Looking At Life By Erich Brandeis h„. t , is one way of doing it oU want to be hale and hearty seventy-two. _ _ r ou may have read in your ..papers that Joseph Vissaroviv Djugashvill. alias Joe Jin just celebrated his seven second birthday and that he "in fine fettle. > ere according to the dises. is how "good, old Joe” he gets up at eleven o'clock Ijie morning.

Ami so to bed. The report goes on to repeat at Joe Stalin, at 71!, is in perft health “other than periodic ta.ks of asthma and a mild ftial paralysis which prevents

hint from walking more tiian an hour at a time.” Other reports have stated from time to time that “Good Old Joe” has heart trouble, cancer, diabetes, and dandruff. At any rate, our heartiest congratulations to Joe and may lie get what he deserves. Only, unfortunately, "wishing wonlt make it so.” By the way, did you read that story about the sixty-nine-year-old London woman who says about her marriage that it "has been one 'of the happiest anyone

could have”?

It's quite a long story. But the gist of it is that her husband has lived in South Africa for forty-nine years while she lias lived in England. Finally he lias come to England for her. and as lie kissed his wife, he said that she hadn't changed a bit. Whereupon she replied that lit', too, looked just as lie did forty-nine years ago. God love a cheerful lair! .MEETING JAMAKi S

INDIANAPOLIS. Jan. 11 (DPi Sen. William E. Jenner ended a four-year question mark eoncerning his 1952 gubernatorial intentions today by announcing he would seek to keep his senatorial seat six more years. Jenner. whose indecision ovc: whether to run for governor or senator kept numerous other hopefuls silent on their plans, ended speculation over his own aspirations in Washington last

night.

The Bedford lawyer lost the Republican nomination for governor in a tight four-way race at the 194K state nominating convention when two candidal, s withdrew an.I threw their support to Hobart Creighton, who ultimately lost the election !•> Governor Schricker. Jenner announced last nigiit he would seek another term as senator because he felt "my greatest usefulness would be as a senator rather than as a governor " He acknowledged tha‘ his "ambition lor many years” was to he governor of Hoosier-

land.

That ambition was what kept speculation high ever since his convention defeat that he would be hack maneuvering for Unstate's top elective office in

1952.

However, Jenner's decision to try to stay in Washington does not remove him from the gubernatorial picture. Observers say Jenner is the most powerful figure in Indiana GOP politics and lias such control that he can if he desires handpick the man who will be nominated as chief ex.-cu-tive at the convention n.-xi summer. ’ The announcement is expected to open the floodgates, nevertheless. for a wave of pronouncements and campaigning by other Republicans who would like t.. be governor. Among those who have been mentioned are George N. Craig, formerly of Biazil and past national commander of the American Legion; State Senate President Pro Tern John W. Van Ness, Valparaiso; House Speaker W. O. Hughes, Fort Wayne; Ralph Harvey. 10th District representative in Congress; Secretary of State Lelund L. Smith, Logansport; Mayor Vernon Anderson of Hammond .and Former Lt. Gov. Richard T. James, formerly of Portland. According to political tradition, the governor nomination should go to somebody in northern Indiana. Jenner and his senatorial colleague, Homer K. Capehart, both hail from the "deep south” and the necessity of a geographical balance to attract votes next November is rated most important by political leaders. Jenner, a vigorous and out-

spoken critic of the national administration since he first took office in 1945 as a short-term senator just returned from World War II service in the Air Force os a captain, was the victim of a dramatic factional fight In the 1948 state convention. He, former State Auditor A. V. Burch, Walter Helmke of Fort Wayne and Creighton went into the convention seeking tile gubernatorial nomination. Jenner led on early ballots but lacked the necessary plurality over the other candidates. Sensing an eventual victory for Jenner, Helmke and Burch bowed otr. and asked their supporters to vote f.n Cr.-igh'on. Most of them did. and C. -ighton was nominated on the next ballot. But Schricker. seeking an unprecedented second term, easily defeated Creighton in the fall

election.

Find No Trace Of 45 Seamen

SEATTLE. Wash.. Jan. 11 — (UP) A fleet of rescue vessels criss-crossed the last-reported position of the freighter Pennsylvania today searching for some trace of the 46 crewmen who abandoned her in the stormy

North Pacific.

At least a dozen long-range patrol planes stood by to take off at dawn for a position 750 miles northwest of Seattle where the search was concentrated

Three ships already were on the scene, and at least three others, including the Coa-.t Guard Cuftei Klamath, were due to join the search today But the search by ships and | planes yesterday covered a 7.00 1 )- square-mile area without turning up any evidence whatever of the foul lifeboats thought to he carrying th- men of the stricken

ship.

Nor did tli, rescue craft find any debris which would indicate that the Pennsylvania had sunk. The navy said an area of II.000-square-miles would be •searched "by eye and radar” today as additional forces were thrown in the rescue operation. The last word from those aboard the Pennsylvania was at 4:40 p. m. Wednesday when the Coast Guard picked up the terse message: "Leaving now." Eighteen minutes before, the Pennsylvania radioed, “Looks like we have to abandon ship." Winds up to 40 miles an hour wen- reported and 25-foot waves have made search operations difficult. The ship s rolled and pitched heavily in the rough sea. Which reduced the effectiveness of radar as an aid in search opera-

tions.

The Canadian weather ship Stonetown arrived in the area ;U about 8 p. in EST yesterday and

Expect Political Talks By 'Ike'

WASHINGTON. Jan. 11 (UP) One of Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower’s political managers said today he expects the general to return to this country and de liver one nr more major speeches before convention time. He said Elsenhower's speeches would not be made under political sponsorship, but would outline his views on national issues. , The Eisenhower bar ker, whft did not wish to be quoted by name, made the statement in the face of a denial from the General's Parts headquarters that he plans any such pre-convention speechmaking. Sen. Robert A. Taft told a reporter meanwhile that he is looking forward confidently to a test of ills vote-drawing powers against those of Harold E. Stassen in the Illinois GOP Presidential primary. “If I can't beat him in Illinois.* 1 can't beat him any place, the Ohio Republican said with a

grin.

Taft, Stassen and Gov Earl Warren of California are avowed candidates for the Republican nomination. Eisenhower said earlier this week that he will acept the GOP Presidential nomination if it is tendered to him, but Uiat lie will not seek relief from his assignment as Supreme Atlantic Pact Commander in order to campaign for it.

DePauw's slipping Tigers dropped their third net game in row Thursday night ovei at Terre Haute when the Indiana State hasketeers handed them to 52 beating.

However, the Terre Haute squad began to move in the second period and the count was even at 30-30 at halftime. Indiana State rally caught fire in the third frame anil pushed past the Tigers to take a 49 to 35 lead and the host aggregation was never in danger from then on, winning by a 19-point mar-

gin.

Tlie Sycamores drubbed DePauw with a balanced scoring attack that showed four players in double figures. Cliff Murray led With 15, Ed Longfellow and Sam Richardson got 14, and Dick At ha added 13.
