Salem, Oregon, Thursday, December 13, 1956 200-Mile Fog Blanket Cloaks No. California SAN FRANCISCO tP A thick blanket of fog. extending more more than 200 miles over North ern California, snarled land and a r traffic Thursday and menaced chips at sea. San Francisco and Oakland air ports were shut down all night. Fog caused an electronic mixup which set fog-horns roaring wildly in'tead of sounding in the rhyth mic pattern used to guide ships in and out of the Golden Gate. The timing was restored without a.iy maritime mishaps. Police in San Francisco were kept on a constant hunt for non existent burglars. The fog shorted wires, setting off burglar alarms. Traffic accidents blamed on fog blocked both decks of the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge during the peak of commuter traf fic Thursday morning. At one time traffic was hacked up for nine miles into Oakland. The fog blanket reached from the Sacramento area to Paso Robles on the central California Coast.

Cologne lippers One Group Reduced Prof Is Jailed For Contempt WASHINGTON uB A 27-year- old physicist was sentenced to 90 days in jail Thursday by a federal judge who said the younger gen eration of pure scientists has be come a "fertile field for commu nist propaganda." U.S. District Judge Alexander Holtzoff imposed the sentence on Bernard Deutch of the University of Pennsylvania. But he permitted Deutch to remain free on $500 bail pending appeal. The case grew out of Deutch's refusal to tell the House Commit tee on Un-American Activities in April, 1954, the names of one-time Communist associates. He was convicted of contempt of Congress. Deutch testified he was a mem ber of the Communist Party while a student at Cornell University in 1947-53. He declined, however, on the ground of "moral scruples" to name any of his fellow Commu nists. He contended both he and they have cut their red ties, and that naming them would bring un necessary grief to them and their families.
