quest for two state tourney
berths. Some sources rate the
Pelicans the club to beat in the
race this year. Other feel that
Medford desire could give it the

successive season. KF with some
of the same players had been ex
pected to do better last year.

Eden's Resignation
Privately Welcomed
By Officials in U.S.
MEDF0RDfa1JTWBUNE
Washington OI.R) United
States officials today privately
welcomed Sir Anthony Eden's
decision to quit as Britain's
prime minister as a step toward
restoring U.S.-British relations
to their pre-Suez level.
Publicly there were warm ex
pressions from the White House
and the State Department for
Eden and concern over his
health. But by his resignation
officials said privately, Eden had
cleared the way for a strength'
ening of the Western alliance
and a revival of American-Brit
ish cooperation.
'Old Friend' of Ike
President Eisenhower, in a
White House statement, did not
express the usual "regret" over
Eden's resignation. But the Pres
ident referred to Eden as "an
old and good friend of mine."
He said he had developed a
"great respect and admiration"
for Eden as a "dedicated leader-
in the cause of freedom."
The President also said he is
sending Eden a personal mes
sage.
Secretary of State John Fost
er Dulles who had not always
seen eye-to-eye with Eden said
"It Is a matter of deep regret
that Sir Anthony Eden has felt
compelled to lay down the "ar
duous duties of his office be
cause of health." The secretary
spoke of Eden's "ability and ef
fective dedication to the cause
of freedom in the world and
unity between the free nations,
particularly between the United
Kingdom and the United
States."
Highly Regarded
Washington anxiously await
ed selection of a successor to
Eden. Lord Privy Seal R. A.
(Rab) Butler and Chancellor of
the Exchequer Harold MacMil
lan, both prominently mention
ed as Eden's successor, are high
ly regarded here. Either man
would almost certainly be wel
comed in the next few months
as a White House guest.

American visas while true reb

forced to enter the country on
parole.
Do-lf-Yourself
Enthusiasts Get Tips
Madison, Wis. (U.R) For you
do-it-yourself enthusiasts, a Uni
versity of Wisconsin farm me
chanics specialist has some tops
for professional-looking work.
Glenn Barquist offers the fol
lowing advice to would-be car
penters: Always sand in the direction
of the grain of the wood. Cross
grain sanding or circular sand
ing will mar the surface.
Don't use interior plywood for
outdoor jobs. Plywood or veneer
also should not be used for
cutting boards.
Use just enough paint or var
nish to cover. It's easy to put on
too much.
Choose the right size of screw
driver. A- screwdriver that's too
large will tear the wood-around
the screws. '
Remember a flat-headed screw
should be flush with the board,
not above it or countersunk, be
low it.
