Casey Aiming As His Fifth Straight Flag ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. UP —Old Casey Stengel, shooting for an unprecedented fifth consecutiy® American League pennant; is sneering at the experts who wonder whether Father Tijpe is catching up with some of the key Yankee plakers. At least outwardly, Casey isn't . worried and that’s probably bad hews for the other seven clubs in the league. pl haven't seen any signs of old age on this team of mine, for if I detected any, I would have made some changes,” Stengel explained. “After ail, my team won Athe pennant and “the World Series the hard way laMj year — on the road. How* eould I give up on a club like that* Mpybe time will prove I’m wrong in my thinking \ and that I should have made sdme c hanges, but 4 don’t think it will.” Stengel figures he has the best

Purdue Votes ■ J ' ■ 1 For Renewal Os Rose Bowl • ' \ 1 .4 . 1 • LAFAYETTE, Ind. UP — The Rose Bowl contract between the Big Ten and Pacific Coast Conferences apparently was secure today for another'four years.’ The Purdue faculty Tuesday voted, 185-70, in favor of renewing tt?e pact for another three years, ex- * tending to the game Jan.<l, 1957. The current contract calls/for one more game next New’ Year’s Day. i Shortly before the Purdue vote; lit was announced that the lowa faculty, voting nearly a month j ago. had favored renewal of the j agreement also. Purdue thus was believed to be the sixth school in the conference ’t,o vote in favor of renewal. Earlier, Illinois and Ohio State announced they would vote for continuation of jthe pact. , % Michigan and Indiana* though ' they have made rio announcement of their vote, were regarded as pertain to favor Another [renewal, jlbsth vdted for the agreement iwnen it was first made Sept. 1, 1946. and again wheri it was renewed for three years on May 25. 1951. ' The other four schools, Minnesota, Michigan State. Wisconsin and Northwestern, have announced they would oppose renewal of the Contract. The conference will vote' officially at the regular spririg meeting at Champaign, 111., May 28-3‘).,-However, it appeared that a sixfoifr vote in favor of renew’al was assured. Purdue’s vote in favor of v the agreement wag a switch from its position in 1951. At that time it apposed renewal together with Min niesota, /-Wisconsin and Northwestern. However, the pact was approved by a six-four margin. Purdue voted in favor of the contract when it was signed initially, fbr five years, in 1946. Opposed, then were Minnesota, Illinois and northwestern. The Purdue vote was taken only after a voice vote apparently showed a .majority opposed to approval of the recommendation for‘ renewal made by the faculty athletic committee. President Frederick L. Hovde. presiding oyer the meeting, then called for a count. Hovde sairf he was “very pleased personally” by the vote. VAN FLEET IN (Continued From r«Ke One) is the principal point that I want to make.” He said a greater supply 61 ammunition would have allowed “preventive” tactics. With a greater supply, he said, U. N. forces could “seize the initiative” from thp enemy. him down ‘ and keep him from staging raids agairist Van Fleet said that after stopping the Communist drive in May, 1951, he redpmmended to Ridgway a counter drive to be followed up with an amphibious assault on thQ east coast. He has said he believes such an offensive would have ended the war with a U. N. victory. But his proposal “was stopped,” he said today. “What stopped it?” Byrd asked, j “As far as I know, General RidgeWay,” Van Fleet said. . ■ Subcommittee chairman Margaret Chase Smith R-Me. said in an opening statement — read before television cameras in the crowded hearing room —that she has asked the Pentagon for a “complete file”, of official army ifnesAages on the ammunition shortage. \ Mrs, Smith described as “gratifying” recent reports from the Pentagon and the white Hoase tiiat, the shortage “no longer exists” in Korea, She said those reports do' not change’ the determination of the subcommittee to prevent any recurrence of the shortage.

Slight Increase In Prices To Farmers First Upward Move For Seven Months WASHINGTON, UP —Administration officials took some encouragement today from the first upward movement in farm prices in seven months. . Howevpr, agriculture department experts pointed out that the one-third of one percent rise in prices, received by farmers during the month March, 15, ivas matched by an equal rise in farm living , and production costs.j As a result, farmers are still in the worst economic pinqh they have felt sihee just before World War 11. J Moreover, a further decline in; cattle prices,— about five percent from mid-February to mid March —r maintained a long-time problem oh that big front. The experts guessed that there will continue to be small fluctuations up or down in the general level of farm prices until the size of this year’s crops can be accurately determined. Farmers March 1 planting intentions indicated ovj erall output bigger than last 'year’s near-record production; but a lot could' happen before harvest time. A report Tuesday showed prices received by farmers on March 15 averaged 164 percent above' the 1910-14 average. ' Prices paid out as living! and production expenses are 181 percent above the five year base period. That’s where the pinch cotnes in. Of-31 major crops, 24 were selling at prices below the so-called parity lelvel. Parity is the |>rice ’ calculated to give the farmer a fair return on his crop in relation to the price of things he must buy. In spite of an increase- in hog prices, the big drop in calves and cattle prices pushed the index of ineat animal prices down a little ov£r one percent during ttye past month. Beef cattle prices, at $17.00 a 100 pounds compared with SIB.BO a month ago, were 84 percent of “parity” — well below the $27.50 a 100 pounds averaged a year ago, ‘ which was'l3o percent of parity. Farmers prices on dairy pror ducts fell - three percent during the 1 month apd averaged nine percent below a year earlier as milk output in February hit the highest I level on record for the month.

UP —President Eisehhower t o d a y nominated Judge Stanley Nelson Barnes of the California supreme court to be assistant attorney general ip charge of the anti-jtrust division.
