ANNAPOLIS, Md, July TO-
One of those rarities in a sailboat
race-a dead heat-yesterday kept
the Thistle Glass very much in
the Annapolis Yacht Club regatta
spotlight as a big fleet of yachts
concluded the clubs 18th annual
all-sail show.
AS it began three days ago, the
regatta ended with a whole sail
breeze that gave the little packets
some of the best sailing of the
week end.
The smart northeaster was re-
sponsible, in part, for Eric Nord-
holm, Thistle winner from WASH
ington, tearing his jib after hold
ing a good lead over Bill Heintz
of West River. Fighting hard to
maintain the lead, Nordholm's Flu
Manchu surged across the finish
line with Heintz's Highlander so
close the committee threw up its
hands and declared it dead heat.
Thanks to a first and a second
from the day before, Nordholm
remained on top in points and
was declared the Central Atlantic
class champion. These boats,
along with Flu Manchu and High
lander, qualify for the class ma
tionals at Milford, Conn, August

It's automatic in sports that a
good big man beats a good little
one. 1t was the reverse in the
case of a couple of ponies that
captured honors in the highly
successful Silver Spring pony and
junior show yesterday at Meadow
brook.
The grand championship went
to Merry o, a diminutive gray
pony entered by Carroll Eberling
of Chevy Chase. The reserve
title fell to 23-year-old Snow
flake, a large sized specimen
owned by jeanne Green of War
renton. Va.
1t was the largest pony and
junior event of the season. Three
of the % classes were eliminated
by darkness.
Merry o, in addition to her
grand championship awards for
which the tiny mount accumu-
lated 81 points. was winner of the
small ponies under saddle, over
fences and the stake, placed in
the pair event and was third in
the model to take the small-sized
hunter championship with 19
points. Merry o also was the win
ner of the small pony touch and
out to be reserve champion in
the jumper division.

fathers footsteps, Joe Green, one

Inboard Racing Loses
Ardent Enthusiast in
Howard Scots Death
Special Dispatch 10 The sior

EDGEWOOD, Md, July TO-
Inboard motorboat racing lost one
of its most recent converts and
ardent enthusiasts yesterday when
Howard w. Scott, so. of Alexan-
dria, Va, died of a heart attack
shortly after racing his hydro
plane in the annual Bush River
Regatta. His death cast cloud
over a program that saw another
pilot injured and five world rec
ords broken.
A former disciple of outboard
racing, Scott helped organize the
Capital Power Boat Association
last winter at Washington and
was secretary of that organiza-
ton. Before this year he COM
peted exclusively in outboard
events and was a well known and
popular figure at all major re-
gattas in the East He made two
attempts to win the annual AL
bany to New York race in 194S
and last year.

Driving a new boat, My Folly,
powered by a 48-cubic-i Inch mo-
tor, Scott had enjoyed wide sue
cess in his first year in inboard
competition. He won the Hines
Memorial Award at Pittsburgh
and brought home trophies from
regattas at Norfolk, Baltimore and
Hampton Roads, Va.
The racing pilot had tried for
a world record in earlier trials
yesterday and missed by only one
tenth of a second. He won the
first heat in the race for boats
of My Folly's class. but was dis
qualified because his craft beat
the starting gun. It was while
resting in the clubhouse after this
race that Scott suffered the heart
attack. Accompanied by his wife
Mrs. Mabel Scott, he was being
taken to Hartford Hospital at
Havre de Grace when he died.
A son, Howard w. Scott, jr., an
engineer living in Cleveland, ar
rived here today to help make
funeral arrangements. They had

Separate Bills Seen.
There was some likelihood the

two separate bills.
One would embrace all of Mr.

credit and commodity speculation
either taken out of the bill or con-
siderably watered down.
A separate bill could then be
introduced Immediately to provide

Such a compromise repeatedly
was acceptable to Southern Dem

Republicans to battle for exemp-
ton of commodity exchanges and

Arms Aid for Korea
Asked Months Ago,
KnowIand Declares
BY the Associated Press

Senator Knowland, Republican,
of California said yesterday that
seven months in advance of the
Communist invasion of South
Korea, he carried to United States
officials a personal plea from
Korean President Syngman Rhee
for more weapons to defend his
little republic.
He said he talked with Rhee in
the course of a general inspection
of the Pacific area and defense
bases last fall, as a member of the
Senate Armed Services and Ap-
preparations Committees. Senator
Knowland quoted Rhee as having
assured him then that there
would be no aggression on the
part of his government but they
did need weapons to defend their
freedom"
The Senator said that, upon his
return to the United States. he
passed along Rhee's request ito
officials" He did not identify
them or say whether they were
officials of the State or the De-
fense Department.
Senator Knowland told these
things to reporters after the APP
preparations Committee had re-
ceived testimony behind closed
doors from Brig. Gen. William l..
Roberts, who headed the United
States Military Mission to South
Korea until just before the inva-
sion of that area last June by
North Korean Communists.
Senator Hayden, Democrat, of
Arizona, a veteran member of the
appropriations group, character
lied Gen. Roberts testimony as
"just a post mortem."
Other Senators said Gen. Rob-
erts told them. among other
things, that the United States
turned down numerous South
Korean requests for additional
planes, tanks and heavy guns.
The committee currently is
considering President Truman's
request for an additional sos
billion to build up this Nations

themselves strong enough or des-
perate enough to try both Cinclud-
ing the drive toward Pusan in
the SOUTH attacks at once"
Objective Probably Masan.
Mr.. Erickson reported the Com
munists were observed massing
in that area yesterday. He said
the first objective of a Red drive
probably would be high ground
near Masan, only 27 miles west
of Pusan.
Should that fall, the American
defenders would be pushed back
to a point where Pusan would be-
come an advance supply base,"
Mr.. Erickson added.
The 9th Army communique re-
ported unidentified planes strafed
United Nations installations last
night.
One of the air attacks was
against American positions around
Masan. The other was against
sector of the northern front held
by South Koreans.
On the northeastern anchor of
the front, near Yongdok, the
North Koreans were described as
suffering heavy casualties in a fu-
tile attack on Korean republican
forces. Yongdok is on the east
