 Capt. Donald G. Jacobs, skipper of the Bibb, radioed his rescue log to coast guard area headquarters here today, and ended it this way:
 That it was something alto gether different in aspect to the however, was apparent from the actions of several of them who, upon reaching the safety of the Bibb, flung themselves down and fervently kissed the deck.
 "Yes-as usual a dog was among the rescued"
 Coast guard and navy planes participated in the Gaspar rescue operation.
 The Bibb, under another skip per, rescued all 69 persons aboard the Bermuda Sky Queen when the huge flying boat was forced down on the stormy Atlantic more than 800 miles east of Newfoundland last Oct. IA.

Truman Will
 "Cive Them Hell" On Campaign Tour
Continued from Page One)

due to return to Washington Oct. 2.
 As MT. Truman left on his cross country swing, the Houston (Texo Chronicle, published by Jesse H. Jones, a cabinet member in the late President Franklin D. Roose- velt's administration, announced its support of the COP ticket of Dewey and Warren.
 The Chronicle in an editorial said it believes in two-party sys- tenn. It called on Democrats of the South to abandon the feeling "that we are Democrats and can vote no other ticket"
 Citing qualifications of Govern ors Dewey and Warren in admin istering affairs in New York and California, respectively, the Chron- icle said MT. Truman "has not shown the leadership necessary for the successful management of our national and international af- fairs"
 MT. Truman will make the first major speech of the extensive vote tour at Dexter, Iowa, tomorrow.
 Before the voters go to the polls November 2, MT. Truman likely will. make three other railroad trips and plane visit to Florida to round out a 15,0OO to 10000 mile stumping campaign.
 MT. Truman's first major cam paign stop tomorrow, at the na- tional blowing match, may find him behind a blow. At least he told a Washington rural identification meeting here last night:
 "If they're going to have a mule, I might try my hand and see if I can still blow a straight furrow."
 Other important addresses dur ing his first weeks travel are at: Denver, Monday; Salt Lake City, Tuesday night; San Francisco, Wednesday night; and Los Angel es, Thursday night.
 Gov. Thomas E. Dewey, his COP opponent for the Presidency, , meanwhile stocked up more am- munition for his opening campaign address Monday at Des Moines, Iowa. He will confer with farm paper editors tomorrow on agricul- tural problems which are expected to figure largely in the campaign cross-fire.
 Both men are due to make major speeches day apart in Los An geles. There a controversy devel- oped.
 E. George Luckey, chairman of the -Barkley ticket com mittee in Los Angeles said the President will have to use Gilmore stadium for his September 23 talk because the Republicans had tied up the larger Hollywood Bowl ito rehearse some complicated lighting effects" for Dewey's appearance the next night.
 Democratic national chairman J. Howard McGrath promptly charg- ed COP with leasing an empty stadium" just to deny it to MT. Truman.
 Calling that action "un-Ameri- can," McGrath said in New York "I am sure that Gov. Dewey on so-

small ;cles removing old up
holstery, refilling with new and
appropriate material, and covering
with new material; tipping springs;
setting loose joints and arms on

TIL most fascinating job was that
of refinishing, repairing and up
holstering the three chairs which
came from the college chapel. Re-
liable sources indicate that these
are the original chairs used in
Oakland College Chapel in 1880,
and have been used constantly on
the platform of this chapel to the
present time. The previous sue
cessors are to be congratulated
upon retaining these chairs in their
original form.
