TEN MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUN2 Thuridar. Julr 1845
EATS $28 WORTH
FOR SINGLE MEAL
f--. CKnHIMnn. Calif.. July
26 (U.R) Buddies of Marine
Pvt. Earl R. Wolfe, 18, of Bums
tnl win shelled out $28.45
in a' rash attempt to see how
much Wolfe could eat, today
claimed for him the title of
Armed Forces' Chow Champion.
Army Pfc. Chester J. Salvatori
of Southbridge, Mass., who army
doctors described as an exniDi
4iAnit urhnn hp downed an inor
dinate amount of food, is Just
a piker, the marines saia.
Wolfe, who is "really hun
gry," at one sitting devoured: 1
Twelve fish dinners each with
rHr r,f French fries, com
bination salad and jello; four
quarts of milk, six pints of ice
cream, three malts, five cherry
pies, six sandwiches, five toma
to salads and four glasses of
orange lulce.
The check: $28.45.
Under the heading "Hungry
Man," Time magazine in a re
pent Issue described the gastron
omic feats of Pfc. Salvatori as
fnllows:
"The mess , sergeants at Fort
McPherson, to whom hearty ap
petites are an old story, were
openly impressed. The medium-
sized (140-lb., B-It. 7-inj private
kept bringing his tray back ad
back. When he had finished
breakfast he had finished 60 eggs
and 76 hot cakes. At that rate,
he was getting some 30,000 cal
ories a day (a hearty male diet:
6,000).
"By the time the press discov
ered him last week, Pfc. Chester
J. (The Stomach) Salvatori, a
horn-tooter in an itinerant Army
.band, had landed in the Fort Mc
Pherson Post Hospital; he had
been under observation there for
a month. Hospital Commandant
Colonel Burgh S. Burnett had
an old-fashioned diagnosis: there
was nothing abnormal about Sal
vatorl's metabolism it was real
ly only his ego that needed nour
ishment. He is an exhibitionist
who puts on his eating show for
the benefit of fellow soldiers.
The Army had him eat alone, re
stricted his caloric intake to
7,000 a day.
"But while the newspaper ex
citement was on, the hospital
absent-mindedly gave Salvatori
a pass. He made a beeline for an
Atlanta cafeteria, where custo
mers and the press watched him
cat seven prders of fried chicken,
ten orders of French fries, nine
glasses of orange Juice, two
quarts of milk, ten combination
salads, five egg salads, two or
ders of olives, two glasses of iced
coffee, two slices of watermelon,
five orders of rolls and five slices
of apple pie a la mode. Cost:
$9.03. He was eating light, he
said, because he had already had
six candy bars and a quart of ice
cream.

SOFT LAI PLAN
LITTLE RELIEF IN
The recent, point free ruling
for soft lambs, widely publicized
as bringing much needed relief
for sheep growers and meat
hungry public falls far short of
the mark here, the Jackson
County County Chamber of
Commerce today telegraphed
Clinton Anderson, secretary of
Agriculture, and "Senators Guy
Cordon and Wayne Morse of
Oregon. Out of 300 lambs just
dressed by the Medford Meat
company, only two animals
graded point free, the chamber
declared.
"Unless a more liberal effort
is made to dispose of the large
surplus of soft lambs, the point
free ruling will be a mere ges
ture," the officials were Inform
ed. "Southern ' Oregon sheepmen
generally shear lambs before sel
ling and ceiling prices do not en
able slaughterers to come out
even on lower grades if the mar
ket price is paid and the pelts
sold at the sheared price," the
chamber's telegram continued.
"We urge your early review
and modification of the order to
permit marketing of the sur
plus," it concluded.

RAZED BY FIRE
Eugene, July 26 The three
story Bartle Court apartment
house was swept by fire Wed
nesday, leaving 100 persons
homeless, most of them without
personal belongings. It was esti
mated that the loss would reach
at least $100,000.
The blaze, believed to have
started in the furnace flue, vir
tually destroyed the frame and
stucco building that covers a
quarter block of the downtown
district. Residents of the estab
lishment fled to safety when the
alarm was sounded just before
7 a. m. and after flames burst
out simultaneously on the roof
and in the basement.
The Lane county Red Cross
chapter announced that Eugene
residents had volunteered to
house the persons left homeless
by the fire. The Red Cross said
it was able to find temporary
housing for 140, through the
services offered by local citizens

BY KLINEFELTER
Bert Klinefelter, Greyhound
bus driver, of Redding, declared
yesterday that published stories
of the accident on the highway
near Ashland the morning of
July 21 were incomplete in that
it was not explained how the
three vehicles involved came to
be abreast on the road while all
were going in the same direction.
According to Klinefelter, his
southbound bus came up behind
a light truck, being driven by
Gladys McCulley, of Medford.
The McCulley machine was not
far behind an Oregon-Nevada-California
freight truck. Kline
felter said he signaled with his
horn and started to pass the light
truck. Just as his machine got
abreast of the rear end of the
light truck, the driver pulled
over to the left, apparently with
the intention of passing the
heavy truck. This -maneuver,
Klinefelter said, threw the light
truck partly in his path and be
fore he could brake' down, the
bus shoved the light truck ahead
and alongside the freight truck.
In the ensuing mixup, Klinefel
ter stated, the machines were
nearly abreast for a moment.
No one was injured in the brief
tangle.
Klinefelter said he had not at
tamnipH in nass the two ma
chines while they were abreast,
as some might have construed
the original published report of
the accident which was obtained
from the Ashland police. Such
a maneuver, he pointed out,
unnlH hp fnnlhardv for any
driver, and, as their safety rec
ord shows, bus drivers have the
best record of all when number
of miles traveled is considered.
