WednesdiT. June 20, 19SI Supreme Court Gives Reasons for Demurrer rOTTHTETir MZUrOFD (OHEOOK) MAIL TKIBtTNK In Lane County Case Salem (U.R) A majority of four memberi of the Oregon Suoreme Court today released a ; written opinion disclosing rea om for sustaining a demurrer of Circuit Judge Frank B. Reid of Lane county against a writ previously directed to him. ' District Attorney Eugene C. Venn of Lane county sought to compel Judge Reid to discharge Shoe Shine Man Delivers Sermon - Columbus, Ohio (U.R) The owner and operator of a shoe shine stand delivered the bacca laureate sermon at East High School this year. The president 'of the graduating class was the speaker's son, Frank Cleveland Jr. , When the Rev. Frank Cleve land Sr. told the members of the graduating class to continue their education in npite. of obstacles and hardships he was a living ex ample of his sermon. The 43-year-old minister, who obtained his own high school degree only last spring, runs a shoe shine parlor to finance not only his own education but that of his sons. He will enter Capital univer sity this fall in quest of a de- .' gree. Cleveland Sr. was born in "Louisiana. His father died three months before he was born. Frank then began shining shoes to help his mother. He came to Columbus 18 years .ago, working as a porter and -riveter, then married and be came a deacon in the church. In he entered the ministry and was ordained in the Mis sionary Baptist Church. - Determined to get an educa tion for himself and his sons, for which preaching did not pro vide enough income, he turned : to shining shoes again. So far this has provided the necessary educational financing. Frank Jr. will join his father at Capital university. The younger Cleveland was awarded scholarships totalling $800 by Capital university for proficiency. He also won the Duke and Duchess Club of 'America $100 scholarship, has been cited by the Ohio Music Education association as an A-l Music student, and was chosen as tht most outstanding student in music and for citizenship at East High. the April grand jury which he charged had been improperly drawn. The majority opinion, written by Justice Earl C. Latourette, held that on May 9 Circuit Judge Dal M. King of the same judicial district overruled the district at torney's motion to discharge the grand jury. J is'ticc Latourette declared that every lawyer should know "our ruling on the demurrer is not a ruling on the truth or fal sity of the allegations found in the writ respecting the conduct of Judge Reid. Every lawyer should also know that nothing here is said as to the merits of the controversy and that our action in the premises does not foreclose a proper inquiry when brought in a proper proceeding against the proper parties." Up Ts Authors "Responsibility for any delay i in final disposition of the mat ters referred to in the writ rest in the authors of the petition and not upon this court," he said. Majority judges in the case in addition to Latourette were Chief Justice Harold Warner and Justice Walter L. Tooze and William C. Perry. On behalf of the minority. Jus tice Hall S. Lusk filed a short opinion in which he was joined by Justices George Rossman and James T. Brand. . Justice Lusk said that this is a lawsuit between the slate of Oregon as plaintiff and Judge Reid as de fendant. "It is this court, not the defendant judge that is asked to determine the question whether the grand jury for Lane county is an illegal one," the minority judges held.

Soil Jest Will Get Garden Off To Fast Start Urbana. 111. (U.R! Before winter sets in take a test of your garden soil. The test will get your garden off to a faster start next spring, says Norman Oebker of the Un iversity of Illinois. To take the test: Dig spade-depth holes at about eight scattered spots in the garden. Take a thin slice from the side of the hole all the way from top to bottom. Let the soil dry out in an ordinarily heated room. Then mix the eight slices together and send about half a pint of the mixture to a soil testing lab, such as the one at the University of Illinois, where-tests are run for a $1 fee. Be sure to tell the lab what the soil will be used for next spring. NO VACANCY Remember being hot, tired and your back aching from drnring fatigue . . . and then pass a million "No vacancy" signs?
