2 The Newi-Review, Roteburg, 0r. Sot., Aug. 31, 1963 TV 'FORM' FALSE HOPE Vol u n tee r To Ma ke Mine Hole Descent SHEPPTON, Pa. (UPI) State deputy mines chief Gordon Smith said today a volunteer would de scend more than 300 feet under ground Sunday in a search for missing miner Louis Bova. High-speed drills continued to ream out a rescue hole to Bova's presumed location. Smith said if no obstacles were encountered, a man would be lowered at the end of a rope about 6 p.m. Sunday. ' Bova, 52, buried in an Aug. 13 cave-in along with David Fcllin and Henry Throne, has not been heard from since Aug. 20. The other two were rescued early last Tuesday. A tense silence descended on this dusty valley Friday and on Umpqua Hotel Converts Rooms To Apartments A portion of the Umpqua Hotel in downtown Roseburg will take on a new look early in October when 16 new apartments become ready for occupancy. Hotel owner and manager Emil Ramberg said the Todd Building Co. should have the 16 apartments ready for occupancy within six weeks. There will be four of the small apartments, each complete with kitchens and dinettes, on each of the hotel's four floors. All will provide elevator service, maid and linen services and a tele phone, he said. Nine of the apart ments . will have separate bed rooms and living rooms, along with a kitchen and bath, while the other seven will be bachelor apart ments featuring kitchenettes, a combination living and sleeping room, and baths. Total cost of the remodeling proj ect, including new kitchen furnish ings, will be about $50,000. The en tire hotel was remodeled in 1960, following the Aug. 7, , 1959 blast. Ramberg said the apartment pol icy is being adopted by hotels in several sections of the country. He emphasized the Umpqua Hotel will continue normal hotel occupan cy, featuring 86 rooms for regular hotel guests. VENETIAN BLINDS Soles and Service SERVICEMASTER Of Roseburg 672-4601 W. Giva S&H Grten Stamps the men who have tirelessly probed the ground for Bova when H. Beecher Charmbury, state sec retary of mines, reported that a telcivion camera lowered into an escape hole had picked up what seemed to be the form of a man. That silence lasted until late in the day when Charmbury emerged from a tent after a con ference with Andy Dcbrikto, who had been lowered into the hole to investigate. Charmbury report ed to a crowd of more than 100: Concrete Plug It was a concrete plug, along with a piece of rope. It could easily give the appearance of a body, we are very proud that we have men like Andy who are willing to go down there and look around. Debrikto walked off, and the drills which had been silent all day suddenly went into operation again, filling the night with the whining that meant Louis Bova alive or dead, still was to be located deep in the earth. When Charmbury first saw the television image, he had reported excitedly that it seemed to show "a miner's hat, head, shoulders, arms, legs, and boots. The body appeared to be in a sitting po sition against a post." Hop Is Revived The picture had been taken in the 305-feet-deep hole through which Fellin and Throne were rescued, and though they report ed no communication with Bova since Aug. 20, it was believed the third man might have crawled into the chamber after their escape. When Bova s brothers Daniel and John saw the image arid re ported "it's possible, it's possi ble, excitement mounted at the lonely mine here. Shortly the number of spectators began to grow. Then Dist. Atty. Harry Light- stone made an appearance at the mine site. "I ve been informed there is a body down there," he said, "so I am here in my offi cial capacity. . .I'm putting every one on notice that there could possibly be something in my jurisdiction." More television pictures were to be attempted today, and the drilling continued unabated, but the chances for the survival of Louis Bova were privately con sidered slim by almost all ob servers here.

Investigating sheriff's deputies and a liquor control officer re port a call came from a resident of the Sutherlin area that some boys had hidden something in a culvert near the intersection of Plat M.

The four youth occupants had an other case of beer. On questioning they told the story that two of them had gotten the older man to buy the first case of beer for them and had hidden it in the culvert.

(Fox Studio) Glendale Man Makes It When He Can't Find What He Wants By MRS. GERALD B. FOX Glendale Correspondent. When Ivan C. Marriott of Sac ramento, Calif., and Glendale wants something special, he builds it. His latest piece of equipment is a home-built but factory perfect horizontal hydraulic drilling rig. Marriott, who owns the "O 1 d Glendale Junction" tourist court property three miles east of Glen dale, lives there during the sum mer in a houseear another of his Marriott "specials." A year ago, Marriott, a active retiree, helped a neighbor put in two large concrete water storage tanks on the hillside across the highway from his property. Togeth er they cleaned the spring, but the water was 90 feet away from the property and across a busy sec ondary highway. He didn't know of any equipment that could make a horizontal bore, and hand dig ging across the highway was diffi cult and expensive. There was only one thing to do and that was to build his own equipment, so he went to work dur ing his winter in Sacramento. When he returned to Glendale he had his portable rig towed to Oregon. A backhoe was obtained to cut a trench to start the bore, and in six hours time the drill had pene trated the entire 90 feet under the road, was withdrawn and disman tled. The drill came within a foot of its destination and two feet low er than planned. The machine resembles a stand ...1 n..- A..MI 1.... .i:rr- 4- ... ui u v.ui c uiiu, ijiu uiuem as lu ilex-' ibilily and portability. It comes in two parts heavy duty hydraulic pumping plant, powered by a baler motor to sustain 2'A tons pressure against the drill. In practice he uses 300 to 400 pounds pressure.1 The second part is a ram, powered by hydraulic motor which rotates the drill and moves the unit for ward or back on an eight-foot ma chined track. Short section drill stems are of hardened steel pipe through which flows a constant stream of water under high pres sure to cool the cutting edge of the bit and clear out debris from the bore. He designed the machine pri nts, .1 u .j.,5 lai'l't, km produce an artesian well effect. 's Marriott, 62, and retired, was ' fni-mrlv omnlnvpH Iw fh M. ramento and Fresno.
