Rain at Wimbledon

WIMBLEDON, England. July 3.
"A chilling rain today held up
play in the all-American semi
finals of the Wimbledon womens
singles championships.
Courts remained covered as the
rain continued until mid-after-
noon but tournament officials
maintained silence about a post

Drobny was brilliant, but it still

the skill and experience Of II

Drobny had seen his early two

a head-spinning series of un-

AusteritY Program
By Joe ReichIer
Associated Press Sports Writer

Fatherly Steve O'Neill has dis
carded Eddie Sawyer's austerity
program and replaced it with a
more popular plan that appears
to be putting new life into the
awakening Phillies.
Under his kindly guidance, the
erstwhile Whiz Kids have been
playing a brand of baseball utterly
devoid of the early season futility
that stamped them as the biggest
disappointment of the year.
Since the 61-year-old O'Neill
took over as manager last Satur-
dal, the Phils have won four out
of six from the Dodgers and New
York Giants, the top two clubs in
the National League. That's .667
baseball. Under Sawyer, the Phils
won % and lost IS for a .444
percentage.

Steve refuses to take the credit
but in his first meeting with his

was to be midnight and 2 am

Stevenson 10 Spend
Nothing on Talks Until
Campaign Is Paid For
BY the Assoeioied Press

SPRINGFIELD, Nov. 28.-Gov.
Adlai E. Stevenson says he plans
to spend no money for future
radio or television addresses until
substantial" campaign deficits
are paid off.
The defeated Democratic presi-
Dental candidate said yesterday
he has received some 10000 letters
and kilograms since the Novem-
ber 4 election. He said in a state
ment:
Many have urged that I make
future radio and television ad-
dresses. Some have sent con-
tributions to pay for such appear

local groups have already been
organized to purchase radio and
television time.
Il am gratif1ed by these express
sions Of continued interest in what
I have to say, but I cannot make
precise plans for the future at
this time. Further, the Steven
son campaign headquarters in
Springfield and the Democratic
National Committee both have
substantial deficits which I feel
should be paid off before funds
are raised for any future activ-
tiles by me. This is my first con-

The Story Of Tironte and Special Torpedo
And of Rendezvous Trigger FoiIed to Keep

about four months after the Navy
had accepted it.
/ That night. we'll offshore,
spread out the charts for the
captain as we debated where rext
to carry our hunt. However, a
message on the submarine Fox ra-
dio intercept schedule brought a
change to our plans.
Trigger, which had completed
two unproductive patrols since
left her, and was currently on
her third. had been ordered to
join Tirante in co-ordinated patrol
in the East China Sea. On her
present patrol-on which she had
sunk two ships-she had a new
skipper, David Connole. whom
had known slightly when he was
a junior officer in the old Pom
pano before she was lost.
Trigger was due to rendezvous
with us that very night. We
should raise her by radio in a
few hours. I became rather ex-
cited at the prospect of seeing
my old home again.
Several times that night we
called Trigger by radio. but there
was no answer. AS morning drew
near we dashed for the coast. sub
merged in a likely looking spot,
and waited impatiently for dark
ness again. Then we moved off,
shore once more to call my old
ship. Trigger from Tirante.
Trigger from Tirante S 237

All night long the call went out.
Carefully we peaked our trans
mitter to the exact frequency;
gently we turned our receivers UP
and down the bank to pick up the
answer in case Trigger were a bit
off key. All during that long and
sleepless night we heard nothing.
The third night was a repetition
OF the second, except that spent
nearly the whole time in the radio
room. At irregular intervals Ed
Secard tapped out the unrequited
call. His face was inscrutable, his
manner natural and precise. But
Secard had made many patrols In
Trigger and when the time came
for him to be relieved, be waved
the man away. Fine beads of
sweat broke out on his forehead
and a spot of color burned on his
youthful cheekbones. but his right
hand steadily and precisely
pounded the coded call letters over
and over again:

Here's our chance to get rid

and I checked the camera.
Several observations later George

were all right. I ordered the
spread, but aimed them so that
all three ought to hit-one at the
bow, one under the stack and
one at the stern. The W.T. would
go at the stack.
"Fire!" I shouted. The fire
controlman pushed the firing key
and we felt the recoil as a sudden
jolt OF air squirted out the first

To West, London Told

pledged close United States CO.
operation with Britain and West

The informant said the assur-
ance was passed along to British

by Mr.. Dulles recently in New

acting some three weeks later,
rebuffed that cooperative ap-
proach. Its platform gave no
recognition whatever to the in
dispensable cooperation which
had been given in foreign pol
icy by the Republican 8Oth
Congress under the leadership
of Senator Vandenberg. Ad-
ministration leaders violently
abused that Congress. They
claimed for the Democrat Party
entire credit for the creation
of the United Nations, for the
Greek Turkey aid program, for
the Rio pact of the Americas
and for the Marshall plan. In
actual fact, every one of these
projects had been brought to
maturity only with the active
cooperation Of Republicans.
They made major contributions
and also voted overwhelmingly
to enact these projects into law.
This partisan treatment OF
foreign policy, this attempt to
claim all the credit for what was
a joint endeavor, deeply hurt
Senator Vandenberg and deeply
hurt the cause of bipartisan
ship.
Nevertheless, the Republican
platform of this year gives its
complete support and indorse-
ment to all of the foreign policy
measures which had been the
subject of bipartisan co-opera-
ton. It attacks and criticiZes
only where there has been no
such cooperation, as in relation
to the Middle East, Africa and
South America and China and
Korea.
The administration party, in
their convention this year, put
on a repeat performance. Again
it's spokesmen claimed the en-
tire credit for all the good re-
suits, where there had been
bipartisan cooperation. Where
there were bad results, as in
Korea, they attempt to shift
the blame onto Republicans.
OF course, some Republicans,
seeking to serve their country,
served under the Democrat adj
ministration. but they did not
take part in the critical moves
between June, 1949, and June.
1850, which invited the Korean
war.
I do not believe, and I know
Senator Vandenberg would not
have believed, that bipartisan
ship in foreign policy can sur
vive such partisan treatment.
Wherever there is genuine CO.
operation, then the credits and
the debts ought to be fairly
divided. It is not possible to
have continuing cooperation on
the administration basis Of
heads they win and tails the
Republicans lose. That is the
way bipartisanship works today.
