The High Commissioner replied
There are no German military
contingents in (West) Germany
and we are not establishing them.
I suppose there would be very
many Germans who would be pre-
pared and anxious to defend Ger
many in the event of an attack,
if given the opportunity.
Il am not talking now about
the rearmament of Germany or
the creation of any sort of offset
to the Communist-inspired VolkS-
polizei peoples Police of the
Eastern zone. I am opposed to
the recreation of a German army.
But in the event of an attack,
such as took place in Korea,
believe it would be very difficult
indeed to deny the Germans the

their own soil"

Fishing Boat Reports
Sighting Mystery Sub
BY the Associated Press

ST. JOHNS, Newfoundland,
July 22.-The captain of foreign
fishing trawler has reported sight
ing a submarine which appeared
to be Russian off Newfoundland
July IL.
His story was told today by the
Sunday Herald, weekly news
paper. The Canadian navy at Ot-
tawa said its intelligence branch
also received the report several
days ago and that it is inveStigat-
ing.
The skipper, who left two days
ago after taking on supplies, was
reported to have told naval au-
thorities the submarine surfaced
in the early morning fog less than
100 yards from his trawler at
point off the Grand Banks about
410 miles east of this city.
The submarine dived hastily
after being on the surface only
about 10 minutes. The captain OBJ
served no American or British
markings on its hull.
The Herald said the captain re-
ceived the fright of his life."
And commented, I'm view of the
serious situation in Korea, any,
thing that Russia might have in
mind for this side of the Atlantic
would not be to the advantage of
North America"
The nationality of the captain
was not stated.
This was the first report of a
Russian submarine off the Allan
tic Coast, though unidentified sub
marines were sighted off New
Brunswick earlier this week and
OF Novia Scotia some weeks ago.
However. last March the United
States Navy reported radar and
sonar contacts with objects be-
Meyed to be lone or more foreign
submarines" off the North Cali
fornia coast in the Pacific.
The Sunday Herald story said
a number of British and Ameri-
can submarines were in the North
Atlantic, at the time the mystery
craft was sighted. A Canadian
Navy spokesman at Ottawa said,
however, that immediate checks
with London and Washington
showed no British or American
were in the area at
the time.
Legally there is no bar to the
movement of submarines anywhere
in the seven seas, so long as they
remain outside territorial waters.

RED SHOES" WILL
HAVE PREMIERE AT

Few films in the history of the
screen have won the uniformly great
honors heaped on The Red Shoes
the j. Arthur Rank dance-and-
drama romance in Technicolor
opening tomorrow at the Gross Goth
Century Theatre. This showing of
1.-THE Red Shoes" comes direct from
a sensational more than year run
in New York and elsewhere at re-
served-seat scales.
From the day of its debut in the
US, The Red Shoes" swept up
laurel after laurel. The National
Board of Review put it on it's list of
ten-beSt. The New York critics
adorned it with unstinting praise
and also chose it for their ten-best
category. No less than three Acad-
envy Awards went to it when these
were given out. Newspapers not only
reviewed and acclaimed it but sew
eral wrote editorials about it, an
almost unheard-of procedure. The
Encyclopedia Britannica chose it to
Illustrate the motion picture section
of the 1949 Britannica Book OF the
Year.
Leading the cast of 1.-The Red
Shoes" an Eagle Lions Films re-

series.
A capacity crowd Of $1,000 is ex-

A Yankee victory would put
Casey Stengel's men back at the top

day that the Tigers wrested the
lead from New York. They have kept
it for 81 days despite some trying
times.

victory, is leading with his most
effective pitcher against the Tigers
in an effort to get the jump. Byrne
has beaten the Bengals four times
without a defeat this season and
holds a lifetime 1873 mark against
them.
Houtteman, steadiest Tiger hurler
has 80 mark against New York
for the year. His lifetime mark is

RAINIER5 DEFEAT
OAKS, SCORE ST,
TO SPLIT SERIES
BY JIM HUBBARD
Associated Press Sportswriter)


The Hollywood Stars are looking
toward big John Lindell as the
thunderstick they need to beat their
way back as Pacific Coast League
pennant contenders.
Whether Lindell, the ex-New York
Yankee, can provide the power
punch Hollywood has lacked all sea-
son is a matter of conjecture. The
33-year -old outfielder busted lot
of fences IN the majors before he
lost his touch.
Even if he does produce in the
Coast League. his appearance may
be too late to help. The Twinks
trail Oakland by 81 games today,
and acquiring Lindell may be tanta-
mount to buying the horse after the
barn has burned down.
Lindell joins the Stars tonight for
an eight game series at Seattle. This
is the one that can either make
or break Hollywood-or Seattle, also,
for that matter.
The Rainiers gained an even split
in their 10-game battle with Oak
land by whipping the Oaks, S to /
last night But it didn't hoist Seattle
back into the first division. The
Rainiers remain fifth, half a notch
behind San Francisco.
Lefty Jim Davis displayed winning
form in checking the Acorns. Seat
tie collected 10 hits, most of them
in the first and third innings Oak
land had eight. It was the only
game of the evening.
