Crlcketl Touring beautiful Stanley Park In this metropolis ot Western Canada on the afternoon of Vic toria Day, we stopped at the Lion's Dale Cricket Oval. I The oval was about the size ot an American bail park, covered with grass of about the texture of golf green.- ' It was completely surrounded by spectators, standing or sitting " benches or lolling on the grass. A number of young men, attired in white like old-time tennis players, Were cavorting about, i The action was Incomprehensi ble, until a ruddy-faced, courteous gentleman, who turned out to be Mr. Brooke, who spends each Satur day at the matches, tabbed us as furriners. -' Cricket Is Just a bit like your American baseball, Mr. Brooke said. There are 11 men on a team: there are bowlers, like your pitch ers; there are batsmen, like your batters: there are wickets, while vou have bases: the game is played in innings, for outs and runs. i Each of the two wickets you see iut there. Mr. Brooke continued, has a bail (wooden block) on top f the three stumps (stakes), i The bowler throws from behind one wicket (with a short run and an overhand pitch sort of like a Softball pitch upside down) and the batsman stands by the other wick t. i The bowler tries to knock the bail off the stumps and the batsman defends it and tries to make runs. The catcher, we learned. Is the wicket keeper. The batsman can score runs by hitting and running to the other wicket, by putting one off the oval (this homerun counts four runs) or when there's a passed ball on the wicketkeeper. An out Is counted when a fielder catches a fly ball, when the bowler gels one past the batter and knocks the bail off the stumps, or, on a hit and run play, when a fielder knocks the bail off before the batsman can reach the other wicket You'll notice, Mr. Brooke point ed out. that our bowlers put a curve on the ball just like your pitchers. Sure enough. The bowler took a hop, skip and Jump, letting fly with an overhand whirl. The ball sailed in low outside, took a curve and a bounce and would hare hit the wicket. The batsman took a healthy cut. sent a grounder into the outfield and scored another run. You'll also notice, he explained, (hat there is no cheering. We watch quietly unless there is an unusually spectacular play. Then we applaud. Soon there was an out, as the bowler picthed one past the bats man and sent the bau living. That is eichl outs, our informant said. Two more and we'll retire for tea. Yes, all the players and all the spectators will go to yonder tea room . . . then we'll come back and have the second half of the inning. Our women folk had long since lost Interest and were clamoring from the cars. Reluctantly. . we thanked Mr. Brooke and bade him good day ... so we had arrived, gotten an inkling of the game and left, all in the top of the first with the score 123 to nothing, eight away and two to ro. That was our, initiation to crick et. We felt like letting out a cheer (or even a good of hog calli . . . but that wouldn't be cricket They'll Do It Every Time By Jimmy Hatlo poor - 5if'rrS?tT fVV--r25 Hospital I i m dT I GOT BACK OM "IT-IE (.!.2.AeUUTrletWRSSS--jt X'JlX OOSAUD TOED TO w 'vS WTAco COMtN TYr. i f CATCH UP WITH VbJ&V ( tSoS).

In tact, the picture couldn't be paint ed too black. 4 The American highway is one of the best examples of progress in reverse the world has ever seen. There you have a graphic illustra tion of the Imbalance of the world. The cars have so far outstripped the highways that there is no meth od o: comparison, we nave nun Hred mile an hour cars and thirty Churchmen Close Meet ALBANY. Ore. Ml The United Presbyterian Church will remain affiliated with the National and World Councils of Churches, com missioners decided Wednesday. The action was taken at the final session of the denomination's 94tb annual assembly here. Opposition to affiliation was ex pressed in pamphlets circulated before the vote on the issue. : The assembly also approved i revised reoort on social welfare. Much of the original report was rejected Including a portion which criticized the Chicago Presbytery for "doing nothing" about the race riots at Cicero, 111 , last year. "Dangers of marriages between persons of sharply differing relig ious backgrounds," was cited In the report and ministers were urged to discuss the matter with young couples planning marriage. A proposal for liberalizing the Church's stand on remarriage of uvorcea persons was turned down. . A committee reported a church membership of 217,644 last Dec. 31. The Church owns property valued at more than 56 million dollars and Indebtedness for Church buildines is a little more than 3 million, the committee reportea.

Get TAB KITH at any drux tor. e ' mile per hour highways. And driv ers that range all the way in be tween. -Construction delays tie you up. The dust chokes you. The exhaust from the trucks gags vou. The beat stagnates you. Flat tires plague you. (so do points, rotors and con densers. Ask me sometime) And still the people get ouf on the high ways by the millions. Literally. But of all the menaces on the highways the worst, and a rapidly growing problem. Is that of the house tralles. They have gotten progressively bigger and bigger, wider and wider, until they nudge the legal maximum, and slower and slower. There are a number of reasons for their being a men ace, none of them hard to remedy. First they are slow. Usually this is because a person buys a huge trailer and then tries to Dull It over the nignways in an under-powered car. All that happens is that he has a slow trip of it. ties up traf fic, and ends up with a burned out differential. If they must haul trail ers around why don t they get a car with sufficient power to man age uie mingy secondly the big models have a tendency to sway alarmingly at certain speeds. Indeed, one often wonders if you wm be able to pass at all without being broadsided off tne nignway. Then there is another threat, this time from the homemade iob that lumbers along in search of pleas ure. Like a porcupine shedding quills this family effort rocks down the highway shedding nails and screws to trap the following motor ist. Plenty of flats caused this way. Don't get the idea that I'm against the house trailer. I think it is one of the great inventions of the age. I wouldn't want one my self but if the others want 'em, fine, more power to 'em. But let's not let the trailers fall behind modern progress. Let's see that adequate provisions are made (by the manu facturers) for safety and comfort for others as well as the family inhabiting the plush job. And they are plush, too. Some of them I've seen are a lot nicer than a few houses I've lived in from time to time and a good deal bigger. NEW YORK if How much real democracy is there amous dog lovers? Quite a bit, according to bartend er Bill O'Brien, who forked over $50 to a customer for a puppy unit looked like a four-legged gray mop and has turned out to be a blue ribbon show dog.

O'Brien is night maestro at Mor iarity's mid town bar and grill, an establishment two doors from Toot Shor's that has become a rendez vous for newspapermen, dancers, singers, actors and musicians. One of his customers was Pat Hanrahan. an NBC electrician who often brought In one or two of the Schnauzer dogs be raises as a sideline. "I just got dog hungry looking at them." confessed Bill. He finally bought a male pup from Pat for $50 and iimired It was a real bar gain as Schnaurers, a kind of long haired German terrier, are grow ing in popularity in America and pasilv brinB $75 to $125. The eight week old ugly puppy looked like a handful of dirty strings with bright eyes. Bill named him Mike Murphy.

But he finally decided Mike Murphy ought to have his chance Flyer Averts Tragic Crash PITTSBURGH ( The pilot of a twin-engined, non-scheduled air liner who averted tragedy by vio lently sideslipping out of the paths of two smaller planes charged Thursday the craft buzzed him. The iarrine maneuver hospitaliz ed nine passengers and shook up 40 others. The plane was enroute from Wellington to Burbank. Calif. To cap his performance. CaDt. Henry Glaser of Chicago, set his Diane down smoothly on the un dented Alleeheny county airport late Wednesday night. Glaser told county police and civil aeronautics authorities that two propeller driven military planes buzzed him, forcing him to dive the plane to avoid a collision over Pittsburgh. He said: "Two military planes came shooting straight toward us. One of the planes reeled off but the other came ahead. I still don't know how he missed us." . Hsrry Swajiberg. 24. of Duluth. Minn., described the near tragedy th's wav: "People were thrown from their seats into the aisle and the baggage came toppling down on tOD of us. It was like belntr in a crazy house at a carnival." The flight was sponsored by the North Star Air Coach Co. although the actual operators were Carib bean-American Airlines. in the world. He paid a professional handler a small sum to give him a week's training. Mike was entered in the Westminster Kennel Club show in Madison Square Garden last Feb ruary, which is the world scries of dogdom. Mike Murphy, only 8 months' old and still really a puppy, strutted out to win the first prize for American-bred standard Schnauzers. Overwhelmed by this victory, BUI entered Mike soon after in another top-flight metropolitan canine show. But Mike, still growing fast, had become underweight for his size. He placed fourth. That has put BUI In a spot. He figures he let his dog down by en tering him too soon in his second show, but he doesni want to turn Mike over to trainers who see him as a potential best-of-breed champ ion. "I'd like to see him win another blue ribbon." Bill said. "Just to make up to him to see he nets a square deal. "But handlers sav they want a month to train him for his next show. Well. Schnauzers are sup- posed to be one-man dogs. But Mike is friendly to everybody. "If he is gone a month, he will no longer be my dog. It would be like giving up your own baby." Bill feeds Mike table scraps, ken nel rations and soft-boiled eggs cooked exactly three minutes, the wav Mike prefers them. Every day Bill walks four flights down from his Bronx apartment to exercise Mike by unleashing him and letting him race the New York Central commuter trains into Man-hattan. "The express trains speed right on by," said Bill, '"but Mike gets a big thrill out of catching up to a local train mat slops at tne station. He runs up and barks at It. and I an sure he feels he has run it clear out of breath all bv himself." O'Brien doesn't want to kick hi dog around, but he doesn't want to lose Mike by glamorizing him into a professional canine prizewinner After all. he's my dog." said Bill. "I don't want to turn him into a child star. I'd like to keep him unspouea. Student Drowns Near Ashland ASHLAND ( An Ashland youth, a student at Reed College. Portland, drowned In Emigrant Lake near here Wednesday. He was Richard C. Wilcox. 19. He sank whUe swimming with two companions who were unable to rescue him. WASHINGTON Tatt has one adxantage over Elsenhower: He's had more time to toughen his skin against criticism because he's bean ill politics lunger. This doesn't mean Tuft can't bo needled. His opponents already have dune one big needling lob on him bv saving the Republicans taut win with linn. It's pushed him into the position of insisting he can win. But, knowing how a man's akin can be made to twitch in public. Tuft nicked Elsenhower before the general had time to get out of hit Army battle Jacket and Into civil ian clothes. Lamenting the condition of the Air Force, Taft said in a speech that American air power had be gun to deteriorate several years ago while Elsenhower was chief of staff. It was such a clearly-aimed attack on Elsenhower II couldn't be overlooked bv the general or tl-.o newsmen who attended his last military news conference before leaving the Armv. The conference was billed as nnn-pnllllcal. Asked about Tad's statement, the general explained at length he believes a strong air force is of first importance and had always urged It. It was a natural answer and could be considered a military rcplv to a auction about military affairs. But Eisenhower didn't leave It there. He didn't mention Taft but what he said could be considered aimed at him. This is lust the start. It seems unllkelv that these two heavy' weights, each trying for a victory over the other so he can gel a cracg at the title, may quiet down and go !rf for Gentleman Jim stuff from now on. The contest between the Taft and Elsenhower camps already Is the Viost bitter Intra-Rcpubllcan party fight In years. It may become to bitter they'll slug each other out of the title bout altogether. In that case, some dark horse would cop the prize. One of the sadder aspects of the current world scene haa been tlio failure of Winston Churchill's Con servative government to make any real headway against Britain's host of problems. Dispatches from London paint a picture of gloom among voters and high government and party officials alike. The recent sequence of Labor Party victories In local elections has done nothing to dispel the mood. The London Economist, one of several publications normally sym pathetic to Churchill but now cri tical, recently summed up the sit uation: "This Is an Indecisive govern ment, and Inderislvenei;: Is the one quality that could be fatal. . . . When one asks where the blame for lark of decision Is to be found, the only passible answer la to point .to 10 Downing street." Perhaps the most unusual thing Is the readiness wlih which ao many kev Conservatives admll their failure. The tough British economic dilemma Is really no nearer solution than when they took office last October. LICSS ACTION Britain's problems are ao deep rooted that no sensible person looked for miracles. But seemingly there has been less action than un der the often-bewildered Labor re gime. Britons today are debating wheth er Churchill is a suitable leader for these times. Apparently the per sonal mcthoda of governing he used ao well In WorM War II are not particularly adapted to the present tortured period ol half war-half peace. The grand assurance he brought to Britain's war effort eludes him In today's tangle of (roubles, possibly his age 7 plavs a part In this Indecision. It may be too early to pronounce a verdict upon Churchill, but soma among his friendliest critics sug gest that by nature he was meant for war leadership and no other. They argue thai he Is at home with (he imperatives ot war, with blacks and whites, but not with the shades of gray which baffle the world statesman everywhere in 1M. QMTTING? However, this may be, Churchill obviously has no Intention of calling a new election soon, or even of handing over tho reins lo Foreign Secretary Eden, his most likely siiccensor. Now and then a rumor bobs up that he might yield the premiership after Queen Elisabeth II Is crowned next June. The 1951 Conservative campaign sounded promising nolra. There were to be a revitalized capitalism, with new stress on productivity aial modernized plants, an easing ol tne auaterlty. the plague ol controls that hns gripped BritUh life con tinuously since 1II3U and a clear, more courageous foreign policy fa vored with the old Churchllllaii gun to. Yet austerity la more firmly fat tened on Britain than ever, and hardly a alart haa been made to ward the other goals. By his own word It waa Church Ill's dream to steer Britain to recovery and a sure peace. This achievement he would prize above all. But his country Is growing res tive at the halting steps thus lar taken. Probably the venerable Con servative leader does not have loo many months more to demonstrate his capacity for adventurous lead ership through the complexities of semi-war.

Matthewi aald the trouble alert ed over disciplinary measures growing out of the discovery of hack saw blades and altempta by prlsonera to remove windows from the cell. He cut off mall privileges and randy deliveries.

Matthews, accompanied bv thraa deputies, went to the dormitory cell, occupied by 45 prisoners, and Blue Sky Law Petitions Here Petitions for a constitutional amendment prohibiting lotteries, bookmaking and parl-mutuel bet tinrr in Oregon have been received in Klamath Falls. The measure Is sponsored by the Oregon Council of Churches and petitions are being circulated throughout the state. If the necessary 26,000 signatures are obtained, the measure will be submitted to the people In the No vember election. Passage ot the bill would repeal the Oregon law which permits parl-mutuel betting at norse and dog iracxs in ine state. Among the most common com plaint today are piles or hem orrholds. This condition gets Us name from the nemorrholdal veins which lie around the outlet ot me Intestinal trad. When these veins become enlarged or dilated, tney produce the uncomfortable aymp- toms oi piles. The presence of blood around the intestinal waste Is one of the first symptoms. , Pain and Itching are common, but there are several oth er possible causes for such symp toms also. At first these symptom may be present only occasionally, but they tend to get worse as time goes on. In some cases clots form inside these enlarged veins, and this can be very painful Indeed. Once In a while the bleeding can be so se vere and long-continued that It will result In a true anemia. 11 Is not entirely clear why so many people are troubled with hem orrhoids. Chronic constipation la al most certainly responsible In some cases. Possibly the sitting posture which is Involved In so many oc cupations today also plays a part. Childbirth and heavy physical strains such as lifting certainly are not good for the person who has piles, and may nave something to do with their development. Hemorrhoids do not usually dis appear of themselves. They may get better for a while, and then return. It Is Important to avoid constipation. Some of the suppos itories especially recommended lor idea bring a certain amount of re let, but rarely cure the condition.

The super and new ones may develop unless intendent struck him with a tear the causes whlcn brought on tne: gas bomb he was holding original difficulty are also correct ed. Sometlmea Instead of cutting out and removing the piles, they are Injected with a solution which causes them to close by means of forming scar tissue. This la suitable for only some cases and the decision as to wheth er It in desirable must be placed In the hands of the physician In charge of the case. Hemorrhoids may be either In ternal or external or both. When they are Internal alone the only symptom Is llkelv to be bleeding. However, this Is not to be Ignored any more than the obvious ex ternal piles. Operation In skilled hands Is gen erally best: the Immediate r (feels are not comfortable and no one can guarantee that new hemorr hoids will not form, but the re sults are usually well worth the trouble.
