Newspaper Page TextUniv. of Oregon Library EUGENE, OREGON C Mays' Blow scores Hank Aaron from first PITTSBURGH (UP1) - Willie Mays tripled to score Hank Aaron with the winning run, climaxing a two-run eighth inning rally which gave the National League a 5-4 victory over the American League in the 26th annual All-Star Game today. The underdog American leagu ers had scored three runs in the top of the eighth to take the lead, 4-3, just before the roof caved in on Whitey Ford, the New York Yankees southpaw. Taking over in the bottom of the eighth, Ford, the fourth pitch er used by Manager Casey Stengel of the American League, yielded a single to Ken Boyer, pinch-hitting for winning pitcher Johnny Antonelli. Dick Groat sacrificed Boyer to second and Hank Aaron then singled to score Boyer with the tying ran. Mays, who had gone hitless in three previous times at bat, rifled a fast ball to deep right center, over center fielder Harvey Kuenu's glove, and Aaron raced home with the run that gave the 11-10 National League favorites' the triumph. It broke a two game American League winning streak in this mid summer game and was the Nat ional League's 11th victory against 15 defeats in All-Star competition. The American Leaguers made a bid in the top of the ninth against Don Elston, Chicago Cubs relief ace. Elston retired the first two hitters but Nellie Fox then singled after missing a home run by two feet down the right field line. Fox went to second on a wild pitch. Kuenn rifled one out of the park down the left field line, but it was foul by 12 feet Kuenn worked the count to three and two and then popped to third baseman Boyer to close it out Gus Triandos, whom Stengel had refused to let hit in the clutch last year, had douBled with the bases loaded in the eighth, send ing the Americans into a 4-3 lead.

LONDON (UP1) Soviet scien tists today hailed the rocket flight of two dogs and a rabbit as proof that man will soon be flying through space. One said that day will "not be far off." Western scientists saw it as proof the Russians are working desperately to beat the United States into space and said there was a chance the Russians might succeed this year. They based their predictions on the fact the Soviet already has two major space "firsts" the RAY BENNETT New Bend district ranger Bend district ranger arrives Ray Bennett, transferred here from Steamboat Springs, Colo., is the new ranger in charge of the Bend district of the Deschutes National Forest. He fills the va cancy created when E. J. Parker, long in charge of the district, was named leader of the Deschutes recreation survey project Although Bennett comes to the Bend district from Colorado, he is a native of Oregon, having been born in Condon, and is a graduate from Oregon State College with the class of 1938. He majoocd in forestry. For the-past eight years, Ben nett served as ranger in charge of the Hahns Peak district of the Routt National Forest in Colo rado. He has been engaged in Forest Service work for 21 years. On a house-seeking project, Ben nett was accompanied to Bend by his wife. Their four children Janice 12; Cindy. 8: Jill, 7. and Terry, 4, are visiting in Condon with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Bennett. They will join their parents here later. Bennett's headquarters are at the district rangers' offices, at Second and Davis Avenue in Bend. He is looking forward to the full exercise of one of his particular hobbies, skiing, in the Bend area. Bachelor Butte, newly-developed ski area, is in his district and will be under his supervision. Another of Bennett's likes is horseback riding. He had lo do much of this while on duty as a ranger in the Rockies. Restaurant hit by $15,000 fire PORTLAND (UPI) An early morning fire at the Corral drive in restaurant in Portland caused an estimated $15,000 damage to the building and equipment The fire, of undetermined origin, required extra equipment to be brought under control, the fire bureau said. Children blamed for fires in old Colorado Hotel Children playing with matches were blamed by firemen for a series of fires late Monday after noon in (he old Colorado Hotel, 642 Colorado Avenue at the corner of Bond Street Quick action by Garry Joanis and other neighbors prevented a full-scale fire, and the building suffered little damage, according to Fire Chief Vern Carlon. Several children and their parents are be ing questioned, he said. Fire started in curtains and a wastcpapor basket in one of the upstairs rooms. Firemen found about four other small piles of debris that had been lighted, but smouldered and went out An old calendar and old receipts were Sil Ten Cents first satellite and the first missile to leave the earth's gravitational field and become a planetoid around the sun. They also were impressed by the weight of the latest Soviet rocket payload which carried the rabbits and dogs slightly more than two tons, or perhaps eight times the weight of the American rocket's payload which took the monkeys Able and Baker on a 1,500-mile flight over the Atlantic in May. Exact weight of the U.S. vehicle has not been announced. Tahoe blaze 80 per cent under control SIERRAVILLE. Calif. (UPD Slowed down but still not beaten, California's worst forest fire of the season raged into its sixth day today leaving more than 10.000 acres of prime timber in Tahoe National Forest charred in its wake. Forest service officers said the blaze was 80 per cent under control after winds died down Monday night, but almost' 2,000 weary fire fighters along a 20 mile front battled against time as a late weather report forecast strong winds for today. "If the winds stay down we have a good chance of containing the fire today," said Ernest Draves, forest service spokesman. Several times the flames were reported contained, but strong winds, at times clocked at nearly 50 miles an hour, always sprang up to send the flames leaping across the control lines. For five days the fire, started by a 6-year-old boy playing with matches, has been a constant threat to the mountain village of Loyalton, two miles away. The town's 1,000 residents, al though with no formal evacuation plans, have been alerted constant ly. Volunteers have extinguished ashes and embers blown into the town by strong winds. New Mountain Blazes Meanwhile, in other mountain areas, new blazes were reported: In Plumas National Forest, about nine miles west of Portola, strong winds fed a fire that had burned about 100 acres by early Monday evening and was reported "boiling up real nasty." An esti mated 500 men. working with bull dozers, were battling the blaze that jumped Feather River at one point. In Eldorado National Forest, about a mile east of Pollock Pines on U. S. Highway 50, a crew brought under control a fire that Monday caused $140,000 damage to timber and watershed. A state firefighter, Joe Mauricia. suffered a skull fracture when struck by a falling rock. He was reported out of danger last night. , A fourth blaze (lamed up with in a few hundred yards of the Berkeley Municipal Summer Camp at Echo Summit Monday, but was brought under control after burn ing six acres. IN LINE OF DUTY TORQUAY. England UPI) A squad of policemen strode onto the crowded beach at this seaside resort Monday and began taking off their uniforms. Stripped to their bathing trunks, the police men went for a swim. One ex plained cryptically to a question ing sunhather: "We were looking for stolen property on the tea bed." among the materials used for fuel, firemen said. A can of light er fluid, empty when found, was near one of the piles of rubbish. Neighbors who spotted thfc fire went into the building and re moved the burning curtains and the Vastebasket, about the same time that the fire was reported. The two-story building is owned by Don Clause, a Lakeview bus iness man. For many years. It was used as a boarding house, and tenants were mostly employes at the nearby sawmill of Brooks Scanlon. Inc. The fire department answered the alarm with three pieces of equipment and stood by until the lituntion was under control. 8th END CENTRAL OREGON'S Bend, Deschutes County, Oregon, Tuesday, July 7, 1959 The American target date for the first manned space flight is the autumn of I960. British and other Western scientists think the Russians may make their bid this year. One date often mentioned is the end of August when the 10th In ternational Astronautical Congress meets in London. The Russians seem to time their space shots to coincide with such international meetings. They announced their satellite plans at the 155 congress in Copenhagen, put their Sputnik into orbit the day the 1957 congress opened in Barcelona and fired the first dogs into space during last year's Am sterdam congress. Monday's announcement coin cided with the opening in Moscow of the international cosmic ray conference. Soviet scientist Grigory Khrush chov, a corresponding member of the U.S.S.R. Academy of Science, spoke on Moscow Radio on the ramifications of the latest Soviet space shot announced Monday. The Russians said two dogs and a rabbit had been fired last Thursday to a "great height" in a single-stage rocket and had re turned safely. "It was an important step in solving the problem of space flight by man." Khrushchov said. "It won't be long before we see people flying into space. Damage caused by 'twister' Another miniature "t w I s t e r" bored its way through the Des chutes country early Monday after noon with the Richards Cashway Lumber Co. plant just north of Bend as its target The powerful whirlwind struck the plant about 1:20, wrenched three big sliding doors from their moorings, broke one in two and picked up light pieces of lumber. Some of the debris collected by the little twister as it slashed out of the southwest was scattered over U. S. Highway 97 adjacent to the state highway department of fice, across from the lumber plant The twisting wind kicked up a big cloud of dust in the area. This past month a more power fid gyrating wind struck the new trailer plant near the north city limits of Bend and demolished a shed that had just been completed. "Dust devils," as the gyrating winds are generally called, are quite common in Central Oregon in the summer months, but sel dom in the past have they caused any damage. The damage to the trailer plant in June was the most extensive known in this region. Move reported to change zone for mortuary A petition for approval of a zone change to allow a mortuary in a residential area was expected to be in circulation this afternoon. City Manager Walter Thompson said Bill Mayer, who wishes to sell property to the mortuary, re quested that the petition be drawn. It would provide for an R-4 zone, which permits residences and one other use, in this case a mortuary. Fifty per cent or more of the property owners in the area and 300 feet from the boundaries must sign the petition if it is to be con sidered by the City Commission. The area in question includes two blocks across from the high school, bounded on the south by Alden Avenue, on the east by E. Sixth Street, on the north by Clay Avenue and on the west by E. Fifth Street The City Commission last week turned down a proposed ordinance which would permit the rezoning. Several property ownen voiced disapproval of the zone change, contending that the mortuary would add too much traffic to that already caused by cars at the high school.

DAILY NEWSPAPER YULE TREE ON STUMP A Christmas tree growing on a stump where two trees have already been harvested is shown here on Tree Farm lands of Broolts-Scanlon, Inc. Tom Links, mm. -pany forester, points at lower left to stump where original tree was cut, at upper right to where second tree was harvest ed. Growth of third tree is now well underway. Yule trees on crop bash planned by Brooks-Scanlon In a move which may foretell a new trend among industrial tree farmers, a Bend forest indust- ry that has long practiced forest managemcnt to grow timber as a crop is now turning its attention toward Christmas tree farming. Brooks-Scanlon, Inc., Is setting aside 5,000 acres -of Tree Farm lands on which to raise white fir Christmas trees on a crop basis along with bigger timber trees al - ready In the area. The company is one of the first industrial timber firms in the region to attempt to grow timber trees and Christmas trees on the same land on a man agement basis. I The area selected, in the Tri angle Hill country northwest of Bend is not a good pine site. since a heavy mistletoe infesta- j tion there dooms most ponderosa pines before they reach timber size. It is well adapted, however. to white fir, which is not affected by this species of mistletoe. In 1$ Years "Starting from the wild state, we j figure we can put the area under management into full Christmas j tree production in 15 years," says Tom Links, company forester. "We would begin to harvest our first 1 managed crop in two years." Links said Christmas tree pro-, duel ion will be multiplied by "stump culture," a forestry mcth-! od of utilizing the already-dcvel- oped root system of the first tree . harvested to grow a second or even a third additional tree on the same stump.

This would provide for a min imum annual harvest of 20 trees an acre. Foresters look for qualities In Christmas trees which are almost the opposite of those they seek in timber trees. In the former, they want many branches and slow growth to keep distances between annual whorls of branches small. In timber trees, they want the fewest branches and the fastest growth possible. Links said managment plans for Christmas trees also call for scar ifying fast-growing trees that is, slashing the bark on one side to slow growth down and make the tree fill out and become bush ier. Egan receives resources post PORTLAND (UPI) Gov. Wil liam Egan of Alaska was named Monday as chairman of an Alaska subcommittee on Democratic na tural resources policy. The appointment was announc cd here by C. Girard Davidson, Democratic National Committee man for Oregon and an ex-assist- ; ant Secretary of the Interior. He ! is chairman of a committee draw- ! ing up a natural resources pro- j gram for the 13 Western states to , be presented to the Democratic . convention platform committee next year. Mrs. Lcisa Branson of Sedona, Ariz., Democratic National Com mitteewoman, was named earlier as chairman of the water re sources subcommittee. Other sub committeees to be activated later include energy minerals, pollution. public lands and conservation and resources. "We will not only have recom mended platform planks," David son said. We will have a pro gram ready to go ahead if the Democrats win the election. BELCHER ACQUITTED Richard Lee Belcher, 1622 Aw- vi -i i ij unnjuvi, niaigw n 1 filed July 1 ETIN Eight Pages Tear gas use to foil four in escape try MONROE, Wash. (UPI I -Two ticklish minutes punctuated with tear gas today ended a fantastic escape plot by four convicts and freed 38 hostages they had threat ened to mutilate or murder. After nearly 14 hours of swag gering arrogance in the visitors room at the State Reformatory here, the rebels were back behind bars. And 24 civilian visitors, In cluding 18 women and children walked to safety. A well-placed pair of tear gas cartridges did the job after a bit of trickery conspired by Dr. Gar rett Heyns, director of state in stitutions, and Reformatory Super intendent Ernest Timpani, set up the play. Timpani announced shortly he- fore 4 a.m. p.s.t. the convicts had sent out word that "they're going to start throwing out bodies at six o'clock." "We're going in after them a! four o'clock." The four convict were baited to the window in the visitors' j room door with the announcement Heyns, who was actually at the state capitol in Olympla, wanted to talk to them. "As soon as they came to the window, a guard let them have it with tear gas. There was no one hurt." . Two of the guards being held hostage, U. Rudolph B. Maley and Joseph Harris, grabbed two of the rebel convicts as the gas exploded and wrestled them to the floor. It was all over second later as more officers stormed into the room. The convicts had two butcher knivea and two meat forks for weapons. They never had a chance to use them. The women, eyes streaked with tears from effects of the gas, walked out of the room, most of them carrying children. The guards followed. Hugh J. DcWalt, 38, was nearly overcome and had to be assisted by Harris and Ma ley. Revived a short time later. Guard DeWalt said he wasn't sure "we had only two hours to live."

L. nousmg um draws veto by President WASHINGTON (UPI) Presi dent Eisenhower vetoed the Dem ocratic housing bill today. He said its spending provisions are exces sive and would do more damage than good. In a message lo the Senate, the President called the bill "extrava gant" "Much of the spending it author izes Is unnecessary," he said, Ha objected particularly to spending authorizations which he said amounted to a minimum of $2, 200.000.000 as against his budget recommendations of (10 million dollars. The Democrats had put a $1, 375,400,000 price tag on their far reaching bill. After listing the defects In the measure, the President called on Congress to enact before adjourn ment a new housing bill along the lines of his recommendations of last January. There appeared to be no chance Congress would over-ride the veto. The bill passed the Senate 56-31 and the House 241-177. Both wera less than the two-third margin re quired in both chambers to enact vetoed legislation. The rejected bill would have ex panded federally subsidized public housing and launched new federal lending programs to build college classrooms and low-priced rental housing for elderly persons. Session draws county group Four Deschutes county resi dents attended the slate convention of United Spanish-American War Veterans and the auxiliary, last week at Newport In the group were Mrs. Florence Stout, Bend, president of Jay H. Upton auxil iary; Mrs. Etta Willington, now of Bend, who attended as a delegate from Scout Young auxiliary, Port land, and Mr. and Mrs. George Miller, Redmond. In an impressive memorial cere mony, tribute was paid to 37 vet erans and 18 auxiliary members of Oregon lost by death in the past year. Mrs. Natalie Williams of Port land, state auxiliary president, asked that auxiliary members meet for luncheon on Thursday of convention week each year. In keeping with the Oregon coast netting, favors were of seasheli, rocks and driftwood. Eugene was selected for the 1960 convention.
