Circuit Judge Takes Writ In Advisement Klamath Falls (U.R) Cir cuit Judge David R. Vandenberg today had under advisement a petition for a .writ of habeas cor pus to keep convicted slayer James Quinton Anderson out of Oregon Slate penitentiary. Attorneys for Anderson argued that the federal law delegating to the states jurisdiction over Indians on reservations was un constitutional because it placed an Indian under double jeopardy subject to prosecution both by the federal government and the state. Three years ago Judge Vanden berg upheld the state's jurisdic tion in another Klamath county murder case involving an Indian. In the current case, the Oregon Supreme Court has upheld the conviction of Anderson on a mur der charge and his life sentence for the slaying of Richard David Miller Klamath reservation show horse breeder.

BY WILLIAM EWALD New York (U.R) "Let's Take A Trip," a show which travels with a tall master of ceremon ies, two medium-sized children and a small budget, might safe ly be classified as TV's most modest magic carpet. A CBS-TV public affairs entry since April, 1955, "Let's Take A Trip" lives on a budset of about $12,000 a week, a TV al lowance somewhat comparable to what a rickshaw driver draws in Shanghai. Neverthel ess. 'Trips' has managed within the short span of its electronic life to gain a reputation as one of the most peripatetic efforts on TV, pok ing into spots as various as a Seminole village in Florida, a California horse ranch, a coal mine in Illinois, a Christmas pageant in Washington, a fire house in New Jersey. Audience Half Adults "What we try to do on the show," says Stephen Fleishman, producer, "is take children into the world of adults. We figure the show appeals mostly to kids in the eight to 12 bracket, but we know from our mail that 50 per cent of our audience is adult." Fleischman's program has three regulars Irwin "Sonny" Fox, a 6' 2"' 31-year-old chap eron and his charges. "Pud" Flanagan and Giner Machmanns. both of whom are somewhat younger and shorter. "Ginger and Pud never see the site of the show until the day before it es on.'- says Fleisch man. "They're naturally curious kids and many of the things they're interested in we try to incorporate in the show. I would say only about 50 per cent of their lines are slanted by us.'" Fleischman has found that Ginger and Pud themselves are most interested in trips that are connected with sports and animals, but tend to be less en thusiastic about trips to factor ies. "They like things like Red Cross swimming instruction, livestock expositions, the horse ranch and the Brooklyn Dodgers ball park. But when we visited something like a factory in the garment center, which was; fpretty interesting to me, they; seemed less worked up," he said. Action A Must Since "Let's Take A Trip" lasts a full 30-minutes. Fleisch man's problem is to iniect action into each educational journey. "For that reason we shy away from places like. say. a super market, where the movement is pretty limited. Another type of show we've ruled out is an oil refinery. Same reason". Most of the 60-odd trips thus far have originated from out doors. "And that's quite a prob lem," said Fleischman. "We did one show from a frozen food farm in Seabrook, N. J., where we had to get the cameras out in the broccoli without mess ing it up. "And there was another hor rible time when we were show ing how a skyscraper is built in New York. Right in the middle of the program, one of the worst snowstorms of the year started. "It's reached the point now where I get the taste of blood about half an hour before air time, but somehow we always make it. I guess somebody up there must like us." Morse 'Pleased' By Radar Installation Portland U.R) Sen. Wayne Morse today expressed "pleased satisfaction" in announcing that he had received notice that the Air Force will establish a Sage Radar installation at Camp Ad air. Morse said he had been infor med that the Air Force installa tion representative in the North Pacific region has been instruct ed to complete the design site adaptation and that the Air Force is now processing funds I for construction of the site. ! It is not yet known, Morse added, when a construction con 1 tract will be awarded. 4& Home Furnishings END-OF-SUMMER CLEARANCE "Decorator Quality" Lamps Sofas and Sectionals Mattresses Bedroom Sets Dining Sets CLOSE-OUT PRICES On Floor Samples Tag Ends, Odd Lots vV Home Furnishings Forget-Me-Not Sale To Begin on Friday Disabled American .
