Propane Gas Seen as Cause of Ice Show Blast
Democrats Elect
Frances Valeo
As Secretary
WASHINGTON (UPI)-Fran-
cis R. Valeo, a mild-mannered
scholar from the big city, was
elected unanimously by Senate
Democrats Monday to succeed
Robert G. (Bobby) Baker as
their majority secretary.
Baker resigned the $19,600-a-
year post Oct. 7 when his wide-
ranging business ventures came
to light. The Senate Rules Com
mittee presently is investigating
to see whether conflict of inter
est laws were violated.
If the senators were looking
for an opposite type to succeed
Baker they found him in Valeo.
The 35-ycar-old Baker, came
out of the hill country of Pic
kens County, S.C., and learned
his politics in the Senate cloak
room from the time he was a
14-year-old page boy.
Native of Brooklyn
Valeo is a 47-year-old native
of Brooklyn, N.Y. Unlike Baker,
he is almost shy and his politi
cal knowledge is mostly acad
emic. He took a degree from
New York University and de
veloped his academic speciality
Asia while serving in the
China-Burma-India theater dur
ing World War II.
After postwar graduate study,
Valeo joined the Library of
Congress foreign affairs depart
ment as an Asia specialist. He
soon met Senate Majority Lead
er Mike Mansfield, D - Mont.,
also an Asia specialist. Valeo
was later loaned to the Senate
Foreign Relations Committee,
then went to work for Mans
field as his assistant in 1959.
Valeo was named to his new
post shortly after Baker resigned.
INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) In
vestigators said Monday night
propane gas probably caused
the Halloween coliseum explo
sion that killed 68 persons but
they said they do not know
what ignited it.

in the commissary, rocked the
coliseum, Bernard Sweeney,
chief investigator for the In
diana state fire marshal's of
fice, said after Monday's 10-
nour hearing.
But ht said it was an explo
sion "from factors unknown."
Leak Not in Evidence
Sweencv said there was "nn
definite evidence" that indi
cated a rupture or leak in any
of the five liquid petroleum gas
tanks which were imnnnnHnH
from the tons of debris inside
the coliseum.

of 4,600 persons was watching

Tank Said Upright
He said the witnesses used
such words as "vapor," "fog,"
and "steam" to describe the
circumstances. But he said
there was no indication that
anyone was touching the tank
when the vapor or fog was first
seen, and the tank was up
right. The last witness, Cecil Lonas,
Indianapolis, a part-time em
ploye at the Coliseum, told re
porters after the hearing that
he saw smoke coming from the
tank. Lonas said all he knew
was that "Shorty" (Wilbur

gas, and they ran out. .
