Judge Allows
JoynertoGo
Into Marines
Polk to Dismiss Case,
Marion Charge Held
In Abeyance
A Polk county charge of assault
with a dangerous weapon against
a Salem youth will probably be
dismissed since he has now joined
the marines. District Attorney
Walter Foster said Tuesday. A
Marion county charge against him
will be held m abeyance, officials
indicated.
Jack Crawford Joyner, 17, was
allowed to join the marines Mon
day by Clackamas county Circuit
Judge Ralph Holman, apparently
through a misunderstanding as to
the nature of the charge against
the youth.
Arrested for Shots
Joyner was arrested by Salem
police last week after he shot at
a window in a West Salem home
with an air rifle, an incident in
which an eight-year-old girl was
hit near the eye by a splinter of
flying glass.
He was later released to Judge
Holman at the latter's request as
the youth had been on probation
from his court on a juvenile delin
quency charge.
Judge Holman said Monday he
did not understand that Polk coun
ty had an assault charge against
Joyner but thought that it was
only a delinquency charge. "I ap
parently misunderstood the infor
mation. . . .relayed by Foster," he
said.
Dismissal Sought
Foster said Tuesday he would
ask for a dismissal of the charge
against the youth. Polk county has
no desire to cause Joyner any dif
ficulties in the service, he indi
cated. Marion county juvenile officer
Dr. James Ashbaugh said that a
charge of assault and battery
against Joyner will probably be
held in abeyance for the time
being.
The charge results from an al
tercation between 6-1, 180-pound
Joyner and another North Salem
youth about December 19, Ash
baugh said. The second youth has
a medical bill of $36.50 for re
pairs to a broken nose and other
injuries resulting from that atlair,
Ashbaugh stated. The hearing on
the assault and battery charge had
been set for today but had been
postponed after the Polk county
arrest.
Although the local charge will
be set aside for now, Ashbaugh
said, Joyner still could face a civil
suit for damages from the Decern
ber 19 incident.
City Building
Starts Slowly
Salem is expected to run quite
heavily in building permits during
1957, at least well up to average,
but the start is slow, almost with
out precedent.
The first week of the new year .
shows exactly $175 In permits, ac-
cording to records in the building
inspector's office at City Hall.
The first permit of the year was
to George Gutekunst, to repair his
fire-damaged garage at 1353 Che
meketa at an estimated cost of
$100. And Cleat Mamie got a per-;
mit to alter an apartment house at
450 South Capitol at a cost of $75.
In addition, however, is a wreck
ing permit to E. S. Ritter. No
estimate is recorded for wrecking
permits. Ritter will tear down for
the LF Corporation the building at
153-157 South Liberty for which
no replacement has yet been an
nounced.
Mark Hatfield
'Mends Bridges'
Secretary of State Mark Hatfield
was "mending his bridges'
Wednesday, according to Travis
Cross, of his staff.
The new secretary kept a date
with his dentist Tuesday morning
to have some bridge work com
pleted. Cross said that Hatfield had
been unable to get a dentist's ap
pointment prior to taking over the
office, and as a result had "dif
ficulty in smiling" as he shook
hands with more than 1.000 well
wishers Monday afternoon at his
reception.

Polio Patient Back
Following Year in Hospitals
By JANET TUGMAN STONE
Capital Journal Writer
"I'm gonna be all right I can't
tell you how it's been the pain
it's really hard but I'm going to
walk and work and fish and mow
the lawn it'll take time but I'll
do it-1
Elton Spencer, paralyzed from
the hips down, the muscles in his
legs and arms sore and wasting,
snoke from the chair where he is
confined until he learns to walk
again.
Stunned at First'
When they told Spencer he had
polio, he admits he was "stunned."
"1 was sort of delirious at first
but I wasn't much concerned be
cause I didn't know much about
it I thought it would be easy."
This was in December of 1955.
For a year Elton Spencer, afflicted
with bulbar and spinal polio has
been in hospitals receiving medi
cal and therapeutics treatment for
the disease which has changed his
life completely.
According to Spencer, he first
went to the hospital Dec. 12 with
an ailment at first diagnosed as
pneumonia. On the 13th the ver
dict was changed to polio. As he
says. Spencer didn't at first think
too seriously of his ailment. He
felt it would soon go away, as it
had with his young son, Ellon, Jr.
Body Got Sore
But "my body got terrifically
sore, I could barely move tne
pain was all I could stand,' and
he realized how serious the sick
ness is.
"I couldn't help but be depressed
but I had a choice, either face it
and fight it or sit down and cry.
I'm still fighting."
Everybody, says Spencer, had
encouraging words for him. At
times, he says, when he felt he
might as well give up, he couldn't
take any more, someone else
would walk or move or he himself
would find a new response to his
constant efforts.
Then they put him in an iron
lung. "It was very confining. I
was very unhappy, my first goal
was to get out ol that thing!

his own now, and is planning a new career with
confidence In almost full recovery. He Is shown
with his wife Ella Mae. Elton Lester, I and one
half and Jay Dean, S months.
In about six months he 'was
moved to the Northwest Respira
tion Center in Seattle, a polio fund
built and supported institution.
There they have specialists in
the art of breathing, of re-using
sick muscles. There is occupation
al therapy, leather work and
hand weaving, special exercises to
rc-lcarn the use of the hands ana
legs.
Gets Out of Lung
Here Spencer was taken out of
the iron lung and spent his first
days in a year, out of bed. "It
felt wonderful to get out how
could 1 feel discouraged again I
was on my way."
And this year he was home for
Christmas. Still confined to a
chair, still unable to reassumc
normal activities, but looking for
ward to, well, almost full recovery
in the future.
Spencer is just one of 32 patients
receiving polio care in Marion
County. Only three of them actual
ly came down with the disease
in 1956, the rest are reporting for
treatment.
For them and for someone like
Elton Spencer, the polio fund was
a life saver, without it I couldn t
have lived I can't tell you what
it has meant to us there
terrific cost to polio, no one can
afford it the people's dimes who
made polio research and the re
habilitation center and the iron
lungs possible, made it possible
for me to live.
Approximately $13,408.90 plus his
own polio insurance has been
spent on patient Spencer. All of
this came from the polio fund.
"Of course," says Spencer,
"perhaps someone who hasn't been
hit like 1 have, doesn't know what
this gift of dimes has meant but
I didn't Ihink it could happen to
mc either that's one of the things
you learn it might as well be
you as anyone else."
But, with continued treatment,
therapeutical and medical, Spen
cer will soon be at work again,
"every day I feel more confident."

Salem Couple
Beats Crowd
At Rose Bold
Thii U a story of how a
"country cousin" put one over
on the "city slicker."
It deals with Mr. and Mrs.
Don Hendrie, who went south
after Christmas to take In the
East-West and Rose Bowl foot
ball games.
The games were fine, but Don,
a former W.S.C, athlete and op
erator of a local medical lab.
decided to Ret out ahead of the
crowd as the end grew near In
the lown-O.S.C. battle.
The Hendrles spotted a bus
that bore the legend ''Holly
wood" and decided that would
be their immediate destination.
Climbing the steps of the ve
hicle they snw two other pnssen
gers hand the mot or man pink
slips. The llendries hesitated a
moment, expected to be told the
amount of the fare.
The motorman paid no atten
tion so the passengers from Sa
lem moved back in the vehicle.
Probably one of those buses
where you pay when you get
off," mused Don.
The trip was a speedy one.
At the Hollywood terminus It
developed thnt the bus was a
chartered" one and those indi
viduals with the pink slips had
paid for the round trip. The mo
torman evidently pulled out
when he had counted the re
quired number ot passengers.
Now Hendrie is wondering who
was left at the post.
In any event he and his wife
got a free and uninterrupted trip
from the Rose Bowl,
