14 The Bend Bulletin,
Portlpnd's Squabble
The good people of Portland seem to have KotU-n
themselves into an awful predicament, one perhaps the
people f Central Oregon can help them get out of.
The predicament is the lack of agreement over the lo
cation of the proposed Portland exposition center, which
was approved by the voters of the city some time ago.
Since that approval a site commission has been try
ing to decide where the center should be located. The
members of the commission studied long and hard, then
hired some other people to help them do some more study
ing. A few 'weeks ago the commission came up with its
answer, recommending a location at Delta Park. Then the
fireworks started.
Some members of the city commission did not like
the proposed location. Some big downtown merchants
are reported not too favorable, either. A big hassle has
started over the whole thing.
Now, here's the way out for the people of Portland :
The main reason for the construction of the new
center is to have adequate housing for the Pacific In
ternational Livestock Exposition, which is inadequately
housed at the present time. Lots of people from Central
and Eastern Oregon go to the show now, and presumably
more would be on fiaiid when the gates opened in a set
of better quarters.
Visitors to this show spend about $7,000,000 (that's
right, seven million dollars) in Portland during the run
of the show in Portland each
goes to retail establishments,
lodirinir and entertainment.
Now from the looks of
' in Portland who don't care
their town or not. They'd rather have more downtown
parking space.
". We hereby invite the PI to move to Bend next year.
The merchants hero would welcome another big
chunk of retail sales (at least we haven't found any who
wouldn't) and you could bet your bottom dollar we would
be able to find a location for it without a hock of a lot
of fighting about it.
Then the people from this section of the state, who
furnish much of the stock

Prinevie-Madras Fight
One of the big problems of high school athletic ad
ministrators and game officials was pointed up the other
day when Madras severed alhlelic relations with the
Crook County High School of Prineville following char
ges of dirty play levelled after the game between the two
schools this football season.
The problem is how to let a game run so that the
two teams can each play good, hard football without
slipping over the bonier into dirty football which can
result in serious and permanent injury to players.
This is not meant as an indictment of the Prine
ville football team, far from it
Personal observation of a number of lb,.;.- .r,.,,,,.. ;
this and earlier seasons, sometimes at very close quart
ers, and discussions with the Prineville coaching staff
over the past three seasons, have convinced us that the
team is not each..,! to play dirty football at all. Wo did
not see the disputed game, but have seen others, invol
ving other teams, get "ou of hand."
Perhaps this is what happened recentlv. If so it is
to" bad it had to end what had previously been a fine
athletic rivalry.

Now that the much-sung song
about Davy Crockett looms large
among the young as the great
American frontier tune, the li

sets the record straight.
According to the familiar ballad,
Davy Crockett was "born on
mountain top in Tennessee." In
the meantime, a North Carolina
congressman comes forth with the
statement that he was Dorn in
North Carolina. Both the ballal
and the congressman are wrong,
and vou can prove it by reference
the Century Cyclopedia oi
Names. According to the booK,
Crockett was born August 17, 1786.
in a town that is now Limestone,
Greene County. Tennessee. But at
the time of Crockett's birth, it was
in the little rememberod "State of
Franklin."
In the vear 1784. the citizens of
the western part of North Caro
lina, an area which now Includes

May.
A week ago the 54-year-old actor,

top matinee idols, denied that his
wife was pregnant. Mrs. Gable,

She has a son Adolph, 5, and a
daughter, Joan. 4. by her third

Mrs. Gallic said she had hoped
to keep her pregnancy secret for
a while but the actor "spilled it
to everybody" at a party Saturday
night.
"He's certain it'll be a boy,"
she said.

New Technique
In Surgery Told
CHAMPAIGN, 111. (UP) Scien
tists today revealed a new method
of brain surgery which uses ultra
frequency -sound waves.
The scientists said the new meth
od can be used with pinpoint ac
curacy to destroy diseased tissue
without the damage to surround
ing tissue which results from
cutting surgery.
They hoped the new method
might also be used as a weapon
against cancer.
The device utilizes sound wave
generated by a quartz crystal ex
cited by electricity, at a frequency
of one million cycles a second ar
beyond the range of the human
ear.
Four of these ultra - frequen :y
waves are beamed at the brain
from different angles lo converge
at the point where the diseased
tissue is to be killed. The tissue is
destroyed without injuring sur
rounding brain areas through
which the waves have traveled.
The device was developed by a
team of two scientists who devoted
five years to the project at Uie
University of Illinois at a cost cf
550,000.
The only cutting surgery neces- 9
sary is the. removal of a portion of
the skull through which the sound
waves are to enter.
The sound waves are so intense '
that they must be transmitted
through a liquid, which is capihle
of carrying a much more intense
sound than a gas, like the nir. .
The sound conductor is sterile
salt water contained, in a pan
which is held to the scalp by a
water-tight wire tourniquet.
The specialiy-cut quartz crystal
emits sound when triggered by
electricity much in the . same wiy
as a gong when struck by hammer.
Professor William J. Fry. phy
sicist who directed the projc .1,
said it has been proven effective
in experiments on 250 cats and
monkeys and is now ready lor
use on humans.
"Arrangements are being nu'de
for its use on humans in a huspi':tl
setup." Fry said. "It should he a
major development in neuro -surgery.
