Pro-Red Laos Prince Offers
To Meet Neutralist Leader
VIENTIANE, Laos (t'PI)-Pro-Communisl
Palhet Prince Sou
phanouvong has offered to meet
with neutralist Premier Souvanna
Phouma in the vicinity of the
Plain of Jars airfield a Palhet
Lao spokesman said May.
Public Works Minister Souk
Vongsak said the offer was made
in a telegram which Souphanou
vang sent to Souvanna, apparent
ly in response to a joint appeal
by Britain and Russia for imme
diate peace negotiations.
No other details were availa
ble. The premier's office had no
comment on the telegram, the
latest in a series of rapid-fire ex
changes between the Pathet Lao
chief and Souvanna.
Vongsak has been Souphanou
vong's chief go-between in his
dealings with Souvanna. A mem
ber of Souvann's coalition gov
ernment, Vongsak is one of the
few Patlict Lao officials slill
based in Vientiane.
On the surface, the telegram
appeared to be the first positive
response to the Anglo-Soviet
peace appeal since Vongsak de
livered it to Souphanouvong last

'Nature Girl' Of 1957 Wins
College Degree; Will Teach
GREENSBOLO,
N.C. (UPI)
At 16, she was an uneducated
North Carolina mountain girl who
wandered the backwoods in tat
tered clothes and often without
enough to eat.
Today, Miss Dorothy Brown,
1957's "nature girl" is a college
graduate and looking forward to
a teaching career and being
"somebody."
Dorothy's success story goes
back to a hot day in August of
1957. On that day, Moorcsville
newspaperman Tom McKnight
and a photographer captured her
natural beauty on film as the
girl, who became known as "Long
Sam," after the cartoon charac
ter, stood beside a mountain
stream.
In National Spotlight
McKnight was responsible for
national distribution of the picture
and later the Charlotte Observer
ran a Sunday feature on the back
woods girl which was picked up
around the country and overseas.
Dorothy suddenly found herself
pushed Into a national spotligtu
before a aometimes unbelieving
public.
Dorothy was one of nine chil
dren of Mr. and Mrs. Albert C.
Brown who lived a hand-to-mouth
existence near Moorcsville. The
couple withdrew Dorothy from
school when she was 14 to help
take care of the other children
and to do part time work in the
area as a babysitter.
"There were Kits of skeptics
then and I suppose there are
now," Dorothy recalled after
graduating from Woman's College
here.
"We did live in destitute cir
cumstances and there were times
when we didn't have anything to
eat. You can't begin to imagine
what it was like to live like we
did unless you've experienced a
similar existence," she said.
Appointed Guardian
After his discovery, McKnight
Accident Injures
Sutherlin Woman
Mrs. Arthur (Ethel) Kincher. of
Rt. 1. Sutherlin. suffered a broken
knee cap. a bruised nose and other :
minor injuries when her car went
into a ditch Sunday about 10:30
a.m.
The accident, according to state
police, took place on the Comslork
Road near the Deady Junction.
.Mrs. Kincher was alone at the
time. The front end of the car
was badly damaged. She was taken
to Douglas Community Hospital for
treatment.
Sl;it officers expressed happi-
nt.ee thnt nn mninr arirlnn. nntn.
I through the weekend
was appointed the young girl's
guardian and later an elderly
Charlotte philanthropist paid $750
a year toward her education at
Wingate Junior College where she
crammed four years of courses
into Iwo years before transfer to
Woman's College.
At the time Dorothy said
You've got to have an education
to be somebody."
She still stands by her desire
to be somebody. "I still want to
be somebody, not necessarily
somebody special, but a person
who is worthwhile and who can
help others in some way."
This fall, Dorothy will begin
teaching on the elementary level
in the Charlotte - Mecklenburg
County school system.
"Tell all those people who have
written to me or have helped me
along with their good wishes how
appreciative I am of what has
been able to happen to Dorothy
Brown," she told reporters short
ly after her graduation Sunday.

old Western States Resaw Plant.
Alarm for the quick-spreading
fire was turned in at 5:30 p.m. aft
er smoke was seen pouring from
the building. Tinder-dry conditions

Calapooia Ave., was owned by Paul
Ricatto of Pasadena. Calif. It is
not known if any insurance was
