- ilEDFORD MXL TRIBUNE, BEDFORD, OREGON. MONDAY, AUGUST 15, 1932. PAGE THREE Z ED Lowell Zundel, who la circulating petitions In his own behalf as an Independent candidate for sheriff, at the November election, said this morning, that he had "secured more than 300 signatures." Under the Ore gon law, 263 are required. Most of the signatures were from this city and Ashland: Zundel did not know when he would file the petitions with the county clerk. In the event that the petitions are signed sufficiently, which now seems highly probable, Zundel will oppose Gordon Schermer horn, regular Democratic primary nominee, and Everett Beeson, the regular Republican primary nominee. It la reported there will be two more Independent candidates for sheriff, and that an Independent can didate for county clerk is In the off ing, to oppose Louis Ulrich, the Demlcratic nominee and George Car ter, the Republican nominee. Tf all the reports of "independent" candidates materialize, the fall race will be almost as much an epidemic of office seekers, as the spring vote.

(Associated Press Photo) INVENTS X-RAY Invention of a new type x-ray tube, which may revolutionize medical and Industrial science, has been made at the University of California, Berke ley, by David Harold Sloan, 26-year-old teaching fellow there, who Is the son of Mr. and Mrs. D. O. Sloan of 3015 East Main street, this city. An nouncement of the tube was made last week In all of the leading Cali fornia papers, which also carried pic tures of him and the Invention. Young Sloan received hl bache lor's and master's degree at Wash ington State college, Pullman, in 1028 and 1929, and then spent two years In the research laboratories of the General Eleetrlo company at Schenectady, N. Y., having received a two-year scholarship when leaving Pullman. According to the reports, In the radiation laboratories of the univer sity, the tube has been developed producing x-rays with an energy of approximately one million volts, while using only 15,000 volts. Two Ashland couplea today filed suit for divorce In circuit court. They were Ernest L. Lusk against Louise Lusk, and Eleanor P. Perkins against George P. Perkins. Attorney M. O. Wllklna filed both actions. In the Lusk suit the wife Is charg ed with cruelty, "Jealousy and act ing pouty," and further alleges that the defendant once slapped him while driving an auto on an Ashland street. In the Perkins action, the wife charges the husband with cruelty, and names as a co-respondent, a wo man named "Grace." Custody of a minor child la asked In each action. GINRER IS JAILED FOR FAST DRIVING Wallace D. Ginger, a fruit packer, driving a California licensed auto, and glvliig his residence as the River side Apartments Is held in the coun ty Jail, charged with reckless driv ing. State police allege that Ginger, re turning from a dance at Jacksonville Saturday night drove in and out of traffic, at a high rate of speed, and traveled SO miles an hour within the city limits of Medford. He Is scheduled to appear before Justice of the Peace H. D. Reed at Gold Hill this afternoon. Communications The Landlord's Side To the Editor: I see a whole lot In your paper about keeping OJt these here aocaiied California people that come here to work In the fruit snd giving the work to the local unempJoyed, which Is all fine and dandy as far as It goes. But there is another angle to It that no one seems to have thought of. There is also the class of us poor, benighted, exploited, hard-run pro perty owners who happen to have a few places to rent to these same Cali fornia fruit people and the business people around town who have stuff to sell, and, oh, boy, this extra money that these same California fruit peo ple spfnd with us Is sure a God-send to us; because, you see, we have taxes to pay and street assessments, and they have to be paid 100 percent, too (try to get out of it once): and then we have to pay all of our bills, too, because we have property, and all they have to do is bring a law suit sealnst us and take our property away from us to pay the bills, and then there ara lots of other thinns too that nobody tries to find out about. So, you a see, that the fact that these same California fruit peo ple come and rent our empty houses for about three months helps us like everything. GEO. XVERSON. NEW FOR FALL.
