Hugh Edwards. the English sidp- per; French engineer Henri Ber- gez and Danish seamen Jens Niel- sen were picked up Sunday by the Italian vssscl Ernesto laoni off the south coast of Sicily.

The men had been drifting in the area since last Tuesday when their 25-ton British yacht. Tslfun. foundered. Food and water sup- plies were swept off the life-raft right after it was launched from the sinking Talfiin. shortly after- ward. anotlier huge wave washed Nielsen and an Algerian deckhsnd overboard. The dcckband was drowned.

Word of the lectures was con- talncd in The Orenda. house or- gan of the suburban Melton flrrn whose Orenda jet engine powers the RCAFis CF-100 interceptor. The announcement said 56 appli- cations to attend the lectures have been filed.

A spokesman said security laws prevented him from commenting one way or the other on nuclear Gllkinea. The ' put to him was: "Gan Orenda say without qualification that the lectures do not indicate a planned move into the field of atomic powered planes?"
