By the Assoeiafed Press

BELGRADE, Yugoslavia, April
13. - Official Yugoslav sources
generally applauded today the
dismissal Of Gen. Macarthur, but
the Yugoslav man-in- -the-street
wasn't so sure. ..
The Zagreb newspaper Vjasnik,
which generally reflects the opin-
ion of Tito's government, said
Gen. MacArthur's actions repre-
sented attempts of "reactionary
elements in the United States to
promote a crusade against. COM
munism in general" This, it con-
tinued. was damaging a peace
full solution (of the Korean war;
and harming the prestige of the
United Nations"
But ordinary Yugoslav citizens
pondered whether the generals
dismissal might not be inter-
preted as appeasement which
ultimately would encourage ag-
greSSion by Russia.

that my biggest win was in match

Last year Harper played in 10
tournaments. He finished out
of the money in 10 of them but
he collected $11, ,000-his largest
take for any year since he began

NEW YORK, Mar. 13.-The
National Basketball Association
ends its regular season Sunday
and records of all sorts are either
being broken or are in the process

With eight of 10 all-time indi-
vidual marks under attack, all the
offense records of the circuit are
in danger of being washed out.
George Mikan of Minneapolis
already has eclipsed one mark, his
299 personal fouls committed to
date being two more than his own
peak of last year. He has three
games to set new marks.
He now needs only 26 points to
top his own previous mark of
1855 set a year ago. .Mikan has
been averaging 35 points per game
for the last eight starts. He can
better his field goals record of $40
with just six more. Furthermore,
if he can just score just IS more
points, he'll crack his best sea-
sons average, 1913 per game.
And he needs only Is foul points
to beat his record of SGT.
Dick MCGUIRE of New York al
ready has surpassed his 1850
record of 1856 assists, with 800
and three games left. Andy Phil

two games remaining.
