She is Pamela button, daughter of Mrs. Lee Sutton. The girl was unconscious for more than half of her stay in the hospital.

Pamela still faces long months of convalescense.

This produced an unusual event for any trial: Stults called the iresiding judge, Carl E. Wimber y. to the stand as a witness. The district attorney did it to establish his contention there was not sufficient time to produce the witnesses. The case was to havs come to trial a day later, but was pushed forward on the docket when a prior case was suddenly settled. An earlier case other than the one settled went to the jury at 10:30 a.m., and the Reson case went on trial at 11 a.m. In summing up, Stults told the jury Reson had been drinking on the night in question but that there was no reason for him to pull a knife. In final argument he accused the defense altorney ol using an old trick of trying every body but the defendant. Baldwin had discounted the seriousness of the alleged crime, the testimony of state witnesses, and said Reson did not fully comprehend the situ ation.

Remon was head of the guard at that time. Shortly after Remon, 46, was machine-gunned Sunday at the Juan Franco race track, Arias was arrested at his coffee plantation 300 miles west of the capital. Salmon Harbor Rules Outlined After Hearing (Continued from Page One) prosecute the violator had been rebuffed by a legal flaw in its authority, the three agencies which have a direct hand in the opera tion of the harbor have since sought the necessary revision in the county court order which would provide the board with the authority to legally and effectively lodge charges in future situations of this kind. Those gathered in attendance (about 25) at the morning hearing Tuesday, were almost :n unani mous consent of the need for such enforceable regulation. H. O. Hinsdale, representative of the Port Commission on the management board led the way on the side of stricter regulation for the board. Meanwhile, another Port Com mission member, and representa tive of the Lower Umpqua Rod and Gun Club, Leonard Tolman, was the only one present to actual ly question the value of further recommendations in the regulation of the harbor. Another stand was taken by an unidentified Winchester Bay resi dent who called for "only a little law, but no other improvements." Other representatives at the meeting presided over by Judge Hill of the County Court, to make significant overtures were: John P. Amacher, Winchester, chair man of the Park Board; Roy Hen derson, mayor-elect of Reedsport; Luther Ellison, Roseburg -small-boat operator at the Bay; L. (Cap) Wells, charter boat representa tive; Charles Collins, County Parks Board representative and management board member. The principal issue in the dis pute centering around the alloca tion of space to charter boat oper ators was partly solved on the basis ot a $250 deposit fee to be charged each boat owner at the start of the season as agreed to by Hinsdale and Wells. The two representatives agreed on the figure as a satisfactory price for weeding out the less pro fessional type of boat operator. With a minimum amount of space from which to operate, the move, it was felt, would meet the prob lem of limiting the number of charier boats operating. Tentatively left unanswered, however, was the pressing ques tion of assigning space on a dock which has a limited capacity for 11 charter boats. The problem seemed to be one for the boat operators them selves to iron out. Discussion principally among Wells, Hinsdale and Attorney George Neuner Jr., retained by the management board, centered around proposals for issuing bids and the possibility ot a cooperative effort initiated by the boat oper- It was hoped by those concerned that the $250 deposit fee would at least be instrumental in its appli cation to the docking problem.
