Jteki.ii St. ORchtra 1-6671 Former Football Player Sets Record At Big Round-Up PENDLETON Wl John Hat ley of Uvalde, Tex., a former pro fessional football player little known in rodeo circles, was the first of the some 200 competing cowboys to establish a Kound-Up record in this year's show. He bulldogged his steer in 5.9 seconds Thursday. That is four tenths of a second under the pre vious mark set some time ago by Wayne Dunafon, Westmorland, Kan. Dunafon has not approached his previous mark in competition this year. But Hatlcy still has a long way to go to assure himself the cham pionship in this event. Winners are judged on the average of the times in three go-rounds. This is the case for all six major events bulldogging, bronc riding, calf roping, bareback riding, Brahma bull riding and steer roping. Rodeo's top money winner, Bill Linderman of Walla Walla, had hard luck in one of Thursday's events. He missed his steer and was thrown to the ground but ap parently suffered only slight in juries. Another cowboy thrown Thurs day was Canadian champion Law rence Mutchinson of Calgary. The Brahma bull that threw him al most gored him. The Hound-Up continued Friday with another presentation of the Indian pageant and another of arena competition. The finals and the presentation of trophies will be televised Sat urday by the Columbia Broadcast ing System.

Negro Father Finds Dynamite On Front Lawn EASTON, Md. 11 A Negro father of two children attending a formerly all-white elementary school found a homemade bomb of 10 sticks of dynamite on his front lawn Friday morning. Sessions Boyd spotted a plastic picnic bag in front of his house. When he pulled the zipper, he saw the dynamite and called police. A Maryland State Police ser geant dunked It in a bucket of water. Thomas Mcssick, a dealer in dynamite, said the explosives had the potential force of a one-ton bomb and would have destroyed or severely damaged three or four of the frame row houses on Graham St. Mcssick said the dynamite prob ably failed to go off because of a faulty fuse. The inside of the bag was scorched, indicating the fuse had been set off. Protests to integration of ele mentary schools in Talbot County have been made by a White Cit izens Assn. However, no demon strations have been staged since school opened Sept. 5 when three pickets were arrested. The Boyd's two children are at tending the Hanson St. Elemen tary School whore the demonstra tions were staged. Holmes Asks Planners For Industry Report SAI.EM IvP Gov. Holmes Thursday ordered his Planning and Development Department to prepare a summary of Oregon's forest industry problems for pre sentation to a U.S. Senate hearing this fall. He said the current hearings being held over the state by him have brought out the need for more access roads in forests, as well as the need for accelerated forest inventories and mainten ance of a competitive price struc ture. "I am requesting the Depart ment of Planning and Develop ment and its advisory board to actively and immediately co-operate with lumber'intercsts, Forest Service officials at both the slate and federal levels, labor groups and all others interested in this vital segment of our economy," the governor said.

Unemployment Benefit Claims Reach High Peak For August; Industry Affected By Strike Claims for unemployment bene fits, many of them in a question able status because of the current labor dispute, reached a high peak during August for the summer months in the Roseburg area, re ports the local office of the Ore gon Stale Employment Service. The unemployment level, already higher than usual, the employment service's report continues, was fur ther affected during August by the labor disputes in the lumber and plywood industries. Some 1,500 workeri have been idled by the strikes. Adversely Affected In keeping with conditions, the retail trade and other industries have also been adversely affected, the report says. Local merchants reported a slow-up in business dur ing August and many attributed this to a loss of purchasing power on the part of the consumers. The report goes on to say that additional adversity includes the closure of four retail firms dur ing the month. It also estimates that some 12 to 18 gypo logging operations have been forced to cease operations as an Indirect re sult of the dispute. In addition, two smaller lumber firms closed their operations and at least four others have shut down Benson States Ike Wants Him To Keep Post WASHINGTON lf) Secretary of Agriculture Benson said Fri day it is the decision of President Eisenhower that he continue in definitely in the cabinet. Benson said the matter was dis cussed at his conference with the president at Newport, R. I., Wed nesday. "Some time ago the President asked me to stay on," Benson said. "I took the matter up with my church, from which I am on leave. It consented and I agreed to stay on." Benson said the matter was dis cussed again Wednesday, and that there was no change in the situa tion. ' Benson is an apostle of the Mormon Church. Answer To Question Benson's remarks at a news conference were in response to a request for comment on a demand by newly-elected Democratic Sen. Proxmire of Wisconsin for Ben son's removal from the cabinet. Proxmire made his demand in a telegram to Eisenhower. He at tributed his upset victory in the recent special Wisconsin election largely to dissatisfaction of farm ers with Benson and administra tion farm policies. Benson devoted much of his news conference to a discussion of plans for seeking modifications in peescnt farm programs in the next session of Congress. He said the administration will seek "liberalization'' of crop con trols, greater flexibility in setting price supports and expansion of the Agricultural Trade Develop ment Act which authorizes sale of farm surpluses abroad for foreign currencies. Benson said he was confident Congress will adopt the recom mendations. Telephone Strike May Be Averted - NEW YORK lifl Contract ne gotiations to avert a nationwide walkout of telephone equipment installers Delayed Thursday while union officials conferred among themselves Were re sumed Fridav morning. The Communications Workers of America threatens to strike at 6 a.m. Monday against the West ern Electric Co., manufacturing arm of the Bell Telephone System. Talks scheduled for Thursday were postponed several times after the arrival here of CWA president Joseph Beirnc, who en gaged in a number of conferences wilh union negotiating officials. Beth Beirne and management have expressed hope that the contract wage dispute can he scattlcd before the Monday strike deadline. A walkout would affect 45 states and the District of Columbia. Maine, Vermont and New Hamp shire are not involved. The union says a strike of its 23,800 equipment installers, with resulting picket lines, would keep about HS.000 other telephone workers off the job. A strike would not Immediately affect dial phone service. Northwest Ski Assn.

QUAIL SEASON POSTPONED SALEM The mountain quail hunting season, scheduled to open Saturday west of the Cas cades, was postponed until Sept. 21 by Gov. Holmes Friday be cause of forest fire danger. Earlier, the governor had post poned the grouse season in West ern Oregon and the special elk season at Loon Lake in western Douglas County. These seasons also were scheduled lo open Sat urday, and were delayed until Sept, 21. temporarily because of market con ditions. Regarding the outlook for jobs, the employment service report states that near future prospects for job openings aje virtually non existent. It concludes that any im mediate improvement in the eco nomic situation will largely depend upon the settlement of the existing labor dispute and any improve ment in the lumber and plywood market. Harvest Under Way The prune harvest is under way in the area, but apparently plenty of help is available. One bright feature in the report is the construction phase of the Roseburg area's economic condi tion. A total of 33 construction per mits were issued in Roseburg dur ing August at i total valuation of $56,040. This includes three new dwellings at a cost of $22,500 and one new commercial building at $5,000. Also noting a feature of Rose burg's July construction figure, it is pointed out that for the month of July, Roseburg was second in the state in construction, exceeded only by the city of Portland. The estimated total of unemploy ment in the area, as told by the lo cal state employment service, was 2,150 by the end of August. There were 789 new and additional claims in August as compared to 471 in July 1957 and 225 in August 1956. Total Up Weeks claimed last month total ed 1,912 as compared to 1,648 in July 1957 and 1,000 in August 1956. Registered applicants for work in the active file of the office to taled 1,118 in August of whom 367 were women. This number does not reflect a true picture, the re port states, because many involved in the mass layoff were not regis tered. Job placements during August were 177, compared to 179 in July, 1957 and 321 in August, 1956. School Blasting Data Obtained, Says Department WASHINGTON, Ifl -The Justice Department said Friday it has in formation of "possible signifi cance" concerning the dynamiting of the Hattie Cotton School in Nashville, Tenn., and is turning it over to local authorities.

Alabama Endorses Idea Of Resettling Negroes MONTGOMERY, Ala. ifl - The Alabama Senate adopted a reso lution Friday endorsing the idea of a resettlement commission in southern states to move Negroes to the north. It was sponsored bv Sen. Sam Engelhardt of Macon County, who is executive secretary of the pro segregation Alabama Assn. of Cit izens Councils. If approved later by the House, the resolution would create a four member legislative committee to explore the idea with officials in other southern states. Engelhardt said a resettlement commission, if established, would buy property in northern cities and resell it to Negroes who want ed to move north.

Umpqua Plywood Purchases Huge Timber Tract Umpqua Plywood Corp. of Rose burg paid almost half a million dollars Thursday for one of the biggest single tracts of Umpqua Na tional Forest timber sold in t h e 1950s. The tract 35 miles northeast of Tiller in the South Umpqua Range District, contains 32,400,000 board feet of green timber on 482 acres. Umpqua Plywood paid $498,830 for the timber appraised at $440, 520. Also bidding were Ross Lum ber Co. Inc. of Medford and Sto mar Lumber Co. of Riddle. The 23,800,000 board feet of Doug las fir was appraised at $13.80 per thousand and sold for $16.25. The following appraised prices were paid on other species: Pine (4,200, 000 feet), $14.80; white fir and other species (4,400,000 board feet) $3.85. Roseburg sales officer Emil John son said this was the biggest sin gle tract sale made by the Rose burg office of the Umpqua National Forest since the fall of 1954 when he took up employment here. It was indicated that .the last sale as big was in 1951. The size of the sale was set to make the tremendous amount of road building necessary feasible. It will be necessary for the con tractor to build more than 10 miles of road. The next Umpqua National For est sale is scheduled Monday, Sept. 16. The following day a Christmas tree sale has been slated at the Big Camas Ranger Station. Small noble fir and shasta red fir suit able for Christmas trees will be sold by the lineal foot. Sen. Neuberger Undecided About Running Again PORTLAND Sen. Neuber ger (D-Ore) said Thursday he has not made up his mind definitely about trying for a second term in 1960. He -told a press conference that while it was an honor to serve in the Senate, "I have found great satisfaction in being a writer. I do not like to be away from home so much. Also, I think it is diffi cult to serve effectively and al ways be thinking of re-election." Neuberger was a successful author before going to the Senate. Discussing school integration troubles in the South, Neuberger said he favors the use of force, if necessary, to assert federal con stitutional prerogatives over the states. But he said he would not want to say that he favored the use of federal troops at Little Rock, Ark., where Gov. Faubus has called out the National Guard to block racial school integration. Neuberger said he was working on a bill which would empower the President to withhold a state's National Guard funds if the guard were used to nullify a federal court order. But, Neuberger added, "The United States may have to face up to the necessity for a federal police force, such as Canada has." Defense Charges Hollywood Fund Wrongly Used LOS ANGELES 11 - The de fense in the Confidential magazine criminal libel trial, claiming that the movie industry raised a $350, 000 "war chest" to attack t h e magazine, says the money should be used instead to clean house in Hollywood. Atty. Arthur'J. Crowley, making his final argument to the jury, said the Hollywood studio should spend the money in a campaign to "clean out your homosexuals and nymphomaniacs. He said that "for 30 years Holly wood has winked at homosexual ity." And the defense attorney ac cused the prosecution of "sacri ficing freedom of the press on the altar of expediency to cover up people who walk around this town like they wear the purple of an cient Rome." Crowley leveled the heaviest at tack of his argument against pro ducer Paul Gregory, a prosecution witness who testified that M r s. Marjorie Meade, a defendant, tried to blackmail him to keep a story out of Confidential. Crowley called Gregory "a liar" who was out to get reveige be cause Confidential published a story titled "The Lowdown on Paul Gregory."

Woman Captured After Firing At Deputy Sheriffs EUGENE tf Police Friday captured a woman accused of firing at two sheriff's deputies, inflicting a minor wound on one of them. Mrs. Lee Mae Webb, about 40, was captured as she returned to her home after spending a night in me Drusn near ner place in the Crcswell area. She was unarmed at capture, and told police she had left her rifle in the brush. The woman is to be examined here, and if her physical condi tion is all right, a mental hear ing will be held. The shots were fired at the dep uties Thursday after Deputy James Douglas went to the wom an's home to serve a warrant for a mental hearing. A bullet struck his car, and a metal fragment wounded him in the leg. When additional police arrived at the scene, they found the house empty. Deputy Earl Fram, look ing in brush nearby, was fired it twice. He was not struck. Police set up roadblocks and waited for the woman to re appear.
