that he regretted the overtone Russell's statement angered Sen Alexander Wiley Wis whose questioning raised the issue He the chairman he resents the charge that he was politically motivated Wiley said that in demanding testimony about the April 6 White House conference which preceded MacArthur's recall he sought only to maintain thc dignity and thc power of the Senate Asserting that the tion has no right to withhold any information needed by Congress Wiley told committee members the question before them was whether they are mice or men The Interrupted testimony on day after lie had told the com-

support from everyone who lias Yuma's welfare and future development at heart Baseball Day has been proclaimed in order that the Yuma area can give financial to a worthy and important community Yuma Panthers baseball team The Panthers are in financial difficulties and will not be able to finish the current season unless they receive help immediately To make it easy for the community to extend this needed financial the Yuma County Sports Association is launching a one-day advanced ticket sale on Saturday Books of ten tickets are being sold for 57.50 each At least of these books must be sold If the Campaign is to be a success The ten tickets are good for any remaining Panther home games so that every purchaser will receive lull value for the money he invests in the campaign This is not a campaign for donations or gifts Aside from the fact that organized baseball fills a recreational and entertainment need in this com- munity the existence of the Panthers is important to Yuma in other ways First of all it keeps Yuma on the map in the minds of hundreds of thousands of fans who are devoted to the Great American Game It gives Yuma a certain stature among cities where organized baseball has its homes It is a form of prestige that cannot be purchased any other way Secondly the existence of the Panthers is the most Important single reason for maintaining the Panther Park as a baseball that park it- self has already brought the San Diego Padres here for Spring training and undoubtedly will attract major league teams from the East in future years The effect of this one factor alone is worth all the effort and support this community can exert The value of having a big league baseball team come to Yuma for Spring training can ly be assessed but it is a well known fact that cities throughout the warmer areas of the U S are fighting to attract a team Few of them however are as well fied as Yuma from the standpoint of climate And now since organization of the Panthers has made possible an excellent ball park there is no reason to believe that Yuma will not soon host a big league club Yuma would be foolish at this point to allow the Panthers to fail because of lack of support Chinese Red Attack Fails To Collapse Allied Line Russia Challenges Assembly Right To Ban Arms Shipments WASHINGTON May he vote by which the Senate MacArthur investigating com- decided 18 to
