Candidate Suffers Injuries
From Whirling Propeller
COLDWATER, Miss., UP) — A
campaigning Democratic candi

the chest from shoulder to waist
when he walked into a spinning
airplane propeller Wednesday
night.

plane landed at the Coldwater air

Ducky Delight —
SACRAMENTO, UP) — A duck
flying north first class, took over
the swimming pool on the fourth
floor terrace of the El Mirador Ho
tel here Wednesday night.
The green-headed mallard made
a few surface dives, then waddled
onto the sundeck and basked un
er the electric lights.
Manager Warren 'Ramsey fed
him some crackers. The duck
took another dip before settling
down for the night.
There were no human swim
mers in the pool, but the patrons
at the adjacent cocktail lounge
were amused.

Communists Brag
Tibet Rebels Will
Soon be Wiped Out
TOKYO, UP> — The Chinese
Coiftmunist command in Tibet
claimed it had wiped out the bulk
of the Tibetan rebellion and
killed, wounded, or taken pris
oner nearly 2,000 rebels.
The Army said that, the only
remaining opposition was from “a
few remnant bandits who have
fled to remote mountainous areas.”
“With the active support of the
Tibetan people in these localities,”
the announcement said, “the
troops are continuing to hunt out
and mop up the scattered rem
nants. They will be wiped out in
the near future.”
The army report, broadcast by
the Communist New China News
Agency, said that in more than
10 days of fighting the Red troops
had captured a vast number of
villages, including “all the key
points in the border area of the
Loka area and in the northern
ranges of the Himalaya Moun
tains.”
The Loka area is the main rebel
base southeast of Lhasa, the cap
itol. It is Tibet’s border area with
India and Bhutan.
The Chinese Communists fired
an angry barrage of criticism at
the Indian government for re
leasing the Dalai Lama’s state
ment that he left Tibet volun
tarily.
The charges were the most
serious yet in a rapidly mounting
campaign to silence Indian cri
ticism of Communist Chinese ac
tions in Tibet.

Soviets Probe Idea For
Alaska-Siberia Bridge
Russia’s Literary Gazette re
ported recently that Soviet engin
eers are studying the idea of a
bridge from Siberia to Alaska.
The magazine said the Red en
gineers also have plans to warm
up America’s 49th state.
Science writer A. Markin wrote
that the bridge would be thrown
up across the Bering Straits at the
point where the tip of Siberia and
Alaska pinch the top of the Ber
ing Sea.
Markin said the bridge might
carry tracks for a Soviet-Amer
ican railroad.
He said the bridge would be 52
miles long and could house atomic
powered pumps to divert warm
ocean currents toward the Arctic
and turn frigid waters of the
Bering basin southward.
This would warm up the cold
climate of Alaska and Siberia,
the magazine said.

Space Ship Interference
Amounts to Grain of Sand,
Predicts Soviet Science
LONDON, UP) — Soviet scien
tists say an interplanetary space
ship may fly for years without
encountering a meteoric particle
bigger than a grain of sand.
The government newspaper Iz
vestia, quoted by Moscow Radio,
said the scientists concluded this
from reports radioed to earth by
Sputnik II.
They computed that a space
ship with a total surface area of
100 square meters might encoun
ter a meteorite weighing one gram
— three hundredths of an ounce
— once in 14,000 flying hours.

LAFAYETTE, Ind., UP) — An

a discouraging lesson in law from
Sgt. William W. Saylor at the
state police post here.
“It’s nice outside and my mother
won’t let me go out and play,”
the young caller told the ser
geant. “Is it legal? Can she do it?”
Sgt. Saylor had to tell the
youngster that mother was the
law in that area.
