Submits Bill To Keep Road Program Going WASHINGTON (UPD-Sen. Jennings Randolph (D-W.Va.) today proposed legislation aimed at keeping the vast federal highway program going without tax increases asked by President Eisenhower. Randolph, a member of the Senate Public Works Committee, said his measure is needed because “the entire future of the national hihway program is imperiled" by a deficit in the highway trust fund that will occur by the end of the coming fiscal year. The bill contains three main provisions: —lt extends the approval ofi the estimated cost of completing the interstate highway system for an additional year through fiscal 1962. —lncreases authorization for the 1962 fiscal year from $2,200,000,000 to $2,500,000,000. —Permits apportioning funds to' states for fiscal 1961 and 1962 and authorizes use of funds advanced 4o the highway trust fund to cover any deficits through fiscal 1962. Eisenhower proposed increasing motor fuel taxes by 1.5 cents per gallon through 1964 to raise money for the highway program. He also proposed higher levies on jet fuel and aviation gasoline. Randolph noted, however, that “there has been eneral widespread opposition to any increase in the federal gasoline tax." He said, “I do not believe that this is the proper time to increase the taxes, toiprovide for bond financing. or to allocate additional federal excise taxes to the highway trust fund."

Tighter Check Over Appointees Foreseen WASHINGTON (UPD - Congressional foreign policy leaders said today the disputed assignment of Clare Boothe Luce as ambassador to Brazil forecast a tighter Senate check on future non-career diplomats — starting with Ogden R. Reid of New York. Reid, former editor of the New York Herald-Tribune, 33 years old and lacking Mrs. Luce’s diplomatic experience, is President Eisenhower's nominee as ambassador to Israel —a hot spot in the Middle East. A key member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, preferring not to be identified, said Reid and all other non-career nominees will get “very, very close scrutiny" as a result of the Luce affair. This was indicated even before the row developed in the Senate over conformation of- the 56-year-old wife of Time Inc. editor-in-chief Henry R. Luce. The severity of the Luce confirmation battle made it a certainty that Reid Would face tough going. President ‘ Eisenhower gave Mrs. Luce, former envoy to Italy, warm support for the Brazilian post despite a continuing storm of Senate criticism of her behavior under fire. The Senate confirmed her nomination Tuesday, but a post-confirmation statement she issued slapping at Sen. Wayne Morse (D-Ore.) reopened the controversy. The dispute flared anew late Wednesday with these developments: —Senate GOP leader Everett M. pirksen (Ill.) accused Morse of trying to persuade Mrs. Luce’s physician to violate his Hippocratic Oath by giving Morse a report on her “psychiatric" condition without her permission. Morse said he only asked her doctor if she had been getting psychiatric treatment and had never asked for a medical report. Her doctor said she had riot. —Sen. Stephen M. Young »DOhioi said the Luce controversybrought to mind a poem entitled “The Woman With The Serpent’s Tongue,’*' which he read to a silent Senate. It referred to a woman “ambitious from her natal hour" with “poisoned words that wildly fly.” “Eisenhower told his news conference Wednesday that Mrs. Luce was ill-advised but "perfectly, human” in remarking that her troubles began several years ago when Morse was "kicked in the head by a horse." Farmer Crushed To Death By Tractor PETERSBURG, Ind. (UPD— Walter Kele, a Pike County farmer, was killed Wednesday night when he fell from his tractor and was crushed beneath the wheels. Coroner O. D.

Patterson Fails To Appear On TV Show INDIANAPOLIS (UPD — Wandering Floyd Patterson promised today to be on hand Friday night for the his heavyweight crown against England’s Brian London, although the champion’s surprise absence Wednesday night caused cancellation of a special television show Twenty-two sports writers, assembled from Europe and the United States in a studio at Indianapolis station WFBM, were flabbergasted when 24-year -old Floyd failed to appear, and the show was cancelled just before air time. -Jet-jawed London, ex-champion of the British Empire, kept the date for the telecast and was as dismayed as the writers and Studio officials. “Lor’ blimey,” he said, “I ’opes he shows up Friday. eh what.” Manager Explains Expressions of anguished disbelief swept the faces of the writers, primed to display their vast knowledge of the sweet science while interrogating champion and challenger in a question-and - answer production for the Indianapolis area. Cus D’Amato.. Patterson’s manager, explained ’ hie had advised Patterson to skip the show and get to bed early because the champion,” accompanied by a trainer, had been wandering about the classrooms of three schools here and one downtown gymnasium for five hours “and he was all tired out.” Cus continued, “As a favor to some important people. Floyd went to the schools to appear before the classes and to sign autographs. I thought he’d be gone about two hours—but it was an all afternoon affair, and I became very worried at his absence.” Weigh-In At Noon D’Amato added that he had not definitely promised Patterson’s appearance for the TV show. “And anyway, I thought the writers were the main show, and that the fighters were just supplements. I never dreamed his absence would cause this cancellation.” Meanwhile, Patterson, the 10-1 favorite and 24-year -old London were slated for light, limbering exercises today to keep loosened up while awaiting the fight. Challenger Brian expected to outweight Floyd about 21 pounds Friday noon, when they step on the scale at the Fairgounds Coliseum where the 15-round bout will be held. London aims at 204 pounds, Patterson at 183. Fish Fry Friday At American Legion The American Legion post 43 will sponsor a fish fry open to the public Friday from 5:30 p.m. until 7:30 p.m., Dick Archer, general chairman, announced this morning. “All the fish you can eat” will be featured, with chef Tom Smith ih charge of cooking the perch.

Springs Valley Star Is Named To Squad INDIANAPOLIS (UPD—Springs Valley’s Marvin Pruett, who averaged nearly 19 points a game during four varsity seasons, became the eighth member of the Indiana high school All-Star basketball team today and the last picked by sportswriters and sportscasters. The final two stars, selected by the Indiana-Kentucky game committee, will be announced May 3 and May 7. The two state's prep stars clash in a pair of games in June. Colonial National Invitation Opens FORT WORTH, Tex. (UPD— Big Mike Souchak, oozing confidence on the heels of his SIO,OOO triumph in the Tournament of Champions, started in quest of the $5,000 Colonial National invitation plum today against a picked field of 47 other pros. Souchak teed off at noon in a threesome with George Bayer and Fred Haas Jr. He said he felt he was playing as well, “perhaps a little bit better.” than when he set the PGA 72-hole record of 257 in the 1955 Texas Open and included the Colonial crown among four titles picked up in 1956. Actually, Souchak wasn’t a pronounced favorite to grab top honors in the $27,300 affair. As for that matter, there wasn't a solid choice among the four dozen starters. Veteran Cary Middlecoff had been the sports writers’ No. 1 pick, but they voted before his game fell apart to a next-to-last 305 at Las Vegas. Arnold Palmer, the well-heeled Pennsylvanian, was a strong second choice and Dow Finsterwald, always a good scorer here, was third in the voting. Ben Hogan, a four-time winner here on his home course enhanced his standings somewhat by shooting a seven-under-par 63 Wednesday to break the course record for a non-competitive round. A crowd of 4,500 paying fans, second largest here, viewed Hogan’s sizzling practice round. Injuries Are Fatal To Richmond Woman RICHMOND, Ind. (UPD—Mrs. Mildred M. Tracey, 50, Richmond, died -at Reid Memorial Hospital Wednesday of injuries received when the brakes on her car failed and it crashed into a truck.
