Dean; Change In Top Officers Set San Francisco (U.R) Maj. Gen. William F. Dean, hero of the Korean war who spent three years as a prisoner of the Com munists, announced Saturday that he had requested his retire ment effective Oct. 31. Dean, who is Sixth Army dep uty commander at the Presidio here, said he informed the Penta gon two weeks ago verbally that he was "turning in my suit Oct. 31 because I haven't had the time to be with Mrs. Dean." Feared War In announcing his retirement Dean said that 'the only thing that has delayed me this long is the fact I wasafraid we would be fighting ' again and if we fight, I'd like to have a division again." Dean had a division, the 24th Infantry Division, in the early days of the Korean conflict. Wounded in July of 1950, he became the most famous Ameri can soldier ever to be taken prisoner. Dean, holder of the Congres sional Medal of Honor, is still a few months shy of 56, but he has had almost 32 years of Army ser vice. - Dean, highest ranking Ameri can officer captured by the North Koreans during the war, is now deputy commander of the Sixth Army at the Presidio in San Francisco. He was awarded the Congressional Medal of Hon or for the defense of Taejon. The Army announced that Lt. Gen. Willard G. Wyman, Sixth Army commander, will leave the Presidio July 1 to become dep uty commander of the Contin ental Army at Fort Monroe, Va.t Aug. 1. Assignment Unspecified Maj. Gen. Robert N. Young, former Army assistant chief of staff for personnel, will report to the Presidio July 1, but his assignment was not specified.

Dean, who will be 56, Aug 1, is senior offi cer to Young. Court Records POLICE COURT Owen Lee Goaaett, violation of basic rule, $10. William Ward Reei, failure to atop (sign), $5.

Mr. Alfred G. Peterson, a forth right man, addressed the con vention of the Savings Associa tions League of N. Y. State and boldly discussed the matter of advertising-of his own free will. Mr. Peterson, who is president of the National Savintrs and Loan League, and president of the First Federal Savings and Loan Association of Greenwich, Connecticut, spoke as follows: ' "I feel that advertising is a very profitable investment. But we should not buy advertising blindly. We should give careful consideration both to the appeals and the media we use." And listen to this ! "The medium which tops the list is the medium that reaches the greatest number of people at the lowest cost. It is my opinion the. newspaper is that medium ..." But that isn't all-. . . because it reaches the local market All of us are really conducting local businesses. "We may be bound together into a national in dustry, but our spheres of influence are entirely local "The newspaper reaches precisely the people we want to reach." Ah, Mr. Peterson you are a man who knowi his investment! Last year the institution headed by Mr. Peter son invested 5 of its gross income on adver tising, and more than 60 of that went into newspapers. In only ten years this Association multiplied its total resources eight-fold! Gosh! If savings and loan people themselves advertise, think how they must feel about lend ing, money to people who work for sound com panies who advertise soundly in newspapers. "I place the newspaper at the top of the list All business is local...and so are all newspapers! medford TEUBUHE illfllUUI LIllllllll'fllUIHIll . u 1 1 1 1 j u 1 1 1 1 ci ii 1 1 j iv. 1 1:1 lu'.i-Lj. j.".: .-..v ' .vXv. vV--.w'.Vv.vV".f "' v- '
