!MEDFORD MS3U TRTBTJNE, MEDFORD. OREGON, FRIDAY, XTJGTJST 19, 1932. T PXGE FOURTEEN PROF. PICCARD TO lip MAKE ASCENT IN NORTHPOLE AREA (Continued trora raga One.) ARE QUARANTINED SATURDAY IS BARGAIN DAY IN MANN'S BIG READY TO WEAR DEPARTMENT! Two transient Indigent on from Idaho and the other from Utah under guarantlne for small po In a North Front street home and. ac cording to Dr. 0, I. Drummond, coun ty health officer, are In Illegal pos session, of local labor cards. They arrived here by auto August 3 and two days later obtained labor cards. reputedly signed by two county tax payers as required by law. One gave his residence as JacksonTlllfand the other as this city. The county Is providing food and medicine. One of the quarantined men has a wife and four children whom, the authorities aald, he In tended to bring here as aoon as pos sible. They planned to obain work in the fruit. County Commissioner Victor Bur sell said this morning that all local labor cards obtained by misrepresen tation would be revoged as fast as found. The unemployment bureau and state police are sow checking up on a number of cases. People form erly were registered for local cards as fast as they came, as It was Im possible to determln their actual resi dence. It Is suspected that transients have thus Imposed upon local labor and an earnest effort will be made to cor rect the situation, It Is stated. It Is known that a number of Callfornlans have local labor cards on the claim of long residence. County authorities believe that word has been passed along the high ways of the northwest that Jackson county Is "a soft spot," causing a mild Influx of Indigents. Klamath county this week adopted a policy of "one meal for transients before departing and work for t,hat." Upstate counties are also reported as "hard" and unsympathetic to "auto tramps." The county court, In Jus tice to Its own people, will do the same thing at an early date, It Is declared. DENIED BY WIFE Mrs. Helen V. Barnum yesterday, through her attorney, Charles W.

The Instruments, ss well as the gondola Itself, were taken last night from Cavatlaro Dl Monaanrano, where he landed, to the Italaln aviation school here. Prof. Plccard aald they bad not been harmed by the Jar when the gondola hit the ground, although the gondola Itself was dent ed a little by the Impact. Undoubtedly, he ssld, they would reveal very Interesting Information, especially on the effect of cosmic rays that far above the earth's aurface. the study of which was ttie principal reason hs braved the stratosphere a second time. Science First From the minute he crawled out of the gondola yesterday, shsky after the sudden drop from below zero temperatures to sizzling heat, the professor was all the calm aclentlst. All his movements have been cool and methodical. Even as, with his companion, Ma Cosyns, the .calmly aat down on the ground and ate a can of peaches after his landing while excitement buzzed In the crowds that gathered around him, so he calmly superin tended the hauling of the balloon and Instruments here last night. He ate a commonplace supper at a little hotel and went to bed Imme diately. It was almost nightfall when they left the spot where they landed. Their every move had been watched by crowds of peasants, to whom It was an extraordinary occurrence. They do not read newspapers and had no notion what the whole thing meant. World Strange From Afar They, reached their greatest height, Prof. Plccard said, three hours after they took off yesterday morning from Dubendorf, Switzerland. From that vantage point of ten miles, the world was a atrange looking place. Landmarks were indistinct and the maps were of little value. Only the large lakes Indicated where they were. He recognized Lake Oarda, 13 miles northwest of Caval laro Dl Monzanrano, and decided to land there, but It took two hours to bring the balloon down. The balloon was recognized by many people In the larger towns and when hs finally headed toward land scores of automobiles followed him. Some of the Instruments were knocked off their bsses when the balloon landed, he said, but appar ently were not damaged. Her said they functioned remarkably well In the extreme cold. Rays Like Rain He and Max Cosyns, his compan ion on the flight, slept for 11 hours last night and when they arose this morning there was a batch of con gratulatory telegrams, among them one from the king and queen of the Belgians. Prof. Plccard said Cosyns did all the observation of cosmic rays dur ing the flight, he himself giving all his attention to navigation of the balloon. - - The rays, he said. Increased In In tensity as the altitude of the balloon Increased, until "they were like rain on a tin roof." He was too busy with navigation to observe his own sensations, but ha recalled that the view from above the Alps was Indescribably beautiful. From the gondola they could aee the Tyrrohenlan and Adriatic aeas and the Italian lake, all at the same time. It waa difficult to follow the map, he said, because the windows of the gondola are so small. A great crowd outside the hotel cheered this morning until the aero nauts appeared on the balcony.
