Eisenhower - For -
President Forces
Step Up Fight
iRy tiif. Associated P^fss)
Eiscnhower-for-President forces
are stepping up their fight to win
a political beachhead for the gen
eral.
There were these developments
for several states and Washington:
1. Seven speakers from Con
gress and elsewhere will begin
moving into New Hampshire next
week .to boom Gen. Eisenhower
for that state’s 14 delegates to the
GOP presidential nominating con
vention.
2. Gov. John Lodge of Connec
ticut publicly came out for Eisen
hower and announced he is going
on a speaking tour of Florida,
Mississippi and Louisiana.
3. Louisiana Eisenhower back
ers feuding with sponsors of Sen
ator Taft of Ohio are seeking to
force the GOP state central com
mittee to certify the returns of
the Jan. 15 party primary in
which Eisenhower supporters won
the majority of seats.
4. I n Washington, evidence
mounted that the general’s sup
porters are building up pressure
for him to return home and help
get the bandwagon rolling. ,
5. Eisenhower still has a 5 to 3
edge over Taft in Oklahoma, but
Taft picked up two more dele
gates to the GOP national con
vention Wednesday in the strug
gle for Oklahoma's 16 representa
tives. Gen. MacArthur has one,
one is still uncommitted, and six
more are to be elected.
Sen. Brewster (R-Me\ however,
wasn’t too impressed with all the
“I like Ike” activity. He predicted
that if present political trends
continue, Taft will have the GOP
nomination “sewed up” within a
few weeks.
Corporal Seeks Divorce
From Second Lieutenant
DETROIT, (jP)—His wife be
c a m e a second lieutenant and
“tossed her rank around,” com
plains Cpl. William J. Thompson.
He asked for a divorce Wednes
day in testimony filed for a court
hearing later. He expects to be
sent to Korea soon.
The wife, now at Fort Lee, Va.,
has not filed an answer yet.
Thompson said when he met
his wife in Germany a year and
a half ago she was just a sergeant
“and everything was fine.”
But by the time they were mar
ried Jan. 2, Ruth had been pro
moted to lieutenant. The corporal
said “everything was changed. She
said she didn’t love me any more.”
“She said she intended to make
a career in the Army,” Thompson
said. “I don’t want an Army brass
hat for a wife.”
EMPIRE STATE BUILDING
MOORING MAST AIDS TV
NEW YORK, (AP)— Originally
designed as a mooring mast for
airships in the days of the Zeppe
lins, the tower that makes up the
top floors of the il 02-story Empire
State building finally has come
into its own.
The tower now houses a mast
that bears the antennas of five
of the New York area’s seven
television stations. WNBT.WCBS
TV, WABD, WJZ-TV, and WPIX
send out their programs simulta
neously without interference al
though their antennas are located
within a short distance of each
other on the mast. Addition of
the mast to the tower increased
the bulding’s extreme height to
almost 1,500 feet.

Ursa Major, or the Big Dipper,
is a good and convenient con
stellation in the northern sky
from which it is possible to locate
other constellations and stars.
If the curvature of the Dipper
handle is continued down for a
distance equal to the entire length
of the Dipper, you will discover
the brilliant star called Arcturus.
During the World’s Fair in Chica
go held in 1933, the light from
this star was used to turn the key
which opened the gate to the fair.
The light was amplified upon
falling on an electrophoto plate.
Queen Elizabeth II

Returns to London
For King's Funeral
LONDON. (/P)— Young Queen
Elizabeth II returned to her home
land yesterday to ascend the
throne and bury King George VI.
The 25-year-old queen of the
United Kingdom and the Domin
ions overseas reached London Air
port at 4:15 p.m. after a flight
from Nairobi, Kenya. It was ex
j uctly a week since she left Lon
don, as Princess Elizabeth, to
make a round-the-world-tour of
five months.
A plain oak coffin was being
prepared for the remains of her
father, King George VI. The fu
neral will be held next week.
The four-engine transport car
rying the royal party set down
after a one-stop flight. Prime
Minister Winston Churchill head
ed the official delegation on hand
to welcome the new queen.
The royal family was repres
ented by the Duke and Duchess
of Gloucester, aunt and uncle of
the queen. Another uncle, the
Duke of Windsor, is sailing home
from New York to attend the
funeral.
The scene at the airport was a
cheerless one, in the gathering
gloom of the early English twi
light. The airport was ringed by
scores of policemen sent to keep
the arrival private. Prime Minis
ter Churchill had appealed to the
public in advance to stay away
from the airport and respect the
queen’s grief.
Elizabeth wore a black hat and
coat. The duke, in a dark over
coat, was hatless.
The Order of the Good Time,
one of the first social clubs in
America, was organized by the
explorer Champlain to cheer his
men during the winter of 1606-07.
