fields, as welL His etchings ranked
him among foremost artists of the
day, and he was also a composer
of note. : i "
Barrymore was the recipient of
many honors, including the Speech
Arts Medal, which he received in
1938. Each year for a decade he
broadcast the role of Scrooge in
"A Christmas Carol." He also pub

was beset by many injuries. Twice
he suffered hip fractures. He
walked . with crutches for a long
time and he had been I a .wheel

Two Petitions
On Penal Site
Gain Signers
(Story also on page 1, section 1.)
The State Board of Control will
receive a petition today in which
about 200 persons argue that an
intermediate penal institution on
the Keppinger farm site near Ger
vais would be a hazard to the
safety of the area.
Later in the week, ifs schedul
ed to receive another petition in
which 200 different persons say
they'd be delighted to have the
state institution in their neigh
borhood. : The disagreement, latest of sev
eral to center on the state re
formatory since it was approved
two years ago, has been building
up since September, when an un
official meeting in Gervais result
ed in a majority of the partici
pants agreeing that the reforma
tory would have a beneficial' ef
fect on business in the commu
nity. I I
Farmers Opposed
Farmers whose property Is lo
cated near the proposed site have
since opposed the institution "on
the ground that prisoners could
easily escape onto, their land
through brushy and swampy
areas. I
Perry Buren, attorney for the
group opposing the reformatory,
said Monday that the owners of
60 per cent of the acreage around
the proposed site have signed
petitions asking the state to locate
the institution elsewhere.
A leader of the group favoring
the reformatory, Emil Ronner,
argued that many farmers have
signed petitions asking the board
to locate the reformatory on the
Gervais site; : .v
Residence Cited '
Of 231 signers, be said, only 81
are residents of. Gervais. The rest
live in rural areas near the com
munity, he said.
Ronner, a member of toe city
council, said his activity with the
citizen's committee favoring the
reformatory was completely un
official and that be was not acting
as si representative of the city gov
ernment Among the arguments Advanced
in favor of bringing the reforma
tory.1 into the Gervais area are
claims that visitors and employes
would become customers of Ger
vais stores and; that home-building
by employes would increase prop
erty values. ,
Escapes Feared
Opponents of the reformatory
argue that it would be easy for
inmates to escape from the site
and say the institution would re
sult in property values failing. ,
la their petition filed Monday,
the opponents requested a bearing
to present their arguments before
the Board of Control.
The proposed site would take In
the A. W. Kippinger farm and
three amaUer adjoining farms in
an area near the intersection of
the Pacific Highway and the
Gervais-ML Angel highway. Re
ported total price for the property
is $174,000.

Spliton Indian
Burial Issue I
WASHINGTON V-The Supreme
Court divided i 4-4 Monday,! on
whether a cemetery may be sued
for damages for refusing burial to
an American Indian killed in Ar
my service in Korea. , ; f
The tie vote upheld a decision of
the Iowa Supreme Court that Mrs.
Evelyn Rice, white; widow of ,Sgt.
John Rice, had no right to sue the
Sioux City Memorial Park Ceme
tery for $180,000. 1
After graveside ! services, the
cemetery notified Mrs. Rice that
her husband's body would not be
lowered into the grave. Burial was
refused on the ground the widow
had signed a contract which' re
stricted use of the cemetery to
Caucasians. I 1
The case atUacted widespread
attention and former President
Truman invited the! widow to send
the body to Arlington National
Cemetery, where lie many of thei
nation's heroes. Full military hon
ors accompanied the Arlington bur
ial of Sgt Rice. I i
The tie vote in; the Supreme
Court was made possible by the
death of Justice Robert H. Jack
son, which reduced the court's
membership from 9 to 8. It was
not announced how the eight! jus
tices voted individually.
Mrs. Rsce has 25 days in which
to ask for reconsideration. It is
conceivable that by that time1; the
senate may have confirmed Presi
dent Eisenhower s i nomination of
John Marshall Harlan. i
