ship. And, just as misfortune can ALLEVIATE
sunshine friends, success often aienates
those who appear to be true friends. While
envy and jealousy do not part genuine
friends, such developments inevitably part
the sunshine variety.
Using the Bible as guide and some; of
the great examples of friendship and love
in history, one can generally settle upon
one basic rule for friendship. If we can be
happy over the sudden success and wealth
of our friend, share his misfortune and un-
popularity, if that is the turn of events,
and stand ready to help or advise, or even
get out of the way, as the occasion may
warrant, we have come close to being true
friend
Finally, if you have such friend, loyal
all the way, hold on to him or her. That
should be your most priced possession, out
side Of God and your family.

Increased Unemployment

THE latest government announcement on
employment is hopeful but is, unfortu-
nately, no sure sign that cure has been
found for the problem which has plagued
the working force in the United States for
many. years now.
Figures just released show that unem-
ploymcnt dropped almost 100000 in March,
which is about twice as much as is normally
expected for this time of year. Employ
ment Increased over 100000 - from Feb
ruary to March which is also encourage
ing.
But the cold fact is that there are still
almost 100000 Americans unemployed.
This is figure which remains surprisingly
high when we talk about record prosperity
and that sort of thing which is the cur
rent trend in government circles.
1t is SOLDERING to realize that uncmploy-
ment in March Of this year, 1859, was high

THERE have been $4,000 u s. military

While military aviation cannot be COM
pared to commercial aviation, for various
reasons, comparison between commercial
airlines and MATS, the military air trans
port service, is interesting
These figures show that the record of
MATS reveals about twice as many fatali-

line. We would think, tentatively and claim
ing to be no expert that this is excessively
high.
We wonder whether military transporta-
ton ground vehicles also show a similar
disparity with commercial counterparts. In
any event, it seems that added attention to
the problem Of military air accidents is in
dictated. Happily, the 1858 record was the
best in some years, and it is hoped that this
trend will continue.

True Friendship

FRIENDS are hard to come by in this life,
anyone who has ever had occasion to
have ones friends tested undoubtedly
knows. Nevertheless, one of life's greatest
joys is to have one true friend - or more
if that fortunate circumstance should
favor an individual.
One will find that the test Of friendship
comes when it costs something to remain
loyal friend The money test will eliminate
ninety per cent Of ones friends, but the test
which will eliminate ninety nine per cent is
the occasion which demands loyalty to

friend.
Realizing that no one is perfect, we must
all adjust our thinking and philosophy to
the fact that our friends will make mis-
takes, just as we will. Mistakes must be for
given, although not necessarily forgotten,
in a spirit of give-and-take, and comrade-

believes 1t is inevitable that the

have q Communist revolution.
Mr.. Hartman makes these
points:
Premier Stain never lost
sight Of the ultimate goal Of
world domination by Commun-

Mr.. Khrushchev. The world
Communist boss is a fanatical
believer in a Marxist faith, con-

Of capitalism in all the world.
Mr.. Khrushchev has made
1t abundantly clear that when

Wet Union would render all
necessary assistance to assure
the success of the revolution"
An Eye for Successor
Mr.. Hartman tried to dis
abuse Mr.. Khrushchev of the
notion that the United States
economy was stagnating. Mr..
Khrushchev took violent ex-
ception," contending he could,
by Marxist doctrine, better
analyze the American system
than Americans could.
Mr.. Harriman's conversations

the Red boss the admission that
1t was a mistake for Stain not
to have definitely designated
a successor before he died. Mr..
Khrushchev said he did not

Mr.. Hartman sees some hope

Mr.. Hartman suggests that

NoNegIigence Is Found
In Death Of Sonny Lohr

A special subcommittee of
the University of Maryland S
Athletic Council released a re-
port of its investigation into
the death of Charles Sonny
Lohr yesterday, and found no
evidence Of negligence on any,
ones part in connection with
the death of the football player.
Lohr, 19-year-old sophomore
from Bladensburg, collapsed
following the afternoon prac-
tice session Of September 2 and
died September 6 at University
Hospital in Baltimore. The
cause of death was recorded as
a heat stroke.
Geary Eppley, dean of men
at the university, was chair
man of the committee ap-
pointed by President Wilson H.
ElkinS. Other members of the
committee were Warren john
son, professor of physical edu-
cation, health and recreation

proved by the entire athletic
council and forwarded to the
president.
Nothing Unusual Found
The conclusion of the COM
mittee's report was (a) that
there was nothing unusual
about the practice session as
on September 2, and that it
certainly was no more strenu-
GUS than that associated with
many other vigorous collegiate
sports.
"And, (b) that Lohr's train
ing routine in lieu of scrim-
mage could not be considered
excessive, (c) that there was
no evidence of negligence on
anyone's part, and Cd that
Charles Lohr's death must be
regarded a most unusual and
unfortunate accident"

ions and statements from the

Cooper Beats
Erskine, Aims
For Tit|eFight

LONDON, Nov. IS CAP).-
Henry Cooper, British and En-
pire heavyweight champion, to-
day announced he's got one
fighter in mind for his next
bout-World Champion Inge-
mar JohansSon of Sweden.
Cooper's confidence about a
world title fight stemmed from
his successful defense of the
British title against Challenger
Joe Erskine last night.
The fight ended after 2:55 of
the 18th round with Erskine
sprawled across the ropes and
his face lolling over ringside
fans.
Knocked Unconscious
Erskine had been down for
two counts Of seven a few
minutes earlier. Then Cooper
waded in and knocked Erskine
unconscious with a fusillade OF
punches.
Referee Eugene Henderson
stopped the f1ght-though Err
skine was out for a good 80
seconds. So Cooper's win went
into the record books as a tech
nical knock -out.
Nov the fighter I want to
meet is Ingemar Johansson,
the 25-year-old Cooper said.
Il think I can defeat Johans-
son and win the title for
Britain"
Erskine ended the fight like
a broken doll with his head
dropping over the rope.
"a Good Puncher"
Erskine. the 25-year-old for
mer British champion who out
pointed American Boxer Willie
Pastrano, said: Cooper is q
good puncher. There's no mis-
take about that"
The sell-out crowd of 10000
at London's Earls Court Sta
dium saw a fight packed with
punching, good boxing-and
plenty of incidents.
The business started seusa-
tionally in the first round. Err
skine stumbled to the canvas
for a count Of one. Just as he
rose, and still only halfway up,
Cooper threw a long left. Down
went Erskine for a count of
three-and the crowd roared
that it was a foul punch.
ErSkine took the second
round-and the fight was still
wide open. In the fifth Cooper
threw a punch after the bell.
Erskine looked CLASSY eyed with
his arms lolling by his side.

the fight to go on.

As Nixon Moves
To Bolster Defense

Still fuming about the Red
skins loss to the Cleveland

today, benching three members
Of the backfield and moving
one rookie into the cast.
Rookie Ben Scott, Doyle Nix
and Richie McCabe were shunt-
ed aside as the squad began

or two to help the Redskins

into Scotti's post at left wing
giving up his place at right
wing to Dick Haley.

available, after getting in for
only one play Sunday. Nixon
will shift Johnny Olszewski to
right halfback to replace James
on offense. Olszewski, who set
a club record Of 100 yards car
lrying the ball against the
Browns, will have Ed Sutton
for a running mate. If, for any
reason, Nixon is obliged to
break up this combination, he'll
go into a three-end offense,
with Jim Podoley as a slot back.
AS a whole the mass move
figures to give the Redskins
more speed on pass defense
and, Nixon fervently hopes, a
better brand of tackling.
