Even for a Dog Family Trixie the family dog was about to become a mother. The children of the family were excited; - they asked many questions and made many plans. The parents dis cussed and finally decided it would be better off if the dog were taken out to a friend's farm, and kept there until the puppies were big enough to get around by themselves. During the discussions. while the children were in bed, the dog Trixie, hearing her name mentioned, pricked up her ears and listened. She knew, by some dog-know ledge, that she was the sub ject of the talks. The friends of the family, out in the country, said they "would be glad to keep the dog, that she could have a nice bed of straw out in the small barn where it was quiet, and warm." So it was decided, without the consent or approval of the one most concerned, the dog herself. Going Away The children were told that Trixie was going away, for a few days but when she re turned she would have a fam ily. Three days later the fam ily received a telephone call from their friends on the farm; "Trixie was the moth er of four cuddly puppies. Both mother and babies were Beginners-LOOK!

Toward evening of the same day another hur ried telephone call informed the dog's owners that only two puppies were left in the straw nest. Trixie, too, they said, was gone. A search by the farm fam ily proved unsuccessful two puppies, along with the mother dog, just weren't in evidence. Later, the man on the farm reported that An other puppy had disappeared, leaving only one in the straw pile. And there was still no sign of the mother dog. Both families were wor ried now. It was decided not to tell the children. Feelings in the home were pretty low that night. The following morning a loud call came from one of the children; the child was excited; he rushed into the house yelling at the top of his voice; "Come out in the garage, there are three little puppies there on Trix ie's bed." The parents rushed out, there they were, three blind little dogs snuggled together on the old blanket. As they watched, the telephone rang; "all the puppies are gone now, and we haven't seen Trixie either." "The nest in the straw is empty." "Everything is all right" the lady told her friend, "three pups are now in the garage, and the dog is just coming up the drive now with the fourth pup in her mouth; Trixie has brought them all home." Trixie had made four round trips, covered a distance of nearly 80 miles, along count ry roads and city streets; but she had brought them all home. They were all together again. - (Released by The Register and Tribune Syndicate, 1959) 'Millionaire' Said Heavily in Debt Los Angeles-UPD-A. C.

No. 2 DRY 2 2X A V Per M i PAT & LDERS 2802 Crater PHONE SP 1 Friendliness Displayed by Americans mpresses Russian Editor's note: Oleg Kalugin. a 24-year-old graduate of the Uni versity of Leningrad, Is in the United States studying at the Col umbia University School of Jour nalism as part of the U.S.-Soviet cultural exchange program. He ar rived in New York three months ago and will remain until the fall. In the following dispatch, he gives his impressions of American life and Americans as he has found them. By OLEG KALUGIN Written for UPI New York -UPD- In a spa cious, brightly-lighted room of the U.S. Embassy in Moscow a bland good-humored con sular official was talking to a group og Soviet students who were going to study in Ameri can universities in accordance with the Soviet-American cul tural agreement of 1958. The atmosphere was friendly and warm and somehow it toned down discontent and chagrin caused by the two months' de lay in issuing visas. Fortunately, this atmos phere of friendliness has be come a characteristic feature of our stay here, and when asked about their impressions of this country, the Soviet students, in all likelihood, will be inclined to single out this hospitable, really friendly re ception they got in the U.S. from both officials responsible for the exchange program and ordinary American citizens. All Sorts of Visits Actually, hardly a single day passes without all sorts of visits, invitations and dis cussions. At times we are so overwhelmed by them that we cannot devote due time to our studies. It is very gratifying to see that despite the cold war and rather strained relations be tween the Soviet Union and the United States the Soviet students have been greeted here with warmth and cordi ality. We all hope that the time will come when friendli ness and mutual respect now existent in our relationships with American students will become part and parcel of Soviet-American relations. Three months' stay is too short a period to judge so big a country as the U.S.A., and the impressions we have to date may appear conflicting and superficial. However we have been particularly impres sed by the interest in the Sov iet Union. Little Knowledge) Many Americans have very little if any knowledge of the Soviet Union and its policies. Still others have quite a fan tastic picture of the country but all of them want to know more. This is really import ant, for with accurate knowl edge of each other we can better understand our goals and aspirations. Four Soviet students studyr ing at Columbia University were pleased to find New Yorkers helpful and consid erate. New York itself is, of course, a tremendous city with a lot of things to see. I personally liked very much some pieces of modern architecture in New York, especially those magnificent buildings made of aluminum, concrete and glass which are located at Park and Madison ave. It is a pity that such buildings have not yet re placed numerous far less im pressive houses in downtown and uptown Manhattan. We have also been struck by a sharp difference between the spic-and-span look of the Fifth ave. area and heavily littered streets in other parts of the city. Some of us visited places outside New York City and I, for instance, found the Ameri can countryside immensely at tractive, though perhaps too urbanized. We have discovered that American students are very industrious and enterprising, and like all students are fond of jokes and side-splitting hu mor. Columbia u n i versity provides fairly good opportun ities for studies. However we have been astounded by the high cost of education here which, in our opinion, makes it difficult for a certain num ber of young people to get ad equate training and instruc tion. MIKE'S SERVIC Lake Hwy. 2-8376 SI Among other things, we have been favorably impress ed by the high level of me chanization and efficiency in various fields of everyday life here. Supermarkets, kitchen appliances, vending machines were very engaging indeed, whereas the highways and the motels proved to be most fas cinating. Useful Program We believe that the ex change program is useful to us as individuals since it broadens our knowledee of the world and enables us to better understand the Ameri can people. We also believe that this exchange will be equally use ful to our American counter parts in the Soviet Union. What is far more important, however, is that such exchang es help create a new atmo Mattson, Levine Kidnap Cases Remain Unsolved in FBI Files Washington -0.TP- The two recent baby snatchings in New York and the even more re cent one in California were happily solved in a matter of days. But there are two other major kidnapings which the FBI has been unable to solve in more than 20 years, man ring its glittering record in dealing with such crimes. Both kidnapings, still under active investigation, date back to the late 1930s. And both in volved boys, aged 10 and 12. The first occurred early in the evening of Dec. 27, 1936. Four youngsters were playing in a room at the home of Dr. W. W. Mattson in Tacoma, Wash. They were Charles Fletcher Mattson, 10; his brother Billy, 14; his sister Muriel, 16 and her 16-year-old friend, Vir ginia Chatfield. Masked Man Enter At about 9 p.m., a masked man banged on the French doors with a blue steel revol ver and broke Into the house. As he enterd the room he was wearing a scarf across the bridge of his nose. The mask slipped, however, and the children got a look at his face. He appeared to be about five-feet-seven or eight inches tall, slight in build, coarse featured and between the ages of 25 and 35. He wore a tan checkered cap, dark trou sers and a zipper jacket. He spoke with an accent. At first, the intruder de manded money of the fright ened Mattson children. Told there was none, he seized 10-year-old Charles and said, we'll take this kid." As he backed out of the room with his victim, the kid naper dropped a prepared ran som note demanding $28,000 in cash for the safe return of the child. But he never con tacted the Mattsons and the money was never paid. Body Found Nor was Charles Mattson ever seen alive again. On the morning of Jan. 11, 1937, his body was found about 609 feet from the side of a road six miles south of Everett, Wash. The boy had been badly beaten. When discovered, he had been dead perhaps as long as 10 days. An exhaustive in quiry was conducted. It has never ended. Dozens of people have called at FBI offices through out the United States and have confessed committing this kid-nap-murder.

Hiway SP 3-3160 Exchange Pupils sphere in the relations be tween our two countries the atmosphere of mutual con fidence and peaceful cooper ation. Oleg Kalugin was selected as a student in the U.S.-Soviet exchange program because he knows English, was a bright student and enjoyed a good reputation. Until last June, young Kalugin told UPI, he thought he would be an English teach er. That's what he graduated as last June from the Univer sity of Leningrad. But the Soviet Ministry for Higher Education asked if he'd like to study journalism, believing him to be well-qualified. He said yes. Now, he is prepared to return to the Sov it Union, probably in the fall, and join a Russian newspaper persons have been motivated by a desire for publicity. Oth ers have been suffering from a mental or emotional disturb ance. Logical Confessions In some instances, the con fessions have been so logical and clear that an intensive in quiry was needed to prove the confessors' innocence. . Through the fall of 1958, the FBI had uncovered 25,725 suspects in the Mattson case. Of this total, 25,600 have been eliminated and 125 suspects still are being investigated. The tragic kidnap - murder of Peter David Levine, the 12-year-old son of Murray Le vine, a New York attorney, also remains an open case in the annals of the FBI. The boy disappeared on the afternoon of Feb. 24, 1938, Alaska B-Girls Reach End Juneau, Alaska- (UPD -Alaska's B-girls, the "drink up" kids of the 49th state, appar ently have reached the end of the trail.

He is five-eight, 24 years old, has blond hair and is fair skinned. His hobby at home is listen ing to classical music from his library of 200 records, but he also has a short-wave re ceiver and says he has spent many hours listening to the English-language Voice of America broadcasts and the British Broadcasting corpora tion. "I listen to it to improve by English," he said in his re markably good English. after attending the Albert Leonard Junior High school in New Rochelle, N. Y. Between Feb. 24 and March 1, 1938, the Levines were con tacted three times by the kid naper or kidnapers. A ransom of $60,000 was demanded. The third and last ransom negoti ation reduced the ransom to $30,000. Although the instruc tions of the kidnapers were complied with by the Levine family, no ransom money was paid. On May 29, 1938, at about 6:35 p.m., the body of Peter Levine was found and identi fied from his clothing. The body had washed up from the Long Island Sound near the breakwater o f Davenport Neck, New Rochelle, N.Y. The hunt for the kidnap killer still goes on. dance hall girls flocked to the territory by boat to carve their own pages in Alaska's gaudy history. Miners found in the dance halls an oasis of gaiety and, in the process, often departed poorer but happier. Many of the dance hall girls found romance in the territory and later became among the most respected citizens of the northland. In later years, B-girls took over the practice of enticing customers to "drink up" in various Alaska night spots. Many doubled as entertain ers. Bill to Governor "It's my turn to entertain the boys, honey, why don't you buy another round?" was a standard hit. This bit of Alaskana died forever when the Senate passed an anti B-girl measure by a vote of 19-1 this week. The bill now goes before Act ing Gov. Hugh Wade for his signature.
