5.000 Chinese Reds
Pound Allied Lines
On Central Front
SUNDAY
SEOUL, UP) — Sabre jets shot
down two Communist Migs, prob
ably destroyed one and damaged
another Saturday in a clash with
the Red air force while Allied
fighter-bombers struck air fields
deep in Red territory, the Air
Force announced.
On the ground, more than 5,000
Chinese Reds slammed into Al

in central Korea, supported by
one of the greatest artillery and
mortar barrages of the war.
In the heavy central front fight
ing a U.S. officer on Outpost Har
ry estimated the Chinese have lost
3,400 men killed and wounded in
three successive night assaults on
the height.
Associated Press correspondent
Milo Farneti said Allied tanks,
flamethrowers and guns cut down
hundreds of charging Reds Sat
urday, but the attack carried some
Communist troops into the Allied
trenches. U.S. and South Korean
infantrymen met them with
knives and bayonets.
An Eighth Army officer said a
semi-official count indicated that
118.000 Red artillery and mortar
shells fell on Allied positions dur
ing the 12 hours ending at 6 a.m.
Saturday.
Snead Topping Hogan in
National Open Golf Match
OAKMONT, Pa., tf) — Ben Ho
gan Saturday shot a third round
of 73—one over par for the tortu
ous Oakmont Country Club course
—and saw the National Open Golf
championship slipping from his
grasp as challenging Sam Sneed
fired a succession of pars and
birdies behind him.
When Hogan finished his round
of 38-35—73, his worst since the
qualifying rounds of the tourna
ment, Snead was out on the back
nine after firing a two-under-par
35 on the front side.
That was enough to put Snead
in front if he could hold an even
par pace to the end of the third
round. He started Saturday’s fin
ishing 36 holes two strokes behind
Hogan with 131 to Ben’s 139.

RED PLANES RAID
SEOUL WITH FLARES
SEOUL, UP)—Five to seven Com
munist planes raided Seoul and
its outskirts for two hours and
33 minutes last night and early
Saturday, dropping flares but no
bombs.
It was easily the longest Red
raid of the war on this war bat
tered South Korean capital.
The slow, low-flying planes
dropped flares at Kimpo Airfield,
west of the city, and at Seoul’s
port of Inchon, about 20 miles
southwest. Then they circled the
Seoul area while searchlights
stabbed the night and anti-aircraft
guns blazed.
None of the raiders was shot
down although the searchlights
trapped several of the Red planes
in their beams.
It was the second raid in less
than a week on Seoul. Nine Red
planes dropped three or four
bombs in the vicinity of President
Syngman Rhee’s mansion Tues
day.

6 Women, 1 Man
Ride Yukon Rapids
In Eskimo Kayaks
DAWSON, Yukon Territory, (#>
—The challenge roared by arctic
rapids got a prompt answer from
seven Americans who are roller
coasting down the Yukon River
in something new in the way of
a summer cruise.
The six women and one man
told of their experiences with the
white water when they stopped
off at Dawson overnight on a 712
mile kayak voyage from White
horse, Y.T., to the Alaskan com
munity of Circle. Fairbanks is
their final destination.
Highlight of the first part of the
trip, they said, was shooting the
Five Fingers Rapids of the Yukon.
And they reported it was “such
an exciting adventure” that they
hoofed back a few miles and did
it a second time.
The only setback suffered by
the party on the first lap of the
trip was one bad case of sniffles.
Those who set out from White
horse June 1 were Mr. and Mrs.
Martin Wood, Florence Rucker,
Florence Robinson and Celia
Hunter, all of Fairbanks, and Su
san Hall and Muriel Thurber,
both of Seattle.
Six of them shared three 10
foot flatboats, which resemble Es
kimo kayaks. The boards are com
pletely covered in except for the
cockpits and propellor, when
there aren’t any rapids around,
by double-bladed paddles.
The bad cold was caught by
Miss Hull, a lab technician. She
came as far as Dawson in a five
foot, single-seater kayak but will
finish the trip by automobile after
treatment here.
They call it a trail-blazing voy
age. The idea, they hope, can be
developed into a tourits trip in
summers to come for travelers
with a yen for the unusual.
The travelers are camping on
river bars whenever the fancy
strikes them, visiting river settle
ments, taking pictures and inves
tigating historic sites.
