This lad from the Midwest, hit the center of a floating hoop 75 feet away smack in the center, and marvel of marvels cast along the surface of the pool a technique to use when there were bushes one could not cast over the fly keeping on a level line about a foot from the surface (perhaps it was a plug not a fly, come to think of it). Needless to say, there were trained seals their "savee" never ceases to mystify this department but never before have we seen trained pelicans and penguins. The pelican flew from a perch in the gallery down to the stage, with all the grace of a clothes horse thrown out of a tenth-story window. Then went through his stunts awkwardly, but went through them like Dr. John son's dancing bear, the wonder was not that he danced so well, but that he could dance AT ALL! There followed a race between a penguin and a seal under water. The penguin won in fact, made a monkey out of his larger opponent seals are amazingly swift under water and graceful too, but this penguin was simply a STREAK the announcer claimed penguins can average 75 miles an hour SUBMERGED and after seeing this flashing bird togged out in his dress shirt and tails we can belies a 1.

Your correspondent has seen them all but "Death of a Sales man" and "Quo Vadis" the former because we have never had a chance, the latter because no one could drag us into it. We would have placed "Bright Victory" first; "Born Yester day," second; "The Blue Veil" (not listed), third; "A Place in the Sun," fourth; "Street Car," fifth; "Detective Story," sixth; and the others "also-rans." We couldn't be persuaded to see ANY of them again. "An American in Paris" was too-much-Kelly for us. "The Great Caruso" would have made the original great tenor turn in his grave. (Or so the M.T. movie-critic-emeritus be lieves.) Far above any of them would be British movies like "Quar tette" and "The Browning Version,' in this department's list , Speaking of merit-ratings, we see that over 100 political sci entists in the country, after a special study of the U. S. Senate, rate the first ten Senators out of the 96 as follows: 1. Paul Douglas, Illinois. 2. Estes Kefauver, Tenn. 3. Wayne Morse. Oregon. 4. Herbert Lehman. New York. 5. J. William Fnlbright. Arkansas. 8. Margaret Chase Smith, Me. 7. Henry Cabot Lodge Jr.. Mass. 8. George Aiken, Vt. 9. Leverett Saltonstall, Mass. 10. Brian MeMahon, Conn.

Cain. Wash. 7. Geo. W. Malone. Nev. - 8. Kenneth McKellar, Tenn. 9. Win. E. Jenner, Ind. 10. Joseph R. McCarthy. Wis. We doubt if there could be a where. It should be noted, en passant, that the men who handed down this just and discriminating verdict were of both major parties, were experts in the political realm, and based their judg ments on a careful and intensive study of the records of every member. To return to the Sportsmans Show (loud applause from the "other side of the aisle!"), we forgot the dogs one of the most refreshing items on the afternoon agenda. Not only did the dogs go through their drills perfectly, but they retrieved LIVE ducks and as far as could be observed, the SPCA had no cause for complaint. The ducks got the short end of it all were hobbled but one but were returned to wear, apparently. One of the dogs a Chesapeake Retriever jumped off a diving tower and without apparent injury to either. . All of them returned to their master, offered up the bird courteously BEFORE shaking off the water.

Anything I can bring you from the kitchen when I've finished with him?" Matter of Fact THE CASE OF ESTES KEFAUVER Manchester, N. H. With the absolutely unbelievable energy which is the hallmark of the American poli tician, Sen. Es tes Kefauver is striding through the snow piled main streets of i n n u merable New Hamp shire small towns; earnest 1 y addressing sparse audi- otewari Aisop ences in in numerable overheated halls; and otherwise conscientiously per forming all the ritual functions of a candidate for the American Presidency. Yet the whole per formance is an oddly empty gesture. For Kefauver himself no longer really expects any sub stantial political reward, here in New Hampshire, for the im mense energy he is expending. And on the national scene, if Kefauver really believes that he has a chance to be his party's presidential choice, he is almost alone in this belief. Yet the case of Estes Kefauver, an able, hon orable, but too ambitious man, is worth considering all the same. For it tells a good deal about the way American poli tics, and especially Democratic party politics, works. What has been happening to Kefauver here in New Hamp shire is a forewarning of what is virtually certain to happen to the Kefauver candidacy nation ally. When Kefauver announced that he would enter a slate of delegates in the New Hampshire primary, he in effect slapped the New Hampshire regular Demo cratic organization right in the face. For if Kefauver had had his way, this would have meant that the regular organization del egate slate, headed by -aggres sive, fast-talking National Com mitteman Emmett Kelley, would not even have been able to go to the Chicago convention. TuTUS the Democratic regulars were threatened with public humiliation and disgrace. In or der to avoid this, President Tru man was persuaded by former Navy Secretary John Sullivan, acting as a Kelley emissary, to retract his famous "eyewash" statement and enter the New Hampshire primary. Before he consented to do so, Truman was promised that he would win hands down, and that Kefauver would be taught a lesson. While Kefauver talks simply, sincerely, and it must be added, rather dully, in the oven-ike town halls, his lesson is being prepared for him. He is given an outside chance- of capturing just one delegate but only a very outside chance. Kelley pre dicts a Truman landslide in the preferential primary, with Tru man getting seventy-five per cent of the vote. This is certainly exaggerated, but Kefauver him self would undoubtedly be as tonished of he won the prefer ential vote, and well satisfied if he polled forty per cent or so. Thus Kefauver, . by . all the signs, wil be taught his lesson. This may seem strange, for if the public opinion polls mean anything, they mean that Tru man's hold even on his own party has never been weaker. The polls do mean something. But they do not mean that an outsider can successfully buck the regular organization under the American primary system. In normally Republican New Hampshire, the labor groups have formed a close defensive alliance with the regular Dem ocrats. Both the labor groups and the Democratic jobholders and professionals are now work ing hard to swamp Kefauver at the polls. If every Democrat and independent voter went to the polls next Tuesday, this might be very difficult. But less than I a third of the Democratic voters By Roland Cm who will vote in the presidential election are expected to take the trouble to cast ballots in the primary on Tuesday. TOIIS makes for ease of con- trol by the organization. There is also another reason why the triumph of a President whose prestige has rarely been lower is apparently asured here. As one organization man suc cinctly put it, "Who's got the jobs, Truman or Kefauver?" . What is . true in New Hamp shire is also true nationally. By challenging the incumbent Pres ident, . Kefauver has automati cally alienated almost every regular Democratic organization in the North. He has further compounded his felony by talk ing loudly and constantly about government corruption in truth, he has had very little else to talk about. Kefauver once had a chance, albeit a slim one, , of becoming his party's choice as a compro mise candidate acceptable to both North and South, given a Truman withdrawal and a dead lock at the convention. Now, with the Northern regulars al ienated, the liberals flocking to Gov. Adlai Stevenson, and his Southern props kicked out from under him by the candidacy of Sen. Richard Russell, Kefauver appear to have virtually no chance at all. Kefauver's experience before the television cameras last sum mer no doubt gave him a certain sense of mission, and this in turn led him incautiously to trans gress one of the great, built-in rules of American politics. This rule is that you simply do not challenge an incumbent Presi dent in your own party. In Dem ocratic party politics especially, it pays to be cautious; it pays to be regular, and it pays, above all, to play the game according to the rules.

Ike's Impressions on Greece, Turkey Visit Features Week's News By HOMER JENKS Balance sheet for the week be tween good and bad news in the hot and cold, wars: GOOD NEWS Gen.' Dwight D. Eisenhower visited Turkey and Greece to lay. the groundwork for bring ing their 40 divisions into his North Atlantic treaty forces. He said he had received a "satisfac tory impression" of Turkey's 30 divisions and was "proud" of Greece's 10 divisions. The U.S. took a tentative first step toward opening negotiations with Communist Czechoslovakia to obtain the release of impris oned American newsman Wil liam N. Otis. President Truman dedicated the Coast Guard cutter Courier as a floating "Voice of Amer ica" radio transmitter to carry the message of freedom to Communist-oppressed nations from vantage points on the high seas. BAD NEWS ' France's political crisis deep ened, delaying and jeopardizing the European defense plans ap proved by the North Atlantic treaty conference in Lisbon last week. Former Premier Paul Reynaud tried and failed to form a "government of national unity" to save France from eco nomic bankruptcy and political chaos. At week's end, Antoine Pinay, a little-known independ ent, was trying to patch together a new coalition government to succeed that of Premier Edgar Faure, who resigned last week.

Defiance Collage (These articles are based on the book. The Man From Abilene." by Kevin McCann, to be published by Doubleday k Company.) Throughout his life which is the background of . hard work and long,- ungrudging hours General of the Army Dwight D. Eisenhower has always rejected the Marxist "falsehood of an in escapable class warfare" and "the shibboleth of an unbridge able gap between those who hire and those who are unemployed." He has always looked upon capital and labor as essential partners in a great enterprise, that of preserving and improving the American system of de mocracy. In the post-war strike year of 1946 he wrote: ". . . . capital and labor would easily solve their difficulties if both knew their very existence depended upon accord!" Freedoms Indivisible He has held the freedoms of our system indivisible, insepara ble: "... all our freedoms per sonal, economic, social, political freedom to buy, to work, to hire, to bargain, to save, to vote, to worship, to gather in a con vention or join in mutual asso ciation; all these freedoms are a single bundle. Each is an indis pensable part of a single whole. Destruction of any inevitably leads to the destruction of all." Although he is a frank advo cate of the middle of the road and a foe of Socialism and the encroachments of centralized government, Gen. Eisenhower holds that the Federal govern ment could not be aloof in times of national economic distress. He wrote a few weeks ago to a friend in the United States: "Many of these restrictive laws applying to business and to industries, now accepted as necessary to an orderly and a measurably free life, go into much broader fields than that of mere personal deportment or conduct. Witness our anti-trust laws, social security plans, mini mum wage scales, interstate commerce regulations, and com munications laws. Many of them have been passed by the votes of both parties and with large ma jorities. "Over and beyond these, the country has welcomed in the past a host of laws enacted for the relief of economic distress and natural catastrophe It is safe to say that no American government of today would dare to stand idle if we should sud denly enter, again, a depression like that of 1932. "On the contrary, the govern ment would be expected to use the entire resources of the coun try to prevent disaster. The point is that this should be done without violation of our basic concepts of freedom, justice and right." He also pointed out the need "to stand watch to see that new financial despotisms do not arise, even though . they . could scarcely come into "existence ex cept with the consent of, or be cause of the weakness of the overall political organization. Weak government favors the lied weapons and equipment. East-West relations deterio rated in Berlin. Communist East Germany cut off some of western Berlin's electric power. Western Berlin retaliated by plunging part of the Soviet zone supplied by its power plant3 into dark ness. KP, DOKK Delegation Visits in Roseburg A delegation of members T the Knights of Pythias lodge also representing Fuhat'Burkan Temple 224, DOKK, made a semi-official visit to the KP lodge in Roseburg last week. Members from Medford mak ing the trip included Frank F. Convers, Joseph W. Fritsch, Ro land G. Beach, Carl Fichtner, Ray Yost and LeRoy F. Cline. Other lodge officials from Yre ka and Ashland also attended. Arrangements were made for the spring DOKK ceremonial to be held in Roseburg on Sat-! urdav. Mav 3. and a Itniffht ! rank ceremonial to be held by the light of the new moon at Yreka's natural cave on Satur day, June 7.

WHO IS ALDON? predatory; too strong a govern ment regiments us all. "In the mid-ground between the two extreme of complete laissez-faire and governmental control is found that condition which best satisfies the aspira tions of man as a spiritual and intellectual as well as a material being. To attain that mid-ground is the ever continuing problem of free men." Sympathies With Workers Gen. Eisenhower's own youth of hard work and memories of his father's life have put his sympathies in line with the workers. In a forthright address to the CIO at Atlantic City in 1946 he acknowledged the bene fits that had been brought to working men by labor organiza tions, adding: ' . "Men of my generation, fami liar in their youth with the spec ter of insecurity that haunted many a family whose meager shelter and clothing and food depended on the father's pro longed hours of toil and some times miserably small pay, are living witnesses of what has been accomplished. My own work-week during the year be fore I entered the Army in 1911 was 84 hours." He looked upon soldiers and workers as a team, the soldier providing the protective shield as in the NATO setup today while the worker "has an equal responsibility for insuring in ternal health and social, econom ic, moral strength." In the strike year of 1946 he feared that some in labor were so abusing freedom that their acts endangered it; that the tac tics of some labor leaders might provoke legal restrictions on un ions that would destroy many rights and privileges of workers. So thinking, he wrote: "The only reason for freedom is to bring about a greater level of happiness and higher living standards to all the people; and the free system deserves to sur vive only as long as it progresses 1952 NSL1 Dividend Will Not Be Paid Before Policy Date The 1952 dividend on National Service Life Insurance will not be available to eligible veterans in cash or for use as premium payments before the anniver sary date of their policies in 1952, the Veterans Administra tion warned last week. The VA says many veterans are under the impression the dividend is already due them and is being applied to their premi um payments immediately be cause they did not request cash payment. According to the VA, a regu lar dividend will be paid on all GI insurance policies in force for three months or longer be tween 1951 and 1952 anniver sary dates of the policies. Pay ments on policies with January anniversary dates are sched uled for this month. The VA es timated some 170,000 Pacific Northwest veterans will receive GI insurance dividends this year. Must Make Request Policy holders who wish to receive their 1952 dividend in cash must notify the VA, either by letter or on the special card mailed to them by the VA. If cash payment is not requested, the dividend will be used by the VA to pay the premiums becom ing due after the policy anni versary date on which the divi dend is payable, if the policy holder fails to pay such premi ums. In lieu of receiving the divi dend in cash, any policy holder may request, the VA in writing to apply his 1952 dividend as an advance payment on premi ums falling due after the 1952 anniversary date..

Everyone now recognizes that individual free dom can be lost in the operation of complex economies just as surely as it can under political dictatorship. The freedom must be real as well as legal the unions have been right to fight for this. All these things are of interest to all the people, not just the employers and the work men. "The Immediate problem has become how to handle the striking right and privilege in key industries so as to avoid par alyzing the nation but so as to preserve the inherent rights of individuals. ... Difficult in Application "The answer is easy in general izations; it is difficult only in practical application, because, although everyone believes in co operation (the single key) as a principle, no one is ready to abandon immediate advantage or position in practicing coopera tion. Moral regeneration, revival of patriotism, clear realization that progress in any great seg ment is not possible without progress for the whole; all these are necessary. "In a free system, laws can not fully answer the problem; just as written agreements could not satisfactorily meet the requirements of Allied Command in war. We must produce a healthy economy, raise living standards for all; and preserve individual liberty." In one of his memorable ad dresses that to the American Bar Association at St. Louis in 1949, Gen. Eisenhower asserted that "we miserably fail to chal lenge the lie that what is good for management is necessarily bad for labor; that for one side to profit, the other must be de pressed. Such distorted doctrine is false and foreign to the Ameri can scene. ... . . the interests ot manage ment and labor in most situa tions are identical. Differences are centered almost exclusively in the annual bargaining confer ences. But even here the true differences are far more appar ent than they are reaL For in telligent management certainly recognizes the need for maxi mum income to workers, consis tent with reasonable return on investment. With equal clarity, labor cannot fail to recognize the need for increasing amounts of risk capital to provide Jobs for our constantly growing popula tion. . . . "Above all we need more economic understanding and working arrangements that will bind labor and management, in every productive enterprise, into a far tighter voluntary co-operative unit than we now have." On the broad issue of work ers' security, General Eisenhower had this to say at the New York Herald Tribune Forum a few weeks later: Specific Questions "So as we consider measures designed to affect the status or security of the working man, we must ask these specific ques tions: 'Does the proposal push the worker one step closer to regimented labor? Does it ease the wav to governmental rnntrnl over his life and livelihood?' As we strive to lessen the shocks and privations incident to nlH ace to sickness, to unemployment, to natural disaster, let us choose among the several proposals that which best protects our heri tage of freedom." General Eisenhower has at tacked the "shallow critics" of the profit motive in the Ameri can system, saying: "They ignore the fact that it is an pmnnmi. support of every business right we possess, and that without it all rights would soon disappear." He defines the capitalist: "A capitalist, far from bein someone to condemn, in this country is one who by his own efforts in the past has made it possible for this country to be what it is today."
