InCoust Golf

SAN JOSE, Calf, Nov. 8
(AP).-Two youngsters led is
par busters into the second
round Of the $4,000 Almaden
Open golf tournament today.
Larry Mowry and Johnny
Lott each shot 5-under-par 67s
yesterday on the long, tough
Almaden course.
Mowry, "a, is assistant pro
at Bonita, Calf. Sharp with his
irons all day, he didn't have a
bogey and didn't have a putt
longer than 6 feet.
Lotz, 81, one of three anna
teurs among the sub-par belters,
is a San Jose State College
student. He turned in five
brides and an eagle.
The eagle came on a 10
footer from the front of the
green on the par five, 540-yard
18th hole. He missed a hole
in-one by two inches on the
l70-yard 18th.
Defending Champion Charlie
Sifford of Los Angeles was one
Of five pros scoring SO, sharing
third spot with Jim Ferrier,
Jack O'Keefe, Chico Miartuz
and Bob McCallister.
The biggest names in the
field. Bob Rosburg and Ken
Ventura, were back in the
bushes. Rosburg's par 70 got
him into a 10-way tie for 18th
place. Ventura, winner here in
1859, had 70.

Fair Warninq
By Roosevelt
By STEVE HERSHEY
Star staff Writer


Roosevelt High School has
given Bell fair warning that its
recuperative powers make it a
team to reckon with the second
time around.
After absorbing a 1877 shell
lacking by Bell on october 20,
the Riders we're left a game
and a half behind the Vocats
in the Interhigh Leagues West
ern Division with only two left
to play. Today, as a result of
their second straight shutout
and their best offensive per-
formance of the season, the
Riders are in a first-place tie
with Bell in the West.
The Riders fifth shutout in
six league games, a smashing
29-0 victory over Dunbar yes
terday at Roosevelt, gives them
their best record since 1858,
when they finished with a 4-2
mark.
Roosevelt and Bell will meet
in a playoff game Monday
afternoon at Coolidge. The
VocatS lost their finale. l4-7,
to Coolidge, last Friday to help
set it up.
1T sure is going to be hard
to get these kids up again by
Monday" joey Kaufman,
Roosevelt coach, said after yes
terday's game. II wish some
thing could be done to move
the game back a couple of
days"
Hardy Pearce, the Interhigh
League director, who was at
the game, said afterwards that
it is impossible to hold the
contest on any other day be-
cause the championship game,
between the East and the West
Division winners, has to be
played Friday morning, No
vember 10, which is a Govern
ment holiday.
IF Mondays game was
moved back, it wouldn't give
the winner enough rest before
the championship game +"
Pearce explained.
Roosevelt's biggest point ex-
plosion of the season didn't
fully develop until the last
quarter, when Quarterback
Wendell Hughes passed II
yards to End Boyce Smith for
one touchdown and two poor
Dunbar punts from the end
zone were downed on the Dun
bar seven and nine yard lines
to set up two other Rider scores.
The winners were a frus-
trated bunch in the first half,
losing the ball on downs twice
inside Dunbar 20-yard line.
The Riders finally scored
with four minutes remaining in
the half. but not before Tony
Cont, their powerful 205-pound
Ffullback, was stopped three
times inside the two-yard line.

BY CARL SELL

Bethesda Chevy Chase High
School is bearing down on the
Montgomery County football
championship in its final two
games. and the key to the
Barons chances will be the per-
formances Of two top-notch
guards, Tom Folliard and
George Ames.
Both boys have the creden-
tials to insure that they will
do their job and then some.
Folliard. a linebacker on de-
fense, is credited with So in
dividual tackles and "a assists

fensive tackle, has brought
down 80 runners by himself

ginia Episcopal.
Coach Buck Jones of B-CC
rates Folliard and Ames as two
of the best guards in the area.
He points out that much Of
the Barons' offensive success

The Redskins probably won't
have John Paluck in the line
up when they face the Giants
at New York Sunday. but that
doesn't worry coach Bill Nc
Peak as much as not having
Jimmy Kerr.
Paluck, recalled to military
service this week. hasn't been

planned to ask for a weekend

Kerr, undergoing treatment for
q knee injury, says he'll be
ready to play. but he's been

Mean John" in Gene Cronin,
with Don Lawrence to give him
q breather. And the Redskins
defense against a running at

Football League.
Their defense against pass

feature the tricky shotgun Of

ruined more than one team

NATO:
Anew Look

President Kennedy on
Wednesday reiterated United
States support for the North
Atlantic Treaty Organization
and named an advisory group
headed by former Secretary Of
State Dean Acheson to re-study
NATO aims, needs and Organi-
zatiOn.
When, in 1949, the nations Of
Western Europe allied themselves
in NATO, there existed a very
different situation from the one
that faces President Kennedy and
the Western allies today.
The Soviet Union in that year
was not yet nuclear power. The
military science Of missiles and
rockets was not far advanced be-
yond the World War II German

from the shattered ruins Of the
long war against Hitler. feared
a new onslaught-this time from
Stains mighty legionS in the
East.
Only an expert in military and
diplomatic chess could assoc the
role NATO has played in the en-
suing years. There can be no
doubt today, however. that NATO
needs a streamlining. reorgan-
ization, and basic reappraisal
Of its goals, its methods, and its
future. ''

One British diplomat in Wash

situation aptly: "Khrushchev and
his chaps" he observed. "have to
predict the result Of policy plan
ming that proceeds from such
brilliant but often contradictory
approaches as Acheson, Steven
son, Kennan and Rusk have so
plainly expressed in the past"
The remark pointed up the fact
that Mr.. Kennedy, in choosing his
top foreign policy aides, picked a
blue-ribbon panel indeed-a panel
that is comprised Of forceful in
dividuals, but certainly not a panel
that can be expected to fit into q
mold.
Diplomats from nations Of the
socialist camp" in Washington
are already keenly curious as to
the kind Of foreign policy omelet
that will be produced from SO
many differing eggs. They look
with hopefulness on some ap-
pointments. with downright dis
may on others, and like the rest

that morale among the troops
overseas had nosedived. Before
he left the White House, Mr.. Ell
senhower cushioned the shock by
reducing the number Of depend
entS affected.
On February /. Mr.. Kennedy
moved the rest Of the way. He
rescinded the Eisenhower order
on dependents completely, ex-
planning that Defense Secretary
Mcnamara had found other ways
Of saving equivalent numbers of
dollars expended abroad by mill
tary personnel and their families.
The WV had urged this on out
going Defense Secretary Gates
who, though sympathetic. did not
embrace the suggestion wholly in
a last-day-in-office recommended
ton to Mr.. Eisenhower.
The promised Kennedy program
on halting the gold flow and end
the dollar gap was disclosed on

1t seems to many observers,
however. that the basic problem
grows out Of our foreign policy
our programs to aid underde-
veloped countries and our allies
and support our military forces
abroad. Our exports were q
healthy 25 per cent above our
imports last year. yet we lost more
than SO billion in gold.
The real solution. one on which
the Kennedy administration is
working with zeal and zest, lies
in promoting cooperation among
the United States and our major
allies (who now are running sur
pluses in their balance Of pay
ments) in sharing the costs of aid

government headed by secession
ist Moishe Tshombe told the world
that the redoubtable Patrice Lu-
mumba and two other prisoners
had escaped.
Despite the repeated insistence
Of the Katanga regime that the
fiery ex-Premier had indeed fled,
the belief was almost universal
that the escape" story meant in
fact Lumumba funeral.
Whether he escaped or has been
killed, Lumumba remains the To-
cal point Of civil war in the al
ready-chaotic Congo. He COM
mands the loyalty Of at least one
third Of the sundered nation, and
his followers are determined and
jealous.
