Queen Donates Land For JFK Memorial
RUNNYMEDE, England—(UPI)—Queen Elizabeth II today dedicated a portion of this historic birthplace of Western freedom as a memorial to the late President John F. Kennedy. The acre of England will be American forever.
Mrs. Kennedy, moved to the edge of tears by the tribute to her slain husband, sat at the side of the queen in a silver grey chair as the monarch gave the American people a green hillside on this meadow where the Magna Carta, the first bill of rights, was signed 750 years ago.
"We went at his death." said the Queen.
Mrs. Kennedy twisted her hands in her lap and stared out across the River Thames which flows gently past this woodland and meadow in Surrey not far from London.
THE QUEEN'S SPEECH, phrased with unusual emotion for her, marked the official opening of the memorial—a seven-ton monument of Portland stone—bearing the credo by which the 35th President of the United States lived and died:
"Let every nation know that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, support any friend or oppose any foe, to assure the survival and success of liberty." The memorial, in a setting of trees and grassy slopes, is surrounded by a paved terrace and two symbolic stone seats for contemplation.
Chemistry Professor to be Honored
George S. Hammond, professor of chemistry at the California Institute of Technology, will deliver the 17th annual E.C. Franklin Memorial lecture in chemistry at 8 p.m. Wednesday in 411 Summerfield Hall.

Phi Lambda Upsilon, honorary chemistry fraternity, is sponsoring the lecture which honors the former KU faculty member who achieved great fame here and at Stanford University.
The honor society will hold its spring initiation preceding a dinner honoring Prof. Hammond at the Eldridge Hotel. Dinner tickets can be obtained at the chemistry office, 224 Malott.

Air Attack Silences Rebel Radio; Hope for Dominican Peace Lags
SANTO DOMINGO — (UPI) — New fighting in Santo Domingo, including the government air strike which silenced the rebel radio Thursday, dampened hopes today for early settlement of the Dominican crisis.
Five propellor-driven P51 fighters, firing machine guns and possibly rockets, knocked out the rebel radio transmitter about 2 p.m. Thursday.
THE AREA attacked was near the U.S. Embassy and the American-held supply corridor through Santo Domingo. A State Department spokesman said the planes strafed one U.S.-held position near the embassy, apparently by accident, but there was no report of U.S. casualties in the air attack.
Two U.S. Army security agents were shot and killed by the rebels in an earlier, unrelated incident, increasing total U.S. military casualties here to 20 dead.
AT LEAST TWO Dominicans were reported killed and three wounded in the stafing.
Bullets fired by the PS1s narrowly missed a jeep and a military bus in the supply corridor. The Americans riding in the two vehicles dived for cover. None of them was hit, but UPI correspondent Matthew T. Kenny's right shoulder was dislocated when he jumped out of the jeep. He was treated at the U.S. Marine medical station here.
THE SILENCING of the radio was a serious blow to the rebels, who had been using it to try to

recruit support outside Santo Domingo for their cause.
Three radio stations are still in operation here, two run by U.S. agencies and one by Maj. Gen. Antonio Imbert Barrera's military-civilian junta government.
U. S. officials expressed no regret over the silencing of the rebel
radio, which Thursday accused U.S. forces of "atrocities and called Ambassador W. Tapley Bennett a liar.
The strafing planes apparently came from San Isidro airbase, headquarters of government "strong man" Gen. Elias Wessin y Wessin.
