Los Angeles (U.R) A com plete medical and psychiatric ex amination was scheduled today for the train engineer who blamed his blackout for a Santa Fe railway wreck in which 29 persons were killed. District Attorney S. Ernest Roll also announced that the re sults of coroner's inquest into the wreck will be presented the new county grand jury. Physician Named Roll requested the examina tion for Frank B. Parrish, 61, the engineer at the controls of the two-car diesel train when it upset Sunday night. Dr. Marcus Grahan, county jail phy sician, will examine the engineer. Parrish accepted sole respon sibility for the crash, the worst train disaster in California his tory. He said he blacked out for nearly two miles before the crash which occurred on a curve as the train hit 70 miles per hour. Roll said both Parrish and the train's fireman, Homer Smith, 42, will "be among more than 100 witnesses at a coroner's inquest Feb. 3. Smith has blamed mechanical failure for the wreck. He said he yelled at Parrish to put on the emergency brakes and nothing happened when the engineer applied them. Scene Toured Police, railroad and district attorney's investigators toured the accident scene Tuesday. Roll, who made the three-hour tour with his chief deputy, Adolph Alexander, said the train's brakes apparently were in good working order. The braking system was spread for 250 yards along the rails. Sand indicated the brakes were set before the train overturned. Wednesday, January 25, 1958 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUHE TEH On The Side By E. V. Durling (Distributed by King features- Syndicate.

Guide to Guys Aries (March 21-April 20) men are hard to get and hard to hold. It takes a woman of great pa tience, much courage and an un derstanding of all the angles of the male character to break an Aries man into matrimonial harness. The clinging vine tech nique will not work with an Aries. Neither will the tyranny of tears. A woman who captures and tames an Aries man should have a medal. Or, so say the star- gazers. Horses and Women It was Byron, who, referring to England, his native land, said, "Our cloudy climate and our chilly women." However, many women of experience have claimed it is the English men who are chilly. That, when prop erly inspired, English women are far from . chilly. Gaby Deslys one said, "Englishmen are all nerves and no passion." Now Mrs. Maiy Hyde, an English woman, in a book titled "How to Manage Men," seems in agree ment with Mile. Deslys. Says Mrs. Hyde in part, "Englishmen are just naturally stodgy and cold by nature. They are not demonstrative." Asides ' Henry Ford gave the five day working week its start in this country. That was in 1926. Be fore that the custom was for people to work a half day on Saturday ... It was Arthur Richman who observed, "When a woman refuses to quarrel with a man, it means she is tired of him. True lovers fight back." Sidelights Among this country's females the girls of Seattle, Wash., have the best complexions. Second in that respect are the San Fran cisco girls. After that those of Portland, Ore. . . . Next to those machines known as ' "one arm bandits," the most profitable game for a gambling house is roulette. The house percentage for roulette is about 5 per cent. The house percentage for dice is only VA per cent. Psychology Are you a salesman? To what extent do you use psychology in your selling? How about color pschology?
