meet Southern Methodist in the Cotton Bowl at Dallas, Tex., on New

Cotton Bowl bid came from Dallas.

t Vi rhaos that is China. Chris
tian missions face one of the hard
dimmaa of our time. Shall mis
sionaries be evacuated from communist-controlled
territory or from
areas in the probable path of their
expansion?
These questions are most urgent
with hundreds of missionaries, twin
Protestant and Catholic and with
the authorities who have assigned
them to distant posts. And there is
no easy solution.
t withdraw means the surren
der of plant and largely of in
fluence, and leaves Chinese con
verts isolated in an environment
hostile to Christianity.
To remain may endanger the
safety of families, and bring to a
stop communications with the
home base and receipt of supplies,
jnaiL remittances needed for their
work.
Can Christian missions survive
In communist-controlled China? In
the past, mission progress was very
slow because of the inertia oi me
past and its odd mixture of super
stition and high philosophy which
dominated China and because of
the frequent surges of anti-foreign
sentiment. To these now may be
added the open hostility of com
munism to religion of all kinds.
Christianity has no quarrel with
communism as an economic theory.
In fact, early Christians are report
ed to have held all things in com
mon. Christianity clashes with the
Marxist application of the theory,

CHICAGO, Nov. 27-i-A spec
ial ramera sent 70,000 feet aloft in
a balloon cluster has photographed
a multl -collision of atomic par
ticles. The photograph; taken by Uni

a high energy cosmic ray particle
striking the core of an atom in the
air.- The collision created a meson
which in turn was absorbed by
another atomic core. The second
atomic core then exploded.
Marcel Schein, professor of
physics and member of the Uni

of a cosmic ray particle causing a
secondary reaction. Mesons are
believed to furnish the binding

Plan to Raise Retirement
Age Draws
By Lester F. Conr
Staff Writer, The Statesman
State Sen. Allan Carson of Salem announced Saturday he would
introduce a measure in the 1949
age for employes under the state
Carson said he decided on
complaints that many valuable
workers are being Retired against
said are irreplaceable during the
current help shortage.
The act was passed in the 1945
legislature and provides that all
state employes, public school tea
chers and employes in counties
and cities participating in the act
must be retired at the age of 63.
The law is binding on all state
offices and schools, but is optional
to counties and cities.
1,700 Retired
Jerry S. Sayler, executive-secretary
of the state retirement
board, said about 1,700 employes
have been retired under the act
since 1945. Approximately one
half of Oregon's counties are cov
ered by the measure and about
75 per cent of the cities.
Sayler defended the law as a
"sound one," but said some diffi
culty has been encountered be
cause department heads and
boards have failed to make use of
a provision which permits an em
ploye to remain on the job after
reaching 65.
The provision permits an em
ploye to work past the retirement
age for any number of one-year
periods if requests for the exten
sions from a department head
are approved each year by the
retirement board. About 400 em
ployes are now working on var
ious jobs on extensions, Sayler
said.
Loren R. White, Salem, presi
dent of the Oregon State Employes
association, said his organization
favored maintaining the 65-year
limit. He, too, said the present
law was adequate, but pointed
out that department heads were
letting needed employes go with
out using the extension provision.
Asks Limit at 68
White said the association has
already voted to extend the age
limit to 68 for the department of
higher education a center of
controversy over the measure. He
asserted that the board of higher
education has continually releas
ed college and university profes
sors who reach 65, "without mak
ing the slightest attempt to re
tain them."
"There is no reason why these
people can't work until they are
80 under the present law," White
stated. All the department heads
have to do is show a good reason
for keeping certain employes on
if they haven't a suitable re
placement. Carson aid his bill would con
tain provisions for rehiring per
sons retired under the present
law and a method of computing
their benefit payments when they
reach 70. He said these details
would be woaked out by an ac
tuary. fBooby Trap9

High School
Students to
Try Courtesy
PORTLAND. Ore.. Nov. -WP-
Portland high schoolers, tired of
all that talk about teen-age man

week. Officially, that is.
They call it "courtesy week"
and they're going to celebrate it
With propaganda posters called
make mine manners ; "do-some
thing - good - if or - someone" cam
paigns; and sign boards.
Student leaders plan talks on tne
general theme of, say, "Only a
frab behaves Hike a frab."
"Frab," they explain, is an In
version of "barf." "Barf" means to
lose your lunch. Obviously, then, a
frab" is someone who makes you
barf." Simpl? Certainly!
The "courtesy week" idea is
sponsored by the interschool coun
cil presidents and secretaries of
all Portland high school students
bodies. 1
They explained carefully that
this was no admission of bad-mannered
teen-agers. "It's not that we
think high school students are
hoodlums," emphasized Fred Mei-
kle of Jefferson high. "We just
want them to; improve as much as
possible."

Reports made to the navy depart

At 4 p.m. on Friday the crew of
a navy training plane saw that
they thought might be a periscope,
with a long trailing wake.
An analysis by the navy of the
crew's report indicated that "the
object sighted could have been a
snorkel rather than a periscope"
and that smoke near the object
probably came from an exhaust
beneath the water.
The object submerged complete

SAN FRANCISCO. Nov. 27-
A review of the presidential elec
tion ballot in Ohio, Illinois and
California has been requested by
Republican National Chairman
Hugh Scott, Jr. to determine the
possible need of 3 a recount. Na
tional Committeeman Mclntyre
Fairies said today.
The California national com
mitteeman disclosed Scott's re
quest before s? meetlnsr of the
executive committee of the Cali
fornia republican state central
committee. i
Fairies said the review won LI
be made in these states to de
termine "if the results were ia
accord with the iivote."
Although Fairies said simitar
requests had been made on GOP
party officials in Ohio and Illi
nois, leaders there said they had
not received them.
To Meet with Cosomlttee
In Chicago, however. Illinois
GOP Chairman Paul C Rosen-.
quist said he would meet with
state central committee members
to discuss the situation and prob
ably look into possible need for
a review. I
Fairies said he understood !
review of the November 2 vote,
in which President Truman car
ried California. Ohio and Illinois
by small margins, was , to deter
mine "if the results were in ac
cord with the vote. :
It seemed ' unlikely, however,
that. California republican lead-'
era would demand a recount hl
though Fairies commented: "Our
faces would be red If we found
we had the wrong president.
Votes Relatively Cl
In all three states - the cre
dential ballot was relatively close.
A reversal of the electoral vote
of the three states from Truman
to Dewey would have given
Dewey the victory! If neither can
didate obtained the required ma
jority of 260 electoral votes. ; the
outcome would be determined by
tne nouse ol representatives.
"mere is no charge or fraud.
Fairies told the republican com
mittee, "but since . there have
been some rather! large errors X
am directing all county chairmen
in California to determine first.
that there have f been no vote
frauds in their districts, and, sec-
ond, that the vote count is cor
rect with a view to considering
