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.

'HE'S A JOLLY GOOD FELLOW Most surprised man
at a civic dinner Wednesday night at the Bend Golf Club
was Lloyd H. Magill, for whom the surprise dinner and pro
gram was arranged. 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. Present from
Portland was Layke Seaton, mem
ber of the state pharmacy board.
Officials of the Oregon State
Pharmaceutical Association join
ed in the salute to Magill, with
Henry Speckman, Portland, the
association's secretary mana
ger, present.
Blakley Presides
Loyde S. Blakley, Bend, long a
hunting companion of Magill, pre
sided at the dinner, attended by
more than 100 persons.
India, Pakistan
RAWALPINDI. 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.

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.

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.

Probe planned
of Lake Valley

PORTLAND (UPI) Postal In
spectors said Wednesday two per
sons have been subpoenaed to ap
pear before a federal grand jury
here Dec. 13 in connection with
reported probe into a land pro
motion project at Lake Valley
south of Burns.
The probe was said to have
been conducted by the Postal
Service and the Federal Trade
Commission (FTC).
A spokesman for the FTC in
Seattle declined to say why the
government conducted the investi
gation. Oregon's real estate commis
sioner, Robert Jensen, recently
toured land developments in East
orn Oregon and said the state
needs a subdivision law.
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.

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.

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."
