MELLEN Assistant Advertising Manager RALPH ROULAND Clapuffed Advertising Manager DON YOUNG Circulation Manager Drew Pearson On The Washington MERRY-GO-ROUND WASHINGTON. — While the politicians have been watching the nine-too-mysterious conventions, some other people, including the air force, have been watching a mysterious rash of flying saucers. Furthermore, the air force, long ago about flying saucers has now made some official and important admissions. Admission No. 1 is that they have now detected something that looks like flying saucers on radar at the same time that people have claimed they saw flying saucers. In other words flying saucers are not just cloud freaks or hallucinations. If so they could not be detected on a radar screen. Admission No. 2 is that flying saucers could possibly be space ships from another planet. The reason for this admission is that cameras on its radar screens to keep a pictorial record of flying saucers or any other strange objects flitting across the screens. Finally Wright field at Dayton, O., the center of all air force research, has been instructed to chart all flying saucer patterns, find out whether their light behavior is similar, and what characteristics they seem to have in common. This was started only two months ago and no similar patterns have yet been reported, except for the peculiar fact that more flying saucers have been observed around U.S. atomic centers and around Wright field than any place else. This could be because observers from another planet were interested in our atomic and air development, though the air force thinks it's more likely to be because the population around these bases is more sensitive to something... have now detected something that looks like flying saucers on radar at the same time that people have claimed they saw flying saucers. In other words flying saucers are not just cloud freaks or hallucinations. If so they could not be detected on a radar screen. Admission No. 2 is that flying saucers could possibly be space ships from another planet. The reason for this admission is that it will soon be possible for us to build a space ship to visit the moon if we are willing to spend the money for research and construction. Our current research into atomic power and supersonic speeds already has progressed so far that it is definitely known such a ship can be built, but the big expense would come from creating atmosphere inside the ship to support human life while traveling from one planet to the other. Therefore if we are this close to interplanetary travel, air force officers admit that a more advanced civilization could be keeping this planet under surveillance through flying saucers. Admission No. 3—It has not been announced, but scientific observation posts have been set up in New Mexico where we are testing guided missiles, to track flying saucers also. A number of flying saucers have been seen in the southwest, and since trained specialists are already on the job in that area with the latest scientific gadgets, the air force has ordered them to watch for flying saucers and track them scientifically. In addition, the air force has instructed its 24-hour air observers to watch not only for enemy planes but flying saucers. Furthermore it has set up special board of education for salaries are valid, and the same will be paid. TV-RADIOLOGIC Lessons Still Rout Vocalovely Robert By TOM HOLLYWOOD—Whenever Roberta Linn sings, the wolf cry goes up! And not content to take her singing lightly, the "Champagn Lady" with the ever popular Lawrence Welk aggregation feels the voice study and practice is essential, even though many "authorties" on singers cry "wolf" when they discover Roberta holds this point of view. "You'll lose your style," they say. But she hasn't. Rated among the top vocalist on the West Coast, Welk's "Champagne Lady" devotes an hour of her daily routine regularly to practice—this in addition to memorize weeks before the convention and at first blew up in smoke. About a week before the convention U.S. Steel's Ben Fairless went to the White House and informed Defense Mobilizer John Steelman: "If you'll give us a worth-while price increase, I will guarantee to have the stike settled within one hour of my return to Pittsburgh." "What do you call worth while, Mr. Fairless?" Steelman asked. Fairless said he wanted a price boost averaging $5.65 for all types of steel. Steelman finally gave Fairless an assurance that the government would permit the $5.65 boost, then urged Fairless to return to Pittsburgh immediately to settle the... IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO From the Piles of Anahelm Gaette By MRS. HENRY KUCHEL 75 Years Ago June 1877 This office was yesterday the recipient of a remarkable cluster of roses, the gift of Mrs. R. Luedke. There are between sixty and seventy roses in one single cluster. Born—In Santa Ana, July 12, to the wife of Rev. H. W. Featherstum, twin daughters. The shipments from the depot this morning were: seven cars sheep, one case honey, one sawing machine, 1 bbl. vinegar, two boxes bottles, one box butter, 190 skis, barley, 20 skis. potatoes, 30 dry hides, five green hides, six kegs beer. Mr. John Hanna now delivers milk in the evening as well as in the morning. His largely increased number of customers made this step necessary. A horse was stolen from the ranch of Prosper Dihort last night. A reward is offered for capture of the thief. 50 Years Ago June 1882 District Attorney Williams has given the board of supervisors a written opinion to the effect that the old claims against the board from his members of her county board of education for salaries are valid, and the same will be paid. The claims aggregate $642. Mr. J. B. Neff has the thanks of this office for a donation of way-up apricots. He informs us that the fruit is superior in quality to that of the last three crops. He will dry the crop. Mrs. J. W. Landell of Buena Park and her daughter, Mrs. Hargraves of Fallbrook, spent several days in Los Angeles the past week the guests of Mrs. Hughes. Little Miss Pauline Vetter has our thanks for a collection of cucumbers from the government seed distributed in the spring. 25 Years Ago June 1927 Mrs. Nellie E. Terry was hostess for a very delightful breakfast party on Thursday morning last when she entertained a number of her friends at a real southern breakfast at which among other appetizing dishes were fried chicken, cream gravy and biscuits. Breakfast was served at 9 o'clock and covers were laid for eight. Those present were: the hostess, Mrs. Terry, Mr. and Mrs. H. P. Campbell, Mr. and Mrs. T. H. Harrison, Mr. and Mrs. W. C. Gathas and Mrs. M. Wilson. What do you call worth while, Mr. Fairless? Steelman asked. Fairless said he wanted a price boost averaging $5.65 for all types of steel. Steelman finally gave Fairless an assurance that the government would permit the $5.65 boost, then urged Fairless to return to Pittsburgh immediately to settle the strike "within an hour" as promised. Steelman confidently passed the good news on to both Roger Putnam and Ellis Arnall. The next day, however, Steelman was abruptly surprised by a long-distance call from Fairless. "I can't settle this strike for $5.65 per ton increase," he said. "The union has just increased its demands. I'll need a bigger price boost." Steelman then phoned Phil Murray to ask about the "new union demands" in blunt language. Murray told Steelman that the union had not altered its position one iota. Murray proceeded to prove his point by reiterating the union position. It was at this point that Steelman became convinced that the steel companies were negotiating in bad faith, and were not out to settle the strike but to get all the traffic would bear. Economic Stabilizer Putnam, equally furious, told a private conference: "These steel people apparently think they can blackmail and doublecross the government. They're not going to get away with it as long as I'm here. As far as I'm concerned, they're only entitled to $3.50 a ton increase. They can wait till hell freezes over before they get any move."

Wilhelmina st., has recently been awarded the distinguished flying cross for his part in a hazardous mission in the air over Korea. A member of the 34th bomber squadron, Lt. Anderson was flying a B-26 on a night mission over Red territory when he sighted and attacked an enemy supply train. Five bombing runs and nine straffing runs accounted for the thorough destruction of the target. A graduate of Anaheim high school and Fullerton junior college, Lt. Anderson has been in Korea since Dec. 26, 1951, and in that time has flown more than 50 missions. the other a comic book...

The two have known each other since the Welk days in Chicago, when Roberta would rush up to the Gilbert voice studio for a quick voice lesson before showtime at the Trianon Ballroom in the Windy City. Since that time, Miss Gilbert has settled in Southern California. Roberta's thoughts about her voice are very much like those of Dennis Day. They both feel that voice study is a requisite, even though many connoisseurs of the vocal art violently express their opinion to the opposite. Holding the reverse view, Roberta prac-tices daily, using a tape recording of every lesson and she knows that this procedure has improved her voice quality and styling. By listening to the tape recordings of her singing, she catches flaws in breathing, tone placement and pitch, which, if left uncorrected, could sprout into larger flaws, tending to tear down the style she has worked out. According to "Bert," because she was on the road with one night stands with Welk for almost two years, her breath control was becoming a bit ragged. Voice lessons help trim this raggedness, and actually amounts to supervised practice. And of course, we've always heard that practice makes perfect. STAR-LITES ...

Being president in these times is like umpliring a game for the Brooklyn Dodgers. Copyright, 1902, by Universal-Radio and TV Features Syndicate Hal Boyle NEW YORK (P)—A husband's job used to be to bring home the reacon. In more and more households today, however, the husband not only brings home the bacon—he cooks it, too. A man's place is in the kitchen. This quiet revolution in domestic duties began about a quarter of a century ago in that period of culinary history known as "the backyard oltdoor grill." Father got the idea he was a real heroic figure as he stood, eyes streaming from smoke, turning over a row of hot dogs or steaks burning to death over a fire in a stone barbecue over in the backyard. Trap Closes "M-m-m-m—, simply delicious," murmured mama later, munching a sandwich that tasted of garlic and old rust. This feminine flattery went to father's head. "If I can do this well outdoors," he told himself, "what couldn't I do in a real kitchen?" So he moved indoors, bought himself a cookbook, and began experimenting like a small boy with a new chemistry set. Every weekend he figured out a new dish to try on his friends, and from the wife of the party he became the wife of the party—the guy in the sky-blue apron. Mama gallantly shuddered her way through his trial—and—error efforts, and told guests fondly in his presence: The World Today By JAMES MARLOW WASHINGTON (P)—The selection of Gen. Eisenhower and Gov. Stevenson as presidential candidates will go down as one of the most extraordinary events in American political history for more reasons than one. Both were reluctant candidates. Great support had been built up for both before either man actually said he would accept nomination. Eisenhower didn't say so until last January although the campaign among his supporters to get him nominated had begun long before that. Stevenson never publicly said he would accept until Friday before the third and final balloting began. Campaigns of Silence Stevenson never said one word in behalf of himself through all the months when Sen. Kefauver, Sen. Kerr, Sen. Russell and Averell Harriman were making speeches and looking for votes. Eisenhower did not campaign at all until the last month before the Republican convention although his chief rival, Sen. Taft, traveled through at least 38 states and probably set an American record for pre-convention speeches and interviews. Both men are newcomers to politics, Eisenhower even more than Stevenson. The general had never been in politics before. Stevenson had taken no part in politics until 1947 when he agreed. Affairs of State By HENRY C. MACARTHUR Capitol News Service SACRAMENTO. (CNS)—Some of the hullabaloo over the so-called "extra" costs of school buildings in California as a result of the Field act of 1933 may be avoided in the future, as an aftermath of the disastrous Tehachapi earthquake. This quake provided the first strong test of earthquake proofed school structures, and according to Anson Boyd, state architect, proved contentions the division of architecture have maintained all along—simply that a building constructed to proper engineering standards will withstand heavy shock. There were three schools in the area. A school in Cummins valley had been constructed prior to enactment of the field legislation. This building was demolished. The other two schools, Tehachapi high and elementary, were built according to the division's earthquake proof standards. Neither of these schools suffered damage other than minor plaster cracks in some rooms. At the elementary school, a new four-room classroom addition built in 1948 escaped all damage. These facts alone probably will have a definite effect on the constitutional amendment the legislature will consider at its special session Aug. 4. With definite proof in front of them as to the effectiveness of the Field act requirements, legislators will be loath to skimp on basic construc- himself a cookbook, and began experimenting like a small boy with a new chemistry set. Every weekend he figured out a new dish to try on his friends, and from the wife of the party he became the wife of the party—the guy in the sky-blue apron. Mama gallantly shuddered her way through his trial—and—error efforts, and told guests fondly in his presence: **In Deeper** "My husband is getting to be a wonderful cook, but he does leave the kitchen in such a mess." "Why should I have all the fun of cooking, and leave my wife all the dirty work?," he said. "I guess I'd better tidy up the kitchen, too." That is what I object to about the whole theory of male cookery. The husband has been artfully convinced his wife is doing him a favor to let him into the kitchen. But what is the real truth? She has been freed of her most onerous chores through the centuries—looking dinner, then doing the dishes. I am the old-fashioned man, and is the other way in my home; the other evening I went into the kitchen. My wife, Frances, turned round and saw me an jumped. "What's the matter?" I asked. "You startled me," she said. It's been years since I saw you the kitchen." **Turn About** But when we go out to have dinner with friends, the host meets at the door and says: "Don't go into the living room with the girls. All they'll talk out is baseball and politics. Say here in the kitchen, and help me baste the mutton. I'm trying new recipe—very exciting. You tap it in burlap and murdock lves and cook it over a slowe." Later, after the meal is over, hands me a dishtowel and says you know how wives are—they be a clean kitchen," and after are through he says: "Now, shall we join the ladies?" When we go in we find the Republican convention although his chief rival, Sen. Taft, traveled through at least 38 states and probably set an American record for pre-convention speeches and interviews. Both men are newcomers to politics, Eisenhower even more than Stevenson. The general had never been in politics before. Stevenson had taken no part in politics until 1947 when he agreed, after weeks of hesitation and soul searching, to be a Democratic candidate for governor of Illinois. **Domestic Engimas** But perhaps more extraordinary than all this is the fact that the country as a whole knew practically nothing at all about the thinking of either man on domestic affairs until shortly before the conventions. Everyone knew Eisenhower's views on international life. He was a firm supporter of the Truman administration's policy of standing united with Europe and helping rearm it. But, except for some scattered statements he made while he was president of Columbia University—statements which revealed very little of his knowledge of domestic affairs—the general public knew almost nothing of Eisenhower's thinking on affairs at home. **Unknown Quantities** This didn't seem to bother the people who voted in the state primaries where they picked him, as in New Hampshire, over Sen. Taft who had spent years making his views known. It wasn't until he came back to this country last June that Eisenhower began to express opinions on domestic problems. Except for some vague knowledge about Stevenson—that he had been a good governor in Illinois and had some experience in the foreign field while working for the State department—the general public didn't know much about him. This was the year the conventions turned their backs on the professional politicians to pick newcomers more on faith than knowledge. These facts alone will have a definite effect on the constitutional amendment the legislature will consider at its special session Aug. 4. With definite proof in front of them as to the effectiveness of the Field act requirements, legislators will be loath to skimp on basic construction principles especially with the thought in mind that the Teachapi quake could have happened when all three schools were full of children. For the special session will consider another huge bond issue of from $200 to $250 million dollars for the construction of new schools, with one of the paramount issues the writing into the constitution of certain restrictions. The Field act, authored by the late Assemblyman Don Field of Glendale, was the aftermath of the 1933 earthquake which shook Long Beach and leveled, according to the division of architecture, virtually all of the schools in that city. Since October, 1933, when the act went into effect, no school structures have been erected in California which did not meet the specifications laid down by the division of architecture. The requirements of the act have been under constant attack ever since, and at the 1951 session, extended hearings were held by legislative committees on the question of added costs imposed on the taxpayers by the Field act requirements. It was shown at the time that the "added costs" were minor, if plans conformed to what the division describes as "ordinary adherence to basic engineering principles of construction." It is only, the architects say, when the district or contractors attempt to cut corners that costs can be lessened in basic construction work. So confident was Architect Boyd of the structural stability of the earthquake proofed schools, that only a few hours after the shock, he said: "I'll go out on the limb right now, before I have any reports..." Later, after the meal is over, hands me a dishtowel and says you know how wives are—they are a clean kitchen," and after are through he says: "Now, shall we join the ladies?" When we go in we find the ties have taken the television apart and are trying to put a new tube, and one wife is ing, "Darn it, I forgot to put No. 3 size screwdriver in my se. I can't work without it." It all makes me pine for the s before knighthood was in flower. It won't be long until a young man, proposing marriage, will win his fair one's heart with this tender clincher: "And another thing, honey, you'll never eat better. I can make an angel food cake just like daddy used to bake." WHO'S ZOO-ON THE HIGHWAY Rainbows Blow 10-0 Lead; Bow To Placentia Anaheim Rainbows lost its first game in four starts, 16 to 11, last night at Placentia. The Rainbows were leading 10 to 0 but as they took the field for the last of the fourth inning, the pitcher couldn't get the ball in the strike zone and Placentia scored 8 runs in the fourth, 3 runs in the fifth and five runs in the sixth. The Rainbows' other run came in the sixth inning when it looked as if they were on the comeback trail, but Placentia stopped the rally in short order. The Rainbows' next game will be at Brea Thursday. Albert (Red) Schoendienst of the Cardinals led the National league in stolen bases (26) in 1945, his freshman year in the majors.
