Try and Stop Me -By BENNETT CERF- A HEARTLESS BOSS called his pretty, young secretary into his private sanctum one afternoon, carefully locked the door, and said, "As Ive already told you, you're the loveliest thing in this office." Visions of a mink coat passed through the see's mind. "Furthermore," continued the boss, "you dress nicely, and all my friends think I'm a Kicky fellow to have you at my beck and call." "Oh, thanks, thanks," mur mured the secrary demurely. "Enjoy them while you can," said the boss, his voice changing, "because right now we are going to discuss your spelling, punctuation and typing." "My 12-year-old son," boasted a nouveau riche mother, "is tha brightest boy in that swell, new, private school we found for him. Already he has dazzled his teachers in French, German and algebra.

Highway Case Rule Given By Thornton Salem HP) Attorney Gen eral Robert Y. Thornton said Friday that members of the leg islative assembly are not pro hibited from acting as attor neys for defendants in state highway right-of-way condem nation proceedings. The state constitution prohib its members of the .Legislature from acting as attorneys in pro secution of claims against the state, but a federal court decis ion was held that right-of-way cases are not "claims" In the sense expressed by the consti tution. The opinion was asked by the State Highway Department. The Oregon Supreme Court also held in 1955 that lawyer legislators who acted as attor neys for plaintiffs in prosecuting accident claims against the State Industrial Accident Commission were not violating the same pro vision of the state constitution. Secrecy Often Breaks On New Model Cars Washington HP) Donald E. Keyhole, flying saucer expert, predicted Saturday that when man reached the moon he may find it already being used as a base by beings from another world. By LLOYD NOTHARD United Press Correspondent Detroit (IP) The auto indus try tries hard to keep its new models under wraps until they are introduced in dealerships throughout the nation, but there are usually a few slips each year such as the appearance this week of a 1958 Ford on a used car lot at Muskogee, Okla. The new Fords aren't sched uled to go on public display until Nov. 7. An industry spokesman point ed out it is mandatory that new models reach the dealers well in advance of introduction so the dealers have a good supply of cars to show to the public. "Occasionally, a dealer will take it upon himself to sell a new car to a used car lot for a premium price," the spokesman said. "There isn't much the com panies can do about it since, un der law, each dealer is an indi vidual businessman and can con duct his business as he sees fit." Agreements Not Binding The spokesman said dealer francises contain "gentlemen" agreements, but it was doubtful any court would recognize the agreements if a company tried to take away the franchise of a dealer for selling a new car to a used car dealer prior to intro duction. A new Edsel appeared on a used car lot in Cleveland sev eral weeks before that car made its public debut last month and the company traced the sale to a New York dealer. The company contacted the dealer who agreed to send tele grams to all other Edsel dealers apalogizing for selling the car before introduction day. "Some used car dealers thrive on 'bootlegging' practices," the spokesman said. "They know new cars attract crowds and try to buy them for display pur poses both before and after in troduction." Premature Publicity a Problem The sale of new cars to used car dealers or any other un authorized persons is referred to as "bootlegging." Another problem which besets the auto industry in the pre introduction weeks is the pub lishing of stories and photo graphs before release dates. For example, one magazine, Popular Science, reached sub scribers this week and contained photographs of several 1958 cars which have not yet been in troduced. "There are usually one or two cases each year when a maga zine will hit the streets with photographs of the new cars be fore they are introduced in deal erships," the spokesman said. "It happened once last year, and chances are it will happen next year, too." Spy Charges Set On Master Sergeant Washington (IP) The Army Saturday prepared to move against an Army master sergeant who admitted selling U. S. mili tary secrets to Russia under the stimulus of sex and vodka. Confinement of MSgt. Roy A. Rhodes, 40, was disclosed by the Army following the conviction Friday in New York of Russian spy Rudolph Ivanovitch Abel. Rhodes was a government wit ness in the trial of the Russian secret police colonel, who faces a possible death penalty for mas terminding an espionage ring that slipped U. S. atomic and military secrets to the Soviet Union. Bob Edmondson was" taken to the Rogue Valley Memorial hos pital Monday, Oct. 21, and re leased Wednesdays. Oct. 25.
