FOURTEEN MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Friday, Juno (. 1958 Laughs of the Day . . . Jerseyville. 111. (UP' The Robert Crotchetts of near here have a pet groundhog that dou bles as an alarm clock. Every morning at 5 a.m. the woodchuck jumps into bed and awakens them. However, the Crotchetts soon will have to go back to a more conventional time piece since the animal has taken to sharpening its teeth on tho furniture. Los Angeles U.R; The bat tle between the city and John Shinners OTer his pet lion has ended.

An thony Orter. arrested when po lice spotted him in a park car rying an expensive pair of men's sandals, explained he happened to fall through a department store window and the sandals somehow became attached to him. Washington (U.Pi On De fense Secretary Charles E. Wil son's desk is a card bearing this admonition: "Do it tomorrow you've made enough mistakes today." Miami Beach (U.PI Edward J. O'Brien, a visitor from Ken sington, Conn., was arrested for taking a bath. O'Brien took his bath in the middle of a street in tersection, early in the morning. The nude bather used a wash rag and a pail of water. Neuberger Views Ike's Failure To Endorse Sen. Wiley Washington (U.PJ Sen. Richard L. Neuberger (D-Ore.) said yesterday President Eisen hower has demonstrated "he is more likely to intervene in a Republican primary contest to promote anti-c onservation policies than to advance his own foreign policy." Neuberger noted in a state ment that the president at his news conference Wednesday "de clined to intervene in Wisconsin, where Sen. Alexander Wiley is under attack for defending the administration's foreign policy." But said Neuberger "the presi dent upheld his intervention in support of Douglas McKay in Oregon 'on the understanding that there would be no other candidates in the Republican primary.' " " "This is an amazing statement to come from the highest official in the land." Neuberger said. "When Mr. McKay filed for the Senate in Oregon, with the blessing of the President of the United State, four other Re publican candidates had filed for the nomination. After Mr. Mc Kay's entrance, with White House endorsement, one of these candidates withdrew. The other three stayed in the race." "The undeniable fact remains 1i at the president intervened in Oregon in behalf of the man who has done more to retard conser vation than any other official in modern times," Neuberger said. "The fact remains that the president has refused to inter vene in Wisconsin in behalf of the senator who has fought for the supposed foreign policy of the administration. Chofiner Ordered To Bring Records Los Angeles (U.R) Murray M. Chotiner, the 1952 campaign manager of Vice President Rich ard M. Nixon, today was under subpoena to bring his records and files to Washington "forth with." Chotiner. an attorney, was subpoenaed Thursday in connec tion with an investigation by a subcommittee of the Senate inquiry into alleged use of ad ministration "influence" in be half of legal clients. Subcommittee counsel Robert Kennedy and investigator Car mine Belino served the subpoena on Chotiner. Chotiner said the subpoena ordered him to appear in Washington with "records and files in connection with cer tain television companies, air line companies, a construction company and a manufacturing concern." The attorney only recently ac cused the committee of engaging in a 'political fishing expedition" and challenged them to investi gate all prominent lawyers in politics. Ludingion, Mich. fU.R) Scoring a hole-in-one on tha golf course near here is easy as pie, but local golfers don't brag about it. Gophers invaded the course by the hundreds recently, mak ing it almost impossible not to make a "hole-in-one." Hundreds of golf balls have been lost. Talent Seed To Be Shipped To Greece Talent alfalfa seed for Greece is one bright spot on the agricul tural horizon for Jackson coun ty, according to Walter Rice, manager of Josephine Growers Cooperative association. Rice has reported receipt from Greece of a contract for 50 tons of seed at 40 cents a pound. The 50 tons is more Talent seed than is normally produced in this area so a surplus supply of this farm commodity appears unlikely, he explained. Growers who wish to harvest seed of Talent, or any other cer tified seed crop, must apply for field inspection before June 15. The regulations of the Oregon Certification board require that every field harvested for certi fied seed, whether it is alfalfa, grass, grain or any other crop, be field inspected each year that seed is harvested, Rice explained. Applications for field inspec tion can be made at the Jackson county extension office in the courthouse. , - 7 I - S Tsi RISING 11.8 FEET PAST FLOOD STAGE, Columbia River inundates rich farm land near Vancouver, Wash.
