POLIO VICTOR
By Sam Jackson
(AP Feature Service Writer)
LOS ANGELES. 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

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.

TALKS
BY COOPERATIVES
PULLMAN. Wash. (Spl.) 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.

ALTER STATUS
OF
Balkan Nation Becomes
Powerful Through Indus
trialization Is Turning
Out Many Products Now
BELGRADE. ( 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.
