Diaper Derby
For Kiddies Karnival
Men, babies, diapers and pins will take the spotlight at the
Hollywood theater Friday night when the American Legion,
Capital post No. 9, stages a "diaper derby" as a special feature of
the Kiddie Karnival they are conducting this month.
Ten men, with infants registered in the Kiddie Karnival, will
be offered a chance to com-'
pete for a five dollar cash
award. The award will go to
the man who pins the triangle
on in the least time, but it must
be fastened securely. If baby
can squirm out of the garment
faster than Daddy pinnea it
on, the "operation" will not be
considered successful, and the
baby retaining his gear will dis
place the one who looses his.
Rules of the race will include:
(1) Daddies must supply their
own babies, diapers, and pins;
(2) Diapers must be pinned on,
they cannot be tied, and scotch
tape will be prohibited; (3) The
race will include folding the
diapers, no rule as to triangle
or square, and pinning it on
making it stay on without pin
ning it to any other garment or
to the baby; (4) Speed alone will
count. Neatness will not count.
As a forerunner to the "diaper
derby,"thre e small fry, entered
in the talent division of the pro
gram, will entertain with songs
or musical numbers.
Entrants in the baby division
of the Kiddie Karnival are re.

Kaneko
Appeals
Case for Japs
Hiroshi Kaneko, representing
all Japanese who were members
oi the Lake Labish Celery
Growers' Co-operative just pri
or to World War II, has appeal
ed to the Oregon state supreme
court in a further effort to se
cure $30,000 from Ronald Jones,
prominent Lake Labish farmer
and president of the Oregon
Farmer's Union.
Kaneko, in behalf of num
erous other Japs, had previously
sued Jones in Marion county
circuit court, and on January
31 of this year Rex Kimmell
adjudged Jones winner in the
$30,000 suit.
The Japanese had sought that
amount, alleging that Jones had
been paid money which right
fully belonged to the Japs.
The money in question was
paid to Jones by the Lake Lab
ish Celery Growers' Co-op as
salary lor supervising the har
vest of the 1942 celery crop, and
also as a payment of back rents
owed to Jones on some Lake
Labish land.
The Japs claimed that since
the 1942 celery crop was plant
ed by them, and since they
were forced to abandon thi:
area because of the government-
ordered evacuation of Jap aliens
that year, that the $30,000
should have been paid to them.
A long, drawn-out court bat-
tic ensued before a verdict was
handed down to the effect that
the Japs didn't have a cent com
ing to them.
Now appealed, the case will
be heard in the supreme court
of the State of Oregon. C. W.
Powersand and B. G. Skulason,
Portland attorneys, filed the
appeal with the Marion county
clerk Thursday.
Search Renewed
(Continued from Page 1)
Ten survivors were picked up
after they had endured miser
able cold and wet and hunger
for more than 30 hours One
was picked up later by a rescue
team from a Canadian destroyer
after he had hung with head
down for 10 hours, with legs
broken, after he had landed in
a tree on a cliff side. He suf
fered for additional hours in an
improvised shelter after other
survivors freed him but couldn't
get him to the beach.
Hopes that all of the 17 had
been rescued were blasted rude
ly this morning. The coast guard
information officer here said
the original report that all were
located, and safe, had come from
an Alaska base, but that it lab
er was corrected.
No Information on Lost
Comdr. F. J. Scheiber at the
coast guard's Ketchikan base
said this morning that there was
no information up to that time
on the other four men. He said
the best that could be presumed
by searchers, on the basis of
information at his base, was that
the missing men parachuted into
the same general island area.
The 17 men parachuted from
the ice-weighted B-36 during
Monday night. They landed on
two rugged, wooded islands off
the northern British Columbia
coast, about 400 miles northwest
of Vancouver, B. C.
Ten of the survivors were
flown here last night in a C-82
"Flying Boxcar."
The injured man who was
picked up by the Canadian sea
men was SSgt. Vitale Trippodi
of Brooklyn. A PBY took off
from McChord base this morn
ing to pick him up from the
Canadian ship. He will be
brought to the hospital here. His
condition was reported favor
able.
Ten survivors of a B-36 crash
off the northern coats of British
Columbia were brought to the
McChord base hospital last
night The air force identified
them as follows:
Lt. Col. Daniel V. Mcdonald,
observer, of Arlington, Va.

The miners' walkout, in de
fiance of stop strike orders of
both John L. Lewis and a feder
al court, appeared sure to con
tinue at least to the end of the
week. The 372,000 idle miners
vow they won't work without a
contract. They say current con

not change things at all.
The number of workers idled

(Continued irom Page 1)
The controls would apply to
this year's and all future crops,
even though an estimated 10
per cent of the 1950 potato crop
already is planted.
Lucas yesterday proposed and
won senate agriculture commit
tee approval of a plan for mar
keting controls on potatoes This
was hitched to a cotton acreage
quota bill.
The legislation introduced to
day goes much further.
Lucas estimated the proposed
new controls would save tax
payers at least $50,000,000 in
government price supports this
year.
Commenting on the agricul
ture department's multi-million-dollar
surplus potato headache,
Lucas told reporters:
These steps will remove the
scandalous situation we have
had with the potato subsidy for
the past few years.
"The time has come for con
gress to act. We cannot, under
any circumstances, continue to
subsidize these potato farmers
who are taking advantage of the
pocketbook of Uncle Sam."
Lucas said farmers have been
getting around planting restric
tions intended to hold down
crop sizes by producing greater
amounts of potatoes on smaller
plots of ground, i, .
