Baruch Urges Hiring Scientist 'Detectives'
New York. (UP)—International control of atomic energy by an atomic development authority, employing thousands of scientific detectives with authority to inspect mines and industrial facilities of every country, was proposed today to safeguard mankind from the disaster of an atomic war.
The proposal was presented to the political committee of the United Nations atomic energy commission, soon to begin discussions of safeguards against the illegal use of fissionable materials.
The 57-page report, prepared in the office of Bernard M. Baruch, chief American delegate to the United Nations atomic energy commission, detailed for the first time the steps to be taken to prevent the use of atomic energy in weapons of war.
The report proposed a squad of hundreds, "perhaps thousands," of top-notch scientists, including physicists, geologists, chemists and technicians, with unprecedented authority to make aerial and ground surveys, inspect mines, underground structures, industrial facilities and production, and storage and shipment of certain special equipment and materials.

Oregon Land To Be Raffled To Veterans
Klamath Falls, Ore. (UP)—There is an atmosphere of tenseness in this southern Oregon town, charged by the prospects of a $2,250,000 lottery for more than 7,000 acres of fertile soil to be "raffled off" by the government to 87 lucky sweepstakes winners.
Sept. 15 at 2 p.m. was the deadline for filing applications to participate in the first government "land rush" of the post-World War II era.
There are no crowds of hornyhanded land rushers milling around the United States Bureau of Reclamation offices here with buckboard wagons hitched behind plains ponies, but the government's intention of giving away 86 farms with an estimated value of $30,000 each, free, has attracted hundreds of applicants and more than 14,000 interested inquiries.
But the government made one point clear: Only veterans with a bona fide interest in dirt farming and who can prove it, need apply.
The land offered consists of 7,521 acres and comprises part of an area reclaimed from Tule Lake—an area which only 30 years ago was un-10 fathoms of water. Eighty-six farms—ranging in size from 60 to 141 acres—have been surveyed out of the huge plot.
More than 14,000 inquiries have been received from curious GIs, but less than 1,000 had submitted applications to the reclamation bureau by the deadline for filing.
At a drawing to be held in the Klamath Falls Armory some time between Nov. 1 and 15, 172 names will be drawn from the original list. The first lucky 86 will receive outright title to the homesteads, while the last 86 will be named alternates—next in line in the remote event any of the original 86 forfeit their claims.
The Tule Lake homesteader will have many advantages over his predecessors who dashed over the prairies in everything from buckboards to ox carts to stake out claims to rich Oklahoma and Kansas farm lands.
He won't have the hardships of former pioneers, for the reclaimed lands of Tule Lake have been under cultivation for ten years and have already been leveled and broken to raise rich crops of potatoes and onions.
Chester Neil Hollman, College freshman, was admitted to Watkins hospital Wednesday night with a broken bone in his right foot. The fracture came in a practice touch football game.

No Clues Revealed In Goering Suicide
Nuernberg (UP)—An anonymous three-man American investigating board today refused to disclose whether its intensive questioning has produced any clues to where Hermann Goering got and hid the poison with which he committed suicide.
No arrests, reprimands or disciplinary actions had been announced more than 24 hours after the board, still in secret session, went to work on Goering's suicide trick.
The bodies of Goering and the 10 executed nazi war criminals have been cremated and the ashes "dispersed secretly," it was announced officially today.
Picnic Postponed
The Psychology club picnic, scheduled for Monday, has been postponed. A short meeting will be held at 4 p.m. Monday in 21 Frank Strong hall to set a new date for the picnic, Jean Murray, secretary, announced today.
Stray Collie Serves As Model For Artists
Stray dogs may be a nuisance on the football field, but a University art class put a wandering canine to good use this morning.
While the class, Sketch I in Frank Strong hall, was looking around for another model, a large collie dog walked into the room, curled up on the modeling stand, and went to sleep.
The students sketched him for the rest of the hour.
Tickets Still Available For K.U.-Nebraska Game
There still are plenty of tickets available for the K.U.-Nebraska game Saturday, Earl Falkenstien, financial secretary of the athletic association, said today.
There are 500 reserved seats still to be sold in the east curve of the bowl, and 7,500 general admission tickets for the bowl will go on sale at the athletic office Saturday morning, he said.
