Building At Club Blasted EDWARDSVILLE A small block building on the Onized Club grounds in Godfrey was rocked by an explosion Friday, apparently after some sters had unknowingly left a gas oven on, the Madison County sheriff's office reported. The explosion raised the roof about a foot and blew out the south wall.

An employe at the club grounds said the building will have to be rebuilt. Caretaker Hubert Allensworth discovered the badly damaged building when he arrived for work at 8 a.m. Friday. Allensworth had left the premises at 4 p.m. Friday.

The sheriff's office said the burner and oven knobs on the oven had been turned on. Sheriff Barney Fraundorf theorized that gas fumes filled the room and were ignited by a spark from the motor of a soda machine which was in operation, "I think some kids probably got in the building Thursday and turned the oven on without knowing better." Fraundorf said.

Mills Says Chairman, Not LB.J Calls Shots By JOHN BECKLER I WASHINGTON (AP)-The notion that Congress is a "rubber stamp" for President Johnson has been rudely challenged by one of the real rulers of Captol Hill-Rep. Wilbur D. Mills. Mills, Arkansas Democrat who is chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee, shelved two administration proposals last week, Illustrating a fact that the public sometimes forgets. In Congress, the chairmen of the committees call the shots, not the President.

Mills put aside administration bills that would have liberalized trade with Communist nations In Eastern Europe and revamped state unemployment insurance systems. "I am not for It," he said, in announcing he would not even introduce the trade bill. "Federal standards are out." be said in disclosing that his committee had cut the heart out of the administration's unemployment insurance bill and would write a new one following suggestions made by the states.

KNUTSON CHICAGO (AP) A loud knocking on the door of University of Chicago President George W. Beadie's home marked the formal end of a mass student demonstration against the school's policy of supplying information to draft boards. But President Beadle was not home Friday night to receive the message, 60 a outlining the students' stand was slipped under his front door. Moments earlier, most of the 350 students who had occupied and controlled the administration building since Wednesday across the darkened campus, blending freedom songs with the chimes of the university carillon. They left behind a token of 25 protestors to maintain a 124-bour a day sit is (hot dog concession at carnivals.

The other defendants are Mrs. Baniszewski, 37; two of her seven children, Paula, 18, and John, 13, and another neighbor boy, Coy Hubbard, also 15. Another Baniszewski daughter, Stephanie, 15, was charged in the killing and was granted a separate trial. Hobbs, first defendant to admit inflicting any of the 150 wounds on Sylvia's body, said he tattooed the girl because "Gertrude told me to do those things on her abdomen." The words, "I am a prostitute and proud of it" were tattooed on the victim. Hobbs could give no reason for branding a figure 3 on her chest.

He testified Mrs. Baniszewski started the tattoo with a needle, then "she sald she was getting sick so she handed me the needle and told me to finish it." Hobbs said the only other injuries he inflicted on Sylvia were striking her chest with his hand "maybe four or five times" while he tattooed her because "she'd flinch a little." The defendant said he returned to the Baniszewski home the night Sylvia died, three days after the tattooing. "Gertrude was crying," he said. "She was scared." He said Sylvia "was still I got down beside her and her mouthto-mouth resuscitation, I noticed her skin was cold so I thought a warm bath might help some." The youth said that while Stephanie and John gave Sylvia a bath he took Mrs. a Baniszewski downstairs "because she was too frantic." In cross examining Hobbs, deputy prosecutor LeRoy K.

New asked whether Hobbs wasn't trying to kill Sylvia rather than give her artificial ration. "You were afraid you'd be caught up with, weren't you?" New asked. "You kept your weight on her so she couldn't breathe, didn't you? You were tromping on her." "No sir," Hobbs replied.

decision not to introduce the trade bill, said the President still hopes Congress will act as soon as possible on the measure. Another illustration of a chairman's power was furnished recently by Rep. Adam Clayton Powell, when he refused to call up an administration-backed bill already approved by his Education and Labor Committee that would permit on-site picketing by construction unions. Powell's stand demonstrated that a determined chairman can even override the speaker of the House, Speaker John W. McCormack, is reported to be strongly committed to passage of the bill.

But unless Powell changes his mind, there will be no situs picketing bill this year. Chairman get their broad powers from the House rules, but power must be wielded boldly to be effective. And they have to have the support of a majorIty of their committee members. Mills commands support in the Ways and Means Committee through a brilliant combination of political skill, legislative acumen and knowledge of his subject. Powell plays rough.

"Remember, I have to sign your travel vouchers," he tells members repeatedly to forestall any attempts to override him. Some chairmen make allances to command a majority. But others fail to use the power and become captives of more aggressive junior members who do. Hershey Talk At Belleville EDWARDSVILLE-Lt. General Lewis B.
