Punthers Lose To
Coust-Le uding Nine
Of Biloxi Indiuns

The Pascagoula Panther base
ball team lost their season open
er to the coast-leading Biloxi In
dians last Saturday afternoon by
a score of TO in a bitterer game
than the score indicates.
The Indians scored four of their
runs in the first inning against
the inexperienced Panthers and
picked up a total of seven hits
at the hands of Pitcher Knight.
The Panthers also made six errors
and nicked Indian Hurler Cha
than for three hits.
Knight settled down when the
going was rough and gives indi-
cations of developing into a top
flight pitcher before the season
is ended.
The scheduled return game
with the Indians in Biloxi has
been indefinitely postponed as a
result of the Indians entry for
The coast in the state high school
series which gets underway this
weekend.

 The Government continued to seek settlement on the coal dispute as Che strike deadline neared, but all bituminous mine operators were directed to hold their coal at the mines beginning at midnight to- night to accumulate at least one full days production,
 Coal held at the mines hence- worth may be shipped only in ac- cordanee with future Government orders,
 After the strike begins, soft coal deliveries will be restricted to householders, gas plants and hosa pltals having less than 10 days sup- ply on hand and industrial consum- CTS having less than five days sup- ply,
 Negotiations Reviewed
 The sweeping Government order came as representatives of the soft coal mine operators met with As- sistant Secretary of Labor John Gibson to review their deadloeked negotiations with President John L., Lewis of the United Mine Workers, CAF,L) Reports persisted that the Government might offer some com promise formula.
 No apparent progress was made in negotiations after Lewis rejected the operators proposals, including a wage increase of approximately i8 l-2 cents an hour. Lewis ap- peared to give top priority to de- mands for improved health and safety conditions, with wages and hours secondary considerations.

 Tuck announced yesterday that he planned to seize the company's property to maintain service and denied the legal or moral right of the union-the International Broth erhood of Electrical Workers (A.F.L)-to strike against the pub lie interest.
 The strike has been set for Mon- day, April 1. Union spckesrnen last night accused Tuck of trying to "beat the workers into submission" !"
 At the same time the union said 1t would agree to arbitration.

 The Helncy's, who had refused to talk with anyone except few close relatives and Father Bon- gers in the days preceding the hanging, left a short statement with the chaplain which was distributed after their death. It said, In part:
 We want to express our thanks to the authorities for the kind treatment that they gave us in our stay in the death row, and that they helped us in every way pos- slble. and for Father Bongers which we both give credit to for saving our souls. He spent an hour with us most every day that we were in the death row--instruct- ing usthow to ask God to forgive our sins. And if God ever did forgive anybody for their sins we are sure that God will forgive ours and that there will be a place in heaven we hope and pray for his reward of saving our souls"
 The statement had been dictated to Father Bongers by William. who said he also was speaking for his father.
