Pennsylvania Said 'Man To Watch' By LYLE C. WILSON United Press Correspondent Washington 'U.R On siidp judgment, the Democrats have come up with one new, bright 1JIyyjV? and shining face in the new 85lh Con- gress. If tne , R e p u blicans ; have a real po-: lilical comer; anions the new i members ol Cong res he ; has not yell emerged from i the obscurity of the crowd. The i new, bright and shining . Demo- i cratic face belongs to Sen. Jo- i seph Sill Clark Jr. of Perinsl-j vania. j Politicians often seek new faces with which to bait the ' voters much as fancy dress inak-1 ers seek new looks 111 clothes to bait style-conscious women. New faces to party poii'uciaris are political newcomers who i qualify in general for promotion j to higher office promotion to j the White House, for example. Politically Ambitious j This is not to say the Demo-i crats will go so far as to nomi- j nate a freshman senator for pres- i ident in I960. But, they might, j Clark has a lot of what it will j take to get that nomination, and I his record discloses him to be j a politically ambitious man. Among his qualifications are j these: . j He will be about the right age in 1960. during which he i will celebrate his 59lh birthday. j Americans for Democratic Ac-1 tion. a left-wing splinler group ! with great power within the i Democratic Party, claims CTaik ! as one of its own.

The I senator already is in step. Poliiical Giant Killer I Clark is a political Jack, the Giar.t Killer. His giant was the i Republican organization in Phil : adel-jiiia where, in 1951, he was 1 elected the first Democratic may- or in bis years. 1 The new senator comes from ; a big state matched only by Ca!i j iorrua and exceeded only by ! New York in electoral votes. I Clark fits the pattern of Miss j Democracy's more recent sweet- heart, excluding, of course, Har ' ry S. Truman. The senator is a Harvard graduate magna cum laude. ile is a member of Phi Leta Kappa. On that and other counts, Clark could qualify as an egghead. He is well off financially, and he's a lawyer. Whips Incumbent ufi Clark resigned as mayor of Philadelphia to run for the Sen ate against Republican incum bent James H. Duff and licked that once powerful Republican by 17,000 votes. That however, is the stoutest of Clark's claims fur luture consideration by the Democratic Party. While Clark was licking Duff by a few thousand votes, Presi dent Eisenhower was carrying Pennsylvania last November by a landslide margin of 600,000, and state Republicans were win ning both houses of the Legis lature. Pennsylvania began to slip its Republican moorings under pres sure of Franklin D. Roosevelt New Deal. Clark however, is the first Democrat- sent up bv Pennsylvania Democrats with any real chance of continuing to climb. The senator is a man to watch as the story of the 85th Congress unfolds.

UP A TREE Boscobel, Wis. U.R: Bearly Eyer's curiosity got the better of him when his dog kept bark ing after treeing a "cat.'' Eyers shut the treed animal and asked the Wisconsin Conservation De partment to identify it. It was a bobcat, a rarity in the southwest ern portion of the state.

FINNEY United Press Correspondent Washington (U.R) The Marine Corps disclosed today it soon will start an atomic-age streamlining of its divisions to give them greater mobility and a bigger punch. The streamlining plan is simi lar to one recently ordered by the Army. The Marine Corps said that its landing force of the future "will be somewhat smaller" in man power, "much lighter" in equip ment, "much faster on its feet and more powerful in terms of infantry weapons." The Marine Corps was unable to disclose immediately how much the size of its three marine divisions will be cut. Details of Navy Vessels Free From Antarctic Ice McMurdo Sound, Antarctica (U.R) Two U. S. Navy vessels trapped in Antarctic pack ice since New Year's Eve had freed themselves and are safe in the shelter of Cape Hallett, radio reports from the scene said to day. They were the U.S.S. supply ship Arneb which was crushed between massive ice floes and seriously damaged and the ice breaker escort Northwin which went to the assistance of the Arneb and was caught by the ice itself. The radio dispatches said the ships won their battle with the pack ice on Wednesday and broke loose after being trapped for three days. Both were re ported moored today to the bay ice in the shelter of Cape Hallett, five miles from the scene of then mishaps. The 12,800-ton Arneb, built originally as an attack cargo ship and refitted in 1949 for Antarctic operations, normally carries a crew of 247. A radio message from the Ar neb said repairs were being made but that "the entire length of the ships on both sides con sists of buckled and stretched plates with numerous missing rivets." It said damage included the loss of one blade from a pro peller and that part of another was missing. The Arneb's main task in sup plying the international geophy sical year base site at Cape Hal lett was being carried out while the crew worked to repair the damage. Cargo was being un loaded to allow access to the damaged hull. Police Learn Identify Of Hit, Run Victim Yreka A man who was struck and killed Dec. 29 by a hit-and- run vehicle on Highway 99 near the Hilt junction has been identi fied as Rafalle Mordasini, 60, Weed, Calif., according to the California highway patrol. Investigation showed Morda sini stepped off a bus Saturday night and had a cup of coffee at a nearby restaurant, then left the restaurant and was killed moments later. After police and an ambulance arrived at the scene, an ambulance driver was struck by another vehicle and knocked into a ditch. He was not seriously injured. Officers are still working on clues to determine identity of the hit-and-run driver. 0 Per Annum President Jig if f the reorganization are not yet complete and some features of the plan are still classified. Marine Division A Marine division presently totals 20,798 men a much heav ier force than an Army division. This division organization sprang from Marine Corps World War II experiences in frontal beach head assaults. But like the Army, the Marine Corps is finding that ' in the atomic era the emphasis ; is no longer on sheer weight in ; numbers but on dispersal and mobility, with the punch sup- j plied by atomic weapons. - i The Marine Corps also is changing its concepts about how the beachheads of the future will be attacked. Instead of a frontal assault by landing boats, the Ma rines envision a "vertical envel opment" of the enemy with the first waves landing behind the enemy defenses in helicopters. Along with the change in concept goes a need for lighter equip ment, and smaller, more mobile fighting units. The Marine Corps described the reorganization as "the most recent step in our evolutionary process in which we modernize by maintaining day-to-day readi ness for combat with or without nuclear weapons." To Meet Needs It said the reorganization is "designed to meet the require ments of war in the nuclear age and particularly the require ments of the amphibious assault by helicopter." The Marine Corps said that plans call for one Marine divis ion to begin reorganizing in the near future. Other Marine units will be reorganized on a phased schedule "to provide minimum interference with combat readi ness and to utilize new equip ment as it is developed and de livered," it said. A. spokesman said the First Ma rine Division stationed at Camp Pendleton, Calif., will be reor ganized first. In addition, he said, the 3rd Marine Air Wing, stationed at El Toro, Calif., will be reorganized in the near future. The Marine divisions presently have one atomic weapon the Honest John rocket. But Marine officials hinted that other atomic support weapons have been or will shortly be assigned to Ma rine divisions. In addition the Marine divisions have a closely aligned atomic support unit in the Marine air wings, which spe cialize in close support of Ma rine ground troops. The reorganization means that some heavy artillery units prob ably will be replaced with mis siles and rockets with an atomic capability. Some of the heavy tank units probably will be sup planted by lighter fire support vehicles, such as the ones armed with a battery of recoilless rifles. Sleep Greatest Cause Of Thruway Crashes Albany, N.Y. (U.R) The New York State Thruway Com mission has found that one of the greatest causes of accidents on the ultra-modern super-highway is sleep. Engineered to most modern standards of safe highway con struction, the highway has proved itself by its record of 2.81 deaths per 100 million miles of travel compared to a national average of 6.4. But the sleepy motorist seems to have upset the planners' ideas of safety. Of some 58 fatalities on the highway since it opened, 27 were reported by state po lice to be the result of falling asleep at the wheel.
