NEW YORK (GlObaD - The
rhubarb to end all rhubarbs came
to an end last Sunday, and when
the smoke and dust had cleared
away, Carl Furillo, Dodger star
outfielder, came out of the fracas
with a swoolen wrist, broken
finger and multiple bruises and
sore spots. Leo Durocher? He
never laid a glove on him. Leo did
not get a scratch.
The amazing thing about it is
that nobody was fined or even
preached at for this worst of all
free-for-alls. We've seen players
talked at for days for less, and
we've heard of long suspensions
and heavy fines for harmless ges-
lures, or spur-of-the moment re-
marks. But this was real show
and fans were certain the penal
ties would be stiff. Instead, Ma
toinal Leegue President Warren
Giles said mildly, II doubt if any
thing will be done about it on the
basis of what / read. The competi-
ton between Brooklyn and New
York is very keen, and tempers
sometimes get hot From
here it looks like just a typical
ballplayer tussle."
Very understanding of him in
deed. Maybe he felt Furillo had
had enough punishment. Maybe so.
However, this writer personally
feels that somebody should have
wagged finger in the direction
of Leo Durocher. Everybody likes
to see a Manager with spirit-one
who will go down the line for his
boys. But Leo goes a little too
far. 1t would seem that the man.
aged ought to feel little respon-
sible for setting an example for
behavior, but if the players ever
started acting like Leo there
would be nothing but constant
wrangling on the field. Some COM
plants may be justified, but there
must be something wrong with a
manager who gets thrown out of
the game quite as often as Leo
does.
Speaking of Managers, Leo has
quite an understudy in Eddie Stan
ky "The Brat" seems to be doing
all he can to emulate his hero, and
the last time st. Louis played the
Dodgers, he turned in quite per-
formance in ribbing Jackie Robin
son about an injury to Jackie's
knee. Stanky bandaged his knee
with a towel, and linped around
the dugout, indicating that Rob-
bic was a "showboat." It was quite
a show, and while it was going
on, the Dodgers piled up some
thing like a dozen runs. Stanky
didn't do himself any good and
the Buns had the last laugh. Con-
clusion? Managers should stick to
being Managers.
This has been quite a season,
with records going by the boards
by the score. Campanella Of the
Dodgers came up with two the
other day-an all-time MI home
run record for catchers, with 38,
and an all-time RBI record for
catchers with 1876. Junior Gillian
hit a mark, too. He has now drawn
more walks than any Rookie in the
National League. Record previous

United
Nations
Notes
By JAMES r.. LAWSON
accredited UN Correspondent

NACCICuItCu O4N correspondent
UNITED NATIONS, NY: (Glo-
baD - The Assistant Secretary
General of the Arab League, All
med Shukairy, said last week in
Cairo, after the close of the Arab
League meeting, that Arab delega-
tions to the United Nations had
been ordered to raise the question
of Kenya in the General Assembly
as soon as possible. The Arab
countries in the United Nations are
Egypt, Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Saudi
Arabia and Yemen. In New York
the United African Nationalist
Movement announced that it would
confer with the entire Asian-Arab-
African Bloc at the United Ma
tions on Kenya, Morocco and Tu-
niSia.
Kenya is British colony in East
Africa, just south of Ethiopia that
has been plagued by an African
action group called "Mau Mau."
Presumably the Arab group would
want to discuss British repressive
measures taken to stop the drive
for independence and self-govern-
ment.
The Arab League pinned it's
hopes on the United Nations Cen
eral Assembly for airing criticism
of French administration in Mo-
rocco and Tunisia.
The League threatened to take
certain measures" unless UN
countries forced France to grant
to the MoroccanS and the TuniSi-
ans their legal aspirations. A for
NAL statement by the League, is
sued after a week-long study of
the problem by it's representatives
in Cairo did not disclose the nature
of the contemplated measures. ."
The statement said the League will
instruct all Arab governments
supported by the African-Asian
group of nations, to endeavor to
have the Moroccans' and Tunisi-
ans claims aired before the UN
Assembly"
KOREA :. While the UN
awaited word from Red China and
North Korea on their attitude to-
ward the concept of a Korean po-
litical conference as envisaged by
the UN, the American-led Korean
allies met in Washington Tuesday
to discuss further details of their
position. They decided the confer
ence ought to open on or about
October Is at Geneva, with San
Francisco or Honolulu as alternate
sites. There were reports that the
Communists might propose New
York. UN officials were opposed
to this since the Eighth General
Assembly would be running here
concurrently and the possibilities
of confusion and propaganda
sounding would be multiplied by
the proximity of meetings.
STAFF On Tuesday, the
Administration Tribunal = highest
UN appeals court-ruled on the
cases of twenty-one American UN
employees dismissed as result OF
Federal loyalty inquiries. 1t or
derer reinstatement of four with
back pay, payment of an estimated
S35O,000 in total indemnities to
seven who. rejected possible rein
statement, and upheld the dismis-
sal of nine others. One case was
referred back to a lower court
Secretary General Dag Hammar-
skiold announced the next day
that he would not rehire the four
and he asked the Tribunal to de-
termine the amount of indemnity
due them. Then, he said, in effect
that it would be up to the Gen
eral Assembly to approve ALLEGATION
of the indemnity money, not pres
emily provided for in the budget.

 THROUGH THE SENTINEL PERISCOPE

Nov with the spirit Of Christ mas and feeling a brotherly com passion for those politicians whom we frequently "rib" a bit the Per iscope this we-k has gone to an utterly reliable source for il infor- nation.
 We've been reading lfasten your safety beltsl the Sermon on the Mount. This is what il says:
 Pass no more judgments upon other people so that you may not have judgment passed upon you. For you will be judged by the standard you judge by and men will pay you back with the same measure you have used with them. Why do you keep locking at the SD elk in your brothers eye, and pay no attention to the beam in tuat which is in your own? How can you say to your brother, just let me get that speck out of your. eye. when all the time there is beam in your own? You hypoerite! First get the beam out of your own eye. and then you can sse to get theI speck out of your brothers eye
 So were discarding those notes stashed away somewhere, which probably would have made sort of interesting reading, and extending to all of you a brotherly love, Mer- ry Christmas.
 If We can get the beam out of our own eye by next week maybe we can dig up those notes again, They do sound intriguing
 This Edition
 In presenting this 1858 Christ mas edition, The Sentinel depicts in various illustrations Wrangeu as it appears today and the pro g. ess that has been made 'on the road back" since the disastrous fire of March 21-22, 1852, laid half of the business area in ashes with a property loss of $1,273,OOO.
 Buildings are sprouting up in the burned out area, slowly but surely. The new Elks building and the new Redmen concrete structure are. nearing completion. Bjorge Trans fer's steel building is erected. The city's new steel warehouse is up in a new location at Grants corner. hTe City Market has built 8 fine new store in a new location further south. Wrangell Electric & Supply, now Newman Supply, is re-estab lished across the street from it's old location where the fire started.
 Wrangell is well along on the way to rebuilding and expansion. New building is in prospect with Pacific Northern Timber Company's planned housing project and lum- b5r plant.
 Another year and The Sentinel expects to be able to present pie lures of substantial industrial de- yelopment in the area.
 Meanwhile, a glance at that first page picture will give you an excel lent idea of where things are go- ng to happen.
 With renewed enthusiasm and fine feeling of optimsm, We extend to all of you a Merry Christmas and Prosperous New Year.

Unlike the Fairbanks News-Min- CT which justifably boasted that it's recent 128-page progress edition was on a "Goss Straightline" news paper press, the most modern ma chine of it's type in the Territory of Alaska" this ssue of The WrangelI Sentinel in three colors was printed on our inimitable Country Camp bell newspaper press, vintage 1866, (the date is stamped right on the frame) the most reliable machine of it's type in Alaska. It's been turning out The Sentinel regularly once a week 10, these many years.
 The Sentinel was born in 1902, year before the original old Fair banks Miner saw the light of day in 1903, and later merged with the News.
 A few months ago when the An chorage News, one of the newest in the Alaska newspaper field, broke out with a red headlines rash we happened to lay copy of that paper on the feed board of the ven- erable old Campbell.
 That did it. It's been whining and grooming for some color besides black ever since so we poured on some red and green ink and the Campbell has been running mighty smooth ever since, as you will note from this Christmas edition of The Sentinel
 News-Miner also proudly states that it can get off it's daily run in 40 minutes on the new Goss; prob ably can, too, with its limited cir culation. Cant do that on our "straightliner." It takes a good solid hour and a half to get enough papers to cover our-world7wide cir culation on the Campbell. Of course, we have to lean a little on the belt to reach that phenomenal speed.
 Merry Christmas from the match less old Country Campbell.

HOUSES WILL HAVE HOMEGROWN ROSE
 ON CHRISTMAS TABLE

MT. and Mrs. Donald House are going to have a pink rose on their Christmas table. Prob ably other folks will, too, but the unusual part is that is a homegrown rose.
 When the Houses took up their rose bushes this fall and put them in the basement, Mr. House, instead of putting the
 basement door back on, put
 piece of plastic over the opening. Sun, and Wrangell's unusually mild weather have brought the rose into blossom.
 MT. and Mrs. House, the J. M. Steears and the George Stump tions, have Douglas fir Christ mas trees this year. They were shipped up by an uncle of MT. House who grows them for the market. House added that next year, if others are inter ested, he could arrange for a larger order.
