Trip To Honolulu Honolulu 'P Douglas Hume and George Davies said they'd 'had enough sea for quite awhile , and even were a bit tired of 'each other's company Tuesday ; when they completed a 20-day voyage from Los Angeles to Honolulu in a 23-foot yawl. "It was only God's help that ! brought us through this thing." Isaid Hume, son of a West Los ; Angeles minister. Davis, also , from Los Angeles, said: "I was scared 50 per cent of the time." Bailed Constantly The two amateur sailors be gan their voyage on the "Pagan" more than four weeks ago at Newport Beach, Calif. They said they encountered a storm shortly after leaving and were forced to bail constantly for five days and nights. The storm was followed by three days of doldrums, accom panied by huge swells which at times threatened to swamp the craft. Finally they caught some sailing weather, but at no time did they pick up the usually prevalent northeast tradewinds which would have made the trip an easy one. Engine Fails To add to their grief, the yawl s engine failed, the ship's chronometer broke, hindering navigation, and they ran out of food four days before arriving, except for some rice, four vita min pills and two fish they man aged to catch. Veteran Honolulu yachtsmen, however, agreed Hume did a creditable job of navigation for a shallow water sailor. He was only five miles off course when the Pagan neared Oahu.

Civil Riqhts Bill Washington IF Senate F ; publican Leader William F Knowland predicted today that j the Senate will by-pass its Ju diciary committee to speed ac ! tion on President Eisenhower's j House-approved civil rights law. 1 Knowland made the predic ' tion to newsmen as Republicans j set out to take away from north ern and western Democrats the leadership in the fight for the civil rights bill. Different Procedure The strategy of the measure's supporters was to take advan tage of a parliamentary maneuv er to put it directly on the Sen ate callendar. Under usual pro cedure, it would be referred to the Senate Judiciarj' committee. Chairman James O. Eastland fD-Mis;.), and three other sou thern opponents of civil rights legislatiton. have bottled up a similar 'jill in the Judiciary commuiee for the past three months. Supporters feared the House bill would suffer the same fate in the committee. The Senate agreed to first reading of the House bill short ly after noon today. But Un parliamentary maneuvering was not expected to start until Thursday on the second reading. Southern Effort Loses The House approved the bill 218-126 Tuesday after eight days of debate, sometimes stormy. Southern opponents also lost, 158-251 in a final effort to weak en the four-point bill with a controversial jury trial amend ment. The preliminary skirmish in the Senate was not expected to last more than a few days at most. The parliamentary situa tion was shaping tip so that the southerners couldn't filibuster now. The showdown fight, which could last for weeks, probably will start next month.
