U.S. Will Make
Die-Hard Stand !
For Old’ Baldy
J
SEOUL, >(/P). — An American
front line general today indicated
his troops would make a die-hard
stand against any Chinese Red
drive to control the Korean west
ern front hills Old Baldy and T
Bone Hill.
Maj. Gen. James Clyde Fry,
commander of the U. S. Second
Division, said he could not let the
Chinese win more ground on the
two heights.
“You let him push you off one
hill,” Fry told newsmen, “tomor
row he pushes you off another.
It may be the preamble to a very
costly campaign.”
He declared that “as a piece
of ground” it was not worth the
price but as “a matter of policy”
it was.
“There’s a limit to how far you
can allow yourself to be pushed.”
Fighting around the two hills
slacked off, but throughout the
night U.N. artillery roared to keep
the Communist “buttoned up.”

CAA Orders Grounding
Of Alaska Airlines For
Violations Of Regulations
WASHINGTON, {&)—A 30-day
grounding of Alaska Airlines’
DC-4 transport planes “because of
violations of Civil Air Regula
tions” was ordered Friday by the
Civil Aeronautics Administration.
Alaska Airlines voluntarily sus
pended passenger operation of its
DC-4s May 31 because of a high
rate of engine failure, the CAA
said.
They said the company over
hauled the engines, revised oper
ating procedure, made satisfactory
test flights and put the Douglas
Skymasters back into service.
Since that time, there have
been three additional engine fail
ures, the CAA added.
The aeronautics agency said the
suspension affects only the planes
of the Alaska Airlines.
Saturday reported the loss of
eight Allied planes during the
week ending Friday — none in
aerial combat. *
Five were downed by Com
munist ground fire and the other
three were lost to unknown
•
causes.

Japanese Swimmers
Resume Place In Olympic
Games, Smashing Records
HELSINKI, (^P)—Japan’s swim
mers, who performed so sensa
tionally in the 1936 Olympic
games, resumed their place in the
Olympic spotlight Monday, taking
over the record - breaking roles
that American track and field
stars relinquished.
The Japanese 800-meter free
style team smashed the third
Olympic swimming record in
three days of competition in the
Olympic pool by winning its qual
ifying heat in eight minutes, 42.1
seconds. This broke the mark of
8:46 established by the United
States team in 1948 and carried
out the pattern of record-wreck
ing that has marked every day
of the 1952 Olympic games.
Anchorage Bank President
Bids for Equal Air Freight Rates
From Portland Sc Seattle to Alaska
PORTLAND, (/P) — Seattle
should not be permitted to lower
its air freight rates to Alaska,
Phil Johnson, president of the
Bank of Fairbanks, told a Civil
Aeronautics Board hearing here
Friday.
He said the present rate sched
ules—the same for Portland and
Seattle — encourage competition
between the two cities for Alas
kan trade. That might make
prices lower in Alaska, he said.
Seattle representatives said
earlier in the hearing that they
should be permitted lower .. rates
because their.. city' is 135 miles
closer to Alaska. * -
