United Front Is
Urged for Flood
Control Measures
Grants Pass F. I. Bristol of
Rogue River told the Rogue
Basin Flood Control and Water
Resources association Wednes
day, residents of the basin
should provide a united front to
obtain flood control measures.
Bristol recently returned
from Washington, D.C., where
he conferred with representa
tives of Army engineers, and the
Interior department.
He said it was the general
consensus of opinion that the
entire basin present a united
front and send a delegation to
Washington, DC, advocating
flood control. He told the as
sociation that residents are
urged to write congressmen re
lating individual flood damage
information along with photo
graphs if possible.

Bill Bert, representing Sen.
Wayne Morse, who was unable

communications from Senator
Morse. One was a statement
Morse made to the appropria
tions committee for funds to be
made available to Army engi
neers and the bureau of reclama- ,
tion to make a comprehensive
survey of the basin.
Also at the meeting, articles
of incorporation were signed by
directors present. The next meet
ing was scheduled for 8 p.m.
Tuesday, May 15, in Rogue
River.
Boy Kills Faiher
For Refusal of Car
Minneapolis, Minn. (U.R)
Michael Abbett, 14, killed his
father with a rifle shot last
night because he wouldn't let
him use the family car.
. The boy gunned down his
architect father, Loren, 44, in
the kitchen of their suburban
Edwina home, police said. Then
he smashed his father's rifle
. against the floor, breaking the
stock, and went to his room to
await police.
Officers said the eighth grade
student told them "I was tired
of being scolded."
Michael went into a frenzy
when his father refused to let
him drive the family car be
cause he was too young, police
said. ,
He smashed all the windows
in his room and then raged into
his father's room and grabbed
the rifle.
. When his mother and two
brothers saw him coming with
the gun, they started to flee to
the basement. They were still
on the basement stairs when
Michael leveled the rifle at his
father from six feet away and
shot him, police said.
Playground Area
Fight Goes To Court
New York (U.R) A brigade
of mothers dried their eyes and
went into Supreme Court today
for a legal fight to keep a grassy
play area in Central Park from
being turned into an asphalt
parking lot.
The mothers moved their baby
carriage battle lines from the
play area to the courts Thursday
and gained a temporary vic
tory. Work on the parking lot was
ordered stopped. Bulldozers and
construction crews abandoned
their work after the tearful
mothers went befori Justice
William C. Hecht Jr. to Seek a
temporary injunction to pre
serve the play area.
Opposition attorney John P.
McGrath promised Hacht that
no more work would be done on
the parking lot until the whole
matter was decided in court.
The mothers' case is based on
an 1853 decree which said "no
encroachments would be tol
erated," in the then brand-new
park.
