Cunningham
Pleads Guilty
Paul B, Cunningham, 27, of
Portland, who made the head
lines in a duel of stubbornness
with a street car motorman, ap
peared in district court here
Tuesday and pleaded guilty to
giving a check without suffi
cient funds. He will be sentenc
ed Wednesday, and in the mean
time is held in lieu of $300 bail.
In Salem Cunningham is al
leged to have passed a $15 check
at the Willamette Valley bank
and two checks, one for $10 and
one for $15 at the Senator hotel.
Cunningham is the motorist
who got into the duel of stub
bornness with a street car mo
torman in Portland last week
over a parking place.
The street car man refused to
back up to let Cunningham into
parking place. Cunningham
refused to move. Traffic was
tied up 20 minutes in the rush
hour.
Cunningham thought he won
when a policeman finally made
the street car back up so he
could park. Then the patrol
man gave a court summons to
both men.
In court yesterday in Portland
Cunningham got a dressing
down from the judge, but also
won a suspension of his $5 fine
for blocking traffic. The motor-
man, E. A. Redford, who lost his
job over the affair, did not show
up. His $5 bond, posted by the
street car company, was for
feited.
Then Cunningham walked
victoriously out of court only to
be nabbed by police. They said
they recognized him as a man
accused in Salem of writing a
worthless check.
Then he went back into the
police station, under escort.

Zone Change for Eight Lots
The city council Monday night set the night of August 9, date
of the next meeting for a public hearing on the proposed change
of zone involving eight lots between Center street and Jason Lee
cemetery, and west of and adjoining Salem General hospital
grounds.
The property, which is owned -
by P. D Quisenberry, Dr. Vern
W. Miller and Joe Hutchison
will be the location of a phar
macy operated by Quisenberry,
and in the same building a cof
fee shop operated by Al Benson
of The Ace. It is also expected
that doctors' clinics may be at
tracted to the district, since
three clinics already have lo
cated and are building on the
adjoining hospital grounds.
The change of zone applied
for is from Class I Residential
to Class III Business. The prop
erty is Lots 5, 6, 7 and 8 of
Block 1 and Lots 5, 6, 7 and 8
of Block 2, Glen Oak addition.

restrictive to prevent the loca
tion of any businesses that

: pitals or clinics.
1 Quiscnberry's building will
be on Grear street, on a lot ad
joining the hospital grounds. It
will be 40 by 60 feet, faced with
Roman brick, and probably of
reinforced concrete. It will be
one slory but designed for ad
ditional stories if necessary. In
style it will conform to the doc
tors' clinic building now under
construction. It was designed
by D. A Huston. Construction
will start as soon as the zone
change Is made.
The Quisenberry drug store
was formerly in the Guardian
building which was destroyed
by fire. He is now temporarily
located on Ferry street, and will
have a downtown store in the
Breyman building at Court and
Commercial when that building
is remodeled this year.
Breyman Boise said three oth
er businesses would occupy the
ground floor of the building,
but that the tenants have not
yet been decided on. The upper
floor will continue as office
quarters and will also be re
modeled. The lower floor was
office space for the state selec
tive service during the war.

Though the exact date and
circumstances are unknown,
news of Oregon's territorial sta
tus reached Salem some time
late in the winter of 1849. The
community consisted of about a
dozen houses, the Methodist In
stitute and Uncle Tommy Cox's
general store. Most robust males
were yet away digging for gold
in California. Perhaps the fe
male population was more in
terested in an autopsy on Mr
Popham by Dr. W. H. Willson
as a consequence of Popham's
death while fighting with Mr.
Bosworth who resented the
Popham children stoning Mrs.
Bennett's chickens, than they
were in a new political status.

ment of territorial status was a
matter of small consequence
This tiny frontier community
amid riverside stumps was sur
passed by flourishing Milwau
kie and Ignored by promising
St. Helens. In a letter dated
April 1. 1848 the Reverend Wil

minister, states that Portland

have not been able this winter
to supply the place with preach

Roselli Jailed
Los Angeles, July 27 (IP)
John Roselli, sentenced In New
York to a 10-year prison term
in connection with the million
dollar shakedown of motion pic
ture producers several years
ago, surrendered today under a
warrant issued by the federal
parole board which terminated
his parole.
Immediately after he surren
dered to U. S. Marshal Robert
Clark. Roselli's attorneys filed
a petition for writ of habeas
corpus, charging the parole ter
mination was arbitrary and due
to political considerations.
Attorney Ot t o Christensen
said a congressional committee
demanded the termination of
paroles of Roselli and four
others In "hearings that were
made use of in an apparent ef
fort to discredit the democratic
administration, the parole board
and the attorney general." He
said the legislative committee
searched for evidence of cor
ruption and undue influence in
granting Roselli's parole "but
no such evidence was obtained."
Roselli was convicted with
Willie Bioff and others for
threatening reprisals against
movie producers in labor-man
agement relations in the In
dustry. Man from Mars
Blamed Again
Portland, Ore., July 27 (IP)
The man from Mars theory had
another supporter here today.
Moulton B. Taylor, Longview,
Wash., engineer in charge of
the navy's guided missile de
velopment program in the war,
joined those who believe the
strange objects reported speed
ing through American skies are
from another planet.
"It could be men from Mars,"
he insisted to a reporter.
"Why not? We know how to
build such an escape missile-
one that could escape the bounds
of gravity and soar Into free
space among tne planets ... it
we can build such craft, what is
to prevent others from doing so,
assuming that a similar order of
intelligence exists on other
planets?" he continued.
"You and I may see the day
when we will be united with
Russia defending this planet
from attack from space," Taylor
said.
