It all came about during the ninth inning of a game be tween Cuba and Venezuela which settled the Caribbean Series championship. ' Venezuelan fans began jeering Cubans pitchers who were warming up in the bull pen. The .Cubans replied by throwing dirt toward the peo ple in the stands. Capt. Francisco Guerra, the commissioner of sports in Cuba who accompanied the team here, rushed to the bull pen where a throng of play ers and umpires had gathered because of the commotion. Guerra attacked a United Press International photogra pher when he attempted to take pictures. y When the melee threatened to get out of hand, the police used their billies on the um pires. That put a damper on the fray, which finally ended when, another group of police officers joined the scene and ejected their brother police officers from the ball park.

S. and Russian scientists have recorded extra ordinarily high winds in the atmosphere the American Meteorological Society meet ing was told here. Charles L. Jordan of Flori da State University said air borne balloons showed unus ually strong winds of 255 miles per hour at 9,000 feet over Bermuda, on March 28, 1955. Adam Kochanski of the Air Force's Air Weather Service said Russian records for July, 1957,. the first month of the International G e o p h y s ical Year, showed" exceedingly strong westerly winds o f about 120 miles an hour oc casionally occurred at heights of some 18 miles above the earth's surface. Normally the winds at this level are easter ly at about 25 miles an hour. High Variations Kochanski also reported that the Russians had found unexpectedly high variations in temperature at the 18-mile altitude, ranging from 136 de grees below zero Fahrenheit to only 1 6 degrees below. Such a large variation means extreme density changes at this height. He said the Russian IGY records for one month con tained 1,960 temperature ob servations and 325 wind ob servations for levels 18 miles and higher. Twice daily rec ords made by instrument-carrying, high-flying balloons at 70 stations are available, he reported. Wilderness Status Proposed for Area The forest service has an nounced plans to classify 422, 925 acres of the Cascade Mountain range around Gla cier Peak in Washington as wilderness area, according to J. Herbert Stone, regional for ester. Public hearings prior to fin al action have been scheduled in Bellingham, Oct. 13, and Wenatchee, Oct. 16, it was reported. Persons desiring to express their views may do so in person at the hearings or submit their written com ments by writing to the re gional forester, Box 4137, Portland 8, not later than Oct. 30 with a request that it be included in the official rec ord. Inside the proposed wilder ness area are more than 30 peaks above 8,000 feet in el evation. Numerous snow and ice fields are prevalant among the higher peaks and ridges. Wilderness status prohibits roads, timber harvesting and commercial occupancy under special-use permit. SAFETY TIRE featuring the strongest tm ill You Can Keep Time By The Flowers Many flowers have an open ing and closing time which is kept just as regularly as a place of business. Back before the invention of watches and clocks, people who were observant ascer tained the time of day by the closing or opening of certain blossoms. Over a, period of time the old philosophers and students found that many common plants had a definite time when they went to bed, and when they opened shop for the day rain or shine. There ' are some blossoms that are true sun worshippers and follow the sun's path ac ross the sky, by keeping their faces constantly facing it. Such a one is the sunflower. There are others which ac tually close up when the sun goes under a cloud, rapidly unfolding their pedals again when, the cloud passes. Some are Fooled Some, like the moonflower, which ordinarily blossoms on ly at night, are iooled by a cloudy day and open up and try to do business. Even this ruse however, does not fool the morning glory. It remains closed even though the moon light is very bright, and sel dom is tricked into opening before five in the morning. Peculiarly enough, five, or very shortly thereafter is the scheduled time for this twin er to open shop for the day. Twelve hours later, at 5 p.m., the morning glory has had enoughand it closes up. The African marigold opens promptly at 7 a.m., and closes between 4 and 5 p. m., re gardless of the temperature or whether the sun is shining or not. The common field marigold has bankers' hours; it opens at 9 a.m., and by 3 p.m., has completed its day's work, and closes up until the following morning. Some flowers are not so punctual about their opening, but stick pretty close to the line about their closing time. The common nasturtium may be very careless regard ing its opening but religiously shuts up shop at 6 p.m. It's Punctual The four-o'clock received its name because of its punc tuality. It waits until 4 p.m. The night-blooming cereus is a little careless; as long as it gets its huge white blos soms open between 10 p.m. and 5 a.m., it seems perfect ly happy about it.
