atom bomb design planes are
among those aboard the carriers
Hornet and Philippine Sea.
Mr.. Wilson definitely identified
the Chinese planes involved in
the Sunday incident as LA-7s.
The low-wing, Single-Seat fight
ers are believed to be slightly
faster than the Skyraiders-in
the 370-mile-an-hour class. Like
the Skyraiders, there have been
several different types in the LA
series of which Number z was one
of the first. It's designer, Sefnyon
A. Lavochkin, was awarded a
stain Prize" and 10000 rubles
by the Soviet government in
1945 for the LAT. BY the end
of World War II, the LAT was
in service in greater numbers
than any other Russian type, ex-
cept the Yak-3.
The Red craft are built Of ply
wood and birch and have a fabric
covering over a metal frame.
They carry three cannon-two
20-millimeters above the engine
and "a 37-millimeter below It..
They have 1000 horsepower en-
gines.
The Skyraider is a single seat,
all-metal, propeller driven at
tack monoplane. 1t was the third
design conceived by Douglas
to replace the wartime SID dive
bomberS. It has two 20-milli-
meter cannons, one in each ex-
tremity of the center section of
the folding wings. Itfalso carries
launchers for IL rockets under
it's wings.
The wing span Is slightly over
so feet. 1t has a service ceiling
of $4,000 feet and a rate of climb
of 1000 feet a minute. The
range is more than $500 miles.

Republicans accepted. were:

of Tennessee, to prevent the
Atomic Energy Commission from
paying Federal income taxes as
part Of the compensation in
contracts with private power
companies. This was one of the
issues in the controversial Dixon
Yates contract to develop pri-.

Valley area.
q. The amendment Of Senator
Kerr, Democrat, Of Oklahoma.
to give the Acc 10 years instead
of five years In which to retain
patents growing out of the
development of atomic energy
for commercial purposes. The
Acc would be authorized to issue
licenses on an equal treatment
basis during that period.
8. An amendment by Senator
Anderson, to authorize explora-
tions for uranium in national
parks when the President de-
clares it is in the national in
tereSt.
Two Proposals Beaten.
The Senate also adopted three
amendments by Senator Hum

But the opponents lost two other
major proposals.
One by Senator Stennis. DEM

sidetrack all sections dealing
with domestic development of
atomic power for commercial
purposes and pass only the pro-
visions for international Coop

British Press Hopes
Peiping's Apology
viii Cut tension
By the A..osIe.sd Pres.

/. LONDON, July 27.-British
Newspapers generally expressed
hope today that Red China's
apology for shooting down q
British airliner foreShadows
new era in relations between
Peiping and the West. But
several adopted "show us at
titude toward the Red overture.
At the same time most edi-
torial writer's voiced strong
backing for the United States
Navy flyers who shot down
two Communist fighters which
attacked them during the sur
vivor search of Hainan Island
yesterday.
The press reaction was
summed up by the liberal. mid
die Of the road News Chronicle:
The Chinese apology for
shooting down the British civil
aircraft and their offer to con-
slider compensation has been
prompt and proper. They should
both be accepted.
THE encounter where the
American rescue planes were
forced to shoot down the Com
munist fighters was most re-
grettable. The Americans were
quite right to defend them
selves and we are glad they were
successful.
Stump's Remark Deplored.
The News Chronicle was not
happy. however. about the state
ment in Washington yesterday
by Admiral Felix B. Stump,
United States Pacific Fleet COM
inander. that his pilots had been
ordered to be "quick on the trig-
ger" il attacked. The paper
termed this disturbing" and
commented: "This kind Of order
courts trouble"
The Daily Sketch. follower Of
Sir Winston's own Conservative
Party. displayed no such misgiv-
ings. 1t wrote:
Red China can have no gem
uine complaint that the Ameri-
cans hit back. She brought it
on herself. II she wants the
world to believe in her professed
desire for peace. let her put her
guns away, and keep her trigger

Incidents Caused by Reds.
F4..n the Laborite side of the

similarly:
Every incident which might
have spanked of a third World
War has so far been caused by
the Communist powers. Molotov
says he believes in co-existence.

The Conservative Daily Tele-
graph said the Chinese apology
showed some trace of the old
fashioned civilities of interna-
tional intercourse" The STele-
graph cautioned: "If the Com
rlunists think they can exploit
the two incidents to play off

SafcheI Paige TO Pitch
Here for GIobetrotters

Leroy (SatcheD Paige. the age
less Negro pitcher, will be the
feature attraction Friday night
when he pitches for the Harlem
Globetrotters against the House
of David at Griffith Stadium.
The Globetrotters are a newly
organized transforming team
owned by Abe Saperstein, who
also owns the famous basketball
team of the same name.
A wonder with Negro teams for
years, Paige came up to the ma
'jor leagues a little too late to
realize his true big-time poten-
tial. He pitched for Cleveland
in 1948 and 1949. compiling 6-1
and Al records, dropped out of
big-league ball for a year and
came back to put in three years
with the st. Louis Browns. His
five-year major league record
is % wins and 81 losses.
Almost as much has been writ
ten about Satch's age as his
pitching proves. It was a pop
ular guessing game when he first
broke into the majors. His birth
day is listed as July 7, 1906, but
there are those who claim he is
much older.

Of assistants last year that were
not of his choosing.
When Virginia made its fine
defensive record in 1882. Calling
was a star linebacker and Eddie

was hurt most of last season,

along with Henry Strefnpek, de-

Bailey Potentially Good,
The Cavaliers figure to give

some protection this year. Only
a junior. Bailey is potentially
good passer but last year he
worked under considerable strain,
knowing he was going to get
smeared most of the time. AS
an example he ended the season
with minus rushing yardage.
Another returnee is Bill Bonney,

Fannon, now u 195-pounder

guard : there's John Polzer, a
rough. hungry football player.

Mcdonald Is looking forward
to being able to substitute this

field. He has done some shifting,
like moving Jim Elekes, full

Sampson Is Converted.
The coach thinks Sampson, an

will take over the fullback duties
when he gets into condition,
Each is about 5-feet-S, with
