The trust estate of Herman F. Brinkman, who died in 1920, was terminated yesterday by Circuit Judge William R.

Collinson. The Judge ordered a division into eight parts of the $44,800 awarded to the Refund CONTINUED FROM FADE dcrtaken only in' the Sunshine to Seminole section until the widening project is completed. Installation of 15 20,000 lumen mercury vapor lights was authorized In this section, at a total cost of $7888. First section of the Grand Street whiteway, authorized by the board yesterday, will extend from Glen-stone to Kings, where fifty four 20,000 lumen mercury vapor lights will replace the present 10 residential-type lights at a total cost of $18,4116. Other improvement authorizations approved cover equipment acquisitions in the electric de-partmentf and electric, water and gas main extensions at several locations.

Manager Castleberry presented a plan which will resolve differences with the Highway Department and the Bureau of Public Roads on CU's reimbursement for- relocation of Sunshine water mains, essential to proposed wid ening of Sunshine this summer. CU had objected to application of an "extended service life" formula, which would provide a credit (deducted from the reimbursement total) when new main is substituted for old, based on assumption that the new main will provide as many extra years of service as the number of years the old main has been in the ground. In Springfield's soil and climate, life of cast iron pipe is estimated at 250 years. About 17,000 feet of main must be replaced on Sunshine, between Glenstone and Scenic, including BOOO feet of 10-inch main, 7000 feet of 12-inch main, and 4000 feet of 8-inch main. CU originally planned to install 12-inch main for the length of the project, including 10,000 feet of new main.

Plan now calls for a 3000-foot section of used 10-inch main at the Scenic end of the project. Thus, the amount of new main to replace old is reduced. Also, the main to be replaced has been in the ground only 18 years, rather than 30, thus cutting the effect of application of the "extended service life" formula. Water Department Manager Ray Piner hasn't completed his computations. But he told the board it's indicated CU will re ceive reimbursement approximating $485,000 on the relocation project.

He believed the new plan is acceptable to the state and federautgencies. Board melliers noted that ac ceptance ofne federal formula on the Sunshine project does not imply acceptance on all future projects, and that each highway dcpartment-CU contract is subject to separate negotiation. Board Member Darby noted that the board's executive 'committee has been working with a City Council committee in the hope of establishing a retirement plan for all city employes. Darby believed other phases of CU "personnel relations" merit study, He particularly stressed the fact that salary adjustments come up at separate times electric, water and gas departments' at the be-ginliing of each calendar year, transportation department in June of alternate years suggested that all should be considered simultaneously, and in connection with the budget, Member Joe Bon Wann concurred, said favor "a closer working relationship" with City Council on such matters, possibly "a coordination of salary changes not schedules" with those of the city. Both Darby and Wann are former councilmen.

Member Close reminded that most CU employes are members of unions, General government employes (except for firemen) are not. Chairman Hal Fanning assigned the personnel study task to the executive committee, asked that It pursue also its retirement plan studies.

Bishop CONTINUED FROM PAGE 9 philosophy of life like Communism or any other ism except by a spiritual philosophy of life, i "It is not enougn merely to be anti-evil. We must be for some thing and that somethingHrfflisTbe the true, the good, and beautiful. We must be for something and that something is the Flag of the United States, which we hail so proudly, and the principles for which it stands." Millions of people, "languishing throughout the world," continued the Bishop, are "longing for a spiritual and material resurrection." Nations still look hopefully, he said, to-the United States to give "life to their dreams of democracy and its blessed freedoms to bring peace to a perishing world." "To preserve for ourselves and give to other nations the twofold precious heritage that is ours is a duty of each of us," he said.

"In doing so, there will be no fan fare, no martial music to enliven our spirits; we will receive no headlines in the daily press; no medals of honor will be conferred upon us, but we will be in deed and in fact the saviors of our be loved country and of a world that will die without us. "In doing so, our inspiration must be the Flag of our Country and the Cross of Christ the blessed symbols of our twofold blessed heritage." Bishop Strecker also spoke at a luncheon meeting of the Springfield Lions Club yesterday; He mentioned the recent ecumenical council called by Pope John XXIII in Rome, which he attended. The bishop expressed the opinion that separation of church and state, as in America, "is a thing for the world" and that it will allow harmony and unity. Development of "unity among all Christians" is a matter of greatest concern to Pope John. The Bishop told the Lions Club.

Karl Rolvaag (role'-vahg), Rolvaag was the Democratic candidate last November when voters divided so evenly that Republican incumbent Elmer L. Anderson wound up the winner by 138 votes. The recount, pending a decision on disputed ballots, put Rolvaag in front by 133. Anderson remains in office pending a decision.

First Radar Link to Mars PASADENA, Calif. (AP)-Scicn-tists syhcy established first radar contact with the planet Mars by transmitting a 25-billion watt signal.

By the time the signal finished its 125-million-mile round trip all that returned was one billionth of one trillionth of a watt. The rest was dissipated in space. But what remained was enougri to indicate Mars has both rough and smooth surfaces, similar to those of the earth and moon, Hie California Institute of fech-' nology said Thursday thai scientists at its Jet Propulsion Laboratory made the first contact 21 from the Goldstone Tracking Station in the California desert. The announcement was delayed to permit time for data analysis. The Mars experiment will' continue 12 hours a day until early March, when the planet will move out of radar range.

On Feb, 2, when the planet made its closest approach, the signal took 11.1 minutes to travel to Mars and back. The contact on Jan. 21 was the longest in distance ever achieved until Thursday when signals from Goldstone were bounced off the planet Venus in a 180-million-mile round trip. However, this contact was much simpler than the Mars signal transmission.
