MELLEN Assistant Advertising Manager RALPH ROULAND Classified Advertising Manager DON YOUNG Circumstance Manager The Sacramento Scene By HENRY C. MACARTHUR Capital News Service SACRAMENTO. (C N S) — whether or not the California delegation to the Republican national convention "missed the boal" has been a subject of pro and con discussion around the state capitol ever since the convention closed with the first ballot nomination of Eisenhower and outside of the California delegation virtual disregard of California's favorite son candidate, Gov. Earl Warren. But some of those on the inside who have returned from Chicago and who had perhaps a different slant on the picture than (Ed note: Senator Estes Kefauver of Tennessee; top Democratic contender; gets the once-over today in Drew Pearson's series on the Democratic candidates.) CHICAGO. — If you had told Estes Kefauver's colleagues in the senate one year ago that he would emerge with the top number of delegates at the next Democratic convention, they would have snorted with disbelief. Some of them are still snorting. This attitude, however, is solely confined to Washington and a few big cities where the political bosses had their machines bounced off the track by Kefauver's crime expose, in Washington, the attitude is based on something which is all-important in the nation's capital but not readily understood elsewhere. TV-RADIOLOGIC Radio - Television Poll to be Announced By TOMMY HOLLYWOOD—The final lotts from more than 60 new papers in the state of California for the annual TV-Radio Awards, have been counted, with the winners in the various categories as follows: RADIO In the various divisions, on the first place winner and the second place (which will award Honorable Mentions Award) will be listed. BEST DRAMATIC SHOW "Lux Radio Theater" with the honorable mention going to "Drama Net." The first coming from CE at the latter, from NBC. BEST COMEDY SHOW: "TJ Jack Benny Show" from CE with an honorable mention in tie between NBC's "Red Skelton Show" and "Bob Hope Show." BEST MUSICAL SHOW: Two shows from NBC in this winner circle, with the "Railroad Hour" as first choice, and honorable mention going to the "Telephone Hour." BEST CHILDREN'S SHOW CBS's "Let's Pretend" led in this field by a wide margin, with three-way tie for honorable mention, all from ABC between "Space Patrol," "Lone Ranger," and "No School Today." BEST PUBLIC SERVICES SHOW OR SERIES: "America's Town Meeting" from ABC won first place honors, with the Mutual show, "Reporter's Roundup," taking the honorable mention. TOP RADIO PERSONAL TELEVISION discussion around the state capitol ever since the convention closed with the first ballot nomination of Eisenhower and outside of the California delegation virtual disregard of California's favorite son candidate, Gov. Earl Warren. But some of those on the inside who have returned from Chicago and who had perhaps a different stint on the picture than was obtainable to the public through the press, radio, and television, feel that the California group not only maintained its dignity and integrity, but also that the governor will be invited to a high position in Washinton in the event of a Republican victory in November. This immediately gives rise to a lot of cogitation, first as to whether Warren would be interested in a Washington post, and second if he should be, whether he would be willing to leave the state or the manner of Lt. Gov. Goodwin J. Knight. For although Warren and Knight are both Republicans, they are far apart in governmental thinking, with Knight generally believed to be aligned to the faction in the Republican party which contested Warren's presidential candidacy with Congressman Thomas Werdel. Knight pointedly kept out of the pre-primary campaign, but nevertheless, his leachings are well known. TLEN THERE is life added complication of a U.S. senatorial vacancy in the event of a GOP victory, a vacancy which Warren would have to fill by appointment. Obviously, there will be a deal of scrabbling for this juicy plum, but if Warren follows his past performances in the matter of important appointments, those who scrabbble hardest will get the least consideration. There is the possibility that the governor could have this post himself if he wanted to, as it would be simple for him to resign as governor and then receive an appointment from Knight as U.S. senator. Although there is nothing illegal or even immoral with disbelief. Some of them are still snorting. This attitude, however, is solely confined to Washington and a few big cities where the political bosses had their machines bounced off the track by Kefauver's crime exposé. In Washington, the attitude is based on something which is all-important in the nation's capital but not readily understood elsewhere—seniority. Young Estes Kefauver has been in congress only 19 years. On the other hand, his colleague, McKellar of Tennessee, is 85 years old and has been in congress for 35 years. And every time McKellar passes young Kefauver in a senate corridor, he curses. Other senators do not curse. But some of them are jealous. They do not realize that these are fast moving days when the American people are fed up with the old age withered by Elsenhower's nomination and by the sudden elevation of a political unknown, Nixon, of California, to the No. 2 spot on the Republican ticket. KEFAUVER'S RECORD—Perhaps also they don't entirely appreciate the fact that Kefauver has a magnificent voting record, has shown more courage in facing racial problems than any other southern senator, and had the vision to realize the danger of permitting an underworld to gnaw at the foundation of America. On top of this, he has gone through an intense political campaign, during which he hasn't made a single mistake. Eisenhower, on the other hand, has made several. Kefauver, meanwhile, did Eisenhower the biggest political favor of his life. He is the chief reason Eisenhower was nominated. For the main factor motivating Republican delegates at their recent convention was that they badly needed a winner. And they knew, first from the Gallup poll, second from their own political observations, that Kefauver could outpolt Tait in most of the nation. To beat him they had BEST PUBLIC SERVICE SHOW OR SERIES: "America" Town Meeting from ABC work first place honors, with the Mutual show, "Reporter's Roundup" taking the honorable mention. TOP RADIO PERSONALITY Readers voted a tie for first place in this category with Jack Benny and Arthur Godfrey winning tied first place awards. Honorable mention to Bing Crosby. This turned out to be a CBS landslide. TELEVISION BEST DRAMATIC SHOW: Jack Webb's NBC-TV show "Dragnet" copped first place here with the CBS-TV program "Studio One" well ahead of the field for the honorable mention. BEST COMEDY SHOW; No question with this one. Leading almost 10 to 1 was the most popular, "I Love Lucy" show from Hampshire. They also saw him swamp the Democratic organization in Ohio, even with a bunch of unknown delegates; while in California they saw him roll up a vote bigger than Governor Earl Warren. Again he did it by bucking the old-line leaders of the Democratic party using a bobtail assortment of young and enthusiastic amateurs that nobody had ever heard of. In many respects, the novices who rolled up the votes for Kefauver out in the sticks, were like the novices who rallied behind Eisenhower in the same areas. And Republican delegates, led by shrewd nonamateur Tom Dewey, sensed the need for a change plus the danger of being defeated by a Kefauver. KEFAUVER'S CRIME — After Estes Kefauver first started his New Hampshire campaign, he remarked to one of his advisers: "I'm tired of talking about crime. I think I should make past performances in the matter of important appointments, those who scrabble hardest will get the least consideration. There is the possibility that the governor could have this post himself if he wanted to, as it would be simple for him to resign as governor and then receive an appointment from Knight as U.S. senator. Although there is nothing illegal or even immoral in such a procedure close friends of Warren do not believe he would indulge in a maneuver of this type. Another group thinks Warren will remain in California, and possibly run again in 1954 for another term as governor. His support during the presidential primary indicated he is a long way from being "washed up" in this state, as many of his detractors have claimed, and should he choose another term in his present position, where he is top man, there is neither Democrat nor Republican in California who could seriously challenge his candidacy. The governor himself has kept him on the subject and probably will until the time for action arrives. He has in the past been leath to comment on what he intends to do until the 'campaign year' arrives. Obviously, there could be no offer of a federal job until after the November elections, so it's a foregone conclusion that the public will just have to wait to see what impolls. CAPITOL RECONSTRUCTION—Those who frequent the state capitol are getting no end of chuckles out of the botch job the capital nursery performed on the new lawn around three sides of the capitol and annex. For the state division of architecture, who draws up the contracts for such work, refused to accept the lawn from the nursery which obtained the contract for $4695. The lawn, said Anson Boyd, state architect, was little more than a weed patch and series of bare spots, with some low places where water stands and sours the ground. Now, its up to the nursery to make good on the contract, either by filling in the bare spots, or fearing up the entire area and planting anew. Meanwhile, it was learned the capital grounds will be torn up at least until November when the west side is scheduled to be finished. And if there is repetition in history, it will be a year or so before the grounds are ready for the scores of tourists who visit the seat of government. And Republican delegates, led by shrewd nonamateur, Tom Dewey, sensed the need for a change plus the danger of being defeated by a Kefauver. KEFAUVER'S CRIME — After Estes Kefauver first started his New Hampshire campaign, he remarked to one of his advisers: "I'm tired of talking about crime. I think I should make some speeches on foreign policy." "Stick to crime; Estes, stick to crime," replied the adviser, "that's what the people understand." However, Estes has not stuck to crime, either in his subsequent speeches or in his earlier record in congress. That record is one which shows up well under the most critical microscope. Though a southerner, Kefauver voted for the controversial anti-synching bill. He also voted to abolish the poll tax, though he did not vote for cloture or a compulsory FEPC. He voted against the Taft-Hartley act, to override the presidential veto but now says Taft - Hartley should be abolished. He has also campaigned against the monopoly of war contracts to a few big companies and led an investigation to aid small business. He had the courage to circulate a petition in the house to get the Taft-Wagner housing bill out of the rules committee, and finally helped to get it passed. He has been a leader in backing the president on foreign affairs and defense. And while a member of the house of representatives, he wrote a book, "The 20th Century Congress," carefully diagnosing our current legislative system.

Lynx Slate Two; Split Pair over Week End Two games loomed on the immediate horizon of the Buena Park Lynx today; a game with the Orange Lionettes there tomorrow night and one with Monterey Park Wednesday. Buena Park Lynx sallied northward over the weekend to split a pair of games with Fresno, 7-4, and 1-0. On Saturday behind the heavy hitting of Ruby Moore, Annabelle Lockabey, and Ruth Waldo, the girls from BP romped over Fresno with seven runs, eight hits and two errors. Alsup and Whitney were the winning battery; Jensen and Schlegel, the losers. Fresno took command of the first portion of the game by scoring three runs in the first. Buena Park picked up two as Waldo, Mahoney, and Broady walked, Lockabey singled and Averett walked to bring home a pair. Fresno lengthened their lead in the third to 4-2 by scoring still another run, but the Fresno girls domination of the game went up in the smoke of a rally in the fifth as the Lynx started the winning homestretch run. THE FIFTH canto fireworks started as Waldo and Mahoney walked and Lockabey singled. Waldo then scored on an outfield fly and Ruby Moore stepped up to the plate to pound out a triple to drive in two more runs and hit the score in four runs. Industrial League All-First Team J.

Copyright, 1952, by Universal Radio and TV Features Syndicate Fish and Game Program to Harrass Legislators in 1953 Session SACRAMENTO (CNS) One of the tougher nuts the state legislature may have to crack at the 1953 session will be the financing of the state fish and game program. Under the present system of financing, the Department of Fish, and Game receives no money from the state's general fund, this situation being based on the theory that fish and game preservation is the particular forte of the sportsmen, who reap the benefits of the department's activities.

The Magnolia Cobras evened their 2 out of 3 series with Koopman's Furniture as they upset the furnituremen, 17 to 2. Louie Deleon took over the hurling chores for this important win over the VFW and was never in trouble as he gave only 3 hits and allowed only one runner to reach second. Meanwhile, his teammates were gathering 6 safeties off the slants of Ralph Alvarado, the Cypress hurler. The big show of the night was Louie Deleon's single in the fourth inning, which drove in rightfielder Sanders with the tie-breaking run. This was enough to win the game but Piho Zamarripa added another in the fifth as he triumphed and scored. U.S. Thinclads Sweep Three Wins HELSINKI, U.S.-The United States marked up three Olympic victories and two records within a space of 40 thrilling minutes today. Despite a couple of scares in the semi-finals, shotputter Parry O'Brien of Southern California, sprinter Lindy Remigino of Manhattan and hurdler Charlie Moore of Cornell all earned the right to ascend to the top of the dals for the Olympic victory ceremonies. O'Brien set a new Olympic shot put record of 57 feet 1:43 inches to lead the way in an American sweep of the first three places. Moore, son of a member of the 1924 United States Olympic team, equalled the record he set in his trial heat yesterday, when he won the 400 meter hurdles in 50.8 seconds. Remigino, given second place in his semi-final heat on what many spectators considered a doubtful decision, won the 100 meter dash final in a finish so close that all the first four finishers were given the same time, 10.4 seconds. A fourth American first place appeared to be in the making in for the Anaheim recreation department in the girls' doubles for the national junior public parks tennis championships at Long Beach from Aug. 5 to Aug. 9, over the weekend when they defeated Karen Lenain and Anne Williams in the finals, 6-4, 6-4. By winning one event players may qualify to play in all three events being staged, so Miss Debeve and Miss Lamori will also be entered in the girls' singles as well as teaming with the boys who win the boys' doubles to make an additional two mixed doubles combinations. In a previously unreported semi-final match Miss Lenain and Miss Williams had won a decisive 6-1, 6-2 victory over Alice Weaver and Dorothy Thomas. The finals of the boys' doubles will bring together Ronnie Legg and Dan Holden against Deanokes and Phil Wright. Legg and Holden gained the round of 6 with a 6-3, 8-6 win over Barry Ryan and Merle Meyer, taking an easy first set, but running into a real battle before winning the second. STANDINGS By The Associated Press Pacific Coast League THE "COBRAS" from Magnolia upset the favored Koopman nine by the overwhelming score of 17 to 2. It was a case of the Cobras doing no wrong and the furnituremen doing no right. In the first inning Magnolia combined 3 hits, '5 errors, and a base on balls to score 8 runs. After this Koopmans were never in the ball game as the Cobras continued to add to their run column by scoring in every inning but the third. Bloomers to Meet Laguna Tonight; Drop Tustin, 19-3 Fresh off a 19-3 route over Tustin last Friday, the Bloomers, local high school girls' softball team, meet a Laguna Beach team at the beach city. In the Friday walkaway, Doris Holve pitched a three hitter to team up with a burst of Anaheim hitting to thoroughly subdue Tustin. Top hitters were Jo Ann Clark, Alice Weaver and Kay Dlerst. Karen Lenain stole the spotlight, however, with a beautiful catch on an outfield hit that would have normally gone for a base hit.
