MOULLE United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON (UP)—President Eisenhower hurried into the White House air raid shelter today to take refuge from a fleet of imminent atomic bombers attacking United States in the biggest defense drill since World War II.

He was joined there by Mrs. Eisenhower. Times Square Cleared The chief executive and rank members of his staff have worked quarters in the shelter. During a drill, they worked at their desks and tested telephone, teletype and short wave radio facilities linking the shelter with the outside world. Simultaneously, civil defender workers in New York set a record by clearing Times Square within 70 seconds after the siren sounded. The operation, in which some 3000 persons were directed into shelters, was carried out 30 seconds less time than was required at the last civil defense test.

Two Believed Drowned in Sinking; Stunt Man Swims 10 Miles to Shore LOS ANGELES (UP) — An ex-lifeguard told today how he survived the sinking of a power cruiser, in which two other men were believed drowned, by swimming 10 miles through heavy seas to Catalina Island. The survivor, Paul Stader, 43, also a movie stunt man, stumbled ashore at Catalina's Emerald Bay after almost 21 hours in the water, gasped "My buddies are out there. Go get them!" He then collapsed from exhaustion. The Coast Guard launched an immediate search for the two missing men who were aboard the 18-foot Tinker Toy IV with Stader when the boat sank Saturday 10 miles off the island in Catalina Channel. Missing were Hugo Walters, 31, another movie stunt man and ex-lifeguard, and Don McGuire, 27, Hollywood. Coast Guard cutters located the sinking scene, finding a pair of Stader's water skis and a cushion from the ill-fated craft. Stader wore a pair of swimming fins on his feet and diving goggles, without which, a Coast Guard spokesman said, "he probably never could have made it at all." "But even with that equipment, it was somewhat of a miracle," the spokesman said. "The seas were pretty rough and he was fighting a strong current." Stader said he, Walters and McGuire all started out for land on floating cushions from the boat, which they had tied together. But they moved so slowly, Stader said, that each man decided to take out for himself.

Forces that toppled Premier Josan invitation from President Rene Coty to form a Cabinet. The new premier-designate immediately began talks with political leaders to get the necessary support for confirmation from the badly-divided National Assembly, which voted no confidence in Lancel for his Indochina policies. If the 47-year-old Radical Socialist leader fails, France once again faces the possibility of a long period without a government which could mean a death blow to the Geneva conference. The last Cabnet crisis before Laniel's appointment nearly a year ago lasted 36 days, during which Mendes-France was among those who tried and failed to form a government. Observers doubted that MendesFrance could win the support of the Assembly's warring political actions despite the urgency for agreeing on a new leader quickly. His drastic cures for the country's troubles have earned him many appoints. Mendes-France got a crack at the post under the custom that prescribes the chief opponent of a allen premier gets the first opponunity to try to succeed him. Weather Clear today through Tuesday but some early morning cloudiness. Warmer this afternoon, with high temperatures near 74.
