Davis Predicts
Action on Span
Constitution Avenue
Bridge Is Favored

By GEORGE BEVERIDGE

Representative Davis, Demo-
crat of Georgia, said yesterday
he favors a new Potomac River
crossing near Constitution ave-
nue., and predicted early action
BY the House District subcom-
mttee he heads.
The Congressman made the
statement as he called a hear
ing for 10 am. Wednesday to
resume testimony on whether
Congress should Cd shift the 10
cation Of a six-lane bridge Con-

CD scrap the bridge plans and
substitute a four-lane under

Tunnel advocates-led by Fed

sion officials who object to an
other bridge in the monumental
Lincoln Memorial area - will
head the witness list Wednesday
District officials made their case
for a six-lane bridge at hear
ings earlier.
Draw Span a Factor
Complaints also are expected
Wednesday against District plans
to design the low-level bridge
without a draw span. At least
two business firms, with plants
in the Georgetown harbor, are
expected to oppose on grounds
that their shipping activities re-
quire a draw span.
But the major effort will be to
kill the bridge authorization, and
substitute a tunnel.

Senators Mundt of South Da-
kota and Jenner of Indiana.
They spoke in the light of the
successful operation on Presi-
dent Eisenhower at Walter Reed
Hospital.
Chairman Hall, reached at his
home in Oyster Bay, NY by
telephone, said there is no change
in the plans of the G. O.P. or
ganization.
That" he said, means no
change in the national ticket"
He expressed qualification over
the Presidents condition.
Those who expect the Presi-
dent to run point out there was
no heart involvement in the
Presidents illness and he was
able to stand the operation for
ileitis very well. They were but
tresSed in their statements by
Maj. Gen. Leonard D. Heaton,
commandment of Walter Reed
Army Hospital. who conducted
the pre-dawn operation on the
President. When asked whether
he believed there was any reason
why Mr.. Eisenhower should not
run for reelection. he replied:
Il certainly do not"
Optimism High
While some Democrats, in
GLIDING Senator Anderson of
New Mexico, voiced a belief the
President would decide not to
run. Republican optimism ran
high last night.
Postmaster General Summer
field, who was Republican Ma
tional Chairman during the 1852
presidential campaign. said:
MY first concern is for the
Presidents early recovery. If he
makes satisfactory recovery, as
reports indicate he will, his pres
ent illness should not deter him
from running for reelection. On
the contrary. it should encourage
him to run. The fact that he was
able to stand successfully a
major operation dispels any con-
Germ over his heart condition
His recovery from his heart at
tack apparently has been en-
tirely successful"
The final decision. Of course

BUENOS AIRES, Sun d a y
June 10 (R.-Rebels struck in
Buenos Aires, La Plata and
Santa Rosa last night, but the
government said today "the sit
uation is completely dominated.
"a clandestine radio heard
in Montevideo said the rebels
also occupied military barracks
in Rosario, Argentina's second
largest city. The broadcast
said armed forces Of Argen-
tina led by popular groups"
launched the uprising. 1t. Col.
Anibal Cesar Lopez was ,iden-
titled as the leader.0
The government proclaimed
martial law throughout Argen-
tina and sent army, navy and
air force units against the re-
bells.
The rebels were described as a
mixture of soldiers and civilians
Some were believed to be follow
ers of Juan D. Peron, ousted as
president last September. Pero-
nistas were rounded up in Buenos
Aires.
Arsenal Reported Recaptured
Noncommissioned officers and
civilians seized the army arsenal
in downtown Buenos Aires, but
the government said it was re-
captured.
Government forces also re-
ported they had recaptured key
centers in Santa Rosa, where the
rebels seized control Of Govern
ment House, police headquarters
and the state radio.
The revolt caught President
Pedro Aramburu away from the
capital in the interior. Vice Pres
ident Isaac Rojas. popular naval
hero of the revolt against Gen.
Peron, took charge here in his
absence.
"At II pm. Saturday. military
uprising occurred in some mill
tary units of the Province of
BuenoS Aires" sal da commu-
nique.
Immediately the army, the
navy and the air force, assisted
by the national gendarmes and
the federal police, began opera
tons to wipe out the intended
rebellion.
Martial Law Decreed
Martial law has been decreed
in all the territory of the repub-
lie. The population is urged to
be calm and confident in the

ton"
The state radio beamed bulle.
tins to the nation saying COM
plete calm reigned in Rosario
Santa Fe and Salta.
The commander of the SO
army division said the only trou-
BILE in Rosario came when q
group Of armed civilians took
over one Of the radio stations
and beamed false reports of ar
army uprising.
There were only two foca
points Of trouble in Buepos Aires
the arsenal and at the Automo.
bile Club. where a man trying Il
throw bomb was reported killed
by police. The rest of Bueno.
Aires appeared to be calm.
Elections Called For
Radio listeners heard a proc.
lamation over the Santa Ross
radio saying: I'VE want election,
in 1870 days, freedom for politica
prisoners, and a return of Labor
unions to authentic workers"
The broadcast said the rebel,
also demanded "reestablishment
of balance in pricesand wages.
President Aramburu has beer

herited the economic chaos left
by the Peron regime.

Junior Class Dance
The Junior Glass held their an
nual Christmas dance on Friday,
December IA, in the High School
auditorium.
The auditorium was beautifully
decorated by members of the class.
A large Christmas tree was set up
on the stage and silver stars hung
from the ceiling. Blue spotlights
shone on the tree and accented the
blue angel hair and lights.
Music was provided by the High
School Dance Band under the di-
rection of Mr.. Paul Teare and by

Basketball
The Varsity and Junior Varsity
basketball teams are practicing
daily in preparation for their open
ing game that will pit the Bucs
against Smyrna at Smyrna, on
Wednesday, January 2.
Last year Smyrna handed Milford
one of it's three losses of the sea-
son on the Smyrna Court. Coach
Jones anticipates a very tough
battle and it will give him an idea
of how his team will bear up
under competition. The Faculty and
student body extend best wishes
for a successful season.
Junior High Basketball
Milford High will not field a Jr.
High basketball team this year as
it is very difficult to schedule
games. 1t is felt that a good intra-
mural program will give many more
boys an opportunity to participate
and develop their basketball tai
ents.
Beginning January 2, Sth grade
boys will meet every Tuesday and
Friday from .3;15 to 4:45 p. m.
The first two weeks vii be devoted
to drills on fundamentals.
Teams will be formed and two
games will be played every Tues
day and Friday. The new gymna-
SUM will be used; two teams using
the girls gym and two the boys
