Ex-Call Girl Said Sheppard Tipster Cleveland (U.R) A former call girl was reported today as the tipster who prompted Assist ant County Prosecutor Saul Danaceau to reopen the Shep pard murder case investigation. The Cleveland Press said it learned that Danaceau's inform er was a "former call girl" herd in an eastern Ohio institution. The newspaper said the wom an told the prosecutor that the operator of a Cleveland vice racket might have been in the home of Dr. Samuel H. Shep pard. Danaceau was unavailable for comment. The oesteopath's pregnant wife. Marilyn, was bludgeoned to death in the fashionable su burban Eheppard home early on the morning of July 4. 1954. The informer told Danaceau that the vice operator might have been known to both Shep pard and his wife, according to the newspaper. The prosecutor a n n o u need Tuesday that he had reopened the investigation on the basis of ""new facts" he learned from a person who called him on the telephone. The Cleveland police depart ment, which conducted the orig inal investigation, refused to en ter the renewed investigation, however. Danaceau said he remained convinced that Sheppard was guilty ' .... mMT i IIP lillll mmum ate i .. wj H e m MF-V XW?t ' rT, liL WJL, niii. . -1-j & .-.jwjeae- If f c" "W r- , -rr-t Try, iv f-L t Wtuv, m, - MHiKMEaitH YOU HAVi WON' Hungarian Red Cross volunteers, carrying a Red Cross flag painted witL human blood, speed to scene of action during revolution against Russian ' forces in Budapest.

Nixon has accused Adlai E. Stevenson of playing politics with the Mid dle Eastern crisis and challenged him to say how he would have prevented it. Nixon was obviously nettled by Stevenson's criticism of the administration's Middle East policies. Nixon said that the tense international situation cre ated by Israel's attack on Egypt makes it more imperative that President Eisenhower be con tinued at the helm of govern ment. . He challenged Stevenson to tell the American people what he would have done had he been in the White House to prevent the Israeli-Egyptian crisis. Direct Answer Not Expected "I do not expect he will give a direct answer to those ques tions." Nixon said. "He is an indecisive how-nct-to-do-it man,' a pathetic Hamlet on the American political stage." Nixon flew East today for his campaign windup. His bitter at tack on the Democratic nominee in San Diego Tuesday night was his final bid for California's 32 electoral votes. He scheduled one speech in Detroit and three in New York City today. He boards a cam paign train tonight for a final whistle-stop tour of Pennsyl vania and Ohio. His final cam paign push will take him into four states that will cast almost one fourth of the total electoral votes in next Tuesday's election. can policy in the Middle East before 12,000 persons here Tues day night. He recalled that on Armistice Day last year, he pointed to the "danger of all-out war" between Israel and Egypt in a speech he delivered at Charlottesville, Va. Stevenson said in that 1955 speech that the only way to avoid bloodshed was to keep the troops of the two nations "apart." He suggested the Unit ed Nations achieve this by hav ing guards patrol "the areas of tension and collision." Says Proposal Dismissed ."Needless to say" Stevemvn told his Philadelphia listeners, "this proposal was dismissed by the administration even as they are now dismissing my sugges tion that we take prompt steps to stop the experimental explo sion of hydrogen bombs." Stevenson's address capped a day in which he drew good crowds at Baltimore, Camden, N.J., and here. He planned to take a train from Philadelphia today for New York City, where he was to speak at a midtown rally, a box lunch of Democratic ladies and a meeting in Union Square. He will then fly to Pittsburgh for a statewide telecast tonight, his final Pennsylvania appearance. Stevenson devoted most of his speech Tuesday night to an at tack on the "phoneyness" of the Republican campaign, and on Moscow Papers See Mid-East 'Conspiracy' Moscow U.R Moscow news papers charged in big, black headlines today that the Middle East crisis was an ."imperialist conspiracy" against the Arab states. Pravda, official organ of the Communist party, charged flatly that Israel's attack on Egypt "would never have been under taken had it not enjoyed the support of the' United States, Britain and France." The government newspaper Izvestia demanded that "the ag gression against Egypt must cease immediately." The Israeli attack was described as "a pre meditated act consorted with the Western powers as a pretext to occupy the Suez." President Eisenhower as a "part time" Chief Executive. Skirts Health Question Several times, Stevenson skirt ed the question of the Presi dent's health. First he said he had "no comment on the Presi dent's health or whether he should have sought reelectoo." "But I do have strong views about the conduct of the office of the president," Stevenson said. "Even before his illness Mr. Eisenhower showed little in clination for the round-the-clock responsibilities of the most important . . . office on earth Stevenson listed a series of tense world situations when he said Mr. Eisenhower was away from Washington, playing golf or shooting quail. Stevenson asked what would happen if this were to continue for four more years. "This isn't a matter of one man's health," he said. "This is a matter of the nation's health. And this nation knows that no other issue can be more import ant in this election, and that it must be faced up to squarely." Collins Reports for Duty With BLM Here A. P.

The sweeping declaration was contained in a formal govern ment statement issued Tuesday night regarding the Soviet's rela tions with its Communist neigh bors. It said continued presence of Soviet troops in Hungary could lead to "greater deterioration" of the situation there and that discussions should be opened on "whether a further stay of U.S.S.R. advisers in these coun tries is expedient." Faced with the Hungarian re bellion and opposition to old Communist ties in Poland, Rus sia drastically revised its entire military, political and economic policy toward the other nations in the Communist camp. The new government view was also believed to extend to East Gen,.dny, Bulgaria, Alba nia and Communist China.

Gaston Woman Said Youngest Grandma Portland U.R) No sooner do they name a first, biggest, oldest, youngest, or some other unqual , ified title then up comes a new claimant to the role. Recently a national contest crowned a "Youngest Grand mother." Her age was 35. Since then Oregon has come up with two claimants that outdid the national winner by three years and has a couple on file from' past years that are still under the 35 mark. The newest "youngest grand mother" is 32-year-old Mrs. G A. Redner of Gaston. She wa. 32 on Aug. 8. Mrs. Redner's firsi grandchild, Cinda Marie, was born in McMinnville this month to Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Yates of Gaston. Only two' weeks ago a Spring field woman, Mrs. Nola Taylor, i claimed the title. She too is 32 years old but 5V4 months older than Mrs. Redner. Other Oregon grandmothers who rank ahead of the national ! winner include Mrs. James Lea tham of Grants Pass who became i a grandmother last year at the age of 32 and Mrs. Jesse John son of Hugo who was 31 in 1954 ; when her first grandchild was born.
