handle them. Within six days after
his heart attack he had begun to
sign some official papers requir-
ing his name.
Hagerty said Mrs. Eisenhower
awake since shortly after mid
night Friday morning, when she
summoned medical help for the
Presidents stomach upset and
headache"-had gone to sleep at
about 5:45 am. Saturday after

Milton Eisenhower, and the Presi-
dents son, Maj. John Eisenhower,
also remained in the presidential
unit in the Army hospital all night.
Mrs. Eisenhower "stood UP won
derfully" during the tense hours,'
Hagerty said
Talking to reporters earlier,
Hagerty quoted the Presidents at
tending physicians as saying ''his
spirits are good and his morale is
- j..
high" He said the President was
conscious of pain" and that the
doctors expect this will be so for
"the next several days."
Hagerty told reporters then that
Eisenhower had awakened three

Southeastern Russians
Have Way to Catch
Tigers With Bare Hands

LONDON, R-Moscow radio said
Saturday tiger hunters in Russia's
far eastern. regions catch them
with their bare hands.
"That's the honest to goodness
TRUTH said a broadcaster in
English.
The broadcaster said Comrade
Pistoyev, president of a geograph-
ical society in Khabarovsk, had
caught two tigers in 1889 with his
bare hands.
The most popular drink in the
chilly far eastern regions of Kha-
bcrovsk is a fiery CONGO ton
called "spereet." It's about twice
as strong as vodka, Russia's ma
tional firewater, and has been
known to cause it's consumers to
see tigers, elephants and sea SER

Eisenhower in Good Spirits and With Morale High
After 2Hr 53Min lleitis Operation Saturday Morning
BY MARVIN ARRoWsMIrH


WASHINGTON, R-Presiden,
Eisenhower is recovering "most
satisfactorily from his emergency
abdominal operation, and White
House Press Secretary James Hag-
erty said he expects no Interrupt
ton in the duties of the presi-
dency.
The 65-year-old President went
under emergency survery at 2:59
am. Saturday
The four-man team of sur
geons finished the operation one
hour and SO minutes later.
At about 1890 Saturday morn
ing Hagerty reported that the
Presidents spirits were good and
his morale was high"
The Presidents doctors re-
moved what they called a non
generous Intestinal obstruction
that was "due to ileitis."
All reports have emphasized the
Presidents heart is not involved
in the. new illness. This has been
significant in view of the coronary
thromposis which Eisenhower suf-
fered last Sept. "a.
Each report on the Presidents
startling and sudden illness was
watched closely for clues to his
political future Whether he might
change his mind about seeking a
second term remained to be seen.
Eisenhower has insisted up to
now that he feels able to serve.
He has promised to let the nation
know instantly" if there was a
change in his belief.
Hagerty said there is no change
in plans Eat this point for the
President to attend the Confer
ence of American Presidents at
Panama City on June rs or his
meeting with Prime Minister Neh-
ru of India on July Z.
But the firing secretary replied
81 don't know" when asked if
there would be any change in
plans for the Presidents sched-
uled meeting with Chancellor
Konrad Adenauer of Germany
next Wednesday.
Asked whether any plans have
been made to turn the Presidents
work load over to other officials,
Hagerty said the next bills from
Congress which will require his
action do not fall due until mid
night, June IS.
A reporter persisted: Did this
mean there would be no Interrupt
ton in the official duties of the
presidency?
II don't anticipate any"
That would be in line with the
way business was handled last fall
while Eisenhower was hospital
lied after his heart attack.

tial Assistant Sherman Adams

schools of Dade County.
The Judge stated that he want
ed a clear issue in the suit, but
gave the plaintiffs ten days to file
an amended complaint. The judge
further explained that the Fed
eral Court has the authority to
inquire as to whether desegrega-
ton is being accomplished in a
proper and orderly manner.
Atty. C. E. Graves, represent
ing the plaintiffs promised that
an amended complaint would be
filed within the specified time.
Atty. Edward F. Boardman,
representing the defendants - in
this case the Dade County School
Board and Supt. w. r. Thomas
pointed out that no Negroes had
ever applied for admission to
white schools in Dade County and
been denied :.
The fact that the suit was filed
without a test case of any kind
having been first established, has
provoked a considerable amount
of discussion in and around this
community. The plaintiffs are be-
ing severely criticized in certain
circles for doing what some people
say amounts to putting the cart
before the horse" Others are say
ing that the action was too nasty
to accomplish any significant
good; and still others are claim
ing that the plaintiffs were not
properly organized for such "a far
reaching action.
Whatever the reason for not do
ing so, it will have to be admitted
by even the most optimistic that
Judge Choate had no choice but
to dismiss the case on the grounds
on which he cited.
The action as a whole is one
that should command the atten-
ton of the entire community. The
support of the community should
be solicited and gained in this
most important matter, because
its final results will affect the
community as whole.
1t is to be hoped that before the
amended complaint is filed more
of the better thinkers of Dade
would be given an opportunity to
help and advise in the matter. 1t
is also hoped that when filled the
complaint will be based upon a
solid case, fully tested and ex-
plored that will stand up in any
court: The opportunities are here,
for the plaintiffs to use. Why not
use them?
