Second Big Scandal
Many of the nation's leading
teams, including City College or ;
New York, Bradley and the Uni-i
versily of Kentucky, were in-
volved in betting scandals which
swept college basketball competi
tion in 1951.
Scores of players were drawn,
into the huge net. Players were;
accused of taking bribes irom
gamblers to fix the point spread
in big games, most of them at
Madison Square Garden.
Dayton won the garden game
from Seton Hall 112-77. Colgate
beat Connecticut 83-71.
Dayton and Colgate were favor
ites, but the betting spread was
not immediately available.
Police said both Wagman and
Hacken were gamblers function
ing In an almost nationwide syn
dicate in which bookmakers were
described as the victims.
Both Miave figured in previous
bribery cases involving sports, po
lice said.
Wagman was Involved in an at

Florida football player last No
vember, police added, and Hack
en figured in a fix involving Clar
ence Henry, a heavyweight boxer,
in 1954.
Appearing before the House
Education subcommittee, Msgr.
Hochwalt repeated the church's
stand that no aid bill is prefer
able to one which docs not in
clude a program of long-term,
lowinlcresl loans to private
schools.
Asked what the Church would
expect of Catholic congressmen if
the measure comes to the floor
without such an amendment, he
replied: "They would have to vote
according to their consciences.
They would have a moral judg
ment to make as to what would
be of greater national value."
The Americans for Democratic
Action endorsed the position taken
by President Kennedy that any
program of loans to church-supported
and other private schools
would he incorporated In a Sep
arate hill.
Dr. Harold Taylor, former pres
ident of Sarah Lawrence College,
testified before the llouso subcom
mittee today that the issue of aid
to private elementary and second
ary schools "raises constitutional
and policy questions of a serious
nature." ,
Taylor, speaking for the ADA,
said these questions should not be

Kennedy Orders
Interception End
WASHINGTON (AP)-Presidcnt
Kennedy today ordered an imme
diate, halt to the government's
practice of intercepting Commu
nist propaganda mailed to this
country from abroad.. ,
The White House said in a state
ment that a review of- the prac
tice by four federal departments
"has disclosed that the program
serves no useful intelligence func
tion at the present time." '
A statement said further that
discontinuance of the interception
was unanimously recommended
by a committee of the Planning
Board of the National Security
Council last June 29.
The White House said that since
1948 various degrees of ipntrol
over such propaganda mail have
been exercised by the Customs
Bureau and the Post Office De
partment. Since 1951, the pro
gram lias been extended to a spot
check or censorship of all mail
except first-class.
"Not onlv has the intelligence
value of the program been found
to be of no - usefulness, but the

American Personal Income
Takes Big Drop For Year
WASHINGTON (AP)-The per
sonal Income of Americans sank
$700 million to an annual rate of
$405.90 billion annually in rebru
lary, the Commerce Department
i reported today.
ine sag, reflecting a drop of
nearly a billion in payments of
wages and salaries from the Jan
uary rale, uava no comfort tn
government economists looking
ior me oouom oi me recession.
It ran counter to earlier eco
nomic reports on February which
showed a rise in retail sales, home
building and steel production, and
a levellng off of over-all Industri
al output after an uninterrupted
six-month decline. -
The Kederal Reserve Board, re
porting Thursday on the indus
trial output situation, said the fig-
Uires amounted to the first sign
mat ine recession has reached
bottom or is close to it.
The drop in wage and salary
fiayments and dividend income
ast month was only partly offset
by a slight gain in farmers' in
come and a rise of $200 million
in unemployment compensation
benefits and other ' so-called
"transfer payments" from gov
ernment trust funds. .
The income total was $10 billion,
or 2',"j pur cent, above that for
February 1900, the department
said, but $4 billion less than the
peak of nearly $410 billion a year
reached last October.
About half the drop occurred in
manufacturing, with most of the
decrease attributed to substantial
cutbacks in plants producing au
tos and other transportation equip
ment and in the fabricated metals
industries.
v This was exactly opposite to the
trend for which private and gov
ernment economists had been
hoping. The rate of decline in a
number of key indexes had slowed
or halted in February, leading of
ficials to believe that the trough
of the recession was being or
had been reached. ,r

Algerian Rebels
Agree To Meet
TUNIS (AP)-The Algerian reb
el government in exile today
agreed to official peace negotia
tions with France.
A communique issued by rebel
Information Minister Mohamed
Yazid said (he rebel government
had taken the necessary steps to
send a delegation to meet with a
similar French group.
The communique was issued
after the Algerian cabinet ended
three days of discussions of the
prospects opened by President
Charles De Gaulle's offer to ne
gotiate self-determination for Al
geria without prior conditions.
Informed sources said secret
contacts which have been going
on between the rebels and the
French for ending the 7-year-old
Nationalist rebellion have ironed
out-agreements already on some
points.
, These reportedly include the ne
cessity for continued French eco
nomic aid in Algeria, continued
use of French currency and the
need for a long transition period
in Algeria during which the tern
Ders of both sides could cool.
Today's communique said -the
French statement of March 15 is a
positive response to the rebel de
sire to engage in negotiations "for
a free consultation of the Algerian
people," in other words on even
tual self-determination. The com
munique added:
"To this effect, the provisional
government of the Algerian repub
lic has taken dispositions with a
view to bringing about a meeting
of official delegations coming
from the two governments.

Membership in the Roseburg
YMCA is pushing 2,000, and par

ity points up the pressing need the
community has had for a "Y"
facility, according to ' Wayne
Schulz, executive secretary.
Schulz, in a talk on the "Y"

Club said the actual membership
to date is 1,774, but at the currant
rate of growth the 2,000 figure is

328 men and 332 women.
Short Of Need
Pledges, he said, are coming in
very well. The budget is current
ly about $8,000 short of need, and
there are still about $45,000 in
pledges outstanding. The program
has been hampered to' some extent
by the fact the United Fund drive
fell about $7,000 short of the budg

SALEM (AP) The state
Board of Control said Thursday
that its plan for an $800,000 wom

the problem of housing women
felons.
Claire Argow, Portland, repre
senting the Women's Prison Coun
cil,' told the board that some
legislators are suggesting the
state tuberculosis hospital be used
for a women's prison. She Quoted
the legislators as saying the state
plans to close that hospital.
Gov. Mark O. Hatfield, board
chairman said, "You are getting
a poor demonstration of a legis
lative run-around. The last legis
lature directed the board to pre
pare a plan for building a worn
en's prison, and I have included
it in my budget.
"This business of using the tu
berculosis hospital for a prison is
pure fiction. Nobody is going to
close it because the need is there
and the patients are there. It is a
puDlic health problem and we
can't put the patients into the
streets. Put the legislators back
into the corner where they be
long." ine hoard expressed worrv
over the mounting population of
the penitentiary and correctional
institution. It said this might force
the board to revise its budget up
wards. ,
Hal Randall, state parole di
rector, said the increase is
caused by longer sentences, few

At the same time, he added, the
courts are placing more convict

ELEPHANT BRAND
FERTILIZER PAID
FOR THIS CAR
This is not an exaggeration. By the
proper and effective use of Elephant
Brand fertilizer thousands of farmers
have been able to make the money for
something they wanted, such as a
new car or new farm machinery.
With Elephant Brand fertilizer you
grow bigger crops. Your cost of grow
ing the crop is spread over more crop
units (more bushels, bales, tons or
pounds) so you grow each unit for
less. Lower production cost per unit
means you increase the difference
between cost price and selling price
- that difference is your profit.
Using Elephant Brand will mean more
money for you in three ways: first,

Schulz reviewed the history of
the YMCA program, founded in
1849, describing it as a Christian
organization for Christian people.
But no one is turned away re
gardless of his religious beliefs, he
added. The aim is to attract any
one who conducts himself prop
erly, thus interesting the partici
pant in wholesome pursuits.
He traced the 13-year history of
the Roseburg YMCA, which, he
emphasized, is a program, not a
building. The building merely of
fers facilities for the program. The
local organization was founded in
May 1948. It used other facilities,
then started its building plans.
Four acres of land were acquired
for $200 from the city. A swim
ming pool was included in the
building plans, as an alternative
to a gymnasium, since school
gyms are available. A gym can he
built at some future date. Total
cost has run around $275,000.
Schulz emphasized that no boy
or girl will be turned away be
cause they lack membership. But,
he urged everyone who could to
sponsor memberships for those
who couldn't otherwise join. He
reviewed various programs for the
"Y" here. He mentioned also that
the Roseburg group will sponsor
a summer camp this year at the
Camp White Branch camp ground
near the McKcnzie Pass, rather
than go to the Mcdford-sponsored
camp at Diamond Lake.
