KOREA: A Hot W ar The cold war, which has caused one crisis after another in recent months, had flamed into a hot war on one front. Soviet sponsored arm ies of North Korea invaded South Korea, established by the United Nations with the blessing and aid of the United States. First reports of the attack were confused. It was knowm, however, that the invaders advanced as much as 12 miles into South Korea by using ground forces totaling as many as 40,000 men, plus 90 tanks. An additional 10,000 men were be lieved ready to reinforce the in vaders.

ERICKSON: The worst commercial airline tragedy in the nation's history took place in Lake Michigan of .St Joseph, Mich., when a Northwest Airlines plane plunged into the lake during a severe thunderstorm with 55 passengers and three crew mem bers aboard. Two days after the giant craft disappeared, parts of the plane, a section of an airplane log book, and parts of two bodies were dragged from the lake. The plane, filled to capacity, van ished on a flight from New York to Seattle by way of Minneapolis. St. Joseph Is about 110 miles southeast of Milwaukee on the east ern shore of Lake Michigan.

There are many, many anglers throughout this great nation whose annual pursuit of the finny denizens is carried on under a pall which impairs its enjoyment and ofttimes is mysterious in nature to those it enshrouds. For these gentlemen are of that lonely fraternity who are unable to keep a fishing partner for any length of time. Time and time again they are invited out by this or that ang ler of the neighborhood—some of them their very best friends but, oddly enough, they are seldom in vited twice by the same friend. Why? As has been said, the angler in question may never know why, for the offense which imposes the iso lation is similar to that afflication about which “his best friend won’t tell him.” The offense is simply bad stream or lake manners. To the uninitiate, this might seem like an insignificant item to become bothered about— but ask any of the angling fraternity and you'll find almost one and aJl branding it as the cardinal sin among fishermen. It would be difficult to list the ex amples of bad angling manners in the order of their undesirability, for the gravity of an offense may vary with the type of angler experiencing it. But it would be fairly safe to say that close to the top would be the offense of trying to hog a likely- looking fishing spot, or rubbing it in on a partner whose luck hasn’t been too good. Where is the angler of any experi ence who has not encountered that partner who casually takes all the best of it when in a boat with others? This is the offender who shirks his share of the paddling or motor care, whose sole aim is to cast just as fast as he can, and who is always trying to get his lure into the best looking spots, no matter where he is sitting in the boat. Then there is the johnny-come- lately to the fishing sport who will come splashing through your best pool, determined to get his lure in the water as close to yours as pos sible. The almost irresistible urge to commit mayhem on this specimen of angling aggravation would be un derstandable to any judge in the land if the jurist was, or ever had been, a fisherman. The list could go on and on—but the point to be made here is that vet eran anglers who know better than to commit such offenses shouldn’t smoulder in silence when a fishing partner commits them. Instead, they should stop all activity at the mo ment of offense and gently but firm ly instruct the offender in the proper conduct. At first, this may cause some strained relations or even an occa sional black eye; but it will be worth it. The angler admonished will come to see the wisdom of the admonition, and the teacher, while he may never reap himself the re sults of the instruction, will be per forming a real service for some ang ling brother in the future.

The 42nd annual governors’ conference got underway at White Sulphur Springs, W. Va., with talks on reorganization of state governments and water power development. The Communist issue dominated conversation outside the meeting hall. Governors James Duff of Pennsylvania and Earl Warren of California, two top-ranking Republleans among the more than 40 governors attending the conference, voiced blunt disapproval of what they termed the “ blanket” accusation of Senator McCarthy of Wisconsin. Among outstanding speakers the governors heard Secretary of State Dean Achcson who submitted to a barrage of questions In reply to which he stoutly defended the state de partment as an honest, loyal, clean outfit.
