Republican Central
Group Holds Meet
An organization and planning
meeting was held by the Repub
lican central committee of Jack
son county last night in the
Medford High school cafeteria.
Reports were given by the
various committees on plans for
the summer and primary elec
tion next year. Among the com
mittee chairmen making reports
and suggestions to the central
committee was D. B. Whalin,
chairman of the candidate com
mittee. He presented a method
by which eligible candidates may
be obtained by the party for the
primary election.
Plans for the annual Republi
can picnic in August were also
discussed.
State Sen. Philip Lowry, who
had been announced as speaker,
was unable to attend. Approxi
mately 50 persons were present.
Mrs. Frank C. Bash, county
chairman, presided at the meeting.
Wash white nylons separately,
because they tend to "steal" dye
from colored articles.
Suggested for Long Trip
Dayton, O- IIP) It you're tak
ing a long vacation trip, over
inflate rather than under-inflate
tires for safer motoring.
For super-highway and speed
way travel, four to six pounds
pressure in tires over the recom
mended amount is desirable.
Max Beetam, service manager
of a manufacturer's (Dayton
Rubber) tire division, said this
reduces flexing at extended high
er speeds. Abnormal flexing
weaken cords, magnifying blow
out possibilities.
11 Acquitted in
Roman 'Scandal'
Venice, Italy (IP) A three
man tribunal today acquitted
Gianpiero Piccioni and 10 of 11
other defendants in Italy's sex-and-narcotics
"trial of the cen
tury" growing out of the death
of a pretty Roman girl.
But the court refused to rule
Wilma Montesi, whose half -nude
body was found on a beach near
Rome April 11, 1953, died in
accidental death. It thus left the
legal doors open for possible fu
ture prosecutions in the case.
The decision proved an anti
climax finish to the- scandal
which rocked Italy and became
a prime political football for the
Communists and Neo-Fascists. t
its height, it threatened to top
ple an Italian government and
forced the resignation of a for
eign minister Piccioni's father
and two Rome, police chiefs.
Attilio Piccioni resigned as
foreign minister when his son's
name was linked to the affair.
The elder Piccioni is now Italy's
chief delegate to the United Na
tions. The judges' decision, reached
early today after some seven
hours deliberation, came as no
surprise.

Eastern Oregon
Gets Big Storm
Ontario, Ore. (IP) Cloud,
bursts and hail hit two areas of
eastern Oregon Monday night
and covered U.S. Highway '20
with sliding mud in the Harper
area.
Highway maintenance crews
were sent out this morning to
clean the mud layer from several
spots about five miles west of
Harper junction to restore two
way traffic on the road. Traffic
was moving slowly through the
ooze muck on a one-way basis
early this morning.
State patrol officers said hail
piled up on the ground to depths
of two inches and the downpour
eroded deep ruts in cattle ranges.
The hard rain and hail also hit
the Ironside area about 90 miles
west of here on U.S. highway 26,
but no damage was reported. A
state patrolman said the hail
stones were bouncing three feet
off the pavement at the height of
the shower.

Murphy Enigma
Subject of Hearing

Charles Porter (D-Ore.) said to
day that a House foreign affairs
subcommittee would hold a hear
ing June 4 on the disappearance
of Gerald Murphy, Eugene, Ore.,
airman, who vanished last year
in the Dominican Republic.
Porter has charged Murphy
was killed on orders of the Do
minican government after he
became involved in the politics
of that country's dictator. He
has asked both houses of Con
gress to determine whether a
full-scale investigation should be
launched.
College Tuition
Declared Too Low
' Portland (IP) Oregon's inde
pendent colleges were told Mon
day they aren't charging enough
tuition.
1 W. Homer Turner, executive
director of a government pro
gram of aid-to-education grants
to private schools, conferred
with presidents of 10 accredited
independent colleges comprising
the Oregon Colleges foundation.
"Partly through competitive
inability, partly through lack of
public realism, there is not a
single public or private institu
tion of higher education in
America today which is pricing
its educational product at full
cost," Turner said.
He said the cost of educating a
student averages around $1,800
a year and is "heading for
S2,000." He said the median tui
tion is about $800. "Somebody,
at some point, is subsidizing
$1,000 of that cost," he said.
Officials from Willamette, Pa
cific, University of Portland,
Reed College Lewis and Clark,
Linfield, Cascade, Marylhurst,
Multnomah College and Mt. An
gel Women's College attended
the meeting. ,
Judge Reverses Self;
Reporter Absolved
Memphis, Tenn. (IP) A judge
has reversed his decision holding
a reporter for the Scripps-How-ard
Memphis Press-Scimitar in
in contempt of court for calling
one of the judge's rulings "stu
pid." Traffic Court Judge John Col
ton Monday returned an $11 fine
to reporter Menno Duerksen say
ing that after "long considera
tion" he decided the comment
was not contemptuous because it
was made some distance from
the court.
Duerksen said it was made
Saturday at the Memphis police
station press room where Col
ton accosted him and asked him,
"off the record," what Duerksen
thought of a ruling charging the
mayor with leaving the scene of
an accident.
