Fd m iliar Voice Retu rns
To Local Radio Programs
Bt VIC
An old familiar voice will be
back oh Salem radio waves
Sunday but only for the
night owls and the early birds
Those normal individuals who
go to bed before midnight and
get up after six ayem will Just
be out of luck.
The voice that of Ed McEl
roy Mac, the Melody Man
whose patter and record pro
grams decorated the Salem air
from 1946 to late 1950 before
he moved to a neighboring city
to the south to continue pleas
ing radio audiences there.
Mac's return to Salem radio
will begin at midnight Satur
day as he opens his first mu
sical program In the slx-nights-a-week
series from 12 to 6 in
the morning. '
The program will consist
mostly of hit tunes and old fa
vorites, both vocal and instru
mental, he said, but it wiU be
a diversified show, broken up
by news bulletins and local big
news breaks, some semi-classical
selections, occasional wes
tern numbers and, on Thursday
mornings at 3, a mystery pro
gram. Mac may even occasionally
lend his own vocal talents to
Co alonff with stm nf 4 Via -wan-
ords, he laughed. One of his
xavorites in this line is a rec
ord of "Coney Island Wash
board" in which he lns the
second round of the song and
men narmonizes ..with the
recording vocalist en the third
round. '
He brings a background of
i years ot varied radio work
to his new job, including sev
eral years of disc jockey pro
grams and setting up and op
erating an armed ' forces sta
tion while aervlntf in th naw
as a Chief Radio and Radar
Technician. He even tried sell
ing radios and appliances for
HERE'S A BREAK!
JJereyiats, nere are inree
views of one approved
method of building a brake
for your Soap Box Derby
racer. Two wooden blocks,
hinged at the center, are
used to connect the brake
to the car body (top photo).
A cable from the brake
pedal pulls them forward
when the pedal is pushed
forward. This action straight
ens out the double block,
forcing the drag brake down
(center). The bottom picture
shows the brake forced
against the ground by the ac
tion. At least nine square
Inches (3" by 3" must be in
contact with the pavement.
Note also that you need a
turnbuckle on the cable.

several months.
His radio career began In
1939 when he got a Job as an
announcer and as disc jockey
on the Midnight Jamboree pro
gram from 12 -to 3 on station
KWJJ in Portland.
Uncle Sam beckoned his
finger to Interrupt the budding
career for a few years. It did
n't keep him out of radio en
tirely however, for there he
studied and worked his way up
to his chief petty officer's rat
ing in radio and radar.
It was along toward the end
ot his duty with the navy that
he got permission to erect and
operate an armed forces sta
tion on Johnson. Island in the
mid-Pacific, whure1 he was sta
tioned. ' ' 1 :
. It wasn't a very powerful
station but strong enough to
cover the island completely
and regulations prohibited it's
operation during working
hours, but it broadcast music,
news and recorded programs
each noon, evening and Sun
day for several months.
Later Mac was transferred
to the Hawaiian islands where
he was handed the job of mas
ter of ceremonies for a series
by the Red Cross. : .. ..
Back in the states with an
honorable discharge in his
hands, he moved to Salem to
take it job as announcer with
KSLM. Later he successfully
passed tests for an engineer's
license and stayed with the
station as combination an
nouncer and engineer until
October' 1948 when he went
to a new Salem station for two
years as disc jockey and an
nouncer. . . ;
From there he took his nom
de plume, 'Mac, the Melody
Man," to Lebanon where he
again worked as announcer
and worked an afternoon rec
ord program. He left there last
August for a short stint at the
selling end of the radio and
appliance game in Sweet Home
but decided that was not for
him. ,
A short speU at station KGW
in Portland gave him his fill
of the big city and he grabbed
at the opportunity to get back
to Salem, where he says ne in
tends to stay.
And with his background ot
top-notch disc programs, - it
seems reasonable to assume
that he will be here for a long
time to come.

Adair Proposal
' Albany The board of direc
tors of the Albany Chamber of
Commerce' Friday added their
protest to that of North Ben
ton county residents, voting to
oppose house joint resolution
16, caling for establishment of
an Intermediate penal institu
tion at Camp Adair, W. C.
Donahue, Chamber . president,
announced.
' Donahue said the board's
action was taken because 'we
feel the facility could possibly
be better utilized commercial'
ly or industrially." He added
that the board considered It
necessary to make further in
vestigation of all possibilities
before using the Camp Adair
site for the balance of its use
ful life as an institution that
would yield little in the way
of economic benefit.
Several other considerations
were offered by representa
tives of North Benton county,
Owen Cook and Rollie Robin
son.
Among the claims made by
the Benton county men in their
argument against establish
ment, of the intermediate peni
tentiary at Camp Adair was
the minimum security offered
by the temporary installation;
low valuation of physical fa
cilities now existing at the site;
poor soil; and recognition of a
need for this type of lnstlta
tion in permanent form.
Cook and Robinson went to
Salem following the meeting
to attend a public hearing on
the house joint resolution and
to argue against its establish
ment at Camp Adair.

Ex-King Carol of Romania
Dies Suddenly in Portugal
Lisbon, Portugal W) Ex-ci
King Carol II, who abandoned
the throne of Romania tor ro
mance and a wandering life in
exile, died early today in near
by Estoril, an exclusive colony
of displaced royalty.
His death, at 59, apparently
was due to heart failure.
Alone at his side 'was his
third wife, former Madame Clem-Ma
gd a Lupescue, the red-
nairea Deauty wno was nis
companion for 23 years before
becoming his wife.
A doctor, called from his
home next door, and Carol's
secretary arrived at his' death
bed too late, it was reported.
The former ruler of now
communist-controlled Romania
complained recently of heart
trouble. He made his last pub
lic appearance this week at me
morial services in St. George
church here for Britain's Queen
Grandmother Mary.
The long romance between
the handsome playboy king and
Madame Lupescue, daughter of
an army officer, began in the
mid-1920s, when he still was
crown prince. Her court influ
ence later won her the title ot
the uncrowned queen of Roma
nia. Twice she followed him
into exile. .
Carol, son of Queen . Marie
and King Ferdinand, first re
nounced his rights to the Ro
manian throne in 1926 in favor
ot a son born to his second wife,
Princess Helen of Greece. The
boy, Mihai Michael, became
king in 1927 on the death of
Ferdinand and a council ruled.
But Carol known then as
the "bad boy of the Balkans"
returned from exile in Italy and
France in 1930 and assumed the
throne after the way had been
prepared by political friends
and an army clique.
Hectic times followed in the
politically unstable country.
