Reopening Os Coliseum Is Under Study INDIANAPOLIS (UPD—State Fire Marshal Ira Anderson said today he would confer with a city-county-state tearfi which is*’ investigating the Indianapolis Coliseum explosion disaster before he agrees to reopening of the structure! The Indiana State Fair Board met today for its third special session since the Halloween night tragedy in which 71 per-, sons were killed. On the agenda was the question of reopening of the big structure for ice skating. Secretary-manager Hal Royce of the fair board said he would report that tests made Thursday show the ice rink was undamaged. He said “if the state fire marshal approves.” ice skating could be resumed very soon. Royce said the building already has been found to be structurally sound and a barricade has been erected to prevent access to the blast site beneath a tier of seats on the south side of the Coliseum. Anderson said he would consult with the investigators before approving any request from the fair board for reopening the building to the public. The team includes state. Marion Couhty and Indianapolis fire and police officials. Both this team’s investigation and that of a Marion County grand jury await a report from Purdue University on tests being made with five liquid petroleum gas tanks removed from the blast scene. Anderson said he was at Purdue Thursday, aiding in a school for firemen, and he learned the tests have not been completed. «» The grand jury plans to hear three more witnesses Monday in addition to a meeting at which the jurors will get the Purdue report. Meanwhile, Indianapolis Fire

Nine Koreans Killed By American Rocket SEOUL, Korea <UPl)—Nine Koreans were killed and nine injured Thursday by a U.S Army Honest John rocket while gathering scrap metal on a fir-, mg range, the Army announced today. The Koreans, all villagers who lived near the range 30 miles north of Seoul, had been warned by the Army to leave the area before the firing. It was the largest toll from any firing range incident here. Two Honest Johns were fired by an Army artillery unit. The Koreans rushed out to collect the scrap from the first warhead and were hit by the second. —x The Army said the victims of the rocket were “trespassing without authority” when hit. A spokesman said they apparently counted on a longer interval between the rockets. Ordinaril/; they are fired at half hour intervals, but Thursday, only a few minutes elapsed. The villagers were spotted on j the range about an hour before the, firing and were warned to leave by leaflets dropped from a helicopter, the Army sai<}. But they hid in bushes and caves and-were not seen in two later air searches, 30 and 5 minutes before the firing. Chief Arnold Phillips and the city’s legal department were considering a proposed ordinance under which city firemen would inspect all buildings before large public gatherings are held. The coliseum would be included in such an inspection. An eighth damage suit has been filed’ by a person injured were hurt, of which about half a dozen are still in critical condition. The latest suit for $367,000 was filed by Phyllis Jean Courier, Bloomington, a patient at » Methodist Hospital As in the other damage suits,’g the State of Indiana, The Indi-1 ana Fair Board, the Indianapo-1 lis Coliseum Corp., and the Dis-B count Gas Corp., were named ■ defendants. |

Charges Call Girls On Senator’s Payroll WASHINGTON (UPD — The Senate scheduled debate today on a housekeeping money bill, but the burning issue was call girls and a charge that at least one senator keeps a couple on his payroll. It was the senators who were burning. The target of their ire was Rep. Tom Steed, D-Okla., who made the call girl charge in connection with the $l6B million legislative appropriation bill. ‘ Steed, annoyed by the Senate’s stand against free mailing privileges for congressmen, told a newsman a few weeks ago that the Senate had some privileges of its own. He mentioned that he knew of two call girls on an unspecified senator’s payroll. Senators appeared annoyed about the views of Steed and his House colleagues on the “junk” mail issue as well as the call girl allegation. Prospects were that the senators would send the money bill back to a Senate - House Conference Committee where Steed heads the House delegation. Everett Dirksen, 111., told newsmen before the debate began thatg, Steed’s remark was a* “slur on every woman employed by the Senate.” Dirksen, a somewhat florid wordsmith, referred to Steed last week as “the white charger from Oklahoma.” Steed told UPI he had volunteered to quit as head of House conferees after Dirksen’s statement. But he said Rep. Clarence Cannon, D-Mo., doughty chairman of the House Appropriations Committee, vetoed any such action. Dirksen whs reported to have advised House leaders subsequently that there would be a discussion on the matter on the Senate floor.

Record Crowd To View I. U. r Purdue Battle r INDIANAPOLIS (UPD — Before an all-time record crowd at Bloomington, Indiana and Purdue will collide Saturday in their traditional Big Ten football finale for the “Old Oaken Bucket” and school prestige. It’s a season all by itself and results of eight other games they have played this fall are meaningless. Both prime for the big one of tills intra-state rivalry that dates back 73 years, with Purdue holding a topheavy 38-21-6 edge. But the underdog Hoosiers turned in a 12-7 upset victory at Lafayette last year on Marv Woodson’s (.classic 92-yard touchdown run to regain the coveted, moss-covered pail for the first time in 15 years and they vowed they won’t give it back this year. • The Hoosier campus was brimming with confidence that the pledge made last year will be fulfilled, and an overflow crowd of 50,000 or better was expected to witness the scrap. Hoosiers Rebound The confidence in the I.U. camp stemmed from the fact the Hoosiers rebounded well from four consecutive conference losses to Northwestern, Ohio State, lowa and Michigan State to rack up three victories in a row at the expense of Cincinnati, Minnesota and Oregon State, and they lost a heartbreaker at Oregon last Saturday in the final 11 seconds. Indiana rebounded despite the loss of Woodson, its top back who was injured early in the lowa game and had to undergo knee surgery. The Hoosiers check in with a 3-5 record, Purdue is all even at 4-4. Overall, the two rivals are so close statistically that the game must rate as a tossup—thus creating that extra bit of interest for this year’s bucket brawl. Indiana has the ground game, with fullback Tom Nowatzke, the Big Ten’s top rusher, leading the way. But the Hoosiers can pass, too, as attestedby Rich Badar, who set a conference season high of 256 yards on 20 completions in 28 attempts against lowa. Cites “Severe Test” Halfback Trent Walters, who took over for Woodson, and wingback Don Dilly also could give the Boilermakers fits—and Purdue knows It. “Indiana’s potentially powerful offense, which scored 20 or more points in 6 of 8 games, will provide another severe test of our defensive abilities,” said Purdue coach Jack Mollenkopf. “The Hoosiers have a great power runner in Nowatzke and Badar has demonstrated he can take to the air effectively — if needed.” Mollenkopf described Dilly and Walters as “the finest sophomore running backs in the conference.” Mollenkopf’s counterpart at Indiana was not to be -out-done in the bouquet-tossing. “We need every able - bodied man we can get ahold of for that game.” said coach Phil Dickens. “We have great respect for Purdue and especially for Mr. (Ron) DiGravio. He is a fine football player and a fine passer.” Obviously expecting an aerial onslaught masterminded by Di Gravio, the Big Ten’s leading passer, Dickens said all “we got to do is go dut and tackle and defend against passes.” “Cripples" to Play Most of the injured players announced by both squads after last Saturday’s games were expected to be well enough to play — Including DiGravio, who suffered a shoulder injury against Minnesota. Indiana had four starting linemen on the ailing list, but they, too, were expected to be in action. “We have a bunch of boys who just want to play football,” “and I just hope they want to play Saturday.” Bob Hadrick, Jim Morel, Harold* Wells and Jim Kuzniewski are among DiGravio’s favorite aerial targets while fullback Gene Donaldson was expected to carry the load on the ground for the Boilermakers. Nowatzke. who already has set all-time IU records with 57 points scored in. one season and five field goals, needs exactlv 100 yards rushing to break Indiset by Gene Gedman m 1951.

Racial Harmony Plea By Arkansas Clergy LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (UPD— A pastoral letter aimed at overcoming racial intolerance will be read this weekend in churches and synagogues of Little Rock, scene of the 1957 school desegregation crisis, and throughout Arkansas. Entitled “A Pastoral Letter on Race and Conscience,” it declares “the divine law to love our neighbor is binding upon all. It binds both white and Negro alike.’’ “We appeal to the members of all congregations to ask their own consciences if there is any other course that they themselves can follow and still be consistent with what they profess,” the letter said. "7 The letter called the racial problem the most serious domestic problem facing the -nation, and one which cannot be solved by statutes and laws alone. - The letter was prepared by white and Negro clergymen of several faiths at the request of the Greater Little Rock Conference on Religion and Human Relations. They were the Most Rev. Albert L. Fletcher, bishop of the Catholic Diocese of Little Rock: the Rev. John D. Bright, bishop of the African Methodist Episcopal area of Ar-kansas-Oklahoma ; Dr. Kenneth L. .-Teegarden, president of the Arkansas Council of Churches, and Dr. Ira E. Sanders, rabbi emeritus at Temple B’Nai Israel. A committee composed of Rev. Donald K. Campbell of Grace Presbyterian Church, Father Walter B. Clancy of St. John’s Seminary, Rabbi E. E. Palnick of Temple B’Nai Israel and Rev. Rufus King Young, all of Little Rock, was charged with distributing the letter to ministers throughout the state. The Rev. Mr. Campbell said it would be read in all Roman . Catholic and Protestant Episco- £ pal churches in Arkansas by di- ] rection of their bishops. He said I the Methodist bishop had rec- ] ommended it to all ministers ] and that clergymen of many ] other churches would use it as ] they saw fit. I It was timed to be hread durI ing the Thanksgiving season.

Attorney Says Hotfa Had No Part In Bribe NASHVILLE, Tenn. (UPD— Teamsters President James R. Hoffa played no part in an alleged jury bribing attempt which led to the disbarmment of a prominent local attorney, a U.S. District Court was told in a secret hearing Thursday. . Judge William E- Miller disclosed that attorney Z. T. Osborn Jr., told him Hoffa' was unaware of an attempt to bribe a prospective juror for Hoffa’s Jan. 6 jury tampering trial. Osborn testified at a closeddoor hearing held Tuesday in Miller’s office. Ttye attorney was disbarred from federal court the following day but has announced plans to appeal. Things To Say “There are things that must be said on my side of the matter, and I will have an opportunity to say these things in due course,” Osborn said in a statement released through Teamsters Union headquarters in Washington Thursday. Osborn refused to talk with reporters in Washington. “This is not a matter than can be fought in the press,” his statement said. "It is a matter for litigation.” The disbarment was on the ground that Osborn attempted to offer a SIO,OOO bribe to Ralph Elliott of Springfield, Tenn., one of 36 prospective jurors. Elliott, who the court said was “blameless,” never was approached. It was learned that the Justice Department is investigating the possibility of attempts to influence others selected for possible jury duty in the upcoming Hoffa trial. Ask For Continuance Hoffa’s attorneys are expected to ask early next week for a continuance and renew their charges that Hoffa cannot get a fair trial here because of “adverse publicity.” Federal Judge Frank Gray Jr., has indicated, however, the oft-delayed trial will not again be postponed. Hoffa, who has been represented by Osborn since .Sept. 5, 196?,is accused along sjx others of attempting to fix the jury which tried him here last year on charges of sharing in a $1 million payoff from a trucking firm. He could receive up to $25,000 fine and 25 years imprisonment if convicted. American To Accept 'Chicken War' Basis WASHINGTON (UPD — A basis for settlement of the U.S.Common Market “chicken war” has been reached with American acceptance Thursday of the finding by a panel of trade experts. The panel, established by the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT), estimated that the - United States lost $26 million a year in its exports to the Common Market because of the market countries’ prohibitive duty on poultry imports. Christian A. Herter, the President’s special representative for trade negotiations, said in a statement that the United States will now proceed with plans to increase American tariffs on selected items equivalent to $26 million worth of Common Market imports into this country. Noting that the tariff experts’ estimate of the losses to the United States were S2O million below U.S. estimates, Herter said: “It is a judgment rendered by a panel of distinguished in dividuals who are thoroughly familiar with GATT practices and procedures and it will therefore be accepted by the United States in good faith.”
