Objection Sustained
District Attorney Robert G.
Davis asked Sgt. Beers how loud
a report the gun made when it
wasf Ired. Geddes objected to
this, because conditions would be
different in the laboratory than
in tne Mojonnler home.
He was sustained by the judge.
"If the court please, we can
conduct the experiment In here,"
Uavls replied.
"I don't think we can do anv

Davis said he had asked the
question because the defendant
has claimed that she was "asleep"
at the time the gun supposedly
was fired, taking Mojonnler's

would have bearing on the case.

The steel Industry has been

Not Binding
The board s recommendation is

can accent or reject according to
terms of the 60-day truce Presi

All residents of the Roseburg
area who like to sing are Invited
to attend the first yearly meet
ing of the Roseburg Choral so
ciety Sept. 12 at 7:30 p.m. in
the Junior high school music
room, Director Charles Rlcketls
said today.
Rlcketts urged attendance by
former members of the group,
in addition to prospective mem
bers, with the hope that the
choral society could begin the
new season at full strength.
The director will waste no time
in preliminaries, he said. The
music has arrived and singers
will begin Immediately to learn
the choral parts for Handel's
famed "Messiah," scheduled for
presentation during the coming
Christmas season..
Rehearsals begin promptly at
7:30 and will continue for an
hour to an hour and a half, Rlck
etts said.
Accompanist for the group is
Mrs. W. S. Plimpton.
Fog Handicaps
Firefighters In
Spotting Blazes
Fog was blamed today by M.
M. Nelson, Umpqua National
forest supervisor, for handicap
ping fire crews attempting to lo
cate the forest's 23 fires, set by
the recent lightning storm.
Nelson said Saturday morning
that every forest service lookout
was fogged in so that crews
were not able to be directed to
lightning strikes reported earlier.
Fire fighters are scattered at
strategic shelter stations through
out the forest, to be near the
fires when the weather clears,
he said.
An average of an Inch of rain
over the forest and clearing
weather predicted by the weather
bureau will act as aids to fire
fighting attempts. Nelson said.
Douglas Forest Protective asso
ciation dispatcher U. F. McLaugh
lin said today all known fires
In the district were believed un
der control today and many of
them were "dead out."
Both Nelson and McLaughlin
said they planned to send planes
over the entire area on spotting
service when the weather
cleared.
An easy way to serve fresh
shrimp for a supper dish Is to
cook, shell, and clean them, then
saute them In butter or margar
ine Just until they are hot. Serve
them immediately with a wedge
of lemon, a baked potato, and
a green salad. Flavor the dress
ing for the salad with garlic for
a zesty touch.

Cancer Checking
Would Require " T
All Doctor's Time
PORTSMOUTH. N. H..-UP)-Jt
would take ill the nation's
doctors, doing nothing else. Jut
to check everyone each year for
cancer.
Such checkups would find al
most all cancers, and find them
early enough when most could
be cured. But our doctors would
n't have time to treat anyone for
cancer or anything else.
This Is the dilemma of cancer
detection as presented to 60 na
tional experts by the American
cancer society.
The experts who attended a
three-day conference here to de
termine the most effective
methods of finding cancer early
and surely.
It is estimated that Z2.oou.uw
Americans now alive will d i
of cancer unless present detect
ion methods are improved or
new treatments for cancer dis
covered. The biggest need now is for
some simple test to spot cancer t
early, even In hidden, hard-to-find
sites. This conference open
ing today will discuss the value
of many proposed or possible me
thods of doing this..
Right now detection centers
can't be anything more than part
of the answer of finding cancer
early, society officials said. A
thorough examination of one per- X
son takes about an hour's time. -j
Cancer authorities say that to
play safe every person should
have a checkup once a vear. Men
and women over 45 should have
But twice-a year checkups for
evervone would take the full
working day of 195,000 doctors.
The nation has t bout 160.000 pra
cticing physicians.
There are about 240 cancer de
tection centers now, the society
reported. Most are booked up
weeks or months in advance.
Of all the people who come,
about one pjercent are found to
have canaers. Ten ter cent have
conditions that might turn into
cancer. Fifty-even per cent are
found to have other diseases or
troubles and are referred to their
twn physicians for treatment of
these disorders.
