The Kars fire broke out Sat- urday afternoon in a one-storey house near the Rideau River. Danny, 4, and Nicky, 3, were the sons of Mr. and Mrs. Dan Lukyniuk. The third victim, Donna Lee, 4, was the daughter of Mrs. Donna Young, who kept house for the Lukyniuk family. Mrs. Young had gone to get a load of bread from a neighbor when the fire started. Nyerere Quits In Tanganyika DAR - ES - SALAAM, 'Tangan-| ; yika (Reuters)--The Governor- General of Tanganyika today accepted the resignation of Julius Nyerere as prime minis- ter, it was officially announced. Rashidi Kawawa, minister without portfolio, was appointed to succeed Nyerere. (Reports in Nairobi, Kenya, said Kawawa, 32, was believed to hold views well to the left of Nyerere's moderate policies.) Nyerere took the post when Tanganyika, a former United Nations trust territory adminis- tered by Britain, became inde pendent last month Previously he was chief min- ister of the East African terri- Reliable sources reported ad- ditional days were needed to check a faulty oxygen system in the environmental control system. This system, which feeds oxygen to the astronaut's pressurized space suit, devel- 4 oped problems during a check 4 early today. The discovery of the trouble prompted officials to call an immediate 24-hour delay of the shot, pushing it from Wednes- day until Thursday. Later, the sources reported, it was decided to make a complete check to ensure all is right for Glenn's safety. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration has not announced a definite date for the firing and therefore declined comment on the report. The trouble developed in a hard-to-get-at spot in the cap- sule and the entire control panel had to be removed so techni- cians could correct it. This is the fourth postpone- ment of the launching. It origi- nally was set for Dec. 20, when officials felt there was a chance to achieve manned orbit flight in 1961. When this was deemed impossible the shot was put off until Jan. 16. Problems with the Atlas booster resulted in another week's delay and minor capsule difficulty pushed the launching back still another day. News of the postponement came as Glenn, like a condi- tioned boxer closing out his training camp, began final prep- arations for the flight. In the last three weeks, he has 8-Year-Old Queried In $100,000 Blaze OTTAWA (CP) -- An eight- year-old Ottawa boy was taken to police headquarters Sunday for questioning in connection with a $100,000 fire which last week left 38 people homeless. Fire Chief Armand Page said the boy was picked up after the fire department received a call to' fight a minor rubbish blaze in the same neighborhood Sun- ay. Chief Page said that under questioning the boy admitted to setting a blaze which burned three houses last Wednesday. The boy was released in cus- tody of his parents. Chief Page said no decision has been made as big whether a charge will be laid. flown 60 theoretical flights and in the process has landed in the Atlantic, Indian and Pacific oceans--hypothetically, that is. The U.S. hopes to send Glenn, in the capsule atop the. Atlas booster rocket, into an orbit be- tween 100 and 150 miles above the earth. If all goes well, he will make three trips around the earth at about 17,500 miles an hour, Then his capsule is to parachute into the ocean for a pickup by waiting helicopters and ships. Glenn gave little indication of tension Sunday. He attended the Riverside Presbyterian Church in Cocoa Beach, prayed, joined the hymnm-singing in a sturdy tenor, signed autographs for Sunday school children and gen- erally acted like a man who wasn't going any place more dangerous than a desk in a busi- ness office. As he left the small church, the last hymn he heard the choir singing was God Be With You 'Til We Meet Again. 6 People Die In Colorado Snow Slide TWIN LAKES, Colo. (AP)--A giant mass of snow slid almost silently down Colorado's highest mountain Sunday, sweeping over four houses and taking at least six ltves. Officials estimated more than 200,000 tons of snow plunged down the southern slope of 14,- 3341-foot Mount Elbert in a 314- mile run. It engulfed the west- ern end of Twin Lakes, a cen- tral Rocky Mountain village 140 miles southwest of Denver. The avalanche was more than 300 yards wide and 15 feet deep. One family was wiped out. G. L. Shelton, 50, his wife Marie, 40, their son Stevie, 14, and daughters Linda, 9, and Vickie, 8, all died. Two persons were rescued from 'the buried wreckage of home. William Adamich, 35, and his wife Barbara, 30, were taken to hospital in Leadville with frostbite and possible internal injuries. Their son, Billy, 8, was found dead. Another son, Mich- ael, 10, was missing. The other two houses were va- cant. About 600 persons worked more than six hours in the frigid mountain air, searching the wreckage of the houses. A neighbor, Nels, Lindstone, 66, said that when he awoke at 8 a.m. he looked out of a window and saw only snow and wreck- age where the houses had stood. thorized to step up government ; Sita ; Z i Leth investigation was ex- spending in times of recession pected to determine positively and provide cities and States) y : sad ; with federal loans .and' grants} hether or not the Russian-built to help them stern protest Sunday to Commu- nist Bulgaria. c I The circumstances speed tip work.| UG 17 Plane was on a spy mis-|crash have led most o making construction projects. sion, ue : to believe the planc was on a A ministry communique said| similar mission to that of U.S. HOLDS WAGE LINE the plane, a Soviet-built MiG-17,| pilot Francis Gary Powers who of the bservers with scepticism and fired off ajhis plane safely at the coastal/ |naval and aur base at Brindisi,| which he flew over on his way inland, the observers said.
