Thieves entered two Sundance
firms Tuesday night and~ made
an attempt to enter a third but
failed.
Entered were Sharps' Hard-
ware where $50 in cash was tak-
en and Circle S Service where
nothing was taken. An attempt
to break into the Jack and Jill
Shop was frustrated by a barred
rear window.
Thieves entered Paul Sharps'
store by prying off a storm win-
dow and breaking a small hole
in the inside window in order
to unlock it. No merchandise
was taken from the store.
At Circle S, entrance was made
through the garage. The thieves
used a crowbar to pry open the
door between the garage and the
service station. Bob Roadifer
said there was no money at the
station and that no merchandise
appeared to be missing.
The thieves ripped a plastic
screen over a rear window at the
Jack and Jill Shop but the bar-
red window prevented them from
entering.

The Air Force representative
of the Army nuclear power plant
program told an overflow audi-
ence at Friday night's nuclear
power plant meeting here that
by March 1962 the nuclear power
plant slated for installation at
Sundance Air Force Station will
be operating as the primary
source of power at the station.
Lt. Col. Robert Cross said con-
struction of buildings on Warren
Peak will be completed this sum-
mer. He said May, 1961 is the
target date for shipping the nuc-
lear plant here.
From June to September, Col.
Cross told the audience, the plant
will be placed on foundations
and the plant will get non-nuc-
lear testing. The operational
testing of the plant will be car-
ried out from Sept. 1961 until
March 1962.
The evolution, development
and operation of the nuclear pow-
er plant was outlined by Col.
Cross.
He explained that the PM-1
plant being built by the Martin
Company to be installed here is
portable, medium - from 1,000 to
10,000 kilowatts of power - and
is the first of its kind in the
developmental series.
The plant is the pressurized
water reactor type. Col. Cross
said the plant will produce 1,000
KW electricity and 2,000 KW
heat - enough, he said, for 55
average homes each with an elec-
tric range.
He said the core in the reactor
provides full plant capacity for
two years before it has to be
changed. The fuel for the two
years, he said, would be less than
1000 lbs.

Plagued by costly fumbles, the
Sundance Bulldogs opened the
1960 pigskin campaign here Fri-
day by coming from behind to
deadlock a strong favored Vale
club, 6-6.
Ted Seeley rambled four yards
on an end sweep with two min.
utes remaining to pull the Bull-
dogs even.
Fumbles and bad passes from
center had Sundance in hot water
several times. Vale's only score
came as the result of a fumble.
The South Dakota club tallied
its lone touchdown after four
minutes had elapsed in the open-
ing period. Vale recovered a
Sundance fumble and momeatl
later, Jim Shuck, on a quarter-
back keeper, galloped 30 yardl
for the score.
The game was played mostly
between the 20-yard lines. Sun.
dance threatened in the third
quarter driving to the Vale 20
before a bad pass from center
set them back to the 40.
Coach Clarence $ore singled
out Seeley for his ball carrying
and Don Matthesen and David
Sipe for their defensive play.
The Bulldogs are idle thim
week but meet Big Horn here
Sept. 23 to open Powder River
conference play.
