Fernandez flew an F100 from Victorville, to Oklahoma City. Ricks Trophy Race The Ricks Memorial Trophy flight today also ended at Andrews. The winner of this mile flight from Fresno, was Maj.

Peter R. Phillipy, 35, of Pittsburgh. Phillipy, commander of the 112th Fighter Interceptor -Group of the Air National Guard at Corapolis, made the trip in 4 hours, 13 minutes and 40 seconds of flying time for an average of 638 miles an hour. The race was limited to Republic F84F jet fighters. Phillipy and the nine other National Guard contestants who finished refueled on the ground at Tucson, Dallas, and Marietta, Ga.

The 30 minutes stops at each refueling stationing were not counted in the overall time. The Bendix -and the Ricks air races were highlights of a colorful show sponsored by the Air Force Association in a salute to the 50th anniversary of the U. S. Air Force. Crowd of 75,000 A crowd nestimated by the Air Force at 75,000 witnessed the first public flight of the spectacular Ryan X13 vertijet -a jet airplane which takes off and lands vertically--and the first public flight of the Republic F105 supersonic fighter-bomber.

The X13 proved to be fairly conventional in truck appearance raised it until on end and suspended it by its nose, with its tail about four feet off the ground, from a supporting cable. Pilot Peter Girard started the engine and as he got to full power, disengaged from the hook and backed the plane, still standing on end, away slowly, climbed to perhaps 20 feet, then gently eased it over into almost level position and flew away. 1. Tilts Plane On End Girard flew the plane past the applauding crowd at high speed, then tilted it on end and came dancing in for a slow, steady approach almost in standing-up position again. Carefully he hooked the nose of the plane on its "clothes turned off the and left the craft suspended there.

The Air Force ordered the plane built as part of a program to develop aircraft which need no runways either for takeoff or landing. F105 Thunderchief, described by its manufacturer as the world's most powerful fighterbomber, took off "under wraps," the Air Force said. This meant that the pilot, Lindell Hendrix, made sure the plane was moving so fast when it passed in front of the crowd on takeoff that its details could not be observed. After demonstrating the plane's spectacular rate of climb and speed, Hendrix flew the plane in a thundering salute past the reviewing stand, then headed it for.

Logan, 11, and his year-old brother, John, of nearby Stoughton. The motive for the crime was not explained. Police said the vital organs are undergoing state laboratory tests to determine if the boys were molested. Wright said that although Ohlson made no formal statement admitting the crime, he related forcing the youths at knifepoint to the spot where 'the bodies were found. A set of house keys found beneath the bodies led to Ohlson's arrest after some 50 suspects were screened, police said.

Similar Crime Clue The similarity of the crime to an attack half a dozen years ago upon another young boy, in the same park, also pointed to Ohlson, Wright related. Police records show that in 1951, Ohlson, then 14. was sentenced to 10 years in Concord Reformatory for an attack upon a Brockton boy. The victim was sexually assaulted, stabbed and almost dismembered but: survived.

Police quoted Ohlson as saying he' removed the boys'. swim trunks and hid them in bushes behind a billboard a short distance from his home. Detectives said Ohlson led them to the spot and the trunks were recovered. Knife Under Pillow When police took him into custody about 1 a. today, they said they found a Mexican huntrife with einght inch blade under his pillow.

The knife blade bore an inscription in Spanish, "I Ohlson was scheduled to appear in Brockton District Court tomorrow morning. Police said Ohlson appeared almost indifferent during the continuous grilling by state and local detectives. They reported his blue eyes betrayed little emotion. During one lull in the questioning, the 5 foot 6 Ohlson, who weighs about 130 pounds, dozed in a chair. Meanwhile, state laboratory technicians analyzed three pieces of evidence in the brutal crime.

the vital organs, the hunting knife, believed by police to be the murder weapon, and Ohlson's stained clothing for possible evidence of blood. Each Boy Stabbed Dr. Charles Kane, medical examiner, said each boy was stabbed five or six times. He said had not been determined if they were alive when their slayer set fire to branches covering their bodies. The boys were reported missing Friday afternoon when their father, Jean L.

Logan, an industrial engineer, was unable to find them at the pool. Their clothing, lunches and money were found at the edge of the pool, leading seachers to think they had drowned. Performance Continued From Page 1 Morgans owned by Mr. and Mrs. E.

It wasn't until she reached "My Man' in her program that Miss Holiday displayed something of the great singing for which she is famous. Her tone, delivery and unique phrasing wove a spell that is achieved by true artistry. Miss Holiday was accompanied by Mal Waldron, pianist, who interprets her moods as as does the singer herself.

cross-section of American music who seldom go near an ordinary concert hall. Among those present yesterday, besides Monteux and the Boston Symphony Orchestra, were insky, Melchior, Bach, Brahms, Mozart and their families. That's Harold Stravinsky, who runs delicatessen in Manhattan; Ludwig Melchior, who is a truck dispatcher from Brooklyn; Benny Bach, George Brahms and HerMozart, who are partners in a bowling alley in Bayonne, N. and drove all the way up here. Two Ways to Go There are two ways to 80.

to Tanglewood concerts. You can buy a reserved seat and sit under the shed or you can go the way Harold, Ludwig, Benny, George and Herman go. They pay $2 and rest on the in whatever posture they choose and Harold's wife, for example, can choose some lulus. The cost per concert is lower this way, but the capital outlay is likely to be steep. Take the Harold Stravinskys.

Harold's Tanglewood concert clothes -his striped Bermuda shorts, matching striped shirt, duckbill cap and flip-up smoked glasses--cost a pretty penny and just the start. wife two daughters The Stravinsky his and little Harold, Jr. -arrived yesterday with the inflatable rubber surf boards that renose popular this season among who like to listen from a prone position. These they spread out on a 6-by-8 alpaca pile rug, big enough for the whole family, and there was still room for a portable ice five-gallon thermos of refreshments and a picnic basket. Little Harold Quiet The Stravinskys had just stretched and gotten little Harold quiet when Monteux took the Boston Symphony into the second of three excerpts from Berlioz' dramatic symphony, "Romeo and This lively part of the symphony is generally "Queen Mab, the Fairy of but at Tanglewood is known as "'The Children's Sure after a few trumpet blasts, little Harold Stravinsky, who was almost asleep, sat bolt upright and began bawling.

Big Harold and Gladys tried everything to get him quiet again, but it was no use. Everyone Glowers "I'm awfully said big Harold, turning around everybody with this frantic, smile. Everybody glowered "I'm going to put him in the ice chest," said big Harold, as little Harold's screams became horrible. "You are not," said Gladys. "It will make the beer warm." Finally, of course, they were forced to march back to the parking lot, lugging their inflated surf boards, the alpaca pile rug, the ice chest, the thermos jug, and the picnic basket, with Berlioz in the background and little Harold in the foreground.

Scores of other families were retreating the same way, so the Stravinskys did not feel so bad. "Honestly, said George Brahms to his friends Benny and Herman and their wives, "you'd think people would have better sense than to bring children to a concert. Why do they let people like that in here?" By this time, Monteux had taken the Boston Symphony into the third excerpt from "Romeo and Juliet." This part is often called "Romeo Alone," but is known at Tanglewood as the "f.16, double-X, panchromatic over. ture." Sure enough, George Brahms had brought along his camera. He had sprawled out in a very uncomfortable position and one leg was cramped, and he decided to stand up and snap a few pictures of Benny, Herman and the wives.

in Closer "Hey, said George in that whisper of his, "move in closer, so I can get everybody in the picture." "Sh-h-h-h-h!" came voices from all sides. "Wanna make something of it?" said George, picking out the oldest and most decrepit-looking shusher he could find. This fellow didn't want to make anything it, but George's wife, Maureen, did.
