Rockets spill; residents evacuated United Press International SHAMROCK — A segment of Interstate 40 was dosed for several hours Tuesday and resi dents of four houses temporari ly evacuated because a truck car rying 1,746 small rockets over turned, officials said. A six-man military team from El Paso’s Fort Bliss reported no damage to 72 rockets that spilled when the truck hit a cow and overturned around 3:30 a.m. about 1.5 miles west of Sham rock, near Oklahoma. Fort Bliss spokeswoman Mariann Rittner said the milit ary team opened boxes contain ing the spilled rockets, but found no damage. A weapons expert from Fort Sill in Lawton, Okla., also was dispatched to the site, officials said. The rockets, which are 2.75 inches in diameter and 4 feet long, did not contain warheads, Rittner said. They are used on helicopters and war planes. A private trucking firm was transporting the rockets from the army’s Pine Bluff Arsenal in Pine Bluff, Ark., to the Holo- man Air Force Base in Alamo gordo, N.M., Rittner said. Larry Todd, Austin spokes man for the Texas Department of Public Safety, said no one was injured when the truck over turned on its side on 1-40 in Wheeler County. There was no fire, but the area was sealed off just in case.

Sturdy nylon thread because it holds up better. Only solid brass eyelets. And long- lasting, rugged Vibram® soles. The result? A handsewn so comfortable, the hreaking-in period ends the m * j -j day you put them on. llI1lD6tldll(l^^ TM4TATE 2023 TEXAS AVE.
