Then, the article said. Cook

pears from Newbry's orchard
Newbry and Cook were associated
in the orchard and packing firm
called Brookhurst, Inc., along with
Newbry's son, LyndaL the Journal
said.
Cook was quoted as saying he
could have used his own pears to
fill the 1951 prison contract, but
bought some from Newbry be
cause "I felt a sort of moral ob
ligation to Earl since I'd handled
his pears to fill out my shipments
the two years before.
Not Sold Directly -
In a statement to the Associated
Press, Newbry said that although
some of his pears, sold to other
dealers, had ultimately reached
the prison, "neither I nor my firm

26, and Robert Krai, 18, as he
opened the door to a county jail
cell block Tuesday night. H
Britton said Brandon, awaiting
return to McNeil Island : federal
prison, slugged the jailer with his
fist, then the two beat Kettenberg
about the head with a blackjack
made from a sock filled with bars
of soap. " -
They toos the jail keys and un
locked the outer doors to . escape.
About two hours later a woman
telephoned the sheriffs office that

wanted to surrender. It was Bran

Mel Lambert Plays Role in
Indian Movie at Pendleton
- "It's in his blood, says Rex Lambert, Salem, of his son, Mel. who
is taking part in a movie being made at Pendleton.
I used to be a song and dance man myself and I guess he's in
herited an interest in show business," said Lambert. MeL who is known
on the West Coast for his work as a rodeo and horse show announcer
had, according to his father, turned down offers of work from the
movie colony before, because he
didn't like to be tied down. He
has a contract with Christensen
Brothers of Eugene to announce
rodeos through Idaho, California,
Washington and Oregon.
At one time, said Rex Lambert,
his son took a more active part in
the shows. He rode the "broncs."
But his father persuaded him to
try "a safer side" of the business.
Mel, who works, between rodeos
at Stan Baker Motor Co., first
took an interest in riding when his
father worked for the government
on the Klamath Indian reserva
tion.
- The Indians, said Lambert, used
to pay Mel and hi friends to ride
their unbroken steers. The boys
also learned trick riding and fancy
roping on the reservation and
eventually they carried their les
sons into professional work.
Mel, however, "took naturally"
to the broadcasting side of the
show. Entirely self-taught, Mel
developed his trade, with a few
theatrical asides from bis father,
to the place where movie "people.
who heard him work in California,
offered him jobs.
The first part he has tried, how
ever, is that of a prospector in the
Pendleton film, "Sioux Uprising.
According to his father, "the paint
in his blood is leaking a little bit;
he says he likes it a lot; wouldn't
be surprised If he went to Holly
wood from here.

Portland Firms
To Pay Taxes
Two Portland firms, Holman

pay property taxes on municipal
terminal No. 2 j for .the fiscal year
1948-49 aggregating $12,130. the
. State Supreme -Court held Wednes
day.; , I ' " .:
Pope and Talbot Company leased
the terminal from the city and
then subleased, it to Wilhelm and
Holman, . )
The majority opinion affirmed
Cirjbuit Judge Ralph V". Holman.
Judge Hall !S. - Lusk said the
theory behiixl the legislation, it
may be reasonably assumed, is
that jjublicly . owned property
should pay its share of the cost
of government when in the hands
of a private person and devoted
to private use.
The suit was 'brought by the
warehouse firms few a declaratory
Judgment construing the 1947 law.
The high court also affirmed Cir
cuit Judge Rlaccormac . Snow,
Multnomah County, in a suit . of
Uarianne Moriet Smiley vs G. C.
-Ackerman et al. involving cancel
lation of a conveyance and for an
accounting of the operation of the
real property of the Russell
apartments in Portland.
The. suit was dismissed by the
circuit , court ana; plain tin ap
pealed. ' basing hercl im entirely
upon' mental mpetency and
the entire record was devoted "to
testimony touching upon that sub
ject. ' '
Justice Walter Tooze, in his opin
ion, said the trial judge apparently
was impressed as are we, that
plaintiffs actual " memory as to
events was much better. than she
pretended. She made altogether a
too perte-t case lor erseii.
Decree of Circuit Court Judge
Charles H. Combs, Lake County,
was reversed in the suit of Pichard
Newman, appellant, vs Herbert
Stover, executor, in an opiaion
written by Justice Harold Warner.
Plaintiff . Newman was success
ful on appeal in breaking the pur
ported last will of his deceased
mother, Merica Newman. Five
brothers and one sister opposed
the contest.
"From consideration of tht en
tire record in this proceeding it
clearly appears that a case of un
