 George labels the departing trio as the finest entertainment unit to play in the Territory in long time"
 George says the popularity of his entertainers has been evidenced in the recent overflow crowds to hear Lois come back for repeated en- cores for everything from concerto to boogie, to watch the exotic dances of Hedi, and to listen to former minstrel man Kitch give the banjo a workout.

By ORLO ROBERTSON

NEW YORK, Oct. 9-iRt-Michi- gan State still rates as the No. l college football team in the country today but not by any great margin.
 The Associated Press second weekly nation wide poll of the sea- son gave Coach Biggie Munn's Spartans from East Lansing TO- point edge on Californias Golden Bears, with Tennessee's Vols not far back in third place.
 Michigan State was ranked first by 42 of the 112 writers and broad casters participating in the poll and received a total of 97l points on the basis of 10 points for first, nine for second and so on.
 California was No. l on 36 bal lots and received strong support for other high positions to roll up 961 points. Tennessee, the pre- season No. l eleven, received 821 tallies. with 180 of them coming from 18 first place selections.
 The top three teams were in the same order in the first poll last week but Michigan State held a much larger lead while Tennessee pressed the Bears for runner-up honors.
 The Washington Huskies, rated No 12 before the 20-13 loss to Southern California Saturday, skid ded out of the top 20 and Handed among the also-rans with only three points.
 Oregon State remained in the running for national honors, how ever, but dropped from the No. IS rating they received last week to No. 18. The Beavers collected 26 points.

Pep Talk
 Taken Up ByYanks
By BILL GRIMsLEY

NEW YORK, Oct. 9-tR-Cagey Casey Stengel doesn't go in much for pulsating pep talks. Before yesterdays game he called the Yan- kees together and told them: None of us has been doing worth a darn, including me. Now let's go." They went.
 Sal Maelie, whose 23 victories made him the star of the Giants in their unbelievable National League comeback, hasn't been able to hit his stride in the post-season playoffs. He had to be rescued in the decisive playoff game with Brooklyn and then yesterday bowed to the Yankees. But he takes some sort of prize for magnanimity:
 If somebody had to hit homer off me I'm glad # vas Joe DiMag- gio" he said. Hes a great guy and he's had t3 take a lot of abuse"
 Pretty soon Phil Rizzu5o is going to get the notion somebody on the Giants doesn't particularly like him. Saturday Eddie Stanky kicked the ball out of his glove on the famous field goal" play and Jim Hearn banged him with pitched ball that put a knot on his right wrist and bruise on his chest. Yester- day Stanky bounced a ball off the back of Phil's head on rundown play in the seventh.
 Rizzuto kept his sense of humor with the remark: Tt was soccer play. can play soccer, too"
 Best crack of the series to date: Leo Durocher has kissed so many of his Giants during the past few days it must be hard for him to get used to Laraine again"

earlier this year was that it was
legally impossible to grant wage
increases over two per cent OF

Cotton rayon textile workers Of

New Disagreements
May Follow Solution
OF Buffer Zone Issue
BY the Assoeiotsd Press

Top Government officials spoke
optirnistically yesterday Of the
changes for early agreement be-
tween United Nations and Com
munist negotiators at Kaesong on
the critical truce line issue.
The new approach being taken
by the subcommittee of the arInls-
tice negotiators accounts somewhat
for the brightened prospects as
Washington officials now see them.
But Communist China'S propa-
ganda emphasizing the possibility
of adjustments" in truce line de-
mandS is an even more important
source of optimism here.
The outlook for agreement on
the truce line, however, does not
extend yet to the whole question
of working out details of an arm
istice. A new crisis is expected to
arise over the question of armistice
enforcement. Specifically the U.s.
U.N. negotiators will demand that
international inspection teams have
access to all of North and South
Korea. But the Communists ap-
parently intend to oppose this.
Reds Agreed at First.
Weeks ago when the agenda for
the Kaesong sessions was being
debated the Reds agreed to dis
cusS inspection arrangements They
agreed with such readiness that
many people jumped to the con-
clusion this would not be a sore
point of debate.
However, reports to Washing
ton from Gen, Matthew B. Ridge
ways headquarters now indicate
that the Reds almost certainly
will oppose demands for what
Americans consider an adequate
inspection system. They are ex-
pected to advocate instead very
limited inspection. probably held
to the area of the front lines and
buffer zone.
This indicates another long dis
pute even If the question of es-
tablishing a dividing line be-
tween the belligerent forces should
be speedily resolved.
Move Along New Tack.
AS described by informed au-
thorities here the present efforts
of the negotiatorS to solve this
problem are moving along a new
tack. Formerly they were con-
cerned with laying out the line
that would be the center of a
buffer zone and measuring from
that a certain number Of miles to
the north for the Communist Army'S
front line and to the south for
the United Nations forward po-
sition.
That approach proved fruit
less, except that the long argu-
ments which ensued apparently
convinced the Communists that
the United States would not ac-
cept cease fire on the 38th Paral-
lei as the Reds had insisted.
Under the new approach, the
aim is to figure out what defensible
line each army might hold in the
vicinity of the 38th Parallel. Then
the space between those lines
would automatically become the
buffer zone.
The present battle line, though
mostly in North Korea, actually
