program for which Kenneth York
was master of ceremonies Tuesday

room.
Ralph Dobbs, pianist, provided a
novelty number, posing as a left

was a mail order catalog. Snap
clothes pins held several sheets of
the catalog together for his con
venience in turning.
Sound effects for York's mono
logue skit were provided by the
guests and members who followed
scores distributed for their guid
ance. The farce reached a high
point when one member "blinked"
th litrhts in the large banquet
room and the house electrician
was observed almost immediately
coming into the room to "check up"
on the unscheduled "lights out."

berth on the Southern Pacific's West Coast Limited early Saturday
morning in Oregon. ;
Chester Holmes, an electrician mi urc uuiu,
plant, flew here to be with his wife, a 35-year-ol J mother of two son.
Her screams at 2:15 a. m. Sat
urday from the lower berth five
brought passengers running and
launched an investigation which
so far has not resulted in arrests.
Railroad and Pullman Co. special
agents carried on the investigation
on the train all the way to Los
Angeles. ,' .
The reported attack occurred
near Oakridge, Ore., while Mrs.
Holmes was en route here from
her home in North Richland,
Wash. Two sailors, questioned for
7 M hours here, were released.
Holmes told a reporter that his
wife is still distraught, hysterical
and suffering from shock. He re
layed what he said was her first
coherent account of the assault.
He said:
She had two highballs with an
elderly woman train acquaintance
during a stop at Portland, Ore.
Later she joined a penny ante po
ker game on the train, then re
tired after drinking a bottle and
a half of beer.
She did not see her attacker
but a serviceman occupying a
berth across tht aisle told her he
saw a necro weaiine long under
wear running through the sleep
er aisle just after she screamed.
A second' serviceman, occupying
nearby quarters, said he saw a
similar fieure.
The servicemen had' a porter
call the train conductor. One ser
viceman sat up with Mrs. Holmes
the rest of the night until the train
reached Klamath Falls, Ore.,
where Diet. Atty. Dayton Van
Victor took over the investigation.

YW Building
Zone Change
Recommended
(Story also on page 1)
A zone change designed to per
mit the proposed construction of
new YWCA building at 768 State
U site of the present YW, was
given the approval of the Salem
planning and zoning commission
Tuesday night in city hall.
The commission recommended
to the city council a change from
the present class I-C (capitol zone)
to a class III-X zone restricted to
a YWCA building. The YW had
asked a class III general business
zone.
Under the commission's recom
mendation the YW would be able
to observe a State street setback
line about the same as it had
planned in its request. The YW
had agreed with a remonstrating
Salem public library board to have
the main part of its new building
set back as far as the telephone
building immediately to the west,
which is about even with the line
of the library steps to the east.
Tentative approval also was giv
en by the zoning body to a re
quested change from class II resi
dential to class III business zone
for property at the southwest
corner of Center and 12th streets
formerly occupied by the Little
Lady's store.
A decision was deferred a
month for further study on a pro
nosal to establish class IV unre-
; stricted zoning for property of W.
R. Grasle at the nortnwesx corner

FRANKFFTJRT, Germany, Jan.
lMiTVThe U. S. army Monday

drew howl of protest from sol
diers whom the order hit.
Officially the army was silent
about its reasons. Officers and
chaplains, however, said the ac
tion would protect youthful draft
ees due in Germany soon.
