Churchill Reported
Planning 0Coa|ition
BY the Associated Press

IPSWICH, Eng. Mar. 12.-
Edgar Granville. a liberal member
Of Parliament, forecast today that
Winston Churchill will make q
new attempt for a national COM
bination to back him in the 1886
elections.
with this new set up he will
defeat the Tory (Conservative)
intrigues against his leadership, y
Granville said in q speech.
Expect Winston to deal with
this insurrection very soon," he
said.
Granville gave no hint of where
he got his information. Mr.
Churchill was a Liberal Party
leader until he Joined the Con-
servatives in the 1920s.
Increasing resentment at Mr..
Churchill has been noted. how
ever, among younger members of
the Conservative Party. The party
chieftains held a policy confer
ence after losing a special parlia-
mentary election in West London
an election the Conservatives
thought they had a chance to win
Mr.. Churchill refused comment
on Mr.. Granville's predictions.

Dynamite 10 Be Used
To Check Gulf Fire
Nv the Associated Press

NEW ORLEANS, Mar. 12.-Oil
firef1ghters will try to dynamite a
furiously burning gas well in the
Gulf of Mexico which has caused
81 100000 in damages.
Sheets of flame still lowered $50
feet into the sky tonight from two
wells in a tidelands operation at
Pass a Loutre, the easternmost
Mississippi River mouth.
Some water is beginning to
cough up with the heavy gas
flow.
simultaneously with the dyna-
mite attempt, workers now en-
gagged in removing debris plan a
drilling operation to cut off the
fire.
They can get close to the burn
ing wells because Of a wide gap
between the well nozzles and the
flames.
Shell Oil Co. officials said they
planned to move a marine rig to
the scene and bore relief wells
into the burning holes. In this
operation, heavy mud would be
pumped in to cut off the air and
choke the flames. The two wells
are owned by the Shell Co.
The blaze started late yester-
day after gas began blowing under
terrific pressure from a direction
hole being drilled from a barge.
The heat generated from the
fire melted a flowline through
which oil was being produced
from another well alongside the
first.
A company official, who esti-
mated the damage at 100000.
said a drilling barge, derrick and
an oil tanker were destroyed by
the fire.
OF the IL crewmen aboard the
rig, only one suffered burns.

| Navy Has Godget
That Tells What
| Rocket Sees
By ths Associofsd Press

The Navy has a new gadget
which tells what a rocket sees
in the upper regions above the
earth.
It can transmit go messages ut
once to q control point on the
ground, recording what his hap
pening in and around the missile.
It can describe the trajectory path
of the rocket, its speed, tempera-
lures, cosmic radiation and sup
ply a multitude of technical data.
The communicating outfit was
designed and built by the Applied
Physics Laboratory Of John Hop
kins University. at Silver Spring,
Md.
The system is needed for two
reasons: (a) The high altitude,
for high-speed missiles now used
can't carry men to jot down the
data, and (b) In rocket firings 1t
frequently happens that the rocket
head, containing recording instru-
ments, can't be located after
falling at remote spots.

George VI Recovering
From Operation for
Serious Leg Ai|ment
by the Associated Press

LONDON, Mar. ia gray
haired Scottish surgeon operated
on King George vi today in the
hope of relieving his serious leg
ailment.
The nine royal doctors who
gathered around an operating
table set up in Buckingham
Palace bedroom reported later the
kings condition was entirely
satisfactory"
A later bulletin tonight said the
king had a restful day" and his
recovery from the operation is
proceeding smoothly"
The operation was brief, but
delicate. The surgeon, Prof. James
r. Learmonth. severed a nerve
near the spine which controls the
tension Of the main artery in the
kings right leg.
For five months King George
has suffered from faulty blood
circulation in the leg that might
have caused gangrene and loss
Of the feet.
BY cutting the nerve-an oper-
alton called lumbar sympathec-
tomy-the doctors hoped to relax
the artery and permit the blood
to flow more freely.
The King was reported rest
ing fairly comfortably a few hours
after the operation. Princess
Elizabeth and Prince Philip left
the palace later in the day-a
sure sign that the royal family
was not worried.
The doctors reported last Tues
day that circulation in the left
leg was improving with treat
ment.
The Kings ailment - called
thrombo angiitis obliterans-was
discovered last November after he
complained that his feet felt
numb.
He has been resting most Of
the time since. A tour OF Aus
tralia and New Zealand by the
royal family this spring was post
poned.
