Peron’s Followers Dream Os Return
By PHIL NEWSOM VPI Foreign News Analyst Bullet scars mar the metal grill work at the entry way to Argentina’s General Confederation of Labor headquarters in Buenos Aires and a patch of concrete is a memento to a bomb. These are the leftovers of the revolution in 1955 which toppled the dictatorship of Juan D. Peron but left behind more than two million of his angry followers who continue to dream of his return. Peron drew his power from the “shirtless ones” organized in the General Confederation of Labor (the CGT), and although Peron has been gone for eight years, his followers continue to be the decisive factor in Argentine politics. It was fear of their return to power that led Argetina’s military forces to depose President Arturo Frondizi 13 months ago, that led to two unsuccessful military revolts against current provisional President Jose Maria Guido last September and in April and which also precipitated the current gov- 1 ernment crisis. These bitterly opposing ele- I

ments, the Peronlstas on the one hand and the military on the other, now are approaching national elections scheduled for July 7. r Their differences still are unresolved and even should Guido solve his present crisis, there remain more reasons than not to believe it is only the beginning of another series between now and election day. In the elections held a little more than a year ago and later annulled, the Peronistas piled up more than 30 per cent of the total vote. Argentina's continuing economic ills have led to forecasts that in any free election now, they might poll as high as 40 per cent. Thier apeal eils in a vague program of ‘social justice."

World's Road Racing Champ lnsoo-Mile i INDIANAPOLIS (UPD — Car owner Mickey Thompson of Long . Beach, Calif., today jubilantly i awaited the arrival of world road . racing champion Graham Hill of , London, England, to take part in ■ the Indianapolis 500-mile race. Thompson, as late as Tuesday afternoon, had lost all hope Hill would be able to get out of racing commitments in Europe to make the Memorial Day classic, and he assigned veteran Duane Carter of Indianapolis to Hill's car. Thompson said he made a lastditch effort Tuesday night with a trans-Atlantic telephone call to Hill, who told him he had just persuaded British Racing Motors to let him enter the race- Hill said he had sent a cablegram, but their 1 more violent leaders proclaim that they will win either by the ballot or with bullets.
THE DBCATOR DAILY DXHOCRAT, DBCATOB, INDIANA
Thompson said it had not arrived. But despite the snafu in communications, the Londoner was expected to arrive in New York ' today and arrive later at the Speedway for practice. Hill, who took part in a sports car race at Silverstone, England, last weekend, was the first newcomer to pass his driver’s test here earlier this month. Two days later, however, he ber came the first driver to wreck his i car -when he hit the retaining ' wall, but he escaped unhurt. 1 Meanwhile, Bill Cheesbourg of f Tucson, Ariz., was back in the 1 Thompson camp after indicating earlier he might drive one of the three Novis entered by Andy I Granatelli, Santa Monica, Calif. I Others expected to drive Thomp- ■ son cars are rookies Bill Krause, ' Long Beach, Calif., and Masten • Gregory, a Missourian, who now lives in France. The speedster on the 2%-mile ’ oval Tuesday once again was Parnelli Jones, Torrance, Calif., ! whose unofficial 152.027 miles per . hour reached last Saturday has j yet to be matched. , Jones ran more than 150 miles 1 an hour for five laps, with the top speed given as 151.566. Jones is holder of the one-lap and fourlap records, both above 150 mph r and set during qualifications last year. ■■■■■»

Freese Optioned Out By Cincinnati CINCINNATI, Ohio (UPD — The break that hustling Gene Freese teceived when he slid into second base in a Cincinnati Reds intra-squad game on March 5, 1962, may have been the most eostly of his career. It sent him back to the minors Tuesday as the Reds optioned him to San Diego of the Pacific Coast League on 24-hour recall. That’ was quite a comedown for the eight-year major league veteran who smacked 26 homers and drove in 87 runs as the Reds’ third baseman in 1961 when they won their first penant in 21 years. The optioning left Freese uncertain about his future. “I may go to San Diego and I might not,” he said when contacted in Chicago. Freese, 29, had hit just .154 in 17 games this season with the Reds. His stick work had been a question mark from the start of the year and there was some doubt that his fractured ankle would stand up to rough treatment. ,
While not exactly graceful around the “hot corner,” he did play creditable defensive ball this season. But he was sidelined almost the entire season in 1962 and bis timing is still off. Manager Fred Hutchinson hopes he can find the answer to San Diego. Indiana In Midst Os Varied Weather By United Press International Indiana today was in the midst of another of those weather periods when temperatures are almost arctic in the north and tropical in the south. More than 20 degrees separated South Bend and Evansville at high points Tuesday, and nearly 20 degrees separated them at overnight low points. , Most significant weather note today was a low of 39 degrees, only 7 degrees above freezing, at Fort Wayne and 41 at South Bend. Downstate, Evansville had a much-warmer 58. Tuesday highs ranged 22 degrees from South Bend’s 63 to Evansville’s 85. ' Forecasts indicated the variations would be nearly as great the next couple of days, with highs today ranging from 65 to the upper 70s, lows tonight from 46 to the low 60s, and highs Thursday from the low to upper 70s. Earlier indications of dry weather for several days were changed. Revised forecasts called for scattered showers and thunderstorms likely tonight and Thursday throughout the state. 'Hie five-day outlook called for temperatures averaging 1 to 5 degrees above normal with only minor changes expected through next Monday. Precipitation will average around an inch. In the northern third of the state, showers were expected Thursday and
Father-Son Banquet At Bethany Church T > T • w / I Angus Nicoson Coach Angus Nicoson will be the guest speaker at the E.U.B. fatherson banquet, to be held Monday evening, May 20, at Bethany. The banquet is being held for all men and boys of the church and will begin at 6:30 p.m. Nicoson is the athletic director of Indiana Central College, Indianapolis, where he has been head basketball coach since 1947. During this time his teams have won 235 games and lost only 129. His team won the Hoosier conference championship in 1963. As a students at Indiana Central College in the 1940’5, Angus Nicoson became one of its great athletes of all time. He was named to the all-state basketball team one year and to the all-conference team two years. As a senior he was captain of the Indiana Central basketball team which won 16 consecutive games. This team was ranked fifth in the midwest and ninth in the United States. While “Nick,” as he is known by his host of friends, made his greatest reputation on the hardwood, he also captained the Indiana Central baseball team his senior year and was good enough to receive an offer of a professional diamond contract. A date with his draft board in World War II prevented his accepting a position with the Chicago Cubs. Iniana Central’s athletes, under Nicoson’s direction, won the Hoosier college conference all-sports trophy five years, placed second four other times, and never finished lower than third place. In his early years at the helm of the Greyhounds (Indiana Central), Nick also coached football and his team won the HCC title twice. His basketball teams won the conference crown four times and the diamond team was HCC titlist six seasons. Many honors have come to Nick, but probably the most outstanding one is his selection for eleven consecutive years to coach the Indiana high school all-stars which play a similar Kentucky team each June in a series of basketball games as a charity benefit. All men and boys of the community are invited to attend. Tickets may be purchased from Tom Cole, Norman Koons, Sephus Jackson, Don Cochran and David Wynn. Price is $1.25 for adults and $1 for boys in school. Special guests will be the varsity basketball team of Decatur high school and their coach, William McColly.

Kennedy Watches Launching On TV WASHINGTON (UPD — President Kennedy today watched the launching, of astronaut L. Gordon Cooper on a television set in his bedroom. The White House had no immediate statement to and might not comment until the orbital flight is over, Press Secretary Pierre Salinger said. The President was expected to watch the flight on a television receiver in his office throughout the day. Methodist Home At Franklin Expanding FRANKLIN, Ind. (UP)—Dr. A. M. Brown, Superintendent of the Methodist Home here, announced plans today for construction of a $1.25 million wing and the expansion erf the health center. Construction will begin in about two weeks. Friday and again Sunday or Monday. Elsewhere, it will occur “about every other day.”
Democrats Claim Farm Plan Victory
WASHINGTON (UPD — Democrats claimed victory i advance today in the administration’s drive to pass President Kennedy’s feed grain surplus-reduction bill this week. Republicans generally conceded they had too few votes to block the measure as the Seate met to begin voting on proposed amendments. Democratic strategy called for an attempt to reject all amendments to the bill, which has already passed the House, to avoid the need for time-consuming Sen-ate-House conferences. Senate Democratic Whip Hubert H. Humphrey predicted the Democrats would beat all amendments and complete eactment of the bill by Thursday night. ■. The feed bill would extend into 1964 and 1965 an existing program under which farmers can get price supports plus acreage diversion payments by voluntarily agreeing to curb plantings of corn and other feed grains. Democrats want to push the extension into law before Mpy 21 because it may b Tighten prospects for farmer approval of the administration’s controversial 1964 wheat control plan in a referendum set for that day. Enactment of the feed grain bill would bring to life provisions of another law allowing wheat farmers to plant wheat on feed grain acreage and vice versa. Diis would presumably make the proposed wheat control plan more attractive to many farmer-voters in the May 21 referendum. Senate Republains after considerable bucking and protest, agreed Tuesday to a Democratic proposal to limit debate on each proposed amendment to one hour' An exception was made to allow up to two hours for debate on an amedmet limiting to 18 cents per bushel the portion of the feed grain price support which can be offered to farmers in the form of a direct federal payment. It was offered by Sen. Bourke B. Hickenlooper, R-lowa. 'Live' Television Pictures By Cooper CAPE CANAVERAL (UPD — Astronaut L. Gordon Cooper today transmitted “live” television pictures from his space capsule back to earth. The pictures, as relayed to home television screens by the networks, appeared indistinct. Cooper began the transmission at 9:18 a.m. EDT and continued for seven minutes. It was the first time that an American astronaut had attempted to send back “live pictures. The Soviet Union claims its cosmonauts have sent television pictures back from space on several occasions. Viewers of Cooper’s pictures apparently saw, barely visible cloud formations, indicating that he had chosen to aim his camera out the spacecraft windows. Scientists hoped that later in the flight Cooper would be able to turn the camera on himself, giving viewers a look at his facial expression and perhaps some indication of his weightless state while in orbit.

Controversial Balk Rule Is Revised NEW YORK (UPD — It’s now official. Major league pitchers no longer will have to come to a fullsecond stop in their delivery with men on base. Instead, they must pause Just long enough to satisfy the umpires before delivering the ball. This revision in the controversial balk rule was announced Tuesday by Charles Segar, secretary for baseball, who said the change had been approved unanimously by the nine-man Rules Committee in a special telegraphic poll. Segar notified all leagues in professional baseball that the phrase “at least one second” has been deleted from rules 801-B and 805M governing pitchers' deliveries with men on base. The balk controversy was touched off this spring by President Warren Giles of the National League, whd directed his umpires to interpret the balk rule strictly and insist that pitchers come to a full-second stop. American League umpires, meanwhile, were ignoring the fullsecond requirements and insisting only that a pitcher pause in his delivery. When the number of balks called in the National League passed the 100 mark last week, compared to only 10 in the AL, Commissioner Ford Frick called Giles and Joe Cronin, the America League president, to his office. The three men agreed that the rule should be interpreted uniformly in both leagues. Then Frick proposed elimination of the onesecond stop. Ordinarily, the rules group wouldn’t meet until December to take action, but because of the confusion that had been caused, Segar accelerated matters by contacting each member of the com/nittee by wire The result was a unanimous vote to erase the onesecond stop. FLAWLESS LEAP (Continued from Page One) still weak, but growing stronger. 17,544 Miles an Hour As Copper rode his Faith-7 craft at about 17,544 miles an hour through space, he moved into alternate night and day. He saw lights on the ground as he soared over Perth. Australia. He also reported seeing the “fireflies”—bits of material from the spacecraft—which previous astronauts had witnessed. The go-for-seven order flashed to Cooper toward the end of his first orbit meant that ground controllers considered his flight path stable and durable. Tracking station data showed that the temperature inside the cabin was 109 degrees and inside Cooper’s 20-pound air-conditioned space suit 92 degrees. This was warmish, but “well within range” of safe margins, officials said. Cooper himself reported he felt a: bit warmer than normal but was “having no trouble” with his suit. As he roared into the sky for liftoff, Cooper underwent forces of acceleration which multiplied his 147 pounds about 7% times, ana said. The orientation course lasts four weeks. The cadets will tour several Army installations in Alabama, and Georgia, and they will also attend classes in various military subjects. The annual cadet program was inaugurated in 1957 to offer college junior women the opportunity to sample Army life as a WAC officer without incurring an obligation for further service.
