SIX MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Sunday, April I, 1956 News About Books From the Library By MISS HELEN WEBSTER Medford Librarian A donation of $100 was made to the Medford Public Library last week by the Jackson Coun ty Public Health association for the purchase of books about family life. A list of 13 titles which the association would like to have available in the Medford Public and Jackson County library was also submitted, and these will b? purchased immediately to start the well-rounded collection of books on this subject, which the donation will make possible. Others Invited Other groups are invited to participate in the same way to build up subject collections in which they are interested, thus making additional books avail able to all their members. The library's limited funds for books must be extended as impartially as possible over hundreds of subject interests, without spe cialializing in any. It buys general books on re ligion, for instance, but cannot attempt to cover the histories and doctrines of the many de nominations. However, it would gladly accept gifts of from one to five books of standard worth on any of these. Lodge Gift Another organization which has made a library donation re cently is the Olive Rebekah Lodge which, in memory of the late Mrs. Carrie Mae Rickertt Morand, is purchasing "The Home Gardening Encyclopedia," for library circulation. The se lection was made after consul tation with the librarian as to titles already in the library's collection and new books avail able. More advantageous pur chase can usually be made in this way, groups are advised. Individual donations were re ceived during March from Mrs. W. M. Voter, Fred B. McKee, Mrs. J. D. Althouse, Margaret Hanawalt, Lucille Ames, and Mrs. Harry L. Tilton. A total of 153 gift books were added to the library this month, and 393 pur chased books.

Fong Murder Trial Recessed Saturday Portland (U.R) The Fong murder trial resumed briefly in Circuit Court here Saturday and then was recessed until Monday when the defense was expected to recall Pio Riego to the witness stand. Wey Him Fong is on trial for the second time, charged with the first degree murder of Diane Hank, his 16-year-old babysitter. Fong's wife has been convicted of second degree murder in con nection with the case but has appealed. Circuit Judge Frank J. Loner gan denied a defense request to have Riego disrobe in the judge's chambers to determine if there were any marks on his body. The witness testified through a Fil ipino interpreter that there were no marks on his body and he re plied "nobody" when Defense Attorney John P. Hannon asked him if police officers had struck him. Riego testified earlier that Fong had threatened to kill him if he went to the authorities with the report that Fong wanted Riego's help in disposing of a body in the trunk of his car. The state concluded question ing of 29 of its own witnesses Friday. Deputy District Attor ney Howard Loneragn said he hoped to complete the state's case by the middle of next week. Petitions Circulate For Lt. Governor Portland s'U.R) Petitions aimed at creating the office of lieutenant governor were being circulated Saturday in Oregon by the Oregon State Grange, the Oregon Farmers Union and the AFL-CIO. The petitioners hoped to have 40,093 valid signatures on the petition by July 3. The initiative measure would be a constitutional amendment creating the lieutenant gover nor's office with the person elected next in line of succession to the governor's chair. Under the proposal, the lieu tenant governor would be acting i governor in event the state s chief executive was out of the state and he also would serve as president of the Senate. His sal ary would be not less than $5,000 a year. Moves to create the post of lieutenant governor in Oregon have been defeated by the voters on four previous occa sions. Thirty-nine states have lieutenant governors.
