PAGE TWELVE Pastor Struck On Nose, Plans $10,000 Lawsuit Kansas City, Mo., June 17 til A Presbyterian minister who turned the other cheek when a Methodist eleryman popped him on the nose, planned to iilc a $10,000 suit today against the rival gentleman of the cloth. The Rev. Ellis J. Hough, 49, pastor of the Third Presbyterian cliurch here, said tne ftev. Ken neth J. Brassier, 42, of Fairfax, Mo., broke his nose. Hough and Bressler told sub stantially the same story about what happened when they squab bled in Bressler's home over who should perform a wedding at Fair fax last Sunday. The bride and groom waited pa tiently while the one-punch fight occurred.' They finally were mar ried by a third minister, the Rev. Harold M.- Parker Jr., a Presby terian called in bv Hough. Fine Paid v Bressler has already paid off ; a fine of $25 and costs of $8.05 on assault chargesi brought In a ma gistrate court by Hough. But Hough figured he still had a score to settle .with Bressler. He wants $10,000 on grounds of personal Injury. "He hit rne right on the nose," Hough said. "It was most em barrassing and regrettable. I asked him to make a public apol ogy and he refused. So I'm going to sue." He said he was glad he turned the other cheek. "I don't believe in fighting," he said. "I'm glad I didn't strike back." Threw "Sunday Punch" Bressler said he threw his "Sun day punch" at Hough in a "fit of temper." The argument started because the bridegroom, James Schoen mann of Tarkio, Mo., wanted Hough, a former neighbor, to marry him to Wllma Wright of Fairfax. The bride, however, wanted to be married In the Meth odist church at Fairfax. So Hough wrote Bressler ask ing permission to marry the cou ple in the latter's church. "I received a rather vitupera tive reply," Hough said. "Bress ler didn't like the idea at all. But he suggested that when I arrived in Fairfax that I come to his house to see him. "I did and the argument follow ed. He wanted his letter back. I refused to give it to him. "As I was putting it back Into my shirt pocket, he struck me. "He took me by surprise and I was staggered. My glasses fell off and were broken." Bressler said he got mad be cause Hough had threatened to show the letter to his bishop. "I wanted it back," he said. "I got mad a fit of temper just like anybody can got once In a while and I struck him . . . just once." , PILOTS LUCKY Corpus Christ!, Tex., June 17 UHTwo lucky F4-U Corsair pi lots had only minor scratches and sore muscles to show today as souvenirs of a collision In flight.

'IPi This may sound like a fairy tale, but Mrs. Andrew zavada says quadruplets mean four of everything but trou ble. Mrs. Zavada changes 500 dia pers a week on her quartet of 15-month-old youngsters, and she works from e a.m. to mldnlgnt, but she's less ruffled about her job than the average mother of one. It's not hard," she smiled, "if you have a system. And It helps when the babies are as good as mine." Doctors said the birth of the Zavada quadruplets was one in 600,000 when they were born last year in February, but the mother says they're at least four in a mil lion. John Michael and his three sisters sleep much of the time. They wait patiently for their turns at being fed, bathed and changed. They eat almost everything that is poked into their mouths, and they treat visitors to smiles and friendly gestures. All that co-operation makes It Trash Fish Cut Down in Lakes ' Trash fish . control for -1949 is now well under way In Oregon's Cascade lakes, with the first work centering at Diamond lake, ac cording to information from the state game commission office In Portland. The eradication work will continue until around Octo ber 1. The control project was started at Diamond lake on June 1, and by June 9 it was estimated that seven million roach had been kill ed. In the past three years, some 20 million of these trash fish have been poisoned but, due to their high rate of reproduction, it is thought that roach are still at a dangerous population level in the lake. Many of the lakes of Oregon have had rough fish introduced into them, quite possibly by un thinking anglers who brought them to be used as live bait," states the announcement from the game department. This practice, it Is stressed, is prohibited by law, but was extensive in the past. The trash fish compete with game fish for available food in the lakes. A number of years ago South Twin lake was poisoned and later was restocked. South Twin again Is open to angling. Roach Infestation at East and Paulina lake also is feared to he serious. KIKE DAMAGE $20,W10 McNary, Ore.. June 17 Ul'i- Two small frame warehouse buildings on the McNary dam site were wiped out In a flash fire yester day. Damage was estimated at $20, 000.

A practical nurse comes to help with the famous quartet on six days and Mrs. Zavada's mother comes two days a week to help with the chores, and it's still a long day for the mother. The quads get up at 8 a.m., aft er their mother has been getting the father and their six-year-old brother off for the day. First on the schedule is milk all around, then baths and breakfast at about 10 o'clock. They go to bed around noon, when a second bottle makes its appearance, and they play un til about two. A meal of strained vegetable, meat and fruit is next on the schedule. They get two more bottles between that time and 8 o'clock, when they hit the hay for the night. Other Things to Do Between times, Mrs. Zavada keeps her house shining, cooks and does a washing every day. A diaper service handles that end of the wash, but there's still plenty to do. The quads wear at least one outfit and a different nightgown every day. Besides that, the cribs must be changed, too. Fortunately, the toddlers have been in good health. One scare came when Anna Mary spent five days in Latrobe hospital with bronchial pneumonia. She came home on Mothers day a fine present, Mrs. Zavada said. Johnny is the heaviest nt 20 pounds, and he has 10 teeth. The girls average 16 pounds and only have one or two teeth apiece. Mrs. Zavada is the only one who can tell her famed offspring apart without fail. But she still puts tiny identification bracelets around their ankles. Pickets Placed .

Henry Gellert, president of the Seattle Gas company, says there's no longer any question about import tation of natural gas to the Pa cific northwest. Addressing a meeting of the Bonneville regional advisory coun cil yesterday, Gellert said Cana dian natural gas would be avail able for home owners and indus tries by 1951 if competing pipe line companies iron out differ ences soon. "By 1953, in any event, we should have natural gas," he said. He said new industries would be attracted to the northwest with the availability of low cost natural gas and his company ex pects to expand business more than 700 per cent within five years after gas reaches this area. Not Competitive But Bernard Goldhammer, Bon neville power administration economist, said influx of new businesses still will depend on in creased electrical power. He said the two fuels were only some what" competitive, and more complementary. Five specific industries expect ed to locate new plants in th northwest within 10 years include alumina, viscose rayon and cel lophane, caustic soda, glass con tainer and cement. Goldhammer pointed out these industries would consume not only six billion cubic feet of bas, but 35,000 kilowatt hours of electrical power. "With the existing power short age, it may be difficult to get the best use of natural as," he said, UL-cuuse imuiMiitrs cuiiuui ue in duced to use gas unless they also can get electrical energy .... Power manager at Bonneville Dr. W. A. Dittmer predicted the area will have enough electrical energy by 1958 to supply indus tries using chiefly natural gas. "The next four or five years, how ever, will be critical." Registry Testing Work Completed Columbus, O., June 17 The herd of registered Jersey cattle owned by- Ruby Steiwer Lamb, Bend, Ore., is announced by the American Jersey Cattle club from its headquarters in Columbus, O., as having completed a year's work in official herd improve ment registry testing with an av erage production ot 9,215 pounds milk and 509 pounds butterfat per cow. The herd contained an av erage of 14 milking cows during the year. All tests on this herd were con ducted by Oregon State college and verified by the American Jer sey Cattle club. In accomplishing this produc tion the Lamb herd has joined the select group of Jersey herds in which the cows have produced more than two times the amount of butterfat obtained from the average dairy cow in the United States. Aerial Warfare On Grasshopper Plague Continues Uy United Pros) Airplanes loaded with poison bombs struck out again today at hordes of young grasshoppers threatening to wipe out a large share of the nation's corn and wheat crops, while rains swept toward New York, promising an end to a record drouth. An armada of 26 planes, most of them blown by ex-combat pi lots, dropped bran laced with the chemical 2-4-D on thousands of acres of Wyoming fields. They hope to kill the young in sects before they sprout wings and invade the rich fields of the Dakotas, Nebraska, Iowa and Kansas. Some of the fields in the 1,030,- 000-acre area set for the bomb ings contain as many as 1,500 'hoppers per square yard the highest concentration ever re corded. Farmers battled insects on two other fronts. In South Dakota there was a "green bug" plague. In Mississippi, crop experts fear ed the boll weevil might be ready to sweep through the cotton crop. Dakota Too Wet The South Dakotans said they would welcome a little of New York's dry weather. They be lieved lack of moisture would halt development of the bugs. The predicted showers would end New York's drouth at its 22nd day. The longest previous-May-June drouth on record lasted 17 days. That was in 1887. New York farm agents said that unless heavy rains arrived soon, the state's multi-million dollar fruit and vegetable crop would be burned up. The dry spell also posed a threat of forest fires. Forests in the northwest were critically dry and rangers said that spot fires accompanied by strong winds could "wreak havoc" to the timber.
