Beck Hanged, Burned
In Effigy Thursday
Yakima, Wash. U.R! Dave
Beck, Teamsters president, was
hanged and burned in effigy
here Thursday night In front of
a Teamsters Union hall.
A placard reading "Majority
members of Local 524 strongly
in favor Senate Investigating
committee" hung from the
effigy.
Witnesses said a group of
men who identified themselves
as Teamsters came out of the
union hall near the end of a
stormy meeting and burned the
effigy.
About 700 irate Teamster
members attended the meeting
to demand that steps be taken
to lift a trusteeship imposed in
1954.
Members also passed a resolu
tion saying no money from the
local's general fund would be
used for Beck's defense should
he be brought to trial.
Fred Wehde, a trustee ap
pointed by Beck to handle the
union's affairs when it became
involved in internal difficulties,
said the resolution was unneces
sary but was shouted down.

Hollywood (U.P.) Television

good little girl out of Patty Mc-

"Sometimes when people see
me they call me 'Rat' a,nd 'mon
ster' but I'd like to do more of
those bad girl parts," -the 11-lear-old
actress whispered shyly.
Patty was sitting in the Brown
Derby restaurant, nearly lost in
the big booth and quietly observ
ing the celebrities table-hopping
by. As she carefully ate a ham-and-cheese-on-white
she explain
ed her "Bad Seed" stardom had
snowballed her into more jobs.
Ntw Rol Assumed
She plays a nice moppet who
mothers two little boys on NBC's
"Matinee Theater" April 2.
"But maybe I should do this,"
she grinned, and made motions
of demolishing the two tykes as
she did her victims in "The Bad
Seed."
Next week Patty is another
nice girl on "Heuiz 57" and then
she begins a seven-year contract
at Universal-International studio,
beginning with playing a little
angel in "Christmas in Paradise."
Since Patty is going on 12, she
may lose her trademark, those
pigtails, for the U-I pictures.
"I like good girl parts, too,"
she added.
Unimpressed by Stardom
In real life Patty is a far cry
from the "Bad Seed" brat. She
appears to be a healthy tomboy
with nice manner who isn't im
pressed by stardom, a novelty
among the little darlings of the
movies.
The child became an actress
at 6 by accident when she went
te a speech theater in New York
to overcome a lisp. The teacher
sent her to a tryout of a play.
which flopped. But her second
Broadway drama was "The Bad
Seed." It established her as a
success among small fry the
spians. Patty was called to Hollywood
for the movie version, and for
"The Day They Gave Babies
Away." She's now in such de
mand that her parents moved
to the cinema capital.

Food Ration Plan
Halted for Survey
Salem U.R) Gov. Robert D.
Holmes said today the State
board of control has decided to
hold up start of a food ration
program in the state's institu
tions until a policy study can be
made.
The decisidn came at the close
of a special board session at
tended by heads of several insti
tutions and budget representa
tives. A new food supervisor had
been scheduled to begin work at
Fairview home April 1 to inaug
urate a food ration system simi
lar to one already in effect at
Oregon State hospital and East
ern Oregon state hospital. The
state penitentiary also operates
on a food ration system.
"I think we must review all
food policies of the institutions,"
Gov. Holmes said after hearing
state officials including Elsie
Maxwell, food consultant for the
board of control.
Budget proposals now before
the legislature would abolish the
post held by Miss Maxwell, who
has favored a central ration and
food control system for the state.
This was included in a recom
mendation by Miss Maxwell,
Leon Margosian, finance depart
ment, and Al Richardson, for
mer food manager of Oregon
state prison, after a survey last
year.
OSC Students Hurt
In Light Plane Crash
Corvallis U.R) Two Oregon
State college students escaped
with only minor head injuries
when their two-seater Cessna
120 missed the Corvallis airfield
and crashed in a muddy field
about 11:30 pjn. yesterday.
Jerry Long, 20, of Roseburg.
and Willis Allen Wood, 21, of
Salem, the pilot, were confined
to Good Samaritan hospital
here.
The two had been on a flight
over Portland and Mt. Hood
earlier in the evening in the
plane belonging to the Salem
Pilots association. They tried to
return to the Salem field but
the lights were out so they con
tinued on to Corvallis where
landing lights are left on all
night.
Wood, who has been flying
for about a year, said he thought
he was on he runway when he
came down. The two were
knocked unconscious but later
recovered sufficiently to walk
about a mile to a telephone to
summon an ambulance.
The flight had been Long's
first in any type aircraft.
About 60 per cent of the na
tion's wholesale trade is handled

dry goods, clothing and furnish

merchandising lines as well.
