EIGHT MEDFORD. (OREGON)
Subject of Fine Funeral
Walks Into Friend's Home
Merced, Calif :U.R It was a real fine funeral that Bill
Hawkins' pals put on for him.
Oni1 of his grieving friends donated a suit so Bill could
fef; buried in style. Others chipped in to buy a burial plot.
And all of his buddies attended the Masonic funeral services
on Feb. 23.
The only thing wrong was that Bill wasn't dead. They
buried another man.
The mixup came to light when the 74-year-old laborer
strolled into the home of his friend of 30 years, Charles A.
Bunch, Friday night. Bunch was one of the friends that had
identified a man struck down and killed by an automobile Feb.
19, as Bill Hawkins.
More than somewhat startled. Bunch called Coroner
Kenneth Riggs who was even more disturbed.
He had the dead man exhumed and his fingerprints sent
to the state capitol at Sacramento for identification.
As for Hawkins, he was "pretty shook up," said Riggs.
He had been away on a trip to Sacramento.
Racketeer's 'Front Man1
Shot While In Parked Car
" Newark, N.J. (U.R) An al
leged labor racketeer's "front
man," who has turned state's
witness m a New York City in
vestigation, was shot four times

sitting in his parked car with
a woman.
The critical wounding of Louis
B. Saperstein was Newark's sec
ond gangland shooting in four
days. Police were unable to link
the two slaying attempts, how
ever. Police said Saperstein's shoot
ing occurred a few hours after
his around-the-clock bodyguard
left his side when the labor fig

Press Screening
Today of TV Show
Hollywood (U.R) The NBC
television network will hold a
private press screening today of
the controversial "Medic" film
showing the birth of a' baby by
Caesaren section.
The showing of the film orig
inally was scheduled for tonight
but was cancelled because NBC
officials in New York believed
it "would be unsuitable for
home audiences."
Frank La Tourette, producer
of "Medic." claimed the cancel
lation was the result of a writ
en protest which he said was
"inspired" by Francis Cardinal
Spellman of New York. But
spokesmen for NBC and " the
church denied the cardinal has
anything to do with the cancel
lation. La Tourette and James Mosh-
er, co-producer and writer of
"Medic," wired Cardinal Spell-
man saying they considered the
action "an unwarranted and
Qry disappointing use of your
high office."
TtK Rev. Timothy J. Flynn,
director of radio and television
for the Archdiocese of New
York, had written NBC protest
ing the scheduled program on
grounds the film was on sex ed
ucation, a subject which, he said
should be handled by the church
and home.

Bodyguard Assigned
The bodyguard had been as
signed to Saperstein when he
bgan testifying before the
Grand Jury in March, 1955.
Police said Saperstein was
able to tell them he thought he
was shot so he could not testify
at a New York investigation.
"I know of no other motive,"
he said..
Saperstein has been described
by New York officials as a
"front man" for George Scalise,
a one-time labor leader jailed
in 1940 for stealing his own
union's funds.
Saperstein was convicted of
contempt for refusing to answer
a New York Grand Jury's ques
tions about racketeering. But
after four months in jail, he
changed his mind and decided
to "cooperate."
A heavy police guard was post
ed at Saperstein's hospital room
and police also were assigned
to his expensive South Orange
home. ' '
Three Men in Car
Saperstein's companion, iden
tified as a Bayonne, N.J., wom
an, told police she and Saper
stein were sitting in his car
shortly before 4 a.m. when an
other car pulled up.
Three men were in the other
car, she said. One got out, open
ed the door of Saperstein's car
and fired four times, aiming at
Saperstein s head. Two bullets
struck Saperstein's left ear. One
hit him in the mouth. The fourth
passed through his throat.
A resident of the 'neighbor
hood heard the shots and rushed
outdoors as the gunman fled.
The resident pushed the bleeding
Saperstein over in the front seat
of his car and drove a few hun
dred feet to St. Barnabas hos
pital.
'Secrecy' Delaying
Some Developments
Washington (U.R) Rep. John
E. Moss (D-Calif.) said Friday
leading scientists have agreed
that government-ordered "ex
treme secrecy" has delayed im
portant technological develop
ments. .
Moss, chairman of a House
government' operations subcom
mittee studying government re
strictions on scientific informa
tion, made the statement after
three days of committee hear
ings. Not only has research been
impeded, he said, but application
"of the, results of research to
important technological devel
opments has been delayed and
even prevented altogether be
cause of a fetish for extreme
secrecy on the scientific com
munity." Moss said the subcommittee
learned that some leading sci
entists and universities have re
fused to work on important pro
jects because of the secrecy.

Is That So?
.Tokyo with Japan Air Lines
At a Japanese teahouse in
which we had chickens killed
and dressed that morning and
prepared in more than 20 de
licious ways, my hosts Tony
Sanda and his assistant Jerry
Mitsuhashi of Japan Air Lines,
gave me the Japanese equivalent
for every English proverb I
could muster, dealing with the
outdoors. It shows, perhaps,
how closely the thinking of one
country's people parallels an
other's. Here is a loose translation of
the Japanese proverbs with their
English equivalents liberally
rendered:
Dust amassed will make a
mountain: Great oaks from little
acorns grow.
Clams are not obtainable f?om
the field: One cannot get blood
from a turnip.
When hungry, all tastes deli
cious: Hunger is the best sauce.
Where there is no fire, there
is no smoke: Where there is
smoke, there is fire.
You cannot catch a slippery
fish with a gourd: Slippery as an
eel.
Sanitation first, medicine next:
An ounce of prevention is worth
a pound of cure.
Single effort, double gain: Kill
two birds with one stone.
A new servant works hard
but 20 days: A new broom sweeps
clean.
In haste, one goes in a circle:
Haste makes waste.
Easy to say, hard to do: Easier
said than done.
Snakes follow the way of ser
pents: Set a thief to catch a this.
Crabs dig holes according to
their size: Cut your coat accord
ing to the cloth.
