Pro Football Head Deplores Bonuses PHILADELPHIA (UPI) — National Football League Commissioner Bert Bell, with an ear to the turnstiles and an eye on the gate receipts, said today the "regulars” on the field should get the money—not the bonus players. "The regulars are the guys who came up and made the team,” Bert boomed as the' NFL prepared to open its 39th season Sept. 28. "They play every week,” he said. "And I believe the money in all sports belongs to the players who make the club, not the guys> who are paid to try and make it. “The big money shouldn't be earmarked for bonus prospects. Look it squarely in the face. Fifty per cent of the bonus prospects ddn’t make the club. They use up the good money the other guys draw in at the gate.” The commissioner, who mpdestly a drpits professional football — particularly as played in the NFL —is the best in the world, said the American sports public is sold on “the tops.” "People want to see the top four ar five golfers in action, the top race horses, the top baseball teams and of course, the top football teams," he said. "The bonus paid for the un- j known — remember, he’s getting paid for a chance to see IF he can make the team — takes it away from the guy who is out there every day. “Why, there’s two, three or even four million dollars spread out in bonus players.” Bell, perhaps with memories of not - too - distant events in the courts, said discrimination can ■

Famous Poet Dies In France Thursday Robert W. Service Is Taken By Death LANCIEUX, France (UPI) — Poet Robert W. Service, author of “The Shooting so Dan McGrew.” died here Thursday night at the age of 84. Friends of the British-born author said he apparently died of a heart condition in his villa “Corps de Garde” in this little north Breton resort. He had been suffering from a weak heart for more than two years. His wife was at his bedside when he died. Service was born at Preston. England, on Jan. 16, 1874, and was educated in Glasgow. In 1894 he went to Canada and began working for the Canadian Bank of Commerce in Victoria, B.C. He was transferred to White Horse in the Yukon and then to Dawson. During his eight years in the Yukon he traveled widely and began writing verse to describe the life in the north. His major works were “Songs of a Sourdough” which he wrote in 1907 and “Ballads of a Cheechako.” In 1910 he wrote a novel, “The Trail of ’9B” which gave a vivid description of men and conditions in the Klondike.

DEPUTY U. S. (Continued from page one) structions. More were arriving. The Supreme Court’s decision made essential decisions which will have to be made before Monday and possibly within hours. Among them: —Faubus will have to decide whether he is going to sign into law legislation permitting him to close Central and use it. —The Justice Department team will have to decide what it is going to do to counter Faubus and put into action its plans to neutralize potential troublemakers. —The city council will have to make up its mind how far police vill go to help the marshals in enforcing integration. There were indications the government may try to outfox Faubus by trying to get an injunction forbidding him to sign into law the bill authorizing him to close Central. “He can’t close the school because he has no basis in law for it,” an assistant U. S. attorney said. An injunction would the use of a court citation for contempt if it were violated, but Justice Department sources said it is extremely unlikely the government would cite Faubus.

Fourth Os Com Crop Is Safe From Frost Maturing Os Corn Is Behind Average LAFAYETTE, Ind. (UPI)-Ex-perts reported today that onefourth of Indiana's corn crop was matured to the point where it is safe from frost by the end of last week. The 25 per cent estimate compared with about 35 per cent a year ago. Floods and extremely heavy rains were responsible for late planting both yedrs. (Earlier this week, the Agriculture Department forecast a 1956 Indiana corn crop nearly five million bushels greater than last year!s crop.) Robert E. Straszheim, agricultural statistician at Purdue University, also reported that leaves have fallen from about 10 per cent of the state’s soybean crop, slightly under last year’s 15 per cent and considerably below percentages varying from 29 to 45 in other recent years. “There were no important changes in supplies of moisture during the week and present quantities are generally ample in most localities to carry the corn and soybean crops through to maturity,” the report said. “Weather conditions during the past week allowed farm operations 86 per cent of the time, which was the second highest percentage for any week this season. “Plowing for wheat has become difficult in some localities but seedbed preparation has generally kept pace. Silo filling is gaining momentum with about 15 per cent of the silos filled during the week. “Tomato picking continues but at something less than full speed as some fi"e 1 d s are ripening slowly. Pasture conditions remained at a high level with most sections reporting only minor changes from a week earlier.” POSTER WINNERS (Continued frcm page one) ets will also be sold at the gate tonight. Festivities will start at 6 p. m., when the junior high teams will clash in a pre-game activity. Before the game, members of former teams coached by the three Lions club members will be introduced. At the half Glenn Hill, president of the Lions club will present the coaches and their wives with certificates of merit, and a bouquet of flowers. Then the band, color guard, and other groups will march Onto the field and the new flag pole, a gift of the General Electric company, and new flag, gift of Adams Post 43, American Legion, will be presented to superintendent of schools W. Guy Brown by Jack Heller, former letterman and a representative of the Decatur Booster club. The Legion color guard will post the flag, and the high school band, I under Clint Reed, will olay the na-| tional anthem while the flag is raised. j Trade in • «•<«’ town — Decata)

MANY FROM (Continued from page one) the Republicans had one worth talking about. President Truman said he thought the retirement of Sen. Jenner was a good thing for Indiana, since he never really represented the people anyway. He heartily recommended Vance Hartke to the people. After the interview, which covered a number of questions, and included TV and radio broadcasts in addition to the usual barrage of flash bulbs, the former president was led to a private room where he talked with the district chairmen and the guests of honor. Following the SIOO a plate banquet, enjoyed by more than 1,500 persons, the Post 83 American Legion color guard, state champions, posted the flag, in a ceremony which greatly pleased Truman, a Legionnaire himself. With a smile and complete frankness, the former president spoke to a large crowd. The Adams county sections, 21 and 22, were well-filled, as was the entire coliseum. A rocket engine developed for produces about the same amount ' of power as the giant turbines on i a navy cruiser. Cuba was Uncle Sam’s best customer for hams, shoulders and bacon in 1957.

The companies hoped to prevent the UAW from using its famed ’’whipsaw” technique on them this year, and considering a strike against one as a strike against all could be an answer. The "whipsaw” technique, a method of getting an agreement from one company and then using it as a lever to get a better contract from another company, was used in contract talks in 1953 and 1955 with Ford as the primary target in both cases. The source said the Ford offer would involve only one of the four major points UAW president Witter P. Reuther outlined as his objectives in contract talks e with the auto companies this year. These points included an 11-cent hourly pay hike, pension improvements with a cost-of-living adjusts ment to protect retired workers from inflation, extension of the supplemental unemployment benefits plan from 26 to 52 weeks, and company-paid moving expenses for workers whose jobs are shifted to new plants Ln other parts of the nation. The offer will be made “sometime this week end," the source said. Trade in a good town — DecafrM

CHINESE REDS (Continued from one) area sheltered by a 50-foot sheer cliff for a third landing ship beaching area. The Communists have made two other landing beaches unusable. Other reports from Quemoy said the Nationalist garrison and civilian population numbering more than 100,000 were threatened with starvation unless supplies get through. The garrison also was short of medical supplies and of ammunition. The Nationalist defense ministry reported 20 Nationalist officers and soldiers were wounded in the bombardment Thursday which sent the four Nationalist LSTs fleeing back to their bases in the Pescadores. Communist China opened new propaganda attacks on the United States and Nationalists today and said 212 million persons had demonstrated against the United States in the last five days in one of the greatest popular protests in history. While the Chinese were being mobilized for these demonstrations major nwspapers headlined the Communist regime’s fourth “stern warning” to the United States against the "intrusion" of its warships into the waters around the Quemoy area.
