MAIL TRIBUNE
Large Balloon Spotted
36,000 Feet Over Area
A bright, luminous object
spotted over the Medford area
at about 5 p.m. yesterday was a
clear plastic balloon, floating at
about 36,000 feet, according to
airport sources and Guy Vinson,
astronomer at Camp White.
Vinson said the balloon was
funnel shaped. The local wea
ther bureau reported it was not
one of their balloons and ex
pressed the opinion that it may
have been released by military
sources.
A jet pilot flying over this
area at about 5 p.m. reported it
was at the 36,000 foot level at
that time.
SOC Enrollment
Said Stabilized
Ashland Summer session at-
! tendance figures indicate that
I Southern Oregon college's rapid
i growth within the last few years
has assumed a permanent status,
according to President Elmo N.
Stevenson.
"In spite of the falling enroll
ment of veterans whose govern
ment benefits have been exhaust
ed, our total enrollment for the
summer is down only one and
two-tenths per cent," Dr. Steven
son said. He also pointed out that
there was no "forced enroll
ment" as on the preceding year
by those who had to meet the
July 1 deadline for the awarding
of three-year diplomas. From
that date on, according to Dr.
Stevenson, a BS degree will be
awarded under a four-year cur
riculum plan.
Including the" post sessions,
total enrollment for the summer
was 635.

Army Man Refused
Purchase of Home;
Ancestry Blamed
Garden Grove, Calif. (U.R)
Two-time U.S. Olympic diving
champion Dr. Sammy Lee was
denied a chance to buy a home in
a land development because of
his Korean ancestry, it was learn
ed today.
Mrs. Leota Johnston, wife of
the land developer, D. E. John
ston, said they turned Lee and
his expectant wife down "two or
three months ago" because of the
"financial risk involved."
"We've invested just about
everything we've got in this, and
to sell it to someone, like that
could put a damper on a good
number of other sales," Mrs.
Johnston said.
Lee now is a major in the
Army Medical Corps stationed at
Camp Carson, Colo.
The development in which Lee
tried to buy a home consists of
16 lots amid an orange grove.
Johnston is building three-bedroom
homes ranging in value
from 527,000 to S30,000 on the
lots and selling them to care
fully screened buyers, Mrs. John
ston said. Five homes have been
built so far.
"As far as we ourselves are
concerned," Mrs. Johnston said,
"we would have no objections to
havitjg the Lees as our neighbors,
but anyone spending that much
money for a home would think
twice."
Johnston is a 34-year-old Navy
veteran, Mrs. Johnston said. He
was a contractor before opening
up the development.
In a copyrighted story, the San
Francisco Chronicle said that Lee
on two occasions was turned
down in his efforts to buy a home
in the area.
Schmidt To File Own Divorce Suit
Sacramento, Calif. (U.R)
Airman Daniel Schmidt will per
sonally file his own divorce pa
pers at a secret location, it was
revealed today.
The divorce suit will charge
Una Schmidt with "extreme
cruelty" and will demand cus
tody of Schmidt's young son,
Daniel Jr.
There will be no mention of
adultry or bigamy in the suit.
Howard P. Welch, attorney for
23-year-old Schmidt, said earlier
"We will not drag Una's name
through the mud."
The decision for Danny to
personally carry his papers to
the courthouse added a dramatic
touch to the stories of a modern
day "Enoch Arden."
Schmidt will come out of
hiding in the Sacramento area
to file the papers. From the
Trailer House Burns
Near Central Point
Central Point A small trail
er house at the Dale Higinboth
am home, Central Point Market
rd., was destroyed by fire yes

Central Point rural firemen re
oorted. They said the cause of
ie fire was not determined.
Rural firemen extinguished a
small fire at the V. R. Stickel
home also yesterday. The fire
involved grass, a fence and
stored lumber. An incinerator
spark was thought to have start
ed the blaze, firemen stated.
One rural truck was on stand
by service this morning while

Pah Released From
Jail After Fine Payed
Two men jailed here this week
on a charge of possession of un
tagged venison have been re
leased following payment of
fines.
They are Melvern Boyd Stan
islawski, 20, and James Alpheus
Inlow. 25, both of 415 Berrydale
ave. Teddy Wayne Ruth, 25, of
1502 Prune st., arrested at the
same time, was released earlier.
All three were fined $75 and
costs in district court.
The three men told the court

Prospect Welcomes
New Business Fjrm
Prospect Local residents
welcomed another new business
into their community this week
when they attended an open
house at Mill Creek Falls Cafe.
The. area, growing rapidly,
now contains about 3,500 peo
ple. A good climate and beautiful
scenery, especially this time of
the year, have helped in draw
ing visitors and future residents
to the valley.
Fishermen, attracted by the
Rogue's fast, tumbling waters,
have traveled from all parts ot
Oregon to fill their creels. As an
aid to fishermen, the Oregon
state game commission has
planted 40,000 legal-size trout
in the upper portions of the
river in both 1954 and 1955.
Timber produced in the area
is declared to be an important
product . for the entire valley.
72,000,000 board feet have been
harvested annually from the
U.S. lands, and another 30,000,
000 board feet are cut from
private lands.
filing, he was to turn and head
for Portland Ore., to see his
mother, Mrs. Nellie Peters.
Speculation persisted that Una
might try to contact Danny there
for a reconciliation. Schmidt has
recently flatly opposed reconcil
iation. DAILY WEATHER REPORT
