12 U.S. Students
Held in Prison
1 Hamburg, Germany, Sept. 28
IPi Two American students
said today Russian authorities
held them prisoners in "dun
geons" for two months because
they thought they were spies
United States authorities
brought the two youths from the
Russian zone of Germany to
Hamburg in the British zone
this afternoon after obtaining
their release in Magdeburg.
Warren Oelmer, Jr., 20, of
Oyster Bay, N.Y., was returned
with his father in Hamburg. The
other youth is Peter Sellers, 19,
of Radnor, Pa.
The senior Oelsner arranged
immediate airline passage to
take his son and Sellers home.
The two young men were es
corted from Magdeburg by Brig.
Gen. W. W. Hess, chief of the
American military mission at
Potsdam, who negotiated with
the Russians.
The tall and lanky boys were
pale apparently from long con
finement and said they couio
stand a good meal."
Oelsner explained that he and
Sellers thought they could bicy
cle to Berlin through the Soviet
zone "and we did not realize
how serious this was."
Radar Defense
On Both Coasts
Washington, Sept. 28 W) The
air force said today radar air de
fense systems are operating on
both coasts of the United States
and in Alaska.
Beyond confirming their exist
ence, nowever, tne air lorce de
clined to give any details on the
radar stations along the north
west and northeast coastal areas.
Operation of the Pacific
Northwest system was first dis
closed in Seattle on Monday by
newspaper reporters and Rep.
Jackson (D., Wash.) who made
a tour of defense posts. The air
force, in response to questions
today, said a similar setup is
working In the northeastern
area.
Although there was no direct
indication of the scope and ef
ficiency of the radar spotting
areas in detecting a possible
sneak approach of hostile planes,
it is significant that the air
force refers to them only as
"systems."
Air force experts recently
have emphasized that there Is a
decided difference betwen a sys-
tm and a true network. A net
work, they explained, Is a solid
fence of radar stations, with
their range so overlapped that
any air craft coming across it
would be detected.
A system can be a network
with holes in it that is it is
made up of radar units for
guarding only certain areas.
Eagles' Iron Lung
Fund Shy $1800
Vick Withrow, chairman of
the special committee of the
Fraternal Order of Eagles that
is raising a fund for purchase of
an "iron lung" for the commun
ity, said Wednesday the fund is
about $1800 short of comple
tion. In actual cash the lodge has
raised approximately 2200, but
several donations are known to
be ready but have not yet been
turned in. The campaign has
been in progress about five
weeks.
The "lung" will be presented
to the Marion county chapter
of the Polio Foundation.
New Polio Case Bruce Gott
fried. 9 years old, son of Mr. and
Mrs. Leonard P. Gottfried, 1335
Pearl street, was taken to Salem
Memorial hospital Wednesday,
suffering from poliomylitii or
Infantile paralysis. Observation
indicated, it was said, that the
disease is of the severe type.
The boy is not confined in the
"iron lung."

Hawaiian Dock
Work Upheld
Honolulu, Sept. 28 (U.B A
two-judge federal court panel
today denied a petition for an
injunction to stop the territorial
government from operating the
strike-bound waterfront.
The decision, in effect, upheld
validity of territorial laws
which permtted the government
to hire longshoremen to handle
cargo which had been tied up
since the International Long
shoremen's and Warehousemen's
union (CIO) went on strike ISO
days ago.
The judges divided, hence the
union's petition for an injunc
tion failed of approval.
Judge Delbert E. Metzger was
in favor of granting the peti
tion on grounds the emergency
laws passed by the territorial
legislature were unconstitution
al. Judge Frank J. McClaugh-
lin was against granting the pe
tition. "I profoundly regret my asso
ciate and I cannot agree," Metz
ger said, but we are so far apart
in our views that there is no
middle ground."
Since the territory seized the
docks August 15, government
hired longshoremen have un
loaded 120,000 tons of food and
other cargo and loaded 129,000
tons of sugar and pineapple.
