Egypt Gets
Her Demands

WASHINGTON (JTA) =
The S t a tie Department con-
firmed reports that shipment
of surplus w h e a to Egypt
had been carried out under an
arrangement which permit
ed the Egyptians to use their
blacklist of ships which trad
ed with Israel. A department
spokesman explained" t h a t
the u. S. had no control over
the selection of ships, except
for the requirement that SO
percent of surplus commod-
tiles must be shipped aboard
American vessels.

promised Israel "synpathetic

If the answer is to be mo-"

to have the benefit of such

of the confusing and contra

Israel circles emphasize that
they are not seeking armed
parity with the Arabs but only
request that specified minim-

The Nation says editorially:
Dulles has shelved IsraePs
three-month-old request for
some $50 million worth of

Middle East policies failed in

war between I S a e and the

In a long and inconclusive

Lloyd, the Foreign Secretary,
who soon leaves on a visit to
the Arab S ia tie s and Israel,
again rejected demands that
he seek to enlist cooperation
of the Soviet Union in halting

"Our biggest loss will be An

nual party for the Redskins
coaches and officials last Decem-
Der and has quite an interest
in the club. This brings up an
other matter.
In throwing in with Murphy,
Wismer apparently has put the
former Georgetown lineman in a
position to wind up owning not
only a big share Of the baseball
team but of the Redskins as
well. There is a well-rooted
bunch in some quarters that
Gabe eventually will wind up as
owner of the ball club, and he
conceiyably could get control of
the Redskins-if he entertained
such ambitions.
In buying his Redskins stock,
Wismer signed an agreement
with Marshall to give George
prior right to buy it back if
Harry decided to sell. BY the
same token, Wismer has first
call on Marshall's stock if
George ever decides to sell. It
sounds far-fetched, almost FAM
taStiL, to think that this could
happen, but it could. And it's
Just possible that Murphy, the
fellow who once played guard
for Georgetown. would own both
of Washington's two major
sports attractions.
Who said football linemen are
dumb?
-
The little fellow climbing
board q MATS plane at the air.
port tomorrow at II am. will be
Eddie LaFond, director Of ath-
letics and boxing coach at Cath
Ole University. Along with Joe
Bunsa, former LaFoLd pupil
and now athletic director Ut the
National Training School for
Boys, and Herb Kroeten, West
Point boxing coach; Eddie will
be bound for Hawaii and Japan
and another series of boxing
clincs for the armed forces.
The group will be gone %
days. It's no new experience for
Eddie, and, judging by past ex-
periences. the clinic will pack
'em in, both in Japan and Ha-
wall. They not only teach coaches
how to coach and referees how
to off1ciate, but they help en-
terrain servicemen with their
yarns and anecdotes that sports
hungry men love to hear.
LaFond hasn't seen one yet,
but he has a feeling that the
military sports program, which
is well planned and conducted,
will turn out a heavyweight pros
pect who might follow in Gene
Tunney's footsteps from the
ranks to the heavyweight cham
pionship of the world.
Happy landings. Ed, Joe and
