tator Juan D. Peron (center, in shirt sleeves) is welcomed
at Salvador, Brazil, on his stopover to Nicaragua from

A Nichol's Worth of
Comment On This arid That
By HARMAN W. NICHOLS

men om their way to the South
Pole for Operation Deepfreeze
, O are grateful
for many help
ing hands.
Particularly
the likes of
W5DDQ. This
is the radio
call - back
name for a fel
low in Corpus
Christi, Tex.,
who make a
habit of doing
nice things for
people.
W5DDQ Is a 23-year-old ham
radio operator named Ickey
Zrubeck. He wrote to the com
mander of the Operation Deep
freeze task force and let it be
known that he would do all he
could to help relatives in Amer
ica bridge the 10,000 miles be
tween here and Antarctica to
keep in touch with members of
the expedition.
The Navy was delighted to ac
cept the young man's offer. In
fact, the tars were so grateful

Cases Against Three
Youths Are Dismissed
Gases against three young men
tvere dismissed in Ashland Jus
tice court, Friday, on a motion of
Deputy District Attorney Gene
Piazza.
They were John Duane Aus
tin, 22, of 115 Bush st., Ashland,
Who had been charged with fur
bishing intoxicating liquor to
minors; Gerald Mickle, 18, of
66 North Mountain ave., Ash
land; and a 17-year-old boy, both
charged with illegal possession
of alcoholic liquor.
Oregon Farmers Union
To Oppose Small Dams
Salem U.R) The Oregon
Farmers Union said Friday it
would file a petition to inter
vene before the Federal Power
Commission to protest a license
for small dams on the Snake
river at Mountain Sheep and
Pleasant Valley.
The Pacific Northwest Power
Company, consisting of four big
Northwest power firms, seeks to
build' the projects.
they presented Icky with a gift,
a new piece of equipment for his
radio receiver.
Operation Deepfreeze isn't the
first military outfit to benefit
from Ickey's amateur radio sta
tion. He has long been keeping
in touch with the U.S. forces
stationed in the Panama Canal
Zone. He connects mother with
son. Son with sweetheart and
aunts and uncles.
The Texan uses what he calls
"phone patches." This sort of
thing allows a party to call Ick
ey's phone in Corpus Christi,
which he connects to the radio.
The Navy always has radiomen
at the other end listening.
In a decent length of time,
contact is made. It hapened a
number of times on trial runs
Ickey made to the Canal Zone.
New fathers were notified they
were new fathers and talked
with their wives. A couple of
them even heard squawks from
their new offspring.
Is there a better morale build
er? In his original letter to the
Navy's Antarctic section here in
Washington, the young man said
that he thought he had all of
the equipment necessary to be
of help.
He mentioned things like the
"Viking II" (120 watts input)
and Johnson Matchbox, Johnson
VFO, with a Hallicrafter S-76
receiver, and a three element
beam (rotary) on 15 meters.
Technical stuff of interest only
to radio operators.
Ickey said that his operating
hours are from about 9:30 in the
morning to 5 in the afternoon.
Important thing is that Ickey
Zrubeck is an unusual operator,
with a full quota of the milk of
human kindness.
He does his operating from a
wheelchair.
Portland Firm Low
Bidder for Ashland Job
Portland (U.R A Portland
firm has submitted the low bid
for a project at Ashland for a
new one-way highway system in
that city.
The bid of $118,136 was sub
mitted by T. W. Thomas. The
project calls for grading and
paving the northbound lanes of
the new oneway highway system
in the Jackson county city, a
total of about .51 mile.
Second 'Safety'
Test of Nuclear
Device Succeeds j
Las Vegas, Nev. (U.R) The j
Atomic Energy Commission has
indicated it has held the j
second "safety" test in the field I
to determine whether nuclear j
devices can "be detonated acci-j
dentally. j
Ohsprvprc nf nrpvinnc ntnmir I
tests interpreted a cryptic AEC
statement to mean that for the
second time a blast from explo
sives failed to detonate an
atomic device.
Spars Information
The AEC continued its policy
of releasing only sparse infor
mation on the current safety se
ries. It issued the following
statement:
"In a test today there was a
detonation of low explosive
force. The test created no radio
logical problem."
The AEC refused to amplify
or explain the statement. Earlier
this week the AEC needed two
statements to make clear that a
safety test was held in which a
blast by a charge of explosives
failed to detonate an atomic
device.
Scientist Conducts Test
Dr. John C. Clark heads a
team of 30 scientists from the
Los Alamos, N.M., scientific lab
oratory which is conducting the
tests on the Nevada proving
ground, 65 miles from here.
No observers have been per
mitted to view the tests, which
the AEC labeled "routine" but
without any troop participation.
Veteran atomic test observers
said the current series reflected
the concern of the AEC with the
growing arsenal of nuclear
weapons in this country. Scien
tists have said laboratory work
indicates atomic weapons can
not be triggered accidentally.
Slight Injuries
Caused by Crash
Clarence Hiner, Grand hotel,
Medford, received slight head in
juries when a car in which he
was a passenger was involved
in an accident Friday on High
way 99 near Bear Creek or

report. j

years car, escaped injury.
A second accident, in which
no one was injured, involved

Warner, 217 South Riverside
ave., and Paul Alvin Hiss, route
2, box 368, which collided at the

ner was cited by police for fail
ure to yield the right of way.
