Rocks, bottles fly in two U.S. cities
From the wires of United Press International
Several hundred Negro youths went on a looting, rock-and-bottle spree at Dayton, Ohio, Tuesday night while sniper fire accompanied more rock-and-bottle throwing in a predominantly Negro section of Hartford, Conn. The Dayton melee followed a rally which protested the killing of a Negro civil rights worker by a white policeman. More than 70 persons were arrested. Police Major G. W. O'Connor blamed "fire-eaters" for the trouble. At Hartford, police wearing riot helmets fired tear gas grenades to quell the disturbance which was described by state police as "considerable trouble." The violence erupted after plans for a second open housing march collapsed.
Bogus bills circulated

Beulah hits Texas coast
BROWNSVILLE, Tex.—Hurricane Beulah, one of the Gulf of Mexico's storms of the century, drove the northern edge of its hurricane-force winds into Brownsville early today. Whirling 175-miles-per-hour winds at her center, Beulah was on a course expected to take it up the Texas coast. Gov. John Connally warned Texans that Beulah could be one of the most disastrous in the history of the gulf coast.
Israel fires on U.A.R. boats
JERUSALEM—Israel's artillery opened fire on eight Egyptian military boats in two separate incidents in the Suez Canal today and hit three of the craft, an Israeli government spokesman said. Egypt claimed the guns hit cities. The Israeli announcement said the guns fired first on six Egyptian boats filled with soldiers who violated the ceasefire agreement by sailing in the canal. An Egyptian announcement said the United Nations Truce Supervisory Organization had been notified about the incident.
The Pacific commander also said that the proposed barbed wire and electronic "anti-infiltration" barrier across the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) announced last month by Defense Secretary Robert S. McNamara "will never be a substitute for bombing.
WASHINGTON—(UPI)—Adm. Ulysses S. G. Sharp, commander of U.S. forces in the Pacific, has warned Congress that a halt in the bombing of North Vietnam would be a "disaster" for the United States that would extend the war indefinitely.
Sharp predicted that a cessation of the U.S. air strikes would mean an immediate and large increase in Americans killed. "We would, in my opinion, be extending the war indefinitely," he said.
Adm. Sharp defends bombings

"The most undesirable thing that could happen would be to put this in and then stop the bombing, because immediately everything would flow down there and this obstacle system is only an obstacle system. It is not going to completely stop anything so that the obstacle system would be very rapidly broached in quantity if we stopped the bombing," Sharp said.
He said that an end to the bombing also would boost North Vietnamese morale, lead to a considerable buildup of American ground forces, and create an immediate buildup of Communist

Sharp's assessment of the air war was given to the Senate preparedness subcommittee Aug. 9-10, one day after the administration cleared 16 new targets for bombing. Some of the target clearances were requested by Sharp as far back as 1966.

Sharp said that the bombing, even with its broad restraints, has hurt the North Vietnamese.
The students are scheduled to perform a scene from Edward Albee's "American Dream," and one from Tennessee Williams' "Night of the Iguana."
"He is suffering painful military, economic and psychological strains," Sharp said. "Now, when the enemy is hurting, we should increase our pressures."
