Millionaire Is Walking
To The Fair In Seattle
Walking to the World's Fair at
Seattle is getting to be quite the
thing, and several persons are out
to prove that the fair is within
walking distance of anyone.
The latest walker to visit Rose
burg is Herbert H. Hasche, 62-year-old
millionaire, who is walking
from San Francisco. He started
May 9 and hopes to arrive at his
destination by July 4.
Hasche is one of four men select

ed an invitation to qualify for a
$1,000 prize with all expenses paid
to make the 1000-mile trek to cen

NLRB Tells Stand
On Election Rights
WASHINGTON (AP) - The
National Labor Relations Board
ruled 3-2 today it will deny from
now on a bargaining rights elec
tion bid by either party to a labor
contract no matter how long the
contract runs.
The decision amends the board's
general rule that labor contracts
serve to bar new bargaining
rights election petitions for only
two years.
The new rule was made in a
case involving the Montgomery
Ward & Co., Inc., catalog store
at Covington, Ky. The company
filed a petition for an election,
contending Retail Clerks Local
1099, AFL-CIO, no longer repre
sented a majority of employes.
The petition was filed in the
third year of a five-year contract
agreement. The board last No
vember had granted the Mont
gomery ward election peimon,
but today's split decision reversed
the earlier ruling and established
the new rule.
The board majority ruled: "We
cannot interpret our contract bar
rules in such a way as to permit
employers or certified unions to
take advantage of whatever bene
fits may accrue from the long-
term contract with the knowledge
they have an option to avoid their
contractual obligations and com
mitments through the device of a
petition for an election."

The darkly handsome D'Amico,
a former student at Food Trades
High School, worked as a pastry
chef in the Navy. On his dis
charge in 1954, he opened his own
bakery but sold it a year later
when he deeided to seek a higher
education.
To support himself, his wife and
their two children while attending
college during the day, D'Amico
worked nights as a bookkeeper.
He said he hasn't yet decided
on a design for the cake he and
his daughter will share, "but for
an occasion like this, you can be
sure it'll be a beauty."
The last time D'Amico took
really special pains on a cake-
baking project was when he was
aboard the aircraft carrier USS
Leytc. The captain asked for a
big cake to mark the 12th anni
versary of the Waves, and D'Ami
co obliged.
He came up with a 9-foot cake
in the shape of aniarcraft car
