    Injured Hiker Ffown
From Kings Canyon
Park by Helicopter
Sequoia, Kings Canyon Na
tional Parka, Calif. V An in
jured hiker was evecuated from
rugged terrain of Kings Canyon
National Park today in a high al
titude flight by an Air Force
helicopter.
John F. Scott, 23, a University
of California graduate student
from Stockton, Calif., was load
ed onto the craft in less than
four minutes at the south end
of Palisades lake. The H21 heli
copter soared into the air at
7:52 a.m. (p.s.t.) for the 30 mile
return flight to Bishop on the
eastern slope of the Sierra Ne
vada. Instructions Radioed
A rescue party with Scott
spotted the helicopter 10 min
utes earlier. The craft landed

1st Billy Graham tackles "big
money" today, precisely where
he he pes his words will have
their most pointed effect in
the heart of the Wall st. finan
cial district.
The Nortn Carolina Baptist
minister holts an outdoor rally
at Nassau and Wall sts., on the
steps of the U. S. Subtreasury
building where George Washing
ton delivered his historic first
inaugural address.
On of Graat Failings
Graham's 25-minute talk to
the :en of high finance was not
to be bis first on bow "money
corrupts," as he puts it. He has
said repeatedly in his Madison
Square Garden sermons that ma
terialism, "the greed for and
love of money" is one of Ameri
ca's great failings.
He has also said that "the ac
cepted rule in business today is
lying and cheating stabbing
competitors in the back, all for
the sake of making more
money."
Graham announced Tuesday
night before his Garden sermon
that "there's a good possibility"
he will conduct a short crusade
in Buffalo, N.Y., this fall, as a
"logical follow-up" to his New
York crusade.
H announced also that he
wilfe conduct a crusade in Char
lotte, N.C., in the fall of 1958.

Bee Population
Causes Concern
St. 'Louis W The city is
buzzin, cousin. The bees are the
most this year.
The bee population here has
increased to the point where all
available hives have been taken,
and tl'ie honey manufacturers are
swarrning all over the place, on
telephone poles, trees and shrub
bery and a few back porches.
The Humane Society, a famil
iar refuge for citizens troubled
with animal or insect problems,
was all out of answers for the
protflem that has kept its tele
phone line humming.
Fiutz K. Grolock, manager of
the society, blamed the weather
for the homeless bees.
'We've had a lot more rain
thaio usual," he said, "and bee
experts tell me the population
increases rapidly during such
a period."
Orolock said the society nor
mally would call on beekeepers
who register with the organiz
ation, but they are all overload
ed. An emergency plea for bee
keepers brought little result.
''Three people have called in.
Gi.'olock said, "but they weren't
much help. One man said he d
take one swarm, but that would
be? like trying to empty a barrel
with an eye-dropper. The other
tvro wanted to be paid for dis
posing of the bees, and we just
can't do that."
Brolock said much of the ap
prehension the average person
feels about the bees is unjusti
fied, "I understand," he said, "that
tfiere is not as much hazard in
volved as people believe. Swarm
ing bees are just not in a stinging
wood."
Asked if this conclusion was
the result of personal experi
ence, Grolock shook his head em
phatically. "No," he said, "not at all. I'm
satisfied to accept what I read
about bees.'

MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE ELEVEN
New York 'V A piece of
Wimbledon silverware parlayed
with the Yankee dollar finally
paid off today with the revela
tion that Aussie tennis star Lew
Hoad turned professional three
months ago.
The time in between has been
consumed by what promoter
Jack Kramer calls a "secretive
game of cops and rooDers.
I Actually it was a cloak and dag
! ger opus which was more of a
; who-cares than a whodunit.
I Technically Hoad has been a
pro since April 17 and his sole
, aim since that time was to win
at Wimbledon lor an extra
$25,000.
Hoad stopped to see Kramer
en route to Europe and at that
time they put the deal on paper
and shipped it to Hoad's attor
ney in Australia. Kramer offered
him $125,000 over a two-year
span if he won at Wimbledon;
and only $100,000 if he lost
the big one in Britain.
Examined by Doctor
Hoad was examined by Kra
mer's doctors to see whether the
blond bomber was pulling a fast
one because of an arthritic con
dition and pronounced a good
gamble. Hoad went to Europe,
worked out the kinks in his sore
back and arm, breezed at Wim
bledon and came back to pick
up the marbles.
All of which means that, bar
ring an actual signature, the
agreement was in the bag that
the amateur fathers were hold
ing. Hoad takes a very matter of
fact view of the whole bit.
"I have to get mine while I
can," he admitted, looking very
little the polished pro in his tie
less shirt and brown suede shoes
and socks. "I never know what
this back of mine will do."
Kramer is, of course, too
smart to be caught off base. He
has an escape clause permitting
cancellation of the contract if
Hoad comes up lame and halt
for a period of four weeks.
Pancho's Dim View
Big Jake's oyster isn't filled
with pearls, however. Pancho
Gonzales, the world professional
champion, takes a dim view of
Hoad turning pro at this point.
His fear is that Hoad will take
a cuffing in two tournaments
as well as in a European tour
with Ken Rosewall, Frank Sedg
man and Pancho Segura. Thus
the shine would be off the apple
when Gonzales opens a 100
match tour against Hoad in Aus
tralia come January.
There has been much talk be
tween Kramer and Gonzales
dealing with possible contractual
lawsuits and appearances before
"the man in the robe." All prob
ably will be straightened out
in good time.
Meanwhile, with Hoad notori
ous for playing careless tennis
when he isn't in the mood,
Kramer has set up a bonus sys
tem to keep him on his toes.
Now Larrupin Lew is ready to
take spring training in August,
pro style, and Kramer's thr'ee
month plan has really put the
pros in business.

Oregonian Sees
New Guinea as
Lumber Factor
Manokwari TPl An Oregon
trained lumberman predicts that
the forests of New Guinea will
soon be a world factor in both
the hard and soft wood markets.
G. J. Borgmart, a Hollander
who learned much of his lumber
ing at Coos Bay, Ore., has just
built Netherlands New Guinea's
largest sawmill, using Scottish
and Swedish equipment, Papuan
labor and American techniques.
"We have unlimited timber
reserves all over New Guinea,"
Borgmart said, "and a large part
of it is economically accessible."
The Dutch already have de
veloped an overseas market for
their giant peeler logs which are
being shipped to European and
Australian plywood mills. Long
range plans call for construction
of plywood mills in Dutch New
Guinea where cheaper produc
tion costs are an important fac
tor. "The country here is similar to
the Pacific Northwest in ter
rain," Borgmart explained, "and
we are able to float the soft
woods to the mill in rafts along
the coast. The hardwoods, how
ever, must be trucked to the
mills."
Labor Problem
The new mill just completed
by the Dutch government is lo
cated at the new capital of the
Western District of N.N.G., Man
okwari, and adjoins a new two-million-dollar
shipyard which
the government just opened.
Borgmart said the biggest
problem at his twin-band-saw
mill was labor. Eighty per cent
of his staff, including his saw
yers, are Papuan natives whose
grandfathers were head-hunting
cannibals.
"We have nearly a hundred
Papuans at work," the technical
director said, "and we have
found them unusually adept at
mechnics. They are all working
under Dutch leadermen, and it
takes a bit of time to train them,
but their retentive powers are
good."
All production of tha new Ma
nokwari mill is being used in
Dutch New Guinea at present,
but when the mill reaches its
maximum output. Borgmart
hopes to quadruple the produc
tion. "The woods of New Guinea,"
he claimed, "are amongst the
finest in the world, and, with
modern milling methods, we
hope to make the lumbering in
dustry one of the most important
in Netherlands New Guinea, and
one capable of supplying the
huge Southeast Asia and Aus
tralian markets."

Frick, Minor Loop Heads
Lay Groundwork for Future
By LEO H. PEDERSEN
United Press Sports Editor
St. Louis tfl The minor
leagues, faced with a wholesale
series of franchise shifts if the
Giants decide
Brooklyn Dodgers and New
York Giants decide to go to
California, met with Baseball
Commissioner Ford Frick today
to lay the groundwork for their
future operations.
The presidents of the top
seven minor leagues in the na
tion were summoned by Frick
to the conference.
"Actually,,it is an exploratory
meeting and we'll just play it
by ear," Fricks aid. "But the
minors have to be prepared for
possible changes."
Those changes could be the
and a single by Herb Anderson.
Salem jumped to a five-run
lead in the first five innings
against Tri-City to coast in on
Vern Kindsfather's five-hitter.
It was Kindfather's 12lh win of
the season against six losses.
Gene Tanselli picked up his
first homer of the year with
none on in the third.
most drastic in baseball history
should the Dodgers decide to
go to Los Angeles and the
Giants to San Francisco. That
would not only take two of the
best clubs out of the Pacific
Coast league, but would jeopar
dize three others San Diego,
Hollywood and Sacramento.
New Draft Proposal
To survive, the Pacific Coast
league might have to draft as
many as five clubs from other
minor leagues to stay in busin
ess. It also was expected th?t
Frick would try to sell the mi
nor league chieftains on his new
draft proposal, which the com
missioner deems necessary if
baseball is to circumvent any
anti-trust legislation.
Under the Frick proposal, a
minor league player would be
subject to unrestricted major
league draft after four years.
Under the present regulations,
only one player from each mi
nor league club may be drafted
thus permitting the major league
clubs with talent-rich farm clubs
to keep their promising young
sters in the minors as long as
they wished.
