PAGE EIGHT mtdford mail tribune, medfokd. orego, Tuesday, February 7, 1933.- Ti SPRINGING UP IN RUSSIAN WASTES Vast Canal Project In Little , Known , Region Between ' Arctic Ocean, and White Sea Everyone at Work 1 r NEW YORK, Feb. 7. (AP) From that dim region between the Arctlo ocean and the White sea, where there la daylight only two and a half months of the year, a student of Russian life today brought back stories of vast mushroom towns springing up overnight In "unox-plored"- wastes. , Dr. Joshua Kunltz, former profes sor of Russian languages at City col lege, also told how 100,000 prisoners are carving out a canal as big as that In Panama wftlch they expect to fin ish by May 1. 'Eighty per cent of the population is made up of what were known as Kulaks -peasants who through pid.ty or extraordinary Industry or both have grown rich," he said "The government, wanting to equai Iw matters In the villages, sent them up there. Build f(H Kutnre. "Here's a new country,' It said to them. "It's y. unpolled. It's rich. Build your Aomc , work, you can as sure you- own future and your chll- drens .future.' "W,hat amazed me was the way thy took It. Naturally, uprooted at the start they were as resentful as anyone In Russia. But I found they caught the spirit. They see the grandeur of the thing." Those to whom be talk, Dr. Kunltz eald, had no desire to leave the once desolate region. The New Yorker went to Khibog orsk, a town of 13,000 that has "mushroomed" up within a year, and to Murmansk, even farther north, a port on the Arctlo ocean. Industrial towns, he said, are arising overnight. . 1 Study Northland. "Their schools . are better - than those elsewhere in Russia. In that new town of Khlbogorak they have a cinema and clvlo center. In Mur mansk the government maintains an academy of science to study possibil ities of the north. Their publlo bath Is a wonder. Tou go In, leave your clothing for the laundry, and in 80 minutes you receive it back, washed and Ironed., "The canal Is materializing a dream of 300 years. The czars saw its need, commercially and strategically, but i never got nearer to building It than sending explorers to the Arctic' Dr. Kuntlz said even the prisoners working on the canal "murderers, robbers and thugs" have "caught sometmng or the spirit of adven ture .' The cans will supplement the slngio track railroad to Leningrad and will carry up supplies and carry dock pnoapnates, aluminum and lumber.

In the first contest of a four- game series here tonight. The only hope for a championship title for the Staters, lies in taking at least three of the four Oregon games, Coach Slats Oill believes, as Idaho, yet to be met, Is considered a serious threat. Olll Is faced with the problem of retaining first place in the conference race and at the same time keeping his players In the best possible phys ical condition. The players, altho In good shape after defeating University of Washington in two games, appear ed tired when they returned to the campus yesterday. T FOR FRUIT FEE T I The suit for money of W. H. Nor- cross against Howard A. Hill and others, is scheduled on the court cal endar to start upon the completion of the damage suit of Lois Hill against the Merrick Motor Inn, now underway, and expected to require the greater part of the day. The Norcross action Is based upon a promissory note for 91000, collec tion of which Is sought. Norcross, an orchard 1st of the Central Point dis trict alleges .that L. A. Banks, Howard A Hill, o. B. Morrow, Leon D. Harris, C H Taylor, and George Schumacher, In June 1931, signed a promissory note for el 000, upon which 10052 was paid on the principal and 78.11 in Interest. Norcross further alleges that Hill and the other defendants authorized L. A. Banks, as agent, to deduct three-quarters of a cent per box for pears sold by Banks for them, and apply the same to the note. Norcross alleges that the deduc- tlons were made from pear shipments but not applied In the settlement of the note. Norcross Is represented by Attorney Don R. Newbury; the defendants other than L. A. Banks, by Attorney Porter J, Nelr. . -4- REGULAR LINEUP FOR MEDFORD IN E WITH G. P. SCHOLL EXPERT O. A. Meeker announced today that a root comrort expert from the Chi sago staff of Dr. Wm. M.

(AP) Joe Reno of New Orleans, was award ed a victory over Hal Helbert of St Helens, Oro., In the main event or the wrestling card here last night when Helbert was unable to return to the mat after each had taken a fall. Renp weighed 108 and Helbert 160. Helbert won the first fall In 37 minutes with a wrlstlock. Struggling for the second fall, the two men tum bled over the top rope and onto the uncovered floor. Both were knocked out, but Reno returned before he was counted out, Rex Mobley. 164, defeated Hal Cox, 169, two fall out of three In the semi. wlndup. Art O'Reilly, 145, won over Louie Welkum, 147, in the opener when he took one fall, ion The same Medford Tiger lineup will start against Grants Pass here Friday night that played against the Chenv awa Indians Saturday, Coach Darwin K. Burgher said this morning. Brown has regained his sea legs, Burgher said, and will be sufficiently recovered from his attack of the flu to play full time Friday. Scbeel and Brown will start at guard, with Harris center and White and either Kunzman or Luman at for. ward, Burgher s&ld. Burgher is work ing his men hard on basket shooting this weok, the noticeably weak spot in the Tiger game lost Saturday, and will be able to put away all the crip pies and more of the long shots than they did against Chemawa. Although not exactly over-confi dent, the Tigers feel certain of taking the Cavemen Friday night by a com fortable margin, as they previously defeated them on the Orants Pass floor by the score of 33-17, Ashland high school also defeated the Cave- men by a slightly larger score, which makes the fans feel Medford may have a tussle with Ashland later on IN The state highway commission will hold a publlo hearing tomorrow at Ashland, on the Ashland unit of the proposed Pacific Highway Improve ment from Talent south. The hearing win be attended by members of the state highway commission, Ashland city council, and property owners along the right-of-way over which there Is now a controveray.

Will Hays Is the spokesman of organized Hollywood, Conrad Nagel goes around between acting duties building up good will for the In dustry, but the tcreen's unofftc 'al ambassador to the peopl els can-von-mouthed foe t Brown. The u b 1 q u t tous comedian is here, there, and evrerywhere when things are olng on. Screen iters are always being beset to make public ap pearances in b3- half of this or that most of them refuse, whenever possible, but not Joe E. . In his Docket he carries a handril of honorary memberships in olubsj from coast to coast, conferred upon him during his travels, and each ac- 1 knowledged with the same effulgent grin of genuine appreciation.

He Is constantly serving as Jude of something or other. 'Ho order too small, none too large," seems to be his working prin ciple. At football games, et all pub llo gatherings, he is always in evi dence, swaps wisecracks with the crowd, waves his hat and grins bis grin. The other day he presented the prize cup to the winner of a beard growing contest at U. C. L. A., and oa the same occasion was made an hon orary member of the "Blue ' club, athletic organization there. Later in the week he became an honorary fireman of the Los Angeles department, and other duties on is calendar included addressing a Boy Scout meeting, toast mastering at two football team banquets, entertaining on two occasions at veterans' his pital, officiating at a masquers revel and opening the six-day bicycle races.

JUDGE CANON IN RACE FOR LAND OFFCEPLACE (Continued on Page Eight) at least ,40 a day, according to Ohlsf Clerk Drager. The entire bill for stamps in the house lsst term amounted to $2900, he said. It may be more this time, due to the increase 'In postage rates. However, under the new ruling adopted this year, separate bills are not .sent to each constituent who sake for them, but are sent to cer tain centers, where all the people within a given area may come and read the bills over at will. This will tend to cut the stamp bill to some extent. The poet-natal life of a bill Is a hectic one. As soon after birth as possible, it is Introduced by Its papa before the house (or senate, depend ing upon the papa's place of legis lative business snd the nature of the bill). Immediately after Its Intro duction and first reading. It Is sent to the printers. Then it comes back for second reading. The speaker of the house, with his tongue in his cheek, says "Uhuh, I've got your number, young 'un, you be long In such and such a committee. You're a little bit raw yet. and we're not sure we want you. We'll let those boys decide whether or not you're worth our consideration." Here the bill U apt to be torn apart and put together again, pounded into hash and turned out baloney. If If s thought by the committee to be good baloney. It Is reported favorably, if not. the poor little thing Is killed and forgotten. If It Is lucky enough to come out of committee, It Is placed on each member's desk for study. It Is left here at least three days. Then It gets the third reading and comes up for final passage. In case an amendment Is made, this Is sent up to the committee on en grossed snd enrolled bills, and the amended portion engrossed in the bill. If the bill bss a substitute, this substitute la obliged to go througn the entire original routine.
