Miss Carlson will go to Norman, Sunday to take part in the Miss Football USA Pageant. Little Rock Merchants See U.A. Games As Economic Bonanza By BILL SIMMONS Associated Press Writer The University of Arkansas football games in Little Rock mean an additional $400,000 in business on the game weekend to the Capitaol city, the Little Rock Chamber of Commerce believes.

Charles Rixse of the chamber's convention bureau says Police Investigate Bomb Threat At Humphreys Hall Police and firemen investigated another bomb hoax last night. The entire 10-story Humphreys Hall building was emptied at 3 a.m. today after an uniden tified caller told the University operator a bomb had been planted on the fifth floor of the tall dormitory. Taking no chances, officers evacuated and searched building. Police Chief Hollis Spencer indicated that for the first time, officers have a substantial lead on which to work.

Spencer indicated that authorities know the telephone number from which the anonymous party called. He said the task now would be to find exactly who was using the phone that early in the morning. Spencer said the caller named himself, but that the name was not that of the caller. It appar ently did not coincide with oth iat about 20,000 people 01 bout half of a sellout crowd ai 'ar Memorial Stadium--arrive om outside Little Rock to at- nd the Razorback games. "We figure they spend wha' ould average out to about $20 ach," Rixse said.

He said the normal convention cnds about $30 per person, bu any of those who come to Lit Rock for the game will nol ay overnight, thereby reducing he average expenditure. This estimation includes hotel, motel and restaurant expenses epartment store shopping, am asoline purchased while in Lit Rock. It does not include the sale ckets to the game, sometimes er undisclosed information police have. Last night's scare was the first since school was out in the spring. Police and firemen were harassed during the sprini with anonymous bomb a calls involving Fayetteville Higl School, Woodland i Hig a various University build tags.

Officers had obtained no substantial leads until last night. Spencer indicated that las night's caller was probably hi volved in the earlier threats and said that his punishment under the law be stiff. Police apprehended a 14 -year old Fayetteville youth who mad one such call just before schoo was out. The youngster's ident ty was established after polk traced the telephone call he ha made from his parents' home. Because of his age, he a brought into juvenile court charges of juvenile deliquene 1 and remanded of his parents.

Th merchants are enthusiastic Ra zorback boosters. Johnson hope better Franklin oosevelt's landslide victory of 93G, Humphrey today turned us guns on Republican presidential nominee Barry Gold- ater over rural economics. Addressing a four-state re- tonal meeting of the National lural Electric Co-operatives Association, the Minnesota enator contended that rural Americans might stili be living "utter darkness" if it had een up to Goldwater. Humphrey said farm areas ot electricity because a Con- ress and Democratic adminis- ration "believed that the gov- rnment should work for the xople. And the people believed and called upon the government." But, said Humphrey, as he las time and again, "the philo- opliy of Goldwaterism holds hat people should be suspicious of the government, that they ihould mistrust the government that they should fear the people vho work for the He then struck his theme that he federal government has een an instrument for progress and prosperity.

In this case, he said, it was federal legislation created the Rural Electrifi cation Administration anc irought rural America out the darkness. "Senator Goldwater," sak lumphrey, "has consistently voted against rural eleetrifica ion and has just as consistently voted against all the relatec programs that make rura' electrification possible." He said he was talking aboul the Tennessee Valley Authority other federal wholesale power and "all the build rura authorities, dams programs which America." Humphrey-was-lihe-a human talking machine in Texas Thurs day. He spread the Johnson iospel from Wichita Falls in the north, to Waco in the center and San Antonio in the south. And the Minnesotan, who one of those instrumental pushing the civil rights bill tc enactment, was i us Ij pleased with rhe reception from shouting crowds and scramblinj school children who twic crowded around his car. Humphrey made the point a his first stop, in Waco, where was serenaded with "The Eye of Texas Are Upon 'tha some people had showed con cern over his trip to Texas.

But after all, he said, "it i one country we're al Americans." He got his wildest reception-and his first real heckling fron Goldwater supporters at Sa Antonio. At the John F.

anti-satellite systems have scored several successful intercepts of U.S. satellites up to 'hundreds of miles." McNamara appeared at a news conference to give some additional details on the anti- satellite systems which President Johnson announced terse- ly in a speech Thursday at Sacramento, Calif. The defense secretary said "I'm under serious restriction" as to what details he could give out cither about the two satellite-killer systems or about a new over the horizon radar which Johnson also announced. Both, he said, are "very highly classified." He did disclose that the anti- Mighty Saturn Rocket Hurls Model Of Moonship Into Orbit CAPE KENNEDY, Fia. (AP) --A Saturn 1, the world's mightiest space rocket, thundered to its seventh straight test-flight sucness today, hurling into orbit an unmanned model of the Project Apollo moonship.

The flight was the second in a long series of unmanned Apollo flights leading to three-man earth orbital missions and eventually a lunar landing. The rockets and spacecraft are early versions of hardware being developed for the moon journeys. The launching was observed today by nine of the nation's astronauts, some of whom may be crewmen on moon flights late in this decade. The mammoth Saturn 1, 19 stories tall and weighing 570 tons, blazed skyward at 11:23 a.m. (EST) under the tremendous force of 1.5 million pounds of thrust generated by the world's greatest rocket power- plant.

The rocket's massive cluster of eight first-stage i trailed a plume of flame the length of a football field as it burned for 147 seconds to shove the payload through the dense lower atmosphere. The second itage fired wilh a urst of thrust lo push the salel- ite into orbit. The National Aeronautics and Administration announced 11 minutes after launching hat rockets had performed flaw- essly and said the Apollo craft, called a "boiler plate" because is a weighed metal shell, had settled into an orbit ranging rom about 115 to 135 miles high, This path closely approximates the "parking" orbit into which lunar astronauts will set- Je before restarting their booster engines to propel their crafl on the desired course to the moon. 'Bonus' Of $225,000 Estimated For NWA "If Little Rock does $400,000 on the basis of general retail sales. He said no specific figures on department stores sales or related retail sales are available, but that football weekends can be credited with considerable extra business.

George Tharel, president of the Retail Merchants Division, and the retail director of Downtown Fayetteville Unlimited, told the TIMES this morning that business is generally good on football weekends. He pointed out that the situation here is not fully comparable to Ihat in Little Rock where most games are played at night which gives out of town visitors the day to shop. All Fayetteville games are played in the afternoon, and many of those who attend have no opportunity to shop, Tharel guessed. Marcus Walden, a department store executive, said business is extra business on a Razorback Eootball game weekend, then Fayetteville and greater Northwest Arkansas probably do $225,000 in bonus business," Wesley Gordon, Fayetteville Chamber of Commerce executive secretary said this morning. Gordon's "off the cuff" estimate came in answer to a question posed by the TIMES in connection with an Associated Press story concerning footbail-related business at the capital city.

(See above.) Gordon based his estimate on a potential 1,000 rooms in the area--from Bentonville to Fort Smith--which are booked in connection with football weekends; plus gasoline purchases in the area; and a probable three meals per person for non-residents attending the game. Gordon padded his estimate a on football game weekends, but said he doubted that it was as good as it was a number of years ago when traffic problems in getting into Fayetteville, onto the Square, and out to the game were less severe. Walden also pointed to the fact that night games here would not only serve as a strong gale attraction, but would be of benefit for the general trade area. Ray Culpepper, president of the Evelyn Hills Shopping Center Merchants' Association, told the TIMES this morning that business last year at the shopping center was some of the besl "we've had" on football weekends. Culpepper said he had discussed the matter with severa fellow merchants and all agreed that business was considerably above average when the Razor backs play in Razorback Stadi McNamara Move Indicates Crisis WASHINGTON (AP)-Secretary of Defense Robert S.

Namara abruptly canceled his appearance before a Chicago jroup today amid unconfirmec reports of a possible new incident in the Far East. The Defense Department announced tersely that Secretary of the Army Stephen Ailes deliver McNamara's luncheon before the Executives' Club in Chicago. "A problem arose that required Secretary McNamara to remain here," the Defense De partment said. There was considerable evi dence in the Pentagon that som sort of an unusual situation was afoot. One source said messages hac come in indicating a possibli new shooting incident in the Gulf of Tonkin where U.S.

Yang, whose influence president of the higher party school was enormous, pushed a heory Ihat It Is possible for capitalism and communism to merge. Mao calls this a betray al of the Marxian theory class struggle, of China's own line that revolution is the onlj way to defeat' the West am communlM have-not nations. In August, an article in th party's newspaper, the Pekim People's Daily, denounced Yan, as a proponent of "moderi revisionism." This meant was espousing Soviet Premie Khrushchev's ideas.

Johnson Demonstrates Advantage Of Being In' WASHINGTON (AP) President Johnson, back from his first tour of the campaign season, has demonstrated anew that the man in office usually has a built-in advantage over the man who wants his job. Twice in two days, Johnson dipped into the Pentagon's trove of military secrets for revelations which got great public attention. Although Johnson at no point directly tied his disclosures to his campaign against Republican rival Barry Goldwaler, many seemed lo see Goldwater as his target. In Sacramento, Thursday Johnson made two major military disclosures, both involving the development of new defense systems which military experts said could properly be! lumped in the strategic category. The President did not say so, but it seemed evident that his revelations were a blunt response to claim that the Democratic administration has failed to come up with any new strategic weapons.

These were the secrets unwrapped by the President: 1. The United States has a new radar that "will literally look around the curve of the earth, alerting us to aircraft and especially missiles, within seconds after they Previously, there had been a I5-minute warning gap. 2. "We now have developed and tested two systems with tht ability to intercept and destroy armed satellites circling the earth in space. I can tell you today that these systems are in place, they are operationally ready, and they are on The systems are land-based.

On Wednesday, in Seattle, Johnson heralded another military development designed to make certain that "neither madman nor a malfunction could trigger nuclear war." Johnson announced that several nuclear weapons now are equipped with "permissive action locks" which he described as electromechanical units "which must be opened by secret combination before action is possible.".
