Snow AVerts
Disaster for

SQUAW VALLEY, Calf, Feb.
g (AP).-Rain turned to snow
just in time to avert possible
disaster at the Winter Olympic
Games.
The snow started yesterday
and continued today. Hal Root
OF the Weather Bureau said he
expected the snow to fall all
day. The temperature at 6 am.
was % degrees and Root said
he doubted it would rise enough
during the day to renew yes
terday's watery threat to the
games.
A blizzard ragged through
Squaw Valley yesterday, but
shortly after the danger of
flooding and damage to ski
race courses became critical.
rain turned to snow and the
threat subsidized. Temperatures
had dipped just enough-to the
freezing point.
In Serious Condition
Early in the day H. D.
Thoreau, managing director
for the Games, stated, THE
Squaw Valley site of the VIII
Olympic Winter Games is now
in serious condition because of
the continued unprecedented
rain storms in the Sierras. All
possible measures are being
taken to protect the Olympic
facilities from the potential
damage"
Protective measures helped
but nature provided the real
a nswer when temperatures
dropped in early afternoon and
snow fell.
Still the compacted snow
parking pad was nearly washed
out and some ski runs were
damaged. Trees crashed down
in winds ranging from so miles
an hour in the valley to 100
miles per hour on the peaks.
One 75-footer smashed down 80
feet behind the Olympic ad-
ministration building leaving
a main power line dangling.

President Eisenhower today
told Cal Griffith, president of

do his best" to try to attend
the opening game of the
American League at Grifith
Stadium April 10 when Wash

The President and Griffith
met for about a half-hour at
the White House and Griffith
departed with the firm convic-
ton that Mr.. Eisenhower fol-
lows the sports pages closely.
THE President discussed our
power hitters," Griffith said,
land observed that it's a shame
we don't have No. and 2 hit
tiers who could get on base in
front of that power and hit
.280 or .290. He mentioned
Eddie YoSt as the type of
player we should have getting
on base for US"
The President also asked
Griffith if Zoilo Versailles
rookie shortstop, is ready to do
a job in the majors. Cal in
formed Mr.. Eisenhower that
Versailles hasn't reached ma
, turity and that his capability
still must be tested.
Mr.. Eisenhower also referred
to Camilo Pascual and Pedro
Ramos. the Senators top pitch
ers. and asked if pitching in
1.-THE Cuban Winter League was
likely to hurt them. Griffith
explained he had cautioned the
Cubans not to pitch more than
once a week in their native
land.
Griffith did not present the
customary gold pass to the
President, since it isn't ready.

Hometown rivalries add
spice to the college basketball
menu tonight and tomorrow
night, with Catholic U. playing
at American U. at 8 o'clock
tonight and George Washing
ton at Georgetown tomorrow
night.
Almost a backyard affair is
an Atlantic Coast Conference
game tomorrow night in which
Maryland plays Virginia at
Charlottesville. The Terps'
objective is to end a two-game
losing streak.
Tonight's game at AU is the
only one this year between
these prominent Mason-Dixon
Conference rivals, unless they
meet again in either the pre-
liminary playoff-an enticing
gimmick the league is adding
this year-or the conference
tournament.
Eagles Are Favored
American u, the defending
champion, is SO in the league
and 1913 overall and Is favored
to beat the Cardinals. Gu, Ga
and 80, is primed to give the
Eagles a battle, and If such
lads as Gene Jasper, Gene
Koran and Tony Carroll are
in form the game should be
exciting.
American has a height ad-
vantage with Bill Beauchamp
and Dick Wells, and a real
good shooter in Willie Jones.
Tomorrow nights game at
Georgetown has the makings
of a big-time thriller. The
Hoyas beat the Colonials the
first time around, 86-82, just
a little over a month ago on
GW's part-time home floor at
Uline Arena. The advantage
should be with Georgetown on
its own floor, but there's moth
ing certain about it.
Both Clubs Improved
Georgetown has won its last
two games and is go for the
season. One thing notable
about the Hoyas this season is
that never have they been
more than one victory over the
500 mark, although they have
achieved that level several
times.
Both the Colonials and Hoyas
are in good winning form since
returning from the mid-year
exams layoff. CIV has won two
of its three games and handed
Virginia Tech its first Southern
Conference defeat. The loss was
to West Virginia at Morgan
town. for which no apology is
expected and none made,
Georgetown has won three
of four since getting back. In
that stretch Puddy Sheehan
hasn't been scoring up to his
usual pace, but everybody else
has been hot.

Joke Ballot

The decision to ban slate" voting
already has made joke out of the Dis
trtct's May 3 primary, and no excuse is
possible for the long-standing confusion
which brought about this lamentable
situation.
AS cited by the Board of Elections.
the reason that Washingtonians NAV not
enjoy the ease and simplicity of SLATE"
voting is the questionable legality of the
procedure. With majority of the board
holding this view, as it did, there appar-
emily was no alternative to its action a
teW days ago-especially in view of the
threat of court fight a scant three
weeks before the election.
What we can't understand, however,
is (l) why in the world the board waited
this long to make a formal ruling and
,C2) why-in the face of the Board of
Elections continuous inSiStence that an
amendment to the District voting law
Is needed to permit SLATE" voting
the District Commissioners and the To-
cal Democratic and Republican leaders
Jailed long ago to launch a strong drive
for the legislation. According to Jo-
seph Fairbanks, the board chairman, he
urged this course in January, 1852 and
could get no local political support.
Even this effort came late. Previous
board officials called for the amend
ment after the 1856 election, when the
ballot was so complex that II days were
required to complete the tabulation of
HoI
candidate. At that time there were 95
GstingS on the Democratic side of the
ballot alone
Compared with next months ballot,
the voting and vote-counting chores of
four years ago were picnic. There will
be 157 candidates on the Democratic
ballot this time, and voters who want
to complete it will have to mark an "X'
'57 times. Even though the various or
ganized states of candidates will be listed
together on the ballot, each of the can
didates must be marked individually.
With SLATE" voting, the total number of
KS" on either side of the ballot would
have been cut to less than dozen.
The deficiency in the present law
is just one more example of the kind
of problem that arises because the Dis
trict is not represented in the Congress
which legislates for it. We hope it
gets such representation before the next
election. In the meantime, local off,
Gals should begin work as soon as the
May primary ends on legislation which
will prevent recurrence of this sad
story the next time.
