Giant Hopes
Boosted by
Farm Boys
By UNITED PRESS
The Giants looked into the
future brightly Thursday be
cause of three farm boys Clint
Hartung, Jim Rhodes, and Al
Corwin. '
It is the "immediate future"
that interests Manager Leo Du
rocher who never was one to
"wait for next year". "And he
thinks the results obtained al
ready give him more than a
mathematical chance for a sec
ond straight miracle.
Down nine full games to the
Brooks after splitting Wednes
day's day-night doubleheader,
the Giants will have to go like
fury to come close let alone
catch up. But the performance
of the three men in the 8 to 4
night victory after Brooklyn's
opening 5 to 4 triumph made
Leo beam.
Hartung Standout
Hartung particularly stood
out, even though he was charg
ed with a throwing error on a
wet ball after a 55-minute rain
storm that let in two Dodger
runs. Clint more than atoned for
that lapse by driving in three
runs with a pair of doubles. .
What made this significant
was that in 21 games last year,
he drove in only two runs and
hit only one double. The one
time wonder boy's confidence
apparently was restored in his
stint this year at Minneapolis.
Rhodes came through , with
three runs batted in, too,- on a
double and a single and Corwin.
who pitched scoreless ball until
the rain, yielded only one earn
ed run and was a. strong figure
in the third Giants victory over
Brooklyn in a week. He was the
winning pitcher in the, other two.
The Dodgers got an- even
break when Peewee Reese sin
gled in the winning run in the
opener in which both Bobby
Thomson of the Giants and Gil
Hodges of the Brooks hit three
run homers.

State Squad
Adds Scolari
Portland (U.R) Len Scolari
of Coquille was added Thursday
to the state all-star roster for
the Aug. 23 Shrine football

here.
Scolari will replace Cliff Ros

Portland Fracas Eyed
For Harry Matthews
Portland (U.R) Promoter
Tex Salkeld said Thursday he
was ready to make an offer to
Harry (Kid) Matthews of Seattle
to fight here again providing it
was against a top-notch op
ponent. Salkeld said either Joe Kahut,
Woodburn, Ore., heavyweight,
or light-heavy contender Archie
Moore would make a good oppo
nent for the Seattle slugger.
He added he held little hope
of getting Matthews to meet
either of them here. But Salkeld
insisted he would not allow Mat-(
thews to pick his own opponent.

New York (U.R) The eerie
sound of horses' hoofs clopping
on London cobblestones drifted
into the room as Adrian Conan
Doyle announced dramatically
that Sherlock Holmes would re
turn to detective fiction.
The famed sleuth of 50 years
ago would have enjoyed the ef
fect of this news on members of
the Mystery Writers Association
in the audience.
"Singular, my dear Watson,"
he might have murmured.
Admired by 'Purists'
As the dean of fiction's detect
ives, Holmes still "is reverently
admired by the "purists" among
modern mystery authors. But as
a competitor to their own mys
tery novel characters . . well. . .

acres of hops belonging to Roy
Lathrop and Sons on Lower Riv
er road collapsed Wednesday.
That totals 77 acres of the 250
acre crop, 20 acres on the home
place on Upper River road going

"I am going to protect Holmes
from the charlatans who have
been trying to capitalize on his
reputation," said the son of Sir
Arthur Conan Doyle, , Holmes'
creator who saw to it that a
copyright would protect his hero
after death.
A 19th-century melody re
placed the sounds coming from
a replica of Holmes' study which
was on display in the room ad
joining the meeting. Two mys
tery novel authors leaned
thoughtfully on the glass show
case containing handwritten
original manuscripts of the Sher
lock Holmes stories.
First Story Completed
"The first new Sherlock
Holmes story is already com
pleted," Conan Doyle continued
with a note of triumph in his
voice. "My collaborator, John
Dickson Carr, and I intend to do
12 short stories, the same num
ber as my father -included in his
first Sherlock Holmes book, and
then follow it with a novel."
Carr, a shy-appearing man,
has written 50 mystery novels
under his own name and the
pseudonym of Carter Dickson,
The two men will work in
Conan Doyle's home in Tangiers,
a setting far removed from the
foggy London streets outside
Holmes' famous study. But the
mystery tales will be set in the
time and place of the original
Authentically Assured
Conah Doyle wandered among
the members assuring them of
the authenticity of the new Sher
lock Holmes fiction.
"The first story, called the
Adventures of the Seven Clocks:
was shown to one of the top
Holmes authorities," he said
earnestly. "The only criticism
he had was that we didn't have
Holmes putting down his cherry
wood pipe before he picked up
his clay pipe.
From Holmes' most fanatic
followers, the Baker Street Ir
regulars, came skepticism.
"You don't mean it" exclaim
ed Tom Stix, a lawyer who be
longs to the group. "You might
just as well write a continuation
of the Bible."
Frank Costello .
To Enter Prison
Cell on Friday
New York (U.R) Gambling
czar Frank Costello is scheduled
to change his address Friday
from fashionable . Central Park
West in Manhattan to a prison
cell at Danbury, Conn.
Barring an 11th hour legal
maneuver, which ' appears un
likely, the fashionplate of the
underworld will surrender to
federal authorities Friday to be
gin a 18-month prison term for
contempt of the United States
Senate.
Request Turned Down
Costello's last chance to stay
out of jail faded Wednesday in
Washington. Supreme Court Jus
tice Robert H. Jackson turned
down his second request to re
main free on$5,000 bail while
he seeks a review of his case by
the nation's highest court.
The term at the federal cor
rectional institution at Danbury
will be Costello's first ' stretch
behind bars in 37 years. He serv
ed a short term for illegally
carrying a gun in 1915.
Eligible for Parole
Costello, identified by the-Ke-fauver
crime committee as the
kingpin of a New York-Miami
gambling axis, will don prison
dungarees in place of the expen
sively tailored suits which are
his trademark.
' The 61-year-old gambler will
be eligible for parole in six
months. He can continue to press
his appeal while serving his sentence.
Crops Suffer Severe

The report said feed supplies

forcing importation of hay and
feed grains "and in numerous
cases the reduction of livestock

concern for the winter wheat
crop about to be harvested.

Stevenson Urges
States To Stop
Government Drift
Springfield,' 111. : (U.R) Gov.
Adlai E.- Stevenson asked today
for votes to send him to Wash
ington and urged the States to
stop the "tidal drift" of govern
ment to Washington.
"The people will demand the
services and if they don't get
them at home they will turn to
Uncle Sam," he said. "And
every dollar you send to Wash
ington to pay for them will
shrink before it gets back
home."
First Formal Speech
" Stevenson, the Democratic
presidential nominee, voiced his
this warning in a speech pre
pared for delivery at Governor's
Day at the Illinois State Fair. It
was his first formal speech since
his address accepting the presi
dential nomination at the Na
tional Convention three weeks
ago.
While speaking of the respon
sibilities of state governments,
he ridiculed charges particu
larly those from Sen. Richard
M. Nixon, the Republican vice
presidential nominee, who spoke
here Wednesday that he is a
"captive" candidate.
- "They say I am a captive of
the city bosses and then of the
CIO, and then of the Dixiecrats,
and then of President Truman,
and then of Wall Street, and
then of an organization called
ADA." Stevenson said.
Not Uncomfortable
"I had no idea. I was so popu
lar and I hope I can bear this
multiple courtship and captivity
with becoming modesty . . . it's
not too uncomfortable to be cap
tured by most everybody " ex
cept the Republican Old
Guard."
He spoke of the responsibili
ties of the States after pointing
with pride to his record as gov
ernor for the past three and one
half years. He said such work is
important because the States
are important.

There is a host of things that endear
a Roadmaster to anyone who
loves to drive.
There's the might of its Fireball 8
Engine most powerful ever put in a
Buick.
There's the thrift of its Airpower car
buretor a four-barrel automatic that
literally brings increased power right
out of thin air.
There's its hushed and luxurious silence
its poised and level ride that cost a
million dollars to develop and the infi
nite smoothness of its Dynaflow Drive.
But the thing that has brought the most
cheers for this big and obedient beauty
is Buick's version of Power Steering.
Gone is the tug of turning, parking,
maneuvering in small space.
Power Steering takes over the effort of
turning the front wheels makes it a
one-hand operation.
Do you have to learn to drive all over
again if you have this new Buick
feature?
You definitely do not. On the open road,
you have that same sure sense of com
mand that you've always had. Coming
out of a curve, you can loosen your grip,
and the front wheels right themselves
just as they do on every Buick.
But you'll notice this: When you
suddenly hit loose dirt or sand or a
stretch of rough road Power Steering
smoothly goes into action helps take
up the jerk makes control of the wheel
easier and driving safer.
Wouldn't you like to try out this new
est wonder on a Roadmaster or a
Super? You say the word, and we'll do
the rest.
Equipment, accessories, trim and models are subject to
change without notice. Optional at extra cost on
Roadmaster and Safer only.
