f FALSE ALARM Berkeley, Cal. (U.R) John Jucich, 44, doesn't have "bats in his belfry" but he thought he came close to it. Jucich felt a flapping sensation in his ear on an evening stroll, and doubting himself, asked his wife to place her ear next to his. She heard the same noise. Hospital attend ants freed a large moth.

Average Chinese Bewildered By Turn of Events in Homeland (Editor's note: Here is the fi nal dispatch in a series on life behind the iron curtain in China by the manager of the former United Press bureau in Shanghai. He was the last American press association reporter to leave Shanghai. He made his way to Manila, carrying thousands of words of notes.) By Blake Gearhart United Press Correspondent Manila, May UOl.R) Yuan Wong is a Chinese peasant farm er. There are about 100 million Yuan Wongs throughout China. In the last year many things have happened to Yuan. His country's flag went down and the communist flag went up. His ruler became a communist named Mao Tze-tung, and his former ruler, Chiang Kai-shek, fled to Formosa. Yuan began hearing strange words that orig inted in Moscow. A big estate was cut up and he received a piece of land that he could call his own. It was a strange, new world that was created for Yuan 11 months ago. How's he doing today? Not Doing So Good Not so good. At least not near ly as well as he expected. The 1 rosy glow created by communist I promises of a new freedom and a new way of life has disap peared.

True, he has his own piece of land. But at regular intervals communist officials come around and appropriate some of Yuan's rice. They also levy heavy taxes against him. When the commu nists get through with Yuan, he finds he is right back where he started under the nationalist gov ernment. He gets a bare living for nis family and the tax col lectors get all the rest. Yuan is not an educated man. but neither he nor his ancestors ever liked the Russians. Historic ally, Russia has been a nation Miss Veidt Named Supervisor of Vocal Music Here Miss Lorraine Veidt has ac cepted the post of supervisor of vocal music in tne Meatora schools, School Superintendent E. H. Hedrick announced today. She succeeds Miss Mabel Nansen who previously announced her resignation effective at the end of the present school year. Miss Veidt has been vocal music instructor -at the senior high school since September, 1947. Three of her groups gain ed superior ratings at the recent state music contest. Her units here have been outstanding, Hedrick said. Miss Veidt had su pervisory experience in Minne sota before coming to Medford. She was graduated from the University of Minnesota in 1945. New Instructor Succeeding Miss Veidt as vo cal instructor will be Miss Shir ley Gay Williams, who will be graduated from University of Oregon this spring. She will also handle some instrumental work. Two former Medford teachers have been elected to Medford posts by the school board Hed rick said, Mrs. Gertrude Lorton for elementary work and Mrs. Edna Honson Stewart to the senior high English department. Other elections to elementary posts are Miss Althca Lee, Clark field. Minn.; Miss Carroll Mann, Fairfax, Minn., and Mrs. Jane Strawbridge, Sutherlin. Hedrick reported that the res ignation of Robert Bennett, high school physics and mathematics instructor, to enter private ousi ness in another state, has been accepted bv the board. He has been here two years. HOP DRIER BURNS Salem. Ore.. May 11 'U.R! A hop drier on the Henry Classen hrm six miles north of Dallas was destroyed by fire late Wed nesday. Mrs. Classen said she believed the blaze started from sparks . from the burning of blackberry brush on the craok bottom 50 feet from the drier. that has taken things away from the Chinese without giving any thing in return. And today Yuan sees Hussia and tne Kussian brand of communism playing a larger part in his life. Yuan has a brother, Chen Wong, who went to Shanghai in his youth and eventually became a prosperous merchant. How's he doing today? Merchant Bewildered Not so good, either. Chen Wong doesn't hate communism as such. He doesn't hate or en thuse over any political system. All he wants to do is carry on his business in the traditional Chi nese fanner. That means he wants to collect "squeeze," a system of extracting bribes in return for business favors. But the first thing the communists did when they took over Shang hai was to eliminate "squeeze" in the government bureaus. It's no longer possible for Chen Wong to grease a palm in the tax bureau or to get a favorable gov ernment ruling on a business transaction by placing money in the proper hands. But his taxes go on and he is a bewildered man in a strange, new world. What do Chen Wong and Yuan Wong intend to do about it? Nothing. That is, nothing im mediately. For one thing, they are scared to do anything. A communist army of 4 million has a firm grip on China. There is lots of discontent throughout the nation, but the discontented have no standard to which to rally. Help Too Far Away You hear reports of guerrilla fighting in the Honan mountains and in Kwangsi and Kwantung, but the only effective force op posing the communists is on Chiang Kai-shek's island fortress of Formosa. That's too far away to help Chen and Yuan. Yuan Wong. Chen Wong and the hundreds of millions of other anti-communist Chinese appear to be resorting to China's age old strategy. They are doing to try to absorb their conquerors and gradually return China to its old ways. It's a strategy that has never failed in recorded history.

Dead line Sunday Classified la Nr i Saturdays Frightened Deer Stray Onto Portland Streets Portland, Ore., May 11 (U.R)1 Two frightened and bewildered wild deer strayed from their forest haunts into the city. One was a Dlack-tailcd year ling doe. frantically she tried to escape the horde of yelling children that pursued her through backyards, across pave ment and over hedges and fences. Some of her tormentors rode bicycles, others chased her afoot. finally, in desoeration and with a child hard on her hooves, she darted through an open door and bounded up a stairway to the second floor of the Mill Court apartments. Captured By Police mere she was cornered and captured by police and taken into custody by Humane society representatives. She was cut and bruised, but probably will live. It was a different storv for the second deer a young buck. in a wua attempt to regain the open spaces, he butted through man-mane tences and Barriers, injuring his tender horns and head. But there was no escaoe. Pur suers finally trapped him in a back yard and trussed him. When the rones were bound around his legs, he died. Thursday, May 11.
