UN Expected To Okay
San Francisco Meet
United Nations, N.Y. (U.R)
The UN -General assembly is ex
pected to adopt unanimously to
day that it hold a seven - day
10th birthday meeting in San
Francisco starting June 20.
The UN Administrative and
Budgetary committee agreed
yesterday, by a vote of 44 to 0,
to recommend that the meeting
be held. '
In the final session of its ninth
annual meeting the Assembly is
expected today to give its un
animous final approval of the
plan. ' '
It was proposed originally that
the United Nations meet for two
weeks in San - Francisco, its
birthplace, to commemorate its
formation. -
However, delegates felt that
a . one-week session would be
long enough, four days of gen
eral celebration and programs
and three days of non-official
UN meetings.
Phoenix and Glendale areA's.
Talent is unbeaten ; in five
starts and will be after victories
six and seven. The Bulldogs
have already turned back' both
Jacksonville and Glendale once.
They victory oyer Jacksonville
was in the Souttiern Oregon col
lege tourney where Talent es
tablished y itself ) the strongest
among the Jackson county "B's
in the meet. But the tussles' this
week end are an opportunity, for
Jacksonville's Redskins to show
that they must still be reckon
ed with in regular , loop play. ,
Comparison - - ; :;
Crater's hassle with Rogue
River will afford it a compari
son with two Rogue League riv
als, Illinois ; Valley and . Eagle
Point. Rogue River has whip
ped Illinois Valley twice-and
lost the same number of ; times
to Eagle Point. Phoenix gets a
tip on Rogue League possibilit
les since Talentj has defeated
Eagle Point.' V
- Rogue River, which did 'not
vie in the college's tourney gets
some idea of how it matches
with Talent , from the Bulldogs
series with Glendale, its own
game with -Crater and Crater's
two wins over Glendale.
