The foreilgn minister, who a
decade ago signed his coun
try’s surrender to the allies,
did not go into details in his
discussion of Japan’s rearma

No gap in DEW line
OTTAWA (/P) Canadian de
fense officials know of no gaps
jin the Distant Early,, Warning
(DEW) radar line between
Greenland and Alaska, a de
fense department spokesman
Said yesterday.
He was commenting on a
statement unlade Saturday atj
Lake Stevens, Wash., by Sen. |
Henry Jackson (D-Wash) t'hat 1
a critical hole has been found
in the DEW line and the U. S. i
defense department is. taking j
rapid steps to plug it. !
The 250 million dollar line
j is being (paid for by the United
States.
We don’t know ot any basic
change in line line,’’ the spokes
man said. “Construction is
progressing favorably and on
schedule.”
“Anyway,” he added, “you
can’t have gaps in something
that doesn’t exist.”
The line is not yet in oper
ation and probably wont be
until 1057.
Dulles reports
in their Iborder dispute. The;
two nations have ibeen involv
ed for weeks in bloody skirm-;
isihes in the Gaza area.
2. Israel and the Arab gov-;
ermments are studying Dulles’:
proposal of last Friday for an;
American guarantee of a peace
settlement if they can make
one. The reaction of those
countries will determine what
the United States will do next
in trying to get a settlement.
3. The United States must
maintain patience and hope in
negotiations with Red China
at Geneva for the release of
American civilians detained
on the Chinese mainland.
Dulles said he did not feel any
great encouragement with re
spect to the Geneva talks so
far except as he believes that
with the passage of time some
result eventually will be a
chieved.

WHITE SOX FACE TOUGH
WEEK TO KEEP IN RACE
The second place Chicago
White Sox, s tumbling along
like the rest of the American
league contenders, take their
first does of kill ’em or cure

All the White Sox baye to do
is play two games with fourth
place Boston and four with
third place Cleveand in the
next six diays.
■Manager Marty Marion’s guys
aren’t exactly sickly, not when
they’re just a half game behind
first place New York. But they
aren’t really robust, either, af
ter losing five of their last
eight — and with four of the
defeats at the hands of seventh,
place Washington and last place1
Baltimore.
If Marty’s Sox turn hot, they
could be sittinlg pretty as they
miake their final swing through
the east next week. If they drop
the two series, it might be all
over.
Baltimore kept up its “re
surrection” yesterday, Slapping
fifth place Detroit 13!f> games
back by sweeping a douiblehead
er 6-0 and 4-3. That was the
only action in the American
league.
In tihe National, Brooklyn

the tie in their own favor.
Technically Seattle leads the
league on percentage with a
.001 edge but the two clubs are
tied on games. The Stars even
ed it up last night with a 3-2

NEW YORK (TP) Caught short
Someone with an elastic tape
measure has been around tak
j inlg new soundings on the phy
! sidal makeups of Rocky Mar
BHmnHnHnraHnmHHMPsH
ciano and Archie Moore, and
then comparing them with Mar
ciano's structure of 1951, arid
Moore’s 1952 measurements.
The results are slightly bewild
ering. Marciano, at 5 feet IIV2
has grown an inch, and Moore
at 5 feet 11, has shrunk an inch
Moore’s arms also have di
minished in length. His reach
three years ago was 78 inches,
and now it is 75¥2 inches.
Rocky’s wingspread has increas
ed from 67 to 68 inches. The
champion, in fact, appears to
have expanded in all directions,
as his 32 inch waist now is a
perfect 35. Moore has remained
about the same in most mea
surements, although he gained
a couple of inches around the
calf. The statistics must be ac
curate. At least, Archie’s age
was measured at 35 three years
ago, and it’s 38 now. We’d have
been a little suspicious if it was
given as 35 both times.
The best average score does
not necessarily mean the most
money on the pro golf circuit.
Ted Krol'l had an average of
70.23 strokes for 70 rounds,
good for the lead in the Vandon
Cup competition, but was sev
enth in earnings for the year at
the latest accounting. He had
I earned $17,322.11. Julius Boros
the leader in earnings with
$61,971.65, wasn’t even in the
first five in the Vardon ratings,
but he was smart enough to
win the $50,000 World title. In
other words, it isn’t how you
