Cardinal Sf rilch Said Satisfactory Rome it? Samuel Cardi nal Stritch, cheerful despite the loss of his right arm in an emergency operation, was kept under sedation today to ease the throbbing pain. Doctors said his condition was "most satisfactory" and church sources said he was "anxious to get back to work." Amputation of the 70-year-o 1 d American churchman's right arm above the elbow Monday apparently saved his life. A blood clot had cut off circulation to the lower por tion of his arm and gangrene had set in. A tube remained in the car dinal's upper arm to drain off waste. But medical sources said they expected no post operative complications. , '-"V-fa s Japanese Threaten Suit OverH-Bomb Tokyo (IP) A spokesman for the Yaezu Fishermen's as sociation said today it may sue the British government for damages arising from al leged nuclear-test damage to the Christmas island tuna fishing grounds. "It will be a matter of our existence if, because of the British nuclear tests, we are forced to seek other fishing grounds," the spokesman said. "If, as the British claim, it was a 'clean' H-bomb, why didn't they conduct their tests near England instead of in the Pacific fishing grounds?" London IIP) Britain an nounced that it exploded a "nuclear device" in the Cen tral Pacific today. CARDINAL STRITCH STRICKEN Samuel cardinal Stritch (center), Archbishop of Chicago, is assisted by two priests from North American College in Rome upon his arrival in Rome to assume post as co-leader of the Sacred Congregation for the Propagation of the Faith. The 70-year-old Cardinal was rushed to a hospital with a blood clot in the right arm described by Vatican sources as "serious." Management Urges 'Skull Sessions' Chicago (IP) A manage ment expert says supervisors must take a leaf from the notebook of the football coach and hold "skull sessions" with their employees. Max H. Forster of the Inter national Minerals and Chemi cal Corp., said such sessions should give employees a knowledge of their work and what is expected of them. Once the employees under stand what they are to do, Forster said, they must be given "guided practice" on the job. Like an athletic coach, a supervisor can point out mis takes as they are made, Forster told a conference on supervision sponsored by the American Management Asso ciation. Forster said the skull ses sion should be a sharing "6f information between super visor and employees. Then, he said, it is up to the super visor to see to it that the employees get specific prac tice in areas of weakness. Lincoln began his public career as a $25 a year postmaster.

HAYES United Press Correspondent San Francisco W A young man rises unsteadily to his feet in a noisy beer and wine bistro and makes a speech proposing a "right-not-to-work" law . . . A painter proclaims to friends in an attic' apartment bull session that if the Army drafts him again, "I'm not going ..." A poet reads against the discordant background of a jazz combo in a downstairs cabaret, "Let's go let's go let's go come on let's go emp ty out our pockets and disap pear into the Bowery missing all our appointments and turning up unshaven years later . . ." This is the language of the "Beat Generation" Men and women in their 20s and 30s who profess to be utterly dis illusioned with all moral, po litical and cultural values in America today. Anyone can belong. The membership includes leather jacketed motorcyclists,, poets, painters, musicians who play "cool" jazz. A few even oc casionally produce a poem or a painting. Most, however, bend their efforts toward gaining a solid grounding in the Bohemian 3 Rs "relax ing, revolting and reclining." On the Move San Francisco has become known as the headquarters of the Beat Generation, although many of the spokesmen are on the move across country, in Mexico, North Africa or France. Novelist Henry Miller calls these non - conformist young men a "more potent, stimula ting force than the most elo quent and vociferous artists." "Sick little bums" is what San Francisco columnist Art Cohn called them before he was killed in a plane crash. it says.'1 'Occasionally a writer of talent, or a musician of note, might climb out of the clutter, but largely what they create is garbage," wrote columnist Robert Ruark. Jack Kerouac, one of the main spokesmen for this a tomic age "Lost Generation," wrote in what he called his philosophical final statement: "I don't know and I don't care and it doesn't make any difference!" Michael McClure, poet, put it this way: "Being beat means putting down (rejecting) pos sessions for their own sake. It's a re-acceptance of feel ings. If I can't eat it, wear it, smoke it or sit on it, I don't want it." "Most of San Francisco's "Beat" live in North Beach, a thickly populated valley run ning between Telegraph and Russian Hills' northwestward to Fisherman's Wharf. It's traditionally the home of San Francisco's big Italian popu lation and Bohemian set. "The Place" The Beat, or hipsters as they call themselves,, migrate between Vesuvio's which of fers "booths for psychia trists," the Coexistence Bagel Shop, where only squares or der bagels, and a little bar on upper Grant ave. known simply as "The Place." The latter establishment is presided over by curly-haired Jack Langan, the bartender master of ceremonies and janitor. He also is working on a novel and a TV series. The regulars start dropping in at 4 p.m. A tall bearded youth in his middle 20s shuffles across the sawdust covered floor in thick-soled boots, sits down at a table and opens a paper back book of Shelley's works and sips six per cent stout. He is a poet. His poems are filled with surrealistic imagery and if asked what it means, he re plies irritably, "It means what PROSPECT Shower Given For Couple Prospect Friday evening, April 18, at 7:30, about 60 people gathered at the Com munity nan to nonor Mr. and Mrs. LeRoy Struck with a wedding shower.

Remember Mom .Sunday, May 11 .ggw Choos your C7-' MOTHER'S rjV SI CARDS from our complete selection 217 East Main - Medford A youth wearing a sport jacket with big elbow patches enters with a pair of bongo drums and begins tapping out a jungle beat at a 'table. He was formerly in advertising. Twist on Jim Crow A slender brunette who appears like, and is, a former sorority girl at a midwest university comes in with a good-looking Negro man. La ter, two other white girls en ter with Negroes for escorts and they are warmly wel comed by the others. This -is another aspect of "Beat" known as "Crow - Jimism." However, no Negro girls are seen. A youth in a corduroy jacket converses at the bar with a well-dressed couple, obviously, unbeat tourists. "Do you write." they ask. He an swers "Yes." and the next question is whether he has had anything published. Again, he answers yes and it so happens the young poet has a copy of his latest work with him. A sale is made for S2 or so. He sells only enough to keep him in funds for a day or two. Any more and he would be vulnerable to a "touch" by his fellow Bohe mians. Sometimes at closing time a half-dozen members of the group buy a gallon job of Bur gundy and have an impromtu party. This may be held in somebody's room, or "pad," on the steps of Coit Tower atop Telegraph Hill, or on the roof of an apartment building where they can yell as loud as the want as long as they don't stamp their feet. - Tomorrow The Poetry of the Beat.
