Here's a 15-year-old girl who
plays the TUBA horn that was
too much for her father.
She is Betty Laverne Fogle of
Baltimore, one Of the delegates to
a weekend meeting of the Saliva
ton Army Young Peoples Coun-
Gil.
Hers is a sousaphone, one of
the largest of them. It weighs 80
pounds. But yesterday when call
ed on for a solo before the $50
young people in the Commerce
Department Auditorium, she had
stage fright and began to tremble.
Then she sighed nightly within
the innertube-l confines of the
instrument, gulped three times,
placed her fingers on the three
valves and flattened her lips to
the mouthpiece.
Out of the flaring bell came a
true bass B fiat playing of He
Is Mine" During the number
about 16 bars and a repeat-there
was little wind showing in Betty's
flushed cheeks.
Il just don't play that way"
she said later, although some
people do"

Surprised at Plan.
On, December II the board
members replied to Mr.. Denham
as follows:
Thank you for informing US
that the company now seeks court
review of the boards decision in
the Haleston case.
in view Of the special circum-
stances present in this particular

willing to waive the provisions of

Finding (Mr. Denham's assistant)

writer who is to work on this case
under her supervision.
eve note with surprise that the
general counsel is thinking seri-
ously of filing a brief amlcus in
court, presumably in support Of
the company's position and in
opposition to the boards. We
trust that the general counsel. fol-
lowing reflection upon the total
inconsistency of such a course
with proper governmental prac-
tice. will decide not to follow it.
We should much prefer not to find
it necessary to express opposition
to such action, in court or else
where"
Sees Jurisdiction Invaded.
On December %, Mr.. Denham
wrote the board:
"Concerning your memorandum
Of December 12, 1949, it is my
thought to supply the court with
my position in connection with
the boards attempt to invade the
exclusive jurisdictional area of the
general counsel.
II regard the line of decision
(by the board of which the Hale
ston Drug Co. case is typical, as
wholly unWarranted at law and
such as to impose a duty on me,
both as statutory officer and as
an officer of the court, to place
it before the court on the basis
of the statute (Taft-Hartley law

"Of course, if the members of
the board resent such presentation
and desire to express opposition

The board is in receipt of your

to get the Harbor Garage torn
down to provide playground site.
President Frank M. Hurst said
the association will take the prob

The commissioners decided Fri

Republican Senators
To Push Anti-Acheson
Drive This Week
BY the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press
A number of Senate Republi-
cans plan to "go after" Secretary
of State AcheSon in a new series
of attacks.
Senator Bridges, Republicans, OF
New Hampshire, told reporters
yesterday that "a whole group of
Republicans" will be at work on
the blast-Acheson project for the
next few weeks, land the parade
will start next week"
The New Hampshire Republican
is expected to lead off with a
Senate speech attacking the man
whose department and Far East
policies have come under increas-
ing Republican fire.
Senator Bridges speech is
expected to be followed by others.
Senator Knowland, Republican,
of California, said members of a
Senate Appropriations subcom-
mittee will demand an explana-
tion tomorrow from the State De-
partment on what is being done
to keep the British from turning
over II transport planes to the
Chinese Communists.
Flanders Opposes Move.
Senator Flanders, Republican, of
Vermont, told the Senate Thurs
day that he wanted no part of an
effort by some Republicans to oust
Secretary Acheson.
Il wish to disassociate myself
from this undertaking." he said
but I do not wish to join with
those who are seeking to assist
him toward a more constructive
line of policy -"
Senator Bridges said Senator
Flanders apparently sis very much
in the minority" with his stand.
The Republican fire comes at a
time when Secretary Acheson is
trying to enlist congressional sup
port for a new Far East policy.
Secretary Acheson and Am
bassador Philip Jessup-Who re-
Gently visited the Orient-are due
to discuss the Far East situation
Wednesday with the Senate For
eign Relations Committee. And
the State Department has started
series of informal meetings with
lawmakers to explain the ad-
ministration's aims in the China
area.
But Senator Bridges said any
new approach to the Far East
should be started with a "long
overdue cleaning out of personnel
in the departments Far Eastern
Division"
That would be a new, novel and
constructive approach" Senator
Bridges said.
Would Keep Planes from Reds.
Senator Knowland said he is
interested particularly in keep
ing American-built transport
planes in Hong Kong out of
Communist hands. The II planes
involved were the property of
two Nationalist airlineS Gen.
Claire Chennault claimed to have
bought them from the National
lists but Hong Kong court re-
jected his claim and handed them
over to Communist employees of
the two airlines.
The Nationalist air force is on
the lookout to shoot the trans
ports down If the Reds try to
move them out of Hong Kong.
Senator Knowland SAID that de-
spite the court decision, he be-
lieves there is some adrninistra-
tive or other action the British
could take to prevent the Com
munists from actually adding the
ships to their arsenal.
President Truman has stood by
Secretary Acheson and has said
he will stay on the job.

Your Lightweight Woo|ens

For several seasons there has
been a decided trend toward
lighter-weight fabrics, woolens
and worsteds especially. Both
men and women have demanded
fabrics that combine lightness,
porosity and good looks, and the
weavers have been quick to sup
ply them. Even coatings such as
heeces are featherweight now
though they sacrifice none of their
softness, depth or sheen in the
conversion.
