He said he accepted the position "with considerable difficulty" because of his pleasant associations in Minnesota. "I BELIEVE we have made significant progress in further development of a sound and progressive mental health program during the years I have been here. Much greater improvement can and should be made in the future," Cameron said. "We shall miss Dr. Cameron's initiative, imagination and aggressive presentation of the needs of Minnesota's mentally ill and mentally retarded." Hursh said.

"He has also made significant contributions to the programs for crippled children and control of tuberculosis in state institutions," Hursh said. Twin Cities May City Game Wisconsin ji for Rose Bow!

P.

K. Peterson, moves on to a state office. Matthews is longtime chairman of the Hennepin county board. Martens is ninth ward alderman and president of the city council. Kent Youngdahl, former second ward alderman who made an unsuccessful bid for the mayoralty this spring, said he is not a candidate for anything in the foreseeable future.

THESE revelations came at an interim session of about 80 delegates to the 1958 DFL fifth district convention, held in the city hall yesterday. Martens, fifth district DFL chairman, said the meeting was called to hear progress reports on party activities leading up to what he said promises to be a vigorous campaign to unseat the nine-term GOP incumbent congressman, Walter H. Judd. He said several potential candidates for Judd's seat were on hand and he would call on them not for the purpose of having then announce their candidacy but to express their views on the 1960 campaign. It was soon evident that Matthews, whom he called upon first, didn't mean to be restricted.

-I THINK it's very bad form for a person to announce his candidacy," said Matthews, who was prevented only by illness from running for congress in 1956. "But I have stated to friends that I will be a candidate if I am chosen by the district screening committee and the district convention. "I am available for this office. I have contacted 350 people who are willing to work to see. that we get a new congressman in this district.

A number of people mentioned here today have said they will support me if I am chosen; I'll support one of them if he is chosen." (Matthews has been lining up commitments for some weeks.

Cameron, state medical director, said Sunday that he will resign i post Jan.

The Associated Press reported that it had learned from an "unimpeachable source" that Cameron would return to the surgeon general office, with which he was associated previously. CAMERON SAID no successor has been named for the state job. The appointment will be made by Morris Hursh, state public health commissioner, after recommendations by the mental health policy committee.

"1 am naturally disappointed with some of the appropriations made at the last state legislative session, but they are not included in my reasons for leaving," Cameron said. He believes some appropriations are inadequate. He indicated that the fed S. D. Mother, 3 Children Die in Crash Special to the Minneapolis Tribune DAVIS, S.

IT Gnn 15 Women 122 eh 4 I 10 of 12 Clubs Vote Approval Ten of the 12 National Football league (NFL) own ers have approved the re quest of Minneapolis-St. Paul for a franchise in the NFL starting with the 1960 season, according to Charles Johnson, executive sports editor of the Minneapolis Star and Tribune. At the same time, backers of the Twin City entry in the newly organized American league are considering withdrawal. Johnson spoke for Max Winter, E.

W. Boyer and H. P. Skoglund, the same group which has held the franchise in the American league. Johnson's announcement was made before yesterday's AFL organizational meeting in Minneapolis' Pick-Nicollet hotel.

Later, after a heated six-hour session. Lamar Hunt, president of the Dallas, Texas, team in the new loop, said reports that the Twin Cities entry is pulling out of the American league to join the NFL are "unfounded," Associated Press said. DETAILS of the Minneapolis-St, Paul entry in the NFL have not been spelled out yet, according to Johnson, but they will be soon. Plans call for the Twin Cities franchise to be admitted to the National Football league along with Dallas for the 1960 season, expanding the 12-club circuit to 14. Minneapolis applied for the National franchise three months ago.

Originally, Hous ton, Texas, had the inside track but the Twin Cities was selected as a replacement when Houston was unable to find a stadium. Withdrawal of Min-neapolis will leave the AFL with seven members Los Angeles, New York; Houston; Dallas; Denver, Boston, and Buffalo, N. Y. Lamar Hunt, owner of the Dallas club in the AFL, said yesterday's 1 opments "are nothing new. No matter, the AFL will operate in 1960 and we are going ahead with draft plans." As the AFL prepared for its first draft meeting in Minneapolis today.

Winter said he had received a wire from Chicago Bear owner George Halas, chairman of the National league's expansion committee, assuring 10 of 12 votes for the Twin Cities entry. IS CHICAGO, Halas confirmed that 10 of the 12 NFL teams had approved the request. He said one vote was withheld and one negative but declined to name the teams.

"The lean young soldier, subject to nervous rashes and fits of rage, had become obese. "His mental activity was lower. He wanted to sleep more. He did not make decisions with the same im-periousness." These symptoms, said Kemble, meant Frohlich's disease.

Physical sluggishness and retarded sexual development. The result of disturbed pituitary function." "He was estimated as a young man to weigh between 121 and 132." said Kemble.

(UPI) President Eisenhower will end his Georgia holiday today. He is to fly back to Washington for a round of conferences on the new budget and on international affairs preparatory to his departure on his 11 -nation tour Dec. 3. The plans for his return to the capital were announced Sunday after he and Mrs. Eisenhower went to the Reid Memorial Presbyterian church.

Mr. Eisenhow er played golf after church and an early lunch, and probably will work in another game today before taking off. IV WASHINGTON' there will be new meetings on the military' budget for fiscal 1961, a meeting of the national security council and possibly a news conference this week. Also, there have heen some suggestions that Mr. Eisenhower might find it advisable to speak to the American people before leaving for Europe, the Middle East and Asia.

A press conference might suffice, from his point of view. Nov. 30 he will brief Democratic and Republican con-gressorial lraders on his travel plans. Vice President Nixn and Secretary of State Hrrter will at- attend this meetirg. Mr.
