Olympic Wrestler Is
Disqualified Because of
“Suspicion of Collusion”
ROME, Ufi — The International
Amateur Wrestling Federation to
day charged there was a “sus
picion of collusion” in an Olympic
match between a Bulgarian wrest
ler and the Russian gold medal
winner, and disqualified the Bul
garian from future competition.
The board of the Federation
took no action against Avtandil
Koridze of the Soviet Union, the
lightweight Greco-Roman wrest
ler who took the gold medal as
a result of his victory in the
match.
Earlier Ichiro Hatta of Japan,
a vice president of the federation,
said Bulgarian Dimitro Stoyanov
lost deliberately so that the Rus
sian could win the medal instead
of his closest competitor, a
wrestler from Yugoslavia.
The board of the Federation
called in both wrestlers and then
announced the disqualification.
Ike Notes Improvement
In World Health, Nutrition
WASHINGTON, UP>— President
Eisenhower said today that for
the first time in history man
kind is able “to catch the scent
of victory” over two ancient ene
mies: hunger and malnutrition.
These enemies — while not
whipped — are on the defensive,
he declared in a speech prepared
for the International Congress on
Nutrition.
“The world cups its ear to hear
the rattling of rockets. It listens
less closely to the sounds of peace
and well being which emanate
from the slow but steady im
provement in world health and
nutrition,” he said.
The Standard Oil tanker is here
discharging more oil and gas for
winter consumption.

Soviets ‘’Give’
Congo Much, Hope
For Beachhead
WASHINGTON, I/P) — U.S. of
ficials fear the Soviet Union is
trying to establish a Communist
beachhead in the trouble - ridden
Congo under the guise of helping
the United Nations restore order
there.
These officials said this conclu
sion appeared inescapable in view
of the amount of Communist mili
tary, technical and transport aid
rushed —outside U.N. channels —
to the African republic in the
last two weeks.
The State Department has
steadfastly declined to comment
on the development. Officials said
privately the problem is one for
the United Nations—not just the
United States—to handle.
U. N. Secretary - General Dag
Hammarskjold is aware of the sit
uation and is reported to be as
sembling information on Soviet
bloc activities.
But some U. S. officials, con
cerned over the speed of the So
viet actions, believe the U. N.
must move soon and vigorously to
assert its authority if the Congo
is to be kept clear of the East
West cold war struggle.
These officials said the Soviet
goal apparently is to make Pre
mier Patrice Lumumba so heav
ily dependent on Soviet advisers
and material help to keep his na
tion from collapsing that he will
be a willing tool afterward for
further Red penetration of Africa.
The Soviet Union soon is ex
pected by many to announce a
big arms deal with Lumumba’s
government. Authorities believe
this would be followed up with
sizeable economic credit.
