Mrs. Orville Brandt, the child's mother, made the difficult decision Saturday. Mo Space for Do? "We appreciate the offers, but I think Chris will be happier where he is. It's not a matter of money, but we wouldn't have space in Texas City. We'll be living in an apartment for at least six months, and there will be six of us three other kids besides Kay. "We've promised her another dog lust as soon as we have a place to keep one. She's getting over her heartbreak fast." A picture of Kay tearfully say ing goodbye to Chris stirred thousands of newspaper readers Friday. Adopted Last Year The Brandt family adopted Chria last October 12, Columbus day, which partly accounts for the friendly brown and white shepherd's name. He was a refu gee from the rampaging Kaw river flood last July and when it was over, and nobody claimed the dog, the Brandts took him In.

Mr. and Mrs. Wil liam Thompson of Lecompton, Chairman Doubts Legality of Part Of Dam Program Washington (U.R) Chairman Clair Engle (D., Calif.), of a House reclamation subcommittee said Saturday he doubts the legality of an "upstream use" section in a bill to authorize the Hells Canyon dam on the Idaho Oregon border. Under the section, the Bureau of Reclamation would file under state law for rights to water to operate the project. But the fil ings would be subject to reserva tions for "reasonable and equit able" use of the Snake river for future "upstream irrigation. "I don't think they can do this," Engle said when the sec tion was discussed during a sub committee hearing on the bill. Reclamation Law Cited He said that under reclamation law, the government nas to de pend completely on state laws in acquiring water rights and can't make reservations. "Water is a resource belonging to the state," Engle said. "The government acquires it only by state law." Rep. J. Wesley d'Ewart (R., Mont.), said the section meant the bureau would follow state law only up to a point. He also said the project plan called for use of some 2,800,000-acre feet of water more than the average flow of the stream. "In my opinion," Engle agreed, "the government has fb have some assurance that it will have the water to operate the project or it would be spending $350, 000,000 for nothing." Actress. Anne Sterling Story of Beating Is Phony Hollywood U.R) Sheriff's detectives had another story to unravel Saturday from television actress Anne Sterling on how she was beaten last Monday, aft er her confession that her tale of assault by four men was as phony as a peroxide blonde. The platinum-haired Italian born performer issued a state ment to officers through her press agent Friday that "a rich and powerful" man with a cane "threw me down" in his bed room, "lifted my ballerina skirt and beat me with the cane." Hollywood Playboy Named ' She named a wealthy Holly wood playboy as the alleged per petrator of the beating, but said she would have to confer with her attorney before she signed a complaint against him. . The charge was hotly denied by the man, who termed the bionde actress' story "preposter ous."

Oregon's State Welfare Budget Estimate Given Portland U.B The Ore gon State Welfare commission has received budget estimates totaling $30,647,306 from the state's 36 county welfare com missions. Miss Loa Howard, welfare ad ministrator, said the proposed budget was within the funds pro vided by the 1951 legislature but that county figures probably would be cut in some cases. The legislature provided $63, 752,909 for the biennium and Miss Howard said expenditures to date had been running with in the budget figure. Dentists Asked to Confer The commission asked Miss Howard to confer with the Ore gon State Dental society about adjusting the fee the state al lows for dental services. The action followed reports that den tists were unwilling to perform services at the present fee. The commission also decided for the second year to drop chil dren, except the handicapped, between the ages of 14 and 17 from public assistance rolls dur ing July and August. These are months of highest seasonal em ployment, Miss Howard said, and in experimenting with the policy last year no instance of hardship was reported. TWINS PILE UP Saginaw, Mich. U.R) Four sets of twins were born within a week at St. Mary's hospital. The four mothers already had a com bined total of 23 children. said she had concocted the tale because she said the man told her. " I'm too rich and powerful. No one will believe your story'," when she threatened vto expose him. "Hour of Hell" Earlier, the actress had de scribed "an hour of hell" at the hands of four men who kid naped her as she came ' home from a night of night-clubbing, took her to a house in the Holly wood hills and beat her. In. the revised version of her story, the actress said the beat ing occurred in the home of the wealthy man she named as the assailant. She said she went with the man, her press agent, James Byron, a producer and two uni dentified actresses to his home after having met him in a night club. Refused to Identify Man Miss Sterling refused to iden tify the producer or the two actresses who accompanied her to the millionaire's residence.

In refer ence to the original tale, Investi gator Gil Leslie said: "A lot of things we were told just didn't fit together." The actress spent two days in a hospital following the beat ing.

Phone 3-3800 0 Million May Visit national Parks in 1952 Washington U.E The National Park Service la pre paring for a booming tourist season this spring and summer. It expects a record 40 million visitors to enjoy America's parks, monuments and other rec reational areas. N Lack of Space Feared The service will be glad to see so many persons visit its far flung park system, but is afraid they may be a little cramped for sleeping and eating quarters. "The available accomodations are practically the same as be fore World War II." an official said. "That means that visitors are bound to be a little crowded if our expectations are filled." 12 Per Cent Increase in 'SI Last year, the national park recreational areas were visited by some 36,700,000 persons, about 12 per cent more than the previous year. During the past five months of the park system's present "travel year," 7,178.000 persons visited the recreation spots, about 12 per cent more than during the same period a year earlier. One of the agency's big fears is that the visitors will get too familiar with the supposedly "tame" game roaming in some of the parks. New Regulations For that reason, it will be against the regulations for the first time this year to feed, touch or molest deer, moose, buffalo, mountain sheep, elk or antelope. There has' been a long-standing rule about getting too friendly with bears.
