Should we then turn hopefully to

constructive program and that their
criticisms were an important factor in
getting US embroiled in Korea. They
are capitalizing on McCarthyism.

Ohio Horses
Are Different

COLUMBUS, O. Up Down III
West Virginia, Mrs. Opal Queen of
Huntington told deputy sheriffs,
the horses are part of the pastoral
scene. They're nice to look at as
you drive by.
But in Ohio, it's a horse Of a
different color.
Seems Mrs. Queen was driving
to Indian Lake in Central Ohio.
She saw horse in the road. She
slowed down to avoid hitting it.
But when she tried to pass h e
horse it reared and kicked out the
right side of the windshield n d
dented the hood and fender.
Then the horse merrily galloped
away, without waiting for police
officers to come and make re-
port.
Deputy sheriffs here told her
to return to Pickaway County,
where the accident happened, and
tell the sheriff about it.

Associated Press Sports Writer
How does a guy who has been
labelled .'the perfect player feel
after pulling his first rock" in a
long and brilliant baseball career? :?
Foolish, admitted Joe Dim
aggio, the great outfield star of
the New York Yankees.
For the first time since he came
up to New York in 1886, Dimag-
gio felt like digging huge hole
in Yankee Stadium and diving in
to it. The flawless flychaser, rec
ognized for his ability to do the
right thing at the right time, real
ly pulled a dilly last night before
1854 unbelieving spectators.
Fortunately for him, the Yank-
ees came on to win = beating the
Detroit-Tigers, 5-4 TO minimize
Dimaggio's mental lapse. The vic
tory increased the Yanks' first
place margin to 21a games over
the Idle Cleveland Indians n d
Boston Red Sox. It was New
York's 33rd victory in 43 home
games.
This is the sequence of events
that led to Dimaggio's rock" The
score was tied % when the Tigers
came to bat in the eighth. Doub-
les by Gerry Priddy and George
Kell with one out put the Tigers
in front, 3-2. Steve Souchock, an
ex-Yankee. flied deep to Dimag-
gio. Kell tagged up and headed
for third.
Dimaggio made no attempt to
head him off. Instead, he calmly
began to Jog toward the Yankee
dugout with the ball in his right
hand. Dick Bartell, alert Tiger
third base coach, took in t e
situation at a glance and waved
Kell plateward. Joe finally un-
derstood why his mates were
yelling at and waving to him. But
by then it was too late. Kell had
scored the second run of t h e
inning.
Il thought it was the third
out" explained the embarrassed
Yankee clipper later.

energy for square dancing

good and the bunks are set

SOLDIER SENDS HOME KOREAN
LEOPARD RUG WORTH 100000

New York, David Namkong, told
the New York times it was worth
about 100000, "if such a price
less national treasure can have
price tag"
The rug is maze up of 48 match
ed leopard skins and measures 18
and a half feet by eight feet. Sgt.
Elvere H. Giltner sent it home last
month, writing his parents the
cook who sold it to me said it
was worth at least S25,000 and
came from the Chang Duk pal
ace in Seoul"
The Giltners, who have six
other children, took one look at
the rug and decided it was too
big for their house when the rug
arrived in duffel bag June 18.
They sent it to a fur storage
company, and announced it was
for sale to the highest bidder
In New York, Namkoong saw
a newspaper photograph of the
rug, and thought it was one owned
by the late Queen Min, who re-
ccived many fabulous gifts from
foreign potentates.
He said il was very cd d
