r Q O 0 O 2 The News-Review, Roteburg, First Spouse Fails To Change Caryl LOS. ANGELES (AP)-On Aug 8. 1940, a 16-year old high school girl rmrried a boy of 18 with dark, curly hair and a bad rep utation. His name: Caryl Chess man. "Like all women," said the at tractive housewife who was once that girl, "1 thought. 'I'll change him.' But he's not to be changed." The former Mrs. Chessman re married and is a mother. The early part of her life is so com pletely closed she agreed to talk to newsmen who traced her only if they would promise not to use her name. Easy Monoy She told a story of a brief mar riage that was happy except for one thing: Her young husband wanted to make money the easy way. "I began to have suspicions when I looked in his drawer and found it loaded with all kinds of artillery from the biggest to the littlest. Then in 1941 he came home one night and dumped a sackful of money on the bed," she said. "The bed was just covered with monev. 1 fussed and got mad, but it didn't do any good. He just laughed." Awaits Death Chessman is awaiting execution. The death date his eighth is Slay 2. Newsmen asked the wom an if she thought he would es cape death this time, as he had the previous seven, through legal maneuvers or action by the gov ernor. "I think he will be executed," she said. She said, she thinks he is in nocent of charges of kidnaping i and sex perversion. "There was nothing abnormal about him, whatsoever," said the former Mrs. Chessman. "Even when we were going together as high school kids he always re spected 'no.' He was never one to use force." 15 Years Penalty On Morals Charge Claude Allen, S3, Oakland, was sentenced to 15 years in the state penitentiary by Judge Charles S. Voodrich in Douglas County Cir cuit Court this morning on a rape charge. He was accused of raping a 15-year-old Oakland girl in a Grand Jury indictment filed Sept. 8, 195t.

The Council cut S98 from ons piece of property and SIM from another. This action came following for mal protests by the property own ers, who appeared at the public hearing which was part of t h e council meeting. The $248 will be made up by drawing funds from the sewer extension construction fund. Two written protests from prop erty owners in the Miller's Addi tion were rejected. Both sewer project assessments were passed by the council and ordinances for payment of the as sessments were ordered drawn. A public hearing on the proposed extension of the Miller's Addition was also passed, with no protests being filed. City Engineer Ken Meng was then ordered to draw up specifications for the construction. The total estimated cost of this project is $13,105.62, or six cents per square foot assessment to the 25 parcels of land in the extension area affected. The total cost of the Miller s Ad dition sewer was $40,844 47, to be prorated between the 121 parcels of land. Total cost of the Sherwood-Sharp sewer was $130,106 84, to be prorated between 633 par cels of land. Both of these sewers have been installed. ' The fourth public hearing Mon day night was on the S48.613.88 supplemental budget. The budget was approved as presented by the council. There were no objections filed. Funds for this budget came from insurance and salvage from the Aug. 7 blast. Airport Board Includes Davis Roseburg City Councilman Jack Davis Monday night was appoint ed to serve on the council's Air port Committee. Davis will join councilmen Les West and Virgil Walls in attempting to work out any possible changes in the lease agreement with airport manager R. L. Beverly. Beverly had requested that the council continue to bill the firm of which he is president, Roseburg Skyways. Inc., S50 per month plus two cents per gallon of gasoline sold, but that all pavments of this uiiuiig ueierrea in neu ot con sideration of improvements made to the airport. The council felt it might be pos sible to take future payments of this type and put them in an es crow account for future improve ments, but did not feel arrange ments should be made for past improvements. A council decision will await a meeting between Beverly and the council committee, which is expect ed this week. Other action taken by the council included passing at all three read ings an ordinance changing the city's election ward boundaries. A small corner of the city south of W. Military Are. and east of the freeway had been left out under the past boundary ordinance and residents of that area would not have been able to vote in city elec tions. The council also approved par tial payment on the triangle sew er district project and granted a license to operate an upholsterv and rug cleaning establishment to Merle M. O'Dell. providing such operation would comply with zoning and fire regulations.

(Photo by Chris) Power Asked By Ike Over Sugar Quotas WASHINGTON (AP) President Eisenhower plans to ask Congress for discretionary authority to raise or lower sugar import quo tas. The time for action, how ever, is indefinite. The President also plans to ask Congress shortly for immigration legislation which would approxi mately double the 154.000 immi grants allowed to enter the coun try annually. Republican congressional lead ers disclosed the administration programs for sugar and immigra tion after their regular weekly meeting with the chief executive. Both subjects probably will be covered in special messages to Congress. The discretionary power to change sugar import quotas, said Senate GOP Leader Everett M. Dirksen of Illinois, would apply to all foreign countries except the Philippines. He declined to go so far as to say, however, that any provisions of the administration's new sugar legislation are specifi cally aimed at Cuba. The proposed discretionary au thority for the cbief executive, he said, is not necessarily a result of the Cuban situation There has been considerable dis cussion, in and out of Congress, of the idea of cutting down Cuba's share of the U S sugar market in response to bitter attacks by Prime Minister Fidel Castro's re gime against this country, ani to the seizure of U.S. - owned properties. The administration, however, has denied it is planning econom ic reprisals. The United States subsidizes Cu ban sugar by buying it above world market prices.
