On Wednesday, Pesky's prodigious triple set the stage for a 10-inning win over the Detroit Tigers.

Yesterday, he put his legs to work for another overtime victory. His lOth-in-ning infield single gave the Sox 5 to 4 verdict over the Browns. The Sox moved to within 3 games of first place as Cleveland lost to Washington, J-0. The Yankees were beaten by Detroit, 9 to 2. The standing now reads: Pet.

13 A soft liner off the bat of Alpha a pitcher, kept the Braves' Warren Spahn from baseball glory tonight. The hit was the only one Spahn allowed as he scored his 20th victory, a 2-0 decision over Brazle and the Cardinals. This is the third straight year, and the fourth time in the last five seasons, Spahn has attained the 20-victory goal. "This is the one I wanted," Spahn exulted in the clubhouse Iter the game, "I wasn't thinking terms of a no-hitter, I just wanted that 20th. I never felt better.

Even when I was warming up, I felt as though 1 had it." Spahn almost was put out of commission when a hard line drive off the bat of Del Rice in the third, bounced off his hands, with the glove and the ring finger of his pitching hand taking the brunt of the shock.

Acheson Keeps Job 'as Long as I Am President1--Truman WASHINGTON, Sept. 13 President Truman said today that he may remain in.the White House for a good while yet and that so long as he 'is President, Dean Acheson will remain Sec- retary of State. Mr. Truman, who made the remark at his weekly news conference, laughed until he was red in the face at reporters' furious efforts to draw him out as to whether a good while meant he would be President for the one year, four months and one week remaining in his term or whether it meant four years in addition. He called these shot-gun questions and said reporters would have to do their own speculating.

Contrary to the usual White House press conference custom, he authorized the following quote: "As long as I am President of the United States he (Acheson) is going to be Secretary of State." See TRUMAN Page 16 Party-Bloc Vote Spikes 2-Cent Hike Republicans Vow No Compromise; Offer Own Ideas By SAMUEL B. CUTLER The Republican Senate majority yesterday rejected a two-cent boost in the gasoline tax and virtually served notice that it would refuse to discuss a compromise with the Democratic-controlled House. For the second time, the upper branch insisted on its own bill for a 1.3 cent increase and hikes of 50 percent in registration fees and 25 percent in license fees. The 17-to-13 vote was along straight party lines. The issue now goes back to the House on the question of backing clywn from its proposal to raise the tax from three to five cents.

Both measures would produce approximately $18,000,000 over a 12-month period and nearly $15,000,000 for the remainder of the fiscal year. Of this, $9,000,000 is needed for payments on the highway bond issue this year and $12,000,000 next year. The G. O. P.

program would raise $12,480,000 a year from additional gasoline tax revenue and $5,500,000 from licenses and registrations -( See GAS Page 1 Pilotless Plane Handed Over to New Combat Unit (Pictures on Page 21) WASHINGTON, Sept. 13 (UP) The Air Force disclosed today it is setting up its first Guided Missiles Squadron, to be armed with radically new pilotless planes which might be used to deliver atomic weapons against enemy ground troops on the battlefield. President Truman told his weekly press conference that the jet-propelled missile, already tested and in production, is one of the "fantastic" new weapons he mentioned in a San Francisco speech last week.

VWM WASHINGTON, Sept IS (AP) The Big Three Foreign Ministers reached final agreement tonight on terms of a "peace contract" proposal to bring Western Germany into the free world defense lineup. American, British and French High Commissioners will be instructed to negotiate with the West German Government a postwar settlement which provides: 1. Virtual complete independence for the West German regime in foreign policy and domestic matters. 2.

Abolition of the present Allied three-power High Commission and substituting ambassadors. 3. Changing the status of occupation troops to defense forces. With the settlement of the German question agreed to, the British, American and French Foreign Ministers turned to other problems. An informed official who disclosed the Big Three agreement on Germany said a formal joint communique will be issued tomorrow.

Secretary of State Acheson, British Foreign Minister Morrison and French Foreign Minister Schuman are to meet again tomorrow morning for the seventh time since their conference began Wednesday. Officials described the "peace contract" as liberal, but said the Allies intend to preserve some powers. These would include the right to step into German affairs if Communism threatens to overthrow the new West German republic either by a domestic coup or outside aggression. Officials who reported on discussions so far after a 90-min-ute night session said the ministers also discussed these issues today: 1. Possible arrangements to speed up a peace treaty for Austria.

When Mrs. Sarah B. Regan of Shattuck road, Norwood, made her complaint, Judge Allan G.

Buttrick of Norfolk Superior Criminal Court, immediately declared a mistrial and ordered the jury dismissed. Mrs. Regan and three other women, the first to serve on a jury here, were considering the case of James Winters, 42, of Boston, charged with assault with a dangerous weapon on his former wife, now Mrs. Ellen Parker of Brookline, last June. The case went to the Superior Court panel-at noon.

Ninety minutes later Mrs. Regan knocked on the door of the jury room to get the attention of the deputy sheriff standing guard outside.

today, but missed $60,000 more in their haste to get away. One cowed three bank employees and two customers with a revolver, while his companion vaulted a five-foot counter and emptied the cash drawer in one of the two tellers' cages. Then they fled, leaving behind in the adjoining cage and $45,000 in the open safe 20 feet away. The pair threatened to kill three persons including a bystander outside before escaping in a stolen blue sedan parked around the corner on St. George av.

Police recovered the car later at the same parking lot in Milton from which it was taken shortly before the robbery. Its owner was not even aware it had been stolen, they said. See ROBBERY Page 10 (AP Wlrephoto) Dewey Says G.O.P. to Pick Ike; Talks With Saltonstall WASHINGTON, Sept. 13 (UP) Gov.

Thomas E. Dewey of New York predicted today that Gen Dwight D. Eisenhower will win the Republican Presidential nomination next year. He made the forecast after a 40-minute foreign policy conference with President Truman and discussions about politics with Republican Senators. Dewey, who described his talk with the- President as "cordial," called for United States "military alliances" with free nations in Asia which ma" be next on the Kremlin's list for subjugation.

Mr. Truman likewise called his conversations with the wo-time G. O. P. Presidential contender very pleasant and very satisfactory.

Afterward Dewey, who came out for Eisenhower for President earlier tHs year, held a frank "Eisenhower" meeting with Republican Senators James See DEWEY Page 21 Communist troops have received full assault rations and equipment for an offensive. Gen Matthew B. Ridgway's headquarters in Tokyo has disclosed that 40 re-fitted and re-equipped Communist divisions have been firmly identified along the battlef ront and at least 30 more divisions in rear areas between the front line and Manchuria. Most were deployed in western Korea where the terrain is less rugged. The Communists are believed to have 250 Soviet-built T-34 tanks in the west and 1200 Manchurian-based planes for support.

Most of the Red troops in eastern Korea, are North Koreans who have been mauled in recent fighting. In the past, major Red offensives have been spearheaded by Chinese troops who have most often attacked under the light of a full moon. Allied officers feel the purpose of a Communist offensive would undoubtedly be to push the United Nations line below the 38th Parallel.

Struik and Harry E. Winer, Maiden rubber company official, indicted on charges of conspiracy to overthrow the governments of Massachusetts and the 'United States, will surrender this afternoon to Dist. Atty.

George E. Thompson of Middlesex County. The two men will present themselves at Thompson's office at 2. It is expected they will be arraigned after a short conference with the District Attorney. Struik was suspended as professor of mathematics at Massachusetts Institute of Technology on Wednesday a few hours after the Grand Jury returned indictments.

Winner and Struik were named in two indictments charging conspiracy. A third indictment charged Struik with advocating the overthrow by violence of the government of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The two men were indicted following a day of testimony by Herbert A. Philbrick, FBI undercover agent for nine years in the Communist ranks. He linked Struik and Winner with the Communists.

LEWIS Boston's 5055 police and firemen will receive pay raises ranging from $240 to $690 on Dec. 1, if the City Council approves an order Mayor Hynes said last night he intends to submit Monday. The order provides for acceptance by the council of a recently enacted legislative statute increasing compensation for members of the Boston Police Department.

If this act is approved by the council, as is expected, Hynes said he will raise the pay of the city's firefighters to the same level. Total cost of the boosts for a full year will be $1,496,180. The' cost for December of this year will be $124,687. The increase represents about $1.05 on the 1952 tax rate.

Av. jvbwy tWtoij U. S. EIGHTH ARMY HEADQUARTERS, Korea, Friday, Sept. 14 (AP) Fierce fighting raged on eastern Korea hill tops Thursday while at least 250,000 tank-supported Red troops were reported massed along the western battle front for a possible "full moon" drive toward Seoul.

There was some speculation among Eighth Army of- ficers that the Red offensive in the west if it develops at all-may come this next week-end when the moon is full. But, other sources still were-inclined to doubt that the Communists plan an immediate attack.

Senator O'Mahoney, of Wyoming, floor manager of the bill, said the cut need not be applied on an across-the-board, basis to all items.
