Show King, Kennedy Linked by Dates, Destinies BOSTON (UPI) Exactly 25 years after John F. Kennedys presidency began, America is celebrating for the first time the birth of Martin Luther King Jr., who tried to open the doors of Camelot a little wider. Its a strange but very appropriate kind of coincidence because the two men had so much in common, said John Stewart, acting director of the JFK Library in Boston. On Jan. 20, 1961, Kennedy, the youngest man ever elected president, was sworn in as Americas 35th commander in chief. On Jan. 20, 1986, the nation has Ihe first federal holiday honoring King for his role as commander of the civil rights movement. Kings birthday was Jan. 15 but is being observed Monday. They were both very, very young men. They both had a vision of America and they were both cut down before they were able to find that vision, Stewart said. To mark the 25th anniversary of Kennedys inaugural, several former aides will participate in a conference at Bostons Kennedy Library on Wednesday entitled, The Inauguration of JFK: The Perspective of a Quarter Century." In his inaugural address, Kennedy charged the nation: Ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country. David Powers, who was a Kennedy aide from the day he entered national politics with his first run for Congress, watched Kennedy write three different versions of that exhortation before settling on the final phrase. It was the greatest day of my life, Powers said of the inauguration. What made that day special was that I had called him Jack for 14 years. Now he was Mr. President. You know what he said to me that first day? He said, In eleven weeks I went from senator to president and in that short space of time I inherited Laos, Cuba, Berlin and the threat of nuclear war. Richard Donahue, another close aide taking part in the library event, said the inaugural was euphoric. For most people, it was the end of an enormously long journey against almost impossible odds, he said. The joie de vivre with which he in that day did not convey the responsibilities he had taken on. In his inaugural address, Kennedy called for creation of a new world of law, where the strong are just and the weak secure and the peace preserved. ex-,alt- Pentagon Urged to Cut Waste Through Audits Will Rogers Says . . .

Time for Cognac, Roses - BALTIMORE (UPI) For the 37th straight year, a stranger clad in black clothes with a white scarf and carrying a cane Sunday quietly placed an opened bottle of cognac and three roses on the grave of Edgar Allen Poe. Sunday was the 177th anni- of the versary poets birthday, Allen Poe and the annual tribute by the stranger was in keeping with Poes words before he died at age 40, that he hoped his demise would draw little attention. No one knows who the visitor in black is, and Jeff Jerome, curator of the Poe House, doesnt want anyone to try to find out. "My theory is that this person is in his own way paying tribute to Poe, he said. It could be a writer or a poet or maybe just somebody who suffered like Poe. On the eve of each birthday, Je- rome clears the area around the 19th r. 8 century Westminster Church of revelers who gather every year for a Poe memorial, in order to give the stranger the privacy of a solitary graveside visit. Three or four people have waited the past few years to see the stranger but Jerome said they have not tried to find out who the man is. It just appears to be an elderly man in black clothes and a white scarf, carrying a cane, he said. The reason why we ever tried to get a look at the person was to show that it was not a publicity stunt or a hoax. I think we have it is someone proved our point doing it out of the kindness of his heart. If we take it any farther, the legend will die and the mystery will be gone. Poe rests in the Westminster graveyard between his aunt Maria Clemm to his right and his young bride Virginia to his left. Only five mourners followed his casket to its gravesite in Westminster cemetery on an October day in 1849, after Poe was found on a Baltimore street and died four days later. - North American history, it was an- nounced Sunday. & SAVE 143 Salt Cake $fibtnre ! gives Patrick Consalvo before taxes, in the first check arriving two weeks after the prize is claimed.

Those audits examine the efficiency of a contractors plant operation to determine whether tasks are being performed for what they "should cost.

Plane Wreck Kills 4 In Nebraska - FREMONT, Neb. (UPI) A singleengine plane crashed into the Fremont State Lakes shortly after takeoff Sunday, killing all four people aboard, the state patrol said. The plane punctured ice 6 to 8 inches thick covering water 20 feet deep, said Patrol Sgt. Larry Godfrey in Omaha, Neb. A male pilot and three female passengers were aboard, but their identities were being withheld pending notification of family, Godfrey said. One womans body broke free of the wreckage, Godfrey said, and one of the three remaining bodies has been recovered from under the wreckage by a tow truck and divers, he said. The plane departed about 6 a.m. from the Fremont Airport and may have had engine trouble before it crashed into the lakes, just west of the airport, witnesses told officials. Skies were clear at the time of the crash about 100 miles northwest of Omaha. FREE SPINAL EXAMINATION AND A GET YOUR NOW.
