Bridges Does Not Want Te Be
 "FavOrite Son"

CONCORD, N. H., P)-Senator Styles Bridges R.-N. H. took him. self out of the "favorite son" clas- sification yesterday amid indica- tions that New Hampshire may be- come the nations first testing ground for Republican Presidential candidates.
 Bridges, who carried New Eng lands banner in an unsuccessful try for the l94O COP Presidential nomination, told a reporter he has asked Political associates not to place him in the "favorite son" role next year.
 "I am interested in my work In the Senate and I want to be re- elected" the New Hampshire Sen ator said. "I have no other politi- cal ambitions now"
 Bridges, who heads the Senate appropriations committee, thus far has drawn no Republican Senate opposition in a campaign already beginning to get under way in preparation for the state nominat- ing primary Sept. IA, l948.
 The New Hampshire Senator's action in eliminating himself as "favorite son" contender appar- ently leaves the field wide open for other potential Presidential candidates to battle for prestige even if for few convention votes in the nations first Presidential preferential primary next March g.
 This primary precedes that in Wisconsin, which has proved a testing ground for Republican hopefuls in the past While only eight convention votes are involv- ed in New Hampshire's contest, a political victory or defeat for a candidate in this states first test of popular sentiment might affect his chances, elsewhere.

President And Pope Plus
 Exchange Letters

ROME, (P)-In an exchange of letters made public today, Pres ident Truman said the worlds moral forces must unite against those who "seek to destroy them, and Pope Plus XII replied that peace was jeopardized by nations which would reduce men to serf- dom.
 The exchange was made public by the Vatican and the office of Myron Taylor, Presidential repre- sentative to the Pope. The Pontiff received the Presidents letter from Taylor in an audience Tues day and replied the same day.
 "I seek to encourage renewed faith in the dignity and worth of the human person in all lands" President Truman wrote. "The times demand faith that is strong enough to struggle, if need be, for the right"
 The Pontiff's reply said:
 Once the State, to the exclusion of God, makes itself the source of the rights of the human person, man is forthwith reduced to the condition of slave; of mere civic commodity"
 The Pontiff pledged whole hearted cooperation from Gods church" in championing "the in- dividual against the despotic rule; the laboring man against oppres- sion; religion against persecution" :"
 Unless the moral forces of the world now join their strength, dis courag ement must inevitably deepen, and the strength and ef- fectiveness which thereby would be lost by these moral forces would be gained by those forces which oppose and seek to destroy them v

Coral Snake Fails To Ruffle Editor

ORLANDO, Fla. PA - News papermen are supposed to be a nervous type but James Dye, pub fisher of the Florida Labor News, proved his nerves were of cold steel the other evening when, sit ting across the living room from his wife, he saw her cover her mouth and grimace, pointing wild ly to the divan on which he was reclining.
 Dye looked casually at the floor and saw a deadly l8-inch coral snake, crawling out from under the divan.
 The publisher let the reptile alone until it crawled out into the kitchen. Then he walked into his bedroom, got a shotgun and killed the snake. It is believed that the snake entered the house via the fireplace.

SPORTS
 ROUNDUP
tBy Huqh Fullerton. Jr.)

BEAR MOUNTAIN, N. Y. (H)- For the benefit of football fans who spent last season discussing the greatness of the army football team, here's what's likely to hap pen when a good part of that squad turns out for the eastern All-Stars tusSle with the New York Giants next week. Ar hold Tucker, Glenn Davis and Doc Blanchard likely will be in the starting backfield but won't play more than half the game except under extraordinary conditions. Bill West, Blanchard's sub, will be fullback in the alternate backfield. Center Jim EnoS is a 5O-5O starting choice with Lou Daukas of Cornell, Shelton Biles is a possible starting tackle al though Penn States Red Moore seems likely to get the call while Ali Tavzel is running behind Yale's Bill Shuler for the other tackle position. End Tom Hayes has a Sprained ankle while Barney Poole didn't show up. He re- turned to Mississippi this fall. . Off that lineup, as presented by head coach Fuss McLaughry, they don't like a bunch of world beat CTS, but it must have been right good football team to produce so many all-star candidates.

PRESIDENT URGES
CONTROLS SPEED
Truman Tells Top Con-
gress Leaders Sugar,
Rice, Fats to Be Kept

WASHINGTON, March 24-W.R-
President Truman told the top
six leaders OF Congress tonight
that the House and Senate must
move fast to extend wartime con-
trolls on sugar, rice, hemp, tin
Anthony, fats oils and grains sbe-
fore they expire on March 81.
In a half-hour session at the
White House, the President i'm
pressed upon the House and Senate
leaders his concern over the ap-
proacing deadline on the COM
modities whose controls will vanish
on April LIST unless certain sections
of the Second War Powers act are
continued.
He got from the bipartisan lead
ership a promise that the request
ed extensions will be thoroughly
explored and subsequently con-
sidered, Mr.. Truman emphasized
in the conference, attended also
by his adviser, John R. Steelman,
that it was unimportant whether
the extensions were legislated in
one omnibus bill or in separate
measures. Speed was the important
thing, he said.
Foreign affairs did not intrude
into the domestic discussions, the
c%onferees said afterwards, and the
words Greece" Turkey" Mos
