Tension is indeed great when fighting men of one nation will open fire on a plane from another nation if that plane happens to lose its way and wander across the border.

That indicates fear of sneak attacks.

The second smallest crowd to see a Border Conference game in post-war play, if not in history, watched the Miners march 60 yards on 12 plays through mist and mud in the final period to take the decision.

Reds Reject West' Plan To Disarm Paris.

(AP) Andrei Y. Vi- Members of the race committee who will check the winning cars after they cross the finish line Sunday in Juarez, arrived in El Paso Saturday to set up testing operations. They will make certain that the souped-up car models have no extra gadgets that would disqualify them. Arriving from Mexico City by American Airlines were Octavio Montero Garessi, (left) and Manuel Robleda automotive experts. A three-man committee will inspect up to 15 or 18 cars before the winners become official.

Brumbelow, in his second year as TWC coach, predicted before the season's start that his inexperienced squad would win two and one-half games. The Miners went into Saturday's contest with a determination to make it good. Their final record for the season showed seven defeats. Gerald Campbell, finishing his collegiate career in a blaze of glory, put the Miners back into the game in the late minutes of the second period with a 70-yard punt return.

Ed Ammons, on a dying-gasp extra point try, handed TWC a 7-6 edge at intermission. Midway in the fourth quarter of the potentially-explosive game, acting Captain Bud Roland pulled down a West Texas pass on the Miner 40 to set the winning drive on its way. Freshman Jack Burris blasted through from the six-inch line 12 plays later for the touchdown. The game was filled to the brim with all possible thrills. Freezing temperatures, misting rain and occasional flakes of snow which fell on the Amarillo Stadium gridiron and a muddy ball brought on eight fumbles, four for each team.

The Soviet foreign minister lambasted the formula sponsored by the United States, Britain and France in a speech before the 60 member United Nations Political Committee. He complained the Western plan did not go far enough toward re ducing the dangers of war.

He said Chapter 1: Adam looked fearfully around the Garden of Eden as Eve swayed prettily and tempted him with the golden fruit.

Then he presented his amendments, by which the plan would be rewritten almost completely to conform to Soviet ideas. Ambassador Philip C. Jessup, U. S.

Jessup and spokesmen for Britain and France indicated they will go ahead with work on the L-3 I i I The other racers will follow Taruffi from the starting point at one-minute intervals. Tony Bettenhausen, racing ace from Tinley Park, 111., kept the promise he made Friday in Du-rango to "run like a scalded cat" and Saturday won the Parral-Chi-huahua lap of the race by roaring his 1951 Chrysler Saratoga into the state capital in 1 hour, 39 minutes and 21 seconds. Officials estimated his average racing time at 112 miles per hour. Bettenhausen started out from Mexico City in 45th place and Saturday, with his lap win, moved into 16th place.

(AP) Allied infantrymen Sunday grappled hand-to-hand with up to a division of Chinese Reds in an effort to keep their precarious hold on two vital snow-swept peaks in Western Korea. The battle for "Little Gibraltar" and another peak nearby was deep in its second day and still "50-50" in the words of an Eighth Army spokesman. The ridge line dominates the strategically important area 35 miles north of Seoul. It appeared that staff officers at Panmunjom would not be able to draw their cease-fire line on the Western front until the battle is decided. Both armies, realizing that they were playing for keeps if an armistice line is drawn within 30 days, rushed fresh troops to the line.

The Chinese were using at least two regiments and possibly a division. The Allies kept the size of their force secret, but the importance of the battle might force them to match the Reds. Fierce fighting raged on the Eastern peak, a Gibraltar-like conical crest that dominates th By FULTON OERSLER CHAPTER 1 Adam and Eve Adam opened his eyes and looked into the face of His Maker. It was his first act in the world as he stood, tall and straight and naked, his feet in the red earth. Blue eyes were full of wonder and a vast and perfect innocence.

The beating of the first man's heart, the breath of his lungs, the sweetness of woods and flowers in his nostril, the wind in his yellow hair and its coolness on his bare skin, all were mingled with a mystical feeling of something greater, gratitude to this Presence before Which he was standing, thankfulness to the Lord God. the Father, who had formed him from hat he was solitary; wishing his first desire that someone else were beside him, so that they could look together. God, compassionately watching his lonely tramps through the garden, said to Himself: "It is not good that the man should be alone." From distant reaches of the garden he summoned the lesser creatures that he had formed out of the ground, all trooping in procession before the melancholy Adam, who stood at review beside God. And at the Father's suggestion, Adam gave names to the birds and the animals, and at the end of it he received his own name, Adam, from the "red earth," and the "dust of the ground." Warmed in God's clasp, the fragment of Adam changed and grew until she stood on small bare feet in the cool grass, while tender fingers touched her eyelids and she heard a Voice bidding her to open and look. Adam groaned heavily in nis sleep.

Half-turning, he stared through blurred eyes and saw the new creature. A cry burst from his mouth as love at first sight to him and to her; the love of man and woman. Adam leaped up, joy in his shouts. Eve he would name her, the mother of all living, and with Eve man need never again be lonely. There has been no happier marriage since than those long happy years of Adam and Eve in the Garden.

The only fear of Adam and Eve was the fear of displeasing God, which was a part of their love for Him. They never misunderstood each other, and they were never bored. They lived in Paradise and there was no excuse for the wickedness that now they were to commit. The time had come for the happy pair to be tested. So there came presently into the peace and quiet of their abode a handsome and plausible stranger.

One afternoon (Continued on Page 2, CoL 1) Yet the blue loneliness lingered i in his eyes. Pitying Adam, God i dreamed again the Creator's dream, making a new wonder for His plan in the hope some progress toward a genuine system of disarmament is still possible. A British spokesman said his delegation felt Vishinsky, by his amendments, was trying to inject into the three-power resolution the Soviet disarmament program made up of all the old Russian themes. A French spokesman expressed the view Vishinsky had left the door open to negotiation. The net effect of the speech, eagerly awaited all week, was that the Russians had reiterated their opposition to the Western proposals and had not moved one inch toward accepting them, but had shown they were willing to keep talking.

Vishinsky's plan, containing not one new major element, calls for an unconditional ban now on atomic weapons, the establishment under the Security Council of a strict international control organ to carry out the reduction of armaments and enforcement of regulations to that effect, and for a cut by one-third in the armed forces of the United States, France, Britain, China and the Soviet Union within one year after the assembly accepts those provisions.

Edwin C.

Johnson demanded Saturday that Defense Department officials "come clean and tell the whole truth" about confusing reports of American atrocity victims in Korea. Congressional wrath was fanned by disclosure of Gen. Matthew B. Ridgway's report to the United Nations that about 8000 American prisoners of war had been reported slain by North Korean and Chinese Communists. This report seemed inconsistent with his statement on Tuesday that as many as 6000 American troops may have been atrocity victims in Korea, but that the total number of proven victims is only 365.

"Every day they change the report," Johnson (D-Colo.) said. "They add more and more confusion and consternation and it looks as though we are guessing. "Guessing in a case of this kind is cruel and barbarous to the parents, wives and relatives of American soldiers missing in action. "They ought to tell the whole truth. Unless they come clean it appears to me that defense officials should be called before the Armed Services Committee in closed session to let the committee get the facts." In Tokyo, Vice President Alben W.

More than 100 business firms have agreed to co-operate with the women with the poll tax books in allowing them to canvass their organizations. A drive to blanket all business houses during December will be made, to allow most of January for a final campaign through poll tax booths. Men's service clubs also have been contacted by the publicity committee of the poll tax contest, sponsored by the Woman's Club of El Paso, and women will attend regular meetings of the clubs to sign up their membership. On Dec. 3 the clubs taking part in the competition will draw names of firrr.s signed up for the drive, to opt the canvass.

Kel-ley, local manager for the utility, said Saturday.

A public hearing on the proposed increase will be held at 10 a. m. Monday in the City Council Chamber. Kelley last week submitted to the Council a supplementary report indicating that $447,520 would be needed to bring the company's earnings up to an approved fair rate return of 6 per cent. "After we had prepared our original report to support our request for a rate boost there was some difference among the auditors as to the method of evaluating the company's property for a rate base." Kelley said.

"Our supplementary report brought the figures up to date, reflecting additional costs to us of natural gas and equipment. That is what we would be entitled to on our rate base, but we are asking only the original amount." The proposed increase would range from 17.3 per cent for residential users to 42.5 per cent for El Paso's public schools. Most of the discussion Monday is expected to center around the method used in computing the rate base, cost or present replacement value. a. m.

A note presented envoys of the four nations by Acting Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko contended the proposed regional arm of the North Atlantic Alliance is directed against both Russia and the countries of the Middle East. "The Soviet government cannot ignore these new aggressive designs which are embodied in the establishments of a Middle East command in regions close to the boundaries of the USSR," the note said.
