Plan Defeated For
 Federal Bossing of Oil Beyond 5 Miles

WASHINGTON, R- The Sen- ate defeated Thursday what Sen. Taft called a "half-baked propos- ition" for federal administration of the submerged continental shelf beyond the three-mile limit.
 Action came on rejection of an amendment by Sen. Monroney O-Okl0 to a bill to establish state title to potentially oil-rich submerged offshore lands within their historical boundaries. The roll call vote was 59 to g.
 These boundaries are claimed to extend out 1912 miles into the Gulf of Mexico in the case of Texas and the west coast of Flor ida. Thus Monroney's proposal would have denied these two states seven and one-half miles of what they claim.
 The amendment provided that federal revenues from oil and gas development in the area outside the three-mile zone would be de- voted to retirement of the $26412 billion public debt.
 The vote marked the defeat of the third amendment to be offered by the band of senators fighting the state ownership bill. Several more amendments remain to be disposed of before the final vote on the measure next Tuesday.

WARSAW, NY, R - Reuben Pfeifer says one of his hens is turning into a rooster.
 Look ak that thing" he told a reporter. Last year it was a mother and now it's bustling around just like any young roost- CT.
 Pfeifer said the first inkling he got was when the Rhode Island Red last year suddenly started laying soft shelled eggs that grad ually became smaller. Then they stopped.
 Now it has grown a rooster's comb and tries to crow.
 "It's not much of a crow" Pfeifer admitted. But she-but he is trying hard. Maybe he'll get better with practice"
