MEDFORD MATT; TRIBUNE. MEPFORD. OREGON. TUESDAY. AUGUST 6. 1940. PAGE EIGHT JERSEY HERDS TOj BE CLASSIFIED BY UNIVERSE JUDGE Breeders, 4-H Club Mem bers and Friends Invited Friday and Saturay. Rogue river valley'f regis tered Jerseys will parade Fri day and Saturday before Prof. W. R. Regan of the University of California at Davis, a Judge of the American Jersey Cattle club, for official classification. Through the classification, the breeder is afforded an opportun- T. H. Warren ity of knowing how an experi enced judge places his cattle in comparison with the ideal type as adopted by the cattle club, Robert G. Fowler, county agent explained. The procedure is not unlike the methods used in pick ing a bathing beauty contest winner. Breeders of dairy cattle, 4-H club members and their friends are invited to attend the two day event. The classification program will begin at 10:13 a.m. Friday at the E. B. Poycr farm in Ash land. The Poyer herd will be classified first. In the afternoon the herds of J. R. McCracken and C. J. Hunter will be clas sified. Baskat Picnic The program will continue at B:30 a.m. Saturday at the Jersey Paradise farm near Grants Pass. George R. Riddle's Jersey herd will be classified in the morn ing. After this event a basket h.TBlitf Sl.1i yew" VJ. Jh i iMI i. V- picnic lunch will be enjoyed In the city park. The afternoon program will be held at the farm of F. W. Schutzwohl where the Shuti wohl herd will pass before Prof. Regan. T. R. Warren of Portland, western field man of the Jersey cattle club, will attend the two day classification event. He will come to Medford by plane Thursday evening from the Montana state fair. Classification rounds out the way of judging cattle. For many years there have been definite systems of ascertaining produc tion. The register of merit sys tem of testing was established by the American Jersey Cattle club in 1903 and the herd im provement registry in 1928. Until recently there was no comparable way of ascertaining the degree of excellence in re gard to the type of dairy ani mal. In response to this need, the Jersey cattle club, adopted, in 1932, the Jersey herd classifi cation program which has since steadily gained in popularity. Mr. McCracken's herd has been classified before. All the other herds will be classified for the first time this week. BOMB THREAT AGAINST IS AS Hollywood, Aug. 8.

TO HOLD REMAINS OF LABOR BOSS Mike Carrozzo- Former Chi cago White Wing Dies a Millionaire Rise Rapid Chicago, Aug. 8. UR) His associates arranged a funeral with a $10,000 bronze casket today for Mike Carrozzo, boss of 15,000 Union Street workers and hod carriers who started 34 years ago as a penniless im migrant "white wing" and died a country squire, reputedly a millionaire. Carrozzo was only 45 when he died yesterday at Presbyter ian hospital where he was taken for an operation for a kidney ailment but he was the czar of six street paving and mainten ance unions as president of the International Union of Pavers and Road Builders and he dom inated 18 other local unions as president of the Hod Carriers' and Common Laborers' District Council. He had been assailed by columnist Westbrook Pegler as a "gangster and labor rack eteer." Rite Quiet, Fait His rise to wealth and power was almost as quiet as it was fabulous and few could tell how he achieved them. Some said he, like Al Capone, once had been a bodyguard of Jim Colosimo during the early pro hibition era. But he was a pro tege of Timothy (Big Tim) Murphy, old-time Chicago labor leader, and started his labor career as president of the Street Sweepers' union in 1919. That his rise to wealth was rapid was evident, for he pur chased first a $75,000 estate on the Indiana shore of Lake Mich igan and later he bought a $140,000 Lake county, Ind , farm with $1,000 bills. It was at the Lake county farm that he established himself as a country squire. Under Indictment He was one of 10 union of ficials Indicted June 24 and charged with violating the fed eral anti-trust laws by conspir ing to prevent the use of ready mixed concrete in Chicago. When the federal government recently placed a lien of $241, 088 against him for 1937 and 1938 Income taxes, Carrozzo came to the U. S. courthouse and deposited $277,251 in bonds to lift the lien.
