Jockion His attorney described him as a "highly sexed man who has had affairs with a great many wom en." Ward, osteopath, artist, and 50-year-old playboy, agreed that he was "thorougly immoral." He began his testimony shortly after Miss Keeler, 21-year-old red haired call girl, testified for a second time and then ran the gauntlet of a jeering, hooting crowd of more than 1,000 persons as she left the court. Two eggs were thrown at Christine, hut they missed, and she was un harmed as police held back the crowd and hustled her away in a taxi. Introductd To Profumo Beginning his story of the scan dal that threatened to topple the British government, Ward said he was' introduced to Profumo by Viscount Astor, owner of the famed Cliveden estate where Ward maintained a cottage. The subsequent affair between Christine and the war minister after they met at Cliveden re suited in Profumo's resignation and an uproar against the Con servative , government of Prime Minister Harold Macmillan. As the scandal spread, Ward was brought to trial on charges of liv ing on the immoral earnings of Christine and of seducing young girls into a life of vice. Under questioning by defense attorney John Burgc, Ward said he did not feel that Christine was a "prostitute." "It all depends on what you mean by a prostitute," he said. "If vou simnlv mean a woman who sells her body that would apply to any woman who married for money. "I myself thoroughly disapprove of any woman wno tones money for sex alone. Ward, who said he had had many distinguished sitters as an artist, testified that he has been a friend of Lord Astor, 55-ycar-old son of American-born Lady Nancy Astor, for 12 years. "We are great friends and we are on very close terms," he said, adding that Lord Astor had helped him financially from time to tune. Paid Nominal Ront Ward said he paid a nominal rent of only one pound ($2.80) a year for a cottage on Lord As tor's estate. It was while she was a guest at this cottage that Miss Kecler look a nudo moonlight dip in the swimming pool on the grounds and met Profumo. Another of Ward's guests at the cottage was Capt. Eugene Iva nov, Soviet naval uttacho and also one of Miss Keclcr's frolic friends. The fact that she had the British war minister and a possible Hussian spy as ploy- motes at the some urno icu 10 n ' security debate in Parliament. I In preceding Wind to tho stand Christine, a prosecution witness who was summoned by (leicnse for further testimony, admitted thut Ward once took her to the police and asked them to make her quit smoking marijuana ciga rettes and to stop running around with colored men from the West Indies.

Yoncalla City Hall Will Get The Bird The city of Yoncalla Is going to get the bud, so-to-spcak. The bird is a weather-beaten 75- pound terracotta eagle that stared down on downtown Portland for 35 years. It will find a new home adorning the Yoncalla City Hall. In a ceremony Monday afternoon at the Portland City Hall, the "bird" was presented to Mrs. Fred (June) Bowman, city record er of Yoncalla, by Portland Mayor Terry Schrunk. Mrs. Bowman was declared winner of the eagle in a contest conducted by Oregon Mu tual Savings Bank.

But it developed that Centennial lliuh School ot Portland has on eagle as a in ascot; sd docs Hudson Boy High School ot Vancouver, Wash! . One woman in Salem sent In on entry, giving her reason for want ing the eagle:-"I'd present it to my husband who has been giving me the 'bird' for 22 years. That ought to stop him.
