"Evil That Men Do
Lives After Them"
The havoc created by the- late
Senator McCarthy's sensational
foray into the Army's Fort. Mon-
mouth Signal Corps base five
years ago has at last been re-
paired. Of the 33 employees
suspended on security grounds
by the Army In a futile and
-craven effort to placate the
Senator, 33 have' now been re-
stored to their jobs. Not one
of these cases had any substance.
,Twenty-five of Mr, McCarthy's
-victims were reinstated by the
Army itself; two more were re-
instated after they had filed
suits; and on Thursday a panel
of the CoOrt' of Appeals for the
District of Columbia Circuit• held
unanimously that the Army had'
violated its own . regulations,;•
when it reetteed .„toetell the re- ,
-"retaining siXi employee why.it had '
disrhissecl them as security risks.
There' is, no way to measure
the 'damage done by McCarthy
in his Fort Monmouth adventure,
not alone to the hapless indi-
viduate involved but to the na-
tional security as well, The Sig-
nal Corps was engaged in im-
portant aspects of missile re-
search at Fort Monmouth, and a
number of the suspended em-
ployes were top experts in the
research program. The Mc-
Carthy charges not only took
these experts out of service; it
also made recruitment of scien-
tists more difficult and shattered
the morale of all those employed
at Fort Monmouth. When one
reflects that not a shred of
evidence has ever been adduced
to support the reckless McCarthy
charges of espionage at Fort
Monmouth, one can hardly es-
cape the conclusion that hiteand-
run driving can be a's disastrous
in politics as on the highway.

Expert View Of
Relief Pitching
Fresco Thompson, a -Dodger
vice-president in eNce 11 0 n t
standing, largely blames major
league managers Or the break-,
doWn in relief pitching,
""Managers," he stated bluntly,
"have.made (starting) pitchers
relief-pitcher conscious.
"In the third or fourth in-
ning, if he gets in trouble, the
pitcher stands out there on the
rubber with one eye on the bull-
pen and one eye on the hitter,
11 he had a third "rye," Fresco
added, "chances are he'd keep
That one on the manager in the
dugout,"
It is Fresco's thesis that pit-
chers this year are more afraid
than ever of making a wrong
pitch because he knows that to
do so, more often than not,
means his immediate removal
from the game by his own mana-
ger. •
Further, thinks Thompson, the
categorizing of relief pitchers as
early-inning, middle-inning and
late-innng specialists is non-
sense,
"It is absolutely ridiculous,"
he declared emphatically. "Five.
years ago you didn't even hear
of the 'long man' and the 'short
man.' Now if your fella gets in
trouble early in the game, you
go to your 'long man.' On this
club that would be someone like
Klippstei,n, who you can count
on to go five, six, seven innings.
"Labine has been used as a
short Man because, with that
sinker, he can get out of the
jam," Fresco explained.
"Labine," said Fresco reck-
lessly coining a phrase, "has ice
water in his veins. That's what
makes him such a fine relief
pitcher.
"Clem goes in with the atti-
tude, 'I'm going to do my best
and if I don't get anybody out
today then maybe "I'll get some-
body out next tee," a c1 d e cl
Fresco.
"A relief pitcher," he warmed
to his subject, "has got to be a
very cool sort of character. He
mustn't feel the end of the world
has come if he doesn't get out
of a jam."
Following Fresco , Thompson's
line of reasoning, then, cool very
definitely is the word for Clem
Labin e. During one recent
stretch Clem worked in nine of
the 12 games played by the.
Dodgers. In 15 innings he per-
mitted., two unearned runs. He
is credited with having saved
five of those games for his
teammates.
While the vice-president's ad-
miration for. Clem Labine is sin-
cere and obvious, Fresco con-
tends the art of relief pitching
has grown out of all -proportion,
"Kids are running faster' 'to-
day and jumping higher," he
argued, "so there is no reason
why pitchers shouldn't be able
to pitch longer.:
"I 'don't believe , there will :be'
two pitchers in each league who
will approach 20 complete ball
.games this season," Fresco
charged,
T h i s, the man considers a
crime.. In the past few, years, the
Dodger vice - president believes,
the number- of complete games
has 'been cut by nearly 50' per
cent,
"G6 back to the Giants under
Terry," Fresco invited. "You'll
,
find that Hubbell, Schumacher,
-Parmelee. and. Castleman work-
sad 'every., fourth day. Nol only
that, but nine., .times, ,out of 10

to winked, "with the ,exception

Arrived Drunk
But Won. Race
The weather was very hot, and
the sculler sampled too much
eider at a local pub. He got so
clrimk that when he arrived at
the clubhouse for his race he
had to be helped into the boat.
Small wonder that he only row-
ed ten strokes and then collaps-
ed into the water,
Not realising that he w a s
drunk, the crowd cheered him
when he swam ashore and got
into his boat again, But his un-
expected swim had, no doubt,
sobered him up; for the sculler
— not an Englishman — soon
overhauled his rivals and went
ahead to win by fourteen
lengths !
That was one lee the many
amusing and excifing incidents
in the long history of Henley
Royal Regatta, to 'which sports,
men flock from all over the
world.
Even those who have no par-
ticular interest in rowing enjoy
visiting the picturesque Chiltern
town of Henley-on-Thames.
When Henley Regatta was ir-
augurated, more than a century
ago, it was confined to Oxford
and Cambridge men and to a
handful of boys from the an-
cient public schools Even as late
as the 1930's, other oarsmen
were not allowed to compete.
Nowadays all that has chang-
ed. This year the competitors in-
elude a bricklayer from Camdee
Road, London; a cement mixer
from Broad Street, Birmingham,
and a dock labourer from Step-
ney.
Oxford and Cambridge still
predominate, and so does Eton,
but everyone races for the love
of racing. •
Perhaps the most exciting fin-
ish in the regatta's' history oc-
curred in the semi-final of the
Grand Challenge Cup during
the' 1920's, when London Rowing
Club raced a grim struggle
against the Canadian Argo-
nauts. There was never more
than six feet separating them all
the way,
At the finish one of the judges
gave London the verdict by six
inches; others said it was a dead-
heat.
Another tense race occurred
at about the same time when
Tom Brocklebank, the 'C a m -
bridge boat race stroke, was
leading comfortably in the Dia-
mond Sculls. Unfortunately he
became so 'excited ehat,• in "mak-
ing his final spurt, he capsized
and fell out of his boat, leaving
his rival to,draw ahead, and win.
EVen more,. amusing except
for the"yietim was-the race a
year 'or two ago in' which the
Northern ' Ireland Methodist
schoolboys competed at. Henley
for the first time. They were
approaching the 'Winning post
with a good lead when one of
the crew caught a crab and was
catapulted into the water., The
'unlucky, lads lost by It few. feet.
"Henry," puffed the fat old--
lady plaintively as her old hus-
band failed to assist her onto
the bus, "you ain't as gallant' as
when I was a gal."
"I know, toots," puffed back '
Henry, "and you ain't as buoy-
ant as when I was a- boy:"

Introduction To,
Woods And Wilds
Through chance, I had the
happiness the other day of play-
ing host to a Mr. and Mrs. John
Paxton of New Jersey, Who had
never been in Maine before but
were willing to learn, They said
they had a good tithe.
It was a lovely day — for a
change. Warm in the sun, but a
breeze off the mountains, and
conditions right for those fly
hatches which keep the trout
enthusiastic. So we went along
the big lake and left our boat
where the trail takes off to a
mountain pond that shall be
nameless. We walked the wood's
trail until we came to this pond,
where I knew there were boats.
We also knew nobody else was
using them.
There are many gustatory ex-
periences in this world which
haVe, their supporters, but there
is nothing to top,a feed of East-
ern Brook ,Trout taken from the
cold northern waters and slap-
ped 'into an inch of salt pork fat
at 'the soonest possible oppor-'
tunity. There are many trouts,
including the salmons, but of
them all the Eastern Brookie is
e king, queen, and speaker of the
house. '.
These that I speak of are not
hatchery fish, „introduced by
state conservationists, but native
,fish. They are descendants •of
those prehistoric sea-run trout•
who crowded up our rivers' after *-
the glacial age, and then stayed
..either by, choice or by. chance.
Up at the head of this pond is
a vast, cedar swamp and Logan,,
a jungle of roots and pools, and -
there these aboriginal' trout:
have spawned since time began.
They still spawn there, and their
offspring feed down through the
streams and ponds to stock the 0
waters of a whole region. 'This
pond :is seldom fished, at least
to the , extent 'near-by. -sporting
areas are, and accordingly is a
sure-fire place' to 'take newly
come, Visitors to teach them the
. good 'things, of life.
-Along the trail, on the way
up' to the pond, the Paxtons ask -
er, "Are there any bear in
there?" We .had already passed
several signs of bears, recently
active—includieg.a-stump pound-
ed to splinters 'by some 'old
raimeher lookirig for ants. But I
hadn't mentioned this, mostly
because people like to hear bear
stories without any, pretext of
believing theme "Oh, yes," I.
could dould have said. But I told theni
bears are nocturnal, and shy, and
can outrun a deer—arid it is
seldotn anybody sees one at
large "How about deer?" We had
been coming along with deer
signs all around us'_ for eyes
that could see. Moosewood tips
snipped off, patches of hair on-
spettee bark, tracks all up and
down the muddy parts of the
trail. I showed then a deer
"crossing"-ea place like a tow-
path in a pasture. It had rained
hard the night before, and deer
prints only hours old had been
punched there.
The, Paxtons showed interest,
but naturally eotildn't envision
What I did—for I've seen deer
crossing such places. There'll be
an old buck on ahead, warily
poking his antlere from the puck-
erbrush arid looking up and
down, and after lint the old doe
anti. a fawn. They all mince
across and into the forest egaiii
•—silently and like shadows. If
the old boy gets wind of you
he'll blow, a ,warning kind of
deer bellow that sends, every-
body escatriperitig, But the Paet-
tons ifirIn't see any deer, itilegie
nary 'oil real, that day.-
Thi pond was all ours, except
for ti peir of Merle and a thel
drakt With Five dtieklings, The
loons kept their distance, but the
theldrakes came in close enough
far. US to watch them diving.
And then the Pak1Ons experi.
eneed the thrill of tatchitig their
own dinner. The old jungle urges
that our ancestors followed have
been taken from our lives, but
there is enough of the forgotten
past in all of us so this experi-
ence counts.
You can only do a thing like
this once, because having done
it you become experienced, and
the next time is never the same.
There is that awkward cast of a
beginner, like the first drive of
a navies: golfer or the first crayon
marks of a youngster. A flyline
is a beautiful thing when you
have found • out how it works,
but it is a mean, unconquerable
knot-designing device when you
firstetry it. However, on this par-
ticular day the awkward cast
was just as good as the finest bit
of demonstrating old I. Walton
ever did. There was a splat, and
the trout .was hungry enough so
it didn't care if the angler were
expert.
It's hard to explain, some-
times, why anybody keeps his .
trout. I told them to keep the rod
tip up, but they kept the rod tip
down. They didn't know if there
was tension ors- the line or not,
but they could see the spots on ,
the trout's side. Anyway, there
'was the first time, and we had
enough for dinner.: -
There is the mystery and ma-
gic of kindling .,afire, and a dry
cedar works up' nicest, I think,
