first dual meet Of the season, 90-31,

seconds slower than that turned in
by the host school. Elvan Sloan took
the other first as he captured the
high jump with leap Of 5 feet, 8
inches.
Bluffton finished second in four
events during the afternoon. Earl
Campbell bettered 38 feet in the shot
put, Laverne Schirch covered the 220-
yard low. hurdles in 26.5, Don Gundy
ran the 440-yard dash in SO seconds
and Walter Shelley followed the win
ner home in the mile run.
Other Beavers scoring points in
their events were Reldon Schirch who
finished third in the 120 high hurdles
and Nussbaum, third in the half-mile
run.
The Beavers meet Ashland and De-
fiance in a triangular meet at 2 p. m.
Saturday at the college field. Nothing

Western Buckeye League contest Of
the season.
Celina was paced by the hitting of
McGough, who in addition to a 32O-
foot home run, had two doubles. They
combined seven hits with four walks
to break into the scoring column in
the fourth. King had permitted them
but two scratch singles to that time.
After a scoreless fifth inning, the
Bulldogs came back with 10 more tai
lies in their half of the sixth on four
hits and six free tickets to first base.
They outhit the Pirates Ia to seven.
Bluffton took an early lead in the
contest getting one run in the first
inning and coming back with three
more in the second. Two Of these
runs scampered across on a bases
loaded double by Ray Cummins. They
appeared to be on their way to their
first win of the campaign when the
roof fell in on them in the next in
ming.
Pete Steiner, pitcher and second
baseman, and Bruce Triplett, regular
shortstop, did not make the trip to
Celina because of disciplinary action
taken by Coach Joe Harris. Steiner
was to have started the contest on the
mound.
Don Alspach with walk and two
singles in four trips and King with
two singles paced the Pirates seven
hit attack off Celina's Gray. jim
Fisher and Ronnie Geiser collected the
other safeties.

Farm Program

Disagreement among Democrats
on the Senate Agriculture Commit
tee saved President Eisenhower's
farm program last week, and it
looked as if the rescue would be
good for the rest Of this year.
The immediate issue was consider
alton of the House passed rigid price
support BILL 1t would supplant tile
administrators flexible support law.
Democratic Senator Hubert H.
Humphrey of Minnesota moved that
the committee complete short,
snappy study of the bill and send
it to the Senate by June is. That
would leave plenty of time for debate
and passage of the measure before
midsummer adjournment.
But Chairman Allen j. Ellender
was convinced the Democrats could
not muster enough votes to pass
the bill and also override veto
this year. He wanted to delay action
until 1856. Senator Clinton P. An
derson, Democrat, of New Mexico,
moved to hold extended hearings.
In effect that would bar any attempt
at final passage of the measure this
year.
The Anderson motion won, 8 to Z.
If one Senator changes his mind,
Senator Humphrey still may have
his way. But Chairman Ellender is
planning to open hearings on the
bill in about two weeks and make a
thorough study of the whole farm
problem.

Postal Pay Bill Veto
Irks Democrats; 7.6%
Ruise Seems Likely

President Eisenhower's last veto
of 1854 killed a 5 per cent pay in
crease for postal workers. His first
veto of 1855 killed an 8.8 per cent
pay boost for the same group.
Lest Post Office employees think
he was in rut, however, the Presi-
dent said in last weeks veto mes
sage that he would sign a less
expensive, more equitable pay in
crease. Less expensive meant about
7.6 per cent and, possibly, an in
crease in postal rates. More equita-
BILE meant adjustment of grades and
jobs within the postal hierarchy.
Democrats and postal lobbyists
complained bitterly. Senate Post
Office Committee Chairman Olin D.
Johnston called the Presidents ac-
ton shameful" and asked if he
thought he could tell Congress what
to do. A spokesman for the Feder-
alton of Post Office Clerks said the
veto was "travesty of justice"
The next steps we're up to Con-
gress. Two actions were planned.
Senate Democrats planned to try
Tuesday to override the veto. A
two-thirds vote will be needed. If
the Republicans back their Presi-
dent as well as expected, the vote
will fall short.
Then Republicans will offer a 7.6
per cent bill. They predict success
on this measure.

it was Puerto Rico.
It all revolved around shenani-
gans in military clothing contracts.
We've discovered a nest of small
grafters," Chairman John Mcclellan
said, land we intend to expose those
guilty of improper conduct, includ-
ing the taking of bribes."
Highlight of the weeks testimony
came when Joseph Porreca, former
supervisor of inspectors for the New
York Quartermaster Procurement
Agency-now out of the Govern
ment-said he had received a
freezer, meat to go in it, and some
fllmy underthings for his wife from
firm his men were supposed to be
inspecting-the Bonita Originals
company, suppliers of Army and
Navy caps. He said the favors had
nothing to do with his work.
Another inspector, Jerome Schles-
niger, said he had received a free
trip to Puerto Rico and $3.50 expense
money from Bonita.
Connoisseurs of Government graft
noted that the deepfreeze was given
out few weeks before the Demo-
Gratis left the White House. The
trip to Puerto Rico occurred under

for the House last week. Repre-
sentatives could neither accept nor
reject the bill. It was left in a state
of suspended animation, resting on
the Speakers desk.
The trouble was threefold. One
faction thought the bill was not
strong enough-it would permit too
many young men to escape training.
Another faction thought it went too
far, that it approached universal
military training. The third group
wanted to patch the bill here and
5here.
Dewey Short, ranking Republican
on the Armed Services Committee,
said the bill was foot in the
door" for UNIT. He led the attack
against the measure. Committee
Chairman Carl VinSon said the
measure was a minimum essential.
ct would raise a 2.9-million man
trained reserve by 1860, permit some
youngsters to volunteer for six
month training period, draft some
more, leave others untouched. All

reServes0
Anti Segregation Move
The picture was complicated by
two amendments. Adam Clayton
Powell, Democrat, of New York, a
Negro, wanted to specify that no
man need serve against his wishes
in racially segregated unit. Some
Southern National Guard and re-
serve units are segregated.
Then Frank T. Bow, Republican.
of Ohio offered an amendment to
bar use of reserve troops in coun-
tries where American servicemen
are subject to local criminal law.
The restriction would apply to many
American allies.
Congressman seriously favoring
the amendments and many of those
merely against the original bill
joined to vote tentative approval
of the amendments.
It seemed obvious to Mr.. Vinson
that the bill would not pass with
the amendments included. so he
moved to suspend action. On 1911
to-124 vote the bill was laid aside
until some unspecified future date.
The program may be dead for the
year unless the Senate acts on its
version of the reserve measure.
