Medina Acts 10 Speed
investment Trust Suit
BY the Associoted Press

NEW YORK. Oct. A dead
line on evidence has been set in
an effort to limit the length of the
Governments civil antitrust suit
against II major investment bank
ing houses and the Investment
Bankers Association of America.
No evidence going back before
January !, 1885. will be admis-
sible.
The date was fixed by Federal
Judge Harold r. Medina as the
suit resumed yesterday after
three-month summer recess.
Judge Medina is sitting without
a. jury in hearing the case in
which the Government charges the
banking firms and the association
of which they are members con-
spired to- maintain monopoly in
the underwriting business. De-
fense counsel have entered
blanket denials.
The trial, which continues to-
day 10:30 am. EST is eight
months old and still is in its open
ing stages Judge Medina has
said it might drag on fol- years.
Judge Medina's selection of 1885
as a deadline for evidence coin
cides with the time selected by
the Government to begin a sta
tistical survey seeking to support
its charges.
The Government has charged
that the alleged conspiracy origi-
mated in 1915.

Hugh Gaitskell, came out with
more bad news.
Reserves Shrinking.
He told the country last night
that gold and dollar reserves OF
the ritish-banked sterling area
had shrunk by $598 million in the
past three months and were now
only $3,269, 100000. Members of
the sterling bloc are Burma, Iraq,
Iceland and all members of the
commonwealth except Canada.
This is the worst economic po-
sition Britain has been in since
the crisis of 1949 forced devalua-
ton of the pound from $4.03 to
$3.50.
What the gap actually means in
that these countries bought $500
million more worth of things
which must be paid for in gold or
dollars than they sold for those
Icurrencies.
= The conservative Daily Tele-
graph indicated the opposition
keynote in an editorial today
which declared what Gaitskell
did not explain was why steps
were not taken by the govern
ment long ago to strengthen the
country's r. finances SO that they
would be better able to meet the
difficulties that plainly lay
ahead"

LONDON, Oct. 4.-The House
of Commons wound up its affairs
today with traditional decorum,
putting aside momentarily its
anger over the loss of the oil
refinery at Abadan and shock at
the slump of Britain's gold and
dollar assets.
The formal preparations to dis
solve Parliament in advance for
the October 25 elections went off
without a hitch. The impartial
speaker ruled out of order an
attempt by Independent member
Raymond Blackburn to prod La
borite Prime Minister Attlee on
his governments handling of the
Iranian oil crisis.
All that remains now is the
formal dissolution by the King
tomorrow.

Loss of Iranian oil means that

l34 OF the more than 1900 Maryland women enrolled
at the Rural Women's Short Course at Maryland Uni
versity received fourth year certificates.
Mr.. Reeves told the attending the silver
anniversary that there is great need today
for missionary work that strong free organizations
do to- offset the subversve activities of those who
would destroy form of Government.
"Your desire for education is not confined to six
days in June, Secretary Reeves told them. at the
task of you and people like to revive in the mind
of the youth of your communities the truth that the
United States the newest the sturdest and the
est to perfect form of government that has found
workable"
Mr. Reeves called on the women to give their sup
port in the fight against crime and subversive activities
You who from the rural areas, he continued, may
say, that is not problem 1t is the problem for
the big cities and metropolitan countless Don't you

Several Interesting Night Games
Scheduled; Fireworks Display To

Colesville forged a full game in
front of the League Sunday by wal
Looping Rockville 12-4 on the vic
tors diamond Sunday In other
games the past ten days, Damascus
walked over Burtonsville Tuesday,
the 18th; while Saturday night
found Germantown outlasting Red
land rs. Sunday, Burtonsville
squeezed by Redland 3-2; Damas-
Gus won over Germantown SO, and
Gaithersburg bowed to UMCFD
81.
Saturday night, under the lights
at Gaithersburg, Paul Burner
struck out Is and allowed five hits
to outlast Willie Bort of Redland
and win rs. Junior Ganley COL
lected home run for the big blow
of the game.
Sunday at Colesville found the
hosts bats almost as hot as the
weather, pounding out eleven hits
for their seventh victory. Both
teams made plenty of substitutions
as the heat beat them down. Bob
Love and Jack Freeburger started,
with Love sticking around long
enough to get the win. Freebur-
ger left in the third and Bill Reed,
usually an outfielder, finished with
creditable six-innings job. Coles
vile built up an eight-run lead in
the first three innings to coast to
an easy victory. Gibson, Waters
end johnson led the Colesville at
tack with two hits apiece, while
Bucky Stull collected two for
Rockville.
Over at Burtonsville, Redland
out-did Burtonsville in everything
but scoring as they dropped their
tenth decision 80. Tommy Cline
of Redland held the hosts to six
hits while his mates collected
eight, but an error by the center
fielder decided the game in Bur-
tcnsville's favor.
At Germantown, Damascus won
stormy decision from the host
club 5-3. Mayors and Watkins
worked for Damascus, while Bro
den, Ricketts, and Morris all went
to the hill for Germantown. Dick
Burdette made the play of the
game by running deep to center
field to snag a line-drive blasted
by Senseney of Damascus. Two
were on at the time and would
have scored had the ball landed
safely.
Up at Beallsville, the host team
swamped Gaithersburg 81 as
Maynard Luhn coasted to victory
Beallsville's new shortstop, Crit.
