Early Settlement Appears.
Un-likelyDespite Pressure
PITTSBURGH (P) - Steel negotiators, feeling the pressure of
President Dwight D. Eisenhower's request for an early settlement of
the 79-day-old steel strike, met twice yesterday but gave no signs of
nearing a solution.
There was some speculation that the industry may have softened
its position on a one-year wage freeze, but nothing said or done by
the negotiators tended to confirm such optimism.

despite pleas of the government and wishes of their leaders.
As a result, shipping on two thirds of the American coastline was
virtually brought to a standstill.
Hundreds of dry cargo vessels were tied up. Fuel tankers generally
were exceptions because they were handled by other unions.

Even as yesterday's session

of a drop.in revenue due to the

CHICAGO (A)-Muscleman Ted
Kluszewski, a refugee from the
National League, drove in five runs
with two homers and a single for
Chicago's hitless wonders yester-
day while Early Wynn and Gerry
Staley blanked Los Angeles in an
11-0 opening World Series victory.
Big Klu, obtained on waivers
from Pittsburgh Aug. 25, knocked
out both starter Roger Craig and
relief man Chuck Churn with
drives into the right field stands.
The Sox, who usually depend on
speed, clobbered Craig and Churn,
two recalled farmhands from Spo-
kane, for seven runs in the third. .
They started hitting in bright sun-
shine. When they finally finished

ously dispatched from the West

Kluszewski opened his assault

During the big third he finished

a 400-foot power smash into the
upper deck in right in the fourth
with Landis once more trotting
home in front of him.
This eye-opening performance
by a man no National League
team wanted, tied the series record
for runs batted in, held jointly
by Tony Lazzeri and Bill Dickey.
They set the mark on the same
day, Oct. 2, 1936 when the New

New Tax Form
WASHINGTON ()-The Inter-
national Revenue Service yester-
day introduced a new income .tax
form designed to make taxpaying
easier, if no less costly, for 17 mil-
lion Americans.
This is the first all-new tax re-
turn in five years.
Called .form 1040W, it can be
used by anyone whose income con-
sists of wages and salary-regard-
less of amount - plus not more
than $200 of dividends and inter-
est.
Plans for the new return were
announced several weeks ago but
its format was kept secret until
yesterday.
Form 1040W has just two pages
and asks fewer questions than the
four-page form 1040, which is the
standard tax return.
According to Revenue Service
calculations, it should simplify in-
come reporting for 17 million tax-
payers. Copies of the new form will
be mailed to these 17 million soon
after Christmas.

paraded his tanks, guns and war-

th'underous celebration of Red
China's 10th birthday. The site
was the great plaza named the

they met with their top aides for

briefing at their first meeting on

Dwight D. Eisenhower.
The parade was the highlight of
the anniversary celebration.

Dodgers Err
The Dodgers played like they

Berlin Stand
WASHINGTON (A)-The United
States assured Italy yesterday that
President Dwight D. Eisenhower
will firmly uphold basic principle
in negotiating with Russia over the
fate of Berlin and Germany.
Secretary of State Christian A.
Herter gave this assurance to
Italian Prime Minister Antonio
Seni during a discussion of the
outlook for a Berlin settlement.
Informed diplomats said Herter
made it clear that Soviet Premier
Nikita S. Khrushchev's talks with
Eisenhower in no way caused a
basic change in American policy
toward Germany's future.
Eisenhower was reported deter-
mined to accept only a Berlin set-
tlement which genuinely protects
the freedom of West Berliners
while maintaining the goal of a
united democratic Germany.
Segni and his Foreign Minister,
Guiseppe Pella, asked questions of
Herter about Berlin as a followup
The Italian Prime Minister was
reported convinced after yester-
day's talks that Eisenhower has no
intention of making one - sided
concessions to Khrushchev in order
to promote easier relations with
Russia.

. . discusses summit
Europe and of the world since the
war. We have now succeeded in
replacing fear and ultimatum by
discussion and negotiation."
llope for Announcement ,
Conservative circles hoped an
announcement of the summit date
would come before Britons vote
for a new Parliament Thursday.
Such a development, they felt,'
would insure a Conservative vic-
tory. But diplomats thought any
sudden announcement unlikely,
although British newspapers were
predicting the summit meeting
wouldo come before Christmas,
with Geneva the likely site.
Macmillan's Conservatives and:
Hugh Gaitskell's Laborites stepped
up the pace of their campaigns.
Public opinion polls usually very
close to the mark in Britain --
showed the two parties now were
running almost neck and neck,
but with 18 % per cent of the elec-.
torate reporting itself undecided.
Switches Emphasis -
MacMillan switched the empha-
sis in his campaign back to f or-
eign affairs. Labor countered with
a bid for the housewives' vote.
Labor party headquarters is-
sued a statement saying a govern-
ment under Gaitskell would"abol-
ish purchase (sales) tax on essen-
tials such as clothes, furniture
and many household goods."
These taxes already have been
whittled down in eight year's of
Conservative rule.s
MacMillan will represent Brit-
ain at the summit if the Conserv-
atives win a majority in the 630-
seat House of aCommons.
A Labor victory will send Gait-
skell there. And if the two parties
finish in a dead heat - as cur-
rent public opinion samplings in-
dicate they might - the small
Liberal party would hold the bal-
ance of power.
The Liberals could give the pre-
miership and the summit seat to
either Macmillan or Gaitskell de-
pending on which way they threw
their strength. e

'BOOP-EE-DOO-DAH':

Co-ed and Friends Rock with New Record

By NORMA SUE WOLFE
Things are sparkling bright
blue for a University coed who
wrote part of the lyrics and sings
in the chorus of a newly released
rock 'n' roll record.
Marilyn Marsh, '61, was instru-
mental in helping with the lyrics
of "Sparkling Blue" and chimes
in with "Boop-ee-doo-dahs" on
the flip side, "I Want Back My
Ring."
"It's a funny thing how we got
started,' 'Miss Marsh said. "Jerry
Paul, the soloist, has lived down
the street from me all my life.
mria o -.r-1-n

Everyone in the chorus had a
summer job, but they still man-
aged to get together and practice
four times a week for one straight
month, spending three hours at
each session.
"All the neighbors used to stop
eating dinner or doing dishes and
would cone over and listen to us
sing the same' two songs over and
over," the pert brunette said.
Paul and the chorus took the
song to their agent at the end of
the month, but he wasn't pleased
with the lyrics. So Paul and Miss

record was sold to a national com-
pany.
Lists Audience
"It's hard to realize that our
buying audience is composed pri-
marily of 13-year-old girls and
that we have to appeal to them,"
Miss Marsh asserted.
After the tryout period, the suc-
cess of the record can be deter-
mined. Presently, .it is sixth on
the hit parade in Santa Rosa,
Calif. and the number 58 song in
Miami, Fla.
A Cleveland, 0., radio station
has selected it as "Hot Prospect"
