Every few years big-boat rae
ing fans here start talking out
loud about Washington having
its own unlimited hydroplane for
racing in the Presidents Cup
and other major events. Well.
it's started again, and the reason
is obvious.
1t was triggered by the news
received here by Cup Regatta
Chairman Henry Burroughs that
Guy Lombardo's hydro Tempo
VI is up for sale. The price tag:
$4,000. Admittedly that's a fair
amount of money but it does
include a spare Allison engine, a
trailer, truck and lots of little
extras.
1 OF all the unlimiteds in the
United States today, this outfit
rates at the top of the list in
performance, in the view of
many experts. Tempo, a new
boat last year, was off to a rela-
lively late start but after that
she won the Silver Cup, Presi-
dents Cup, International Cup
and Governors Cup, all under
the expert driving of Detroit's
Danny Foster.
| Foster. meanwhile. has signed
up this season with George
Thompson Of Hamilton, Ont.
and will drive the Miss Super
test, an unlimited that has never
really been unlimbered. Fosters
shift of allegiance across the
border apparently accounts for
Lombardo's decision to sell
Tempo vi.
Meanwhile, if there is any pub
lie = spirited Washingtonian or
group of sports fans ready to
raise funds. here is a golden OPP
portunity to get a real winner.
1t would be sort of nice to have
a Miss Washington racing the
glamor circuit.
Getting driver for the boat
would be a cinch. There would
be a block-long line of appli-
cants right among the Wash
ington area racing clan.

one can afford and wanting il
bad enough to make the effort
Mulhern has handled boats
since he was IL years old. He was
born in New jersey and was close
enough to the water to get in q
lot of sailing. Also when he
was in the Air Force in World
War II many of his fights would
return him to Long Island in
time for a week end of sailing
Can Have More Bunks
He decided on the ketch, he
says. because it is small enough
to be handled by one man, vet
large enough to contain hunks
for two. The plans he is work
ing by provide for two additional
transom berths If he ever should
need them.
II want no more day sailers,'
he declares. Il wanted this boat
to be big enough for overnight
accommodations. yet small
enough to handle myself. If it's
much bigger, a 50-footer say,
there is too much work involved
When you want to go sailing
you have to round up a crew
With this one none of the sails
is too large to handle by your
self. You can be under way in
10 OF Is minutes"
He says the ketch would have
been out of his reach if he, had
bought it ready made. He esti-
mates he is saving so per cent
by doing it himself.
He finds the work difficult but
has no trouble doing it.
Truly Hard Going
Il knew nothing about wood

even like 1t. But in my case

had to fasten it on, drilling holes
and tapping in studs-a miser-
able job. This keel is made of
scrap iron. Cast iron is easier
to work because it is soft and
drills easily. You use a differ
ent technique.
But scrap iron has steel in
it and you hit hard spots. When
you do. the drill comes to an
abrupt stop and practically
throws you heels over head,
When you hit one of these spots
you have to use the technique
for drilling hard metal. dousing
it with oil so the drill will take
and then clean up and start
over"
Uses Original Design
Mulhern says he can't 60
wrong because his plans are So
detailed anyone could work them.
The ketch is from an original
design by L. Frances Herreshoff,
a well-known boat designer. 1t
was made for Rudder Magazine
and Herreshoff's articles ran in
great detail for year. Mulhern
says the instructions on what to
do for each step in boat building
are complete to the last degree
even to the special designs for
hardware. He has modified these,
however.
Mulhern collected everything
he needed for his boat before he
started to work-even to a l2-
horsepower auxiliary. The boats
frame is all white oak and her
planking is Philippine mahog-

thick. The decks will be of ma

Holy See Buys
Large Part of
Dead Sea Scrolls

VATICAN CITY - Radio, NC)
The Vatican has purchased a
large part of the much publicized
Biblical manuscripts found in the
caves of the Dead Sea.
The purchase was suggested by
His Holiness Pope Plus XII after
the Jordan government, which
had bought half of the discover
ed manuscripts, authorized the
sale of the remainder. The trans
action was made by the Holy See,
through the Vatican Library.
Many of these documents,
psrtieUl ,rly those found in ths
so-esIled fourth grotfo, fell in
to the hands Of Arab nomsds
and there was some fear thar
by private purchases they
might be scattered throughout
the world.
The ancient manuscripts are
important because they prove the
substantial authenticity of the sa-
cred texts, help to rebuild the
original form of certain works
corrupted by the ancient copyists
and, above all, because they open
new horizons in the history of the
Biblical texts.

MAUMEE, o.--NC) - In one
parish here the Church has lost

Reports Tell How
Reds in Poland
Grant Freedom

BERLIN -- NC) - How can
the Polish communists give the
free world the impression that
the Church in POLAND is enjoying
freedom while the Reds insidu-
ously step UP their relentless
fight against the Church?
Persons who have come here
recently from Poland have fur
nished information that com
munist propaganda Is spreading
the illusion of religious freedom
while refusing its substance.
Polish refugees and expellees
cited several ways in which the
Red regime is seeking to attain
its objective. Among them are
the following:
Religious instruction 10 con-
stantIy evrtsiled in the major
isy OF schools, but In some To-
esIitiss she instructions con-
tinvs vnhindered. When for
eianers accuse shs Red regime
of elannpins down on religion,
ths communists have . ready
answer. They point 10 the
schools where religious inssrue-
fion 10 carried out.
The situation is similar in re
gard to the administration of the
dioceses. The main aim OF the
Red regime is to take over, di
rectly or indirectly, the ecclesias
tical administration. The Reds
primary weapon in this maneu
yer Is the decree of February 10
1858, which states that the re
gime's approval must be obtained
| for every ecclesiastical 1onfifia
| ton in Poland.
| AS a result, a bishop no long
err has the power to assign
priest. The real decision rest
with a communist functionary o
