Temperatures Rise
Coast to Coast;
Europe Swelters
By UNITED PRESS
It was hot and humid from
coast to coast today, with some
light showers in the Midwest and
iTnnr MississiDDi Valley provid
ing the only relief and not
much at that.
Temperatures from the high
70s to the 90s were common. At
Ttit-n Calif., the mercury
zoomed to 100 during the night.
Overseas, Europeans contin
ued to suffer from their worsi
heat wave in 20 years. More
than 210 persons have died as
a result of it.
Llahinina Kills On
At Ascot, England, a freak
storm sem uguuiuit
into a richly-dressed crowd in
front of the royal box at the
Royal Ascot Race Course yester
day and killed one person
Thirty others were injured.
Back home, police at Las
Vegas, Nev., combed the hot des
ert for a 13-year-old boy missing
"since Monday while clad only
in swimming trunks and a T-
ahirt. Planes aided in the search
in 100-degree temperatures.
Light rains which fell last
night in the Detroit area pro
vided little help for the local
drought, but officials said prompt
response to Mayor Albert Cobo's
appeal to cut water usage to only
necessities has helped ease the
water crisis.
Haat Blamed for Death
Detroit officials hoped for
thundershowers today, but the
weatherman forecast a high of
93. The heat was blamed for the
death of Ike Williams, 67, who
collapsed and died of heat pros
tration while watching a Detroit
andlot ball game.
- There was one cooling thought,
however. At Memphis, Tenn., a
convention group will have a
snowball fight in a city park
Wednesday. Some 500 snowballs
will be shipped from Akron, O.,
where they've been kept In cold
storage.
... a which time natrons
and anyone else interested will
be invited to view xne esiao-
lishment.

Blonde Veteran of Africa
Safaris Wishes To Display
Heminawav's Head on Wall
London (U.R) Michaela
Denis, a stormy blonde vho is
known as "the white goddess"
to some African tribes, pointed
to the wall of her living room
and said she would like to dis
play the head of Ernest Heming
way on it.
"And every other big game
hunter who collects the heads
of lions, timers and deer," she
scowled. "Do you know why
they kill? Because they feel the
need to assert their virility.
Hemingway and the others must
have a terrible sense of inse
curity to have to kill animals."
On Seven Safaris
I fear for the Nobel prize
winner and his stalking friends
if they had appeared at that mo
ment. Mrs. Denis once chucked
a flirtatious lady over a coffee
table for making eyes at her
husband, Armand Denis, who
hunts the wild beasts of the
jungle with only a camera.
. She has been on seven safaris
to the wilder parts of our world
and is believed to be she
won't admit it a "munganga"
or sood witch, with certain
powers possessed-by these sor
ceresses of the Oka tribe of
Africa.
Swing Through Africa
In her apartment cluttered
with native masks, African and
Australian curios and an assort
ment of live pets, the Denises
are preparing for the first safari
soonsored by commercial tele
vision. They leave in about three
weeks for a long swing through
Africa, sending back film of
their real life adventures.
A vast array of cosmetics is
going with her.
"I always wear lipstick, eye
brow pencil, pancake founda
tion and even eye shadow," she
said. "It helps keep up the
morale of the . safari, protects
the skin and the natives simply
love it.
People are the same the world
over. Mrs. Denis believes. She
once showed a pinup of Marilyn
Monroe to a native deep in the
heart of Africa. What did he do?
"He gave a wolf whistle," she
said.

MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE THREE
Deportation Trial
Of Bridges Develops
Into Contradictions
San Francisco U.B The de
naturalization trial of West Coast
labor leader Harry Bridges has
Hevelnned into a series ol sharp
and direct contradictions in the
testimony of government and de
fense witnesses.
The 54-year-old president of
the International Longshore
men's and Warehousemen's Un
ion is fighting the government's
fourth attempt to have him de
ported to his native Australia for
falsely denying affiliation wren
the Communist Party when he
received his citizenship in 1945.
Yesterday Bruce Jones, an ex
plosive, snuff-chewing witness
for the defense, took the stand
to challenge the testimony of
star government witness John
Schomaker.
Schomaker, an admitted ex-
Communist, testified earlier that
Jones recruited Bridges into the
Communist Party over a cup of
coffee. But Jones denied that he
recruited the longshore leader
in the party, said he had never
collected party dues from
Bridges nor turned over an ap
plication by the defendant to
Communist Party officials.
When Jones, another admitted
ex-Communist, first took the
stand, defense attorney Richard
Gladstein asked the witness to
remove whatever he had in his
mouth.
The witness took out a large
wad of snuff to the amusement
of the courtroom and plopped it
into a wastebasket near Federal
Judge Louis E. Goodman.
Under cross-examination, Asst.
U.S. Atty. Robert Schnacke
asked Jones if he was still a
member of the Communist Party.
"That's a very difficult ques
tion, your honor," the longshore
man replied. "Because if I say
I am a member, he can bring in
a half dozen Matusows, Paul
Crouches and others to say I am
not a member.
"If I say I am not, he can
bring in those same mental pros
titutes to say I am."
When pressed by the judge to
answer the question, Jones re
plied:
"In order to be a member of
the Communist Party you have
to pay dues and pack a book, and
I haven't done it since 193Z."
Earlier yesterday, Davie L
Saunders, a former Communist
Party waterfront organizer, testi
fied that he lied on many occa
sions" to conceal Bridges' mem
bership in the Communist Party.
Gladstein indicated he would
call Saunders' father-in-law, Le
roy Moorehouse, to refute Saun
ders testimony. Moorehouse
would be the "secret witness'
promised by the defense during
Wednesday's session.
