Kennedy. Dinis, whose district includes Martha's Vineyard and the site of the fatal crash following a cookout July 18, announced plans for a judicial inquest last week. District Judge James A. Boyle of Edgartown Friday set the inquest date as Sept. 3.

The parents of Miss Kopechne, 28, a former campaign worker to the late Sen. Robert F. Kennedy, have said they would fight any attempt to conduct an autopsy on their daughter who is buried in Larksville, Pa. "I am not the authority in the matter." said Sunday. "The Pennsylvania, court will make about it." Miss Kopechne drowned when a car driven by Kennedy ran off a bridge on Chappaquiddick Island just off Martha's Vineyard.

Kennedy escaped and said he made several dives to rescue his passenger but was unsuccessful. 2-B The Bradenton Herald, Monday, August 11, 1969 Obituaries Lillie M. Washington Mrs. Lillie Mae Washington, 53, of 708-11th Ave. died Saturday (Aug.

Griffith-Cline Funeral Home was in charge of Your Money's Worth By Sylvia Porter The price of a single acre Houston's gigantic Astrodome ed from $20,000 to today's The price of a single around Phoenix, Arizona has, from $3 to $20,000.

The price of a single acre of land in selected areas of Southern Vermont has risen from $25 to $2,500 in just the past five years-and in some ski regions, an acre which was worth next to nothing a few years ago now brings $5,000 to $10,000. Today, fortunes, large and small, are being made in land--for surburan housing developments, vacation resorts, shopping centers, industrial plant sites and even in reclaimed swamp and desert land. What's more, a great variety of investors seems to be getting involved, from individuals, to corporations to land developers, etc. But how can you, the amateur investor, get a piece of the action in real estate now? In this and the next three columns, I'll try to give you precise guidelines. First, here's an indication of today's trends in real estate investment and the areas in which professionals have been chalking up profits: In the past two decades, the value of raw land in this country has been rising at an AVERAGE of 10 to 20 per cent a year.

Since 1950, the value of a single acre of U.S. farm land has ON AVERAGE more than tripled, and some 150,000 farms are now being sold each year. Since 1950, the average price of a homesite for a single family house has nearly tripled. And prices being paid for industrial sites have been rising on a similar scale throughout the U.S. Real estate investment and development corporations have again become glamour stocks.

According to the Studley Realty Index, published by Studley Realty Equity a New York real estate investment counseling firm, prices of 12 representative stocks in U.S. real estate corporations more than doubled in 1968, far outperforming the stock market as a whole. Foreign investors, too, are reported to be alloting an increasing share of their ment funds to U.S. real estate. of land in the vicinity of has, in one decade, rocketrange of acre of land in certain areas since the 1940s, zoomed Obviously, a great force behind the land boom is 1966- 69's inflation spiral.

Real estate is a traditional hedge against inflation and real estate values are currently climbing two or three times as rapidly as the government's Consumer Price Index. A second factor is the anticipated upsurge in the demand for housing, for vacation homes, for a "piece of the landscape." This reflects not only our growing affluence but also the approach of the decade of the young marrieds. With the babies of World War II now being married in reclord numbers and setting up homes of their own, the scramble for housing could be reaching stampede proportions by the mid-1970s. A third force is the simple shrinkage in the supply of land appropriate for development. Not only is it being gobbled up by land hungry families, corporations and investors.

It also is being absorbed by our Federal, State and local governments. These are taking over some 1 million acres each year for public uses, ranging from airports parks, health and educational institutions, post offices, military posts and other purposes. Right now, onethird of the land in our country is publicly owned. It does sense for an individual American with a nestegg you want to protect, to study the field of real estate for part of your funds. Tomorrow's column, therefore, will spell out the key advantages and disadvantages, to help you decide whether this makes sense specifically for you.

Ruskin Man, 30, Killed In Crash Harvey McGriss, 30, of Ruskin, was killed Sunday near Ruskin when his pickup truck ran off U.S. 41 and struck a utility pole. According to a report by the Florida Highway Patrol, McGriss apparently went to sleep at the wheel.

(Hudson Photo). "ONE short step by man; a great leap forward for mankind." This scribbler in the sands Anna Maria beaches probably is paraphrasing the words of Neil A. Armstrong, the Apollo astronaut who first set foot 11 on the Moon. One does NOT keep a very accruate filing system while lolling around in semi retirement and "moonlighting" a bit in the reporter writer field just to keep his hand in. But the meanings of the space conqueror's words, the core thought behind them, will remain graven, say, in memories throughout the western world.

For ages to come, let us hope. An indelible part of American folklore, of legend, tradition. Better still beacon words for world civilization in the overall, for generations to come. ALREADY human reactions, are setting in. With so much "house cleaning" to be done on earth, many can't see why we should want to go to the Moon in the first place.

Why materially litter and politically foul up another planet when we can't seem to keep our own earthly abode tidily free of wars, famines, disease; pollutions of waters we drink, the cities we build, the very we 'air breathe? Be these eminently human reactions the products of proper indignation or mere petulance, I can share them ONLY as long as I forget the admonition another American and world figure, to this keep your eyes on the stars but your feet firmly planted on the ground." AGAIN I may be paraphrasing but once again the thought is limpid. In my mind's eye and with Cape Canaveral at my back, gaze out over Bay and Gulf the furthest compass points north and east and west of nations advanced and retarded, communities well within my visual horizon, beautiful or blighted according to the yardsticks of even the most animalistic. And standing on this soil know from the soles my feet up, that the problem of making this earth fit for all humankind is still, and will be for ages come, staggering to the imaginations, skills and daring even those scientists, technologists, and other learned men who have been able to place men on the Moon, then bring them back safely to Earth. BUT I can't buy the idea that the billions spent space conquering constitutes rect or indirect bereavment programs for the betterment mankind here on earth. Financially the two proposidon't equate.

I find it difficult to believe that dollar for dollar spending as between space programs and welfare projects would of measurable value to either. The one is, as Armstrong put it, a step forward for human civilization, granted, course, that the spirit of explorers is maintained and material products of the scientific achievement are properly and channeled. Betterment of mankind, and particularly underprivileged mankind is, I would think, more a matter of spirit than of dollars, NO matter how many of these trade markers arent of deployed said for the underprivileged. advanceWith harness bought with dollars, you can lead a horse to water. But can you make him drink? Our system of government, our folkloric mores, stipulate that all should strive equal opportunity for all.
