Elmo Smith, passing through here yes terday en route to Boise, said in an interview that he had no im mediate plans for the future when he leaves the governor's office in another month. "I have newspaper interests and I might acquire more of those," the governor said. "I want something that will keep me extremely busy." Smith said he planned to take a keen interest in Oregon public affairs after he leaves office and said "It's going to be novel to stop for awhile," in reference to his record of public service. He pointed out that being gov ernor was a tremendous respon sibility and also a great chal lenge. "I was. most impressed with the genuine opportunity it gives you to aid people that needed to be helped by society, govern ment and the community," . he said. Washington The U. S. Army Signal Corps and the Bell Tele phone System opened to public service today a new and import ant communications link be tween the United States and the growing Territory of Alaska. The link consists of an underwater telephone cable system stretch ing some 1.270 miles from Port Angeles, Wash., to Skagway, Alaska. Hatfield Chilson, Assistant Sec retary of Interior, and B. Frank Heintzleman, Governor of Alas ka, made the first call over the new system. Chilson spoke from Washington and Heintzleman from Juneau. Inaugural Call The inaugural call was made over a 4.600 mile telephone net work that linked Wishington to Juneau and included Seattle, Ketchikan, Anchorage and Fair banks. At each location, govern ment, military and industry of ficials participated in the cere monies. The cable system represents two major projects one provid- I ed by the long lines department of A. T. & T.; the other by the Alaska Communication System, which is operated by the Signal Corps. The A. T. &. T. cable system extends from Port Angeles to Ketchikan, Alaska, a distance of about 900 miles. Twin cables, containing built-in amplifiers, lie in the ocean depths off the coast between the two points. These cables were placed by the Albert J. Myer between early June and late August. They are similar in design and construc ted first tion to the transatlantic phone cable system the such system to cross an ocean which went into service Sept. 2 Amplifying Stations The ACS cable, which covers the 400 miles between Ketchikan and Skagway, is a single sub marine cable stretching along the inland waterway on the southern coast of Alaska. This cable util izes amplifying stations that are located on islands or points of land that dot that area. From Port Angeles, the south ern terminal, the cable circuits are connected to the U. S. net work at Seattle by a radio relay link recently constructed by the Pacific Telephone and Tele graph Company. At the northern end, beyond Skagway, the cir- I cuits are fed into the Alaska com munications network, operated by ACS. The system took over two years to build. It can carry 36 conversations at one time and will be used to supplement the radiotelephone and land line fa cilities that have been operating between the States and Alaska since 1937. The new cable system will more than double the capacity of the radio and land circuits and will perform with the clarity and reliability of the best Stales side telephone line, it will add to the flexibility, security and re liability of the U. S.-Alaska facilities. NEWS NOTES from Crater High School COSTLY ARCHERY itold Gtt to stop ahoorlnr. Detroit (U.P.)

Neuberger said here yes terday he has offered to resign from the Senate Public Works committee if he can be appoint ed instead to the Agriculture committee. "I am not at all sure it can be worked out," he added. Neuberger was in Pendleton to meet with farm leaders, ranchers, irrigation and recla mation officials to get recom mendations on the solving of their problems. "I think Oregon farmers have suffered a great drop in income and for that reason I am willing to sacrifice the public works committee assignment to serve on agriculture and try and tackle the farm problem." the junior Oregon senator said. U.S. Protests Culling Of Communicalions Washington (U.R) The Un ited States has strongly protest ed to the Hungarian puppet government for interrupting communications between the State Department and the Am erican Legation in Budapest a second time. 1 The Hungarian charge d'af faires, Tibor Zador, was sum moned to the State Department fate Monday afternoon and handed a note complaining about the interruption. It said: "The United States strongly protests this interruption of tele graphic facilities and expects that the Hungarian authorities will prevent such an interrup tion in the future."

Balisla Offers Life If Rebels Surrender Havana, Cuba (U.R) Presi dent Fulgencia Batista ordered military commanders in the Ni quero area today to offer "full guarantees for their lives" to all rebels who surrender.

JOSEPH ASPIRIN FOR CHILDREN Pat Medley By PAT MEDLEY Central Point Students who were in the recent play, "The Girl In The Rain," have been chewing finger nails and cross ing fingers. Last week the staff of the play, exclud ing the cast, n o m inated a boy and a girl for the "Jer ome." The Jer ome, fashion ed after Holly wood's "Osc ar," Is present ed in the spring for the best male and female performance in a dramatic production during the year. The nominees from this play will then compete with the Jerome nominees from the plays presented later in the year. Only the director knows who has been nominated until voting time next spring. The football teams, freshmen, junior varsity, and varsity, re ceived their letters at the ath letic awards assembly last week. Students were amazed and some seemed worried about next year when Coach Leonard Warren asked the seniors on the team to step away from their team mates. The handful of remain ing boys was hardly enough to make up one football team. Giant caricatures of Coach Jim Nau and his basketball team decorated the walls at the Comette victory dance. The dance was held after the Oak ridge game last Saturday, and was attended by all the Oak ridge team. "The Homemaker of Tomor row" will be discovered when the results of the Betty Crocker Homemaker test are tabulated. The senior girls took the test last Tuesday. The winner from Crater High will compete with winners from other Oregon schools. The tests, given on a nationwide basis, offer the first four national winners a S5.000, S4.000, S3.000. and $2,000 col lege scholarship respectively. The test is designed to measure the outlook and attitude of the girl's on personal marriage prob lems, as well as knowledge of general homemaking problems. Last year's national . winner, strangely enough, had never taken any homemaking courses in high school. Committees for the Snowman's Ball, the annual winter formal, 1 have begun to function. The dance, which will be held, Sat urday, Dec. 22, is sponsored by the senior class. The queen and her court will be seniors. Gen eral chairman for the event is Donna Guc'nes. Committee chair man under her Grace Gail, band: Roger Seaman, program book lets; Pat Medley, entertainment; decorations, G a y 1 e Childress; card tables, Janet Anderson and Sara Turner. The refreshment committee has no chairman, but work cooperatively.
