Propaganda made to order ... The High Army brass in Korea has displayed an astonishing talent for making a mess, starting with the capture of Brig. Gen Francis T. Dodd and in all that followed. First the general commander of the prisoner of war camps on Koje Island, let himself get maneuvered into a position where his communist prisoners could take him. Then his successor had to dicker for his release. This was Brig. Gen. Charles P. Colson. Eighth Army Commander Gen. James A. Van Fleet bounced Dodd while he was still captive and replaced him with Colson. Colson didn’t last long. He’s been bounced too. To get Dodd back alive, Colson agreed to such extraordinary concessions that the flabborgasted chiefs of staff in Washington want a fast explanation. The Dodd capture and the Colson concessions were amazing no validity whatsoever.” Clark said Colson had no authority “to purport to accept any of the vicious and false charges upon which the communist demands were based.” Colson, among other things, said: “I can assure you that in the future the prisoners of war can expect humane treatment.” This made fine propaganda for the communists in their truce talks. They naturally interpreted it as meaning the prisoners had been getting inhumane treatment. A Defense Department official in Washington said this wording gave a wrong impression of POW treatment. And it was pointed out the Red Cross had plenty of chance to examine the kind of treatment given POW’s. Colson’s agreement said further: “There will be no more fear by Tom Harmon Stirling His Famous Number By 100 HOLLYWOOD — Tom Harmon is being followed! He told me himself last week. The sports rector for the CBS—owned northern California radio outfit KNX, has a very fond affection for the number “98”—and the ball fans all over the country know why. He made the number mour when, as a member of the gridiron squad of the University of Michigan in 1938-39-40, wore it on his back when he plunged and passed for the scout touchdowns that made him one of the greatest All-Americans a winner of the coveted Heisman trophy. It was the first and only number Tom ever wore, he so given to him the first time he went out for football at Gary, Ind., High School. Since the days of try-and-stop-Hommon, his high school, his universally and the Rams professional football team have retired that number. No one will ever wear it, as a tribute to the manner in which Tom made it so well recognized. But now, its still with him. In the recent reorganization offices at Columbia Square, headquarters here for CBS, Tom moved his sports almanacs, typwriter and framed pictures for walls, into a new room, across court from where he has been working. The number on the door next his office is “63.” Across the hall it’s “65.” But on Tom’s door the number—that’s right—“98”. Van Fleet bounced Dodd while he was still captive and replaced him with Colson. Colson didn’t last long. He’s been bounced too. To get Dodd back alive, Colson agreed to such extraordinary concessions that the flabbergasted chiefs of staff in Washington want a fast explanation. The Dodd capture and the Colson concessions were amazing enough. But the Eighth Army headquarters then added to the confusion by trying to wrap a little secret around what had happened. Newmen at first weren’t allowed to see Dodd at all after his release. The explanation: an investigation was being made. Then Dodd was permitted to read a prepared statement on his capture but couldn’t answer newsmen’s questions. Even so Dodd managed to get into conflict with the new boss of the whole Korean fighting Gen. Mark Clark who—as secretary to Gen. Matthew H. Ridge war—arrived in Tokyo just in time to inherit the mess. Dodd said the concessions agreed to by Colson were of minor importance. But Clark later said the Colson concessions were made under duress and were “unadulterated blackmail and any comments made by General Colson as a result of such demands should be interpreted accordingly.” And today Clark said the agreement made by Colson “has interpreted it as meaning the prisoners had been getting inhumane treatment. A Defense Department official in Washington said this wording gave a wrong impression of POW treatment. And it was pointed out the Red Cross had plenty of chance to examine the kind of treatment given POW’s. Colson’s agreement said further: “There will be no more forcible screening or any rearming of prisoners of war in this camp, nor will any attempt be made at nominal screening.” Here the same Defense Department official said the Joint Chiefs of Staff had never heard of any rearming of prisoners and as for the screening of prisoners—the JCS had ordered that stopped a couple of weeks ago. This screening has been a sore point with the communists conducting the Korean truce talks. They had acted as if all their people captured by the U.N. would want to go home to them. But U.N. checked, or screened, the prisoners and reported that only 70,000 out of 170,000 said they would go back if released. In fact, the U.N. reported, the rest said they’d forcibly resist being sent back. From start to now this has been a poor show. It has provided the communists with propaganda literally made to order. Meanwhile, everyone wants to see what the full explanation is, if there is one. IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO From the Files of Anaheim Gazette By MRS.

Meanwhile, everyone wants to see what the full explanation is, if there is one. WASHINGTON — The future Army career of Brig. Gen. Frank Dodd is not bright. He may be shipped to Okinawa. What made the Pentagon dious was that carelessness by his resulted in his capture just at time when Washington had carefully worked up an international plan to break the truce deadlock. President Truman had announced to the comunists and the world that not a single further prisoner concession would be given. By pre-arrangement, the top leaders of France and England made the same ultimatum. These statements had been carried fully into hit the front page of every paper in the world, including newspapers behind the Iron Curtain. But, just at the climax, Generals Dodd's capture swept the true 75 Years Ago May 1877 A Grand Circular wolf hunt will take place at Artesia on Sunday. A call will be given in the evening at the new hall in Norwalk. John Bush's hens are disposed to be literary fouls. Some time ago one of them produced an egg on which the letters T. D. were plainly visible and yesterday another hen succeeded in laying an egg embossed with the letter M. One of the latest novelties to the sheep shearers is the photograph gallery. We encountered several Indians yesterday who were admiring photographs of themselves. Pete Richards arrived in town last evening from San Luis Obispo. The Republican says that the opium dens of Los Angeles are visited by white men and women. Mr. Beach of Spadra has secured flowing well at a depth of fifty-eight feet. 50 Years Ago May 1902 Anaheim high school track team was victor over the Arcadian track team of Los Angeles in the field day trials held on the local grounds Saturday, by a score of 24 to 21. Paul Turck was the sensation of the day. He participated in seven events, taking first honors in each. Turck jumped 22 feet 9 inches. The amateur record is 21 feet 8 Inches. Dean Cromwell, captain of Occidental college track team accompanied the Anaheimmers and held the stop watch along with Mr. Remmel. Frank Dyer and Fritz Yungbluth held the tape at the outcome. The Arcadians had a five foot lead at the start. Half way down the line Turk passed the foreigners and crossed the line 10 feet ahead of Raney, Walker third and Stone fourth. Others participating in the meet were Midget Mills, Stone, Bradford, Wickerin and Sheldon for Anaheim; Walker, Raney, Clay, Potts and Lee for the Arcadians. A reception and ball was tendered the visitors in the evening at the Del Campo. 25 Years Ago May 1927 William H. Chambers, foreman of the Anaheim Orange & Lemon Association packing house and for many years one of the city's most prominent men, died suddenly from an attack of heart failure while on his way to the beach Sunday. Mr. Chambers was 65 years of age and has been a resident of Anaheim for 25 years. He was a Mason and also a member of the Modern Woodman's Lodge. He leaves a wife and three sons. His home was at 317 Emily st. Funeral services were held in the chapel of Backs, Terry and Campbell on Tuesday, Dean Bode, of St. Michael's church officiated. BUY AMERICAN ACT—A significant test of the "buy American act" is now before the Army engineers, and the entire diplomatic corps is watching it. The case involves the purchase of nine trans formers by the Army engineers for Garrison dam in North Dakota. Secretary of State Acheson has repeatedly emphasized that we cannot expect our European allies to become self-supporting if we are not willing to buy their goods. RADIOLOGIC Tom Harmon Still Using His Famous Number '98' By TOM E. DANSON HOLLYWOOD — Tom Harmon being followed! He told me so if last week. The sports diary for the CBS—owned South-California radio outlet, has a very fond affection for the number "98"—and toothed all over the country know he made the number far when, as a member of the on squad of the University Michigan in 1538-39-40, he hit on his back when he ran, and passed for the scores downs that made him one of greatest All-Americans and owner of the coveted Heisman. was the first and only num-Tom ever wore, he said, to him the first time he out for football at his Ind., High School. Since days of try-and-stop-Harris high school, his uni-y and the Rams profes-sional football team have all of that number. No one ever wear it, as a tribute the manner in which Tom it so well recognized. But its still with him. The recent reorganization of at Columbia Square, the starters here for CBS, Tom his sports almanacs, type- and framed pictures for the into a new room, across the from where he has been. number on the door next to face is "63." Across the hall, "8." But on Tom's door is number—that's right—'98." being followed, but so far as sportscasting, it looks to me like Tom's in the lead. DOWN TV-RADIO ROW ... Robert Q.

The big-stick man for the team, Herbel also found new support in Tuesday's game with Orange from rookie first baseman Dennis Ryan and outfielder Dave Moody.

"ALL IS MADE FOR BULL"—Biggest boon to Congressman Frank "All-is-made-for-love" Boykin in his recent primary victory in Alabama was Evangelist Billy Graham. Only a few weeks earlier in Washington, Graham said: "I have avoided politics like the plague. I would never get involved in a political campaign." However, Graham not only attended a dinner with Boykin but toured part of Mobile with Boykin. This had a real impact on revival-minded folks around Mobile. The Congressman, who is under investigation in connection with RFC loans which benefitted his family, announced publicly that he was giving the Reverend Dr. Graham a blooded Brahmin bull. Other pastors in Mobile wondered what the difference was, in principal, between a bull and a mink coat. FUROR IN FRANCE—Adm. William Fechteler's reported statement that war is inevitable before 1960 and that Russia would overrun all Europe within three days has caused such a furor on the continent that U.S. Ambassador Jimmy Dunn in Paris has been ordered to investigate. The greatest invitational track and field carnival ever held will take place in Los Angeles Coliseum tonight. This is the 12th edition of the world famous Los Angeles Coliseum Relays which is sponsored by the Southern California committee for the Olympic Games and a meet committee headed by Bill Ackerman, of UCLA, general chairman. The lineup of stars features 150 outstanding track and field performers representing United States universities, colleges, athletics, young men squads, bringing together the outstanding athletes of several different nations. In the open events alone there will be a total of some 150 participating athletes while the program will be augmented by the finalists, from Los Angeles city schools who will be seeking top laurels in the A. B and C sign school classifications. The prep stars are the Olympic team members of 1956, in many cases. Ackerman is hopeful attendance will reach the astronomical figure of 70,000, huge for a track meet, which would top the 60,000 mark of 1948. If the field assembled is any indication, even the 70,000 figure may be an underestimate. Last Saturday, Walter Davis, Texas A & M, high jumped 6-ft. 10%–in., the second highest leap in history.

Sports Mirror By The Associated Press Today a year ago—Gus Zernial, Philadelphia Athletic outfielder, hit his sixth home rug in three consecutive games, to tie a major league record, as the A's lost to the St. Louis Browns, 11-8. Five years ago—Clint Hartung, in his first start as a Giant hurler, lasted 5 1/3 innings, to receive credit for the 8-3 Giant win over the Cubs. Ten years ago—Sammy Angoth, Louisville, Ky., outpointed Allie Stoltz, Newark, N.J., in a 15 rounder, to retain the lightweight title. Twenty years ago—Steve Swetonic pitched the Pittsburgh Pirates to a two-hit, 2-0 shutout over the Brooklyn Dodgers. Ben Franklin Wins ‘B’ Tilt Benjamin Franklin won the first game in the Recreation department’s juvenile softball “B” league yesterday by thruncing George Washington 19-17. Dale Coulter, the Franklin pitcher, won the ball game for himself in the third inning, when he tripled in three runs to tie up the ball game, and then came home with the winning run on an infield grounder. Individual hitting honors went to Le Roy Fry, of George Washington, who garnered three hits in as many times at bat, including a double.

Lynx Beat Orange In Close Contest The Buena Park Lynx extracted sweet revenge from the powerful Orange Lionettes last night when the BP girls took a l to o softball victory at Buena Park. Last Saturday, the Orange team beat the Lynx l to o in a game. Dale Coulter, the Franklin pitcher, won the ball game for himself in the third inning, when he tripled in three runs to tie up the ball game, and then came home with the winning run on an infield grounder. Individual hitting honors went to Le Roy Fry, of George Washington, who garnered three hits in as many times at bat, including a double in the first, and a home run in the second with the bases loaded. Hal Gregg Takes Number Seven as Oaks Win, 8-4 Hal Gregg, Anaheim's contribution to the cause of the Oakland Oaks, proved himself to be the hottest pitcher in the Pacific Coast league last night when he notched his seventh win at the expense of Sacramento. Gregg has lost no games so far in the season. Last night the Oaks won 8 to 4 as the result of a six run Oak uprising in the seventh inning. Gregg gave up eight hits, while his teammates collected 13. Hollywood and Portland today stand even up at one win apiece in their series this week. Portland took a close one last night at Portland, 7 to 6. Jack Phillips, a first baseman recently purchased by the Stars, joined the team last night. At Wrigley Field, Max West had a big night as he pounded out a homer and a double to get four RBI's in the Angels' 5 to 1 victory over the league leading San Diego Padres. Doyle Lade, of Los Angeles, took his fourth win against two defeats. Losing pitcher was Grumpy Guy Fletcher. Both teams got seven hits. The teams stand at one apiece in the week's series. Leon Brinkopf, third baseman, and Walt Dubiel, pitcher, were expected to check in from Chicago, but failed to show last night. Chuck Connors, heavy hitting first baseman, is now expected to break into the Angel lineup on the half-mile relay. The field events also include the hop-step-and-jump, put into the head because it is part of Olympic competition and in addition is a very spectacular event. Opening ceremonies take place at 1:45 p.m. in invitational competition (the pole vaulters get underway at 1:00 p.m., with the first running event, the 100-meter dash running entrants on their marks at 8:10).
