Living is easier with natural gas A gas light and gas "char” grill can turn your
patio or yard into a pleasant and useful
living area. It's a spacious kind of family room
that’s ideal for quiet moments or big parties.
The soft glow of gas light sets the mood for
relaxing or entertaining. And your gas grill
makes outdoor cooking fun for everybody.
. There’s no tedious preparation, no long
waiting and no messy charcoal—yet you still get
that good charbroiled flavor in steaks and
burgers. Get yourself a gas light and grill. It’s
an easy way to add a room, with
k no ceiling on good living.

Gl Throws Back
Satchel Charge
Into Faces
By BRYCE MILLER
SAIGON (UF1) —Two out
numbered U.S. Army platoons
beat back a Communist assault
today In a battle climaxed by
an American sergeant hurling a
guerrilla satchel charge back
into the Viet Cong’s faces.
The explosion killed the two
guerrillas who had tossed the
satchel at the U.S. air
cavalrymen. The attacking
Communist company fled drag
ging their dead and wounded
into the jungle to end the three
hour fight, American spokesmen
said.
The two U.S. platoons, each
numbering about 44 men, used
only small arms and grenades
in fighting off the Communist
force of about 150 armed with
mortars, automatic weapons
and the satchel charge.
The dawn fight in the Central
Highlands’ coastal area about
300 miles north of Saigon
capped 24 hours of scattered but
bitter ground fighting in South
Vietnam and the second great
est American air assault of
year against North Vietnam.
Air War
U.S. spokesmen said Air
Force, Navy and Marine pilots
flew 124 missions against the
Communist country Tu^day.
Only once before this year
have the Americans flown more
missions against North Viet
nam, spokesmen said. Bad

weather usually limited the
attacks.
Tuesday’s assault by
fighter-bombers streaked in
despite still “poor" weather,
they said.
In the Central Highlands, the
two platoons of the U.S. Army
1st Air Calvary Division came
under Communist attack well
before dawn at one end of the
blood drenched An Lao Valley,
scene of bloody U.S. Communist
Jungle clashes for more than a
year.
The Communists first lobbed
in mortar shells. Then under
withering small arms and
automatic fire, the guerrillas
crawled toward the besieged
Americans.
Guerrilla grenades began
exploding Inside the U.S.
defense perimeter. Then two
Communists heaved the big
satchel charge, a sort of
handbag stuffed with explosives.
According to U.S. spokesmen,
an American staff sergeant
leaped to his feet, grabbed the
unexploded charge where it
landed and hurled it back. It
landed right between the two
men who tossed it.
Fighting slackened Tuesday
on the Jungle slopes just below
the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ)
dividing South from North
Vietnam. But South Vietnamese
Prime Minister Nguyen Cao Ky
went to a key U.S. Marine
artillery post. Stuffing photo
graphs of himself and personal
propaganda messages to the
North Vietnamese into a U.S.
shell and autographing it, he
fired it over the six-mile-wide
herder zone.
Nearby a company of the U.S.
Marine force fighting invasion
attempts by elements of at least
three North Vietnamese divi
sions found eight Communist
bodies in an area raked earlier
by American mortar fire. Later
they found seven more uni
formed North Vietnamese
bodies.

Ask Talks On
Truce Proposal
By DANIEL SOUTHERLAND
United Press International
SAIGON (UPI) —South Viet
nam has proposed discussions
with the Communist North on
terms of a truce followed by
peace talks, foreign ministry
officials disclosed today.
But Saigon rejected U.N
Secretary General Thant’s call
for a non-conditional truce,
made public Tuesday.
Saigon’s proposal for a
meeting with Hanoi was includ
ed in its reply March 19 to
Thant’s peace bid, a spokesman
said.
Hanoi has yet to reply
formally to Thant’s proposal,
but was not considered enthusi
astic in view of the fact that a
government spokesmen at
tacked the secretary general
Tuesday for making no distinc
tion between “aggressors and
the victims of aggression” In
Vietnam.
In Saigon, Foreign Minister
Tran Van Do said Thant’s
proposed standstill truce would
be too vague.
He said that first “one needs
to agree on the terms of the
truce and that is why North and
South Vietnam must meet to
talk about it.”
In a reply to Thant, South
Vietnam said, “a military truce
cannot be effective without
prior agreement on details and
control ” But it went on to say
that if North Vietnam agrees, a
South Vietnamese representa
tive could be ready for truce
lalks “within a week.”
Saigon disagrged with Thant’s
peace proposal on one other key
item.
Thant proposed that once a
truce had been arranged, preli
minary talks should be held to
discuss the terms for a peace
conference.
Sopth Vietnam, instead, pro
posed an immediate peace
conference, with no prelimina
ries.
Thant suggested the reconven
ing of the 1954 Geneva
Conference to achieve per
manent peace in Vietnam.
The 1954 talks called for an
independent and non-aligned
unified republic of Vietnam.
Thant said the new Geneva
talks should be convened “with
tile sole purpose of returning to
the essentials of that (1954)
agreement.

Highways Get
Check From Air
ATLANTA (UPI)—Aerial pho
tograph Is helping Georgia
keep tabs on the shape of its
highways, the State Highway
Department said Tuesday.
Enginieer L. W. Vemer said
an experimental survey Just
complete on 89 miles of Inter
state 75 between the Florida line
and the Crisp-Turner County
line shows maintenance checks
can be made much more quick
ly lining aerial photography.
He said engineers are training
themselves to interpret aerial
photographs so they can spot
erosioD, major damage and oth
er defects.
Using aerial photography, he
said, one man can survey eight
miles of road a day. On the
ground, it would take six men ti
cover half that distance in a
day.
