(U.R) A former resident of Long Beach, Calif., who is "damned sick and tired" of residential restrictions, said Saturday he would sell Dr. Sammy Lee "a fine home" with in 12 miles of Garden Grove. James F. Collins, a sewing ma chine company executive, said he owned' a four bedroom home in an "exclusive neighborhood" of Long Beach's Los Cerritos dis trict which he would "be proud" to sell to Lee. Racial Restrictions Lee, famed Olympic swimming champion, was turned down in his attempts to buy a home in Garden Grove because of a "rac ial restriction" covering the sale Lee is of Korean ancenstry. Collins said his house was val ued at $20,000 and was in "an old neighborhood conveniently near where Dr. Lee wants to live." "I'll spend up to a thousand dollars in addition to force the issue," the executive said. "I'm damned sick and tired of seeing such bigotry practiced." Ashamed of "Goings On" He said he moved to Honolulu five years ago "and I'm staying here just because I'm so ashamed of such goings on on the main land." Collins said his property is in a restricted area "but it's not in a tract and its sale should be upheld by the courts." He said the district was populated with professional people. "There are four doctors right in the neigh borhood." "It think it's a shame that tracts and real estate people still go for that malarkey," Col lins, said. It's time somebody called them on it."

Baruch, America's premier elder statesman and adviser to Presidents, marks his 85th birthday in New York with confidence in our future. . . Oregon Electric Line Short of Cars Salem (U.R) The Oregon Electric Line has felt the freight car shortage in western Oregon, Public Utilities Commissioner Charles H. Heltzel said Satur day. He said the shortage on this route was unusual. Up to now, the shortage has been confined to the Southern Pacific system in western Oregon. But the Southern Pacific was able to supply 94 per cent of the cars ordered by western Oregon lumber shippers last week com pared to 87 per cent the week before, he said. The Oregon Electric, which is owned by the Great Northern and Northern Pacific, operates between Portland and Eugene with branch lines to Sweet Home and the Lebanon area. Woman Injured in Fall at Ml. Hood Timberline Lodge, Ore. (U.R) A young San Francisco woman was injured Friday afternoon when she slipped near the top of 11,225-foot Mt. Hood, tum bled down a steep snow slope a?id dropped 30 feet into a cre vasse. Ruth Patschkowski, 25, was descending the mountain with a party of 30 California Sierra club climbers when the accident occurred. She suffered a pos sible rib fracture, shock, contu sions and lacerations. The fall was witnessed through binoculars by Frank Gearhart of Manzanita, Ore. He notified lodge authorities who dispatched a "Snowcat" to make the rescue. The . climbers were on a side trip from Mt. Rainier, Wash., where 120 Sierra club climbers had established a base camp. None of them was roped togeth er and the San Francisco girl was believed to have fallen when she lost one of her crampons. Portland Man Named President of WPPA Portland (U.R) Three Port land teenagers were injured, two of them seriously, when they were thrown from their speeding car which went out of control Friday afternoon. In fair condition at Good Sa maritan hospital was Michael Carroll, 16, the driver. His two companions, 16-year-old Tom Co- dekes and 14-year-old Ralph Marketwitz, were listed in crit ical and satisfactory condition respectively. The U.

(U.R) Zeal ous members of the mountain snake handling faith gathered Saturday night to pay macabre tribute to a late brother by heft ing the same deadly diamond back that killed him. And even "if we die by fangs," said a sect leader, the worship pers will continue handling snakes rather than alter the "word of God" as set forth in the 16th chapter of St. Mark. Today's memorial services for the late Rev. Lee Valentine will be held in a mountain grove on the border in the Virginia-Har-lan county, Ky., area. Valentine died from a rattler's strike at Ft. Payne, Ala., a week ago Sat urday, the 14th member of the faith to die since 1940 as the result of the waird rites. The worshippers hope to have the same snake on hond for the services but in any case there will be "plenty of srpents there," said the Rev. Oscar Hut ton, roganizer of today's mem orial. Handling snakes is against' the law in Kentucky but there were conflicting opinions whether au thorities will intervene today. "They can eat snakes as far as I'm concerned," said Virginia Commonwealth Attorney Edgar Barcon of Lee county. "All they want is publicity but we'll ig nore them." Light sprinklings of water are good for a newly-seeded lawn". Worming ewes before turning them out to pasture makes bet ter sheep more economically. Touring Russian Farmers Take Good Look at LA Area Los Angeles (U.R) Touring Russian farmers took a quick look at a modern American 4airy farm Saturday and then made clear that they "wanted to be alone" for an unofficial, un chaperoned swing around this sprawling city to wind up their nationwide trip. Their jam-packed 32-day cross country trip obviously had wear ied the Russian farm leaders. So, after a brisk, 90-minute morning tour of a dairy farm in nearby Glendale, the Russians announc ed that the rest of the day would be devoted to private, unsched uled sightseeing. The press and other official attaches were not invited to accompany them. The Russians leave this morn ing by plane for Washington. But it was apparent that the group wanted to see as much of southern California on their own as possible. Conference Cancelled A press conference and ranch barbecue scheduled for Satur day were cancelled. Last night the visitors attempted to dodge following newsmen for an un scheduled bus tour of the city a tour which iook them to the shores of the Pacific where one of them wearing bathing trunks took a dip. Seven of the 10 official farm delegates visited the Glendale dairy farm of Roger W. Jessup, a member of the Los Angeles coun ty board of supervisors. The oth er three farmers missed the bus. Jessup greeted the Russians in dividually, shaking their hands. "This is what a politician has to do," he smiled. Then he con ducted them on a tour of his farm which has 970 milking cows on 23 acres. After the tour the visitors had milk, coffee and doughnuts with their hosts instead of the plan ned barbecue for 125 guests scheduled by Jessup. While pos ing with Jessup drinking milk, Vladimir Vladimirovich Matske vich, head of the Russian dele gation, cracked: "To be photographed with a bottle of milk! The people at home wouldn't believe it."
