Reported by Pravda
BY the Associofed Press

MOSCOW, Nov. 3.-The Com
munist Party newspaper Pravda
today reported briefly the attempt
to assassinate President Truman.
The paper headlined the report.
Associated Press on Shooting at
Truman's residence"
It said:
"As the Washington CORE
spondent of the Associated Press
reports, as the result of shooting
from revolvers in front of the
temporary residence of Truman
at Blair House there were killed
at least three policemen from
Truman's guard and two other
persons.
"Eyewitnesses confirm that this
shooting took place when two per-
sons armed with Luger-type re-
volvers tried to break through into
Blair House where Truman was
getting ready to depart for Ar
lington Cemetery to be present at
e ceremony opening a monument
to English wartime Chief of Staff
(Sir) John Dill"
Pravda had no further COM
ment.
The Associated Press actually
reported that one would-be assas-
sin and one guard died of wounds
from the shooting and the other
Puerto Rican and two other
policemen were wounded.

As Aviation Leaders
BY the Assoeioted Press

President Truman presented
Americas highest aviation awards
the Harmon international tro-
phies-to three aviators yesterday
at White House ceremony. He
also handed out scrolls for five
aviators. three of whom are dead.

1t. Gen. James H. Doolittle,

the famous Toyko raid; Jacque-
line Cochran, wartime leader Of
the Women's Air Force Service
Pilots (Wasp). and Vice Admiral
Charles e. Rosendahl. wartime
commander Of the Navy's lighter

Mr.. Truman smilingly greeted
each person at the ceremony in
the White House garden and joked
with the award winners during

He noted that only single
large trophy was available for
the two men winners and ex-
pressed hope that some day there
would be one for the aviator and
one for the aeronaut Can airman
who specializes in lighter-than-
air craft.)
BY custom, the trophies nor
mally are presented annually to
Americans for "the most out
standing international achieve
ments in the arts and science of
aeronautics. However the awards

1926 by the late Col. Clifford B.
Harmon, and are continued under
q trust he established.
The certificates for secondary
honors for aviators went to Capt.

the first man to fly faster than
sound, and the late Geoffrey De-
Haviland, British air chief mar
shal, accepted the scroll for De-
Haviland.
The avaitrix runner-up award
went to the late Pauline Cover,
organizer of the British Aircraft
Ferry Service, using women pilots.
