three of the states Dairy Hero
Improvement Association super
visors were honored at Farm anC
Home Week ceremonies on the
University of Delaware campus
yesterday when they were pre-.
sented with cash prizes and bronze
plaques for outstanding achieve.
ment in dairy herd management
and record-keeping. DIR. Roy Dav-
enport of the Supplee-Wills-Jones
Milk Company of Philadelphia
presented the awards which are
sponsored by the National Dairy
Products Company.
Winners among the farmers
were C. d. Buck of Buena Vista
Farm, New Castle, who received
bronze plaque and $50 for first
place. Buena Vista's farm manag-
er, Horace Larrowe, accepted the
award.
Second prize went to Tull Broth
ers of Sussex Farms, Seaford;
they received plaque and $40
cash. Third was Joe Moore and
Son, Dover, who won a $50 award.
Fourth was r. v. Stallard, of Sea-
ford, who was given a $40 award.
Fifth prize winner was H. Wal
lace Cook and Sons, whose post
office address is Elkton, Md; they
won prize of $40.
Delmar Young, Extension Dairy
man at the University of Della
ware, who helped judge the con-
test, said that these 5 farms were
selected from a list of 21 of the
outstanding herds in the state that
are listed on the National Honor
Roll of the National Purebred
Dairy Cattle Association. He
pointed out that all five farms
had excellent milk production, fine
herd management and excellent
forage and pasture programs.
The herd on Buenta Vista Farm,
registered Guernseys, averaged
10,114 lbs. of milk per COW and
$50 lbs. butterfat. It's best COW,
a 6-year old named Roamers Di-
ana, became the first Guernsey
cow in the United States to pro-
duce over 10000 lbs. milk per
year on twice-a-day milking and
still meet oalving requirements
necessary for her record to be-
come official.
Tul1 Brothers also own one of
the nations outstanding cows. She
is a 15-year old Holstein that
ranks seventh in the United
States with a lifetime record of
215,770 lbs. of milk produced.
One of the main reasons why
the Moore farm was honored was
that their feed cost for produc-
ing milk was lowest of all. The
Stallard herd led its county Dairy
Herd Improvement Association
last year and the Cook farm was
ranked high both for its herd and

a member of the Ten-Ton COM
mittee, said that poor weather

another pitcher who won as many
games as Art Ditmar, who lost as
many as he won and finished with the
inelegant earned run average of 5.O4
runs per game.
Neither Ditmar nor Alex Kellner,
who won IL, was supposed to be the
Athletics pitching ace. Bobby Shantz
was. But Bobby, mite of guy who
not long ago was the best Southpaw
pitcher in the trade CAT in 1852 for

mist police.
He said the revolt surprised
him. He added that Hungary,
with other leadership, might
have escaped a bloody revolution
and taken the political course
of Poland. This was an evident
reference to the regimes that
preceded Kadar.
Mr.. Field declared that any
idea of his returning to the
United States is more remote
than ever. that he finds life in
Hungary exciting since the re-
bellion. Mrs. Field said she
wanted to remain in Hungary
because she had come to admire
the Hungarian people.
The Fields spent the fighting
period in October and November
in a modern clinic reserved for
high Communist Party and gov
ernment officials. He had gone
there for treatment for stom-
ach hemorrhage caused by an
old ulcer. His wife was caught
there on visit during the fight

State Department Expert
For a time between the two
world wars Mr.. Field was one Of
the United States State Depart
ment's experts on Western Euro
pean affairs. He disappeared in
Prague. Czechoslovakia, in May,
1949, and ended up in a Hun
garian jail. His wife disappeared
soon afterward in Prague while
searching for her husband.
The Hungarian Reds claimed
Mr.. Field was connected to a
plot between Foreign Minister
Laszlo Rajk and Yugoslavia's S
President Tito to turn Hungary
over to American imperialists."

Hungarian refugees have been

the offer in a letter to Secretary

ton, called the offer IAN ad-
mirable gesture"
Gov. Marin's letter noted that
puerto Rico is one of the most
overcrowded land areas in the

Rican alive who wouldn't make

1t is said the Hungarian peo-
pie, especially its intellectuals
and technical experts. had been
cut off from the West "in order
to prevent them from learning
how backward Hungary has
been"
The papers three-column arti-
Gle pleaded with Hungarian in
tellectuals and engineers to stop
fleeing to the West and added:
Our most important task to-
day is to lead our country out Of
its economic troubles. For this
purpose we need among other
things. loans from abroad. And
we must arrange that our tech
nicianS may visit the West as
well as Socialist Communist
countries.
"And we must prevent our own
experts from leaving the coun-
try. legally or Illegally. OF course
this should not be done by pun
ishing those who escape or re-
fusing passports to those who
ask for them. 1t should be done
by a radical change in our own
economic life.
Hungary needs not only help
in hard currency, but also tech
nical aid. 1t would be of great
help for Hungarian experts if
the Soviet Union, England and
the United States would set up
here technical information bu-
reaus supplied with technical
literature and research results.

approval of a record federal

Defense Minister Ivan Gosnjak
said Yugoslavia thanked the
United States for military aid it

Lawmakers in both houses
voted for the budget by raising

each section of the budget must

Spokesman for President Tito's
Communist government said
main emphasis was being placed
on consumer goods and raising

The overall budget called for
spending 5000 million more than
last year but just about the
same amount for defense.
Gen. Gosnjak told Parliament
it was the first time in recent
