If the Milwaukee Braves
figured they'd had their fill
Of joey Jay when they swapped
him to Cincinnati, they must
be up to here with the young
highlander now.
joey had only a PAPA record
for seven years with Milwau-
kee, and he never won more
than nine in any one season
before last winters deal.
But joey became a 1O-game
winner and beat Milwaukee a
second time last night, pairing
with reliever Bill Henry for
an 11-hit shutout as Cincinnati
shook a slump and cooled off
the Braves, 40.
Milwaukee was the hottest
club in the National League,
winning eight of 10, before
Cincinnati came to town for a
four-game series. But the
first-place Reds, after losing
three in a row at Chicago,
bounced back to form and re-
tanned a 21a-game lead with
their ninth victory in IL games
with the fifth place Braves.
Dodgers Regain Second
The Los Angeles Dodgers re-
gained second place by beating
Philadelphia, 1916, while Pitts
burgh dropped San Francisco
back to third with a 4-3 deci-
sion over the Giants. st. Louis
checked the Chicago Cubs, 11-4.
The Reds, who began the
season with a 21-57 record
against Warren SPAIN, beat
the Braves Southpaw ace for
the third time in three deci-
sions this year. And it was a
two-run single by Jay that
wrapped up a three-run fifth
inning against SPAIN (8-9),
who was trying for his 297th
big league victory.
Jay Q0-4, a loser in only
one Of his last 10 decisions,
walked three and gave up all
II Milwaukee hits. He struck
out six. The Braves, who had
hit home runs in each of their
last 10 games, left II runners
stranded. Henry got the last
out, retiring Ed Mathews with
two men on base.
Pirates Rally in Ninth
The third-place Pirates, win
ming three in a row for the
first time in more than a
month, came from behind in
the ninth against the Giants
on an error by Willie McCovey
and a two-run, two-out single
by Bill Virdon. Roberto Gle
mente drove in the first two
Buc runs off loser Mike Nc
Cormick CD with a triple
and a homer. Elroy Face (4-3)
was the winner in relief, after
giving up the Giants go-ahead
run in the top of the ninth.
Willie Mays doubled and
scored twice for the Giants,
coming across with the tying
run in the seventh on Jim
Davenport's sacrifice fly.
Willie Davis belted a pair of
triples and Daryl Spencer hit
a clinching, two-run homer for
the Dodgers as they built an
81 lead in 512 inning at Phila-
delphia. Stan Williams (7-D
was the winning pitcher, but
needed relief from Dick Farrell
when the Phils scored five runs
in the sixth. Jim Owens DID
was the loser.
The Cardinals beat Jim Brew
er (0-3) with a five-run first
inning capped by rookie Jim
Schaffer's first major league
homer-a grand slam. Bob
LilliS then lined a three-run
double as the Cards got their
other six in the eighth. South
paw Ray Sadecki (7-D was
the winner, giving up the Cubs
runs on two-run homers by
Jerry Kindall and Billy Will

In Bogota, Colombia, last
Sunday, Mr.. Kennedy and
Colombian President Alberto
Lleras Camargo conferred on
strategy for trying to win wider
support among the other Amer
icas for joint action against
further Communist penetration
from Cuba.
Colombia sponsored a reso-

the Organization Of American
States convoking an inter-
American foreign ministers
conference next month to deal
with threats to the peace"
posed by the Communist take
over in Cuba under Fidel
Castro.
Only a bare two-thirds ma
jority of the American repub-
lies supported the conference
call. Argentina abstained on the
December 4 vote.
Only yesterday in Washing
ton the OAS voted a 12-day
postponement of the confer
ence, now set for January %
in Punta del Este, Uruguay.
Mr.. Kennedy was reported to
have joined Colombian Presi-
dent Lleras in supporting post
ponement of the conference
from the original date of Janu-
airy 10 in order to give more
time to seek a wider base of
support.
Mr.. Frondizi has been insist
ing that proposals for joint OAS
action to punish or isolate the
Castro regime in Cuba would
bring a tragic split among the
American republics.
For his part, the Argentine
President is expected to try to
persuade Mr.. Kennedy to back
away from any stern measures
against Cuba in order to pre-
serve the facade of inter-Ameri-
can unity.
It is doubtful if either Pres
ident will be able to change
the others mind. But ap-
parently both think it is worth
a try-and that it at least
will be worthwhile to get a
clearer understanding of their
differing views.

temperatures and pressures in
side the cavity were nowhere
near as high as had been an
ticipated, DR.. Kelly said. He
explained that this was un-
doubtedly due to the leakage of
steam out of the vertical shaft.
1t had been expected that d
spherical cavity about 200 feet
in diameter would be created.
Indications are that the hole
is somewhat larger than this,
but probably not as big as 230
feet. which was the largest
estimate of it's size.
Scientists had hoped that a
temperature of about 800 de-
grees centigrade or about 1,400
Fahrenheit would be attained
and maintained inside the
cavity. This apparently is not
the case, DR.. Kelly said. Re-
mote control temperature
measurements indicate that the
heat inside the cavity is above
the boiling point of water. but
how much above is still not
determined, he added.
The chief purpose Of Project
Gnome was to learn whether
electrical power can be gener-
ated by pumping water into an
atom-created cavity. trans
forming it there to steam, and
then using the steam to run a
dynamo.
I'VE certainly won't get the
kind of data we had hoped for
because we don't have high
enough temperatures and pres
sures." DR.. Kelly said.
However, we can still do
some kinds of heat-transfer ex-
periments. And the very fact
that we have a cavity is most
encouraging"
Another purpose Of Gnome
was quantity production of
subatomic particles called neu-
irons, which are created in
astronomical numbers in a nu-
clear explosion. DR.. Kelly said
early indications are that fewer
neutrons were detected than
had been estimated.
. This may turn out to be a
little surprise" he said.
Plans for further experiments
: in the So-called "PlowShare'
series of peaceful nuclear blasts
: are under way. However, DR..
Kelly said that no further ex-
perimentS had been specifically
:. scheduled.
