Frl., June 20. 1952 Scientist Asks City To Refund $2 Parking Bail A man claiming to be an atomic research scientist started a cam paign today to get the Roseburg Police Department and Municipal Court to refund $2 bail he posted on a parking citation. Two full page, single space type written letters were on file with police today from a Capt. William I,. Finley, USAFR, research scien tist, U.S. Naval Radiological De fense Laboratories, San Francisco, stating in detail why he believes he was wrongly cited. It alt started Tuesday night when the "scientist" parked his car across from the Grand Hotel head ing the wrong way on the street. He came out of the postoffice and found he had been given a ticket. Captian Finley went directly to the police department, posted his $2 bail and then wrote a detailed letter telling why he should be giv en the bail back. Another letter from San Fran cisco, giving more detail, was re ceived by Judge Ira B. Riddle to day in which the captain offered to furnish documentary proof that he has a spine injury and it was necessary for him to park that way to mail a letter. He ended his last letter expres sing "indignation" at his treat ment and again urged "earliest refund of my t'i bail." Notations on his letter indicate copies have been sent to the De partment of Defense and U.S. Ra diolpgical Defense Laboratories to show how Roseburg treats scien tists. Officials here said the case was closed as far as the City of Rose burg was concerned but they were looking forward with interest for the captain's next letter. Winston Pair Visit California By MRS.

Tree Planting Winter Of 1951 Posts Record The Forest Service replanted a record 2.018 acres of cuiover tim ber land during the past winter, according to figures just complet ed. The planting, part of the Forest Service program for keeping pace was done in the South Umpqua, with harvesting in national forests, Diamond Lake, North Umpqua and Bohemia Districts. I .on is M. Gabel, timber manage ment staff officer, said the tinv trees would be ripe for harvesting :n about 100 years. The winter plainting season, vhich started last November and nded this month, forms a record nr planting in the Umpqua Na iion.il Forest, Gabel said. Pre viously, replanting seldom cover ed more than 900 acres in any one 1 season. A total of 1,115,920 young trees were planted and in addition some 25 acres of cutover land was seed ed as an experiment to determine i the feasibility of seeing rather i than planting nursery stock. ! "Wo hone to maintain a Dlant I Ing program that will go hand-in- hand wilh the harvesting pro gram," Gabel said. ,"At present we're just slightly behind on our planting." lie added that In some areas. 1 natural reproduction of trees is ! satisfactory, while in others, if the 1 manpower, trees and finances had i been available, more trees could have been planted Mxiy tnree per cent of the trees planted last winter were fir trees the remainder were pondernsa pine. Most of the pine was planted in me houin umpqua and Diamond Lake Districts.

Today, June 20, Is the birth an niversary of Aaron Rose, founder of Roseburg, and one of the most influential persons in early day Douglas County development. The date was Just 139 years ago, in 1813. Thers Is no fanfare. This Isn't a holiday. But recognition Is fitting in light of this Douglas County centennial year observance. Portrait and Geographical Rec ord of Western Oregon, printed bv Chapman Publishing Co. in 1904, relates: "The beautiful city of Roseburg, Douglas County, stands as a living monument to the name of Rose, that of the man who was the first settler of this locality, and as such endured the hardships and dangers of his pioneer life. "The name of Aaron Rose has been long known throughout this county and not alone that he was the founder of one . of Oregon's most beautiful cities, but rather for the high moral principal, the earnest integrity, that distinguish ed character of one of her early citizens," the account continues. Born in Ulster County, N.Y., ne emigrated at the age of 24 to Michigan, where he farmed until 1850. With his family he crossed the plains to Oregon In 1851, taking up a 640 acre donation land claim Sept. 23, 1851, upon the present site of Roseburg. He opened the first hotel here, later conducted a butcher shop, bought and sold horses, conducted a store and farmed. In 1854 the county seat of Douglas County was moved, by a vote of the people, from Winchester to his farm where the town of Roseburg was survey ed. In 1853-58, Rose was a member of the territorial legislature. He also assisted in building the wagon road from Roseburg to Coos Bay.

Stat Prison Fight Fatal To Convict, 17 (Continued from Page One) Police Criminal Laboratory at Portland said after an autopsy that one of them pierced the wall of the youth's stomach, severing an artery and causing death from internal bleeding. Attacked From Behind Harwood, serving life for second degree murder in Multnomah County In 1932, made this state ment to Mogan and Warden Virgil O'Malley: He and young Worley got into an argument in the prison yard, and he went to his cell to avoid prolonging it. He had his back to his cell door, when Worley struck him from behind and knocked him to his cot. Harwood said that after Worley hit him again, this time in the face, he pulled out a knife he bad hidden under his cot and slashed at the youth. Other convicts saw Worley run from the cell on the fourth tier and awing down to the third tier, where he collapsed. They carried Worley to the prison hospital, but he was dead on arrival there. Harwood 3-Time Los'r The warden said Harwood and Worley had been involved in a scuffle in the prison yard about a month before. i Harwood's prison record began in 1920. Before beginning his pres ent sentence, he served two other terms at the Oregon prison for forgery and false pretenses, and one at the Washington State Peni tentiary. He escaped while serving one of the earlier Oregon sentenc es, but was re-captured. Worley and five other young Klamath Falls men were admitted to the penitentiary Dec. 31, 1951, for assault and robbery.
