Seek Freedom For Americans In China Secrecy Wraps On Attempts By U. S. WASHINGTON, UP —The state department today drew tight security wraps around its attempts to free 32 Americans jailed in Communist China. A spokesman said the United States will consider every opportunity to free the Americhns, but he declined to talk about what is actually being done. "We will give careful consideration to every opportunity that presents itself in seeking the release of American citizens from imprisonment in China.” The spokesman made the statement when asked whether U. S. representatives have contacted Red Chinese officials at the Geneva conference to learn more about, the disappearance of three Americans more than a year ago in Far Eastern water. A Red spokesman at Geneva recently admited for the first tiifte that the trio is in Chinese Communist hands charged with violating Chinese law. They are among 32 U. S. citizens jailed on the Chinese mainland. The three are Richard Applegate, National Broadcasting Co. correspondent and .former United Press reporter; Donald Dixon, International News Service correspondent, and Ben Krasner, a merchant marine captain. They were seized by. a Chinese Communist gunboat more than a year ago while sailing a yacht off Hong Kong. x First Expense Lists Filed By Candidates The first accounts of election expenses have been filed with Ed Jaberg, county clerk, it was announced today.

Indianapolis Couple Found Shot To Death Murder And Suicide Theory Is Advanced Indianapolis UP — Jose Mauras, 28, and his wife, Edna Lea, 27, were found shot to death Tuesday in what police believed was murder and suicide. Mrs. Rosie Hogston, 47, Mrs. Mauras’ mother, said she discovered .the bodies in the couple's small apartment when she went there to see her daughter. The woman’s body was lying on a bed, her husband’s on the floor. A revolver yas found near the bodies. Dr. Robert J. Rohn, deputy coroner, said a preliminary investigation indicated Mauras shot his wife, then himself. Mrs. Hogston said the couple argued often and Mauras told her Monday night he had threatened to kill his wife. ■Mrs. Hogston told detectives .Mauras had been despondent since his recent return from Puerto Rico where he attended bis grandmother’s funeral. CAPEHART AND (Coßtlawed From Paste, One) second district chairman, is a part of the Craig machine." That indicated they believed Cast was on their side until after the meeting was over. The telegram issued over the senators’ name was bitter. “We have never seen anything like this in the history of Indiana politics,” it said. “It was integrity and loyalty to the high principle of a Republican party versus corruption, bribery, threats, coercion and intimidation. \”Since so many fine, .loyal people have stood up in ..this very close upntest we see no further good to be gained by having these wonderful people threatened, coerced, intimidated, browbeaten and tortured. “Therefore, we are recommending to all of our loyal friends that the Republican banner in Indiana fly under the leadership of George Craig, Dale Brown, Roy Conrad, Albert Wedeking, Frank Millis and Little Doc Sherwood and men of their ilk. “This statement is Issued at this time because we now know that Al Cast . . . is a part of the Craig machine. Governor Craig’s wishes-’ to ‘control the wreckage’ are now granted. We stand now as always ready to work for and with all loyal Republicans for the success of the party. } and the good of the American people.” [“MAJOR AG UE “ 4 W L Pct. G.B.

Today's Sport Parade (Reg. U. S. Pat. Oft.) By Oscar Fraley 1— < 0 NEW YORK. UP — The departurefrom the majors of Johnny Lindell was an old story In the big leagues of baseball but one which always has its pathetic inflections. Johnny actually was luckier than most. He had two separate careers under the big top, the first as an outfielder who knew World Series glory with the Yankees and the second as a pitcher. It is those memories which will keep him going as he travels back down the minor league hill. There are a'lot of the old heroes out there in the “bushes" who knew the cheer* of the big league fans and once were the center of Rational attention. Often people wonder why they do it. and generally the answer is unvaried. * Sure, some of them stick with it to eat. But all of them play out the string as long as possible because they love baseball and can't get it out of their blood. Even the storied failures hope that somehow, someday, they’ll make it back to the big time. A Step Away Many of them are actually but a step away. In majority of cases the road is running the other way, but they refuse to believe it. Those with the • highest hopes are the crew of former major leaguers playing in the larger minor league circuits such as the Pacific Coast league, the International League and the American Association. ” Take a look at the Pacific Coast league, as example. Out at San Diego there,* Dick Sisler, who won a pennant for the Phillies in 1950. playing side by side with Bob Elliott, once the National League’s most valuable player.. Teammates at Sacramento are Bob Dillinger, once ranked as one of the finest infielders in the big leagues, and two who had their shot with the Cardinals, Tommy Glavlano and Nippy Jones. Remember Dino Restelli, who hit those sensational home runs for Pittsburgh one year. He's at Portland, along with slender Eddie Basinski. who gave the Dodgers a war time lift. Dodger fans also remember Johnny (Spider) Jorgensen and Gene Hermanski —out at

Oakland fcith Chuck Dressen, another who drew his Flatbush walking papers. And still hoping at San Francisco is big George Vico, who never quite lived up to expectations. Had It Once Maybe you recall when Red Munger pitched a World Series win for the Cards against the Yanks. Well, he’s at Hollywood, along with Mel Queen. And Joe Hatten and Cal McLish perform with anticipation at Lb* Angeles. So it goes, with rangy Clint Hhrtung, Ray Noble and Saul Rogovin at Havana and Ted Wilks at Indianapolis. Everywhere you look in the minors you'll find those who had it once, and anticipate having it again. The odds are with those who shifted' to the managerial side. Men like Dressen at Oakland, ,G er ~ ry Priddy at 'Seatile. Whit Wyatt at Atlanta. Dixie Walker at Houston. George Selkirk at Toledo, Tommy Holmes at Elmira, Clyde Kluttz at Savannah, Dick Siebert away down at Litchflelu of the Western Minnesota League and Pepper Martin, the old wild boss of the Osage, at Miami Beach. Those are the ones who have picked the easiest way back to the big top. For most of the others it’s a dreain—rather than a hope. Making golf balls radioactive so they could be found in the rough with a Geiger counter sounds like a good idea. But it won t work says the National Geographci Society. If the ball could be spotted at any distance, it would probably be too “hot” for the golfer to use safely.
