Heintzlenan and HendricksOn Are Hailed by Officials
By JIM HUTCHINSON

JUNEAU, R - Alaska legisla- tors and Gov Gruening hailed the recommendations of Secretary of Interior Mckay for governor and Secretary of Alaska Tuesday as excellent choices.
 Commenting on the selection of Regional Forester B. Frank Heint- zleman for governor and Juneau's mayor Waino Hendrickson for secretary, leaders in the legisla- ture said all Alaskans would now "close ranks" and work whole heartedly with them.
 Governor Gruening said: T am delighted that the administration has seen fit to name Alaskans to the offices of governor and sec retary, thus meeting, I am sure, the desires of the people of Alaska.
 Having known both Frank Heintzleman and Waino Hend- rickson for many years and hav- ing worked with them on many Alaskan problems, know them to be high-minded, conscientious and public spirited"
 Territorial Republican Chair man Elton Engstrom said:
 "It's a fine selection. I know everyone will get fully behind him now that the appointment has been made"
 House Speaker George Misco- vich, Flat Republican, comment ed: T think Secretary Mckay did the best as he saw fit. MT. Heintzleman was the least con- troversial figure. It's very good choice"
 Sen. James Nolan WrangelD: Probably no comment is neces- sary from Democrat, but I think both are wonderful choices"

Little Point In New Korean Truce Tries

UNITED NATIONS, N.Y., R- Chief US. delegate Henry Cabot Lodge, IT,, told the JUN. Political Committee today there was 'eittle point" in the new JUN. Korean truce tries so long as the Kremlin- backed Reds were determined to continue the war.

Senate Bill Entities Alaska Natives To
 Public Welfare Aid

JUNEAU, R - Bills to include natives of Alaska under the terri torial public welfare law and to repeal non-observed 40-year-old statute against the sale of liquor to Indians were among those in troduced in the legislature Tues day.
 Sens. Howard Lyng O-Nome) and Doris Barnes R WrangelD introduced the native welfare measure. Natives needing aid now are under the jurisdiction of the Alaska Native Service.
 Ted Duffield D Nome) intro duced House bill to repeal the old statute banning the sale of liquor to Indians.
 The Senate Labor Committee sponsored measure to liberalize the Workmen's compensation law. It provides that the employer of one person would come under the law. Only the employers of three or more persons are now affected.
 The bill would double the bene- fits in most cases. It proposes a 5000 payment to widow for the death of her husband as com pared to the present $4,50O.
 Sen. William Beltz O. Hay cocD introduced a fair employ ment practices act against dis elimination in employment. A similar measure has already been approved by the House.
 In connection with the bill for putting natives under Territorial Public Welfare, the measures sponsors said we feel the time has come for the territory to come of age and assume its full responsibilities. One of these is to include all it's citizens under this law. In our opinion, our new tax system is sufficient to bring our native peoples up to their proper stature of full citizens in their native land. This is one of the necessary steps on the way to statehood"

Mckay Recommends Heintzleman For Governor, Waino Hendrickson
 Of Juneau For Secretary of Alaska

WASHINGTON, R- Secretary of the Interior Mckay Tuesday recommended the appointment of B. Frank Heintzleman as govern or of Alaska and Waino Edwin Hendrickson as secretary of the territory.
 Heintzleman told newsmen that if his appointment is confirmed he will work for the industrial de- velopment of Alaska.
 ''I think Alaska is on the verge of large industrial development D he said. q think we want to do everything possible for industrial development So we can smooth the way for statehood at the ear Hest possible date"
 Heintzleman said that if he be- comes governor he will do all he can to promote the development of water power for industrial pur- poses. He said he wants to see aluminium plants in Alaska; also, the expansion of the pulp and paper industry and of the sawmill industry, the establishment of in dustries to use local materials and the development of an oil indus try.
 He said everything possible should be done to smooth the way for oil exploration and that it is essential that Indian claims to large areas be cleared up at once.
 Heintzleman, GA, has been as sociated with forest work in AL aska for 34 years, including the last 16 years as regional forester.
 Hendrickson is mayor of Juneau and a member of the House of Representatives from the First Division in the present legislative session.
 McKay's recommendations were made to President Eisenhower. If the President nominates the two men, the job of governor is sub ject to Senate confirmation, but the job of secretary is not.

Pension Increase And Narcotics Law Pass The Senate

JUNEAU, tR-The Senate yes terday afternoon passed bill to increase old age pensions to a maximum of $100 monthly from the present $80 and voted for life imprisonment for a third convic- ton of selling narcotics. Both measures now go to the House.
 The pension bill also eliminates all special restrictions for non citizens, providing they can qual- fly with the same residential re- quirements as citizens.
 John Butrovich finance com mittee chairman, estimated the new scale would not cost the territory over $1OO,0OO for each biennium.
 He said that fears that Alaska might become a haven for old folks and aliens" because of the pension law were unfounded. He said those fears were expressed when the pension was raised to $50 but actually 58 pension cases were shifted to stateside rolls in the biennium without any coming to Alaska.
 The narcotics bill provided one of the liveliest arguments of the Senate's first 30 days. As intro duced by Sen. Snider, it called for the death penalty on the fourth conviction of selling mar cotics.
 Percy Ipalook CR Kotzebue) failed in an attempt to amend the measure to provide for life inn prisonment for the fourth offense after several senators called mar cotics traffiking worse than mur- der.
 Paul Robison R = Anchorage) proposed an amendment to change the sentence to life i'm prisonment for the third offense, arguing that it would prevent any fourth offense and that hanging was unjustified for crime in the modern era.
 Senate president Charles Jones R-Nome) then left the chair to make an impassioned plea for the death penalty for narcotics traf- fikers he described as miserable, low creatures below words to de- scribe"

4-Minute Mile Getting Closer,
Sontee Agrees After 4:O2.4
BY ths Assoeio,ed Pres,

COMPTON, Calf, June g.
The phantom four-minute mile
may still be likened to the end
of a rainbow, but as young Yves
Santee of Kansas agreed today,
I'VE are getting closer"
The likeable 21-year-old Kan
san astonished the track world
last night when he stepped off
the mile in 1924 and sent ex-
pertS pouring through the rec
ord books.
They discovered that the time
was the fastest ever registered
in the United States, the fast
est ever run by an American,
and Santes may now be called
the fourth fastest miller in his
tory.
And the race itself, with Santee
defeating two of the worlds
greatest runners in Denis Jo-
hanson of Finland and CASTOR
Reiff of Belgium, was the fast
est three-man event in track
annals. Overlooked in the ap-
plauSe was the fact that Johans-
son was clocked at 4:04.0 and
Reiff at 4:05.7.
Didn't Expect Record.
Santee, highly elated over
breaking the great Gunder
Haegg's American mark of 4:O5.3,
set at Cambridge, Mass, in 1943,
said:
II came out to California to
win the race. But didn't ex-
pect to run it this fast. We fig
ured on about 4:04 or there
aboutS."
Then he added, cit was a
tough way to run a '4-2' mile"
He meant that Reiff and Jo-
hanson set a comparatively
slow pace for the first half mile,
and it was left for an impatient
Santee to steam up the race in
the final two laps.
He did, in fractional times of
1:O2.7, 2:05.2, 3:03.5 and 4:O2.4.
The race-staged under ideal
conditions on a cool but MINDLESS
evening-Was the feature of
Compton's annual invitational
track and field meet.
So impressive was Santee's
triumph that California track
writer's overlooked a native son
and his world record making
performance. This was Parry
O'Bfien of Southern California,
who put the shot SO feet 23s

Inierhigh Title Game
tuesday Will Match
Two Top Pitchers

The two outstanding pitchers
in District high schools will OPP
pose each other in the Inter-
high championship game at Grif-
fifth Stadium Tuesday. At least
that is what the Interhigh
coaches indicated by their vot-
ing for the All-High team.
Bill Wright of Roosevelt and
Dick Smallwood of Eastern re-
ceived unanimous Endorsement
from the coaches during the Sc
lection of the team to oppose
the prep squad in the second
annual All-High VS.. All-Prep
game June is.

this spring that the 21-year-old
giant had bettered Jim Fuchs

inches Last month, O'Brien hit
So feet "a inch.
Refuse Predictions.
The only faster times in the
mile, on record are Haegg's
world standard of 4:01.4; Arne
Andersson's 4:01.6, and John
Landy's 4:022. y
Santee and his coach, Bill
Easton, naturally are eyeing the
long four-minute mile,
but neither would predict any,
thing definite. 1--WE have more
work to do" Easton commented.
Santee is developing, however.
His 4:06.3 in the Big Seven meet
two weeks ago was just another
step forward. Santee'S high
school time was 4:26. AS a fresh
man at Kansas he hit AIT, and
as a sophomore. 4:08.
Santee's track career may be
interrupted shortly. He is due
to report for summer training
with the Marine Corps at Guam
tico Va, soon.
His coach doesn't expect any,
thing as good as last nights race
in the coming national collegiate
championships. For one thing,
the competition won't be as
formidable. Nor will conditions,
with a crowded field, be as good.
