The whole town's buzzing about Roseburg's newest and most
exciting annual event the races. You hear arguments between
Susan and Del on KRNR's "Party Line" about quarter-horses . .
there la the novice aboard city bus inquiring gently of a fellow
passenger: "Well, what's this Win-Place-Show stuff about?" and
there are muffled discussions In confidential and provocative tones
over a cup of coffee in the Umpqua Hotel ... At any rate, horse
racing is upon us for the first time In many years . . . and antici
pation is at an all-time high. And by the way, KRNR's versatile
Lyle Fenner has been assigned the announcing job at the track . . .
fhe poor man's Doodles Weaver . . calling out: "And here they
come around the track . . . It's Cabbage, by a head . . ."
"I'm Gonna Wash that Man Right Out of My Hair,"
"You'rs Breaking My Heart," "Who's Sorry Now," "24
Hours of Sunshlnt," and "The World Is Waiting for the
Sunrise," tltlo tonight's musical selections on the "Sammy
Kayo Showroom" at 7:1S. When a group of unscrupulous
msn try to swindle honest settlers out of land on which
they had spent years of hard work, "The Cisco Kid" takes
a hand on the side ef justiee, during the adventure of "The
Cisco Kid and the Disappearing Cabin," tonight at 7:30.
FLASH: A racing event will be broadcast over KRNR tonight
at 10 direct from the track by remote facilities. If, for some rea
son, you can't be there in person, you'll catch all the color and ex
citement of an honest-to-goodness race by dialing 1490 tonight at
10, for 15 minutes. Of necessity, this'll shove "Greg Hood" down
to 10:30 tonight . . at which time a confession which he didn't
want to hear becomes the subject of the latest incident from his
"Casebook." Elliott Lewis, who is starred as Gregory Hood, and
his wife, Cathy, have appeared often together as an acting team
in radio. But they'll be seen together in a film feature for the first
time when the new "The Story of Melly X" is released.

Gen. Waitt Admits Flattering Self
In 3rd Person Report On Army Job
WASHINGTON. Aug. 17 UP--Maj.
Gen. Alden H. Waitt said
Tuesday that MaJ. Gen. Harry
H. Vaughan asked him to prepare
a memorandum on eight officers
eligible for Waitt's Job as Chief
of the Army Chemical Corps.
Waitt told the Senate Investlga
tions committee that he thought
Vaughan. who is Presiden Tru
man's army aide, asked him to
do so at some social gathering
"perhaps a cocktail party."
He said he could not recall the
date, but said he thought Vaugh
an asked him to "give my esti
mate my personal opinion" of
officers most likely to be consid
ered for the post.
Further, Waitt acknowledged
to the committee, looking into
activities of so-called five per
centers, that he dictated the
memorandum to the secretary of
James V. Hunt, Washington man
agement counselor. Hunt has
been a prime figure in the in
quiry. Senator Mundt (RSD) said
when the memorandum was piaff
ed in evidence last week that
Waitt had "cut the throats" of
his brother officers who might
succeed him as the army's chem
ical chief.
Sounded Own Praises
Waitt also acknowledged writ
ing another memorandum which
gave a highly flattering repoil
on himself. It was written in the
third person and he testified it
was prepared for Vaughan to
hand to President Truman as
Vaughan'S evaluation of Waitt.
Senator McCarthy (R-Wis) not
ed that Waitt, in the reoort, de
scribed himself as one of the
world's leading experts on toxl
cologlcal warfare,
Waitt laughed nervously and
then said:
"That Is most embarrassing.
But it happens to be true."
Waitt, squirming in his chair
and still laughing, said:
"Pravda (Soviet newspaper)
has called me the savage Gener
al Waitt. Moscow radio has call
ed me a cannibal."
The committee got testimony
last week there was no evidence
the report Waitt prepared on him
self ever got to the White House.
It was found in Hunt's files.
Waitt and Maj. Gen. Herman
Feldman. quartermaster general
were suspended July 16 by Se;
letary of the Army Grav pending
further investigation. Gray acted
after the names of the two offi
cers were brought out in the Sen
ate inquiry.
Waitt today called Hunt "a
close personal friend." Before
Waitt testified, Lt. Col. Roy T.
Evans testified that Hunt claim
ed to have been responsible for

Waitt's appointment as chemical
chief.
Evans said Hunt, former offi
cer in the quartermaster corps,
made the claim at a social gath
ering within the last vear anl
half. He said Hunt tried to "im
press people" that he knew many
prominent persons.
Evans said Hunt also said at
'.he party that he was responsible
for the appointment of Tighe
Woods as housing expediter, and
Jess Larson as War Assets ad
ministrator. Hunt formerly was
special consultant for the WAA.
Woods already has appeared
before the committee looking into
the activities of "five percent
ers" persons who collect fees,
usually five percent, for their
help In seeking out government
contracts.
