PAL Club Story In Police Magazine An artkle on the Medford PAL'club is in the August issue of the "Pacific Northwest Law Enforcement News." The article describes the club as an "unqualified success from every standpoint," and gives a brief history of the organization since its beginning on July 13 1934. Quoting Police chief Charles P. Champlin, the article tells of the work being done by the po lice department, businessmen and citizens to establish the club and keep it on its feet, financial ly and morally. "Since the inception of the club there have been two fight cards, both viewed by standing room only crowds. The proceeds have carried the club through its first year. New equipment has been purchased and more members signed," the article stated. Americans spend an estimated 22 billion dollars for domestic travel, counting only those trips which involve overnight stops. Free Polio Shot Bill Up To Ike Washington (U.R) Con gress passed and sent to Presi dent Eisenhower yesterday a bill authorizing the government to pay for free polio snots tor an estimated one-third of the na tion's eligible children and ex pectant mothers. The House and Senate quickly approved a Senate-House confer ence committee s adjusted ver sion of separate House and Sen ate bills. The final bill allows the gov ernment to make $30,000,000 worth of Salk anti-polio vaccine availiable to the states between now and Feb. 15. This was a compromise between a House bill providing an estimated S45,- 000,000 and an "open end" Sen ate measure limited only by the amount Congress was willing to appropriate. Former Welfare Secretary Ov efa Culp Hobby had asked $35, 000,000 for free polio shots. The amoeba is eyeless but its body is sensitive to light. 11 U.S. airmen jailed by the Peiping regime as "spies." Mrs. Schmidt admitted she will have a "great deal to dis cuss"' with her husband when he gets home her second mar Facts Problem Like Enoch Arden, the central figure in Alfred Lord Tennyson poem, Schmidt faces the prob lem of deciding whether to ter minate the second marriage of his wife or eo his own wa alone. "I thought Danny was dead Mrs. Schmidt said. "I didn't find out he was still alive until two months after I married Alford Now I don t know what I am going to do. The only one who knows is the good Lord himself. Mrs. Schmidt had no idea what her husband's reaction to the news of her second marriage would be. But she added: I think it s better to come home and find your wife is hap pily married than to come home and find she's been running around with everybody." Mrs. Schmidt is the mother of a 2-year-old child, born two months after she received word in January, 1953, that her hus band's B29 had been shot down over North Korea. She married Schmidt, a child hood sweetheart in their horn town of Coeur D'Alene, Ida five weeks before he went over seas. Mrs. Schmidt said she was con vinced Daniel was dead when she married Fine. However, she admitted making a "mistake' in failing to get the second mar riage annulled when she learned he was alive. I made a big mistake," she said. "I don't think there's a per son m the whole wide world who doesn't make a mistake once in a while." Remarriage Withheld She said she wrote now and then to Schmidt after learning he was in prison, but she did not tell him she had remarried. "I figured he'd gone through hell without me putting a little more on him," she said. "Alford and I talked about it a long time last night. We love each other very much, and he says my decision in the matter will be final." She said she will meet her hus band when he returns home. "We could have a great deal to discuss, including the future of our son. I believe we can straighten out all our difficul ties. Fine said he would go along with whatever his wife felt was right. "We are very much in love and we have faith that every thing will work out satisfac torily," he said. 5,0,2 '3" 5f r- S o BOOTS & MOCCASINS BY TRIMFOOT .
