will
achieve any progress in breaking
the Middle East deadlock.
