Couuht in Roller
~ the Assoejoted pr...

MAIDEN, Mass, July 9.-Trapped
in conveyor belt rollers which were
crushing his legs, a 46-year -old
engineer saved himself today by
throwing tin cans until he hit an
electric switch which shut off the
power.
George Ross of Saugus aimed for
his life 30 times before he scored the
hit which stopped the rollers.
Dragged into the machine above
the knees, at the Potter Drug and
Chemical Co., Mr.. Ross twisted a
jackknife out of his pocket and cut
through a heavy 4-foot belt.
When that failed to stop the ma
chine, he grabbed cans spilled from
the belt and hurled them at a wall
switch 6 feet away until he hit it.
Hospital attaches said the man
had good chance Of recovering with
out amputation.

Mexicans Keep Eye
On American Writers
By H. Stuort Morrison
foreign Correspondent Of The Star
and the Chjcooo poity News

MEXICO CITY, July s.-Although
censorship was abolished with the
end of the war, American newspaper
correspondents stories from Mex
leo are once again being subjected
to close surveillance.
During the war, news associations
each carried two censors on their
payrolls. They left the copy pretty
much alone. but they were there
on the job.
With the end of the war censors
went out of existence. The same
individuals, however, remained, with
the title of controllers. They made
no effort to inspect copy. however.
Over the week end controllers in
formed one American news service
that they had received instructions
from Ministry of Communications
to inspect all copy before it was
transmitted. Presumably, the same
instructions have been given con-
trollers Of all other communica-
tions' facilities.
Correspondents are working in
the dark, eXhausting every confirm
ing resource to insure copy going
out.

distributed among the medalist and
winners and runnersup in the five
flights. In addition a $500 trophy
will 60 to the winners club for one

Bill Wenzel, chairman of the
annual match play event, said today
the club would go the USGA's limit
in awarding $10O bond to the winner.
The runnerup and medalist will re-
ceive $50 bonds as will the winners
of the second through the fifth
flights, with $25 bonds for the beaten
flnalists in the higher flights. A $25
bond will 60 to the winner of the

only beaten eight planned.
The tournament easily should be

Volney Burnett will head the local
entries, which will include Roger
Peacock, Ralph Bogart and Jerry
Hart. Bobby Brownell is pulling for
a night shift with the FBI at that
