SEATTLE, July 8, -(P)- The jury in the Soviet Lieutenant Realms espionage conspiracy trial, must choose, it appears, between the word of the British-born en- gineer, who said Redin paid him for the U. S. Navy's secrets.
 The Russian officers denial of virtually all of his accuser's story leads to the situation of his word against that of Herbert Kennedy, a Seattle Marine Engineer, un- less the government introduces other evidence in rebuttal.
 The case shaped up as Redin prepared to resume direct testi- mony. Redin, his speech slightly broken, said at one point Saturday he would had go his english teach CT to prepare one statement which Kennedy attributed to him.

Rose Fails 10 Bar Use
OF Stolen Red Papers
By the Associoted Pre.r

MONTREAL, May 30-A defense
motion to bar as evidence documents
stolen from the Russian Embassy in
Ottawa was dismissed yesterday at
the trial OF Fred Rose, Communist
member of Parliament charged with
conspiracy in the Soviet espionage
case.
Chief Defense Counsel Joseph
Cohen pleaded that the documents
were "inviolable" under international
law of diplomatic immunity and
asserted that as a matter of up
holding public law they should not
be used against Rose.
Justice Wilfrid Lazure, in dis
missing the motion, ruled that the
privilege of diplomatic immunity
should be invoked only by an AM
bassador or his representative and
that it should be invoked only when
the person on trial is an alien and a
citizen of the country affected

Cobra Lock Wins
By YIN MALONEY, JR.

Nanjo Singh, the Hindu wrestling champ, demonstrated the effective ness of his Cobra Deathlock" for the second time last evening, for local fans, as he downed his lively opponent, Chick Garibaldi, in 37:- 35. Tn the late minutes of this con- test 1t looked as if the Italian-Am- erican grappler had gotten the best of his foreign opponent, but once again the Hindu proved he had ex- tra strong recuperative powers. Tn the co-feature attraction at the State Armory, last night, before a good turnout, Bert Healion, the weight lifting champ of Ireland, slaughtered" his fat opponent, Ed "Strangler" White, with five suc- cessive body slams in one fail, 30 minute limit bout.
 In the other bouts Chuch Ross of Texas and Sid Sitkowski of Poland mauled to a draw in a 30 minute limit. This was the slowest of the four contests and perhaps the poor est we have seen to date. In the second bout Lou Laird of Norwalk eat Bill bMiddlekauff of New York, with a flying bady scissors, in 22:07 of 30 mint limit contest. Referee Charley Winters did very satis- factory job of handling the four gruelling contests.

New York April 12-(UP)-Van Lingle (The Old) Mungo, to differ entiate from the l945 Van Lingle (The New) Mungo, is off the black list in Brooklyn today.
 Wearing the hated flannels of the New York Giants, old Jingle Jangle has proved that once Dodger al- ways Dodger. They know now that Van didn't mean 1t when he said he wanted to- be Giant.
 For the erstwhile Flatbush favor ite has been suspended indefinitely by Giant Manager Mel Ott for breaking training rules" Oh good old days of hotel escapades, fist fights, imbibing brawls and fines ranging from $200 to $l,00o! Let him out of the dog house. fellows.
 Van was a hero in Flatbush right from the start. He'd rear back and blow 'em down and most impor- tant-one of his first victims way back in 1881 were those New York Giants. He fitted all the other Ebeets Field requirements, too. They don't care much for poise and polish on the other side of Steve Brodie's bridge. Win the ball game and write your own ticket--and Mungo did.
 In 1884 he led the league in inn ingS pitched; 1885 in shutouts and in 1886 in strikeouts. That was his last big season, the one where he famed seven men in a row to tie the modern major league mark, and 1t got him down because support was lacking
 No support" he muttered, and walked out on the club in Pittsburgh.
 No Aviator
 That cost him $200, but Van didn't seem to mind. And the criticism of the fans wasn't for him, it was for the Dodger front office. They ex- pected acts like that from Van tThe Old) Mungo, the fans did. Like the time he missed the train while being convival.
 Let's hire an airplane. I'll drive and we'll beat the club home" Nun go told his amazed partner.
 Are you an aviator?" he was asked
 Nope" Mungo said sincerely. 'Bt look, the guys on this club ain't ball players but they play ball. I ain't an aviator, so why should that mean I can't drive a plane"
 He meant 1t, too. Which is one of the reasons that Mungo was 8 fav- orite with the peculiar species which are Dodger fans. That's why they couldn't understand Van Lingle (The New) Mungo when he accepted fee for doing odd jobs around the Giants Polo Grounds in the summer of 1942.
 Outraged Brooklyn considered 1t the greatest bit of sin since life long Democrat from Greenpoint was heard applauding Herbert Hoover in the newsreels. Hoover wasn't only

Chattanooga Tenn, April l2.- (UP)-America's premier golfer, Byron Nelson, said today that he would be happy to meet the British open champion in a match in the United States this season and hoped that 1t could be arranged.

 Critic
 The match invitation was prompt ed by Burton's recent criticism of the low scoring of Americans in U. S. winter tournaments. He chal- lenged Nelson to come to England for match and offered to bet $60C of his own money he couldu beat the American star.
 T hope Burton accepts the invi- tation to play over here against me and in the Goodall," Nelson said "I'd like to go to England, too, but that can't be arranged right now because of my heavy tournament schedule"
