TEN MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Thursday. Mar 1. 19921 Robbery of Brink's Claimed Inside Job; '2 Principals' Named Cranston, R. I.-(U.R) Author ities said Thursday a captured Jewel thief told them that the $1,219,000 Brink's, Inc., robbery was an inside job and named "two principals" in the country's greatest cash haul. Prisoner Questioned Attorneys Gen. Francis E.

"Gagnon has given the names of two allegedly involved prin cipals and has admitted that he had knowledge of their plans prior to the Brink's robbery and that the principals expected no trouble from the inside," Kelly and Powers said in a Joint state ment. They would not divulge the names of the men who Gagnon said had been part of the Halloween-masked gang that took the money from Brink's garage and counting room at Boston on Jan. 17, 1950. But they said Gagnon's story might be the first break in the fabulous unsolved robbery and "must be thoroughly investi gated." Three Communist MIGs Shot Down By US Sabrejets Seoul, Korea (U.R) Two American Sabrejets, prowling North Korea just across the Yalu river from Manchuria, pounced on and shot down three Com munist MIG-15S Thursday. The flight leader, 1st Lt. James H. Kasler, Indianapolis, downed two and became Ameri ca's 15th jet ace with a total of five MIGs destroyed and two damaged. His wing man, 1st Lt. Albert B. Smiley of Albany, Ga., got the other one. Patrol Clashes Along the ground, Allied In fantrymen fought Communists in a scries of sharp patrol clashes.

BAKED FOOD SALE SATURDAY IN OUR STORE Portland Selected By Cattlemen for 1953 Convention Prinevllle, Ore. (U.R) Ore gon cattlemen were homeward bound Thursday after picking Portland for their 1953 conven tion site and reelecting officers for the coming year. 1 The 39th Annual Oregon Cat tlemen's association convention closed Wednesday with the re election of Harry I. Stearns. Prineville, as president along with C. J. Cecil, Burns, first vice president; Garland Meador, Prairie City, second vice presi dent, and J. B. Appling, Burns, treasurer. Precautions Told Dr. A. W. Beagle, Portland, district chief of the Bureau of Animal industry, told the closing session his organization is taking a great many precautionary measures to prevent sabotage to the nation's meat industry through germ warfare. Dr. Beagle said hoof and mouth disease could be introdcu ed and spread widely by an enemy agent. To Ask More Funds The association went on rec ord in favor of asking the state legislature to provide more funds for state brand Inspection work by increasing fees or levy ing a tax on cattle or horses. The cattlemen say this is needed be cause packers have refused to pay brand inspection fees on in terstate cattle shipments. Federal appropriations for for est range maintenance, weed control, range reseeding and im provement of public land re creational facilities were recommended. Atom Submarine Construction To Start Next Month Washington (U.R) The Navy announced Thursday that it will lay the keel next month of an atom-powered submarine which it hopes will be merely the first of a whole fleet of long-ranging, hard-hitting atomic warships. History's first atom -driven sub, already named the "Nau tilus," will be built by the Elec tric Boat Co. at Groton, Conn. The Navy said it will announce later the exact date of the keel laying. Long Und.r Wat.r Because atomic fuel packs such tremendous amounts of energy and because it does not require oxygen as other fuels do, an atomic submarine theo retically should be able to cruise under water indefinitely. It would have to replenish its oxy gen supply only as often as necessary to meet needs of the crew. Secretary Dan A. Kimball has said the Navy hopes to have atomic carriers, cruisers, and de stroyers as well as subs in the next 10 years. lied artillery sparred near the neutral truce conference site at Panmunjom when the Reds start ed throwing mortar shells into lines of the U.S. 1st Marine Di vision. Allied artillery replied and the fight was still going on as delegates adjourned for the day. On The Side 8 F. V. Darling (Distributed by' King F.arur.i Syndicat., Inc.) Orh hone!

Seventy-five per cent of the male population of Ireland be tween the ages of 25 and 35, are unmarried. This is the world's record for bachelor population. Responding to sharp criticism, the Irish single men say they are not to blame. That they want to get married but the colleens are deserting Ireland in great num bers. Seems the great majority of these bachelors are farmers. The life of the wife of an Irish farm- Ten Young Actors Given Scholarships In '52 Festival Ashland Ten young actors, all of them experienced 1 n Shakespearean roles and most of them having professional ex' perience, have been chosen for the board and room scholarships offered by the Oregon Shake spearean festival this summer Four of the actors were with the company last season, and three were holders of the first scholarships offered by the fest ival association in 1951. All others will be new here. Four To Return Returning to the company as scholarship holders are Bill Ball, Carnegie Tech drama student; Paul Reinhardt, now a graduate student in drama and assistant to the costumier at the Univer sity of Texas; and Paul Kliss, Buhl, Id., who spent last fall and this past spring with the Vining repertory company in Ashland. Bill Olyer, member of the '51 company, has been a warded a scholarship this year for the first time. He is a Stan ford Ph.D. candidate. Included among the new hold ers of the scholarships this year will be Arthur J. Carnes, a young English actor who has just completed a season with the Arena Stage company in Wash ington, D. C. Carnes has played with the Shakespearean festi val at Stratford and the Birm Ingham (England) repertory company, among others. Others Listed Also included this year are: Douglas Meeker, speech In structor at Washington State col lege, who holds a master's de gree from the University of Wis consin, a professional dancer and dance instructor as well as actor.

So the bachelorettes are going to other countries for husbands. In Lei trim, men outnumber women fiye to one. So there at least it is apparently difficult for a man not to be a bachelor. Longihoi. Not all longshots come from wagering on horses. Consider the case of Rosetta Couzens, of De troit. She bought one share of stock In the original Ford Motor Company for $100. She later sold this one share for $260,000. That's a 2,600 to one shot. Ships and Women. Corsets produce the highest net profit of articles retailed in dry goods stores. So I note it claimed. Most important if true. Again brings to mind the ancient advice to young men to get into business calling for the equip ment of ships or women. Give it a thought, young fellow. Estab lish a corset shop. You handle the business end including pub licity and advertising. Have your shop staffed by saleswomen with a variety of figures. That is, one for each type of female shape. Then the customers could discuss their figure problems with women similarly formed. Per haps a better idea would be to specialize in a certain type of figure. Anyway, It seems a prop osition worth checking on. Asking. Queries from clients. Q. Drama scribe states that in vaudeville he heard Fannie Brice render a song titled "From Six in the Morning Till the Sun Goes Down I Push This Thing Around." Reference Is to a baby carriage which performer pro pels while singing. My belief is that Fannie Brice never sang this number. That it was Lillian Shaw. A. You are right, sir. I heard Miss Shaw sing it. Q. Was the major leaguer "Ping" Bodie of Irish or Italian descent? A. Bodie is of Italian descent. Real name is Francesco Pezzola. What's In a Name? Rhett Mulligan is the name of a young woman drama student of Manhattan. Rhett is definitely a first name intended for a man. As for example, Rhett Butler of "Gone With the Wind" fame. Before embarking upon her stage career Miss Mulligan should change her first name to Mona, Marlene, Mauvoureen, Myra, Maureen or something distinct' ly feminine. It is difficult to think of a great actress who had a masculine first name. Billie Burke is the only one I can think of offhand. Retiring. Men of 55 or thereabouts are often advised not to retire, the claim being that retirement de creases longevity. This is only true of men who are so wrapped up in their business they have no other interests. Men with hobbies and a broad interest in life usually live to a ripe old age. Take Izaak Walton, who in a period when the life expectancy was less than forty years of age lived to be 90. Walton, a London business man, retired at the age , of 50. He enjoyed forty years of i leisure. As you know, Walton s hobby was fishing. He also liked to write. The first edition of his classic "The Compleat Angler" was published when he was 60. He wrote a fifth edition when 83. FREE DEMONSTRATION m erle noRmen ..aatfica Open 9:30 to 5:30 Incl. Saturday 214 FLUHRER BLDG.
