Sentinel Adds
Track TO List
OF Selections
By George Bragaw
Sports Editor

The Montgomery County
Sentinel will name ALL Coun-
ty squads for both baseball
and track on these pages
next week.
The Sentinel will name a Is
man baseball squad as in pre-
vious years with the aid of
county coaches, league officials,
and, in some cases, the boys
themselves.
For the first time in the
Washington metropolitan area,
the Sentinel will pick an all
star track squad. The squad
will be picked on the basis of
overall competitive value rather
than on individual marks set on
one particular meet. Twelve in
dividual stars will be picked
along with three relay teams.
The Sentinel has picked All
County teams for the past
three years. For the first two
years the teams were named
for only football and baseball
Last year an All-County base.
ball team was named and track
will be added this season.
Many of the top athletes pro-
duced by Montgomery County
schools received first recogni-
ton through the Sentinel. And
many of those who have re.
ceived athletic grants and star
dom were n a m d to Sentinel
All-County squads.
Chief of these is, perhaps,
Jim LeCompte who was named
to football and basketball All
County teams three years ago.
Jim was first string guard for
the University of North Caro-
lima last fall.
Among stars of the past who
received Sentinel recognition
were Kenny Smith of B-CC,
Tommy Brown of Blair, Alex
Ober of Wheaton and Jackie
Smith of Richard Montgomery.

Maryland State Track and
Field Meet at Gainesville
High, Gainesville, Md. start

its greatest challenge in those
events.
Jim O'Neill won both hurdle
events in record times as Blair
swept to an easy county meet
victory last week. O'Neill took
the 120-yard high hurdles in 1876
and the 180-yard low hurdles
in pit as Blair ran up 52A
points to second place bees
1914. Walter Johnson and
Northwood had 26A and Rich

Caution on Cubo
Urged by Britons

LONDON. July 4 (AP) Two
British newspapers today sug-
gested the United States act
cautiously in dealing with the
potentially explosive Cuban
crisis.
The conservative Daily Tele-
graph. in wondering what plans
Soviet Premier Nikita Khru-
shchev has for Communist in
tervention in Cuba, said that
in the meantime restraint will
continue to be the best policy
for the United States"
The Financial Times said a
mishandling of the Cuban af-
fair sis far more likely to pro-
woke a wave of anti i-Yankee
feeling throughout Latin Amer
lea than it is to open the door
to substantial Soviet penetra-
ton in the Caribbean"
The Times suggested that
Washington try to persuade
the Organization of American
States to take collective action
against the Cuban regime.

ping up their propaganda in
the United States.
A recent United States Gov
ernment check spotted about
6 million propaganda packages
entering this country from
Communist bloc nations in
1859.
The packages contained 10
million items of printed mat
ter, an 18 per cent increase
over the previous year and
nearly double the 1855 rate.
These figures do not include
Red material shipped in from
free countries. flrst-class mail
which Federal inspectors are
barred from checking, or the
sizable but unknown amount
of propaganda coming of
Communist presses within this
country.
Embassy Role
The Russian Embassy press
department churns out re-
leases for mailing to an esti-
mated 5000 persons deemed to
be opinion-molders.
The embassy also handles
the monthly publication of
the magazine "U.S.S.R.," whose
$4,000 copies are distributed
across the United States in ex-
change for the distribution of
a similar number of the United
States Governments America
Illustrated" magazine in the
Soviet Union.
"The Worker" a Communist
weekly newspaper published in
New York, has a circulation
reported at about $4,000. Some
1000 copies are air freighted
each week to Russia, where
they can be displayed as sam
pies of United States press
opinion.
Companion Weekly
A companion weekly, "Peo-
ple's World" is printed in San
Francisco. It's circulation is
said to be around 1000. The
Communist Party hopes to

Exports in May
Decline 3 Pct.

American exports dropped 8
per cent in May after expand
ing sharply earlier in the year,
the Census Bureau reported.
May exports of $1,764,0 900, 900
compared with April shipments
of 81 ,823,OOO,O0O
Compared with May, 1859,
exports in that month this
year were up IA per cent. Ship
mentS. abroad in May 1859
totaled 1851 100000.
Fort the first five months of
this year, exports totaled ST.
994, 100000. This was 81 per
cent higher than the $6,597,-
100000 reported during the
corresponding portion of 1853.
Normally May exports would
be expected to hold steady at
the April level. Of this years
April to May drop of $50 mil
lion, S38 million reflected a
decline in military shipments.
Trade experts at the COM
merce department speculated
that part Of the May decline
also could have stemmed from
a seasonal drop in cotton ship
mentS, which ran very heavy
earlier in the year.

Hope Fuoes for 6
On U. S. Plane
Lost Near Russiu

BODO. Norway. July 4 (AP),
Hope faded today for six
crewmen of the United States
Air Force reconnaissance plane
missing over the Arctic Ocean
as the search entered its third
day.
The airmen would have spent
more than so hours in the sea
if the plane went down near
the last known poSition-about
300 miles north of Russia S
Kola Peninsula.
Norwegian experts said that
a man could live only 20 to
80 minutes in the sea in these
waters, and even if the crew.
men managed to get into one
of the dinghieS their plane car
ried the period now passed
would be too long for survival.
The search continued through
the night with no results, and
the Norwegian rescue center at
Bodo Air Base co-ordinating
the operation said it would be
continued as long as the United
States Air Force thought it
necessary.
A yellow balloon was sighted
in the sea off the coast near
Tromsoe by a Finnish trawler.
But Norwegian experts said
the balloon was not likely TO
have anything to do with the
missing plane.
A Soviet cruiser reported Sat-
urday night it was on the way
to the scene where the plane
was believed lost. but the ship
has not been heard from since.

Mr.. Fishman found that of

a climb of nearly 40 per cent
over the 1858 rate.
Red China Material
While the propaganda volume
from the European Communist
countries dropped in 1859, he
said, the decline was more than
offset by an increase from Red
China.
Red Chinese shipments of the
magazine Chinese Pictorial"
rose nearly so per cent and
those of the magazine Chinese
Literature" by 100 per cent, his
study found.
Persons of Communist coun-
try origin are favorite target
Tor the incoming propaganda.
Mr.. Fishman figured the New
York control unit alone got is
million envelopes last year con-
tanning material designed to
persuade such people to go back
to their homelands.

.Khrushchev Looks
In Austria, Doesn't Buy

LINZ, AUSTRIA. JULY 4
(AP).-TouriSt Nikita Khrush-
chev went window shopping to-
day in this industrial center
but ne wasn't in the market to
buy anything.
The stocky Soviet Premier
made one of his informal walk
ing tours about the time the
shops were opening.
His first visit was to a coffee
house and he looked at the
speciality of the house-a cake
known locally as LINER Torte.
He asked how much it cost but
didn't order any.
After that he went over to a
table where Frau Wilhelm
Mayer was sitting with her 90
month-old son, Hansi, and
tickled the baby. A waitress
made Mr.. Khrushchev a cup of
Espresso coffee but he did not
drink it-m merely nodded his
head in thanks before leaving.
U. S. Auto Every Nice"
At an automobile sales agen-
cy, he said an American car on
display was very nice"
He asked the price but de-
clined an invitation to sit inside
it. I'm not shopping" he
joked with the saleman.
Crossing the street to an
other automobile agency which
sold German cars only, he told
the salesman he thought Rus
sian cars were just as good.
Mr.. Khrushehev is in the fifth
day Of a nine-day state visit to
Austria. His reception in Linz,
with its predominantly factory
working population, was warmer
than he had received in Vienna.
Cheered by Workers
AS he walked in a park, sew
eral workers broke through the
tight net Of Russian and Aus
trian police to shake his hand.

Murray's Letter
In his letter to the commits
sion, Chairman Murray said:
by this means the commit
tee expects to be in a position
to provide such guidance as
may be considered appropriate
to the commission and other
executive agencies and, at the
same time, to satisfy Congress
that the transition is made
with proper regard for appli-
cable law and sound manage
ment principles"
Chairman Murray and Mr..
Broyhill said they felt the
House committee should be
completely aware of the situa-
ton so that it can take what
ever action may prove neces-
sary in 1861.
csc Chairman Roger Jones
already is aware of the prob
lem, having brought it to the
attention of the White House
and various Federal agencies.

following specific items:
Il. What are the major laws,
executive orders and regula-
tions now existing which pro-

adverse action on the basis of
political consideration?
20. Where personnel adjust

sary in order to give an incom-

rights and projections are
available for the civilian staff
subject to reaSSignment or re-
lease?
"3. Are there particular
classes of employees who may
be peculiarly vulnerable as a
result of a change of admin
iStration? If so, are any special
measures necessary to insure
that they receive equitable
treatment?
"a. What means does the
commission have for anticipat-
ing and preventing improper
personnel actions or detecting
improper actions and effecting
necessary corrective action?
IS. Will there be need for
positive control of new employ
mentS until the necessary and
proper personnel adjustments
following the change in admin
istration have been accom-
pliShed? If so, does the commits
sion now have the necessary
to exercise such con-
troll?
