the couple was killed with a
Boy Scout knife belonging to
Melvin Jr., but the knife that
the boy had reported missing

Political Maverick
Astounds Experts;
In Nevada Primary
Reno-flJPD-A young political
maverick who boldly crusaded
against a multimillionaire he
charged sought to buy control
of Nevada won the Democrat
ic nomination for governor
in the primary election Tues
day. . Grant Sawyer, 39, district
attorney of Elko county,
astounded Nevada political ex
perts by handing a thumping
defeat to three fellow Demo
crats by a lopsided margin.
He will seek to unseat Re
publican Gov. Charles H. Rus
sell, 54, unopposed for renom
ination and seeking an unprec
edented third term. The sur
prising outcome of the pri
mary balloting gave promise
of a rousing battle over the
governorship few Nevadans
Lhad thought likely previously.
sawyer s ballot opponents
were Attorney General Har
vey Dickerson, Las Vegas As
semblyman George Franklin
Jr., and William Pate, a po
litical unknown from Reno
who barely made the tabula
tion totals. t
Real Target
But his real target was E.
L. Cord, wealthy one-time
auto maker who two years
ago interested himself in Ne
vada politics on a major scale.
Sawyer bluntly charged Cord
gave Dickerson strong finan
cial and political backing in
an effort to gain control of
the governor's office with its
major voice in supervision of
Nevada's legalized gambling..
Eisenhower Plans
Fishing, Talks
Newport, R.I.' OJPD Presi
dent Eisenhower planned for
an hours-long . deep-sea fish
ing trip today before taking
up the admittedly serious For
mosa Straits situation , in a
face-to-face conference with

ter Dulles.
The President late Tuesday
summoned Dulles to fly here

The summons followed three
telephone conferences with
Dulles in Washington within

However, the White House
declined to term the situation
at the Nationalist-held is-
lands off the China mainland
as at an emergency stage. -And
the President made ar
rangements for a fishing trip
off Block Island, weather per
mitting. He planned to go by
helicopter the 25 miles to
Block Island to get on a Navy
boat for six hours or . so of
fishing for tuna and blues. ,
Eisenhower spent . a busy
three hours Tuesday after
noon in his vacation office at
the Navy base administration
building . on Coasters Harbor
Island.
He signed 105 bills and ve
toed 12. There still remained
18 bills that he must act upon
before midnight next Satur
day. ' . ;

MAIL TRIBUNE, Medford, Ore.,
Drivers Reminded
Salem Oregon drivers have
been reminded by the depart
ment of motor vehicles, that
"every school bus is an auto
matic stop sign" when stopped
on a city street, rural road or
highway. Also pointed out
was that Oregon law requires
traffic to stop on a two-lane
highway when meeting or
overtaking a school bus which
has halted to load or unload
children.
' On highways having three
or more lanes, vehicles must
stop only if they are travel
ing in the same direction as
the bus. After having stopped,
vehicles must not proceed as
long as any children are leav
ing -the bus or crossing the
highway.
Oregon, law also contains
the provision that a designat
ed -speed of 20 miles per hour
or less must be observed when
passing school buildings,
grounds or street crossings
"during school recess or while
children are going to or from
school during opening and
closing hours." .
.;. The significance of the need
for "all due safety precaution
is emphasized by the depart
ment of motor vehicles rec
ords showing that last year
'there were nine fatal pedes
trian accidents, and nine fa
tal bicycle accidents in the 5
to 14-year school-age group.
'Parents whose youngsters
are entering the first grade
can reduce the danger to their
children if they, will show
