Grim Ornament
About three years ago, Steve
Lcljechuck's 5-year-old son was
rummaging around in the
backyard and he found an old
20 mm. cannon shell.
The shell was so handsome
the Myrtle Creek family decid
ed to polish up the shell and
use it as an ornament around
the house. The South Myrtle
Kd. resident had no reason to
he alarmed by the find, since
the cartridge had obviously
been discarded.
Lebechuck sandpapered it
and set it up in the kitchen
window at his South Myrtle
Hd. home.
But this week, the projectile
took on grim importance. Ar
thur J. Davis of 1I6 NE Bea
con Way, Roseburg, was visit
ing the ihechucks, when some
one handed it to him prouldy.
"I almost jumped out of my
skin." Davis said today.
Having been an ammunition
training commander in Eur
ope during World War II. he
was familiar with such shells.
He said he thinks it is still
"live."
If it is, he said, it could be
set off by being dropped or
Jarred.
He wasted no time in getting
it to the Myrtle Creek police,
who turned it over to the Sher
iff's office. Sheriff Ira Byrd
said today he had called Army
Ordnance at the Vancouver,
Wash. Army barracks. An offi
cer will be sent to take charge
of the shell immediately.

At least seven affirmative votes

Ghana's resolution reportedly
was drawn up before South Afri
can Foreign Minister Eric Louw
made his policy speech in the

down the wrath of the African
group and resulted in a 671 vote
of censure against Louw.
Louw has claimed the concert

censure vote and move for expul

I.ouw said the unprecedented
censure of his speech was sure
to loose a tide of resentment
among South Africans who have
long smarted under U N", attacks.
He said it might provoke demands
that South Africa pull out of the
world body.
Louw declined to speculate if
his government would agree
such demands.

W. Russell.
Sheriff's investigator Rill .Ma
raggos gave this account of the
uu-ident:
Young Russell entered the home
of Mrs. Sarchet, who is pregnant,
pointed a JI8 revolver at her and
ordered her to give him her hus
band's .22 pistol and 16-gauga
shotgun. Then he forced her to
call another neighbor, Violet Mc
Kay. Russell hailed the car in a ruial
arca. allowed the women to drive
away, and headed toward an
abandoned farmhouse.
The women called officers. At
the officers closed in on the ahan-
doncd house, Sgt. Halligan spotted
the youth at a nearby home and
pointed a flashlight at lum. The
youth fired several shots, one of
them hitting the sergeant.
Officers then surrounded this
home. The boy's mother arrived
and, crying, called to her son:
"Johnny, Johnny, don't you know
what you've done?"
A few minutes later, the boy
stood up and called out to the ap
proaching officers: "Don't shoot!
1 give up!"
The youth was Jailed without
charge.
