were unhappy over the transfer
of the White House lanes to the
old State, War and Navy Build
ing. Many were proud Of the
recognition given their sport
when the lanes were installed in
the Executive Mansion under the
regime of President Truman.
In connection with the White
House bowling plant. we retain
a mental picture of Gen. Omar
Bradley functioning as an order
ly for an Army private. The pri-
vate, a paraplegic, was the win
ner of trophies in the annual
tournament sponsored by the
Bowlers' Victory Legion for Vet
erans' Administration patients.
The paraplegics demonstrated
for Mr.. Truman how they
bowled, and remarkably well,
from wheelchairs.
When the group left the bowl
ing plant, there was Gen. Brad
ley, his rugged face aglow with
admiration. propelling one of
the patients, plainly unaware
that anybody noticed.
It was a memorable day, in
deed, for the private, to have
received a trophy from the
hands of a President of the
United States and been wheeled
about by one Of the Nations
most illustrious military leaders.

BOWLING
WITH ROD THOMAS

A perfect "duckpin" game re-
ported recently from the Pitts
burgh area seems to have caused
some confusion, judging from
inquiries. 1t was rolled against
rubber-banded pins. The record
for atwood duckpins is 239.
Scores Of 300 are quite rare in
rubber-banded pins. Up to this
season only an even dozen had
been recorded in regulation play
Countless 300s have been rolled
in tenpins. The 14th in the So
year history Of the American
Bowling Congress tournament
was registered March %, by
Myron Erickson of Racine, Wis.
None has been rolled in the
Washington area, but last night
at Rosslyn a tenpinner with a
$50 average and unorthodox de-
livery came within one frame of
turning the trick.
Kenneth Harris from Glen
Ravin, N. c., rolling in the Naval
Operations League, marked up
nine straight strikes. In the 10th
box he drew a three-pin split
Is, z and 81, and finished with
a score of 1853.
Harris rolls a straight ball

from the left side Of the lane.
Most of his hits were in the left
pocket.
The big game was astonishing
in view of Harris others last
night. In the first he rolled 1873;
in the second. 1855. for a series
of ssh.
Another Rosslyn tenpinner,
Bob Wheelan of the Arlington
Hall League, got a thrill by roll
ing 200. Virtually novice in
the sport, he averages 1913. It
was his first 200.

Group Favors
1.-Two Atom Ships
By the Associated Press

Construction of two atomic
powered merchant vessels-one
for commercial use and the
peace ship" conceived by Presi-
dent Eisenhower-haS received
preliminary approval in Con-
gress.
The House Merchant Marine
Committee voted yesterday to
authorize an immediate start on
both ships after hearing that the
administration wanted the COM
mercial type delayed.
Louis S. Rothschild, Undersec-
retary of Commerce for Trans
portation, TESTIFIED administra-
ton officials felt "the first appli-
cation of power to commercial
vessels deserves to have a little
more consideration than it pre-
viously had"
Chairman Bonner, Democrat
Evening star., 1955-06-08

of North Carolina, said his COM
mittee nonetheless voted unan-
imously to combine the two prof.
ects in one measure. Mr.. Bonner
raped the administration on two
scores.
He said some of its spokesmen
at first "ssrUng1y Endorsed" his
proposal for a second ship but
have since changed their posi-
ton He described the vessel
recommended by Mr.. Eisenhower
as merely a carnival ship"

Mr.. Bonner also told newsmen
the committee felt ''bypassed"
by requests to other congressional
units for money to carry out the
Presidents plan. 1--WE want the
prerogatives of the committee
recognized" he said.
Committee officials estimated
the peace ship" would cost $35
million. The administration has
asked s12, $4,000 to get it under
way.

U. S. Delegation Splits
On Red Issue at ILO

Mr.. Delaney said a charge by
Mr.. McGrath that the United
States Government has evi-
denced fear of the Communists
is ridiculous and unfounded. The
United States position is identical
with last years stand and is
designed to prevent the seating
of these so-called employer rep
resentatives as full members,
he said.
1.-THE charge that the United
States worker delegate abstained
because he did not wish to vote
against the United States Gov
ernment's position is preposter-
ous," Mr.. Delaney said. ITO have
voted otherwise would have
played into the hands of the
Russian proposal"

Explains AbstentiOn

Mr.. McGrath said the United
States labor delegate, George P.
Delaney of the American Fedora
tion of Labor, .abstained in the
vote to give deputy membership
on committees to Communist
employer delegates because he
did not wish to vote contrary
to government"
The vote to seat Communist
employer delegates on four COM
mittees last week was 92-49,
with 66 abstentions. All non
Communist employer delegates
opposed the action.
Mr.. McGrath, in his report
to the Chamber Of Commerce,
said seating Communists in en-
ployer groups where employer
policy was discussed sis as pre-
posterous as would be the seat
ing of Communist agents on the
Board of Directors Of the NAM
and the United States Chamber
of Commerce. And yet our Gov
ernment votes for it.
1.-THE rug was pulled from be-
meath the United States en-
ployers who had assumed that
our Government would have the
courage to stand for principles
instead of resorting to the ex-
pediency of appeasement."
Mr.. Delaney snapped back in
q statement last night that Mr..
McGrath "is becoming as pro-
ficient at the big lie technique
as the spokesmen for the Com
munist bloc in the ILO." He
called Mr.. McGrath THE big
gest asset the Russians have at
the conference"
