The greatest wo man diver In history Is gamely fight ing her way back into sports after an attack of paralysis had left her an apparently hopeless cripple. The name Is Georgia Coleman, and It'a usually the only name heard when nominations are opened for all time queen of the springboards. The records show that in addition to various other titles, Georgia won the high board, low board and plain and fancy high diving championships in both the 1828 and 1932 Olympics. And while sh recovers she Is get ting into business, manufacturing a new kind of fulcrum for spring boards. Her Illness haa taken plenty of money for doctor and hospltsl bills. It waa last Thanksgiving dsy that Georgia waa stricken with complete paralysis of her arms and legs while teaching swimming at a swanky Santa Barbara hotel Taken to Los Angeles, where her mother lives, she waa bedridden for months and even her life was despaired of. Then, without physicians' prompt ings, she undertook to walk. A few faltering steps resulted. She tried to swim and had to be rescued by Fred cady, ner coach. But she persevered. I can walk pretty well," the 36 year old diver says. "I find turning around quickly or standing still Ir, one spot most difficult. "The tips of my fingers and toes still feel numb. For Instance, I can't tell the difference between a quarter and a dime by Just feeling them But I've come a long way since No. vember and I'm going to do better." Miss Coleman now swims almost perfectly and plays golf and bad minton. The coordination required for championship diving naturally Is out of the question Just now. The fulcrum, to the Improvement of which she Is devoting herself, Is the bar -on which a diving board rest. Under diving rules it msy be adjusted according to the perform er's "taste to regulate the spring or "tension" of the board. In most cases thl la done bjUurnlng a wheel with th foot Just before the dive. Says Phil Patterson, former pro fessional diving champion, who la collaborating with her: "Most fulcrum work so hsrd a diver often Just ha to accept what ever adjustment he finds. I've seen people fell off the board trying to stand on one foot and turn the wheel with the other. 'Miss Coleman's device will oper ate by an easily turned band lever, with an Indicator showing the ad justment to a traction of an Inch. A more expensive model will operate by electrlo push buttons. "Th fulcrum will make for bet ter diving, a th performer can get exactly the tension he wants, even varying it with different typea of dive If desired." Juvenile Stars in Sunday Show L 1 - Freddie Bartholomew and Mickey Rooney, the two outstanding Juvenile stars In pictures today, are teamed again for the first times since "Cap tains Courageous" In "Lord Jeff," coming to the Crnterlan theater Sunday for ft three-day run. The story deals with a boy passed off as a bogus nobleman by the crooks who adopted htm as an orphan. His arrest and detention in a boy's training school, where he soon learns that high-handed meth ods are not In favor with the other boys snd eventually places him tn the right road to manhood.

Continu ing the discussions In the confer ence group on cooperative purchas ing at the 14th annual American Institute of Cooperation. Ervln E. King, master of the Washington State Grange, described last week the services of the Washington Grange cooperative wholesale. Originally organized to render a buying service for the 80-odd stores operated by the Washington Grange in 1919, the scope of Its operations has gradually changed to the aup plylng of commodities which are most In demand by farmers and which offer greatest possibility in savings to patrons, according to Mr. King. "The early Grange stores and ware houses supplied the needs of their many patrons In groceries., reeds, fertilizers, seeds, fuel, and in some Instances dry goods." he stated. "Many of these stores discontinued aa chain stores developed, the mar gin narrowed on many of. the items handled, and credit difficulties de veloped. "In 1931 the Grange cooperative wholesale first became Interested In the cooperative purchase of gasoline ana oils. Again a few subordinate Granges had formed buying clubs and had been buying these products to a limited extent, but no real centralized effort was put forth until the wholesale signed the first con tract to furnish Its member with gasoline." - The present organisation. Mr. King reported, consists of 45 units In Washington and nine In northern Idaho. "Cooperative purchasing has completely revolutionized the mar keting of gasoline, oils and grease to rsrmers In these states and Ore gon, and there are farmer-controlled supply statlona serving Grangers throughout the Pacific northwest." he said. . We have continued our closed service, which requires membership in the orange. The Grange has, as one of Its primary objectives, the teaching of cooperation. Since these groups meet every two weeks, we have a golden opportunity to keep the fundamentals before the mem bers constantly. We have found that Grange membership gives any co operative organization a good start." Victor McLaglen In "The Devil's Party" On Rialto's Screen Victor McLaglen turns In one- of the best Jobs of acting tn his long and notable screen career In 'The Devil's Party" which began Its three day stay at the Rlalto theater last night. There are moments when his por trayal of Marty Mnlone, the big. stormy hearted Irishman who strays from the straight and narrow path and redeems himself by a great sac rifice, approaches his screen picture of that other embattled Celt, Gypo Nolan In "The Informer." "The Devil's Party" tells of a gang of five kids from . New York'a Hell's Kitchen who grow- up to posi tions of power In the city. One of them becomes s priest. Two Join the police force. Marty, sfter taking a reformatory rap for hla pals aa a kid. becomes a night club operator and the girl of the gang sings In his floor show. Gradually aU five become enmeshed In a web of ter rlfto danger till the explosive de. nouement blows things wide open. "The Wife of Oeneral Ling." a mystery based on the current war tn China, plays as the added feature with "The Devil's Party," at the Rlalto through Thursday. Fleet's In I PORTLAND, July 20.

( UP) Th economic metamorphosis that has become sp parent In Yugoslavia In the last one or two years Is considered Important not only for that country, but, in the light of present rearmament pro grams, also, to all of Europe. From an agrarian country whose economle sages for years have been advising tt to rely on-livestock rats lng as chief pursuit, Yugoslavia Is considered to have become a state with a most promising Industrial future. This change was occasioned by the discovery of mining engineers that Yugoslavia Is mineraloglcally one of Europe's richest countries. After the results of the assays were made known, the exploitation of these mineral resources was begun with the um of French and German capital. This action was carried nut with such thoroughness that today Yugoslavia already ranks third In the world production of manganese are and fourth In the world product ljn of bauxite. In Europe. Yugoslavian production of copper takes first, place, Iron Deposit Developed. The enormous Iron ore deposits of this country are being developed An idea can be gained of their magni tude by citing the fact that in LjubJja mountain In Bona! a alone there are veins containing 1,000.000,000 ton? lying near the surface. A year wjo the Oerman firm of Krupp built. ' stats-owned stsel mills st Zenlca in Bosnia. Payment for this project will take form of deliveries of iron ore to Germany. Xtsly recently alto has tried to obtain ore through a credit clearing arrangement, but Belgrade has Bho-vn lack of Interest In anything exop: cold cash. Yugoslavia also has begun to derive advantages from the ncw-founn wealth. Iti heavy Industry, particu larly that connected with armaments. has been expanding rapidly. Today It produce Its pwn locomotives and construction steel, armor plate and ammunition. Plane Construction Ahead. Airplane construction now sur paasej that of any two other Balkan countries. Yugoslavia. In short, has found itself In the position nuw sought by other European nations of having almost a self-sufficient war Industry. The country now needs only to Import heavy guns, and If plans for the construction of a gvn factory at Zenlca are brought to frul tlon. this defect will soon be rem edled. The production of textiles has .lot lagged, being trebled In the last four years. Imports of raw cotton were doubled and Imports of manufactured cotton products were cut In half in the course of the last year. Well-Informed quarters have linked the scrambling of foreign capital for investment in Yugoslavia and the sudden desire evinced by certain countries for "Improved economic and political relationships with Yugo slavia" with the discovery of tint country'a wealth In Just those met als, as bauxite and manganese, which are Indispensable to the manufacture of armaments. COURT WILL RECESS DURING NEXT MONTH There will be no sessions of the circuit court during the month of August. Two cases remain on the calendar In Jackson county and one tn Josephine county and these will be disposed of by Circuit -IucIra Nor ton before the end of the month. Both the civil ond criminal rase dockets are practically cleared. Ses sions will be resumed early In Sep tember. Missing Man Found In Submerged Car PORTLAND, July 20.
