Joe Norris. one Of my team

a fine hit, something was lack
ing in the hit.
/ won't argue that point. But
If a bowler is consistently leav-
ing the same pin on good hits,
then something's wrong with
his angle or with the pin ac-
ton which his hit produces.
In either case. the smart
bowler will make a change be-
fore he leaves too many Of
these pins on what seemed like
good pocket hits. / generally
like to change my angle just
a bit when I'm leaving the
same pin.
For example, If l keep leaving
the 10 pin, / move slightly to the
right. II the I or the Z is stick.
ing, I move a bit to the left.
In any case, the change in
angle should be very slight.
I don't want to move so
much that / won't be able to

 A co1nmunique issue by the royal palace said that according to the Arab Union constitution and due to the absence of King Faisal of Iraq, Hussein has taken over powers as head df the Arab Union as from today.
 The communique said Hussein also has taken over as commander in chief of the Arab army and all armed forces of the Arab Union.
 Hussein, addressing his people by radio, asked that reports con- cerning the fate of certain mem- bers of the royal family in Iraq be treated with reservation. There was no clear word here as to the fate of Faisal.

President Calls
 Bipartisan Meet To Discuss Action

WASHINGTON, R - Presi- dent Eisenhower summoned a group of Congressional Demo- crats and Republicans to an emergency White House meeting today to discuss the turbulent Middle Eastern situation.
 The urgent summons was touched off by the overthrow of King Faisal's pro-Western gov enrment in Iraq amidst demands in Congress for a reappraisal of US. policy in the Mideast
 The White House announced the meeting after Eisenhower conferred for more than an hour and a half with Secretary of State Dulles and Vice President Nixon on the Iraq coup.
 Eisenhower left a meeting of the National Security Council for his talk with Dulles and Nixon. This, and the sudden summoning of a bipartisan meeting, indicated the administration takes a very grave view of the Iraq develop ment.
 The Iraq coup appeared to have caught the Eisenhower ad- by surprise. Intel ligencea reports had indicated anti-government plotting, but authorities acknowledged that none predicted the fury or timing of the revolt.
 The uprising was viewed as a carefully connected secret plot with many young junior Iraqi of ficers involved.
 Shocked State Department of ficials feared that the coup might set off similar pro-Egyp- tian uprisings in Jordan and pos sibly Saudi Arabia.

Sec. SeatOn Is
 COP Choice As Adams Successor

WASHINGTON, R - Secre- tary of Interior Fred Seaton ap- parently is the overwhelming choice of Congressional Repub- icans to succeed Sherman Adams if Adams should quit his Presi- dential assistants job.
 COP members of Congress don't expect to have much, if any, in- fluence in the matter, but a sounding of sentiment indicates most of them hope that if there is a change, Seaton will move in as chief of the White House staff.
 Seaton himself says the ques- tion of a successor to Adams is purely academic. ''I don't ex- pect to see MT. Adams leave," he told newsmen in Minneapolis.
 In his cabinet job Seaton has been highly cooperative with Senators and House members where it was possible for him to help out with their problems. He also has the reputation of being able to say "no"-when he has to-in soft language that turns away their wrath.
 Adams, on the other hand, has been known as a rather flinty ''no" man. And that obviously has contributed to the unwilling ness of many Republicans to de- fend the Presidential aide in this controversy over his acceptance of expensive favors from Bernard Goldfine.
 The Detroit News, quoting un- named top-ranking Republican sources, said Sunday that Adams plans to quit during the Labor Day weekend. Its copywrighted story said the decision to quit is Adams own, not that of Pres ident Eisenhower.
 The paper said details of Adams reported plans to leave are still being worked out. It noted that the timing it gave would be after Congress adjourns but still two. months before the November elections.
