Soviet Youth Challenge Narrated to Scouts The United States faces a great challenge by Soviet youth, a 21-year-old Boy Scout said today after a 40-day tour of Russia. Robert Foust of New Holland, Pa., told the annual meeting of Region 3 Boy Scouts at the Statler Hilton Hotel that So viet youth have a "tremendous dedication to Communism." The Soviet Government is forming a new Communist man in Russian youth, he said. The government looks for leaders among the younger generation and encourages them through education and training to be better Communists. “They are determined to work for the future,” Mr. Foust said, "and have great confidence that their system will surpass capitalism through economic CORE Threatens Sit-ins On Utilities' Hiring The Washington chapter ot the Congress of Racial Equal ity today threatened a sit-in demonstration in the down town offices of two utility companies unless the firms agree to discuss their employ ment practices.

Colonial JUST A POOR RICH BOY Eaton's Scion Runs Away NASHVILLE. Tenn., Oct. 12 (AP).—He said he was Seth French—just a poor orphan who had knocked about the country. He had a hole in his pocket and he borrowed a needle and threat to mend it. He just wanted to complete his education—he said. Then, when confronted with the facts, young Cyrus Eaton lll—grandson of a multimil lionaire—broke down and cried. “I’m not happy—l want to start a new life,” the 16-year old said. "After 11 years in a private school, I wanted to see what it was like in a public school.” A There had been several holes in the Seth French story. For example, he claimed to have little education, yet had a de tailed knowledge of Latin. Why Nashville, for a boy running away from a sheltered life of untold wealth? "I’ve heard a lot about the city from different people,” young Eaton said, "and I ; especially had heard about ' West End High School’s foot- ; ball team.”' ( He tried to enroll in the ■ school yesterday, watched the ] team practice, and spent the I Nuclear Rockets Forecast by 1967 HOUSTON, Tex., Oct. 12 iAP>.—This country will be! able to start flight tests by 1967 of a nuclear rocket to power a second-stage booster required for interplanetary travel, Chair-! man Glenn T.

He said the nuclear rocket probably can be used for manned space flights within the next two decades. An even more efficient elec tric propulsion second-stage rocket on which the Air Force is working is likely to replace the nuclear rocket for long range flights in the 1980 s, Dr. Seaborg said.

Cyrus Eaton II flew into Nashville last night and talked with' his runaway son and Dr. Forrest Evans, director of spe cial education for city schools. The boy had been placed in Dr. Evans’ custody. "The boy is confused,” the Repeal of 'Blank Sheet' Law Is November Issue Repeal of the "blank sheet” ‘voter registration law, which backfired on its sponsors while Virginia was following the course of “massive resistance” to school integration, is pro posed by amendment to the State Constitution. Outcome of a referendum on the amendment, to be decided in the general election Novem ber 6, is by no means certain. In nearby Virginia, where sentiment was strongest to pre serve public schools while some others closed theirs, the amend ment is expected to win sub stantial approval. But elsewhere, particularly in Southside Virginia where re sistance to public school inte-i gration is strongest, the vote may go the other way. Pointed Registration Form Simply stated, the amend ment would write into the con stitution language specifically 'permitting the voting registrar to hand a new voter a printed form on which to register. | Because the Constitution now is silent on this, a South side Virginia lawmaker spon sored a law in the General As sembly which requires a regis rar to hand the new voter a blank sheet of paper and have ! him answer certain questions 1 without aid or assistance. I The sponsor, State Senator , Garland Gray of Waverly, ! found little difficulty in per suading a majority of lawmak ers to go along with his bill in 1958 at a time when tempers were short and fevers ran high over the racial issue.
