Prisoner Issue
Blocks Truce

MUNSAN, Korea (AP)-Com-
munist truce negotiators today
made a yelled threat of Red Of
fensive as Korea armiStice talks
resumed after three-day recess
but Immediately begged down over
the prisoner of war issue.
The prisoner issue alone blocks
an armistice. The Reds demand
return of all their captured SOL
diers. The United Nations Com
mand says not a single captured
Red will be forced to return
against his will.
North Korean Ger. Nam II re-
peated his well-worn charges that
the Allies have been slaughtering
POWs. He referred to the April 10
riots on Koje Island which were
disclosed during the recess. Then
he declared:
The Korean Peoples Army and
the Chinese Peoples Volunteers
decidedly cannot sit by while see
ing their captured fellow combat
ants being slaughtered by your
side at will"
The U. N. spokesman, Brig. Gen.
William p. Nuckols, said Nam IFS
statement could be interpreted"
as a threat of stepped up warfare
by Communist troops.
But Maj. Gen. William K. Har-
rison, Jr, senior U. N. delegate,
passed off Nam IFS statement as
propaganda.
Another plenary session was
scheduled for Panmunjom tomor-
row at IL am. g pm. Tuesday
EST.
At the start of today's 34-minute
session Nam II demanded that the
Allies accept the Reds May 2 pro-
posal calling for return of $4,000
captured Reds. Harrison rejected
it.
Allied screening of 10000 Red
captives showed only 10000 want
ed to return to Red territory. Har-
rison offered the Communists the
right to participate in a rescreen-
ing of prisoners. Nam II refused.

Open Little League Games Al
Athletic Field Here Friday

ing the movement.

called for four o'clock. All sue
ceeding games will start at 6 pm.
Scheduled to play in the opener

as director. Expected to partici-
pate in the parade are. the High
School band; fire truck; represen-
tatives from sponsoring organiza-
tions; representatives from vet
erans groups with Colors; business
and professional men; all Scout
troops; all Little Leaguers I'M

gers and coaches and all Little
League officials. umpires and score
keepers. Il

in turn present his players. Out
standing civic leaders will be
called upon for brief remarks.
Mayor E. P. Speasmaker viii
throw the first ball when teams
are in place to start actual play.
Little League baseball is not
too different from Big League,
but some of the differences are
enumerated to help followers Of
the League better understand and
save critism of players.
Distance between bases Is 60
feet instead of 80 on big dia-
mond; pitchers mound is only a.
feet from home plate to accom-
modate the weaker and smaller
arms of small boys; home plate
is 2/3 the size of regulation home
base; outfield fence cannot be
over $50 feet from home plate at
either the first base or third base
foul line, making it possible for
some boys to hit home runs.
The wire backstop behind cat
cher is about 20 feet behind home
base, to help speed up the game
when catcher misses a pitch or
the pitcher throws a wild ball:
once a batter gets on base he is
not permitted to leave it until
the pitched ball passes home
plate.
The game is only six innings,
instead of nine unless the score
is tied at the end of the sixth. If
this occurs the game may continue
until either side is ahead at the
complexion of any full success
sive inning.
No Little League pitcher may
pitch more than nine innings in
any one calendar week unless the
score is tied at the end of the
ninth. In this case he may con-
tinue until the tie is broken at
the discretion of his manager.
Little League balls are slightly
lighter but the same diameter as
regulation balls; bats may not be
over 2A inches in diameter and
from % to 33 inches long.
Players wear regular baseball
uniforms and rubber Soled shoes.
No metal cleats are permitted.
Uniforms will be issued at the
Armory Thursday night at 1:s0
p. m.
