CENTRAL OREGON'S DAILY NEWSPAPER 59th Year Pope suffers stomach ills and anemia VATICAN CITY (UPI) - Pope John XXHI is suffering from stomach trouble and anemia, the Vatican announced today. High Vatican sources indicated tiie pontiff may have a gastric ulcer. The Pope, 81, became ill last Tuesday for the first time since he ascended the throne of St. Peter a little more than four years ago and for one of the few times in his life. After first saying the illness was due to a cold and influenza, the Vatican announced today that the Pope has "gastric troubles" which have caused "rather strong ane mia." Lack of Vitality Gastric troubles are disorders of the stomach. Anemia is a condi tion in which the blood is defi cient in red cells, hemoglobin, or both. It is characterized by a lack of vitality. According to medical authorities there are about 80 different types of anemia. Gastric symptoms are common to many anemias. A bleeding gastric ulcer, for instance is a gastric symptom which would produce an anemia. Dr. Luciano Casimirri, head of the Vatican press office, said the Pope awakened today "full of vi tality," although he remained in bed. His Illness overshadowed the work of the Ecumenical Council he called to the Vatican. Although today is the council's regular free day, the cardinals, bishops, and other delegates remained in close touch with the Vatican secretariat on the Pope's condition. Cancels Audiences Pope John was forced to can cel audiences Tuesday and Wednesday, the first time he has done so because of illness since becoming Pontiff Oct. 28, 1958. It was not immediately known when the Pope would be able to resume watching the Ecumenical Council sessions on his closed-circuit television system. This has been his method of keeping in touch with council debates since attending the opening ceremonies last month. In Friday's council meeting, the presidency Is expected to an nounce a decision on whether to change the agenda. Alfredo Card inal Ottaviani proposed Wednes day that debate on his draft "De Ecclesia" (about the church) be postponed until the second series of council meetings, which begins next September. Hungry dog waits refurn of master A big dog, hungry unless fed by passcrsby and chilled by No vember winds, patiently waits be side the Central Oregon Highway some 70 miles east of Bend for a master who has not returned. Tile dug has been adjacent to the highway near the Stauffer road, cast of Hampton, for some 10 days. It is described as a hound type of animal, solid tan in color and wearing a studded col lar to which is attached about a foot and a half of chain. VTom Huntington, who had been i.orking on the DeWitt ranch, part of the "Cil" Ranch holdings near Glass Butte, noticed the dog and fed the creature daily. The first day, the dog apparently was near starvation, and gulped "about a gallon and a half" of food, Hunt ington said. Huntington has mov ed from the area, and fears the dog will starve unless located by its unknown owner, or is provided food by passersby. Huntington attempted to get near the dog. to examine a pos sible name or number on the collar, but failed.

This picture, taken by Bulletin Photogra pher Nate Bull, pictures Magill as he stepped Into the club, to find it packed with friends acclaiming him "a jolly good fellow." Surprise dinner Lloyd Magill honored on 50th anniversary By Phil F. Brogan Bulletin Staff Writer Pharmacists of Oregon joined friends and neighbors here last night in tribute to Lloyd H. Ma gill, in recognition of SO years of service to his community. The occasion was a surprise dinner at the Bend Golf Club for Magill, who came to Bend in 1912, fresh from college, and remained to establish a business now rec ognized as one of the oldest retail operations in Central Oregon. He is owner of the Magill Drug Co., which has been in the same loca tion since October 10, 1916, when it was founded as the Magill and Erskine firm, in the O'Kane Building. Heading the tribute to Magill was Dean Charles O. Wilson, of the Oregon State University School of Pharmacy. It was from OSU, then OAC, that Magill was graduated 50 years ago. after tak ing his prep work at Springfield High School. He is a native of Co burg, where he was born on Oct. 24, 1890. Charter Member Also here for the dinner was Prof. H. C. Forslund of OSU, who spoke as a regent of Kappa Psi, national pharmacy honor fratern ity, of which Magill was a charter member while attending college in Corvallis. Prof. Forslund presented Magill with a replica of the original char ter which hangs in the OSU School of Pharmacy. Also presented to the veteran Bend pharmacist was a plaque, with Magill's picture engraved on bronze. This plaque recognizes Magill's 50 years in the Bend field. The presentation was by W. L. VanAllen. Others joining in tributes to Ma gill were OrviUe Corbett, Burns, president of the Oregon State Board of Pharmacy; Peyton Hawes, Portland, a long - time friend of the Bend man; Dr. Grant Skinner, Bend, who spoke as a neighbor of the man honor ed and, among others, Lee Rich ardson of the Bay area, formerly of Seattle, Wash.

Pakistan (LTD Pakistan and India were report ed ready today to announce plans for direct talks aimed at settling their bitter dispute over Kashmir and other issues in the face of Communist Chinese aggression. Informed sources said simul ianous announcements were ex pected in Rawalpindi and New Delhi that Pakistan President Mohammad Ayub Khan and In Bend, The dinner, planned by friends and neighbors, was a secret to Magill, who was induced to drive out to the Bend Golf Club, and on entering the building found the room packed with men hailing him in song, as a "jolly good fellow," Surprises continued at the din ner table when Dean Wilson pro duced a complete record of Ma gill's scholastic work at both Springfield High School and OSU. It was noted by Dean Wilson that in those distant days, Magill en rolled in and completed a full and stiff college course, in an era when a pharmacist did not re quire a college education. Homecoming for Many Not only was the dinner a sur prise for Magill, but it served as a homecoming for many old-time Bend residents. From Portland came Dr. John Besson, Ward H. Coble, A. J. Glassow, Clark Rhodes and, among others, Norm an Mannheimer. Dr. E. E. Gray and J. D. Donovan were here from Eugene. Pharmacists were present from many parts of the state. One of the highlights of the pro gram was the reading by Blak ley of a letter from Dr. James F. Jensen, president of Oregon State University. It was a tribute to Ma gill. Magill first came to Bend in 1912 and was associated with Ralph Poindexter in the operation of the early-day Owl Pharmacy, immediately following his gradua tion from OSU. He was in Eugene for a short time, then returned to Bend to join the late Charles Erskine, attorney, in founding the Magill Drug store.

(Reliable sources in New Delhi said Ayub and Nehru will meet at "an early date." The unexpect ed move by the old enemies was the result of Anglo-American me diation, the sources said. The sources added that there will be an early meeting at the "minis Deschutes County, Oregon, Thursday, November 29, Mikoyan has meeting set with Kennedy WASHINGTON (UPI) Soviet Deputy Premier Anastas I. Miko yan came here today for talks on the Cuban situation with President Kennedy and other U.S. officials. The Kremlin trouble shooter ex pressed hope the discussions would be "pleasant and possibly useful." Mikoyan, who returned this week from 24 days of negotiations with Cuba's Fidel Castro, arrived by Soviet plane at Andrews Air Force Base. He seemingly was in an affable mood. His late afternoon meeting with Kennedy at the White House was expected to deal initially with cleaning up problems remaining from the now-abated Cuban crisis and possibly expand into a review of other cold war conflicts. In a brief appearance before newsreel and television cameras, the Soviet official remarked that he was "very pleased" to be in Washington. Referring to his con ference schedule, Mikoyan com mented: "I hope tills will be pleas ant and possibly useful." Top American officials said the principal subject for discussion at the afternoon White House meeting Between Kennedy and Mikoyan would be the Cuban crisis. Await Russian Proof The major point, as far as the Americans were concerned, was how and when Soviet Premier Ni kita Khrushchev intends to fulfill his promise to prove that Cuba has been purged of all offensive Russian weapons. But they acknowledged that oth er subjects might come up. Mikoyan arrived here from New York, where he had been nego tiating with special U.S. represen tatives since going there Monday from a 24-day visit to Cuba. Officials said Kennedy would be willing to restate the U.S. position on Berlin and other cold war is sues if Mikoyan brings them up. They added, however, that the U.S. Chief Executive had no in tention of doing any negotiating with Mikoyan on anything other than Cuba. Actually, U.S. officials doubt that Mikoyan has authority from Khrushchev to get into any bed rock arguments on Berlin or other matters. They tend to believe he is on something of a "fishing ex pedition" to test Kennedy's mood before going back to Moscow to report to Khrushchev. U.S. officials said they hoped Mikoyan would be in a position to give Kennedy assurances that international inspection ar rangements can be made to veri fy removal of missiles and bomb ers from Cuba, as Khrushchev promised in his Oct. 28 message to the President. 220 pints taken in visit here by Bloodmobile The Red Cross Bloodmobile went over the top Wednesday in Bend, collecting 220 pints of blood, 20 over the quota.

(See story, page two). 129 fires, but only 587 acres lost in blazes Fires on the Deschutes Nation al Forest this past season burned only 587 acres of timberland, but a total of 129 fires, about one-half of them man-caused, were report ed. Throughout the federal forests of the Pacific Northwest Region, the fire loss this year was low, 3.500 acres compared with more than 20,000 acres last year, J. Herbert Stone, regional forester, said. The 129 fires reported on the Deschutes forest in the 1962 sea son compares with 293 in 1961. Deschutes foresters said that the number of lightning caused fires in the 1962 season was below average. The total this year was 67, compared with a five year average of 84. There were 92 in 1961. there were 61 man caused fires in 1962, compared with a five-year average of 90. The all time high was 121 in 1959. There were only seven hunters' fires in the season. One-third of the fires were caused by smokers or rcc reationists. There were 13 fires of incendi ary origin in one small area on private land protected by the U.S. Forest Service. Weather was an important fact or in keeping fire losses at a low level. Stone said, but he empha sized that other factors played an important part: Among factors cited were more personnel, both in prevention and suppression work: greater emphasis on train ing of supervisory personnel; im proved use of aircraft, fire pre vention programs and the coop eration of all who use the woods.

Featherbedding ruling upheld CHICAGO (UPI) More legal battles between the nation's rail roads and five big unions loomed today following a court ruling that the carriers may institute "anti-fcatherbedding" work rule changes. The U.S. Circuit Court of Ap peals said Wednesday the rail roads have the right to impose the sweeping changes which eventually would eliminate up to 80,000 jobs without the consent of the unions. The ruling upheld a decision by federal District Court Judge Joseph Sam Perry. J. E. Wolfe, chief railroad ne gotiator, said the carriers would "move promptly" to make the changes as soon as the appeals court dissolves a temporary in junction against such action. BULLETIN ST.

Sixteen Pages strike emdled Governor asked to commute Freeman death SALEM (UPI) - A 24-year-old University of Oregon student called on Gov. Mark Hatfield Wednesday and asked him to commute the death sentence of Jcannace June Freeman, 21, The student, George Ncavoll. Eugene, is an acquaintance of Miss Freeman's. Ho said he met her in Eugene prior to the 1961 slaying of Larry Jackson, 6, who was thrown into Central Oregon's Crooked River Gorge. It was for this slaying that the Freeman woman was conviotcd of first degree murder. Miss Freeman won a stay of execution in Jefferson County Circuit court at Madras last week, pending a possible appeal of her conviction to the U. S. Supreme Court. Neavoll, a junior majoring In political science, said he told Hat field that Miss Freeman was not to blame for her actions. . Ncavoll also said it was unfair for Miss Freeman to get a death sentence while her companion, Mrs. Gertrude Nunez Jackson, got a life sentence. Mrs. Jackson was convicted of first degree murder, for the slaying of the dead boy's sister, Martha Mao Jackson, 4. The governor indicated he has made no decision yet in the Free man case, Ncavoll said. Jefferson County sheriff's dep uties were to pick Miss Freeman up here this afternoon and take her to Madras for a court ap pearance Friday. Her new execu tion date will be set at that time, and she will be returned to the penitontiary here the same day. Girl keeps fire under control Joanna Atchison, 17-year-old Bend High School student, used her wits in keeping a fire under control last night in the home of Guy Paxton, 1625 Galveston. Miss Atchison repeatedly pour ed pans of water on a dining room wall that ignited around the collar of a space-heater flue. The teenage baby - sitter for three young children first phoned the fire department when she discov ered the fire. Fire crews used hose and lad der to combat the blaze and were forced to chop a small hole in the wall. Only moderate damage to the house resulted. Miss Atchison is the daughter of Mr. and Mrv Joseph B Atchison of 18 Gilchrist. No. 303 Machinists pull pickets from plants BURBAN'K, Calif (UPI) A nation wide strike against the Lockheed Aircraft Corp. was called off today at the request of the government and the Inter national Association of Machinists said it would remove its picket Immediately. . Union members had set up lines at Lockheed gates from Honolulu to Cape Canaveral, Fla., Wednes day after negotiations broke down over the company's refusal to bargain over permitting employes to vote on an union shop clause. The company said such a vota could force 14,000 workers to join a union against their will. A three-man fact-finding board was appointed Wednesday by President Kennedy to see if the Taft-Hartley Law should be in voked to halt the work stoppage In the huge aerospace firm. The board will meet here Friday witb both sides and report to the presi- dent Monday. ' The union said that "at the re quest of a representative of the President we are . directing all IAM members to return to Jobi on afternoon shifts today." A union spokesman said- all pickets would be removed Im mediately from Lockheed facili ties. , The union claimed production had been brought "to an abso lute standstill" by the strike and . that "unrest- will continual to plague work areas until a fair and equitable agreement if reached." Lockheed agreed to reinstate all terms and conditions of the ex pired contract as soon as the strike is ended. President Kennedy acted to in voke the Taft-Hartley Act Wednei day the first day of the strike saying continuance of the walkout "would imperil the national health and safety." White House Press Secretary Pierre Salinger said the President acted under a finding that the strike "affects a substantial part of the ballistic missile, space ve hicle and military aircraft indus try." The President named a spe cial board to study the strike. Under Taft-Hartley law provi sions, the President is empowered to halt the strike for an 80-day "cooling-off" period if the board of inquiry ruled that such action was warranted. Labor Secretary W. Willard Wiiiz expressed hope Wednesday the 1AM would refrain from pick eting at Capo Canaveral and Van denberg Air Force base while the board studies the dispute. Wirtz, said he had "no present plans for taking part In the pro ceedings," but added, "I hop very much that union picketing at Vandenberg and Canaveral can be called off while the board of inquiry is holding its hearings." Lockheed public relations Di rector Jon Riffcl said, "production has been curtailed, but not to a significant degree. We're going to meet our production sched ules."
