SIX MEDFOHD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Wednesday, Mar 2, 1958 Soviet Jet Bomber May Fly Higher Than US Interceptor Plane lVacViin3f nn .IIP E. Partridge, air defense com mander, has warned Senate in vestigators that a new Russian jet bomber may be able to fly higher than any U.S. interceptor now in use, it was learned yesterday. Partridge said, however, that the United States has some new aupersonic interceptors coming along that will be able to recap ture the defensive advantage, over high-flying jet bombers. Follow LeMay Warning Partridge's warning comes on top of one by Gen Curtis E. Le May that his Strategic Air Com mand will lose superiority in long-range striking power to Russia by 1953-60, unless the United States moves to increase production of intercontinental bombers above present plans. jL.oth Partridge and LeMay were called back for further questioning today behind closed doors by a Senate armed serv- Gen. Earle ' ices subcommittee is investigat ing whether the United States is in danger of losing air superi ority to Russia'. ' Partridge was said to have warned in a secret session Mon day that the new Russian Ibng range bombers could probably fly higher than any American interceptor now in operation use. And at the high altitudes, Part ridge was said to have warned. the Russian bombers could prob ably fly faster than the inter ceptors. Dependent on Three Planet The Air Defense Command is now dependent upon three in terceptors the F89 Scorpion, the F94 Starfire and the F86 Sabre Jet. All are officially de scribed as having a ceuing of "over 45,000 feet." The new Russian intercon tinental jet bomber the Bison reportedly has a maximum al titude of over 50,000 feet, as does the comparable U.S. B52 bomber. A Nichol's Worth of . . . Comment On This and That By HARMAN W. NICHOLS United Press Feature Writer Washington (U.R) What's new in Washington: Some congressmen in the old House office building are becoming long hairs, literally. Reason: the price of hair cuts has gone up from 50 to 75 cents. In the new House office build- Harmjn Nichols you sun can get trimmed for 35 cents. Sure, it's complicated. The new and the old House buildings hap pen to be under different juris dictions. The price increase in the old building was okayed by the House Administration Com mittee. Old House comes under US' the doorkeepers. The new build ing is under the jurisdiction of the Capitol architect. Of course, there is nothing to keep the help in the old House, where haircuts cost 75 cents a clip, from running across the street, and getting clipped for 35 cents. bb n b a - What's a a a most important I Oto you...n k getting a senator A can Q OH THINGS OONI in Washing Ion for you and Oregon ...get 0 things done on the senate floor, in committees, at the White B House, with federal departments.

I a a a The April Air Force Magazine was devoted mostly to Strategic Air Command, to which "air man" TV star Arthur Godfrey is devoted. He plugged the book on his own show, saying: "You folks ought to get one of these things." Seems that 160,000 folks an swered the request. It caused all kinds of trouble for the air force. Letters came in. Magazine of ficials had to run out and buy a bunch of new letter openers. The Post Office apologized be cause it couldn't sort out th important mail from the fan stutf on account of it was all first class. One guy even sent in a ton from a flour box featured by one of Godfrey's sponsors.

PKC rEATOKB CTVPtCAtg. fat, WOKVb VtMK WggtVEP Around Hollywood By ALINE MOSBY United Press Correspondent Hollywood (U.R) What's happened to Kathryn Grayson? Today she's officially out of "se clusion with big plans for a new dramat ic career in movies and t e 1 evision and no more musicals. The beauf ful singer has not been on public view Aline Mosby since her TV debut last fall and "Kiss Me Kate" in theaters. She seldom is seen in public and dates infrequently. The gossip columnists whispered she had "retired." But the vivacious Miss G. be- V j gins her new career with a high rated flourish tonight by trading quips and singjng opera on Bob Hope's NBC-TV show. Mental Case Portrayed Next the ex-musical comedy star will follow the footsteps of Frank Sinatra and other sing ers who've turned dramatic. She will play a mentally-ill girl on CBS-TV's "General E 1 ectric Theater" and portray a married woman who falls in love with a gangster in a motion picture, "Calendar of Love." "I'm not doing another musi cal unless it's something tremen dous," the singer said today af ter rehearsing with Hope. "If you keep on doing those silly musicals your career is dead. Frank Sinatra used a lot of sense in getting out of them. They ruined Betty Grable at Fox with those pictures." Response Boosts Career The Hope show is her first live TV appearance and only her sec ond job on television. She play ed a blind girl on the filmed "GE Theater" last October. The rating was .so high and the fan mail so heavy she decided on a dramatic career in earnest. Her latest and probably her last movie musical, "The Vaga bond King," was made . more than a year ago at Paramount .and will be released this year. "Everybody said I retired af ter 1 left MGM. Well, goinr to Paramount wasn't exactly retire ment" said Miss Grayson firmly. . Lumber comprises 80 per cent of the construction material used in the U.

An derson continued gathering- ev dence here today to present to a grand jury on an alleged em bezzlement case involving a convict now in the Oregon state penitentiary. In other developments sur rounding the case which result ed in District Attorney Eugene Venn asking the state to step in, the Lane County Bar as sociation yesterday decided to drop its investigation into the case. A special grievance commit tee which has been investigating the case did not make its report public yesterday. The committee was appointed by the State Bar association and therefore will make any report to the state group rather than the county as sociation, officials said. The county bar association voted to drop its investigation, however, in order not to dupli cate wont being done by the at torney general's office. The ' case involves Moses Moody, currently serving a sen tence for armed robbery of a Eugene grocery store. He is said to have claimed "he was deprived of money due him. Of all the farms in the U.
