Sausalitio, Calif. - (U.P.)—Bad Boy Robert Mitchum faced "firing" today from the location set of the movie "Blood Alley" for dunking a 250-pound co-worker in the cold waters of San Francisco Bay.

The Lawrence City commission voted last night to pave Naismith road, the yet-to-be-completed four-lane traffickway which will serve Allen fieldhouse. The measure was approved without opposition.
Verification of the paving came almost two months after the commission voted to name the road in honor of the inventor of basketball. Naismith road, when completed, will run from the fieldhouse south to Highway 40 south of Lawrence and will provide easy access for out-of-town visitors to the 17,000-capacity arena.

Kansas Legislators Ready for Lawmaking
Topeka-(U.P)-The 56th Kansas Legislature was ready today for lawmaking and some bills were expected to be introduced.
Forces of the new governor ran into a stormy start yesterday. Rhubarbis developed in both chambers as House and Senate organized formally for the three-month session.
An adverse vote for the administration came in the Senate. After spirited debate the House postponed for 15 days a decision to pare the power of the governor's control.
Its first action was completed yesterday. The legislators rushed through an appropriation measure to provide their pay. The $306,-961.80 bill was passed unanimously by the House and Senate and prepared for Gov. Fred Hall's signature.
The measure included a new appropriation of $200,000 and re-appropriation of an unexpended balance of $106,961.80 from the 1953 session for salaries of legislators and employees and expenses.
By a 25-11 vote, the Senate decided to eliminate the previous
requirement that any executive appointment recommendations be considered by standing committees before the whole Senate confirms or disapproves them.
It meant only one day's notice before the Senate acted on any or all of a slate of 39 interim appointments of Edward F. Arn, who was governor until noon Monday, or any list by Gov. Hall.
ally instituted. Sen. Paul Wunsch (R-Kingman), Senate president pro-tem, made the motion. Sen. Wunsch and Gov. Hall clashed in the 1951 and 1953 sessions when Gov. Hall, then lieutenant governor, presided in the upper lawmaking chamber.
The House debate was on a motion to revise the rules to take away much of the power of the calendar committee, a group which in the past has held life or death decision on proposed bills.
It is made up of members named by the speaker, a post won by Gov. Hall's forces Monday.
