Salary Increase
Hearings Slated
Salem (UPD A tentative
plan to increase salaries of
Oregon state employees by
$4,700,000 in the two-year
period starting July 1 was an
nounced Monday.
The Oregon Civil Service
Commission said it would
hold a public hearing June
18-19. The plan calls for sal
ary increases ranging from
$20 to $25 a month. They
would go mainly to technical,
professional and supervisory
employees.
The Commission said the
scale of lower-paid jobs now
was competitive to what is
paid in private industry.
Any pay plan must be ap
proved by the State Emer
gency - Board, composed of
legislators.
The 1959 Legislature ap
proved $2,500,000 for salary
increases in departments
which are subject to legisla
tive appropriations. There al
so is that much money avail
able for wage hikes in de
partments which produce
their own revenue, such as
the Game and Highway Com
missions.
Sacked Buys
Coos Bay Hotels .
Coos Bay (UPD Sale of
the Tioga hotel here to Cen
tral Incorporated, a subsidi
ary corporation of World
Newspapers, owned and man
aged by Sheldon F. Sackett,
was announced Monday.
Purchase price of the Ti
oga, owned by W. A. Rush
light of Portland, was $275,
000 including all hotel equip

transfer is May 31.
Sackett at the same time
announcecd purchase of the
Marshfield hotel here for $40,
000 from James and Muriel
Pickert, Long Beach, Calif.,
with transfer expected late
this month. He said the
Marshfield will be used as
an annex to the larger hotel.
Sackett said at least $250,
000 worth of remodeling was
planned for the Tioga includ
ing complete refurnishing.
He also announced the
name would be changed to
the Beatrice, in memory of
Beatrice Walton Sackett, his
first wife, who died in 1947
after a long illness.

responsible for the Giant's run
in the eighth.
Solons Lead Cut
The win, Fisher's second
straight over Sacramento,
narrowed the Solons' lead
over second place San Diego
to 2Vi games. The Padres
were idle, as was Salt Lake
City.
In other games, Vancouv
er belted 16 hits off a trio of
Spokane moundsmen for an
11-5 win, and Seattle outlast
ed Portland, 7-5.
Pinch-hitter Hal Bevan con
nected for a grand-slam horn'
er in the eighth inning to
break a 3-3 deadlock and give
Seattle the win. Elmer Valo
was safe on an error, Eric
Rodin singled and Ed Win-
ceniak walked to set the stage
for Bevan's shot.
The Beavers came back
with two runs in the bottom
of the same inning but were
unable to bridge the gap left
by Bevan s four-bagger.
Heayy Hitting
Ron Hansen and Marv
Breeding paced Vancouver's
attack against Spokane. Han
sen belted a homer and three
singles to drive in three runs,
while Breeding collected a
pair of doubles and a single
to send home four more run
ners. Erv Palica went the dis
tance for the Mounties to col
lect his third triumph of the
season. He was touched for a
three-run homer by Don Miles
in the third and a solo shot
by Tony Roig in the sixth but
was staked to a substantial
enough lead to go the route.
Connie Grob, who had
hurled 19 consecutive score
less innings going into the
game, was tagged with his
second setback against five
wins. The Indians gave him
little support, contributing a
total of five errors.

Help Needed for
Railroad Service
Washington (UPD The In
terstate Commerce Commis
sion says help from federal,
state and local governments
is needed to keep railroad
passenger service from dying
out in the United States.
The ICC recommended re
peal of the 10 per cent fed
eral excise tax on passenger
fares and revision of state
and local laws to ease the
tax burden on the railways.
The recommendations were
part of a 22,000-word report
issued Monday following a
three-year investigation of the
railroad passenger train defi
cit which amounted to $610
million last year. .
Experimentation by rail
roads of new types of coaches,
sleeping cars, dining and
other facilities also was rec
ommended. Greater patronage of rail
road services by Defense De
partment, Post Office De
partment and other federal
agencies also was urged.

Whitt Takes
Open Title
Memphis, Term. IUPD A
brilliant recovery shot from
the rough paid off today to
the tune of $3,500 for Don
Whitt for his playoff victory
in the Memphis Open golf
tournament.
Whitt won the top prize by
defeating Gary Player of Jo
hannesburg, South Africa, on
the second hole of a sudden
death playoff after Al Bald

been eliminated on the first
extra hole. The three golfers
had tied at the end of 72
holes at 272.

but then fired an iron shot
to within eight feet of the pin
and sank the putt for a birdie
three. Player matched that
but Balding took a bogey five
and was eliminated. Whitt
had a par four on the second
hole and that was good
enough to win when Player

Art Wall of Pocono Manor,
Pa. narrowly missed the play
off when they each shot 273.
