Pres. Eisenhower Seldom Takes Drink By MERRIMAN SMITH UP! White House Reporter WASHINGTON (UPD - Backstairs at the .White House: ( President Eisenhower’s drinking habits sometimes amaze those who entertain for him—and discourage the distillers. Certainly no president in recent years has cared less about whisky. This is relatively unusual in the sophisticated cocktail society of a world capital. Left to his own devices, Eisenhower might take a thin scotch and water before dinner, but that is about all. He doesn’t drink beer. For the most part he passes up Wine at banquets except for a ceremonial sip when a toast is proposed. At a state banquet in the White House for a visiting potentate, he is served each wine course but he does no more than taste them out of politeness. No wine is served when he and Mrs. Eisenhower dine alone. Sometimes, after a formal dinner at the White House when the men leave the ladies briefly for cigars and liquers, Eisenhower may take a creme de menthe frappe” to carry around with him as he talks with his guests. Eisenhower would not think of having a drink before lunch as many Ing American executives do. Nor does he drink after dinner—unless it is a most unusually festive evening as Christmas or New Years’s, or when he is the guest of a president or king in some foreign setting where to turn down a drink might seem out of place. Former President Truman was openly frank about his taste for a drink, but because he was no [hypocrite <nor much of a volume consumer) he sometimes was blamed for much more tippling than he actually did. A very noted American was Truman’s guest at a White House stag dinner one evening. By his own admission, he got fairly lubricated before, the evening was over. His excuse next morning as

Smith, and Mrs. Melvin Luhmann began their pre-Girls State training today, along with others who will be counselors at the annual convention for high school students. Counselors will be advisors to the girls, who will live in dormitories, divided into “cities,” and districts, and who will hold elections for local and tsate officials during their week’s stay on the Indiana University campus. Portland Is Site Os New Factory The Gehrig Rubber manufacturing corporation, Fort Wayne, will locate its new plant in Portland, it was announced Wednesday. The new corporation, Robert Ford, of the Portland Chamber of Commerce, said will have two types of operation. It will reproduce antique tires, which the company has done for some time. Its customers include the Smithsonian Institute at Washington, D.C. The company will begin a new operation, the manufacture of colored automobile tires, including allwhite tires, white side wall tires with various colored treads, and all-white or colored airplane and motorcycle tires. he nursed his hangover was that he was keeping up with the President “drink for drink.” The truth was that Truman did not touch anything alcoholic the entire evening. In fact, he hadn t had a drink for some weeks. To be hospitable, he had the White House butler fix a glass of plain ginger ale and said nothing about it. When the guests had another drink, the butler gravely toqk the President’s glass and returned it with a flourish on a big silver tray. All the butler did was add ice _ and for an entire evening, Truman didn't even drink the gingerale.
Governor Long Is Returned To Louisiana NEW ORLEANS (UPD - Gov. Earl Long was back in Louisiana today after 18 stormy days in a Texas mental ward. State officials appeared ready to let him run the state from his hospital bed. Long was settled in the fifthfloor room at Ochsner Foundation Hospital overlooking a bridge his brother Huey built. He returned to Louisiana Wednesday night in an Air National Guard plane from John Sealy Hospital in Galveston. Long was wan and halting when he stepped off the plane. All he said before an elevator whisked him and his entourage up to his hospital room was: “I’m glad to be back.” • He apparently has taken over again as governor. Lt. Gov. Lether Frazar, who was acting governor under the law while Long was out of the state, said Wednesday that as soon as Long crossed the state line “he is the governor.” Frazar said he would talk with Long today. —' The constitution provides that when the governor is unable to perform his duties for any reason. the lieutenant governor shall become acting governor. But the constitution doesn’t say who is responsible for declaring the governor incapable. It appeared doubtful that any members of Long’s administration Would care to assume that responsibility. Long told a reporter at Galveston before the plane left that he would be governor “the minute I hit the <state» line.” His doctors said he is suffering from tired heart muscle, among other things, and his wife said he would stay at Ochsner Hospital “two weeks or longer if necessary.” Mrs. Long spent the night with the governor in his turquoise and gray room. The room ha< one big window, out of which the governor can see the Mississippi River roll under the Huey P. Long Bridge, built before the “King fish” was assassinated.' Mrs. Long, whom the governor accused of being in on a plot to get him out of the state during ah mtefview ifiThe' Galveston hospital said she would remain with him until he gets out of the hospital. Long's plane landed at sunset and three black cars rushed meet it. Long emerged from the plane after-, his wife. Expressionless. staring straight ahead, he falteringly took the few steps to the car and sped off on the 1minute drive to the hospital.

Attempt Break At Indiana State Farm GREENCASTLE, Ind. (UPD— Seven State Farm prisoners faced arraignment today on charges of attempted escape in their breakout from solitary confinement cells. They were in Putnam County Jail for safe-keeping pending their court appearance. Supt. Walter C. Hock revealed Wednesday night that the prisoners broke out of their solitary confinement cells Tuesday noon as guards brought them foed. They took over the prison hospital before they quieted down and agreed to return to their cells, Hock said. A guard and the institution’s recreation director were injured in the brief uprising. Hock said the incident was kept secret until an investigation indicated that it was an isolated disturbance and not the forerunner of a mass demonstratoin.
Guard Injured Hock said Clifton N. Phillips, 19, Indianapolis, serving a one year sentence for robbery, slammed guard Grover Gibbens against the wall and wrenched the keys from him, cu 11 ing the guard’s hand. It took seven stitches to close the wound. The 240-pound Phillips succeeded in shaking off Gibbens and another guard, Hock said, and opened 13 other cells. Six prisoners joined Phillips and seven stayed in their cells. State Police from the' Putnamville Post across the road from the State Farm were called in to help guards keep order among the other 1.400 inmates. They surrounded the seven prisoners who took over the prison hospital. Recreation director Alan Clarkson went to the hospital three blocks from the solitary confinement cells to talk with the prisoners, Hpck said. John Knowles, 23, Gary,„one of the seven, allegedly struck Clarkson on the head with a club. The prison official suffered a two-inch gash in his scalp, Hock said. > Phillips in addition to the attempted escape charge was i charged with assault and battery and Knowles with assault and battery with intent to commit a felony. Attempted escape is pimishable by up to 1-5 years imprisonment and assault and battery with intent to commit a felony by up to. 1-10 years imprisonment. Hock said prisoners convicted would be sent to the State Prison if more than 30 years old and to the Indiana Reformatory if under 30. The seven prisoners surrounded in the hospital demanded a hearing with Hock. The superintendent said he told them he would talk with them if they went into a restraining cell, which they did.
• Protest “Solitary” Hock said he talked with them later after the institution’s other prisoners were fed. He said he prisoners told him they broke out in protest to their solitary confinement. Phillips was in solitary because he tried to stir up racial trouble, Hock said, and Knowles because he hit another inmate. Knowels (was serving a one-year term for burglary. Hock identified the others involved, their sentences and the reason they were in solitary as: Cecil L. Hobbs. 38, Scott County, six months for drunkenness, in solitary for running a poker game in a dormitory. Jerome McGill. 19. Indianapolis, [six months for petit larceny, in ! solitary for stealing from other prisoners. William A. Throop, 19, Connersville, six months for assault and battery, in solitary for fighting in the butcher shop. Robert Lee Terrlel, 18, East Chicago, six wionths for assault and battery, in solitary for refusing to work. i Irvin Jones, 17, Grant Cbunty, 'one year for car theft, in solitary for lying to a guard about his jname and number when he was i found in the wrong dormitory.
