TREDDORE B. KUCHEL MAX BESLER LEONARD KREIDT STANLEY JONES NEIL STANLEY G. E. MELLEN RALPH ROULAND DON YOUNG Keep the boys guessing... Congressmen reached widely differing conclusions today as result of President Truman's remarks about leaving the door open for him to run for his old Senate seat instead of seeking another White House term. His mention of the Missouri situation only fogged the picture for the crystal ball gazers. But these did appear to be general agreement about one thing—that Mr. Truman probably planned his words to add to the mystery regarding his plans. No one professed to know for sure, but there were renewed predictions Mr. Truman (1) will seek re-election to the presidency, (2) won't run for anything, (3) very well may bid for the seat he once held as a Missouri Senator. The president himself revived talk about the Missouri Senate seat. He did so by telling his news conference late yesterday. Truman might go into the Senate race. This source, who asked not to be named, said the idea "is not one to be brushed off lightly—it's in the picture all right." But Senator Anderson (D-NM), a close friend of the president, said he still believes Mr. Truman will run for the White House again. Senator Sparkman (D-Ala) exclaimed "oh gee" when he got the news of the Missouri-Senate aspect of the situation. Then he scratched his head and said: "He sure plays an interesting game of it, doesn't he? My own personal view is that he is not going to run for anything, but he is having a lot of fun out of it." Senator Alken (R-Vt) put it this way: "I think he's kidding about the Senate. He's not going to give up Administrator Mike Di Salle buckled all sorts of discontent in his battle to hoop prices, he has never lost quenchable humor. The other day he came handsome, unhumorous Bricker of Ohio, Republic, the following conversation place: "Say, I was thinking about your job," announced Salle. "I just wanted to tell you liked it." Flabbergasted, Bricker ed, finally said: "I didn't like it very first, but I've got so I like it." Maybe I should try to away from you," joked Danny and after a few more please hung up. More The Situation Though Howard McGrath talked his way out of resign attorney general, the Jpst partiment has not moved in the unique fact that Frankie Costello's company hired a U.S. attorney. The U.S. attorney is Luther of Kansas, who became resident agent for the Re Co., of Russell, Kans., owner Larry Knohl, the tax fix gambler Frankie Costello. Undoubtedly Luther got the operation without knowing what the score was. He asked by Knohl, before the ter made headlines, to order an oil company in Kansas him. And since U.S. attorneys are permitted to handle government matters, he did Furthermore, he continued... No one professed to know for sure, but there were renewed predictions Mr. Truman (1) will seek re-election to the presidency, (2) won't run for anything, (3) very well may bid for the seat he once held as a Missouri Senator. The president himself revised talk about the Missouri Senate seat. He did so by telling his news conference late yesterday he will announce his plans before the filing deadline for the constitutional primary in Missouri, which is April 29. That at least may have pushed ahead the date for announcing his decision. Previously he had promised only that he would disclose his intentions before the Republican party's presidential nominating convention, which starts July 7. But it did nothing to provide any solid clue to what the president is going to do. Yesterday's remarrow all started when Mr. Truman was asked whether he would run for the Senate in Missouri if he decides not to run for the presidency again. After replying he couldn't answer that, the president was asked if he was leaving the door open for a possible Senate race. Yes, he was, the president replied, adding that the door is always open in politics. One Congressional source familiar with Missouri politics told a reporter he is convinced there is "a very real possibility" Mr. Hal Boyle By RELMAN MORIN (For Hal Boyle) NEW YORK (UP)—Looking down one wing of the news room here, I am observing a tableau of protest. There are between 20 and 30 men in range of vision. About two-thirds of them are coatless, with shirt sleeves rolled. Some are working, open-throated, having unbuttoned their collars and slipped the necktie downward. Moreover, it is neither handsome—take a look at the drab, total impression created by a mass of men—nor is it functional. If it were, men wouldn't get out of their coats, ties and collars at the first opportunity. So, why this costume? I used to think it was the result of vast conspiracy between the cloth-makers, tailors, designers, middlemen, etc... Obviously, the more fabric, leather and gadgets they can pile on the male chassis, the better for the stockholders. Undoubtedly Luther got the operation without knowing what the score was. He asked by Knohl, before the ter made headlines, to order an oil company in Kansas him. And since U.S. after are permitted to handle government matters, he did Furthermore, he continues serve as Kansas agent for company even after Knohl name and picture was heard all over the nation as he tried to fix the Friedus tax and for having arranged a airplane commission for Candle. Last month, and only after Internal Revenue collection New York asked U.S. office Kansas to file tax liens to Knohl, did Luther say that would resign immediately. The Justice Department queried, said it knew no about the matter. It would however, that the Justice Department would not only ask to explain the matter but also amine all other outside conditions of all other U.S. attorneys. Note—Knohl and Costello several oil leases in and a Rice county, Kansas. Cost share in the deal nots him $48,000 a year. Split Command One factor influencing the Churchill-Truman decision was some split-command experiences World War II, especially the tie of Java Sea. There, Admiral Tommy Hear first commanded the Allied but was relieved following I protests that while Hart cuvered, the Japs built up fleet. Replacing him, a Dutch miral, Conrad E. L. Helfrich, command. Under the Dutchman were Adm. William Glassford, Rear Adm. Francis Palisher manding British units, and Adm. Karel Doorman, who NEW YORK (UP)—Looking down one wing of the news room here, I am observing a tableau of protest. There are between 20 and 30 men in range of vision. About two-thirds of them are coatless, with shirt sleeves rolled. Some are working, open-throated, having unbuttoned their collars and slipped the neckties downward a few inches, as well. Oh, my brother, as Hal Boyle would say, here is a pitiful little rebellion! Here is an eloquent expression of what men think of the modern male costume. Here is the grim effort to escape from the "business suit" and its accessories, which feature built-in discomfort, squeezing and strangulation, guaranteed to last. Men's clothes are the supreme idiocy of the 20th Century. For instance, consider your neck and throat. An inordinate amount of tender care and attention has been lavished on them by the tailor, the shirt-maker, and the necktie salesman. Your tie has at least three folds of cloth, your shirt four, and your coat collar a modest two, but thick and heavy. This adds up to nine layers of wool, cotton and silk or substitutes, tightly wrapped, scratching, strangling, blocking arterial traffic, increasing body temperature and raising proper hell. Fully dressed, you are lugging around between 10 and 15 pounds of fabric and leather. This is at least three times the weight of the average costume of a woman. their coats, ties and collars at the first opportunity. So, why this costume? I used to think it was the result of vast conspiracy between the cloth-makers, tailors, designers, middlemen, etc. Obviously, the more fabric, leather and gadgets they can pile on the male chassis, the better for the stockholders. But designers tell me that isn't a fact. They say that many people, both men and women, have had a try at devising a more sensible dress for men. None has ever taken hold. For instance, the Australian "bush-jacket" is an eminently practical garment. It combines the functions of the shirt and the coat. It has short sleeves, an open throat and is worn outside the trousers. It is about coat-length and loosely belted at the waist. It lets a man breathe around the equator and the neck and shoulders. Versions of it have been attempted in this country, the designers say, but they were never successful. Nobody knows the reason. There is a suspicion that the average man is far too timid to break away from convention. But it may be the little woman who insists that her man look as much as possible like all other men, and through pressure, silent and otherwise, compresses him into the same old mold, year after year. The only hopeful sign I have noted seems to have originated in California, around Hollywood, where the necktie is disappearing rapidly, even in offices.

William Glassford, Bear Adm. Francis Palisher manding British units, and Adm. Karel Doorman, who manded at sea. However, Admiral Doorman a heroic officer, was not experienced in commanding a fleet; so when the Exe struck in the engine room, forced out of line, Doorman turned out of line with This was the signal for every other ship to turn out of life after which there was no unified action. Dutch, British and U.S. ships scattered, became the of bands of Jap destroyers. It a tragic defeat. After the battle, British miral Palliser announced he withdrawing all British units mediately. "Put," remolctrated Adm. Helfrich, "your orders were serve under me." "My orders," replied the Brit commander; "are to serve us you until the situation becomes be the trend will spread. Personally, I believe a wonderful campaign plank is in heels in this for 1952. A man who promised reform men's clothing ought to sweep country. O course, he would sticking his neck out, and this not good politics. WASHINGTON—Though Price Administrator Mike Di Salle has bucked all sorts of discouragement in his battle to hold down prices, he has never lost his unquenchable humor. The other day he called up handsome, unhumorous Sen. John Bricker of Ohio, Republican, and the following conversation took place: "Say, I was thinking about running for your job," announced Di Salle. "I just wanted to ask how you liked it." Flabbergasted. Bricker besitated, finally said: "I didnt' like it very much at first, but I've got so I like it now." "Maybe I should try to take it away from you," joked Di Salle, and after a few more pleasantries, sung up. More The Situations Though Howard McGrath has talked his way out of resigning as attorney general, the Justice Department has not moved regarding the unique fact that one of Frankie Costello's companies has hired a U.S. attorney. The U.S. attorney is Lester Luther of Kansas, who became the president agent for the Rean Oil Co., of Russell, Kans., owned by Harry Knohl, the tax fixer, andumbler Frankie Costello. Undoubtedly Luther got into the operation without knowing what the score was. He was asked by Knohl, before the latter made headlines, to organize an oil company in Kansas for him. And since U.S. attorneys are permitted to handle non-government matters, he did so. IN THE DAYS OF IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO From the Plies of Anaheim Gazette By MRS. HENRY KUCHEL 75 Years Ago January, 1877 All the stockholders in the Anaheim Hotel and Building Association paid up their assessments, so that the shares advertised were not sold. The company is now entirely free from debt, and its assets are some valuable real estate, a two-story dwelling house and one million bricks—property which ought to sell for about $12,000. It rained in San Francisco yesterday. Mr. John Fischer has purchased the interest of Mr. Arthur Heimann in the Planters hotel. Dr. J. H. Vocum moved to his new residence, corner of Palm and Centre streets yesterday. Mormon George won the race at Santa Ana yesterday. Over one thousand dollars changed hands. The large amount of freight discharged at Norwalk and other way stations made the train from Los Angeles a few minutes late last night. The Express says "there is no disguising the fact that small-pox has got a much greater start in the city (Los Angeles) than it ought to have received. The demand for the Santa Paula flour is steadily increasing and ing just eaten about a fresh strawberries which ed from the vines that he did not care for any. Drs. Gregory and Mc open a new drug store minister. General Stonerman says that 1847 was one of the best years he ever knew in California, notwithstanding that no rain fell until the 26th of January. Night watchman Bohn on Wednesday night discovered an individual attempting to effect an entrance into the Planters' hotel. He gave chase but the superior agility and darkness favored the burglar and he made good his escape. There was no northern mail last night, the train between San Francisco and Los Angeles being detained by some accident. The Board of Town Trustees met yesterday afternoon all the members being present. The treasurer was absent and hence no report. Marshal reported that he had taken possession of the town jail and had it cleaned, also that he had arrested one law-breaker who had been sent to the county jail (Los Angeles). The finance committee recommended that a tax of twenty-five cents on the hundred dollars be assessed at once, the assessment list to be delivered to the Clerk by Feb. 1 and be was relieved following Dutch tests that while Hart mantered, the Japs built up their attack. Replacing him, a Dutch address, Conrad E. L. Helfrich, took command. Under the Dutchman were Rearman William Glassford, USN; Adm. Francis Palisher commanding British units, and Rearman Karel Doorman, who commanded at sea. However, Admiral Doorman, heroic officer, was not experienced in commanding a large attack; so when the Exeiler, back in the engine room, was seized out of line, Doorman seized out of line with her. He was the signal for every ship to turn out of line, where there was no unity action. British, British and U.S. warwars scattered, became the prey lands of Jap destroyers. It was a tragic defeat. After the battle, British Addler Palliser announced he was drawing all British units imimately. Out," remoltrated Admiral Rich, "your orders were to under me." My orders," replied the Briticaner, "are to serve under until the situation becomes The trend will spread. Personally, I believe a wondercampaign plank is inherent in for 1952. Man who promised reforms in clothing ought to sweep the ery. O course, he would be going his neck out, and this is good politics. The Express says "there is no disguising the fact that small-pox has got a much greater start in the city (Los Angeles) than it ought to have received. The demand for the Santa Paula flour is steadily increasing and we are told by Messrs. A. Guy Smith & Co., that their sales are something more than a carload a month. The sanitary condition of Los Angeles is so bad that it is proposed to call a meeting of citizens to urge the Council to adopt some effectual measures to protect the health of the city. There is something wrong with the postoffice department south of Anaheim, as our customers at Capistrano did not receive their papers last week, while we have proof positive that they left this office as usual. A. T. Hawley is lying dangerously ill at Santa Monica. Mr. H. Nabury, one of the directores of the Bank of Anaheim arrived here from Los Angeles hopeless." "And what do you propose to do, Admiral Glassford?" Helfrich asked. "I remain at your service," replied the American. This and other wartime experiences have made the admirals extremely leery of foreign naval commanders. Marshal reported that he had taken possession of the town jail and had it cleaned, also that he had arrested one law-breaker who had been sent to the county jail (Los Angeles). The finance committee recommended that a tax of twenty-five cents on the hundred dollars be assessed at once, the assessment list to be delivered to the Clerk by Feb. 1 and be open for inspection until the 6th of February, at which the Board of Trustees shall meet and sit as a Board of Equalization. Said tax shall be due on March 1 and be delinquent on April 1, at which time a penalty of five per cent shall be added. All sums not paid by April 10, shall be collected by the marshal. A motion to hold Board meetings on the first Friday of each month was carried. The report of the Ordinance committee was then taken up and 12 ordinances passed. Justice Alex Bailey was chosen as Justice of the Peace to act as Recorder and his bond was fixed at $500. The Board then adjourned to meet next Friday at 2 o'clock p.m. Mr. J. K. Tuffree, agent for the pasture lands on the Stearns ranches, has removed his office to Langenburger's store. There are always a large number of small boys gathered around the depot upon every arrival of the trains. We shall not be surprised if an accident befalls some of them as the practice is a dangerous one. Mr. J. Torrey of Wystminster, was in yesterday. We offered him some dried potatoes. He said he was much obliged to us, but hav- TV-RADIOLOGIC Ada Leonard TV Program Takes on Improved Format By TOM E. DANSON HOLLYWOOD — The charming and talented Ada Margaret Leonard who might very well be called "Miss Show Business," at last has a chance to display new and improved talents in her show which will no longer require the beauteous ferrice and hand-leader to play nursemaid to teen-agers, as was the case during her "Search for Girls" program. A slightly different neckline and a bit of her neatly turned ankle can now be injected into the format, and with this gal, it should be sexsationas. There are few branches of the entertainment field that Ada hasn't tackled at some time or other, since she was figuratively "born in a trunk" to trouper parents during a "split week" in Lawton, Okla. Ada and her sister and brother became part of the family theatrical company as soon as they could be carried on stage. She made her first solo appearance at the age of 2, when she sang one of the popular songs of the day in a childish treble. At the age of 11, when the heroine of one of her father's plays became ill, Ada stepped into her shoes, playing a dramatic role. The family act, which had run the gamut from tent and tab shows to a vaudeville act, broke up when Ada was 13 and she joined a variety group touring the United States. She later left this troupe for individual billingments from one nighters to hotel spots lasting several months. Several years ago, Ada pulled out of the band business to make a series of solo appearances as a singer and dancer in the supper club and hotel circuit, later appearing in several movies for R.K.O. "Television is a medium that I thoroughly enjoy," Ada told me, "and with this new restyling of my show, I feel that it will be more interesting than ever."
