Copper Strike
Threat Grows
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The probability of a strike in the
nation's copper and other non
ferrous molals industry grew
stronger Wednesday. .
Denver headquarters of the In
ternational Union of Mine, Mill
and Smelter Workers (Ind) an
nounced its Wage Policy Commit
tee has authorized union officials
to call a strike Friday if they so
elect
Meanwhile, negotiations between
union officials and representatives
of the "Big Four" copper produc
ing companies continued.
The union said its officials will
decide whether any contracts
should be extended beyond the Fri
day deadline.
"Consideration will be given to
the progress of negotiations in each
company up to the June 30 mid
night contract termination hour,"
the statement said.
M i n e-Mill officials estimated
that 50,000 to 60,000 workers would
be involved in a strike call. If
strike action is taken, it would be
effective with the start of the day
shift Friday. This varies in dif
ferent sections.
The CIO expelled the Mine-Mill
Union in 1950, charging its officers
were Communist-dominated.
Nationalists Clamoring
To Bomb Bases Of Reds
TAIPEI. Formosa Wi A Na
tionalist Chinese clamor to bomb
Communist air bases along the
mainland coast developed here
Wednesday.
The English-language China
News said Nationalist air force pi
lots were fretful because they are
restrained from blasting the bases
opposite Formosa.
Presumably it was from the
newest and biggest of these bases
that the Reds launched attacks
bv Sov'ct-built MIGs on Monday.
The MIGs shot down a Nationalist
jet plane and damaged a civilian
flying boat.
The Hsin Sheng Pao, mouthpiece
of the Formosa provincial govern
ment, urged the Nationalist md
American air forces to "desirov
the enemy's seaboard air bases."
Several papers said Mondav's
attack signaled a possibly early
invasion of the offshore islands.
The Central Daily News said pre
parations for the invasion were
about completed.
Attacks took place near Malsii,
the northernmost of the islands
lying close to the Red China coast.

Winston Burdett
Admits Former
Communist Ties
WASHINGTON ! Winston M.
Burdett, now a Columbia Broad
casting System newsman, told Sen
ate investigators Wednesday he
went to Finland during the Russo
Finnish War to spy for the Com
munists. Burdett said that for half a dozen
years he had been "a devoted and
dedicated member of the Commu
nist Party."
He said he joined while he was
working for the now-defunct Brook
lyn Daily Eagle and did his spy
work while he was on that paper's
staff.
Burdett said he broke with the
party in 1942.
CBS got out a statement saying
it is convinced this is true and that
it has no intention of firing Bur
dett. Burdett, a curly-haired hand
some young man in his late thir
ties, told the Senate Internal Se
curity subcommittee he joined the
Communist Party while working
with the Eagle in 1937.
He said "it had a very great
appeal to me. I was not a casual
member. I was a very devoted
member, young, enthusiastic and
very earnest."
Burdett said he made a clean
breast of his past to the FBI in
1951 and that he elected voluntar
ily to go before the Internal Se
curity subcommittee.

'Kiss Me Kate' Is Crowd
Pleaser; Gordon Howard's
Performance Outstanding
By LAURA OLSON
Staff Writer, Ntwi-Riview
Roseburg likes "Kiss Me Kate."
More than 500 persons watched
a vibrant troupe of University of
Oregon players -"belt out" a laud
able version of the Spewack-Port-er
musical comedy Tuesday night.
It was the biggest crowd yet to
view a Kiwanis Summer Theater
production.
Playing on a stage smaller than
they were used to (even though
Central Junior High School's au
ditorium stage was extended by
several feet), the young and Happy
students genuinely wowed their
audience.
Gordon Howard of Tenmile was
the real star of the show. The
young man with the cannon voice
led his fellow players with skill
and understanding. The exacting
singing-speaking performance re
quired of Howard in the nearly
three-hour production was carried
out with seemingly tireless effort.
The' "Kiss Me Kate" plot con
cerns a play within a play and
tells the story of a troupe of per
formers who are presenting a mu
sical version of William Shake
spear's "Taming of the Shrew."
In a plot complicated to explain,
but simple to view, Howard (as
director Fred Graham and Pet
ruchio in the "Shrew") tames the
fiery Kate and rewins his former
wife Lilli Vanessi (both played by
Mary Lou Teague, Miss Oregon of
1952).
Through this lively plot stroll
singers, dancers, - diplomats and
two of the most charming gang
sters ever created.
Billed only as First Man and
Second Man, Tom Gaines and Bob
Chambers literally walked into
the hearts of their audience.
Gaines was major spokesmen for
the two who sought to collect an
erroneous gambling debt from
Howard. With deft humor Cole
Porter has placed them in his play
and also smuggled the two into
Shakespeare. They are welcome
additions and their "Brush Up
Your Shakespeare" was Rose
burg's favorite number last eve
ning, w
FaMi nf tho 97 Tin nlavoro AX
serves mention. But special note
must go to lively Gloria Lee cast
as Lois Lane-Bianca who earlier
this year won the UO award as
"best supporting actress" for her
performance. Miss Lee appeared

Dancing and choregraphy for
