John F. Kennedy, Democratic presidential will be in Cincinnati Thursday, October 8. for a lioo-a-plate party fund raising dinner, it was learned yesterday.

Kennedy's office In Washington said it was definite that tne Senator would launch his campaign in Ohio and Kentucky early in October; and confirmed the October 8 date for his visit here. The fund raising dinner will be in the Roof Oarden of the Sheraton Gibson, Democratic leaders said. At the same time, it was revealed that Sen. Lyndon B. Johnson, Kennedy's running mate, will be in Cincinnati tomorrow to address a convention session of the National Association of Letter Carriers at Music Hall.

Johnson reportedly is coming here at the Invitation of William C. Doherty. a former Clnctnnatlan and national president of the letter carriers' union. Cinclnnatlans will not get a long look at the Senate Majority Leader, however. His Washington office told local Democrats that Johnson's plane will arrive at Lunken Airport, at about 8:45 p.

that he will speak at about 9 p. m. and that his plane will leave for Washington before 10 p. m. Kennedy will come to Cincinnati after making campaign stops in Louisville, and Northern Kentucky.

He will stay here the night of October 8, and the next day will make appearances In Mlddletown, Dayton and Columbus. John A. Wiethe, Hamilton County Democratic Chairman, said Kennedy's itinerary was revealed by Kenneth OTtonnell, the Senator's appointments secretary. In addition to the $100-plate dinner, Wiethe said the organization hoped to arrange a public reception, probably following the dinner, at which Kennedy may speak or personally meet those who attend. Wiethe also hopes to arrange an hour-long television appearance for Kennedy here either a press conference or a program on which Kennedy would answer questions telephoned to the studio by the audience.

Wiethe said he hoped to have a crowd of about 1000 at the dinner, the proceeds from which will be spilt between the county, state and national Democratic committees. The formula for the split was not certain, Wiethe said. "We'll want to underwrite, our local campaign before splitting with the state and national," he commented. The Democratic chairman also said ticket subscriptions would be sought outside the Democratic organization from execu-tlves in business, industry and commerce. He said he would approach businesses and industries operating non-partisan political education programs and ask that the Democrats be permitted to solicit 8100-a-plate tickets in conjunction with those programs.

Kennedy has not been in since last September, when he opened the Democratic campaign headquarters and spoke at a luncheon attended by approximately 1000 persons. i keep doing it because I want to keep abreast of what the poor are Edward Fldler tells why he has been voluntary public defender In Police Court since 1944.

The Sl-year-old American flier was sentenced to 10 years by a three-general Soviet court. The court specified that only the first three years must be served In prison, the remainder tn so-called deprivation of liberty, normally meaning work: camp detention. First reaction In the United States generally was sorrow mingled with relief. The charge of spying on the Soviet Union could have brought a death sentence, but power's Russian pros-ecuter, emphasizing the pilot's penitence, had asked only for a 15-year prison sentence. Throughout the three-day trial in Moscow's Hall of Columns the Russians made clear they considered V.

S. policies on trial and that Powers was a pawn drawn Into the whirlpool of East -West difficulities. The United States admitted the U-2 flight after Powers' plane was brought down over the Soviet Union May 1, but President Elsenhower has rejected the Soviet contention that V. S. policies were on trial.

During his trial, the handsome dark-haired flier said he realized that he committed "a grave crime and that I must be punished." POWERS' FAMILY, In Moscow for the trial, had a tearful 75-minute reunion with the flier. Spokesmen for the Powerses said they plan to remain In Moscow as long as possible In an effort to get the sentence remitted or shortened. A family la yer said Powers was upset by tht attacks on the United States made during the trial by defense attorney Mikhail I Griniov. But he said the family Is grateful for Grlniov's defense In what was an unpopular case In Soviet eyes. The American lawyer, Frank W.

Rogers of Roanoke, Va, said the family plans an appeal to Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev and the Supreme Soviet "We are hoping that. In the name of Russia, Khrushchev will administer clemency," Rogers said. "Russia Is a great country and we hope that Russia will act like a great country and show magnanimity." Home reaction In Southwest Virginia to the sentence was summed up with the report that "some good people were reliever and others sorry he didnt get off scot free but it's about what most people expected." That summary was given by William Hendrick, acting editor of the weekly Coalfield Progress near the Powers home at Pound, Va. The sentence given Powers was a third of that received in the United States by Col.

President Elsenhower regretted today the "severity" of the 10-year sentence Imposed on U-J pilot Francis Gary Powers by the Soviet Union. Sen.

John F. Kennedy, Democratic presidential nominee, described the sentence as "extremely harsh particularly when it Is clear from the testimony that he (Powers) was only carrying out his duty." hope we all, led by the President use our influence to help (Powers)," Kennedy added. Be said in response to a question that the U-2 affair is not a campaign issue. Sen. J.

William Fulbrlght Ark), chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee which Investigated the U-2 Incident, said he thought the sentence was "fairly lenient" for an espionage case. Aside from Elsenhower's statement, administration officials generally were silent on the outcome of the Moscow show trial. Their restraint apparently was due to two factors. U. S.

The satellite, fired Thursday from Vandenburg Air Force Base, Calif, ejected the payload on its 17th circle 118 to 502 miles above the earth.

The Jubilant crew of the history-making C119 landed at 8:45 p. m. (EST) at Hicham air force base with the space capsule tucked safely In a metal container. A trapeze-like hook, dangling from the belly of the plane, snagged the shrouds of the capsule's parachute. The plane's eaptaln, Harold E.

WHEN EJECTED, the payload first plunged through the atmosphere like a comet Ten CI 19 Flying Boxcara trailing huge trapeses circled high over the assigned recovery srea. They and a Navy ship in the drop zone picked up the descending capsule on their radar screens, and computers helped them predict Its course. The weather favored them. There was a clear sky high over the 80 by 200 mile recovery strip south of Hawaii, with scattered clouds below at elevations of 2000 to 7000 feet.

SKEPTICS had called lt a fool's dream that an airplane could catch an object parachuting from space. But the Air Force crews were confident in spite of earlier failures. As soon as he heard of the successful air catch, Oen. Thomas D. White, Air Force chief of staff, authorized the award of the distinguished Flying Cross to the commander of the recovery plane, and aif medals to all members of the crew.

It was the second time in eight days that a space capsule was recovered after having been in orbit around the earth. Clouds prevented airplanes from catching the capsule of Discoverer XII when It plunged earthward August 11 after a similar 11-orblt flight. It was recovered from the Before last week there had been six failures in attempts to recover Discoverer capsules. Some of the capsules failed to separate from the mother satellite on command, or had been ejected on a wrong course. Discoverer XTV was launched into its polar orbit from Vandenberg at 12:57 p.

BY JIM OTT Enquirer Reporter A rugged, 88-year-old Kentucklan, lost for nearly five days In a densely wooded area near Elsmere, was found early yesterday, sunburned, ragged and suffering from malnutrition but alive. George McKee. a native of Fleming County hill country, was lost in a six-mile square patch of woods and survived on apples and creek water five miles from his home.

He was in fair condition last night at St. Elizabeth Hospital, Covington, where doctors said he was "dehydrated and suffering from malnutrition." But the aged man said: "I'm feeling pretty well now." A search party, led by a bloodhound dog-team, came upon the tall, gaunt figure at 9:20 a. m. after following his 10-mlle trail for nearly three hours, Elsmere Police Chief Ray Herrmann, leader of the party, reported. McKEE'S FIRST words were: "Am I glad to see you!" and "do you have any water?" McKee wandered off into the woods Sunday night to "sulk" after a minor family argument over whether he should go to bed while company was at the house, 1245 Garvey Elsmere, relatives said.

"I got lost and they had to come a-hunting for me," McKee summed up his plight at the hospital. "It's the second time. "I spent all those nights and days out there. I was all over those woods trying to get out. And I would say to myself: Is this the way? "I was worried all the time.
