Malcolm's Two Horses Retain Trophies (Continued On Page Four) The Great Game Of Politics By FRANK R. KENT Give Him Credit A sudden storm with rain in the final stages last night failed to dampen the success of the three-day Hanover Horse Show as two local entries, Reveries Highland Kitty and Nellie Pidgeon retained last honors as best five tnd three-gaited saddle horses respectively. The fancy stepping mares, owned by James F. Malcolm, last night each won their second leg on the challenge trophies for which they need on)y one more win to gain permanent possession. Another capacity crowd estimated at more than 2,000 persons, watched the local horses win their respective classes against stiff competition.

Reveries Highland Kitty walked out of the ring $500 richer by winning the five-gaited saddle horse stake and challenge trophy donated by Mr. and Mrs. Robert F. Fitzpatrick. A like amount was added to the winnings of Nellie Pidgeon for the three-gaited saddle horse and challenge trophy donated by R.

S. Border. All events last evening from the opening hackney pony class through the hunters and jumpers drew applause from the large crowd. It was during the start of the western stock horse stake that the wind-driven rain pelted the ring and scattered the crowd. It failed to dismay the brilliantly arrayed horsemen and their mounts, however, and the show continued uninterrupted.

It did cause the cancellation the scheduled exhibition of western riding and calf-cutting. Always a crowd-pleaser, the working hunters provided keen competition last evening. Magno, owned by Mr. and Mrs. John C.

The Elks are to be complimented for taking over the show and putting on such a fine exhibition. The proceeds will go into the social and community welfare fund of the Elks lodge. Large audiences attended each of the six sessions and, judging from the applause, the various classes on the program were enjoyed. Th. general committee is so well pleased with the results this year that plans are already underway to again conduct the shov: next year under the sponsorship of the Elks lodge.

It, would be a critic, indeed, who would withhold from Mr. Truman full credit for the bold decision made by him last Monday jn the Korean crisis. And, although nearly all our eminent journalistic global thinkers (who for ten days and more had been busily explaining how impossible it was for us to do anything effective now) were left pretty well out on a limb, it is significant how few tried even to save face.

There were a couple of extreme isolationist senators who cried that the President had the senator attack was on Mr. Acheson and previous policy but he approved the of the action. In the House, the only bleat came from the communistic Marcantonio, who strictly adheres to the Soviet point of view and cares far less for our Constitution than for an oak leaf in a fall breeze. Naturally, no one wanted to line up with this creature of the Kremlin and the chorus of presidential approval was nonpartisan and overwhelming almost to the point of unanimity. At this writing, before Kremlin action and before the military effectiveness of our move can be definitely ascertained, it, of course, is impossible to predict the ultimate outcome.

However, it does seem possible to assert certain specific facts. First, despite discouraging news, there is the conviction here that our swift and firm action will be successful; that it is definitely in our own interests and definitely in the interests of the peace-seeking people of the world, the only possible step to halt an indefensible aggression by a ruthless and implacable foe. Second, there is the belief that should what we have done prove futile either to save Korean democracy for which we are sponsor, or to prevent the dreadful outbreak the third world war, which is our great brief, should the worst occur, it is still better to have acted as we have than to have done anything else suggested by either responsible or irresponsible For the course we have adopted is not only the courageous course but the only logical and safe course. It is true it has involved a reversal of Mr. Far Eastern policy and a repudiation of a great many things Secretary Acheron has said on the subject.

The protruding fact, however, is that there was nothing else to do. To have done less would not only have meant a shocking loss of national self-respect but it would have cost is the confidence of our allies against communism all over the world. It would have left all Asia, as one CHARLES STAHR HAMM DIES AT SUMMIT, N. J.

ground forces reached the war front, dug advanced positions and got a baptism of fire from strafing planes today. But by nightfall they had not seen the North Korean ground enemy. General advanced headquarters in South Korea said the invaders had made no serious progress during the day, marked only by sporadic fighting between Korean forces. A spokesman indicated the break through the Han river line at Yong- dungpo by two tank columns might have been less serious than first anticipated. The Americans were rushed forward from their staging base to head off this column.

American pilots reported that most Communist convoys apparently were lying low during daylight to avoid intense strafing. A renewed surge tonight might bring the invaders in contact with the Americans. The strafing and rocket attack on the Americans lasted 25 minutes. One foot soldier was wounded in this, the first combat in any form experienced by most of them. There were five to seven planes in the attack.

Advance headquarters in South Korea said the North Korean spearhead had failed to make any serious progress in a series of breaks through South Korean lines. The drive on Suwon, abandoned American forward base, appeared to have bogged down or collapsed. A spokesman said some of the tanks appeared to have pulled back. General advanced headquarters said the invaders were using their tanks and troops in sporadic fighting in which no American ground troops have yet taken part.

Fighter pilots hammering the Communist columns with rockets and machine guns reported the convoys apparently were taking to cover in daylight. They said they had found little activity, reported Associated Press Correspondent William Jorden from a South Japan air base. Continuance of the air assaults was assured by good weather over Korea.
