Miss Indiana Wins Preliminary Test Goshen Girl Wins v Swim Suit Contest ATLANTIC CITY, N. J. (UPl“Miss Indiana", the girl whose dimensions come dpsest to being those of the composite “Miss America”, emerged today as the winner of a preliminary bathing suit competition in the 31st running of the national beauty classsic. Anita Marie Hursh, 19, daughter of Dr. and Mrs. Charles W. Hursh, of Goshen, Ind., won a trophy, a SI,OOO scholarship and top billing in the swim suit division in the second night’s judging in the 31st Miss America Pageant, “Miss Connecticut", Billie June Turner, of New Canaan, Conn,, whose widowed mother runs ‘ a pastry shop, won in the talent division Thursday night. She scored with a ballet dance to the music of “Les Sylphides.” Miss Turner, 20, hopes to study dancing in New York with the SI,OOO scholarship she won. Eventually she wants a career on Broadway or in television. Anita, a brown-eyed brunette, measures a trim 34%, 24 , 35, is five feet six and one-half inches tall and weighs 120. She nearly matches the composite of the 30 Miss Americas to date. The composite is 19 years old, has brown hair and blue eyes, weighs 124 pounds, stands five feet, six and one-fourth inches tall and measures 34%-24%-35. “Is it me?” she asked when it was announced that she was the second bathing suit winner. The first was Sandra Lee Jennings, Riverside, Calif., who was chosen Wednesday night. A third will be chosen tonight. “This is wonderful. I never thought I could do anthing like this,’’ Miss Hush said. Miss Turner could hardly believe her good fortune. "I just didn't think it was possible,” she said. Anita appeared early in the evening in a white ball gown and pendant earrings. When her award was announced, she appeared in the same dress, but with a pink cummerbund. The current Miss America, Marilyn Van Derbur, kised Miss Hursh on the cheek as she handed her the golden swimming suit trophy. Anita’s father tried to take movies of the presentation but he said he was quite upset. “I’m still shaking,” he said. “I took movies, but they’ll kid me about them when I get home, I was shaking so.” Sneak Preview Os Chryslers Thursday New Conveniences, Economy Stressed MIAMI BEACH, Fla. (UPI) — Chrysler Corp, has given notice it is relying on new conveniences and economy instead of new styling to sell its 1959 cars. The smallest of the auto industry’s "big three” displayed its five 1959 lines—Plymouth, Dodge, De Soto. Chrysler and Imperial—at a special sneak preview for 350 newsmen here Thursday. The new cars, which will be unveiled to the public about mid-October, all retained the dart-like silhouette of the 1958 line despite numerous styling changes designed to attract new buyers in 1959. L.L. Colbert, Chrysler president, told the newsmen he was convinced Chrysler’s 1958 styling would become the standard of the industry this year. But the basic silhouette of the 1959 Chrysler lines was so similar to the corporation’s 1958 lines that Colbert felt it necessary to stress the amount of change that had been made. He said 30,132 new body and chassis parts will be included in the 1959 lines, 81 per cent of them in styling. The Chrysler president listed fenders, hoods, fins, grilles, lighting assemblies and larger windshields and rear windows among the styling changes on the 1959 Chrysler lines. While emphasizing style changes; however, Colbert made it clear Chrysler would rely on new swivel seats, incerased head and leg room, new electronic gadgets and increased fuel economy .so attract new customers. Filling the Gap CHARDON, Neb.—(UPl) — An attorney representing Lester Bissonette on charges of escaping from a city work detail here discovered there was no law against breaking out of jail. Bissonette was freed and officials hurried through an ordinance to plug the loophole.

sl2 Billion Deficit For This Nation Spending Record To Be Major Issue In Election Campaign WASHINGTON (UPD — Democrats are ready with their answer to Republican charges that a free spending Democratic Congress has saddled the government with a record peacetime deficit. They will say, "blame the recession, not us,” and support their answer with testimony from one of the chief spokesmen for the Eisenhower administration. The Democratic argument is that the business slump is bringing a drastic cut in expected tax income and that the fall-off in revenue is causing most of the estimated 12-billion-dollar deficit. When President Eisenhower presented his budget last January, it was approximately in balance at 74 billion dollars for this fiscal year, which began July 1. The Treasury now estimates [spending up about five billion from that figure and revenue down about seven billion, with a resulting 12 billion deficit. With plenty of help from the President, the GOP has made it clear that the spending record of the Democratic - controlled Congress will be a big issue in the 1958 election campaign. Their argument is that the Democrats can’t be trusted with the taxpayers’ money. Anderson Blames Decession The Democrats believe there is still political mileage to be gained from the recession itself, since it came under a Republican administration. Now they will enjoy pointing to it as a major cause for the Treasury’s troubles. They can quote testimony from Secretary of the Treasury Robert B. Anderson before the Senate Finance Committee last month. He was being questioned by Sen. Paul H. Douglas D-111. Douglas led Anderson over the ground about the changes in budget estimates since last January and referred to the combined twoyear deficit of about 15 billion dollars for the past and current fiscal years. Then he put this question: ”... Ten billion dollars of the deficit will be created by the de--1 cline in business activity or two- ■ thirds of the total. Only five bill lion dollars, or one- third of the total, will be created by an increase in expenditures above those budgeted and, therefore, it has been the recession which has primarily created the problem. Is that not true?” , "That is correct, Sir,” Anderson replied. List Major Items Democrats in Congress and the administration can still argue about blame for the five-million-dollar increase in spending over ■ the January forecast. Here are t some of the major items: 5 —Defense spending up 500 to I 700 million dollars, —Government farm program - costs up about $1,500,000,000, part--5 ly as a result of a bumper wheat . crop. —Housing program outlays ini’ creased about a billion dollars be- ? cause of a bill pushed by Demo--1 crats as an anti-recession weapon , and signed, under protest, by the ■ President. J —Supplemental unemployment - benefits to cost about 600 million i dollars under one of the administration’s anti-recession proposals. • —A postal deficit about half a - billion dollars more than was ex- ! pected, partly because Congress : refused to give the administration all it asked in postal rate in- • creases and gave it more than it asked to raise to pay of postal t employes. ! • I ( Disorderly Conduct i Charge Filed Here 1 _ . Toribio Cortez, 48, Decatur, was I arrested by the city police depart- . ment Thursday at 11.30 p.m. for . disorderly conduct. His apprehen- ; sion was made at his home at 1115 ) Miebers street several hours after the first complaint was received « by the department from his wife. > Hie police were unable to locate i him until that time. I Cortez was taken to the city po- ' lice station where a bond was set ■ for S2OO by Mayor Rober D. Cole. He was unable to post the bond and was taken to the Adams county jail. Cortez will appear in mayor’s court this afternoon on the charge i filed by his wife. The average American homemak&r uses about three times as much electricity as she did 15 years ago.
