Sucker Fishing
Offers Prizes
For Teenagers
COTTAGE GROVE Kids up

for fun and prizes for the next
three months and at the same
time help the fishing.
The Cottage Grove Eagles
lodge is sponsoring a derby
with prizes for the biggest trash
fish chubs and suckers. The
prizes, donated by seven local
merchants will be awarded the
last Wednesday of June, July
and August at 7:30 p.m. at the
armory according to A. W.
Thomas, secretary of the lodge.
A grand prize will be awarded
in August.
The fish will be judged by
length.
Besides providing fun for the
kids, Thomas says catching the
trash fish may benefit game
fishing, as suckers and chubs
are known killers of trout.

WASHINGTON (JP) Sen. Cor
don (R-Ore) said Friday a Senate
appropriations subcommittee has
approved appropriations totaling!
$73,123,400 for construction and
operation of Bonneville Power
Administration facilities in the
Pacific Northwest.
The figure is the same as that
previously approved by the House
in passing the Interior Depart
ment appropriation bill for the 12
months beginning July 1.
Cordon, a subcommittee mem
ber, told a reporter approval also
had been given to start construc
tion of the Kennewick division of
the Yakima, Wash., irrigation
project. The actual amount of the
funds for this work was not avail
able. The subcommittee approved a
total of $2,750,000 for access road
construction in the O&C'lands in
Oregon. All but $700,000 of the
amount is earmarked for road con
struction in connection with the
salvage of windthrown timber.
Rehabilitation of the Savage
Rapids Dam at Grants Pass, Ore.,
also came in for $700,000, Cordon
said.
Of these amounts, only that for
Bonneville was contained in the
House-approved bill. The others,
if approved by the Senate, still
must be acted on by the House.

Vida Man Found
Guilty of Assault
By MARVIN TIMS
Xetliter-Gillrd Stiff Writer
A Lane County circuit court iury took only 25 minutes
Friday afternoon to find Arden Louis Rhoads, 37, of Vida,
guilty of assault with intent to kill.
Court officials believe it is the first conviction on this
charge in the county in recent years. Under Oregon law the
conviction calls for a sentence of life imprisonment or one
to 20 years in the state penitentiary.
Rhoads, according to testimony, scuttled May in the

Editors' Duties
PALO ALTO, Calif. (TP)
Charles M. Sprague, publisher of
the Salem, Ore., Statesman and
former governor of Oregon, told
the California Newspaper Pub
lishers Assn. Friday night there
Is a crying need for better-written,
more informative, more in
teresting newspaper editorials.
Editorial writers, he said, should
avoid "Afghanastanism" writing
only on remote problems. Rather,
he said, they should not be afraid
of dealing with local "hot potatoes."
Sprague said the first essential
for an editor today is awareness
of his responsibilities.
"The editor," he said, "is in
midstream and ought to get into
the swim. He should not hesitate
to take on dragons abroad or the
crackpots at home."
Sprague said that readership
surveys have showed mat, un
fortunately, many editorial
columns get consiaeraoiy jess
readership than the sports pages.
He declared that this is partly the
fault of editorial writers who
should make their copy so in
teresting that readers would not
pass their pages by.
Lattimore Trip
Alerts Officials
WASHINGTON OP) Ae State
Department disclosed Friday night
it has alerted U. S. Customs
guards to halt any attempt by
Owen Lattimore to leave the
country.
The department said it issued
the order after receiving a tip
from an "official source" that
Lattimore planned a trip to Soviet
Russia or one of the Iron Curtain
countries. Officials of the depart
ment said they did not know
whether the tip was correct.
Lattimore, a Johns Hopkins
University professor, is a former
State Department consultant. He
has figured as the target of re
peated attacks by Sen. McCarthy
(R-Wis.)
Lattimore, who has vigorously
denied McCarthy's charges, told
newsmen in Baltimore he was
mystified by the latest furore. He
said he hasn't asked the State De
partment for a passport and has
no plans to go abroad.
Breaking a day-long silence, the
State Department finally confirm
ed that an order to halt Lattimore
if he should try to leave the
United States without the neces
sary travel visa was issued on
June 3.

She unlocked the car and we

over. I had the gun in my Belt

at the dashboard. She grabbed it
quickly with her left hand.
"Then she got on her knees on
the seat and swung her left leg
toward me. The gun went off un

Oh My God, I've been shot. Then
she asked me to take her to a
doctor."
Rhoads said he then Tan around

"I DIDN'T SAT I was going to
kill her ever. I was just going to
scare her, I guess. I didn't know
if she or I pulled the trigger dur
ing the scuffle. We both had our
hands on the gun."
Under cross-examination Rhoads
denied he ever said he would kill
her and take his own life.
"When I took her to the hospital
and placed her in a wheelchair,"
he recalled, "I said I was going
to leave. She said: 'Stay with me.
I love you. It was an accident.
You have nothing to fear.' "
In the morning sessions Miss
Stice testified she pinned the gun
and Rhoads' hand against the
car's roof with her left leg before
the shot was fired.
Rhoads denied this. He said the
shot was fired while the gun was

Desperate Fight

Fresh American and Filipino
infantry replacements beat
back the biggest Communist
attack of the year west or
Chorwon Saturday in a des
perate battle for control of
three strategic hills.
More than 400 Chinese were I
killed or wounded in the
fierce six-hour battle.
The 179th Regiment of the U.S.
45th Division and men of the
Philippine 19th Battalion combat
team absorbed the initial shock of
the 3,500-man red attack.
In the air, American Sabre jets
shot down one Communist Mig-15
jet fighter over the North Korean
capital of Pyongyang in a dog
fight with five of the Russian
built planes.
LT. GEN. JOHN W. (Iron Mike)
O'Daniel, commander of the U.S.
1st Army Corps, said the compar
atively green newcomers on the
western front met the mass Chi
nese attacks with the "cold steel"
of bayonets.
He said they were capable of
repelling "any Chinese offen
sive."
The American and Filipino foot
soldiers repulsed the hordes of
Chinese in the bloody battle
which marked the Reds 21st fu

strategic heights wrested from
them by the 45th Division 10 days

The Reds moved in behind a
heavy artillery barrage which

SCRAPPY U.S. soldiers climb

on the raiding Reds in hand-to-hand
combat with grenades and
bayonets. B-26 bombers came in
low over the battle area to bomb
Communist concentrations.
This main enemy attack, a
pincer movement designed to cut
off the hill positions, lasted four
hours, but the Reds jabbed back
in lighter probes for two more
hours.

PORTLAND (AP) Sen,
Richard B. Russell of Georgia,
here to confer with Demo
cratic party officials in his
campaign for the presidential
nomination, thinks talk about
a tax, cut now is "foolishness."
He told a press conference Fri
day that if he were President he
would not ask for a tax reduction
until at least 1954 when the pres
ent arms buildup is complete.
"This talk of cutting 40 billion
dollars or 15 per cent of the bud
get is foolishness," he said.
Rearmament, he said, is the
most important subject facing the
U.S. "If we had overwhelming
military might we would have an
honorable peace in Korea now,"
he said.
RUSSELL CRITICISED the
campaign of Gen. Dwight Eisen
hower who is seeking the Repub
lican presidential nomination. "It
won't go too good for him if he
keeps up this 40 billion dollar tax
cut talk or this business of saying,
as I'm told he did in Denver, that
there is no more danger from
Russia than from a pollywog
swimming down a muddy creek'."
Russell reaffirmed his opposi
tion to a proposed fair employ
ment practices plank in the Dem
ocratic platform. If it were adop
ted he would repudiate it, he told
reporters. But he added that he
thought a platform acceptable to
all candidates could be written
and adopted.
WHEN QUESTIONED about the
current steel strike Russell said:
"I would have invoked seizure
under the provision of the selec
tive service act of 1940 which
authorizes seizure of industries
necessary for the national defense
which failed or refused to meet
the defense requirements."
He concluded a talk before a
group of Democrats with this
statement:
"I approached this decision to
run with humility, but the more
I looked around and observed the
other candidates, the more my
humility ebbed away."
