Kelly Girl Service
Discussed at Noon
Chamber Meeting
Miss Dana Platz. co-operator
of Service Unlimited Employ
ment agency, Medford, and area
manager of Russell Keliy Of
fice lervice, discussed the his
tory and operation of the "Kelly
girl service" yesterday at the
noon luncheon of the Jackson
County Chamber of Commerce
Roundtable.
The "Kelly girl" organization
was started in 1946 by Russell
Kelly, Miss Platz said, a former
business executive who wanted
a business with less ' pressure
than others.
The organization retains ex
perienced business women to
provide temporary service. Miss
Platz added the home office, in
Detroit, new employs 250 girls
and . has 57 bram-h offices
throughout the United States
with 23,000 girls.
No Standard Size
There is no standard size
among businesses that are "Kel
ly" clients, she said. Businesses
that claim they need no temp
orary help probably have more
permanent help than they need,
she added.
Kelly girls are guaranteed
and fees are adjusted if they
are not satisfactory, according
to Miss Platz. She added every
thing they do is confidential
and they are also bonded and
Insured.
Standards a prospective em
ployee must meet before she
can join the Kelly office ser
vice Include a personal inter
view, an application and ability
tests, she said.

Daily's U-Drive
Medford Airport
Washington U.R) Pulitzer
Prize winning novelist MacKin
lay Kantor said Monday night
phony historical novels are dop
ing the minds of Americans.
Kantor, awarded the Pulitzer
prize for his Civil War novel
"Andersonville," bemoaned in a
lecture at the Library of ton
gress the use of pseudohistory
as the background for "sex nov
els." He said he and others who
started writing historical fiction
in the 1930s "opened up sudden
ly a new miracle mile whereon
the unscrupulous could set up
shop."
"The anachronisms of Holly
wood are a byword," he said.
"But they can be matched page
for scene by lurid chronicles
which have in part sustained the
lending libraries and doped the
minds of the populace for at
least two decades."
"People who had been flood
ing the market with sex novels
about flappers wjio were lured
to madhouses found that they
could write the same sex novels
about the American historical
scene. They had only to dress
their flappers in crinolines."
Motion To Suppress
Use of Tapes Filed
Portland (U.R) A motion
to suppress use of certain tapes
and wire recordings as evidence
was filed yestreday by District
Attorney William Langley in
connection with the case in
which he and two others were
indicted for conspiracy to set
up gambling.
The indictment was dismissed
last week but the court ordered
the case resubmitted to the
grand jury. Others named with
Langley were Joseph P. Mc
Laughlin and Thomas Maloney
of Seattle.
Langley said no evidence
should be considered by the
grand jury other than such as
might be given at a trial. He
claimed the tapes were inad-missable.
Woman, 79r May
Inherit Estate
San Francisco U.R) A 79-year-old
woman learned Mon
day night she may be the sole
beneficiary of an S185.000 estate
left by an Idaho man 23 years
ago.
Mrs. Florence Harrison, widow
of a shipyard worker, took the
news of her good fortune calmly.
"All my life, I've had a feel
ing that some day I'd come into
some real money," she said.
"And now that it's happened,
everyone in my family is going
crazy everyone but me."
The estate which Mrs. Morri
son may inherit was left in 1934
by Philip P. Weber, a KeJIogg,
Ida., banker and Mrs. Harrison's
uncle. She is his only known
blood relative.
Administrators of the estate
recently found Mrs. Beatrice
Holt, a niece of Mrs. Harrison's
now living in Salt Lake City.
She presumably told of Mrs.
Harrison's relationship to Weber
and said she had a son in Ely,
Nev.
The son, Peter Weber Harri
son, was found in Sparks. He re
layed news of the inheritance to
his mother here.
"I'm nearly 80 years old,"
Mrs. Harrison said, "but I still
can do quite a bit with money
like that. However, I imagine
most of it will go to my family."

LEA MOTORS Barllett at 5th, Medford 2-6185
Beaumont, Tex. U.R) Two
bombs were set off Monday
night in this race-conscious city,
blasting out the side of a Greek
Orthodox church.
But early today police could
not determine whether racial
tensions had anything to do with
the two bombings. There were
no injuries and total damage
was light. i
The bombings took place with- j
in 10 minutes of each other be- j
ginning about 10:30 p.m. A third
explosion was heard 45 minutes j
later but police were unable to ;
fix the location. j
Assistant Fire Chief Austin '
Manuel said damages to the St. I
Michaels Greek Orthodox church '
would total about $1,500. One
side of the brick building was
blown inward by the blast. Win
dows in the chapel were shat
tered. Members of the church said
they could think of no reason
why the church was bombed. A
meeting in an adjacent parish
house had just broken up when
the bomb went off.
The second blast was at the
Slash Transfer and Storage Co.
A bomb was planted under a
trailer-truck and blew the floor ,
of the trailer loose.
Indictment Sought
For 'Mad Bomber'
New York '.U.R) An Indict
ment charging attempted mur
der was being sought today
against "mad bomber" George
Metesky whose homemade pipe
bombs injured 15 persons before
his capture last week.
Thirty five persons, including
eight injured by bombs which
the mild mannered Metsky said
he planted, were scheduled to
appear before a Grand Jury
hearing evidence in the case.
Although Metsky was booked
on lesser charges, it was learned
that the district attorney's office
was seeking an indictment on
the rarely invoked attempted
murder charge. Conviction on
this charge carries a maximum
sentence of 25 years.
Non-Agricultural Employment Higher
Salem (U.R) Non-agricultural
employment in the Portland-Vancouver
area increased
2.500 last month while in down
state Oregon 8.100. fewer jobs
were recorded, the State Unem
ployment Compensation Com
mission reported today.
Commission reports indicated
that 257,900 persons were work
ing during December in Clacka
mas, Multnomah and Washing
ton counties in Oregon and
Clark county in Washington.
This compares with 255,400 the
previous month and 249,500 a
year ago.
Claims recorded in employ
ment offices in the area showed
several thousand persons have
become unemployed in recent
weeks. Year-end count for the
three Oregon counties was
around 16,500 actively looking
for work.
Gains of more than 5,000 in
trade and governmental jobs
during the holidays were partly
offset by losses of 1,100 in con
struction, 600 in lumbering, 300
in food processing and a few
hundred in other manufacturing
and service groups.
