Concerning the letter of John R. Stevenson of Yoder, Wyo.-by all means, no Kennedy for President. He is a Catholic, and all Catholics are bad. His grandfather was a saloonkeeper, and they are all bad. He comes from a town where 99.9999% of the folks have never heard of Yoder, Wyo. Man! That's real...

Simultaneously, the Defense Department announced plans to build a 65-million-dollar missile site near Cheyenne, Wyo, apparently to launch 5000-mile American intercontinental ballistic missiles when such devices are ready. Dr. John Hagen, director of Project Vanguard, also told reporters that his scientists expect to put a sin-inch test satellite into orbit next month, and to follow it with a fully instrumented, 20-inch sphere in March.

Wearing the hard hat and leather belt of a lineman, Wyoming's Republican Senator Frank A. Barrett stepped up to a control panel in Casper, Wyo. last week. There he threw a switch inaugurating the biggest power transmission project in the history of his state, a 251-mile-long line linking Casper with Billings, Mont. At Billings the $7,200,000 line of the Pacific Power & Light Co. hooks into the big Pacific Northwest power pool. Next year the line will be extended from Casper to nearby Glenrock, Wyo., to link up a $23 million steam electric plant which...
