Urge Recognition
Of Red China
Portland (UPI) Recogni
tion of Red China by the Unit
ed Nations was urged in a
resolution adopted by the
Oregon Methodist Conference
Thursday.
The Conference, in voting
in favor of the resolution,
asked steps be taken "to ful
fill the responsibilities of the
free world, and the United
States in particular, for the
safety and well-being of refu
gees from the Chinese Com
munist dictatorship, especial
ly in Formosa."
Some Object
The resolution was passed
over the objection of some.
Max McMillen, attorney from
Grants Pass, said Red China
should be kept out of the U.N.
"for the very obvious reason
that we want to demonstrate
to the world that we are op
posed to the enslavement of
people of this world. Red
China is the antithesis of the
Christian way of life ..."
The Rev. Horace H. Mounts,
Beaverton, said "other nations
are going to move ahead and
face this issue. We have Rus
sia in the U.N. and if you have
observed the relationship that
exists between the United
States and Russia, you will
not that there is a great ex
change of ideas. I think this
is healthy." ,
Efforts Favored
The Conference also went
on record favoring local ef
forts to promote Sunday fam
ily day observance and clo
sure of businesses on that day.
It was explained that the
resolution made no reference
to present U.S. policy toward
Red China and was not sug
gesting recognition of Red
China by this country.

In Legion Fracas
Medford's Crater Lake Mo
tors American Legion baseball
crew seems bent on creating
suspense and giving the home
town fans a thrill. by waiting
until the last possible oppor
tunity to wrap up their con
tests. Last night Calvin Dean
swiped home with two out in
the seventh inning to break up
the tussle and give the Motor
men a 10 to 9 nod over the
Grants Pass Mock Ford Sales
in a non-league scrap. It was
the second time this week that
Medford had scored in the fi
nal panel to claim a decision.
Tally was tied at 9-all when
Crater Lake came to bat in
the seventh. Dean led off by
getting a base on balls from
GP tosser Roy Harris. He was
sacrificed to second by Ray
Konopasek and took third on
a passed ball. Garland Lowery
fanned but Wayne Thompson
was issued a walk.
Cal Dean Scores
On the double steal maneu
ver, Thompson headed for sec
ond, drawing a throw to that
base from Catcher Gary
Huneycutt. Thompson held up
in his dash, avoiding a tag out
at second base and Dean was
able to scoot across the plate.
There was no further attempt
to run down Thompson and
he never got to second base.
But neither was necessary for
the run wrote finish to the
hassle. .
The fracas was a loose one
over the first three innings
and tightened up over most
of the rest of the route. Grants

their bingles into a second in

Nagy Trial Said
Held Recently
Budapest (UPI) Hun
gary's freedom Premier Imre
Nagy and his co-defendants
sentenced to death for the
1956 uprising were tried in
Budapest "not too long ago,"
Hungarian State Prosecutor
Geza Szenasi said today.
All the defendants appealed
for clemency during the 12
day trial held in Budapest's
Supreme Court building, Sze
nasf told western newsmen
during today's session of Par
liament. -'
The clemency appeal
made according to Hungarian
law was turned down, he
added.
Under questioning, Szenasi
said the trial "was held this
year, not too long ago."
Earlier, he parried the
same question, saying faceti
ously that the trial took place
"before the verdict was
passed."
Ha refused, 'however, to say
exactly when the verdict was
handed down or when the ex
ecutions took place.
Szenasi maintained that the
trial was "not secret." He said
it was "closed" for reasons
of "state interest."
He said thathad the trial
been public it probably would
have been exploited by some
western countries to slander
and tell lies about Hungary.

bases on balls.
The Climate City 'team tied
up the fray in the fifth with
two markers on safeties by
Benner, Fox and Huneycutt, a
fielder's choice and two mis
cues. Relief thrower Harris held
Medford hitless over the last
four innings but issued five
bases on balls. Three of these

inning giving Medford a
chance to wind up the game
a half-inning earlier. But Dur
