Hells Canyon Fight in Senate Expected To Be Touch-and-Go WATCH THAT TAPE Mexico City (U.R) Irate beauty contestants charged Mon day that the judges "padded the figures" when they reported that Erna Baumann, Miss Mexico of 1956, is a "perfect 35." The con testants said it was only a slip of the judges' tape that made it appear that the 18-year-old blonde beauty, born in Mexico of German parents, measures 35-21-35 from top to bottom. "Miss Baumann's measurements are in no way perfect," snapped one embittered runner-up.

ROBERT SMITH Mail Tribune Correspondent Washington All the prognos tications on the outcome of the Hells Canyon fight that is due to start in the Senate this week are for a touch and go affair all the way. . Both Demo crats who are pushing the bill to author ize a high fed- a. RobL smith eral dam ana Republicans who are trying to kill the bill concede that the is sue may be decided by only a vote or two, so closely divided is the Senate on the question. The outcome could even be determined by timing more than anything that is, who happens to be out of town when the vote is taken. Even the whereabouts of President Eisenhower may af fect the result, for at Gettys burg he is largely removed from the immediate scene of legisla tive battle on Capitol Hill and unlikely to be intervening per sonally. If all the Senate Democrats voted for the Hells Canyon bill, it would be passed by at least the 49-to-47 margin by which they can outvote Senate Repub licans. But despite the fact that the Democratic leaders are mak ing this a major party issue, they can't count all their mem bers in the fold, especially sev eral from the Southern wing. May Affect Campaigns The Southerners are being told with some emphasis by their northern colleagues that the outcome of this question may affect tha result of the two hot Senate election campaigns in Oregon and Washington this fall and if Sens.

' SIZE A J A and Warren G. Magnuson are defeated Democrats will prob ably lose control of the Senate and Southern Democrats who now hold the chairmanships of many committees will lose these commanding positions of author ity. But It was not until the Re publican National Committee an nounced 10 days ago that Wash ington Gov. Arthur B. Langlie, Magnuson's challenger, was to oe the iieynoter of the GOP con vention that Southerners began to realize how much the GOP ic going to put into the effort to boost Langlie and defeat Mag nuson. And reportedly many were converted to the Hells Can yon cause for this political rea son. On the opposition side, the ad ministration, which has backed Idaho Power Co.'s venture in the Snake River, is doing all it can to stop the high dam bill. For this reason most western Repub licans are splitting away from the usual bloc of bipartisan western supporters of new fed eral projects. Sen. Arthur V. Watkins (R Utah), who led the successful campaign in Congress for the $760 million federal Upper Colo rado reclamation-power project, is turning into a leader of the opposition to Hells Canyon. Re portedly, this is in payment of his debt to the administration for its help in putting the Upper Colorado project through. One western Republican, who has yet to announce his decis ion, has confided that some time ago he was telephoned by Eisen hower who personally asked him to oppose the high dam bill. This is the administration's big gun, of course, and the fact that Eisenhower has since fallen ill and is now convalescing at Get tysburg may reduce its imme diate fire power . on wavering Republicans. Among these are the North Dakota senators, Langer and Young, who often vote-with the Democrats on farm and resource issues, particularly those involv ing public power. It would prob ably take as much party pres sure to line them up against Hells Canyon as it would to get such Southerners as Sen. Harry Byrd to vote for the bill. The additional factor leading to uncertainty is absenteeism. It is the rarest of occasions that all 96 Senators are on hand for any vote, no matter how vital. So whether there will be more ab sentee Democrats than Repub licans or vice versa when the roll is called may tip the bal ance for or against the bill, de spite all the carefully laid plans of both sides in this titanic po litical struggle in Congress. Joanne Dm, Male 'Temporarily' Split Hollywood (U.R) Actress Joanne Dru disclosed today she and her husband, actor John Ire land, have separated "tempor arily" following their July Fourth' quarrel at a gay Holly wood barbecue party. The pretty actress, divorced wife of singer Dick Haymes, was released from Cedars 'of Lebanon hospital yesterday where she was treated for a black eye and broken nose.

She said she would re main at home until fully recov ered from injuries suffered in an alleged auto accident. - The . actress, mother of three children by Haymes, claimed the accident occurred when she and Ireland were driving home from the party at the home of actor Mark Stevens.
