Walters, a conserva tive Democrat and a self-made millionaire, today was appointed to the U. S. Senate succeeding tile late Estes Kefauver.

Frank Clement who took time out from the Southern Governors Conference to return here and make the announcement. Walters, who parlayed a team of mules into a giant roadbuild- mg firm, is a close friend of Clement, but his politics are more conservative and described by friends as similar to those of Sen. Harry F. Byrd, D-Va. Kefauver, the coonskin-capped Tennesseean who twice sought in vain to become president, was re garded one of the most liberal of Southern Democrats.

The Bulletin, Tuesday, August 20, 1963 i MTV : V GRATEFUL Mrs. Lester W. Houk, 1015 Brooks Street. i glad Red Cross blood was available when she needed it. She knows value of giving blood it saved her life It doesn't take long to give a pint of blood, and it may save a me. Mrs. Lsier w. hour, iuio Brooks Street, knows. The Red Cross Bloodmobile will be in Bend Wednesday in the base ment of the Elks Temple, from 1:15 to 5:45 p.m. The quota is 200 pints. The population of Bend is something over 11.700. Sp by ace leased WetN i le s Lease by Wetle's Department Store of the north half of the Benson Building, now owned by O. H. Summers and Al Schatz, was announced today by John and Bob Wetle. A door into the leased quarters will be made, from the mezzanine floor of the Wetle store. At present, the additional space will primarily be used by the Welle store for storage purposes, to clear space where a fully equipped ski shop will be set up. Equipment tor the new snop is already arriving. , Although the space leased from Summers and Schatz, operators of the Skyline Steak House, will pres ently be used only for storage, it mav ovonhtallv fit into store ex pansion plans, it was pointed out, i rS it.' ri it. I f Sometimes, the Bloodmobile fans to make its quota. It may be because there are not enough people like Mrs. Houk, who knows the value of Red Cross blood. In July of 1962, Mrs. Houk was rushed by ambulance to St. Charles Memorial Hospital, where it was discovered that an artery in her head had ruptured. She was in the hospital two weeks, and four pints of Red Cross blood were used in trans fusions. Today, the cause of the ruptured artery remains un known. But it is known that the blood transfusions saved her life. Red Cross volunteers have had difficulty recruiting donors for to morrow's visit. Many "regulars" seem to be out of town. Telephone calls go unanswered. For many people, giving Red Cross blood Is part of the Ameri can way of life. Some of these people have friends or relatives who might have died, without lifc Bivins blood when they needed it. This time, it may be up to the first-timers to carry the vistory. Once they . have given blood, they want to stay on as members of the team. Appointments are recommend ed, but not required. Drop-ins are welcome, and there is adequate personnel for speedy processing. Wanted: Two hundred Bend rcs- idents who don't like funerals Board tells Poller lo seek more oflice space in Bend By Ha Grant Hopper Bulletin Staff Wrlttr The Deschutes County Rural School board, meeting Monday evening, looked into the question of additional space for the coun ty school superintendent's staff, and discussed several applica tions for school district changes. No action was taken. Superintendent David Potter Eastern Oregon fires mopped up By United Pra International Fire crews from the Bureau of ! Land Management today mopped up two blazes that burned 8,500 acres of grass and sagebrush in Eastern Oregon before being con trolled Monday. One of the fires, a 4.000-acre range fire west of Huntington in Baker County, destroyed f i v e miles of fence, a cow camp bunk- nuuse anu a sueep Mieutiug sucii. Damage was estimated at $5,000. The second blaze burned 4.500 acres north of Vale in Malheur County. The BLM said both were man-caused and broke out late Sunday. Meanwhile, state fire crews bat tled nine small fires Monday. The largest was a 4V4-acre blaze near Rogue River. All nine were man - caused and have been brought under control. The U.S. Forest Service report ed 16 small fires in Oregon and Washington in the 24 hours end ing at 10 a.m. today. All but five were set by lightning. Zoo maternity watch resumed PORTLAND (UPI) The watch has resumed in the maternity ward of Portland Zoo's elephant house. Zoo officials say the time is near for Tuy Hoa and Pet. They predicted the same tiling months ago but insist they can't be too far off this time. Electrocardio gram tests show the baby ele phants are alive and kicking, ac cording to Zoo veterinarian Mat Oiew Maberry. Packy, the first elephant born in the United States in 43 years. was born in the zoo April 14, 1962. The second baby, Me-Tu, came along a few months later. STROUT'S AUTOMOTIVE Fe.turei . . . AUTO PARTS and MACHINES 168 Greenwood Ph. 382-2442 '-As W:- told the board that he may have to put a desk for Dean Nichols, the new curriculum consultant, "out in the hall." The remark was apparently facetious. Nich ols arrived yesterday, to take up his duties. These include super vising the county school film li brary. The superintendent was advis ed to seek the help of board members who live in Bend, and try to locate office space outside the courthouse for Nichols and the films and books. A report is to be made at the next meeting. Only $900. budgeted by the rural board, is available for ex tra space. That would be $100 a month for the school year. A re quest for an additional $900 was refused by the County Budget Committee this spring. Discussion indicated that the board has reversed its former stand that Uie superintendent's entire staff and all the equipment should be moved to Redmond. Potter said that he and the two j secretaries could remain on the j top floor of the courthouse. Quarters there are provided by the county cost-free, as required by law. The County Court, at budget time, did not feel obligated to pro vide rent money for space outside the courthouse. The proposed move to Red mond has lost popularity, appar ently, because there are no new developments in the projected plan to supply the films to Jef ferson and Crook counties on a rental basis, although, Potter said, both counties are still inter ested. Had he moved to Redmond, he indicated, the plan might have progressed further. Potter said that there are cer tain advantages to the courthouse location, particularly proximity to the offiqes of the county clerk and the assessor. He said that from January 15 through June, there are 365 film check-outs to the Bend district, and 465 to all others. The ujagc is probably about 50-50, however, he said, because in many cases, each film used by the Bend dis trict was shown in several schools before being returned. Requests of G. O. Perry and Billy Bafford, for inclusion in the Bend school district, were flis- cussed. These families are now in the Tumalo grade and Redmond Union Hum School districts. Bradley D. Fancher, the rural board attorney, was present to ex- plain new laws covering such aiv nexationa, Including a provision for a transfer of valuations be tween the districts concerned JACK & Jill Villi KINDERGARTEN A.

The clause would eliminate a 30-day waiting requirement on the ordinance which is to receive fi nal reading at Wednesday's regu lar meeting. It was requested Monday by contractor Al Bell, who told Uie board he would lose a substantial sum of money un less the ordinance becomes im mediately valid. Bell petitioned the zone change May 9. this year. He needs it to construct apartment units on property between E. Fourth and Fifth Streets and Aldcn and Biu-n-sidc Avenues. The request change is from an R-3 (single - family dwelling) to R-4 (multiple-family dwelling) zone. The contractor's petition has gained commission approval, but only after a series of delays caused by meeting postponements and other red tape. On Wednesday the board will determine whether a shortage of rental facilities exists, and, if so, whether the clause would bo justi fiable. Dugan given convention post Lester M.
