Olympic Games Open Thursday In Australia MELBOURNE (UP)—Fears that Melbourne's rainiest, chilliest spring in recent years would prevent wholesale record-smashing in the Olympic games were eased today with the long-awaited prediction of “warm, sunny weather” for Thursday’s grand opening. The news came as music to the ears of track and field athletes attempting to reach the peak of condition in weather that forced them to stay bundled up. , It came as an added incentive for the workmen who are making feverish efforts to have the main stadium ready in time for the opening ceremonies of the games at 3 p.m. Thursday (midnight, Wednesday, EST). Hammers and saws still are pounding and one worker predicted, “the workmen probably will be going out the back door when the visitors walk in the front.” Temperatures Cool American track and field coaches .have diplomatically reframed from saying much about the weather, but the athletes have found it difficult to tune up their muscles in temperatures like today's 43.5 degrees. Head track Coach Jim Kelly, in fact, insisted, “the weather is no different here than it is at home. Our team is coming along fine and we expect our athletes to do well. We will win some and we will lose some. Certain members of our team are sharper than others and we make no excuses for the less sharp ones.” Kelly admitted, however, that 400-meter runner Jim Lea "doesn’t look as though he will be ready." And he voiced regret that he is unable to substitute Leainon King of Lz>s Angeles for one of the other three starters in the 100 meters. King, who is along as fourth man on the 400-meter relay team, is the sharpest of all the sprinters at the present time. Not Complaining King said he wasn't “complaining" about not getting into the 100 meters because "1 didn’t have it when it counted.” He predicted the throe-ILS. entries — Bobby Mormw.

The winners were as follows: Expert — Rex Werst, first (turkey) ; Dr. Robert Boze, second; Sheldon Daniels, third. Bowman — John Winkler, first (turkey); Bob Laßrun, second; Jack Macklin, third. Archer—Deight Whitacre, first (turkey); Don Kimpel, second; Dan Shackley, thy-d. Novice — Windy Beer, first (ham); Dick Irwin, second; Frank Sardella, third. For the lowes.t score of the day and consolation prize. Chuck Reed, was awarded two cans of cranberry sauce. Cards And Phillies Make Player Trade PHILADELPHIA (UP) — The Philadelphia Phillies today traded Del Ennis, their best home run producer of all time, to the St. Louis Cardinals in exchange for slugging outfielder Rip Repulski and utility infielder Bobby Morgan. Ennis, .31-year-old native Phila- * dßipteftm wha -hm -playLW- the entire 11 years of his major league career with die Phillies, broke a record set by Chuck Klein in the 1930 s when he hit 26 homers last season for a lifetime total of 259. Klein hit 243. The broad - shouldered Ennis drove in at least 100 runs in five , straight seasons prior to 1956, when he batted across 95 with a .260 batting average. His best

« home run”output was in 1950, when he led the Phils to their first National League pennant in 35 years with 31 round trippers. He was estimated to be earning about $30,000 a year with the Phils, second, only to Robin Roberts, and was one of the most popular players on the club during the post- , war era. 2 Repulski, at 28, is considered one of the league’s most promising right-handed sluggers. A native of Sauk City, Minn., the strapping outfielder hit .277 last season and .270 the year before, banging out 23 home runs in the 1955 season. He hit .283 in the 1954 season with 19 homers and .275 in 1953, 'with 15 home runs. Morgan, from Oklahoma City, played with the Phillies in 1954, '55 and part of last season before being traded to St. Louis in May. He broke into the majors with the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1950. His highest major league batting mark was .262 with the Phils in 135 games during the 1954 season. He also hit 14 homers that year, tops in his career. Sugar Hart Winner Over West Indian NEW YORK (UP) — Welterweight Garnett (Sugar) Hart of Philadelphia, who practically clinched “rookie -of - the - year” honors with his 10thstraight victory Monday night, was offered another TV fight at St. Nicholas Arena today and a main event at Madison Square Garden. Slender, 20-year old Hart — who looks like another Sugar Ray Robinson — tagged West Indian Hector Constance With the first kayo of his 44-fight career in the 10th round of their TV bout at St. Nick’s Monday night.

Tennessee Is Rated Second , To Oklahoma NEW YORK (UP) - The race for the national college football , championship tightened today as Oklahoma, with its record string of 38 straight victories, lost some of its lead over runner-up Tennessee in the weekly ratings of the United Press Board of Coaches. Rose Bowl - bound lowa jumped . up to the No. 4 ranking behind t Texas A&M; Miami (Fla) advanced four notches to sixth i place; Minnesota vaulted eight . places to No. 7, and Syracuse t moved up to a tie for 10th with ; Michigan in this week’s most im- , protant changes among the leadl ers. ' With two weeks remaining to decide the national championship, Oklahoma’s lead over Tennessee was reduced from 28 to only 12 points. Twenty-four of the 35 leading coaches who make up the United Press Rating Board picked the Sooners tops in the nation; Tennessee was the choice of nine I coaches. In points, Oklahoma’s i margin was 325 to 313. Sooners Have Two Left The Sooners, seeking the national crown for the second year in a row, play Nebraska at home next Saturday and then wind up their . seasn at Oklahoma A&M. Tennessee, which like Oklahoma has an 8-0 season record, is at home against Kentucky Saturday and at Vanderbilt the following week. The Vols are almost sure bets to play in the Sugar Bowl. Oklahoma now has led the ratings eight of the nine weeks this season yielding first place to Michigan State four weeks ago. Texas A&M, which has clinched at least a tie for the Southwest Conference championship but is > ineligible for the Cotton Bowl, and "once - beaten lowa each received place vote this week, The Texas Aggies' total of 238 points was 15 more than the Hawkeyes’. Georgia Tech Fifth Georgia Tech retained fifth place with 214 points; Miami sixth with 117, followed by Minnesota with 100, Michigan State with 75, Oregon State with 57, and Syracuse and Michigan with 54 each. Michigan State fell four places after its narrow defeat at the hands of Minnesota; Oregon State, the Pacific Coast Conference’s Rose Bowl fell one notch; Syracuse - moved up one place to tie Michigan, which dropped-from ninth. , Points are distributed on the ’ basis of 10 for a first-place vote, . nine for a second, and so on down to one for a lOth-place vote. Ohio State, in the top 10 for the first eight w-eeks of the season, fell from sixth place to 13th fol- ’ lowing its setback by lowa. The Big Ten Conference still was represented by four teams in this week’s “top 11.” Pittsburgh headed the second 10 group in 12th place, followed in order by Ohio State, Navy, Florida. Yale, Texas Christian and Wyoming. There was a four-team tie for 19th place among Southern California, Penn State, Purdue and Baylor. Duke was the only other team to receive a vote. Rules Are Revised For Batting Title CHICAGO (W ■— Major and minor league hitters vying for the individual batting crown will get a break next season under a new provision adopted by organized baseball's Playing Rules Committee. The change, adopted Monday at the committee’s two-day meeting tn the American League office here, eliminates the total times at ba (requirement for winning the batting title and replaces it with one crediting a batter with total appearances at the plate. The new provision sets up a formula under which a major league player will qualify for the championship if he appears at the plate 477 times during the season, regardless of the number of times he is credited with an at bat. Previously, a player had to have 400 official times at bat to receive consideration for the batting championship. Committee chairman James T. Gallagher of Chicago said both the American and National league offices recommended the change and it previously was approved by the Scoring Rules committee. Approved by the Playing Rules committee makes it official, beginning next season. Gallagher said it has been felt for some time that the at bat requirement, which has been in effect about 20 years, was unfair to some of the top hitters because they frequently would draw intentional walks, thereby depriving them of an official at bat. A recent example of this was the case of Boston Red Sox slugger Ted Williams who in 1955 compiled a .356 batting average. However, he was credited with only 320 official times at bat and the individual American League batting title went to Detroit's Al KaJißg who hit 340 in 588 at hats - s If yon have something co sen ot rooms for rent, try a Democrat Want Ad.

First Os Hungarian Refugees To U. 5. 41 Leaves Austria For United States VIENNA — The first of 5,000 anti-Communist Hungarians promised freedom in the United States flew westward today to a new life. Forty-one men, women and children of different religious faiths departed from Vienna aboard an airliner. They left behind a homeland firm in Communist clutches. The Flying Tiger Line DC4 headed for Munich, Germany, to pick up 19 more refugees before flying on to the United States. It is scheduled to arrive at the McGuire Ah- Force Base, in New Jersey Wednesday morning. Before boarding the plane, the mixed group of Protestant, Catholic, Lutheran and Jewish refugees gathered around the tail of the chartered transport and sang their national anthem, “God Bless The Hungarians.” Their voices rang out clearly across the freezing, suddenly-si-lent Schwechat Airfield. It was a last defiant salute by the patriots forced by Red terror to flee their beloved homeland. One of the refugees was Imre Hardies, 16, who successfully claimed American citizenship on the grounds his father was born in Buffalo, N.Y. Imre, crippled since birth, was pushed across the Iron Curtain in a wheel chair. His father, Emepca, his mother and his 13-year-old sister also were aboard the first “freedom lift” plane.

French Boxer Wins Over Tiger Jones PARIS, 'France (UP) —Charles Humez, France's most popular fighter since Marcel Cerdafi, hoped today his jevenge victory over tough Ralph (Tiger) Jones of Yonkers, N. Y., would earn him a longsought crack aj the world middleweight title. The courageous boxer - puncher from the Flanders coal mines rallied strongly to gain a 10 - round decision over Jones Monday night before 13,000 fans at the Palais des Sports. The best reason why vegeables should be washed and refrigerated immediately is that when kept at room temperature, some vegetable lose anywhere from 10 to 47 per cent of their vitamin C in only 48 hours; in spinach, green beans, and peas, 30 to 50 per cent of the vitamin C vanishes in two days, and all of it in a week. Odors on Hands To remove unpleasant odors from the hands, dash a spoonful of sugar on a hot stove and hold the hands over the fumes. Ground coffee answers the same purpose.
