NEW ORLEANS -- The coast guard received a call to investigate an eerie green light several feet above the Mississippi River and moving downstream. Out went a 40-foot boat with a full crew. Tthe boat caught up with the green glow 14 miles south of New Orleans. It was a swarm of lightning bugs. {| HONG KONG -- Overseas Chin- | See by THE PAPERS BOMBAY -- A group of men are undergoing treatment in a Bombay hospital following a spectacular bee-catching expedition. The village industries depart- ment of the Bombay state govern- ment has announced that it has been able to capture from the state's forests as many as 300 col- onies of wild bees. This is describ- ed as an all-time record for any such operation. Hunderds of trained workers scoured the leopard - and - snake -| infested jungles for several weeks trying to locate and seize bee col- onies. One man was killed by a leppard. Two died of snake bites. About 50 were stung badly by angry bees which gave battle. Describing the capture of a mas- sive bee colony in one area, a 30- year-old government worker said it toak his party of seven six days to» capture the colony. The hive was dangling from the top of a 80-foot tree. The moment they tried to tackle it out came thous- ands of maddened bees. The men were surrounded and it took them hours to fight their way out. {The Bombay government has established a research centre at Mahabaleshwar, a mountain re- sort, where experts are devising methods to tame wild bee colonies. The idea is to make the bee-catch- ing operations less hazardous. 'The behavior of bees is being studied and one finding is that all honey bees are not aggressive. The experts found that while some col- onies will fight others are "'meek, well-behaved and perfectly law- abiding."' LONDON -- Teenaged Russian rls are fashion-conscious but run into trouble with their appetites, Moscow radio said. '\A commentator answered a question from two teenagers in Glasgow, Scotland, in a program beamed to Britain. \"The girls do go in for the point- ed toes and stiletto heels," she said. "The sheath dress has caught oh and we always try to achieve the slim look, but not always with success ... for most Russians en- joy their meals. BRANTFORD -- A would-be car tthief who got his wires crossed tackled the wrong vehicle Tues- day. Constable Ronald Stockdale said he was checking doors when he noticed the red dome light flash on his police car standing a short distance away. Then he saw a man fumbling with the wires under the dashboard. "YT can't understand it," the of- ficer said later. "A yellow and 'blue traffic car wth police print- ed on the side of it.

Chuckling, Mc- Darrah inserted an advertisement in the Voice: "Genuine beatniks with beards. Sandals or shoes optional. Ripped sweaters, frayed shirts. Girl beat- niks. Orthodox clothes or black." The newspaper began hearing from '"'cats all over the place' and McDarrah, who is bringing out a book entitled The Beat Scene, found himself in business. "There was no trouble in finding beatniks," he explained. 'Like if you're walking down the street and you meet a midget, then two, then six -- you think the world is full of midgets. The world isn't being overrun by beats. It just seems that way." Lady beatniks are chaperoned at parties. Some people have fixed and erroneous ideas about how beatniks behave, said McDarrah, adding: "Tve come to the conclusion people prefer the spurious to the real."' Authentic beatniks, in McDar- rah's view, are striving to find order and artistry in life and bear no relation to "juvenile delinquents and phoney creeps" who infest New York. "People are always calling me up wanting to be beats but they don't qualify." McDarrah led a reporter -- so square he was wearing a necktie -- to a "'pad'"' at a place called Sniffen Court, where ten- male and female beatniks were supposed to be entertaining: a group of Wall Street and advertising men. The hazards of his job quickly became apparent when it turned out that the businessmen and their womenfolk were dressed in what they imagined to be beatnik style and were engaged in a head-long aping of beatniks. "Man, this is humiliating,' said Fred in the bedlam. "I've never seen such creepism."' A beatnik poet -- the only Negro in the place -- tried reciting, screaming "Shut up!" after each stanza. His work sounded like collection of mottoes from a w room wall. A girl with long straight hair stood impassively with a four-foot lily in one hand and a drink in the other. The girls were catty cats -- as at any party: "Imagine, wearing a leather jacket with purple leotard! Strictly 42nd Street man .. . Jodpurs and sneakers, oh man! The lily-girl suddenly climbed onto a man's shoulders and open- ed fire at the poet with a water pistol. One of her pals observed: "Nothing happens at beatnik parties that doesn't happen at other parties -- but it may happen a little earlier." LONDON -- Salah Salem, the Egyptian politician known in Bri- tain as the "dancing major', is ill with kidney trouble in the fa- shionable London clinic. A hospi- tal spokesman said Salem, head of the United Arab Republic Press Syndicate, is "comfortable" after having been flown secretly into Britain for treatment. He got his nickname in 1953 when pictures showed him dancing in his under- pants with Sudanese tribesmen op- posing British rule in the Sudan. Temiskaming 6 Haileybury, Ont. P. O.
