1 A MAIL TRIBUNE, MedforJ, Or 1U Monday, June 22, 1959 Senate Leaders Seek To Forget Strauss Battle Washington-flJPD-The Senate Perikeratic and Republican leaders were willing today to forgive and forget the bitter ness of the Lewis L. Strauss confirmation fight. Democrat Lyndon B. John son and Republican Everett M. Dirksen sought to spike .the forecast of Sen. Albert Gore (D-Tenn.) that the sen ate's rejection of Strauss as Commerce Secretary might touch off a period of "extreme partisanship" between the White House and Congress. -Should Drop Matter Reliable sources said John son feels Eisenhower should drop the Strauss matter. John son believes President Eisen hower is wrong to assume that St?auss' 49 to 46 defeat last Friday was a personal slap or will discourage able men from accepting government posts. Dirksen said he did not see Strauss' ' rejection as a GOP campaign issue. He also said he did not make support of Strauss a Republican policy issue. He Conceded that he thought "we would have no real difficulty in effectuating his confirmation." Has No Quarrel As for the two Republican senators who voted against Strauss, William' Langer (N. D. and Mrs. Margaret Chase ; Smith (Maine), Dirksen said rhe had no quarrel with their motives. " - , The GOP leader said Eisen hower had a right to feel "chagrined and disappointed" that Strauss had been reject ed, the first presidential cab inet appointee the Senate has turned down in 34 years. But he said he recognized the right of the Senate, to refuse confirmation. .

There are' no posts to conceal their view. Construc tion of therena is echoless. The floor iseilmost as big as a football field. ' "If we had started from scratch, the Democrats could n't have had a better building for their, convention," says Welton Becket, the architect Edward island. "That's the way it was," he said. "My son wasn't drowned he was killed. His lungs were dry. The waves killed him. They picked him up and flung him against the boat. They perished him.". The winds churned waves that tore some fishing boats apart like match boxes. High tides smashed homes on both shores of the straits and lit tered the beaches with lobster pots, salmon nets and the de bris of smashed boats and houses. Edwin Cook, 27, said his father, Fraser Cook, lashed him to the mast of their boat as the storm blew uo. He said he watched helplessly a few minutes later as a giant wave swept over the boat and car ried his father off with it. The younger Cook was eventually washed ashore. Father, Sons Overboard Jack Ducette and his sons. Eve and Alphonse, were washed overboard from their boat and were in the water 25 minutes before they were picked up by fellow fisher men. "How they lived, we don't know," Fowlie said.- Their boat, carrying the body of the fourth crewman, was washed ashore: Y v o n Durelle, fisherman turned boxer, came home to Bay Ste. Anne for the week end from the camp where he is training for a scheduled fight with Archie Moore. "He wanted to go fishing," his wife said. "He even walk ed down to the wharf and I thought. I wouldn't see him until tomorrow. But he was back in a. half an hour, a bit sheepishly. He said he didn't feel like it. He thought he would stay home and play with the children. . - "I'm glad he did." r ' Sharks Spotted Off California Los Angeles - (DPD -Watches by pilots and lifeguards' along Southern California beaches paid off during the week end when sharks were spotted, and swimmers were warned to leave the water. At "Venice - part of Los Angeles - .lifeguards Sunday saw a small blue shark off the beach, and 2,000 swim mers fled the water. Attempts to harpoon the shark failed. At Long Beach a Coast Guard air patrol crew spot-' ted a 15-foot long shark 400 yards off the crowded strand Sunday. Swimmers were warned, and a power cruiser equipped with a harpoon was sent to the area. However, theshark.was , not found. - A fishing boat to the south off San Clemente netted a 285-pound killer white shark. Saturday. .

The arena, located hard against the 105,000-seat Les Angeles Memorial Coliseum, has nearly five acres under an elliptical-shaped roof that re sembles a flying saucer, is made of steel and reinforced concrete and will be gilded in mosaic tiles. The floor meas ures 150 by 234 feet and the ceiling is 75 feet above the foor at its highest point. No Posts in View - The two tiers have 12,000 permanent seats - without post in view and portable stands can be set up on the floor to bring the arena's seat ing capacity up to 22,400 which is more . than New York's Madison Square Gar den, Chicago's International Amphitheater, Louis v i 1 1 e's Fair and Exposition Center and San Francisco's Cow Pal ace. - Television cameras and lighting can be fitted into the elaborate network bt. over head catwalks the designers have provided. Delegates attending the I960 convention will probably be happy to learn about some of the fringe benefits now be ing developed for them by the joint city-county commit tee that sold their party on Los Angeles in the first place. Each of the delegations may have its .own bus in which to take sightseeing trips ; along the coast. The lure of a Cali fornia vacation was one of the Chamber of Commerce's sell ing points in its presentation and it is hoped that delegates will combine a vacation plan with politics by bringing along their families. Bus to Be Available The delegates will be hous ed in 17 hotels within 16 min utes, by car, of the Sports Arena, wnicn is located a block off the Harbor Freeway that connects with a complex of roads threading through the Los Angeles Basin. ,Those who do not have cars will be shuttled back and forth by bus. The Arena has parking spaces for 7,000 vehicles. Delegates should find the weather to their liking. Normal high temperature for the July convention-time is in the low 80's, with the thermometer dropping to 62 at night. Smog? July isn't much of a problem, according to the Air Pollution Control District rec ords. September ordinarily is the worst month for that eye- irritating haze. . Long Drives Routine Delegates wondering wheth er to bring, the family car along should bear in mind that in this car-conscious area, a 30-mile drive to a movie is fairly routine. After all, the city sprawls over a 450-square- mile area. It's 28 miles from Los An geles to Anaheim, where Dis neyland is located. Marine- land of the Pacific, an open air aquarium with performing porpoises and whales, is about 30 miles from downtown Los Angeles, in San Pedro. Holly wood -is about seven miles from downtown Los Angeles, but the studios are found in many sections of the Basin. Traffic? It's fast but, really, not as bad as the jokes try to make it seem. Unlike some other states, the pedestrian is king in California. Four lanes of traffic will stop for a lone pedestrian in a crosswalk most of the time. ' Despite the smog and the traffic, millions like it , here. And they hope their guests will like it, too. RESCUE TRY FUTILE .

Loren D. McKinley, mayor of Tillamook, telegraphed ask ing the McClellan committee to investigate the boycott. The second development was a decision of the National Labor Relations Board to dis miss an unfair labor practice against the Union. The telegram from McKin ley to Rep. Walter Norblad said the strike and boycott by the Teamsters "threatens the life of this famous and only agricultural product of the county." . Stores Picketed He said the Union threaten ed to extend the boycott to 11 western states. The Union is picketing stores which han dle Tillamook cheese. McKinley said the major fear of the stores is not in the handling of cheese "but in the fact that teamsters can affect their other deliveries." Teamster representative Bill O'Connell said he had been informed by letter of the dis missal of the charge against the union involving the Tilla-mook-Portland Auto Freight Co. The firm had complained that the union was trying to force drivers to quit handling Tillamook Creamery Associa tion products. ' Airliner Clips Fence on Landing New York (DPD - A British jet airliner clipped a 10-foot steel fence as it came in for a landing at Idlewilu airport Sunday. The Comet IV jet was damaged extensively, but made a safe landing without injury to the 45 passengers and crew aboard. Capt. John A. Kelly, pilot of the British Overseas Air ways plane, said it had expe rienced "a. pronounced sink ing" as it approached the run way. He said he believed it was caused by the turbulent effect of the wind blowing across the blast fence. "It wouldnt have happened if the blast fence hadn't been there," he said. The fence at the approach end of the runway was erect ed to protect motorists on an adjoining highway from the back blast of the landing jets. Passengers of the plane in cluded eight members of a Russian delegate headed by Soviet Vice Minister for For eign Trade I. Bolshakov, com ing here for the opening of the Soviet trade fair, June' 30.

His trip to Italy starts Tuesday. Its first four days will be filled with formal state ceremonies honoring the French-Italian victory over Austria 100 years ago.
