Co. A National
Guard To Open
Recruiting Drive

Company A, 1880 ACR Mon
tana National Guard, will open
an extensive recruiting drive on
the 18th of February. The climax
will be on % February, Wash
ington's birthday. On that day a

toms birthday was selected as
the Especial Effort Day." George
Washington considered the for
nation of a National Militia as
an integral part of our national
defense. 1t was Washington who
wrote into the constitution the
provisions for the formation of
the National Guard. Then as now
the State Militias were the last
line. of defense of those freedoms
granted to is by the Constitu-
ton.
1t. Col. Howard A. Mckinney
of Culbertson, Battalion Com
mander of the 1st Battalion, 163d
Armored Cavalry Regiment has
asked Company A to contact all
young men and point out the adj
vantages of a National Guard
Career in the discharge of the
reserve obligation each young
incurs as he reaches his 18th
birthday. A very important Pc
riod of a young mans life can
be effected by the methods taken
to complete the reserve service
which must be fulfilled as the
18th birthday is reached. Some of
the options under National Guard
membership are readily adjustable
to plans for careers that come

nee he will receive between $78
nd S85 per month depending up

Rocky Marciano Retires as World Boxing g Champ

NEW YORK, R-Rocky Marci- ano, never beaten in his 49 pro- fessional fights, retired today as heavyweight champion of the world.
 The stocky, amiable boxer made public his decision at hast fly called news conference here.
 No unbeaten heavyweight cham pion before ever has retired and made it stick. Gene Tunney re- tired unbeaten as a champion in 1928, but his record was marred by an earlier defeat as a light heavyweight James Jeffries re- tired in 1905 and Joe Louis in 1949, but both came back later and were beaten.
 In fighting trim, Marciano weighed around 1888. Now he has bulged to 210 Always careful with his money, and a devoted family man, Marciano is comfortably well off. His professional purses were approximately $1,700,000, but of course he could keep only frac- ton of this.
 His wife Barbara played an inn portant factor in persuading him to retire. Shortly before Rocky called the news conference, Mrs. Marciano telephoned Vic DuBoiS, sports editor of the Brockton, Mass, Enterprise, and told him her husband was quitting.
 She explained she had been pleading and begging" with him for her sake and that of their daughter. Mary Anne, to give up boxing
 Marciano, who will be 33 on Sept 21, won the championship from Jersey Joe Walcott in 13 rounds at Philadelphia Sept. 23, 1852, and defended it six times.

Anthony Eden Accepts Invitation
 To Pay Return Visit to Soviet Union

tral Hall, hard by the Houses of Parliament Many of the questions were hostile iii tone, and these Khrushchev took for himself.
 Tired, but in obvious good hu- nor, he deftly and jovially jug gled words on Soviet intentions in the Middle East, the nuclear arms race, prospects for top level So- viet visit to the United States, and prospects for British-SOviet trade His performance was watched by millions of Britons on television.
 While the Soviet leaders said they were pleased with the results of their talks, prepared state ment read by Bulganin reflected dissatisfaction on such issues as disarmament and British-Soviet trade.
 Bulganin said in some places the talks struck underground  rocks"
 "1t is no good, as they say, fool ing ourselves" the white-goateed Premier said. For the present, the problem of disarmament is in a bad way"
 In reply to one question, Khrush- chev indicated Soviet leaders might want to visit the United States-if they thought it could be profitable. Smiling, he parried the direct question by answering: "The United States is a very in- teresting country, and who would not like to visit it if he had busi- ness there?"

Police Kill Large Black Dog Which Attacked Child In CAA Area

A large black dog dragging a chain this morning attacked Susan Carpenter in the CAA area and it is reported her parka was bitten through and that she suffered light decorations before the dog was driven off.
 Susan is the daughter of MT. and Mrs. Robert Carpenter of the Weather Bureau.
 The police had been trying to catch the dog earlier and after the attack Chief Webb cornered it. The dog then attempted to attack him, so Webb had to kill the animal.
 The Police Dept. has received word from the Territorial Dept. of Health that the fox head they had sent to Anchorage showed evidence of rabies. This fox was killed by one of Fred Rohn's dogs at his kennel two weeks ago.

Hickel Still Leads Benson as COP Committeeman
tBY THE ASSOCIATED PREssl

Walter Hickel of Anchorage to- day continued to lead Territorial Labor Commissioner Henry Ben son for Republican national com mitteeman for Alaska.
 The lead for the Anchorage bus inessman, who is the present party committeeman, stood at 416 today on the basis of unofficial Associ- ated Press tabulations.
 The figures were: Hickel 3,667; Benson 3,251.
 The interest in the race was ln- creased by the well recognized distaste with which many Repub- lican leaders view Benson's prom thence in party affairs. They have criticized the labor commissioners role as a Republican standard bearer in the past on the grounds that he has drawn much of his political support for labor com missioner from Democrats.
 Special interest is centering on a race for one of the Democratic nominations for the territorial Senate in the First Division. The contest is between Sen. Marcus Jensen of Douglas and Henry Ro- den of Juneau, former treasurer, a former attorney general and member of the first territorial leg islature. Returns yesterday after noon gave Jensen slight lead, 2,295 to 2,199. The other Demo- cratic Senate nomination was won by ex-Sen. Frank Petrovich, who was about 430 ahead of Jensen.

Richard Nixon Says He Will Run
 For Reelection as Vice President
tBY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS,

Exultant Republicans were vir- tually certain of an Eisenhower Nixon ticket again this year. If the Democrats were worried about battling the same combination that beat them in 1852, they were not showing it.
 Vice President Nixon's an- nouncement yesterday that he will seek reelection ended any slight doubt as to his intentions. Presi- dent Eisenhower said he was de lighted" at Nixon's decision.
 Thus, unless Eisenhower's health should falter, renomination of the COPS 1852 team at the party's August convention in San Fran cisco appears to be foregone conclusion.
 House Republican Leader Mar tin of Massachusetts predicted the Eisenhower-N Nixon ticket would be renominated ''by exclamation"
 Senate Republican Leader Know land of California said Nixon's an nouncement clarifies the political atmosphere" He said the party now can "close ranks and direct attention to gaining majorities in the Senate and House." where the Democrats now are in control.
 COP National Chairman Leon ard w. Hall said Nixon has been "a great vice president
 Sen. Kefauver told newsmen in Pittsburgh an Eisenhower-N Nixon ticket lis as strong as the Repub- licans could put up." But, he add ed, "I feel certain the Democrats will win in November"
 From all indications, Nixon will do much of the Republican ball carrying in the coming political ball-earrying in the coming politi- cal campaign. Some of the things he has said of them in the past aroused considerable resentment among Democrats.
 Zeroing in on the vice president, Democratic National Chairman Paul M. Butler said he feels sure "an overwhelming majority of American voters of both parties believe that MT. Nixon is not the type of person to be in a position from which he may succeed to the presidency ."

House Fight Opens | odoy
On U. S. SchooI-Aid Bill

bill. introduced by Representa-
tive Kelley. Democrat Of Penn
sylyania, and backed in general
by the House Democratic leader
ship. would be a hazardous en-
tering wedge for greater Federal
interference with public school
systems and policies Of States.
There also is a dispute. to some
extent along party lines but also
between representatives of So
called rich or poor States. con-
corning the method of distribut-
ing the proposed SIG billion in
Federal grants over four-year
period. The Kelley bill would
base the allotments largely on
State school populations. The
Eisenhower administration pro-
posed a formula basing such as
sistance largely on demonstrated
State needs.
Civil Rights Opponents Heard
The Rules Committee meeting
on the civil rights bill yesterday
heard only occasional mention Of
prolonged struggle over the
school aid bill which the COM
mittee cleared last week. But
the argum ents offered by
witnesses opposing the civil
rights legislation urged by the
Eisenhower administration and
supported by some Northern
Democrats raised substantially
the same fundamental protests.
The bill would create a civil
rights commission to study the
overall problem, create a Justice
Department civil rights division
to be headed by an additional
Assistant Attorney General. and
permit the Attorney General to
institute civil suits in Federal
Courts on various types of COM
plants of denial of or inter-
ference with voting privileges

Death Penalty
Appeal Fails

Everett D. Green. 65. today
moved closer to the death chair
he gambled against as the full
bench Of the United States Court
Of Appeals. splitting, 6 to 3. up
held his conviction Of first-de-
gree murder.
Green is under death sentence
in the arson-murder of Miss
Betty Brown, an 83-year old
spinster in a room house fire May
26. 1858.
Today marked the third time
the case has been ruled on by
the appellate court.
Appealed First Conviction
Originally, Green. although in
dicted on flrst-degree murder,
had been convicted of the lesser
|offense Of second-degree muir
der. He was sentenced to serve
S to 20 years.
But he appealed this on the
grounds that he would prefer
to gamble with a new trial and
the possibility Of a first-degree
conviction rather than take the
chance of dying in jail.
A three-judge appellate tri-
bunal granted him a new trial
with the warning that he may
suffer a death sentence.
The forecast was borne out
when, upon retrial, Green was
convicted of flrst-degree murder
and sentenced to the electric
chair.
Nine-Man Review
He appealed that conviction
but, again, a three-judge panel
upheld the jury'S verdict. SUBJ
sequently the full nine man
bench of the Appeals Court
agreed to review the case. To-
days opinion was the result.
The majority ruling was writ
ten by Judge Wilbur K. Miller.
1t was concurred in by Judges
