Advanced Gifls Section
Of UF Drive Under Way
Central Douglas County's United
Fund Drive is under way "with
a very realistic goal to reach."
So said Jack Snodgrass, division
chairman for the advance gifts
portion of the drive, as he put his
section into motion at a Monday
luncheon in the Umpqua Hotel.
Meeting with 14 solicitors he de
scribed as "the cream of the
crop," he told of the division's
task of raising $10,190 from 80
firms in the Roseburg area. Total
campaign goal is $73,936.
Campaign Call Mad
Both he and Rod Durham, exe
cutive secretary of the Oregon Uni
ted Appeal, encouraged the solicit
ors to get into the campaign right
away.
Durham said he would like to
see the solicitors' returns in t h e
campaign office at 566 SE Jack
son St. by Friday.
Durham, who is acting as tech
nical adviser for the campaign,
said he would like to get the en
tire drive wrapped up by Thanks
giving," and I see no reason why
this shouldn't be if we all get out
and work." be said.
Commenting on the advance gifts
campaign, he noted "this area is
not reaching its potential by a
large margin.
"This is true because we have
not taken the time to talk with
management about employe giv
ing." he said.
The advance gifts section will
be dealing with firms having sev
en or less employes.
On Wednesday, he said a lunch
eon similar to -Monday's will be
held in the Coral Room of t h e
Umpqua Hotel on unit plan giv
ing. "Of 113 firms employing seven
or more employes, last year 72
didn't give a dime through em
ploye giving and 30 did not give
in the corporate drive." he point
ed out. Last year $53,000 was
raised.
Durham said the goal for the
U. S. Nuclear Test
Shots Being Eyed
SEATTLE (AP) The United
States may conduct nuclear tests
in the atmosphere over the Pa
cific Ocean next year, Sen. Henry
M. Jackson, D-Wash., said Mon
day. Such tests might include the
firing of Nike-Zeus anti-missile
missiles against other missiles,
Jackson said.
"We have weapons systems
which haven't been tested, includ
ing some components of the Nike
Zeus anti-missile." he said in an
interview. "And there is a strong
possibility that the Soviet Union
also has developed an anti-missile
missile.
Jackson was also asked about
competition between government
and private shipyards for shipyard
work.
"The yard that can do the work
should get the job," he said. "The
Puget Sound Naval Shipyard at
Bremerton, for instance, will play
an important part in the repair
and maintenance of nuclear sub
marines because it is best
equipped for the job."

area should be $12 per employe
for 69 per cent of the employes.
He noted that $12 last year pro
vided care for two days for an
unwed mother and her baby. The
fund aids approximately 1.200 un
wed mothers in a year whose aver
age age is 15 years and 7 months.
"It's a sordid picture but these
mothers are not street walkers,
prostitutes or girls trying to get
aid-to-dependent children," he said.
Children Benefit
Last year the fund provided $3.10
a day for 6,000 children through
participating agencies 71 of
these from Douglas County.
Durham noted that $12 per year
will allow some boy to participate
in scouting where, without the
money, the boy would be left out
of the program.
"Without scouting, we'd have
12,000 kids to care for instead of
6,000." he said.
Noting that $12 is a small sum,
he said smokers burn up between
$70 and $125 a year, coffee breaks
cost a person who takes them
quite regularly nearly $100 a year.
To many it amounts to three min
utes' wages a day.
"I'm confident we can go over
the top, if we all go out there and
work," he said.
Most of the drive will be under
way by Oct 24 Durham said.
'Black Cat Specials'
Due Friday, Saturday
"Black Cat Specials" is the
theme for merchant promotions

urday. A project of the Retail
Trades Division of the Rose
burg Chamber of Commerce,
the promotion is scheduled to

pers to offerings of Roseburg 1
merchants a the fall season

Participating merchants are
cooperating in their advertis
ing and are featuring the "Fri
day, the Thirteenth," theme.
The Retail Trades division is
endeavoring to hold several
promotions during the year to
attract out-of-towners to this
area, and more particularly to
encourage local residents to
shop in Douglas County rather
than in areas of larger cities
to the north and south.

its meeting Monday night received
a request from the Roseburg
School District asking that two
short streets on school property be
vacaiea.
The streets are segments, one
described as W. Alva Court be
tween Bellows St. and U. S. High
way 99 near the high school prop

Draft Office Is Victim
Of Bat Swinger's Wrath
ELIZABETH. N.J. (AP) Fred
Babish, 21, walked into the draft
board office Monday with a base
ball bat and started swinging.
Before he was subdued by pa
trolmen, he had smashed six win
dows, ruined several Venetian
blinds and chased the clerks into
the hallway.
Babish told police he had "a
grudge against the board."
He was charged with malicious
mischief and disorderly conduct.
But he added: "If they have a
submarine up to the state of the
Nautilus we'd be surprised."
The Nautilus was the first nu
'clear submarine. It was commis
j sioned about seven years ago and
the Navy since has evolved more
j advanced models.
The U S. fleet now has 14 nil
! clear attack submarines. A 15th
will be commissioned shortly.
Thirteen others are in various
stages of construction. Also with
the fleet is a nuclear submarine
armed with 500-mile range Regu
lus guided missiles.
An increasingly important ele
ment of U. S. striking power is the
Polaris submarine, capable of fir
ing atomic-tipped rockets over
1.200 miles. Six of these are at
sea or close to combat readiness.
Thirteen more either have been
launched or are being built.
The Navy has conceded the So
viets the capability to build nu
clear submarines, but has not re
ported sighting any.
One authority estimated the So
viets are between seven and eint
years behind the United States
in what he called a rudimentary
state of the art.
Navy sources scolfcd at the So
viet claim published bv the Soviet
newspaper Izvestia, that "Soviet
nuclear submarines are t'ie fast
est in the world."
As one officer put .c: "we'll
break any record they want to
set "
Abo-it 10 days ago, Adm.
George W. Anderson, chief of
naval operations, told newsmen
he believed the Soviets do not
own a ballistic missile that can
be launched from a siibmrrzfd
submarine, as is done by I'oiaris
subs.
Four Killed
By Berserk
Steel Worker
GARY. Ind. (AP)-A steel work
er ran amok with a pistol while
being reprimanded today for loaf
ing on the job and killed four men
betore he was shot down by a
plant guard.
Arbic Davis. 29. Gary, also
wounded four other men in the
wild rampage through several
buildings of the U.S. Steel Co.
sheet and tin mill.
Killed before the laborer died
with a guard's bullet in his head
were Joe Guydon. 37; Donald
Moran, 46; Royal Rutt and Neal
Wolfrath, 48.
Louis Massa. plant general la
bor foreman thought at first to
have been killed, was reported
later still alive in Merry Hospital.
Also wounded were Ben Proft
Gerald Myers, 48, and David
Shaefer, 29.
Authorities said Guydon, a track
gang boss, caught Davis and an
other worker talking when they
were supposed to be working. He
ordered them bark to work and
turned in a- report reprimanding
Davis for loafing.
Davis was told to report this
morning to Massa's office, where
he was awaited by Massa. Guydon
and Moran, track gang foreman.
It was not known whether the
workman said anything in the of
fice before opening fire with a
revolver, dropping all three fore
men. Davis then ran to the mainten
ance and utilities building, where
he shot Proft and Myers. Both
men aUo are foremen.
He went next door to the fac
tory's industrial relations office,
asked for a man who wasn't there,
entered another building and shot
Wolfrath and Rutt. Wolfrath was
a metallurgist. Kuft was a trainee.
Davis ran from that building,
filing three wild shots which spat
tered against the building wall.
Two workmea began W chase the
berserk gunman but stopped when
they saw him reload his pistol.
As he was reloading, plant pro
tection officer Chester Merida
drove up, got out and fired two
shots. The first slug caught Davis
in the head and killed him.
Russian Defects
In Amsterdam
AMSTERDAM, the Netherlands
(AP) A Soviet chemist, whose
defection to the West brought on
an airport brawl between the So
viet ambassador and Dutch police,
said today he had been engaged
in research on how to overcome
the effects of nuclear fallout on
human beings.
Police quoted him as saying he
defected because he lacked free
dom to carry on this research.
The defection of Alexei Golub,
35, resulted in a clash Monday
when Soviet Ambassador Pante
leimon K. Ponomarenko and his
aides went to the airport to put
the scientist's wile on a Moscow
bound plane. She finally decided
to leave her husband, perhaps for
ever, and went on back to Mos
cow. They had come here as
tourists.
Ponomarenko lost a button off
his raincoat in the brawl, and at
least one Soviet diplomat and a
policeman nursed injuries.
The incident brought newspaper
demands that Ponomarenko here
after be given only a one-way ad
mission to the airport en route
home.
' Golub. a doctor in biochemistry,
was quoted by a police spokesman
as saying he w-as seeking asylum
because he lacked professional
freedom.
He was quoted as saying he was
engaged in important research on
"how to remove strontium out of
the human body without affecting
the vital element, calcium." but
his superiors made him give up
the research for other work.
Strontium is one of the elements
from nuclear fallout. It concen
trates in the marrow of bones
and is the chief worry of scien
tists concerned with the effects of
nuclear explosions in the atmos
phere on the health of human
beings.

ing, also saw Secretary of Stale
Dean Rusk alone. Alphand and the
other envoys were not available
for comment after the conference.
The European allies were brief
ed on the recent conferences be
tween Rusk and Soviet Foreign
Minister Andrei A. Gromyko and
the two-hour meeting last Friday
between President Kennedy and
Gromyko.
SHirn Stop Backward
U.S. officials were reported to
have told the diplomats they do
not share the German and i rench,
assessments of the Gromyko talks.
Specifically, some Washington au
thorities disagree , with Wilhelin
Grewe, the German ambassador,
who said on Sunday that the Ken-nedy-Gromyko
meeting seemed to
him "a step backward."
The talks with Gromvko. these
officials said, represented neither
progress or regression. But the
said a number of points raised by
Kennedy and Rusk were left witli
out clarification.
Therefore Washington believes
that such an exchange should con
tinue. Officials suggested the best
approach would be to have Lle
wellyn Thompson, the U.S. am
bassador to Moscow, keep in con
tact with Gromyko.
Deer Hunting Toll
Totals 6 Humans
SEASIDE (AP) A hunter died
on a ranch south of Seaside Mon
day, raising Oregon's deer season
fatality toll to six.
Orlen Royce, 78, was believed
to have suffered a heart attack
after becoming separated from a
companion. Koyce was a retired
Seaside motel operator and gun
shop owner.
Heart attacks have claimed
three other hunters in Oregon. The
other hunting deaths were caused
by poison fumes in an outdoor liv
ing unit and a bullet wound.
At least four other hunters have
suffered non-critical bullet wounds
in the first 10 days of the state's
deer season.
Nov. 25, his body was found in
a Queens park. He had been shot
in the right temple with his own
gun and there was a suicide note
in his pocket.
There was no satisfactory ex
planation of what happened be
tween Monuay, when he was last
seen alive, and when his body was
found. Medical experts said Bang
Jensen died about 48 hours after
he left his home.
The Soviets, said Uie report,
had good reason to kidnap Bang
Jensen to pry from him what he
knew about Communist infiltra
tion in the United Nations' staff
and in U.S. intelligence agencies
and how much of this knowledge
he had handed on to American
authorities.
