Recent Oregon prisoner facing kidnap charge
IDAHO SPRINGS, Colo. (UPI)
A recent Oregon prisoner was
hold today on charges of kidnap
ing a state patrolman in the offi
cer's own patrol car.
Patrolman Ed Durham, 36, fi
nally escaped by swerving the car
from the road and jumping out
as the 'auto rolled 60 feet into
Clear Creek.
The accused kidnaper, Harry
Eugene Rupert, 37, was captured
shortly afterward at an abandon
ed boarding house nearby.
Authorities in Oregon said he
was freed Jan. 11. They said he
was first sentenced to the Oregon
state penitentiary in 1948 for as
sault with a dangerous weapon
and obtaining money under false
pretenses.
Durham said he was kidnaped
after stopping Rupert's pickup for
a traffic violation. He said the
driver lacked any driver's license
or registration.
Durham said as he searched
the vehicle, Rupert stepped out
with a gun and ordered, "Put up
your hands and don't move fast."
He said Rupert forced him into
the patrol car and told him to
start driving.
Durham said at one stop, Ru
pert ordered him from the car
and told him: "I don't like what
I'm going to do now, and I don't
want you to see my face any
longer. Keep your hands up and
turn around."
The patrolman refused, and
they kept on driving until Dur
ham wrecked the car and es
caped.
A passerby called officers, who
captured Rupert at the boarding
ncuse.

Mrs. Clifton Dunlap gave a re
port on the amaryllis, an easily
hybridized bulbous plant from the
tropics. She described its regular
tubular flowers on lone, thick
stocks, and its dark green strap
shaped leaves. After the stalk
starts, growth is very rapid.
The amaryllis should be shal-
lowly planted, with two-thirds of
the bulb above the soil. Flowers
are pink, red, white and striped.
Mrs. Fred Shepard reported on
the perennial aster, known as
Michaelmas daisy, which is the
largest family of asters, with 250
species, wild and cultivated, found
in America. They can be grown
in partial shade, but prefer sun
shine. The daisy-like flowers, in pink,
white, lavender and deep purple,
bloom in clusters in summer and
fall. Clumps can be divided in fall
or early spring, and should be
well fertilized in fall.

Supermarket business leans f o Hollywood
By Leroy Pope
UPI Staff Writer
NEW YORK (UPD-The super
market business appears to be go

the industry's chief drumbeater,
admitted today.
Wolff, whose advertising agen
cy, Co-ordinated, Inc., handles 18
large supermarket chain accounts,
said things have come to such
a pass that a supermarket cover
ing half a square block may be
merely colossal and nearly obso

submitted their resignations at
the regular Crook county school
board meeting Monday, during a
lengthy board session filled with
assorted problems.
Those resigning were Guy Dela

Browning and Lloyd Baker, high
school teachers; Lucy Jensen,
Ochoco school and Homer Ward,
Oooked River School. Delamar
ter and Baker both stated they
were going into business. Brown

Other teachers were accepted
by the board for the coming year.
A citizen's committee, compos
ed of Mrs. Paul Bishop, Dr. Evan
Jones, Miss Mary Howden and
Mrs. Jean Wilkinson, presented
the school board with a request
that the board consider the pos
sibility of joining with the city in
a joint recreation program. The
beard took the request under ad
visement for consideration at a
later date.
The school committee from the

The move would involve seven or
eight students.
After deliberation, the board
granted the request, beginning
with the coming school year, on a
trial basis. Lone Pine committee

their older pupils a better prep

permarket that costs $1 million to
open can become obsolete in sev
en years," Wolf said.
Moreover the huge emporium
carrying 10,000 or more items,
ranging from steaks and eggs to
girdles, tractors, and perfumes,
no longer appeals to people on
cost alone.
To provide the convenience of
one stop shopping the modern
family demands, the supermarket
has had to lift its overhead mar
gin sharply.
Back in 1930 when Michael King
Cullen opened the first King Kill
len store in Jamaica, N. Y., be
lieved to have been the first true
supermarket, he figured 10 to 12
ronic nn the sales dollar would
cover all expenses and profit.
It takes 18 cents of each sales
dollar to run today's supermarket.
Wolff said. "But that's a lot
cheaper than many small grocer
ies, who need 26 to 3D cents irom
each dollar to cover expenses and
profit."
Nevertheless, the supermarKet
with its packaged ready-to-serve
or heat-and-serve foods sell con
venience more than price, Woltt
said.
"There's no glossing over the
fact," he said, "that cereal costs
70 per cent more in the little one
serving boxes than in the big family-sized
boxes, but people like the
little boxes and will pay for
them."
