HIS month marks the last time that Oscar
Robertson will walk out on a basketball floor
as a college player. An overflow crowd is ex-
pected at Cincinnati Garden to witness the grand
finale OF the man who has become legend on the
University Of Cincinnati campus.
Each point that Oscar makes on the court in
that final regular season game against Xavier OF
Ohio will be basketball history. Each move The
Big o. makes will be etched in the minds OF thou
sands OF Cincinnati fans and basketball fans every
where to document their belief that here is the
greatest"
Shortly after the season started, Robertson was
cinch to get the Player OF the Year" award for
the third consecutive season. First he broke the
Three Year Major College scoring record OF 1883
points held by Frank Selvy of Furman. Then he
went on to break the Collegiate Career mark of
ASST set in four seasons by Dick Hemric. Oscar
should finish his three seasons Of college eligi-
bity with $500 points, indelibly punctuating
his re-write of the major college record book.
Minneapolis spokesman. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn.) 1934-2000, 1960-04-01
CINCINNATI'S WONDER BE

Pressure is bound to build around a reputation
as fabulous as Robertson's. Fans have been known
to jeer any performance that is less than spectacu
lar. II Is difficult for the crowds to understand that
even the greatest have muscles and tough
luck Robertson has learned to ignore the jeers,
and invariably returns to perform still greater
court feats.
Oscar has had to cope with his share of racial
slurs. Perhaps his greatest test came in the Dixie
Classic few years ago. One Of the opposing Wake
forest players heaped insults Robertson in the
opening game. verbal exchange erupted into
violence when the two players went into the air
for rebound and fell to the floor wrestling Robert
son left the game for two minutes that Cincinnati
trainers could wipe the blood from his head and
shoulders. The rest of the tourney filled with
tension and puncuated with verbal outbursts During
one lul in play, black cat mysteriously found its
way onto the floor. Once, after Robertson fouled
out some Of the dxie-brand Of basketball fans
began to sing Bye Bye Blackbird."
Minneapolis spokesman. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn.) 1934-2000, 1960-04-01

Robertson played we'll under the circumstances,
but he was consciously trying to avoid another in
cident This handicapped his playing in Cncinnati's
sem-f loss to North Carolina State Although
he scored 20 points, he obviously under wraps"
After the game, he was asked what he thought
about the situation. He merely replied, they
and we didn't" Personal friends have since said
that he very upset by the incident and this
almost made him decide to accept a big offer to
play with the Harlem GlobetrOtters."
The desire for education out, and Oscar
decided to remain at Cincinnati. The fans loved
the decision. They have shown this in their attend
anCe and enthusiasm, their great sense of identi-
fication with Robertson, and even greater sense
of pride in their hearts for the star from Indianapolis
Oscar intends to play pro- ball, and every coach
in the MIA is casting wistful eyes in his direction.
II the Queen City fans have 1t their way, he could
we'll end up with the Cincinnati Royals.
Wherever Robertson goes, he is sure to add
further embellishments to the legend of The Big o."

Minister'S statement is reassuring. On

qualification which would seem to leave
the way clear for immediate retaliatory
use in an emergency. And while Defense
Minister Watkinson has stressed that
such use may not take place in British
territorial waters, it is assumed that the
patrol area for these underwater craft
will be outside these limits.
With all Of this, it is most of
all clear that Britains Conservative
government is reaffirming its staunch
adherence to the Anglo American
defense partnership and to the NATo
alliance as whole The fact that Hugh
Gaitskell, determined foe of the uni

reelection as Parliamentary leader of

that future Labor government also
would reaf1rm loyalty to the partner

Educotion-For What?

Senator Kennedy has told a Chicago
audience that he thinks a presidential
campaign "tells you something about
the nature Of candidate" He believes
In these campaigns "as a great edu-
cation-for the voters-and for the
candidates"
Up to point, this certainly is true.
The 1860 campaign has indeed told us
something, not only about the candi-
dates, but about many of the people
who support the candidates. 1t has been
a great education, especially during
these closing days, in how campaign
should not be conducted.
In Chicago, Senator Kennedy jibed
at the Republican rescue squad" nam
Ing Nixon, Rockefeller and Lodge, as
$4,000 partisans dutifully and Justify
booed each name. Senator Kennedy,
wisely and discreetly, did not mention
the President. Had he done so, we have
no doubt that Mr.. Eisenhower, too,
would have been booed-and this would
have been notable contribution to
political education.
In Dallas, Lyndon Johnson and his
wife are insulted and jostled by Repub-
lican partiSans. Harry Truman, who has
been waging low-level campaign in
behalf Of Senator Kennedy, sheds croco-
ollie tears at the tragic" spectacle Of
President Eisenhower's remaining ener-
gieS" being exploited" in support of a
"Second-rate politician" In the closing
hours, hundreds of thousands OF smear
annh1efS ora dictrihutad %hrourI1o,,&
the country-Spreading the lie that Mr..
Nixon and Mr.. Lodge are anti-Se nitic,
anti-Negro, or both. Doubtless mueh the
same is being attempted against Sena-
tor Kennedy by the traders in religious
prejudice and religious hatred.
AS for the candidates themselves,
much Of their final effort is being ex-
pended on petty charge and counter
charge, the kind of thing one might
expect in ward-heeler contest. The
earlier pretension to sober discussion of
the real and the great issues has largely
gone down the drain as the day of
decision approaches.
In an effective passage in his Pitts
burgh speech, Mr.. Eisenhower told of a
narrowing decision he had to make on
the eve of the Normandy landing-and
Of the even more fateful and difficult
decisions which he found awaiting him
when he went to the White House. The
lot Of the next President may well be
even more soul-trying.
Can it really be said that the cam
paign now ending has served to educate
the candidates for the assumption Of
such responsibilities, or that it has
helped educate the voters in choosing
the man best equipped for the office?
We doubt it very much.

Growing Prestige in Space

Americas latest satellite, Explorer
VIII, has been given mission which
we'll might lead to revolutionary ad-
vances in the field of electronic COM
munications. The 90-pound spinning
top" is loaded with instruments designed
to clear up some of the mysteries of
the ionosphere, the electrically charged
shell" around the earth that, anoma-
lously, both helps and hampers radio
and television transmissions.
The ionospheric belt of ionized air
or gas which extends outward from
about so to several hundred miles into
space is helpful in that it bounces radio
waves back to earth and thus enables
them to travel great distances around
the globe, despite the curvature of the
earth. However, it also has an unfor-
tunate capacity for mischief. It some
times bounces back television and other
electronic waves in ways that tend to
scramble picture reception. And, eSpe-
cially when solar 'StormS" are at their
height, it can diStort or even interrupt
completely commercial communications
While it is known that solar
radlatlOn plays major parC IN knocking
electrons off atmospheric atoms and
thus ionizing or charging them with
positive electricity, exactly how or why
the charged layers of ionized gas per-
form their rejecting functions at times
but let radio waves pass through at
other times is a subject of scientific
conjecture. Until more is known about
the precise nature extent and origin of
the ionosphere, efforts to make fuller
use of its effects and also to circumvent
its sporadic interference with normal
communications will be handicapped.
Explorer VIII in it's whirling orbits
around the earth will penetrate the
several ionospheric layers and record
their electrical and other characteristics.
The findings will be transmitted back
to earth for study by electronic, atmos-
pheric and other scientific specialists
1t may require months or years to anal
we the results and reach conclusions.
Meanwhile, Explorer VIII will serve
to enhance Americas prestige in space.

100 Years Ago

Abraham Lincoln was
elected President Of the
United States 100 years ago
today. Lincoln carried all
the North but New Jersey.
where Stephen A. Douglas
received a greater popular
vote. Not a single electoral
ballot was cast for Lincoln
in the South. The popular
vote in the SO States that
then made UP the Union
stood: Lincoln, 1866. .452:
Breckenridge. 849,781; Doug
las, 1,376,957; Bell, 588,879.
John Breckinridge, the seces-
sionist candidate, ran second
in the electoral count. polling
72 to Lincoln's 180. Douglas
received only II electoral
ballots. Many interpretations
were made of the election
result, but the most logical
one was that a majority Of
the Nation had decided that
slavery must be contained
within the States where it
then existed. The Star Of
November Z, 1860. said: "The

citizens, now before them the

forms of the Constitution is
undeniable, and that his ele-
walton to power in the Gov
ernment under that election
can no longer be opposed
except by naked and palpable
revolutionary means, is no
less apparent. Those who
counsel aught but acquies-

counsel neither more nor less
than revolution. The
South is the richest and most
prosperous community under
the Government Of the United

endangered by revolution,
will be rash enough to favor
any such violent change as
is now proposed?" However,

Count Leo Tolstoi figured
in a real life story half a

elements of a tragic Russian

Russia, says that Countess
Tolstoi twice attempted to
commit suicide today by
drowning through a hole in

from Tula came word that
Tolstoi himself had disap-

the wife who bore him nine
children: II cannot continue
longer to live surrounded by
luxury, and, like many other
old men, I retire from the
world to complete my life in
solitude. I ask that you do
