Argentina 10 Ask U. n.
To Admit 7 Countries
Despite Soviet Veto
By the Assoeioisd Press

NEW YORK, Aug. 21.-Dr. Jose
Arce, chief delegate to the United
Nations from Argentina, said today
that he will ask the General Assem-
bly, to admit the seven countries
whose U. N. membership has been
blocked by the Soviet Security
Council veto.
DR.. Arce made the statement as
he sailed aboard the Queen Eliza
beth to preside over the opening
of the General Assembly session
In Paris.
Seven countries-1ta1y, Austria,
Finland, Trans-Jordan, Ireland,
Portugal and Ceylon-all received a
majority vote of approval from the
Security Council, but were denied
admission by the Russian veto, DR..
Arce said.
Under his Interpretation Of the
U. N. charter, the Argentine dele
gate explained, the General Assem-
bly, can vote on the admission of
the countries even without a favor
able recommendation from the Sc
curity Council.
Sir Alexander Cadogan, Chief
British delegate to the U. N. Sc
curity Council, also sailing, said it
was his Interpretation of the Char
ter that DR.. Arce's proposal could
not be carried out.
According to the strict meaning
Of the Charter, you can't do that"
he said. You have got to have a
favorable recommendation from the
Security Council. That's very un-
fortunate, but that's the case"
Cadogan also commented on a
report from Lake Success that the
British would not support Israels
application for U. N. membership.
He explained his delegation took
this position because Britain had
not yet recognized the country.

Also if Brown had been will

Brown, who coached the 1886

son was a star, had learned
from experience. He wanted one
man to lead the team, have the

His man was Garrison.

Ace Hur|er, 18, Signs
With Cubs, 10 Play
On Farm Team
BY the Asseeiefed Press

CHICAGO, Feb. 5.-The scram-
BILE by 10 major league clubs for
the signature of George "zoot"
zoeterman, 1S-year -old high school
pitching star, was all over today
and the Chicago Cubs were ready to
send him to. their Decatur Qll0
farm club.
The young left-hander, who
pitched four. no-hitters in high
school competition, was signed yes
terday by James T. Gallagher, gen.
eral manager of the Cubs, to con-
tract with Decatur.
Gallagher announced that the
prep star had rejected offers from
nine other clubs, but he did not
disclose how high the Cubs had to
go to outbid the others. It has long
been the policy Of the Cubs not to
divulge players salaries. Gala
CHER said the youth, who once had
been signed by the Chicago White
Sox, picked the Cubs because he
wanted to pitch for Chicago club.
The former Chicago Christian
High School southpaw will join De-
catur March 20 at its spring train
ing camp at Selma, Ala, and his
progress to pitching duty With the
Cubs will depend on his success in
Three-I competition.
The pursuit of Foot began last
Saturday, a day after his grad.
Station, when the processions sof In
terviews with major league repre-.
5sentatives began. The chase ended
yesterday in the Cubs Wrigaey Field
office. Their plans for szOsternnan

course, which possibly could bring
him to Wrigley Field late next sea-
son for his Chicago debut.
Being with the Cubs will give me
II days at home every summer"
zoeterman said. I'm going to start
doing a lot of walking to get my
legs in shape"
Last November Zoeterman's orig
inal contract with the Chicago
White Sox was voided by Commits
sioner A. B. Chandler and the club
was fined $500 for violating the rule
against signing athletes while they
are still in high school.

Three Big Prizes
OF Lush List Go
Erwin, Wegznek Lead
Winners Among Men;
Further Audit Due
By Rod Thomas

Here's a quick breakdown on the
Goth annual Evening Star bowling
tournament, ended last Saturday
night after q month Of competition
on all Of the mapleways of the
Washington area sanctioned by the
National Duckpin Congress.
Total entries-15,926.
Principal winners-Robert Erwin
and Lucille Young. Erwin, grocery
clerk, shot set Of 40 in College
Park Business Mems League at Uni
versity Recreation Center, added a
handicap of 81 pins for a gross of
4s1 and for it will collect 5000. Mrs.
Young, competing at Hi-Skor as q
member of Elks' Ladies' League,
equaled Erwin's scratch score, tackled
on IS franked sticks and crossed ass
for prize Of slo0.
Entries May Top 1e,o6o.
MISUNDERSTANDING cents Of
each dollar entry fee in The Star
tournament goes to the prize fund;
rs cents to the Bowlers' Victory Le-
gion. The prize fund today
amounted to $11 1,944.50; the con-
tribution to the BVL, $3,9S1.50. In
the meantime, several bowling
plants requested time to make re-
checks on entries with the posi-
bility that the tournament total
would surpass 10000.
Outstanding performer in the
event in general was Mrs. Young,
who will collect three major prizes
for high scratch set for women, 40;
for high gross set for women, 455,
and for second high scratch game
for women, ITO. But the sensation
of the tournament was unheralded
Bernice Many, who rolled a game of
178 at Fort Davis, not only a record
for skirted bowlers in the event, but
one of the highest ever registered by
woman duckpinner anywhere. It
was 70 pins above her average of 80.
Wegznek Among Big Stars.
Another exceptional hotshot waS
Chester Wegznek, who competed at3
Lafayette. He tied for high scratch
game among the men with 1874, was
second best in scratch sets with IA
and was eighth in gross sets with
36-47S. For the top game, he dead-
locked Bill Duvall, who rolled at
Petworth, plant which produced
several champions in Star tourna-
ments in years when there were no
handicaps-notably Tony De Fino
and Bess Ackerman. In scratch
sets, Wegznek was second to Bill
Via, who registered 456 at Hyatts-
vile Recreation.
Arville L. Ebersole, chairman OF
the National Bowling Council, a
Washington man who is referee of
The Star tournament, has certified
Erwin and Mrs. Young as the first
prize winners. Much auditing must
be done before the complete prize
list, containing 1000 awards, is pub
lished."

By Button and
Mrs. Fraser
America Vaults Into
Possible 4th Place
In Team Standings
BY the Associated Press

ST. NORTH. Switzerland, Feb. S.
-Eighteen-year-old figure skater
Dick Button and skier housewife
Gretchen Fraser won Olympic
championships for the United
States today, vaulting America into
probable fourth place in the team
standings now topped by Switzer-
land.
Joining brisk United States
rally after the early part of the
fifth winter games had been DOM:
mated by Europeans. the Young
Englewood, N. j., specialist gave an
almost f1awless performance In his
free skating tests.
In the opinion of nine judges,
his lowest score was SIS and his
highest 6 points, which Is perfec-
ton.
Surprise Triumph.
Mrs. Fraser, the Vancouver,
Wash, ski star, scored a surprise
triumph earlier in the difdcult
women's special slalom.
Meanwhile, pretty Babara Ann
Scott of Canada took a commando
ing lead IN the compulsory figure
tests-first half of her bid to re-
place Sonia Henie as Olympic fig
ure skating queen and a champions
ship also seemed assured for her.
The Alps-bred Swiss, scoring in
every event of the day. took over
the team lead from Sweden, 60
points to 54.
Mrs. Fraser's swishing skis
brought America its first Olympic
championship earlier today through
a victory in the difficult women's
slalom.
Outclassing Europe,s masters In
their own speciality, the tiny West
Coast star made two brilliant, zig
tagging descents over the precip-
itous Alpine course in l minute 57.2
seconds.
Reinhalter Wins Slalom.
The mems counterpart of the
slalom went to Edi Reinhalter of
Switzerland as the Swiss forged in
front of Sweden in the race for team
honors. Reinhalter had two dashes
down the mountainside in total of
2 minutes 1913 seconds.
The victory-following on the
heels of her second-place medal in
yesterdays Alpine combined event,
consisting of both downhill and
slalom skiing-was one of the big
gest upsets of the current games.
In winning the second title of the
day for the United States, Button
beat out Hans Gerschwiler, the
world champion from Switzerland,
who placed second.
Young Button, who earlier had
captured the European title at
Prague, made an almost perfect
showing in the free style tests after
assuming a lead in the difficult
compulsory figures earlier this week.
Button was followed on the ice
by John Lettengarver of st. Paul,
Mimi, who performed with great
speed and nonchalance.
Lettengarver received no mark
below five and appeared to have q
good chance for third place.
Jimmy Grogan, the 16-year-old
star from Oakland, Calf, the first
American to compete, skated diff
ficult program and received a high
marking.
Gerschwiler suffered a fall during
his series but recouped quickly.
