Nixon Urges Discipline To
Make American Freedom
The Cause of the Future
CHICAGO, UP) — Vice President
Richard M. Nixon says the United
States should go beyond economic
competition with Communism to
see which provides greater op
portunities for personal freedom
and expression to indivduals.
Nixon also declared that al
though the Soviets are ahead in
some areas of science, “we can
and will catch up” and thus dem
onstrate that “freedom, not Com
munism is the way of the future.”
To do this, he said, freedom
loving Americans will need a
“tough-minded discplined deter
mination to work longer and hard
er for our cause than the Com
munists do for theirs.”
Nixon, a leading possiblity for
the 1960 Republican Presidential
nomination, spoke Monday night
at dedication ceremonies for the
new University of Chicago Law i
School.

Juneau Murderer Found
Insane In Jury Trial
JUNEAU, UP) — A District Court
jury returned a verdict of innocent
by reason of insanity here Mon
day in the first degree murder
trial of Lester M. Mangle.
The verdict did not free the
defendant, who had admitted the
fatal shooting four years ago of a
Territorial Health Department
employe.
Judge Raymond J. Kelly, act
ing on the verdict, ruled that
Mangle must be committed to a
federal hospital* for the insane.
The judge directed the U. S. At
torney’s Office to prepare com
mitment papers.
In the meantime, Mangle re
mains in custody of the U. S. Mar
shal. He had been in a federal
security hospital at Springfield,
Mo., since the shooting in 1955.
He was held then under a court
order that he was not mentally
competent to stand trial for the
slaying of Mrs. Elizabeth Cornell.
Mangle was returned to Juneau
earlier this year after another
court order declared him ready
for trial.
Mangle, in testimony in the
trial, admitted killing Mrs. Cor
nell as the, woman was at work in
the Territorial Office Building at
Juneau.
Testimony during the trial
brought out the fact that Mrs.
Cornell was not the intended vic
tim of Mangle’s attack. She was
simply the first person he en
countered after entering the health
offices, after a long series of com
plaints against welfare policies.
Insanity was the only defense
entered for Mangle in the trial.
The case went to the jury early
Monday.
Canaveral Series Includes
Rocket Efficiency Testing
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla., UP) —
A Thor intermediate range missile
thundered skyward yesterday sev
eral hours after an Atlas regis
tered a successful, 5,500-mile test
with a new type tadtical nose
cone.
The 65-foot Thor was aimed at
a target 1,700 miles down the At
lantic missile range. The shot was
another in a series to intprove the
missile’s reliability as a war
weapon.
The Thor, which has been oper
ational for several months, is now
considered between 70 and 75 per
cent reliable. The goal is 80 to 90
per cent by the end of the year.
The Air Force issued a brief an
nouncement on the Atlas, report
ing all test objectives were met
and that the advanced design nose
cone performed satisfactorily.
The new cone is designed for
faster re-entry through the earth’s
atmosphere and probably will cut
in half the time in which an anti
missile device can intercept it.
There was no plan to recover
the cone.
Soviet Premier Praises

World Holds
Breath to Hear
Report on Lunik
By PRESTON GROVER
MOSCOW, W)—Soviet scientists
kept intent vigil at a receiving
“mechanical brain” yesterday as
the time arrived for their little
flying observatory to begin its
historic first reports about-the far
side of the moon.
By Soviet reckoning, the 614
pound Lunik III, laden with auto
matic recording and transmitting
instruments, was to soar within
4,350 miles of the moon and start
its biggest mission at 9 a.m.
That “moon hour” passed with
no immediate word flashed to the
eager public that the electronic
data was being received by the
“mechanical brain,” a compli
cated, interlinked computing sys
tem of listening posts and scien
tific centers.
However, there was no doubt
here in the Soviet capital that all
was proceeding on schedule.
At least a limted revelation of
what the Lunik sees is expected
to be disclosed within the next
24 hours. Even if not detailed, it
may at least say that man’s new
space-eye has registered a view of
the hitherto unseen part of the
| moon.
Manhattan Chivalry ...
NEW YORK, Iff) — In days of
old, the highwayman came riding,
ridng, with sword and cape, astride
a steed, to stop a coach.
In wild west banditos galloped
up to the stage coach and shouted,
“All right, podner, git off.”
Well, times have changed all
right, and such heists are a touch
less romantic these days. But no
less daring. Take, for instance,
what happened in broad daylight
Monday right in the heart of mid
town Manhattan.
Virginia Gelligan, 41, a nurse,
was drivng slowly between First
and Second Avenues, when a
woman stepped out in front of
the car.
Miss Gilligan stopped, the wo
man jumped in beside her and a
man who appeared from nowhere
hopped into the rear. Both ap
peared to be in their early 20s.
Acting as though he had a gun,
the man ordered Miss Gilligan to
drive on. As she did, they took
her wrist watch and fished $276
from her purse. Then they ordered
her to stop, forced her out, and
drove off. ,

Carrying Series
Play Back Home
By ED WILKS
Associated Press Sports Writer
CHICAGO, — It took three
games, but the American League
pennant winners — the Chicago
White Sox everyone knows —
finally showed up for the World
Series at the Coliseum.
And now that they’re free of
the snake pit that passed for a
ball-yard in Los Angeles, they’re
sure they can sweep the final two
games in their own park and win
the Series.
After winning the opener 11-0,
then losing the next three when
they out-hit themselves but could
not get the rims, the White Sox
finally returned to form yester
day, barring the Dodgers’ bid for
a clinching victory in the fifth
game with a 1-0 decision.
To stay alive, they went back
to doing what comes naturally,
winning with just five hits, all
singles, clutch defense ahd the
first three-pitcher shutout in
series history.
Back home behind Early, Winn,
who’ll be making his third start,
the Sox are favored at 11-10 in
tomorrow’s sixth game, after a
day off for travel.
But the Dodgers, who’ll send
southpaw Johnny Podres after his
second victory are 5-2 choices for
the world championship. They
need win but one of the remaining
two games.
Dodger manager Walt Alston
said aforehand that his Dodgers
have an advantage over any team
playing in the Los Angeles Me
morial Coliseum for the first
time.
The Coliseum, filled with gold
and bright sun, sent this' 56th
World Series rolling toward
money highs with record crowds
for each of the three games played
in Los Angeles.
But it was an open-air dun
geon full of horrors for defense,
with the glare and white-shirt
background leaving fielders blind.
“Our defense ought to be better
in our own park,” said White Sox
manager A1 Lopez. “Defense has
been the best part of our club
all year, but over there fLos An
geles) it was hurting us.”
