The new findings open a whole new range of possibilities relating to Begner's fate. They perhaps may result in the reopening of the air searches.

Begner, 60, an accomplished pilot, had been flying to Mexico on his summer vacations for nearly 20 years. He was commander of Chicago's Jefferson Park police district when he disappeared.

Begner, who disappeared four months ago on a private plane flight to Mexico, had landed at Reynosa airport and filed a Mexican flight plan the day he was last seenT' That was on March 4 when Begner flew from the airport at McAllen, 12 miles north of the Reynosa airport. Records at the Reynosa air terminal show that Begner was flying his Cessna 210 plane, N4932U, and was alone, both when he landed here at 9:41 a. m. March 4 and when he departed 65 minutes later. Mazatlan Plans Told SAESA Airline, which operates the Reynosa field and tower for the Mexican government, said Begner planned to fly direct to Mazatlan, in the state of Sinaloa on Mexico's west coast.

This is the first positive clew to his intentions since his failure to return from Mexico was reported in Chicago March 17. Mexican authorities said the air detail division of the border patrol at Yuma, received the' report on Begner's landing and flight plan months ago. None of this information, however, was given to members of Begner's family in Chicago, nor was it shared with the United States air force air rescue service. The air rescue squadrons from north of the border flew more than 200 hours in four huge aircraft for 10 days, starting March 19, in an aimless effort to find wreckage of the light plane. Search Cost $250,000 If the air force had been notified of Begner's proposed routing, the search could have concentrated upon this section of Mexico's rugged and mountainous terrain.

In the search, during which there was widespread public appeal for any clew as to Begner's destination, the air force spent of public funds. Significance of this new information is twofold. Primarily it indicates for the first time the probable track Begner intended to fly. Previous information was vague. It also indicates that Begner followed the rules for "checking into Mexico and filing a Mexican flight plan," as one of the Reynosa towermen said.

Landed at 1st Field It had been assumed that Begner intended to overfly Mexico until his landing at Mazatlan, which is an official port of entry. Technically this would be permissible, but Mexican authorities prefer to have incoming private planes land at the first available airport and report to Mexican customs, at all surprised by the crew's manner. "This particular crew is just not talkative," said Clifford E. Charlesworth, a NASA flight director. "I've worked with this group before.

They're just not big talkers." Private Talks Possible Reporters asked Charles-worth if perhaps NASA had been upset by the wise-cracking antics of previous astronauts and put its foot down. "No." he said. Altho they have not talked much to ground personnel, it is possible that the three have been talking among themselves. They can do so without eavesdropping by ground controlers by their private intercom system. Charlesworth said he "wouldn't hazard a guess" on how much private talk is going on.

Bruce McCandless, who as a "capsule communicator'' is one of the few direct voice links between mission control and the spacecraft, agreed with Charlesworth. Teacher Writes Senator Full Bosom Forces a Strip for Customs Washington, July 17 flJPD An English teacher wants to know if all full-bosomed women are forced to strip to the waist by United States customs officials. She made her inquiry to Sen. Sam J. Ervin Jr.

N. after experiencing the ordeal when she landed recently at Dulles airport near Washington on her return from a European trip. In relating the incident, Ervin said the woman, whom he would not identify, was taken to an office by two women officials because someone thought she looked like she might have something concealed beneath her blouse. She was then told to take off her jacket, blouse, and underclothes. "Are all full-bosomed women to be subjected to this sort of indignity?" she asked in her letter to Ervin.

"Being singled out solely because of one's physical structure, taken aside and asked to undress, constitutes an indignity I find peculiarly offensive." Ervin agreed. In a letter to Treasury-Secretary David M. Kennedy he said, "For myself, I would rather see one smuggler escape rather than have 100 American travelers stripped and searched on the mere suspicion they might be trying to smuggle something thru customs."

S. Spy Base Lease ALWAYS FIRST QUALITY Expires in Pakistan Towncraff Penn-Presf slacks of DacronVworsted that never, ever need ironing! KARACHI, Pakistan, July 17 Reuters The lease on an electronic "spy base" near Peshawar in northwest Pakistan were secret soviet communications were monitored for United States intelligence expired today. Pakistan decided not to renew the lease, because it regarded it as inconsistent with its friendship with the Soviet Union and China. "They're just a quiet crew," he said. Interest in what Armstrong will say on first setting foot on the moon has been high, and Charlesworth was asked to speculate on it.

Memorable Line Unlikely "I will expect that he will call Houston to say that he's landed," said Charlesworth. Astronaut Aldrin's wife, Joan, also talked about the quietness of the Apollo 11 crew. Apollo 10, she said, is "a hard act to follow." That flight was highlighted by space "chatter." At one point during the day, the astronauts explained that they were not answering mission control right away because they were eating. It was a meal of salmon salad, and they paid their "compliments to the chef." At mission control, it sounded as if there were music with the meal, and the capsule communicator asked, "Is that music I hear in the background?" The spacecraft reply: "Buzz Aldrin is singing." The nest words were, "Pass the sausage, man." Men of few, but very human and understandable, words. U.

Virgil Grissom, Lt. Comdr. Roger B. Chaffee, and Lt. Col.

Edward H. White. The three astronauts had had medals struck which they planned to take along on their 14-day earth orbital mission and bring back for their families. Now the medals will go to the moon and back. "There is no national boundary to courage," the President said.

"The names of Gagarin and Komarov, of Grissom, White, and Chaffee, share the honor we pray will come to Armstrong, Aldrin, and Collins." Neil Armstrong, Edwin Aldrin, and Michael Collins are the Apollo 11 crew. The President told the plans for the medals at a ceremony honoring Gen. John P. McCon-nell, retiring chief of staff of the air force. The President observed that McConnell's military career began the year after Charles Lindbergh flew the Atlantic and ended "as man now makes the great breakthru of going to the moon." McConnell was given the distinguished service medal.

said in a statement. "Their achievement will be the world's achievement. It is fitting, therefore, that the first lunar explorers carry with them some recognition of the sacrifice made by other space pioneers who helped to blaze their trail." The Russians were Vladimir M. Komarov and Yuri Gagarin. Relayed by Borman Komarov was killed April 24, 1967, when parachute lines tangled during reentry and his spacecraft plunged to earth.

Gagarin, who became the first man to fly in space when he made one orbit of the earth in 1961, died on March 27, 1968, while testing a new soviet aircraft. The President, who made the announcement in the White House rose garden, said widows of the two soviet space heroes gave the medals to Col. Frank Borman during his recent Russian visit and asked that they be left on the moon. Borman was commander of the Apollo 8 flight. The gold medals, larger than an American silver dollar, were awarded Komarov and Gagarin posthumously by the soviet government.
