'' from fallout is fir below the dan ger level. Berkeley, Ctlif V Two prominent University of Cah fornn scientists nave rejected the appeal of Dr. Linus Paulina for a world jreement to end atomic bomb tests. The scientists are Dr. K. S. Pitzer. dean of the College of Chemistry, and Dr. Joel H. Hil dfbrand, professor emeritus of chemistry. Pitzer declared Pauling's ap peal as a "moat unfortunate action and one which I cannot support." Hildebrand declared that sci entists "should be sure of their around before claiming scien tific authority for alarmist as sertions." Pauling, head of the division of chemistry and chemical engi- j neering at the California Insti tute of Technology, released Monday an "appeal" bearing the signatures of 2.000 scientists. The ! appeal asked for a. world ban on 1 nuclear testing. r Liorar.e ; .ri;, Donations Sought For Fire Victims -ft several hundreds or Diseased or Defora.e) Dr Jam versity of can be sure thousands or tens of thousands or perhaps more persons will be diseased or deformed or will die prematurely or be otherwise im paired as a coisrquence of fall out if the present rates of testing continue." Both stressed in their pre pared statements beore the House-Senate Atomic Radiation Subcommittee that compared to other causes of dath and injury inirliio'ing natural mutation the number is relatively small. However, Muller called con tinuation of test explosions by East and West a "monstrous mis take of policy." He sa:d any nuclear war "even with p:esent techniques would result in the cataclysmic ruina tion of humanity in general." "The means ai destruction are now so advaiced on both sides that further advances by one side alone could not prevent this outcome," he said. Radiation Going Up Crow said the nuclear tests are steadily increasing the amount of radiation to which the world is exposed. "The total harm to the popu iation as measured by effect on future generations is strictly proportional jV the total amount of radiation received by the re productive cells of the popula tion," he said. "This means there is no such thing as a "safe" dose of radiation to the population." "No increase in radiation for any reason should occur unlesa it offers some compensating ben efit for mankuid." The Atomic .Energy Commis sion, has maintained that the amount of radiation resulting Chiloquin Man Gels 15 Years in Prison J Klamath Falls W Bennie Raymond Belgnrrie, 25.

New York 'IP Billy Graham I announced Monday night that his i New York crusade has been so ! successful it will be extended through July 21 three weeks beyond the original closing date. The jubilant evangelist also told an enthusiastic Madison Square Garden crowd of 17.000 that he plans to preach his June 30 sermon in New York's Polo Grounds and his July 21 sermon in Yankee stadium. Gould Handle Thousands When Graham takes his re vival into the open air he could preach to 52.000 persons at once in th Polo "rounds, home of the New York Giants, and to 07,000 io the home grounds of the champion Yankees. The cruade's executive com mittee had planned originally to run the revival 6' a weeks, at a cost of nearly 5900,000. Commit tee chairman Roger Hull said Monday night the extension will cost at least $55,000 a week and could run total expenses for the crusade over $1 million. The crusade is being paid for by subscription, of member churches of the Protestant Coun cil of New York and hundreds of individual and businesses, as well as nightly offerings in the Garden. May Be Extended Hull indicated the committee may extend the revival even be yond July 21, depending on fi nance and on whether New Yorkers continue to fill Madison Square Garden to near-capacity, as has been the case so far. AO estimated 357,000 persons have attended Graham's sermons since they started 20 days ago. As of Monday night, when 501 persons made "decisions for Christ," 12.145 "decisions" have been recorded. I longings were destroyed in the jfire. It was reported there is a spe I cial need for pillows, bedding, towels and clothing. A refrigera tor, washer and sewing machine are also being sought. The children include three girls, ages 15. 12 and 8 months. There are four bovs ranging in age from 5 years to about 2 years. I The family is temporarily stay ing at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Paul O. Eckel. 2409 Happy Val ley rd., Mcdford. They expect to pitch a tent at the location of their former residence on the Gold Ray Dam rd., and return there soon.

Yofe of Confidence Due in Italy Crisis Rome iff Premier-designate Adone Zoli goes before the Senate today for the first of two confidence votes that will determine whether he becomes premier in fact as well as in name. Zoli, a member of the Christ ian Democratic party, hopes to head Italy's first one-party gov ernment since 1953. He was given a slim chance of winning in the Senate vote but House approval may be different. The most crucial test comes later this week when he goes before the Chamber of Deputies. His Christian Democratic party holds 261 of the 590 seats in the chamber and he will need out side help to win a majority. Italy's present government cri sis was precipitated two weeks ago when the right wing Social ists withdrew from the govern ment coalition. Premier Antonio Segni resigned and President Giovanni Gronchi asked Zoli to form a new government. The secret ef vodfca enjoyment Is in Wolfschmidf '45 Qt. W.-lfscHmidt Ltd . Dundalk.

Of special interest is the brand of baseball in prospect, with the reorganized Rogue Val ley league furnishing teams of exceptional ability. It is not dif ficult for members to have watched games in the big leagues, to feel at home with the kind of play in hitting, fielding and pitching that is brought out. There is still much more to be done on the field. Frank don ning reminds those who have already voiced suggestions. Burt Sims, the engineering officer who was in charge of construc tion, indicates he is open to ideas that will add to conven ience of patrons. Clarence Bryan, in charge of the canteen, is planning some changes in operations. The real benefit, as was plan ed by the management, is re flected in the interest shown by the veterans themselves, especi ally the wheel chair men, who have had provisions made for them in ramps and "parking" areas. The heavy wire screen around ail stadium seating is an extra protection from balls hit back into the stands. A fully equipped first aid station is close to the entrance.
