Elmer Vaio Farmed Oul By Los Angeles United Press International Elmer Vaio, who broke into the majors under the late Connie Mack at Philadelphia 18 years ago, apparently has reached the end of the big league trail. The 37-year-old, Czech-born outfielder was farmed out to Montreal of the International League Tuesday by the Los Angeles Dodgers. He saw only limited service with the Dodgers during the past season, batting .248 in 65 games. Vaio made his major league debut with the old Philadelphia, Athletics near the tail end of the 1940 season, hitting .348 in six games. He remained with the A’s until 1956 when he was released but later hooked on with the Phillies. The Phillies traded Elmer to the Dodgers last year in a multiplayer deal for shortstop Chico Fernandez. Vaio enjoyed his greatest season near the tail end of his career when he batted .364 in 112 games with the A’s in 1955. The Dodgers also sent pitcher Babe Birrer to Montreal in exchange for first baseman Jim Koranda and outfielder Solly Drake. They shipped outfielder Bob Wilson back to St. Paul, brought up shortstop Harry Wallace from the same American Association club, and purchased catcher Norm Sherry from Spokane of the Pacific Coast League. Other major league roster changes: Detroit Tigers: Purchased infielder Maury Wills from Spokane promoted infielder Steve Demeter and pitcher Joe Grzenda from Birmingham, purchased infielder Bob Johnson from Charleston. Chicago White Sox: Acquired pitcher Rodolfo Arias and outfielder Joe Hicks from Indianapolis in exchange for outfielders Ted Beard and Dick Di Tusa. San Francisco Giants: Promoted first baseman Willie McCovey, catcher Albert Stieglitz and infielder Jose Pagan from Phoenix.

Members Os Junior High Team Honored Here Last Night The members of the junior high football team were honored with a wiener roast Tuesday night at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Worthman in regards to the attitude and cooperation displayed by! the boys in football for the 1958 season. During the wiener roast, Worthman talked to the junior high boys and expressed his thanks for their cooperation and ability used by each individual during the practice sessions and games played during the season. Hot dogs, cider, marshmallows, chips, and other treats were enjoyed by the 45 boys who attended the festivities. Worthman stated to the boys he thought they had a record to be proud of this year, and to always keep the desire to play football. All of the boys who participated in football this year were present at the outside wiener roast with the exception of a few. The few who were unable to attend were practicing basketball for the coming season at their respective schools.

NATIONALISTS '•(Continued frrxfn Pam* one) main reason Peiping ordered a cease fire at Quemoy was because Soviet Russia backed down on its pledge to help the Communists "liberate” the Formosa area. IKE (Continued from page one) —He did not see very much value in the idea, suggested by a reporter, that there should be a plebiscite on Quemoy and Matsu to determine which of the two Chinas the island inhabitants wished to join. —He supported Dulles’ position that the two major political parties should keep current aspects of foreign policy out of the congressional campaign. He-docs not oppose intelligent questioning or criticism, but he still thinks any willingness to adjust oneself to Communists demands cannot be anything but appeasement. Says Forces "Excessive” ’ Officials said another way of putting Dulles’ latest statement on the Quemoy crisis is that two weeks ago he defined one extreme limit of the U.S. position and Tuesday he sketched in the other limit. The eventual American stand, they indicated might be somewhere in the middle.

Final Junior High Game Here Thursday The Decatur junior high football squad will play its final intrasquad game of the season T|m>day evening at 7:30 Worthman field. The players will turn in their equipment Friday Bob Turley And Frank Malzone Top Ail-Stars NEW YORK (UPI) — Pitcher Bob Turley of the world champion New York Yankees and third-baseman Frank Malzone of the Boston Red Sox top the United Press International’s 1958 American League all-star team. Turley, a 21-game winner, was the only unanimous choice of the 24 baseball writers, three from 1 each city in the league, while Malzone, who hit .295 and played his position brilliantly, received all but one vote. The 10-man team, eight !regulars and two pitchers, was comprised of two Yankees, two Red Sox, four Chicago White Sox and one player each from the Cleve-) land Indians and Kansas City Athletics. Four of the players are ex-Yankees or ex-Yankee farmhands. The infield is composed of catcher Sherman LoUar of the White Sox. first = baseman Vic ■ Power of the Indians, the White Sox’ double play combination of second - baseman Nelson Fox and Luis Aparicio, and Boston’s MalIzone. The outfield is made up of Kansas City’s Bob Cerv, New York's Mickey Mantle and; Boston’s Jackie Jensen. Billy Pierce, the White Sox' little but hard - throwing left-) hander, was picked as the team's! ! second pitcher in a close race with Cleveland's Cal McLish and I Washington’s Dick Hyde. The team’s strength may be judged by the fact that neither' American League batting champion Ted Williams nor earned-run-lcader Whitey Ford made it. Williams won his sixth batting , title with a .328 average but was) ineffective until late in the season. Ford had a 2.01 e.r.a. but his won-lost was only 14-7 and be; was bothered by arm trouble during the last two weeks of the | season.

Darrell Royal : Is Named As Coach Os Week AUSTIN, Tex. (UPD—During his nine - year coaching career, he's criss - crossed the country from border-to-border and coast-to-coast like a politician on a campaign tour. He came to this football hotbed only two years ago to rebuild the university’s sagging gridiron fortunes and in his first season produced a bowl team. Saturday’s was his biggest coaching triumph, yet in a sense [ it disturbed him because it came ■i at the expense of his old coach. He’s affable, 34-year-old Darrell ; Royal, the United Press International Coach Os The Week be- ; I cause of his Texas Longhorns' thrilling 15-14 victory over mighty j Oklahoma. ; Despite an impressive 4-0 record and a No. 7 national ranking, however, Royal lives up ■to the crying - towel tradition of ■ his profession with a cautious, somewhat pessimistic outlook on the forthcoming Southwest Conference campaign. “I don't think (our prospects) are any more encouraging than they were." he remarked soberly, j "We've won four games by a total of 12 points, and could have lost any one of them. We haven’t J improved a whole lot. We’ll take our lumps before the season’s ' over.” A stickler for detail, an advocate of "hard - nose" football, ’and extremely popular with his players, Royal has the great admiration for the coach of his ( j college playing days at Oklahoma, Bud Wilkinson. And although last Saturday’s triumph was extremely gratifying, his joy was tempered by the fact that it had to come against Wilkinson. I "It didn’t give me any satisfaction just to beat Bud," Royal j said. “I’m not happy to see anyone, especially him. unhappy. I don't think Bud derived any i special satisfaction from beating me last year.”

Evansville Police Fight Indictments Attorney To File Motion To Quash EVANSVILLE, Ind. (UPD—An attorney for five Evansville policemen accused of visiting a house of ill fame said late Tuesday he would file a motion to quash the indictments on grounds the officers were conducting an investigation which led to the conviction of the madarrf. Attorney Wilbur Dassel said he would file the new plea after Vanderbugh Circuit Judge Ollie Reeves overruled a motion to quash on technical grounds. The policemen and three city officials were indicted by a grand jury recently touching off a political bombshell since Evansville’s Democratic Mayor Vance Hartke is running for the U. S. Senate. Hartke said it was a “political smear" and Republicans took up the issue. Dassel said he would claim the five were immune to prosecution because of the investigation. They were indicted mainly on the testimony of Mrs. Viola Williams, who ■was convicted earlier of keeping a bawdy house. She also charged the policemen solicited bribes. The five were suspended from the force pending outcome of the case. They' continued to draw full pay under terms of the Merit Board suspension. They were Patrolman Frank Sebastian, witness in City Court trial of Mrs. Williams; Capt. Beavin Wardrip, Capt. James L. Crawford, and patrolman Henry Tosh and John B. Reutter.

Henry Cooper Wins Over Zora Folley LONDON (UPD—Henry (Twin) Cooper, London’s lightly regarded blond plasterer who upset Zora folley — top American heavyweight contender — said today, “I expect a title fight with Floyd Patterson, and 4 expect to beat him.” Lanky Cooper, who delivered the third stunning blow to American boxing prestige within a month, had good reason to believe that his 10 - round decision over Folley Tuesday night would boost him to a title shot. Henry, twin - brother of lessknown heavyweight Jim Cooper, apparently has the inside track with Patterson’s manager, Cus D’Amato, over the other two Europeans who recently beat invading American contenders. Those European upset victors were Ingemar Johansson of Sweden, who knocked out Eddie Machen of Redding, Calif., in the first round, Sept. 14; and Brian London of England, who stopped Willie Pastrano of Miami Beach in the fifth round, Sept. 30. Not only did Cooper snap the top American contender’s winning string at 21 bouts, before a capacity 9.000 at Empire Pool; but he fought as a favor to promoter Harry Levene of London, a warm friend of champion Patterson and D'Amato. Cooper, who survived a thirdround knockdown and bloody face cuts before outpointing Folley, had been promised a title fight by Levene if he licked the contender from Chandler, Ariz. Levene said today. “Cooper earned a title shot. I hope to match him with Patterson for London in June. D'Amato promised me a title bout if I could produce a worthy contender. Cooper's my bot, and I’m confident he can beat Patterson.” (At New York, D'Amato said. “Levene is my very good friend. Cooper will be given close consideration as challenger — if he Reserved the decision last night—and early reports indicate he did.”) '■ a New Farm Research In Foreign Nations Promises Value To American Farmers WASHINGTON (UPD — The Agriculture Department has embarked on a new program of research in foreign countries which promises to be of great potential value to American farmers. Department officials said benefits anticipated from the program include expanded markets for 'farm products, more productive forest, new crops for U.S. farmers and greater ability to ward off possible future invasions of foreign diseases and insect pests of crops and livetock. ' The program will be paid for with foreign currencie put into the. U.S. account in various countries from sale of surplus farm commodities under the Agricultural Trade Development and Assistance Act. The new program, aimed in part at reducing farm surpluses, thus will be paid for by sales of these surpluses abroad. The research will be done under contract or grants by foreign scientists at foreign institutions in four general fields—utilization of farm products, farm production marketing and forestry. The work will be supervised by Dr. Guido E. Hilbert, assistant administrator of the Agricultural Research Service. Headquarters will be here. An overseas office to administer the program in Europe and the Middle East will be established at Rome. Department agencies that will participate in the program include the Forest Service and the Agricultural Marketing Service in addition to ARS. Some foreign research already has started on utilization studies to find new or expanded uses for U.S. farm commodities. The farm production, forestry and marketing research programs still are in the planning stage. There is no water on the moon, only (presumably) rocky surface.

Strikes End Peace In Chrysler Plants Two-Day Period Os Labor Peace Broken DETROIT (UPD — Negotiators for Chrysler Corp, and the United Auto Workers reported today they were still short of a contract agreement covering 8,000 salaried workers but some progress has been made. The negotiators met for 10% hours Tuesday night and this morning trying to reach an agreement in time to have it ratified along with contract agreements already reached between the company and the union covering 75,000 Chrysler production and maintenance workers. Shortly after the negotiations were recessed, Chrysler announced strikes at two of its plants idled a total of 1,400 workers and would idle another 1,500 at a third plant if they continued. ■Die strikes broke a two- day period of labor peace in which all Chrysler employes were working. The union scheduled a meeting of its Chrysler conference for Friday morning to consider ratification of the agreements which have been reached. They will make one more effort to reach an agreement on the salaried workers’ contract Thursday before recessing for the ratification meeting. Both UW President Walter P. Reuther and Chrysler Vice President John D. Leary reported some progress in the talks but refused to discuss details. Meanwhile, General Motors reported 32 of its 126 plants were operating today. The company said seven new agreements covering 16.676 workers were reached Tuesday, the best record since the company was idled by strikes over local issues at all of its plants throughout the nation on Oct. 1. GM now has 74.288 workers back in production and 200.000 still idled by strikes. Negotiators for American Motors Corp, and the ( ingybn <'*oew contract to cover AMC's 13.000 ' workers, were reported to be near agreement. The reports said agreement had been reached on all issues except thos involving conomics. The moon makes a complete circle of the earth every 27 days, 7 hours, 43 minutes and 11.5 sec- : onds.

Detective Lives In Jail To Nab Killer Six-Month Ordeal By . Detective Pays Off CHICAGO (UPD — A JapaneseAmerican detective, who lived in jail with a murder suspect at the risk of his own life to help solve the “spyglass” slaying of a Chicago spinster, today proved a modest hero. Anthony Muranaka. 35, passed off his six-month ordeal as routine police work, although it meant leaving his wife in the dark and posing without letup as a tough convict in “death row” and even solitary confinement. Muranaka's job was to observe, needle and draw out the suspect. Barry Cook. 24. When the detective figured Cook was ready to break down and confess, he passed the word to his superiors through a complicated code system. The word went out during the weekend, and Monday night at Stateville Penitentiary Cook, a part-time philosophy student and construction worker, dictated a six-page statement admitting J£e July 22, 1956. slaying of '.Chidag6’s lake Cook also admitted assaulting about 200 women before he crept up on the sunbathing Miss Gallagher'and bludgeoned her to death. “I had an urge to do it,” he said. “I don’t know why the Lord let me live on.” Die slaying was known as the "spyglass" murder because a nearby apartment dweller scanning the lake through binoculars witnessed the killing. The slayer fled before police arrived.
