3-DAY GOAL WEEK
 DECLARED UNFAIR
 BY 50. OPERATORS

WASHINGTON, Dec. 28-R- Southern coal operators today com- plained to the National Labor Re- lations Board that the three-day coal mining week is an unfair labor practice.
 Suggesting that the Board seek 2 court order to end the short work week, the operators said it is CO., ercion. They also told the Board that John L. Lewis, leader of the United Mine Workers, has refused to bargain in good faith under the Hartley Law.
 The Southern Coal Producers Association filed the charges with the office of NLRB General Coun- sel, Robert N. Denham.
 The action came after a long strategy huddle by the organiza- tion's policy group.
 President Joseph E. Moody sald that the decision on whether an injunction would be sought by the NLRB rested with the regional director in Baltimore.

ASKS INDICTMENT
 OF ! WITNESSES
 IN BRIDGES TRIAL

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 28r-R- Vincent Hallinan, chief defense at torney for Harry Bridges, yester- day disclosed that he had asked for the indictment of two prosecu- ton witnesses in the current Bridg- es perjury trial.
 The case is in recess until Jan- uary 3.
 The two witnesses, Manning Johnson and Paul Crouch, testified that Bridges was elected to the Communist National Central Com mittee in 1886 and was introduced under the name Rossi at a meet ing of the committee in New York.
 In letter to Kenneth Clare of Oakland, Calif., Federal Grand Jury Foreman, Hallinan demanded that the witnesses be indicted for perjury and asserted that he has documentary proof that Bridges was in California at the time the witnesses testified they saw him in New York. Bridges is charged with perjury in connection with the testimony by which he ob- tained citizenship in 1946. He tes- tified he was not, and had not been, a Communist Party member.

FAMOUS RUNNER
 KILLED

NEW YORK, Dec. 28-tR-Dr. John E. (Jack) Lovelock, 39, the New zealand-horn Olympic runner who once set world record in the mile run, was killed today by a subway train in Brooklyn.
 Police said Lovelock apparently suffered an attack of dizziness and fell from the station platform in front of the Coney Island bound train at the Church Avenue sta- ton.
 The Oxford-educated physician ran his world record mile at Princeton, N. J., in July, 1883, beat ing Bill Bonthron in 4:07.6.
 In the Olympic games at Berlin in 1886, he set a world record of 347.8 in the 1,50o-meters run, beat the American mile champion Glenn Cunningham by six yards in what many experts called the finest race of the games.
 Lovelock was on the staff of Manhattan's Hospital for Special Surgery.

CHURCHILL, MAN OF HALF CENTURY"
 DECLARES TIME

NEW YORK, Dec. 28--tR-Wins- ton Churchill-Time Magazine ed- itors say--is the Man of the Half Century"
 The portrait of the wartime Brit ish Minister by American Artist Ernest Hamlin Baker is on the cover of the Jan. ? Time which contains 16-page supplement The Half-Century."
 No mans history" Time says, "can sum up the dreadful wonder full years l90O-50. Churchill's story comes closest"
 Describing the British leader as "one of the half-centurys greater politicians Time says: Sometimes wrong, often right, he fought his way toward the heart of every storm"
 In summarizing the period, Time weaves Churchill's career into the international picture.
 His chief contribution was to warn of rocks ahead, and to lead the rescue parties. He was not the man who designed the ship: What he did was to launch the 1ifeboats That a free world survived in 1850 with a hope of more progress and less clamity, was due in large mea- sure to his exertions."

Tiny Fungus Found In Cancer; Common
 Growth in All Type!

NEW YORK, Dec. -tR-Dis- covery of fungi, tiny invisible plants, growing in cancers was announced to the American Association for the Advancement of Science today
 The discovery is one of the most startling of this century.
 The cancer fungi are the same that grow all around us, in soil, food, plants and trees.
 They have been found in every cancer tested. The tests embraced 20 human cancers, including four different kinds, and 100 mice can- cers.
 2 The fungi never have been found in any healthy tissue, with one exception They show in breasts oi those species on female mice which are susceptible to breast cancer
 The discovery was reported by Dr. Irene Corey Diller of the Institute for Cancer Research, Philadelphia, She is one of the major research contributors to the American Can- cer Society.
 Dr. Diller showed enlarged pic lures of the fungi. One is a black fungus, common in soil and milk products, named altenaria. Another is grey, common in the tropics, known as syncephalastrum race mosum. Dr. Diller said that how this tropical form got into Phila- delphia cancers is mystery.
 There are also some common yeast fungi not yet identified.
 Dr. Diller cautioned against ac- cepting results so far as proof that fungi cause cancer.
 "A great deal more work must be done," she said.

SALMON "SNIFF" HOME FIRES, SAY
 FISH SCIENTISTS

NEW YORK, Dec. 26-R-Dis- covery that migrating salmon prob ably smell their way back home from the sea was reported to the American Association for the Ad- vancement of Science today.
 The discovery was made at the University of Wisconsin by train- ing salmon minnows. These little things learned to discriminate be- tween the waters from different lakes by the differences in the smell.
 The experiments were done by Prof. Arthur D. Hasler and by Warren Wisby. Blind minnows were used. They were trained by re- ceiving food when they swan in water from one lake, but, by being given mild electric shock if they chose the water from another lake.
 Finally they chose the lake that gave them food in preference to all others and regardless of what hap pened.
 How salmon find their way back to the same river and same creek from thousands of miles at sea has been one of the great fish mys- terieS.

RITA GIVES BIRTH TO
 GIRL BABY

LAUSANNE, Switzerland. Dec 28 --lR-A baby princess was born to- day to Rita Hayworth, the glam- orous red-haired movie star who married Moslem Prince Ally Khan last spring.
 The taby, weighing about five and half pounds, was born about eight hours after Rita made pre- dawn dash to exclusive Montchoisi clinic.
 The new princess name will be Yasmin, the Arabic spelling for the fragrant jasmine flower used in Southern France for making per- fume.
 Prince Ally, unshaven, haggard but smiling made the announce ment to newsmen outside the clinic doors.
 Rita had very tough time," he said but added with a smile: 'It has gone off all right. She is very tired"
 DELIVERY UNDER GAS
 The Prince said the birth was natural one, delivered under gas.
 Ritas first daughter by a pre- v.ous marriage was delivered in 1914 by Caesarian section.
 Princess Yasmin, with the mix ture of four bloods in her veins spanish-American from her mother and Iranian-Italian from her father is the granddaughter of Aga Khan, spiritual leader of millions ot Moslems of the Islamic sect and reputedly one of the worlds richest men.
 The Prince said bis 31-year-old wife had seen the child few min utes after regaining consciousness.
 GOOD LOOKING BABY
 "She seemed awfully pleased,' Ally said. T myself think she is very good looking girl. but Icing her father I can't really say so myself"
 Rita has one other daughter, five-year-old Rebecca Welles, born when she was married to actor producer Orson Welles. She was di- vorced from Welles in 1948. Ally has two sons by a previous marriage, Prince Karin Aga, 13, and Prince Amyom Mohammed, II, who are attending school about IS miles from Lausanne.
 Ally received divorce from Brit ish-born Joan Yarde-Buller in Paris only few weeks before he mar ried Miss Hayworth last May 27 at villaris on the French Riviera after a highly-publicized romance.
 Prince Ally, whose marriage to Rita took place at Vallauris, France, May 27, has said that premature babies are not unusual in his family.
 Messages of congratulations were pouring into the hotel within an hour after the announcement of the birth.

Red Ink Top Priority for
 New(ongress
By JACK BELL

WASHINGTON, Dec 28-LR- Returning lawmakers chalked up red ink spending today as the top domestic issue in the new session of Congress opening next week.
 Democrats joined Republicans in deploring a state of financial af- fairs in which the government will have to go on borrowing from the people because its outgo is digger than its income from taxes.
 At that point, members of the two major parties parted violently in their comments.
 FAIR DEAL" PROGRAM
 Over many Democratic protests Republicans put the finger on the Truman administrations "Fail Deal" program as the cause of the Treasury's present financial woes.
 Senator Taft of Ohio, who heads the Senate COP Policy Committee said even worse troubles are ahead if the Democrats can push the Grammar Farm Subsidy payment through Congress.
 In weekly report to Ohio voters, he estimated the subsidies under such a plan would run to $6,000,- o00,0O0 yearly.
 The scheme would guarantee the farmers income on some perishable products, letting those products reach their own price level on the market. Under the plan the con- sumner would benefit from the lower prices.
 NECESSARY MEASURE
 Some Democrats, including Sen ate Majority Leader Lucas of Illi- nois, defended red ink spending as necessary measure to insure world peace.
 Lucas, announcing he is running for reelection, told an audience in Havana, H., last night:
 T hate deficit financing. hate to have the government borrowing money from the American people. But if we must make a choice between period of deficit financ- ing to strengthen our chance for peace or running the chance of engaging in an atomic war, will declare right now that I prefer the risk of deficit financing"
