LAWRENCE, KANSAS
Montpelier, Idaho—(U.P.)-The aerial search for a C-46 transport plane, missing since early Wednesday with three crew members and 37 homeward-bound Korean veterans aboard, was concentrated today in the wild area west of Bear lake in the Rockies near the Idaho-Wyoming border.
GET OFF MY BACK — Jayhawk forward Harold Patterson scored in the fourth quarter with this driving, underhanded layup as KU took a 65-53 upset victory over the Oklahoma A&M Cowboys last night. In shipping the Aggies, who were rated fifth in the nation, the Jayhawks stretched their home game winning streak to 15 games. Attempting to guard Patterson are Harold Rogers and Kendall Sheets. Kansas led all the way as Jayhawk post man B. H. Born led scoring with 21 points. He was followed by KU captain Dean Kelley who had 18. Bob Mattick. Aggie center, got 16 points. Rebounding by the Jayhawks was a big factor in the Kansans' hustling victory as they gathered in 54 to the Oklahoma team's 26. Coach F. C. "Phog" Allen's team goes to Ames, Iowa.

Aerial Search for C-46 Continues in Rockies
Meanwhile, two single-engined F-51 fighter planes were missing today in the same general vicinity.
One of the F-51s was last reported over Whitehall, Mont., yesterday on a flight from Hill Air Force base at Ogden to Great Falls, Mont. The plane took off at 2:41 pm, and had only enough fuel to last until 7:45 pm.
The other missing fighter plane, on a flight from Boise to Preston, Idaho, was last reported over Dubois, Idaho, about 3 p.m. The plane piloted by Air Force Sgt. R. S. Simpson was scheduled to arrive at Preston at 5 p.m.
The plane from Hall AFB was flying with three other planes when they were ordered to return to the base because of bad weather. Three of the planes returned, but the unidentified pilot of the fourth craft apparently didn't hear the order.
A Union Pacific railroad freight train crew, meantime, described what brakeman Bud Lund called a "big bonfire and three blue flares" that he and other crewmen saw from a ridge two miles south and six miles east of Cokeville, Wyo.
The business manager of the private firm that owned the C-46, A. J. Parker of San Antonio, Tex., said the missing craft carried "regulation flares."

234 Aboard Saved In Dutch Shipwreck
Durban, South Africa—(L.P.)-Passengers and crewmen of the ill-fated Dutch ship Klipfontein were being taken to the Portuguese East African port of Beira today by the British rescue liner Eloemfontein Castle.
The 10,555-ton Dutch liner struck a rock off the Mozambique coast yesterday and sank quickly. Everyone aboard escaped, but they were unable to save any belongings except the clothes they were wearing.
The 116 passengers and 118 newmen were transferred to lifeboats in one of the smoothest rescue operations on record.
Star Men Enter Not Guilty Plea
50th Year, No. 70
Kansas City, Mo.—(U.P.)Roy A. Roberts, president of the Kansas City Star, and Emil A. Sees, treasurer and advertising director of the newspaper, were arraigned on charges of anti-trust violations today without appearing in federal district court.
Defense lawyers entered pleas of not guilty for the two executives.
Appearance of Mr. Roberts and Mr. Sees was not required as the offenses alleged by the government are misdemeanors.
James C. Wilson, counsel, entered the innocence pleas with the "reservation to withdraw, the pleas within the next 99 days to enter appropriate motions."
Judge Richard M. Duncan said the defendants could remain free without bond because he said he didn't "believe either man would run away as they are well established here."
The judge granted that period, but remarked it was the "longest length of time I've granted any defendant in my ten years on the federal bench."
Mr. Duncan said he would not grant 90 days. The lawyers then asked for 60 days.
There were more than 20 lawyers in the courtroom. Only about 35 spectators were present.
A federal grand jury indicted Mr. Roberts, Mr. Sees, and the newspaper charging monopolization of news and advertising in the Kansas
Carlson Says HST Behind K.C. Star Suit
Washington — (U,P) — Sen. Frank Carlson said today the government's anti-trust charges against the Kansas City Star company are "punitive action" by President Truman against the newspaper for its anti-corruption campaign.
"This is a punitive action on the part of the President and one that I assure you must not go unchallenged by the press and our citizens generally," he said.
City area. The true bills were returned Tuesday.
Senators to Talk Patronage With Ike
Mr. Roberts, in a statement, said the government in its charges sought to destroy "the basic structure upon which the Star's circulation has been maintained for more than a half century."
Washington—(U.P.)-The Senate's Republican "Big Three" plan to meet with President-elect Eisenhower in New York, probably Monday, to thresh out the GOP's family fight over control of federal patronage.
Sen. William F. Knowland (Calif.), Senate GOP leader Robert A. Taft, and Chairman Eugene D. Millikin of the Senate Republican conference have been delegated by their colleagues to seek a "meeting of the minds" with Mr. Eisenhower and his high command in New York.
Describing the charges as of the "shot-gun variety," Mr. Roberts said "the Star will meet the charges head on."
The trouble, according to influential Republicans, is that Mr. Eisenhower has laid down no clear rules on who picks candidates for federal jobs.

which will be held in New York Monday and Tuesday with the 21 senior appointees of his executive family and Vice President-elect Richard M. Nixon.
Elder Statesman Bernard M. Baruch conferred with Mr. Eisenhower yesterday. He said afterwards that he would be available as an adviser to the new administration.
Another caller was Robert P. Burroughs, a former Republican national committee man who was on the Eisenhower advisory staff during the presidential campaign.
In New York, President-elect Eisenhower scheduled a busy round of conferences today.
Mr. Eisenhower spent almost the entire day yesterday putting the finishing touches on his inauguration address and on a state of the union report. A headquarters spokesman said it had not been decided whether he will deliver the latter report to Congress personally.
The conferences will be devoted to a general discussion of domestic and foreign problems confronting the new administration.
Among his scheduled callers were his new secretary of the air force, Harold E. Talbott, and Frederic R. Coudert, a member of the House Appropriations committee.
GOP officials also are asserting claims to a big voice in patronage.
Mr. Baruch said he talked over with Mr. Eisenhower "the military security and economic well-being of the United States." Asked whether he believed the country was headed for inflation or a depression, Mr. Baruch said that could not be answered "until we know what we propose to do in the matter of expenditures for defense and how we are going to spend it."
Truman's Budget Hits $78.6 Billion
Mr. Eisenhower was preparing, also, for round-table conferences
Washington—(U.P.)—President Truman sent Congress today a proposed spending budget of $78.6 billion for fiscal 1954 and said the Republicans ought to continue present high taxes—or even raise them.
Here's How Truman Would Use Tax Dollar

Fine Arts Senior Gets $800 Grant
Rodger Vaughan, fine arts senior, has won an $800 grant to aid his future study in music theory and composition.
Vaughan received the award for a vocal composition by an undergraduate college student offered in the national Young Composers Radio awards.
Vaughan's song, "She Walks in Beauty," won the recognition. He is a pupil of Laurel Everette Anderson, professor of organ and chairman of the music theory department. Vaughan composed the number for Professor Anderson's class last year.
RODGER VAUGHAN
The song won the first place prize of $25 in the Kansas competition last summer. Judges of the regional competition forwarded it and others to the national board of ten distinguished musicians, composers, educators, and publishers in New York.
Vaughan plans to continue with graduate studies as preparation for teaching music theory or work as a professional music arranger.
He holds a residence scholarship in Pearson hall and a Christmas Vespers scholarship in music. A tuba player in the KU band for four years, he is now president of that organization. He also played two years in the KU symphony orchestra.
The winning selection, sung by Dale Moore, fine arts junior, will be included in a program of KU student compositions that will be broadcast next month in New York.
He said the whole total is "essential for the safety and well-being of the nation" in this time of arming against the Soviet threat. Three-fourths of it he assigned to "national security" — the military, atomic weapons, aid to Europe, and related programs.
If the Republican Congress adopted the whole budget—an unlikely "if"—federal spending in fiscal 1954, beginning July 1 this year, would be the biggest except during World War II.
President-elect Eisenhower and such GOP leaders as Sen. Robert A. Taft have set a general goal of cutting it to $70 billion. The Eisenhower version of the budget will be submitted piecemeal later, beginning in April.
Mr. Truman said the government would go in the red by $9.9 billion under his budget if Congress lets a $2 billion corporate and individual tax cut go into effect as scheduled. He said Congress shouldn't let this happen.
He went further to say that "prudence and wisdom" dictated that the budget be balanced and rearmament be financed pay-as-we-go. This would mean still higher taxes under his spending program.
Unless world conditions worsen,
Mr. Truman said, military spending will hit a peak in fiscal 1554. He predicted a drop of $15 billion a year but not "for at least two or three years."
The Republicans and Mr. Truman agree on one thing—this budget ought to be balanced. Republicans hope they can do it by cutting expenses. They generally are aiming at tax reductions in the following year. However, some propose individual tax cuts this year.
President Truman's fiscal 1933 and 1954 budgets stacked up this way:
Estimated Proposed
1953 1954
Expenditures $74.6 $78.6
Receipts $68.7 $68.7
Deficit $ 5.9 $ 9.9
The 1954 budget included these major expenditures: Military $6.3 billion; foreign aid $7,860 billion; atomic energy, mainly weapons, $2.7 billion; veterans $4.6 billion; interest on national debt $6.4 billion; social security $2.6 billion.
