Fryer Today in Salem It was a cooperative prisoner city police arrested recently on bad check charge. It seems that they had left him alone In detectives' office to make a phone call to his family.

You don't have to look any farther. Sheriff," the prisoner re plied, "I'm right here." He turned the phone over to the officer who had come in to answer it. (And. boy!

Embarrassing moment for Mrs. Harry Palladay, president of the Oregon Federation of Republican Women, at their meeting here Tuesday. She got confused in the intro ductions and introduced state ben- ate President Boyd Overhulse as Robert Overhulse and Mayor Rob ert White as Mayor Boyd White Mv friend Archibald suggested that maybe she should be excused since, after all, why should a good Republican be expected to remem ber Democrat Overhulse': name. He also thought that Bob White has been kidded enough about his bird-like name that he didn't mind being mistaken for a Boyd (ouch!). Overhulse, incidentally, hasn't pulled a Morse and switched parties. He was invited to the Republican shindig as a personal guest of one of the brass and was Introduced because he's top man on senate totem pole.

Charge Against City Officials Made at Meet Local Civil Service Unit Told Eight Have Had Other Jobs Charges that seven Salem firemen and a city police of ficer' have been working at jobs other than their city duties were voiced at the meet ing of the Salem civil service commission Wednesday after noon.

Craven, Ronald Ruck and Gerald Hall and police patrolman LaVerne Jenness, wore engaged in building a house for profit un der Hall's direction. The commission indicated that hearings on the charges would be held but no definite date has yet been set. Delay Certification Members of the commission al so delayed certification of recent fire and police department exam inations until information on all of the applicants is complete.

Boating Croup Lays Tentative Regatta Plans Plans for a regatta, adoption of a new constitution and selection of a new name were the main items on the agenda of the Salem Yacht and Boating club Wednesday night at ' the Salem Memorial hospital chapel.

Taxes In boat clubs must go up, too, it was decided, and dues were increased to $10 a year and a $15 initiation fee was adopted. Club participation In tho May 4 regatta In Portland was approved in a vote. A nominating committee was named with Graham Sharkey as chairman. Elections are set for March 20. ' Postmaster Proposed WASHINGTON Ml - Rep. Nor- blad (R-Ore) has recommended appointment of Mrs. Lola Louise Mitchell as acting postmaster at JJnic in Grant county, ure. She would fill the Vacancy created by death of Hazel Arbo gast, the former postmaster. The position pays $1,888 a year. Dr. Willard J. Stone, county "r health officer, said that there was - a certain amount of tax-purchased Salk vaccine available. After that ' was exhausted there is a possibil-, i ity that a fee might be charged, ka t each individual receiving the vac- ' cine. .'."' Plan Outlined 'fs The plan is to set up clinics in-.' various schools and public build-" t ings, made available during the , , 1955 campaign, and secure volun- V teer assistants for the physicians., ', . It would be the obligation of the " medical society to assign the doc- tors. According to the proposal of the-. .4... physicians, the inoculations would , be given one day each week dur- - ing March. ,'f :'j. Members of the. medical profes- - " sion are not unanimous in their""'" backing of the plan that was adopt ' !' cd by the Marion - Polk Medical - '..'v society Tuesday night. However, the vote to support the project was ' 43 to 12. Nevertheless, manv nhvsiciani would welcome an opportunity to'""' take care of the inoculation pro- gram in a single effort. One doc- -', ., tor said there was no money to -;. be made in giving the shots, par-tr ' ticularly if the charges had to be i entered on the books. ' Charges Vary . ' ' Charges for the inoculations '- -v vary. They range from a mini-" ' mum of $2.50 to a maximum of - "r $5. This means that for the three- i shot series the cost would be from $7.50 to $15 for each individual. . ..""'.' One large clinic has adopted a program of giving reductions in so price to family groups if all mem- v .' bers present themselves at a single . time. The cost of the Salk vaccine to the doctor has been approximate ly $1.20 per cc. It is understood that this price has been slightly reduced recently. A given number of the containers of the vaccina will not inoculate the same num ber of persons, it was said, since there invariably is a slight lost of fluid for one cause or another. In a few Instances members of the medical profession express un qualified opposition to any sort or, mass inoculations where doctors are called upon to give their serv ices without charge. "It borders on state medicine, they contend.
