"Our founding fathers had one
great ideal as they brought forth
this nation," he continued. "They
said, 'This Nation under God.'
Behind this Idea there was the
blending of the non-Conformist
movement of English Protestant
ism, the philosophy of natural
rights of man developed by John
Loche and the 'elements of reason
and Justice of the French Revolu
tion. "Regardless of where these
ideals had development, they
were caught up in our Declara

"Age cannot wither, nor cus
tom stale her Infinite variety,"
some ancient bard thus eulogized
a lady of his acquaintance, but
the phrase might well be applied
to the great American institu
tion, the Circus. In all the years
that it has raised and lowered
its "big top" from Maine to Cali
fornia, and from Florida to Ore
gon, age has not withered nor
custom staled its appeal to young
sters of all ages.
Elephants look the same to
day as they did when P. T.
Barnum swung around the coun
try with the famous Jumbo, but
there is a vast difference today
in the way they are presented,
for now, each and every elephant
must be an actor. Not only must
they help build the "tented city"
and stand on display in the menag
erie, but they must also do their
bit on the big show's program.
The elephants with the Clyde
Beatty Circus are considered the
best trained in all spangleland.
The bie show and. it is we,
being one of America's two big
gest shows with over 700 people,
is coming to Roseburg Saturday,
June 4 for afternoon and night
performance at the Circus
Grounds west on Garden Valley
Road, which means that circus
fans will have the opportunity
to see many of the world's great
est circus attractions, headed as
they are by Clyde Beatty, the
most fearless wild animal trainer
the world has ever known, and
his death defying wild animal
display.
The performances, starling at
2:30 and 8 p.m., open with a
gorgeously produced super-spectacle
in which great masses of
people and hordes of animals
take part.
There are now nine women
seated in the United States Con
gressone of them in the Senate,
has cost many lives, and will
continue to cost as the years go
on. Being an American does not
mean that one is simply born in
America, but that he stands for
the great freedoms springing
from the ideals set down In
American history. This revolu
tion of the rights of man stands
as a challenge to all humanity,
and as long as we believe in
these rights they will have to be
defended.
'Un-American activities are
those which hinder the advance
of liberty under law, or that be
tray the equality of human
rights, or that transgress the
freedom of the Individual con
science, or profane the sacred
ness of human personality. Any
Impairment of civil rights," or
discrimination on account of race
or creed is Un-American.

A plank from new construction
within the prison was placed
against the 15-foot south wall and
the men went over. The guard
opened fire, but whether either
man was hit could not be de

served in California's Folsom

Pimon'i Crime Toll
Pinson's life term came after
the April 25, 1947, murder of
State Patrolman Delmand E.
Rondeau, 32, at Hood River. Pin
son had prowled two homes and
stolen six guns. He had these in
a parked pickup truck when Ron
deau moved up and questioned
him.
Pinson pulled a 32-20 pistol
from his pocket and shot Ron
deau in the chest. The patrolman
dragged himself 60 feet toward
the Hood River City Hall, and
died on the sidewalk.
Umatilla County Sheriff's depu
ties ana state police captured him
at Ordnance. He was seen on an
east-bound freight train and the
car was surrounded when it
reached Ordnance. Pinson start
ed to flee, but dropped his gun
when bullets pinged around him.
At his trial his only defense
was the claim that he shot on the
spur of the moment and hadn't
planned to do It.
Fire Damage Hits

A fuel bin fire at the Martin
Box Company, Oakland, Satur
day at 6:30 p. m., brought out the
Sutherlln and Oakland Fire De
partments and two pieces of
equipment frtim the Roseburg

also used to extinguish the blaze.
It was nearly 9 p. m. before the
Roseburg trucks returned home.
Firemen reported it was neces
sary to pump large amounts of
water into sawdust, to make cer
tain no sparks remained.

considers himself a member of

reluctant in sharing family friend

As time wore on, Leo, the lion,
grew bigger, stronger, and more

be, and gave Lucky to understand
that he too, was something to be
reckoned with. While Lucky,

West Germany is expected to
