They were identified by Chest

Jr., Eugene, both 18. Conner had
been stationed at Kelly air field,
San Antonio, Tex., and Defoe at
Hill Field, Ogden, Utah, the po

They complied with Johnson's or

Bank's Mistake Gives

PASADENA, Calif. (JPt A
well-dressed woman has an extra
$50 for her Christmas shopping to
day, but police don't know whether
it was a mistake or the work of
a professional short-change artist.
The woman walked into the Pas
adena First Trust and Savings
bunk, laid four $10 hills in front of
a cashier and asked for a (50
bill.
The cashier pushed out the fifty,
but asked for another $10. The
woman produced it, then said she
might as well get a $100 bill while
she was there. The cashier raked
in the woman's five $10 bills and
his own fifty, counted it and
handed over the $100 bill.
reported stolen from other summer
homes in the area.
Thefts by prowlers had been re
ported since Dec. 9, Chestnut said.
A boat, reported stolen earlier,
was found near the Johnson home.
It apparently had been used to
transport supplies from other cab
ins, the policeman reported.
The Metolius area usually i s
snowed in at this time of year,
but the exceptionally mild weather
permitting travel, led to the dis
covery of the pair, Chestnut said.

For the fourth consecutive year,
the Mutual-Doit Lee network, in
cooperation with Father Patrick
Peyton, C.S.C., and the Family Ro
sary Crusade, will present "The
Joyful Hour" program of narration
and music in the Christmas theme.
This year the show will be aired
on Christmas Eve, Sunday, Decem
ber 24, (7:00-8:00 p.m.). A score
of stars will be heard on the hour
length program, including Jeanne
Grain, Ann Blyth, Rita Johnson,
Seed Ripening
By Chemicals
Seen Probable
PORTLAND (PI Chemicals
may soon replace the sun to ripen
farmers' seed crops.
Revolutionary methods of def
oliating crops to speed and thus
regulate ripening were outlined by
.1. R. Mc Cambridge, Chiprpan
Chemical company scientist, who
spoke to 600 farmers at the Oregon
Seed Growers league meeting here.
Mc Cambridge said the chemi
cals are called defoliants for
lack of a betler name and would
help eliminate losses caused by
weather interference with harvest
operations.
He said the spraying of liquids
containing dinilro general and ten
lachlnrapnenol have been used by
cotlon growers. There they cause
leaf fall. In seed crops, such as
were used in Oregon tests in 1949,
Ihe chemical action forces drying.
This speeds maturity the plant
and the seed. Costs of Ihe chemi
cals and aerial application run
$fi.50 to $fi.75 an acre.
The speaker said results so far
indicate germination of Ihe seeds
so harvested is not affected, nor
is the feeding value of the straw.
It doesn't appear to Ihin seed
crop stands, either, he added.
Mc Cambridge said farmers
should "go easy" on use because
defoliants are tricky and may
eaiily cause crop damage. Bui,
he said, their use has tremendous
possibililies in agricullure.
Legislative and federal program
commillee proposals, approved by
the league, included:
Employment of a researcher in
seeds at the Eastern Oregon ex
periment station at Union; Im
provement of market reporting on
small seeds; opposition to an alia
fescue seed price support program
in 1951 j appointment of a commil
lee to seek more uniform seed
laws with olher slates.
A panel discussed the market
outlook. Members agreed that tile
market outlook is good for high
purity alta fescue seed, and rtc-
