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.

ner's attack was Dick Mister and

Rain Won't

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

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.

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.

ental missiles will reach on their
death-dealing missions.
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

Other upstate loans approved
were Roseway Nurseries of Bea

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

Tokyo (U.R) Peiping Radio

Tateng and Lienho on more than

earlier said Communist Chinese

fired 27 rounds against the Na

little thing like his principles
stand between himself and the
White House.
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.

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.
