    MacDonald Put
Back by Elliott
Portland, Aug. 6 W If dem
ocratic Sheriff Marion Leroy
(Mike) Elliott of Multnomah
county is recalled, a democrat
will be named to succeed him.
The county's two republican
commissioners agreed on that
yesterday. The third commis
sioner is a democrat.
Recall petitions continued in
circulation as the sheriff drop
ped the charges that touched off
the recall move.
Those were his charges against
Criminologist Stanley MacDon
ald. Yesterday he reinstated
MacDonald with back pay, and
did not ask for a hearing on the
charges that MacDonald had
misused materials and was in
subordinate. A prepared statement from
Elliott said, "Sheriff Elliott feels
that his act of suspension was
justifiable, but since the board
of county commissioners approv
ed of the arrangement of Mr.
MacDonald taking outside work,
that he has immediately rein
stated him."
MacDonald was suspended
July 7.

Small, Hot Object
Found in Back Yard
Milwaukie, Aug. 6 (IP) Mack
Thompson found a small, smok
ing what-is-it in his back yard
near lfere. When he called po
lice, it baffled them too. Now it
is in a laboratory for tests.

enough to start a grass fire when
he found it last Saturday night.
He buried it.
When police dug it up Monday
and scratched it with a stick, it
gave off sparks and the stick
began to smoke, he said. Results
of the laboratory analysis have
