Blind Woman Made To See
Flash Of Light By Using
Special Electronic Device
NEWARK, N. J. W "Oh I can
ice the light."
It was in thcue words that a
woman blind for 18 years deitrib
erl her reaction to a new electronic
device, her surgeons said.
The woman, Betty Corr.torphine,
.1.1, underwent a series of tests in
Cedars of Lebanon Hospital, Lot
Angeles, last month using i photo
electric cell connected to wires in
her brain.
"I saw flashes, at one time a
bright flash like an electric light
bulb, and at another time gray
nexs as though a light had Just
gone out." she said.
Dr. John C. Button said the lest
showed that brain cells did not
atrophy like unused muscle cells
nut could ue stimulated.
Possibilities Seen
Saying that the test "opens the
door to the possibilities 01 eiec
tronic vision, he predicted that
with adcuuate funds medical set
ence coulrl refine the apparatus
so that within five years almost
all blind people could "see" by
meant of electrical stimulus of the
vision centers.
"Eventually," he said, "I'm sure
we U get real sight.
Miss Corstorphine expressed a
cautious optimism about the ex
neriment. "I went out there knowing, of
course, that I was not going to
get my sight back," she said. "I
knew ft was only a test, that much
more research will have to go into
it. But someday we're hoping

Describes Device
Button, a 46-year-old neurologist
who lives in nearby Maplewood,
described the device that may
eventually be developed as "some
thing like a radarscope or tele
vision set."
Miss Corstorphine, who volun
teered for the tests begun last
Oct. 28, has been blind since 1939
because of the pressure of an in
operable, benign tumor on her op
tic nerve.
"It is my understanding that
there arc different kinds of blind
ness," she said. "1 seem to have
alternating days one day in
which everything seems bright
and another day In which it seems
dark."
But, she added, "what I saw in
Los Angeles was different I saw
flushes."

Harrlman Orders
Probe Into Raid
On Mobster Meet
ALBANY. N. Y. lifi - New York
state police who broke up and in
vestigated a "gangland confer
ence" a week ago were under in
vestigation themselves today.
Gov. Averell Harriman disclosed
last night that he had ordered a
number of Inquiries by state
agencies into tne moDster meeting.
One of them directs the state po
lice superintendent to submit a
"complete report on the conduct
of the raid."
A spokesman said the governor
wanted the report since criticism
had been raised about the police
action.
Troopers flushed out 60 men
last Thursday from Joseph Bar
bara's remote country mansion in
the hamlet of Apalarhin in south
central New York. Many under
world luminaries were netted.
The troopers made no arrests.
They said there was no charge
on which to hold any of the guests.
The visitors insisted they were
visiting a sick friend Barbara.
Although no arrests were made,
it was the first time any police
had interfered with and broken up
a meeting of such magnitude.
There has been criticism of the
state police in some quarters over
the prompt release of the par
ticipants in the meeting. There
also have been reports that top
slate police officials were angry
over the fact that they were not
consulted during the roundup and
questioning.

Nadine Conner
Pleases Audience
Wednesday Night
By LEROY INMAN
A wonderful personality with a
beautiful voice that character
izes Metropolitan Opera star Na
dine Conner who sang in Roseburg
Wednesday night under Commun
ity Concert Assn. sponsorship.
The gracious Miss Conner Im
pressed her local audience with a
well-rounded program that demon
strated why she has held top bill
ing as a foremost opera and con
cert singer.
There was some comment that a
few lighter, less-serious selections
on her program might have added
a bit more warmth to the audi
ence response. But no one could
deny the quality of voice of the
California-born singer.
Miss Conner's program was al
most entirely of a classical nature,
with a group of encore selections
from the light opera and a Scotch
Irish medley of her own arrange
ment. She opened with Beethoven's
"Worship of-God in Natuie," and
followed with two Handel selec
tions, and Air de Lia from "L'En
fant Prodigue," by Debussy. Al
ban Berg's "Due Nachtigall" and
"Im Zimmcr," Richard Strauss'
"Wintcrweihe" and "Standchen"
and Donizetti's Norina's Aria from
"Don Pasquale" provided the first
half program selections.
The second portibn of the pro
gram included Gavotte from "Ma
non" by Massenet; "Bailero" and
"Malheureux qui a line femme" by
Canteloube, a group of ballad and
folk songs and the concluding se
lection. Song to the Moon from
"Rusalka" by Dvorak.
Miss Conner's accompanist, Hen
ry Jackson, playing three regular
selections and two additional en
cores was loudly applauded. He
literally made the piano talk and
held the complete attention of his
audience.
Rehabilitation Starts
On Cloverdale Housing
(Continued from Page 1)
cd the laying of 2,639 feet of 8
inch pipe, 1,346 of 10-inch, 1,500 of
30-inch and 797 feet of 36-inch pipe.
In the design are 23 manholes
and 41 catch basins.
The surface water will be dis
charged into two natural water
ways at the lower end of the area
one near Morris Street and Ala
meda Avenue and the other near
Morris and Brooklyn Avenue.
Cornell, I lowland, Hayes and
Merryficld, consulting engineers of
Corvallis, designed both tne street
and sewer improvements.
Don Robertson, supervisor of the
firoject, said that one mam sewer
inc must be laid before the onset
of heavy rains. After it is com
pleted, other sewer work, can con
tinue through the winter since the
lines will be laid in hillside shale
in the area.
To Be Transported
Water from an Intermittently
flowing creek at the high end of
the neighborhood will be. trans
ported into the sewer system by a
36-inch inlet. Part of an existing
18-inch inlet also will he used.
The creek was responsible for
damage to the small business dis
trict at Stephens Street and Gar
den Valley Boulevard during the
high water of December of 1955.
The existing inlet wasn't adequate
to handle the water in the creek.
Robertson said building of t h e
storin sewer may be made diffi
cult because no one seems to know
the location of the sanitary sewers
in the district.
He said he expects to see some
minor and temporary damage to
some sewer lines during the period
of excavation. Wednesday, he was
attempting to locate the lines. No
one seems to know if maps of the
system still exist.
Street excavation is to be start
ed soon by McAllister for Rose
burg Paving Co. Alameda and
Todd Street will be built to 31-font
widths, while the rest of the streets
will be 26 fret wide. They include
Brooklyn. Morris, and Hollis, Ja
eobson, Taylor and Winter streets.
To Pave Driveways
Paving will include all drive
ways in the area.
The redesigned streets will be
rut down tn the level of the lots
wherever possible. The lots event
ually are In he graded to allow
drainage of surface water into the
street gutters, where the catch
basins are located.
That work probably will he start
ed next spring, Robertson said.
McAllister has entered low bid of
$18,000 for the work.
Rids are to be opened next Mon
day in the installation of heating
plants in 117 of the homes, ac
cording to Serafin. A bid call was
made on that project in August,
but the bid openings were cancel
led because specifications had been
misunderstood by some of the bid
ding companies, of which there
were more than 20.
A supplemental contract prob
ably will he iet for healing in the
other 13 homes afler the redemp
tion period has evpired
Serafin said FHA still is con
sidering plans for structural im
provements and additions lo the
homes.

Teamster Records
To Be Subpoenaed
WASHINGTON Senate rack
ets investigators said today they
will subpoena convention election,
records of Teamsters locals in the
union's Central Conference.
Robert F. Kennedy, chief coun
sel of the special Senate commit'
tee, said only a few locals in the
conference headed by James R,
Hoffa have compiled voluntarily
with a committee request for the
information.
Compliance has been better else
where, Kennedy said, with "a lit
tle over 50 per cent" of the rec
ords received and others prom
ised.
Kennedy said that over 75 per
cent of the delegates on whom in
formation has been received so far
were elected in violation of the
union's constitution.
The records, which Chairman
McClellan (D-Ark) asked by let
ter last month, deal with local un
ion's selection of delegates to the
convention which elected Hoffa
president of the Teamsters.
Italian Freighter
Sinks After Blast
NAPLES, Italy I The 2.285
ton Italian freighter Anna Maria
Ievoli sank alongside a Naples
dock Thursday soon after a vio
lent explosion ripped through her
midsection.
Two Italians were known dead
and two to five workers, believed
trapped underwater aboard the
wreck, were presumed dead. More
than 35 persons were injured,
six seriously. Many were passers
by in the city's main square.
' A U.S. Navy spokesman said no
American ships or Navy men
were near the scene of the blast.
He added that the Navy offered
help but Italian officials said they
had the situation under control.
The ship went down in 40 feet
of water 1,000 feet from the main
square. Only part of her bow pro
jected above the surface.
Divers from the Naples fire de
partment were sent down to in
vestigate. The cause of the ex
plosion was not immediately de
termined. Eighteen crewmen and 10 work
ers, all Italians, were aboard the
ship completing a cleaning job at
the time of the explosion. The ves
sel was to have sailed later Thurs
day for Catania, Sicily.
The vessel was built in 1920 by
the Detroit Shipbuilding Co. as
the Montfaucon.

Organizational problems will

Beck said he would remain on
as president of the Teamsters Un

eligibility of James Hoffa, who
was elected president of the union
after Beck decided to retire.
Hoffa's claim to the presidency
was challenged after his election.
Beck said he plans to hold of

The Chicago Tribune said in a
copyrighted story that Gein had
told authorities in the crime lab
examination of "a strange sex
complex that motivated his sadis
tic rampage." The Tribune said
that Gein also "divulged new and
more horrifying details of his
ghoulish activities."
Wanted To Be Woman
In a dispatch from Madison,
Wis., the Tribune said it learned
that Gein, "a shy, sly, mild-mannered
bachelor, had wanted to be
a woman and that he said this
compulsion prompted him to kill
women and steal other bodies
from graves to get parts to wear
upon nis own ooay.
The story said "this most ap
palling denouement of the entire
case" came after Charles Wilson,
head of the State Crime labora
tory, reported that Gein had ad
mitted the killing of Mrs. Mary;
Hogan, 54, at his farm near Plain- -field,
in central Wisconsin. Mrs.
Hogan, a tavern operator at Ban- i

Dec. 8, 1954. Earlier Gein had ad-1

Gein was at the laboratory for I
a total of lO'i hours but under
went only short periods of lie de

was spent in interviews and inter-1

As he left the laboratory, clean j
