LIBRARY ARRIVALS Thur., May 10, 1962 The News-Review, Roseburg, Ore. 5 o Woman Combat Reporter Recounts Adventures While On Assignment A combat reporter'! report on herself is "What's a Woman Doing Here" by Dickey Chapelle. The question has been asked by pilots, paratroopers, U. S. Marines, Hungarian Freedom Fighters, Rus sian secret police, Cuban and Al gerian revolutionaries and Ameri cans the world over. Dickey Chap elle (who stands just over five feet in her paratroopers' boots) has never paid homage to the usual conventions in the area of combat reportirg, usually marked "for men only." Truth Sought As a reporter she has accepted assignment that would give a brav" man pause. She has done so not because she loves danger or violence, but because as a wom an whe has always sought the truth. Some of her adventures chronicled include the time she parachute-jumped with our troops in Korea, landed with the Marines in Lebanon and was caught behind the Iron Curtain during the Hun garian uprising and held prisoner for 80 days by the secret police. Her account of her experiences is often amusing. It is frequently mov ing and is always spirited. Post-War Story A novel of Kentucky after the Civil War is "The Fairbrothers" by Clark McMeekin. This is the story of Zion, a frightened- girl of 14, who, masquerading m the clothes of her dead mother, applied for a job in the Fairbrothers School for Girls in Louisville, Ky. Quite inno cently, Zion ended the Fairbroth er school, but stayed on with the family. She affects the lives of all the Fairbrothers. Mrs. Fairbrother and the Major found after a while that Zion was becoming the daugh ter they needed and could love, and most useful when the house itself was turned into one of the new and fashionable "health spas."

Primary Election Activity Steps Up As Oregon's May 18 Balloting Hears By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Primary election candidates be . gan stepping up their appearances, I statements and general activity this week as Oregon's May 18 bal loting neared. Asparagus Still Is Excellent Buy In Vegetables Consumer Marketing Agent Written for The Associated Press Washington asparagus, mostly from Sunnyside, is still a very good buy in vegetables. Supplies are ample although there is no price change from last week. Colder weather is holding back heavier supplies. Green onions, radishes and bunch greens are mostly local and are good buys for the salad bowl. Washington spinach is of excellent quality with bright green crisp leaves. Spinach is high enough in quality to be eaten either raw or cooked. New supplies of dry onions from California and Texas are coming to market. Other good buys in vegetables are broccoli, carrots and cauliflower. The potato market is a little firmer. Smaller size artichokes are fairly reasonable in price, but the large sites are a moderate ' buy. Bunch beets from California, green cabbage, celery, cucum bers, eggplant, parsnips, turnips and rutabagas are all moderate buys in vegetables. Fresh corn from the Coachella Valley in California is a moderate buy, but supplies are not too heavy. Both lettuce and romaine are quite firm in price but better supplies of lettuce are expected by the weekend. Green peppers are higher in price this week. c..nnl;nt. it inmatnps are short and they have jumped to the high price level. There's still time to can or freeze Washington outdoor rhu barb. Supplies are very plentiful and quality is excellent with long, Crimson red stalks. Supplies of n-iitnmia etrnwhprrips are in creasing and the price is lower than last week. The quality is annA WinPRfln SDDleS. SVQ- cados, bananas and Valencia or anges round out the gooa uuys in fruits. , . Moderate buys in fruits are shorter this week with only limit ed supplies of Emperor grapes available. Papayas, pineapples and watermelon are other moder ate buys. Delicious apples are still only a moderate buy, but the quality is very good. The livestock market has changed little from last week. So far, there have been no increases in beef prices, but the market has a definite firm undertone. Look for good values in beef chuck and chuck steaks. Pork will also be a good value for Mother's Day. Pork loins are up about 3 cents a pound over a year ago. The fryer market is still weak throughout the entire country and fryers are definitely a good value. Fresh filet of sole and red snapper, as well as frozen King salmon and dressed Silver smelt are vl seafood buys this week. The halibut fishing area opens this week, and supplies of fresh halibut should be coming to mar ket by the end of the week. Winners Of Literary Contest Are Reported The second annual Sutherlin jun ior high school literary publication was issued last week and names nt winner ff fh Mnfput WPTP HlS- closed. The publication was under the direction of Mrs. Alice West, and the journalism class, reports correspondent Mrs. Jerry DeMuth. Winners included: short story: Teresea Bird, first; Cheryle Col vin, second; Greg Egglcston, third. Essay: Ruth Pulley, first; Tom Hall, sr.jnd; John Neufeld, third. Poetry: Frank Van Cleave, first; Cynthia Phillips, second; and Frank Van Cleave, third. Serving as judges for the event were frs. Warren Kadas, E. A. Wt and Richard Scott. Even candidates without pri mary opposition, or with only nominal contests, began hand shaking the voters, looking for ward to the general election in November. Among the doings: Glenn Brixey, Corvallis, candi date for the Republican nomina tion for the Senate, sent a tele gram to Dr. Linus Pauling chal lenging him to a debate on nuclear testing and civil defense, issued a statement saying that even with out Pauling's recent address in Portland, that city was "confused enough on civil defense," and issued another asking equal time on college platforms to answer Gus Hall, Communist Party secretary, who spoke on several Oregon campuses some weeks ago. Jim Bacaloff, Portland, also after the Republican senatorial nomination, issued a statement saying a Waterhouse Poll was un der way in which only two of the six Republican candidates were mentioned. He said the poll asks voters whether they favor Rep. Edwin Durno over Sen. Wayne Morse or Sig Unander over Morse. This, said Bacaloff, hides the true strength of the other Republican candidates. Durno-for-Senator billboards be gan springing up as he put added efforts into his campaign, especi ally in the Portland area, where he is less well known than Unan der. Unander released a copy of his reply to Harold Livingston, Ore gon Slate University speech pro fessor, who issued a challenge to Unander for a debate. In it, Unan der said the challenge came too late in the campaign. He said he was spending all his energy point ing to "the sorry record of our senior senator and pointing out how we can bolster the economy of the state of Oregon." Morse, opposed on the Demo cratic side only by an unknown, Charles E. Gilbert, Portland crane operator, set up a series of talks for three days this week. That will about wind up his campaigning as he will not return from Washing ton until the day before the elec tion. Tuesday he speaks at Port land, Beaverton and Salem; on Wednesday at Lebanon and New port; Thursday at Roseburg and Eugene. Circuit Court Complaint H. R. Winston vs. James Gour ley.

Morse Raps His Biography WASHINGTON (AP) Sen. Wayne Morse, D-Ore., took vigor ous exception this week to a biog raphy of him by a Washington columnist A. Robert Smith. He called it a "character assas sination book full of untruths" and said, "It's author is the Washing ton correspondent of several anti Morse newspapers in Oregon." The book is entitled, "The Tiger in the Senate." Advance copies are in circulation, and it will be released May 25. Morse, who is running for fourth term, said the book "is full of untruths, half truths, out-of-con- text distortions and oft-repeated Republican misrepresentations. "The fact that the book's pub lishers did not submit the manu script to me in advance of publi cation so that I could have pointed out to them its mis-statements and slanted journalism is indicative of the political purposes of the book, he continued. 'I realize I am fair game for my political enemies in the forth coming campaign and this book is their first attack on me. There will be others. Nevertheless my faith in the judgment of the people con vinces me that they will recognize the unfairness and political moti vations of the book." Smith replied. "My book is non partisan but not without criticism They (the publishers) refused Senator Morse s request to censor the book because they agree with me that a journalist s first respon sibility in a democracy is to the public. "I have tried to help the public to understand the senator and his record. Senator Morse knows that I have given him far more credit for valuable service than any of his oolitical enemies ever will. The readers will decide who is being fair." Snowden Desires To Resign From Job LONDON (AP) Lord Snowdon, Princess Margaret's husband, has been telling his friends he wants to give up his job on the Sunday Times, the Daily Sketch reported this week.

The Sketch said Roy Thomson owner of the Sunday Times, said the report wasn't true, that "Lord Snowdon is very happy in his work."

"Unused to colleagues of his rank a hush falls on t room when he enters some of them have found difficulty in adjusting themselves to the presence of the queen's brother-in-law. The Sunday Express reported Sunday that Snowdon is searchin for an apartment away from Ken sington Paiace, where he lives I with hit wife.
