OF 95 sure hates to let mercury reached a high The Robert E. Lee Ganders will be sacking their second straight non-conference victory tonight when they clash with the Temple Wildcats, a Central Texas powerhouse, at p.m. on the Temple gridiron. Thirty-seven boys, including the three mangers, boarded a bus here at 7 a.m. today and left for Temple.

The bus was scheduled to arrive in the Central Texas city around noon. Radio Suation KREL will broadcast the game, coming on the air at 7:55 p.m. Sports Announcer Byard Sooy will handle the play-byplay. Eayshore Motors is sponsoring the broadcast. The Ganders will put up at the Kyle Hotel in Temple, remaining: there until time to go suit out.

Several hundred Baytown football fans are making the 200-mile plus trip- Most'of them are planning to take in a Southwest Conference game tomorrow either in Austin or Lee will be playing a club that is unbeaten in its lone start of the season. The Wildcats downed Brownwocd, 13-7, last week in their operer. Scouting reports revealed that Temple has a strong passing attack, with a passer who "can thread the noodle" and rangy pass-catching ends. The Wildcats also are reported to be a hard-blcckins club. A nationwide pickup order was issued today by Police Chief H.

E. McKee for one of four prisoners who walked out of the Baytown Jail last night when a policeman forgot to lock the cell door. McKee and City Manager Darwin Middleton also went to see County Commissioner Hugh A. May about rushing an appropriation for a. night jailer.

"It was negligence, of course, that made the break possible. Too many policemen have keys, and policemen are human. They forget sometimes. We want a night jailer so only one man will have a key." McKee said. All but one of the men returned voluntarily and declared they were "glad to get back." They were afraid of being shot by a nervous patrolman and tired of being barked at by dogs under a house where they hid when they saw the police circling the.

Mitchell, 20, jailed on a charge of felony theft after a parking meter was stolen on Market Street early this week, is the missing man; He is believed to be cn- route to his home in California in a bright green Production Service Company automobile which was stolon after midnight last night, McKee said. Police did not know of the jailbreak until one of the escapees, a negro, Joe Abner Smith- 20. came panting- into the jail.

Almost breathless, Smith gasped "They're after me; I know they're after me." Police thought he was drunk or crazy and threatened to lock him up. "I've been lockefj upr I've been in jail all week. They're every-: body's out. They're all gene. They're after me," excited, negro said between gasps for breath.

The officers locked him in a solitarv cell and checked the jail All city prisoners but one, and a countv prisoner were gone. Patrol cars were sent to EeFec and Pruett where the negro said he last saw the three white men, Mitchell, Teeny French. 23, and Herman J. Kern, 26. French is a city prisoner also charged with the parking meter theft.

Kern is charged with forgery and was awaiting transfer to the county jail at Houston. McKee said the prisoners forced the negro to leave the jail with them and planned to burglarize Thad Felton's automobile agency, obtain a ear and "light out" He said Kern and French were "captured" by A. C. Coker of 610 West Defee. Coker said the men knocked on his door and told him they wanted to call the police- The prisoners sat on his front porch and chatted goodnaturedly until a police car came for them- Coker said.

Kern, most talkative of the prisoners, said the men had planned no burglary, and they did not force the negro to was as anxious to get out of (See Three 2) of ubJic ftH be'' By RALPH TEATSORTH Korean troops drove to the 38 parallel and began shelling the border today but the were ordered not to cross the boundary line between Northland South Korea.

The size and speed of our victory in Korea is increasing. It is becoming more difficult each day for the enemy to establish a solid defense line in South Korea, and many units of the Communist army have lost touch with the high command. The fact that there are persistent reports of Communist peace feelers proves that the North Koreans are looking around for an easy way out of their problem. 2.
