By FRED DOWN United Press Sports Writer Gene Conley passed his big test, which means the Braves are ready today for the even bigger test of presenting Mil waukee with its first pennant. The 6-foot, 8-inch right hand er, who came off the disabled list Friday, spun six strong in nings in relief Monday night to score his first victory as the Braves retained first, place with a 10-3 conquest of the St. Louis Cardinals. Conley yielded eight hits but wasn't touched for a run until the ninth in giving the Braves their third straight win. Hank Aaron led the Braves' 14-hit attack with four hits while Bobby Thomson and Del Cran dall homered. Aaron now has batted .537 in the Braves' last 10 games and has his season's average up to .347. Can Beat Dodgers But Conley's performance was the big story because the tower ing side-wheeler is recognized as the pitcher who can control the powerful Brooklyn Dodgers. Big Gene had an 11-5 record in early July last year before he came down with a lame shoul der. He suffered a recurrence of the ailment in spring training and at one time was feared lost for the season. Tha amazing Pittsburgh Pi rates ran their winning streak to four games and took a IVi game hold on third place with a 3-2 decision over the Dodgers. A crowd of 32,221 largest for a night game at Forbes Field in six years was delighted as Bob Friend pitched a two-hitter and Dale Long ran his record homer streak to eight in eight games. . Friend now has beaten the Dodgers three times this season, has won five straight games and has an 8-2 record. He leads the majors in victories. Long, given a $2,500 raise only a few hours before Monday night's game, has a .414 average and has hit in nine straight games. Robin Roberts made one of his rare relief appearances to help Harvey Haddix win his first game - for Philadelphia as the Phillies downed the New York Giants, 5-2. Roberts choked off a Giant rally in the eighth after two hits by Willie Jones and triples by Elmer Valo and Richie Ashburn paced the Phil lies to their early lead. Bob Rush, who's scored three of the Chicago Cubs' nine tri umphs this year, pitched a three hitter to beat the Cincinnati Red legs, 4-1. Yanks Widen Bulge In the American League, the New York Yankees opened up a 4i4-game lead when they beat the Boston Red Sox, 2-0, behind Whitey Ford's five-hitter. It was Ford's seventh victory and he reduced his earned run average to 1.01. Frank Sullivan's wild pitch and two of three errors by rookie shortstop Don Buddin fig ured In the Yankee scoring. Former teammate Steve Gro mek pitched a six-hitter to give the Detroit Tigers a 3-2 decision over the second place Cleveland Indians. The first three Cleve land batters hit safely against Gromek but he yielded only three more blows the rest of the way. Ray Boone had a homer and two singles as the Tigers handed strikeout king Herb Score his fourth loss. ' Enos Slaughter's two -run ninth inning homer enabled the Kansas City Athletics to come from behind and beat the Chi cago White Sox, 6-4, and Chuck Diering singled home pitcher Mike Fornieles, who had dou bled, In the 10th to provide the Baltimore Orioles with a 6-5 tri umph over the Washington Sen ators in the other AL games.

Bill's 99 remained tied for first place by trouncing Medford De Molay, 17-6. Leading the win ner's attack was Dick Mister and Willard Barnum, who both hit a homer and a single. Bill Sweet pounded out a couple of doubles for Bill's 99 and Dick Ferrell had a double. Larry Slessler aided their cause with three singles. Winning pitcher was Willard Barnum who fanned three and walked none. Bill Sweet relieved him in the final innings. John Harvey, who relieved starting pitcher Gary Colton, took the loss for Medford DeMolay. Greg Orr, who banged out a triple, and Gary Colton, who doubled, highlighted the DeMo lay onslaught. Chris' Drugs waltzed to their second straight win drubbing the 20-30 club, 19-0. Connecting with hits for the winners were Guerdy and Richardson, who scored three runs each, and Jerry Montgomery, who scored two runs. Waldron, whiffing one and walking none, got credit for the victory. Sanders, who. allowed four bases on balls, took the loss for the 20-30 club. Jones, Butterfield and Niles got the only hjts for the losers. Rain Won't Stop Race Indianapolis, Ind. (U.R) Speedway officials indicated to day the annual 500-mile Memo rial Day auto race will begin as scheduled Wednesday despite heavy rains which flooded the grounds and kept 13 cars from attempting qualifying runs. "Our plans call for the race Wednesday," speedway publicity chief Al Bloemker said. "We believe we can get the grounds in condition and that the track will be up to par." GARVER DISABLED Detroit (U.R) The Detroit Tigers have asked Commissioner Ford Frick for permission to place sore-armed pitcher Ned Garver on the disabled list. Doc tors examined Garver Monday and said a sprained tendon in his right elbow is not fully healed. Chapman's Condition Remains Critical Portland (U.R) Attendants at Good Samaritan, hospital said today the condition of C. C. Chapman, retired editor of the Oregon Voter, remained critical. Chapman was' hospitalized yes terday after suffering a stroke. Use Mail Tribune Want Ada Models of Missiles Reach Record Speeds San Diego (U.R)' Midget mod els of future intercontinental ballistic missiles have reached speeds of 10,000 miles an hour, the greatest ever achieved by man-made objects. The National Advisory Com mittee for Aeronautics revealed the record speed in a cautious outline of progress toward de velopment of missiles that can stand the terrific heat generated when they burst back through the atmosphere en route to targets. Future intercontinental mis siles will streak from their launching points into space and re-enter the earth's atmosphere at meteoric speeds, creating temperatures of 20,000 degrees. Preventing them from evapor ating is one of the major prob lems science faces. Light-Gas Gun The top government aviation research agency disclosed late Monday that it has developed a "light-gas gun" at its Moffett Field laboratory which fires mis siles of three-quarter inch di ameter into pressurized tanks. Air in the tanks can be pressur ized to simulate any desired alti tude. The NACA said that it is de veloping a larger device which will produce speeds . of 16,000 miles an hour, approximately the speed that gigantic intercontin- Christian Party Continues Gains In Italian Voting Rome (U.R) The governing Christian Democratic Party rolled up striking election gains at the expense of the Commu nists today only to see .their new electoral law backfire and "rob" them of control of many key cities. The Christian Democrats who led Italy into the Atlantic alli ance appeared to be losing their clear majority in the municipal councils of such cities as Rome, Florence, Genoa and Milan. Deadlock Inevitable In Rome, center of the Cath olic Church and capital of the country, a deadlock appeared in evitable between the center Christian Democrats and their extreme left-wing opponents. But the Communists held con trol of "Red" Bologna. Under the old election law the party winning the most votes automatically got two-thirds of the city council seats. This gave the Christian Democrats auto matic control in such cities as Rome and Florence. But to please their smaller center party allies, the Chris tian Democrats agreed to a pro portional voting system in N all cities over 10,000. The city coun cil seats were allotted this year on a strict percentage basis and the Christian Democrats lost out. In Florence, for example, the Christian Democrats led by Mayor Giorgi La Pira picked up 100,202 votes as compared with 87,889 in the 1951 elections. But they lost nine "bonus" council seats and with them control of the council. Better News On the international level there was better news for the western alliance. Returns from the local elections Sunday and Monday showed the western par ties had survived with flying colors the first voting test of the Kremlin's "peace and smiles" offensive. The Ministry of Interior an nounced that returns from 4,637 of the 6,093 towns or villages having a population of up to 10,000 showed the Christian Democrats won control of 2,724, the Communists and left-wing Socialists 1,163 and independents 750. Automobile Dealers Elect Ashland Man Portland (U.R) Douglas O. Moore of Portland was elected president of the Oregon Auto mobile Dealers Association to day as the group's annual con vention opened here. Lyman W. Slack, Portland, was named first vice-president and James M. Busch, Ashland, second vice-president. Donald V. Cady, Hillsboro, was re-elected secretary-treasurer.

The tiny projectiles being used at Moffett Field simulate "the actual speeds and tempera tures a full-scale missile is ex pected to meet in flight." NACA is concerned chiefly with the shapes of missile warheads. Inter-Service Feud The government agency dis closed its research effort in a briefing for members of the Aviation Writers Association holding their annual convention here. The reporters previously had heard a top Army officer as sert that his service is just be ginning to expand its aviation. Brig. Gen. Carl I. Hutton, commandant of the Army Avia tion Center at Fort Rucker, Ala., said that the Air Force has no divine right" to airplanes just because it is a flying service. Hutton thus heated up again the running inter-service contro versy over war roles and weapons. Small Business Loans Approved Washington (U.R) Loans totalling $423,179 have been ap proved for small businesses in Oregon, the Small Business Ad ministration said today. The federal agency said the loans ranged from the $225,000 disaster loan granted three Rose- burg lumber firms on a joint ap plication to a $330 disaster loan to Amelia J. Dick of Grants Pass. The three lumber companies were Commercial Lumber Sales, Jay-Mark Lumber Company and Winston Mills. Product Engi neering company got the largest Portland loan of $60,000. Others were Nelson Rose Nursery, $20,- 000; Robert M. Gregg, $10,000; Nick Radovich, $5,000; William G. Griffith, $3000, and Columbia Nursery Comapny, $3000. Other upstate loans approved were Roseway Nurseries of Bea verton, $50,000; Faqette L. Weedin, Troutdale, $28,190; Hud son Farm Supply Company of Scappoose, $10,000. Tuesday. May 29, 1958 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE NINE Stevenson-Kefauver Slugfest Could Bring Demo Compromise Lyle C Wilson By LYLE C. WILSON United Press Correspondent Washington (U.R) There's some cluck-clucking in the pub lic prints and among politicians PlS; about the Stev enson - Kefau ver slugfest for Florida's dele gation to the Democratic na tional conven tion. The Flor i d a presiden t i a 1 primary takes place today. Adlai E. Stevenson is a soft- spoken man. But he confided to friends long ago his feeling that the senator really had no busi ness being in the Democratic presidential contest. Stevenson evidently resented the campaign pressure which compelled him somewhat to change his style from distant contact with the voters to baby-patting and the pumping of nameless hands. Sen. Estes Kefauver has been giving Stevenson some rough words in Florida. Stevenson has been volleying back at him, al though their widely publicized Florida debate was as tame and friendly as a puppy. 'Smile and Smear' Kefauver has likened Steven son's tactics to what he described as the "Republican smile and smear campaign" of 1952-54. Stevenson said of Kefauver that there was such a thing as want ing to be president too much. That's a slick way of saying that the senator would not permit a Nationalist Chinese Shell Tateng, Lienho Tokyo (U.R) Peiping Radio said today Nationalist Chinese troops on Quemoy Island shelled Tateng and Lienho on more than 29 occasions during the past five days. Reports from Taipei, Formosa, earlier said Communist Chinese gunners on Tateng and Lienho fired 27 rounds against the Na tionalist offshore island of Que moy after a silence of 12 days.

That is how it has been going in Florida and, next Tuesday comes California. Florida is a comparatively small state. Its primary is worth more in pres tige than in delegates. California is tops in both. It is reasonable to assume that the candidates who hit hard at each other in Florida have reserved their Sun day punches for next week's wind-up on the West Coast. But, so what? A pre-conven- tion contest for a major party President Given 'Decision Meier' Washington (U.R) President Eisenhower got a new gadget today, "a decision meter." He said jokingly that it should give him more time for golf. The meter was a present from Gerald Millar, a 16-year-old in ventor from Kalispell, Mont. Gerald called at the White House with a fellow inventor, Everett O'Hare, 17, and their science teacher, Richard M. Nel son, 30. Nelson recently was named "Teacher of the Year" by the U. S. Office of Education and McCall's Magazine. Mr. Eisenhower also got a gad get from O'Hare, a solar-powered transitor radio which the Presi dent said he plans to carry around on the top of his golf cart "to hear the news." All you have to do to operate the electric "decision meter" is twist a few dials. Young Miller claims the meter will consider all the pros and cons of a prob lem and come up with a flat "yes" or "no." presidential nomination usually Is a rough house if there is more than one real contender. The suggestion heard often of late that a Democratic Stevenson-Kefauver ticket would be impossi ble this year because the pair have been roughing each other a bit does not accord with prece dent Geographical Arguments There might be geographical arguments against the nomina tion of Stevenson, of Illinois, for president and Kefauver, of Ten nessee, for vice-president. Their personal differences or mutual dislike, however, scarcely would hold against one situation which might develop at the Democratic national' convention. It would be this: If Stevenson had a good lead but still was shy of a nominating majority and Kefauver was holding a good bloc of votes but without much prospect of adding to them, that would be the time to make a deal if a deal is to be. This is not to say that Kefauver is running for vice-president or, even, that he would accept second place. But he may have in August a chance to refuse. Some time prior to 1900, Charles Dudley Warner put it this way: True it is that politics makes strange bedfellows.
