Racial problems exist in areas other than the South LOS ANGELES (UPI)-ln law, Negro In Los Angeles is the equal of a white man. In fact, he is not, according to civil rights authorities. This sprawling metropolis has a Negro population of about 350,000 -or 14 per cent of its over-all t.t million. Ninety per cent of the Negroes are concentrated in a south-central section of the city where a white face Is a rarity. This is what civil rights leaders call do facto segregation or geo graphical segregation established by "gentlemen's agreements" to keep the Negro in a ghetto even though the laws are on his side. Today the county Negro pop ulation Is estimated at 615,000. Most of these people live within the city of Los Angeles but there are a few Negro islands in sub urban Pasadena and Monrovia. Most Negroes arc compressed Into their ghettos by poverty and consequent inability to purchase homes of their own and by the connivance of whito tract build ers, according to leaders of such groups as the Congress of Racial Equality (CORE and the Nation al Association for the Advance ment of Colored Peoplo (NAACP). While It Is conceded that the Los Angeles Negro may be better oft from the standgmint of school ing, housing and job opportunities than his counterpart in Alabama, there still Is a smouldering dis content. This was obvious at a civil rights meeting last Sunday which wis attended by some 30,000 per sons, mostly Negroes, at Wriglcy Field. Numerous speakers urged Divorces filed in circuit court Two new divorce cases were tiled this week In circuit court, and Judgo Robert H. Foley issued two decrees. Evan V. Pierce seeks a divorce from Mary J. Pierce, to whom ha was married Feb. 15, 1W8, in Reno, Nov. Thero are no chil dren.

They were married in Stevenson, Wash , and have a two-year-old boy. The plaintiff asks custody of the child, and (to monthly sup port Dorothy Garrison, 1U Congress Street, was given a divorce from John Garrison, also of Bend. They were married here Jan. 14, 1949. and have three children. Mrs. Garrison was given custody of the children and $45 monthly support for each. Evangeline E. Anslinger, Red mond, was granted a divorce from Joseph S. Anslinger, Eugene, win ning custody of tiie couple's three children. $35 monthly support fur each and attorney's fees. The marriage took place May ?2. r.62, in Franklin, Ind r moral and financial suppert for Birmingham, Ala., Negroes in their desegregation struggle but a common comment from the au dience was: "What about Los An geles?" Draws Applause Dr. Christopher Taylor, chair man of the local chapter of the NAACP, drew one of the biggest bursts of applause, at the three hour meeting when he said: "We are here to help the peo ple of Birmingham but I would be remiss in my duty if I did not mention certain problems we have in Los Angeles policy bru- Astronaut gets dunked he knew it was coming BOULDER, Colo. (UPD-Astro- naut Scott Carpenter got a dunk ing Thursday moments alter giv ing the dedication speech at Boulder's new municipal swim ming pool. The soaklng-wct spaceman said afterward he knew it was com ing and arranged for the three city officials who pushed him to get tossed into tha pool them selves. Carpenter had just finished his speech at the side of the pool, located in a city park named for him hy his hometown. Then Mayor John Holloway rose and said: "When you open a highway you cut a ribbon. When you are build ing a building you lay a corner stone. But in the' case of a pool, it seems to me the only way to dedicato it properly is for some one to go swimming. And it seems to me appropriate we be stow this honor on Scott Carpenter." Whereupon Holloway and two others pounced on Carpenter and i threw him In, fully clothed. What they didnt know was that Car penter had four cronies stationed nearby, and Holloway. Turner and Reich all got wet, too. Bend girl has high average Lee Ann Van Tassel, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Layle Van Tas sel, Boyd Acres, had the second highest grade-point average when Columbia Academy. Battle Ground. Wash., conducted grad uation exercises May 26. She has enrolled at Walla Walla College. Wash., and will be em ployed there during the summer months. , Eleanor Wiggins, a resident with the Jim Fellows family on Reed Market Road, also was graduated and will enroll at Walla Walla College. A third regional graduate Is Connie Van Tassel, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Hubert Van Tassel of Terrebonne. Columbia Academy is a second ary school supported by the con ferences of Seventh-Day Advent ist Churches. I ii mil him ii mm mi unman rpyi"r "t'H ' . ; Ut: ; I ! f tality, lack of housing, discrimin ation in employment ... we must not lot down in our fight in all walks of life for equal opportunity in Los Angeles." Police Chief William H. Parker denies any policy of brutality to ward Negroes or any other per sons but tiie charges are levied repeatedly not only by extremist groups such as (lie Black Muslims but also by leaders of the NAACP and CORE. Residential and classroom prob lems seem to be upppermost in the minds of Negro leaders. F. Daniel Gray, first vice chair man of the local CORE chapter, says these two problems are "un alterably tied up." "You've got school segregation as the result of neighborhood seg regation," he says. Denies Intent to Segregate Education officials such as Jack P. Crowther, superintendent of the Los Angeles school district, deny any Intent to segregate schools on the basis of race. "The doors of our schools are open to all students, based on an orderly procedure calling for the attendance of each student to a prescribed school." Because of geographical segre gation, there aro some 50 schools which aro virtually all Negro in enrollment. Gray and other CORE leaders feel that desegregation in fact cannot be accomplished under present state laws because penal ties are not stringent enough and litigation to force compliance is time-consuming and expensive. Problems of the Negro in South ern California have not been hel)ed by a large influx of new residents from the South who come here in the hope of escap ing segregation nnd its attendant miseries. Many of these migrant Negroes lack funds and arc not eligible for relief. Man caught at K.F. facing threat charges KLAMATH FALLS (UPl - A man was arrested Friday on a federal warrant Issued in Charleston, W. Va.. charging him with threatening the life of Presi dent Kennedy, state police re ported. The man was identified as Alex L. Holcomb, 30, Huntington. W. Va. State police, acting on a tip. arrested him In front of the local employment office. They said he formerly lived here. Frank Kenney, in charge of the Secret Service in Portland, said i the charge involved a letter mail i ed to the President from Hunting ton on May 11 "in which the text ! contained a threat against the ! President." Holcomb was being held in the ' city jail here nnd as c xpected to be taken to Portland for ar raignment next Monday. Kenney said.

The Navy said the photographs showed the Thresher apparently was in one piece with a split in Its side. Salvage of the subma rine Is extremely unlikely be cause of tho depth of its watery grave, a Navy spokesman said. Final preparations were being made on the deep-diving bathy scaph Trieste which will leave Boston for tho search scene Sun day to take more detailed pic tures of tiie ruptured hull of the doomed sub. The court of inquiry at Ports mouth, N.H., assembled volumes of evidence in an attempt to answer the question of what caused the $45 million nuclear attack submarine to sink. Thresher vanished 220 miles off the New England coast April 10, carrying 129 Navy men and ci vilian technicians to their deaths in history's worst submarine dis aster. The pictures were taken by the research vessel Conrad on Me morial Day. U.S. -Britain sign oil pact with Indonesia TOKYO (UPI) - U.S. and Brit ish oil companies signed an agree ment with Indonesia today provid ing for the Indonesian govern ment to take over their refineries with compensation under an in tricate payment formula. The agreement will permit the foreign companies to continue pumping Indonesian crude oil and exporting it to their customers abroad for 20 years. It apparently left Indonesia free to develop its own oil industry, based on the foreign-built refiner ies. But it appeared to remove the possibility that the country's oil output would suddenly be switched to Communist China, currently dependent on the Soviet Union for vital oil. Reunion plans being made Sp.ci.l to Tha Bulletin METOLIUS Plans were ncar ing completion this week for a re union of all classes of the former Metolius high school and their families to be held in conjunction w ith the annual Pioneer Picnic on July 14 at the Cove State Park.

Second Pamela Galloway, Sandra Ross, Strike called m Argentina BUENOS AIRES (UPI) Fed eral police armed with subma chine guns and tear gas bombs patroled the streets of Argentine cities today to prevent possible violence during a one-day nation wide general strike. The work stoppage called by the General Labor Confederation (CGT) crippled train, bus and taxi services in Buenos Aires. It closed shops, theaters, bars and restaurants and prevented the distribution of slimmed - down newspapers. The CGT called the general strike to climax a "week of pro test" against government "aus terity", non-payment of govern ment workers' salaries and im prisonment of opposition politi cians and unionists. Federal police, who deployed riot cars in downtown shopping streets throughout the week, sum moned reinforcements Thursday night. Soldiers with slung car bines and military police guarded railroad stations, water and elec tric plants and military installa tions. Geneva appeal made by U.S. GENEVA (UPD-The United States appealed to Communist dis armament negotiators today to talk sense instead of demanding one-sided concessions from the West. U.S. negotiator Charles C. Stclle told the 17-nation disarmament conference Soviet demands that the United States remove nuclear arms from foreign bases and de nuclearize the Mediterranean Sea are unfair and illogical. He said tho Russians "seek in unilateral fashion to harass and obstruct Western defensive moves taken to keep NATO modern and up to dale in the face of the mammoth Soviet military effort." "We can iust imagine the re action of the Soviet Union if we were to propose ... a nuclear free zone comprising the full territory of all states bordering on tne CasDian Sea." Stelle said. "Each side can think up such unbalanced schemes, but we in the West arc sensible and respon sible enough not to burden our conference and tne worm puDuc with such nonsense. "Let us cet on with realistic measures that have some chance of General acceptance." Speaking before Stelle, Soviet negotiator Scmyon K. Tsarapkin renewed Soviet proposals for a non - aggression pact between N ATO and the Warsaw Pact. The West repeatedly has rejected this idea as being divorced irom dis armament coals. Negotiators here welcomed tne new Western attempt to break the nuclear test ban deadlock but were not optimistic about its chances of success wnn me Soviets. BANS SOME TOURISTS FLIMWELL, England (ITD Fred Springlctt has banned tour ists who come here on one-day visits from entering his bar. His reason: "They are noisy, rude and often brine their own beer." Tha Bulletin, Alan Shepard Jr. still has orbital ambitions... waiting CAPE CANAVERAL (UPI) -Hie garland of a space hero's fame once hung around his shoul ders, but that was two years ago. Today, Alan B. Shepard Jr. is a dissatisfied man with a burning ambition. His hopes range into the future, to the day with the United States launches its next man Into space on the orbital path that started with John Glenn and ran through 22.9 orbits with L. Gordon Coop er Jr. When the next rocket blasts from a firing pad at Cape Canav oral, It is a cinch that Al Shep ard will be aboard. He already has been promised the role as i America's next orbiting astronaut. ! nut in the meantime, the slender Navy commander simply j must wait. And waiting has never been one of Al Shepard s strong j points. Even now, those who know i him realize he is mentally pacing ; the floor in almost grim, certainly impatient, expectation. Case A Paradox ' Some say the wait already has been too long so long, in fact, that Shepard's case is something of a paradox: He made this nation's first, and perhaps most dangerous be cause it was the first, spaceflight on May S, 1961, when he soared more than 100 miles aboard a Redstone rocket on an "up-and-down" sub-orbital ride. But the name of America's first space hero has been overshadowed in New pontiff's starts with Pope's death VATICAN CITY (UPI) The machinery for selecting a new pope will go into motion at once in the event of the death of Pope John XXIII. The first step is the official ver ification of the death of the pon tiff by the cardinal chamberlain, Benedetto Cardinal Aloisl Masella. He then officially notifies the vic ar general of Rome, Clemente Body of Hudson girl recovered OURAY, Colo. (UPD-The fro zen body of 11-year-old Pauline Hudson, buried under tons of snow March 3 in an avalanche that also killed her father and sister, was discovered at the foot of Red Mountain Pass Thursday. Pauline's uncle, Vernon Hudson, and her grandfather, Floyd Hud son, both of Ouray, discovered the body. Searchers had found the other victims, Rev. Marvin Hudson, 39, and Amelia Hudson, 17, in March, but organized searching for Pauline was post poned about April 1. The two relatives kept up a daily vigil, anticipating that Paul ine's body would be washed down a stream when the snow melted. She was located about 20 feet from where her father's car was found. Her sister's body had been found next to the car. The car was parked alongside the road up Red Mountain when the snowslide hit on a Sunday morning. The Rev. Mr. Hudson, a Congregational minister from Ou ray, was putting on tire chains and the two girls were Inside. The Hudsons were on their way to Silverton, Colo., where the min ister conducted weekly church services. Mrs. Hudson and three other children stayed home.

CZECH ECONOMY SAGS VIENNA. Austria (UPI) The recent two-day session of the Czechoslovakian Communist party presidium revealed the critical state of that nation's economy, according to Informed Eastern European sources.

There are a lot of things Shep ard is not. He isn't the "All Amer ican boy" type of John Glenn, nor the warm and human breed personified by Walter M. Schirra Jr., nor the fun-loving kind such as Gordon Cooper. He is, however, coldly efficient and confident where there are grounds for confidence ... a man who seems at times almost devoid of emotions, who never seems to become frightened or jittery. To some, this adds up to a de scription of Al Shepard as an "ice cube" or a "human computing machine." These also could be the quali ties of what might be called the "perfect astronaut" or, as one put it, the "superastronaut." selection Cardinal Mircara, who announces the passing of the pontiff to the people of Rome. The chamberlain then directs that word be sent to all cardinals to come to the Vatican to elect the new pope at a consistory that must be held within 15 to 18 days after the death of a pope. Speculation about the successor to Pope John has centered around 12 cardinals, with four of them mentioned as favorites. An unwritten rule is that the pope be an Italian. There has not been a non-Italian pontiff since Hadrian VI of Holland who reigned for less than two years beginning In 1522. Romans then were so incensed that they stoned the cardinals who had elected the "foreign" pope. Another long-standing rule Is that the pope must be a member of the College of Cardinals. Al though all pontiffs since Urban VI in 137it have been cardinals, the oretically any male Catholic even a married layman could be elected pope, the only condition being thai he would have to take the holy orders after his election. Heading the list of favorites to succeed Pope John XXIII are: Giovanni Battista Cardinal Montini, the 65-year-old archbish op of Milan. Peter Gregory Cardinal Aga gianian, 67, the Armenian-born head of Catholic missionary ac tivities. Giovanni Cardinal Urbanl, 63, who succeeded Pope John as pa triarch of Venice. Giacomo Cardinal Lercaro, the 71-year-old, Communist battling archbishop pf Bologna.
