Displays, Exhibits
Now Dismantled as
Kiwanis Fair Ends
.The dismantling of displays
and exhibits continued at the
Medford armory today, fol
lowing the closing last night
of the four-day Kiwanis coun
ty fair-a closing that fair of
ficials viewed with mixed
feelings.
Satisfaction- with a job well
done by entertainers and ex
hibitors and more than 200
volunteer workers was mixed
with a feeling of disappoint
ment with an attendance
"considerably" below last
year.
Russ Jamison, manager of
the event, said today that
those who saw the show cer
tainly got their . money's
worth and that the fair, over
all, was considered a success.
S.000 Attend
But, he said, the attendance
figure for the four days-estimated
at about 8,000-was be
low the amount hoped for.
Proceeds from the fair are
to go to the Kiwanis dental
clinic, which provides care for
children of Jackson county.
The amount raised has not yet
been computed.
Russ Renner, general chair
man, complimented the ex
hibitors and participants and
said he looked forward to a
continuance of the county fair
tradition.
Jamison said that tentative
plans call for a continuance
of the event next year but
that it is dependent upon the
Kiwanis board of directors
and evidence of community
support for the fair.
"Countless hours and a lot
of hard work went into the
preparation for the fair,"
Jamison said, "and we hope
the public will show an inter
est in continuing the tradi
tion." Dismantling Tonight
Exhibitors are expected to
be moved out of the armory
by this evening, Jamison said,
and Kiwanis members will
continue the dismantling job
tonight.
Two distinguished visitors
to the fair were well-received
and this morning "Mrs. Ore-
gon," Mrs. Dorothy Jean
Chase, Eugene, returned to
her home while Mrs. Emma
Gatewood, Gallopolis, Ohio,
"the walking grandmother,"
is on a trip to California be
fore she returns to the Cen
tennial celebration in Port
land. At the next meeting of the
Kiwanis board of directors
possible action will be con
sidered against an up-state
amusement ride operator,
Jamison said, who "apparent
ly defaulted on our contract.
Jamison said he thought
the board could take "defi
nite" action against the con
cessionaire, who reportedly
was to have furnished me
chanical amusement rides.
Lack of Rides
Jamison said that he
thnueht the lack of rides pos
sibly hurt the attendance and
he said that other factors-

fair's disadvantage.
Yesterday's fair activities
included a sawdust scramble,
9 peanut scramble, a horse
show, a balloon-breaking con
test, and a greased pig con
test. ''We finished with a satis
fying feeling," Jamison said.
A. P. . Butler of 28 North
Farneberg rd. won $50 worth
of shrubbery from the Gar
den Center Nursery for iden
tifying the most species of
flowers in the Oregon native
fldwer display.
He named correctly 12 out
of the 20 species, giving both
the common and Latin names
of the plants.
Parachute Jumps
Saturday's parachute exhi
bition was
"spectacular" j
success, Jamison said. Morton
Gosset, president of the
Southern Oregon Sky Divers,
and club members put on a
number of skj diving exhibi
tions, including a 30 second
delayed drop.
The parachute that seemed
to attract public attention by
landing in the only tall tree
in the area did not have a
man attached to it, Jamison
explained, despite rumors
that developed.
It was a "dummy drop,"
used by the parachutists to
test the wind direction and
velocity.

Hatfield's Goal
Two Terms as
Oregon Governor
Portland - IUPD - Gov. Mark
Hatfield said Sunday "my am
bition is to serve as a two
term governor."
Hatfield made the remark
on a local television "show
moderated by ex-Gov. Robert
D. Holmes, the man Hatfield
defeated for governor in 1958.
He had been asked about re
ports that he might be a vice
presidential candidate next
year or seek a Senate seat.
"While talk of national tic
ket and senatorial possibili
ties is flattering," he said,
"my ambition is to serve as
a two-term governor."
Intention Disclaimed
The 37 - year - old governor
earlier disclaimed any inten
tion of running against Sen.
Richard L. Neuberger (D
Ore.) next year. He also said
last week he believed the Re
publicans would look to the
midwest for a vice presi
dential candidate. He has
been mentioned as a likely
candidate against Sen. Wayne
Morse in 1962.
The governor's office said
that if Hatfield serves two
full terms as governor he
would be the first man to do
so in this century in Oregon.
The late Gov. Earl Snell was
in his second term when kill
ed in a 1947 plane crash.
Members of the panel
which questioned Hatfield on
the program "Let's Face It"
were R. L. (Dick) Revenaugh,
managing editor of the Ore
gon City Enterprise-Courier;
Dr. John Swarthout, dean of
faculty at Portland State Col
lege, and ex-State Sen Rudie

Petitions for
Consolidation
Election Expected
Petitions for another elec
tion on consolidation of Phoe
nix and Talent school districts
will be presented tomorrow
night during a meeting of the
Jackson county school district
reorganization committee.
Miss Faye Carver, Phoenix,
and Mrs. Sam James, Talent,
brought the petitions to the
county school superintend
ent's office this morning for
checking. A total of 165 Phoe
nix citizens and 83 Talent
citizens have signed the peti
tion. State law requires at
least 50 signatures from Tal
ent and 100 from Phoenix,
according to the superintend
ent's office.
If the required number of
signatures are those of legal
ly registered voters, and if
the reorganization committee
approves an election, the
county school district bound
ary board will set the date.
Voled Down
The reorganization com
mittee had approved a motion
to permit a vote on consolida
tion of the two districts last
spring, but had given its ap
proval without formal recom
mendation. This means the
issue can be voted on contin
ually until settled, a spokes
man from the superintend
ent's office said. Last April
consolidation was voted down.
Meanwhile, the county
boundary board on Thursday,
Sept. 3, is expected to act on
petitions from Barnett rd.
area citizens requesting a por
tion of that area which in
cludes the new Rogue .Valley
hospital be joined with the
Medford school district. This
proposed annexation would
not include the Rogue Valley
manor now being built.
Separate Levies
The spokesmen also pointed
to a paragraph on the con
solidation petition which
states that "each district shall
remain solely liable for ex
isting bonded indebtedness
until such existing bonded in
debtedness is paid. This is ac
cording to state law."
If conspliation is authorized
the district can levy separate
annual levies, a spokesman
said. -
Advisory Council to
Tour Watershed
Two questions left un
answered in April will be dis
cussed by the Rogue River

cil when it makes a field trip
into the Ashland watershed
on Wednesday morning.
Forest Supervisor Carroll
Brown said that the questions
are:
1. Are we justified in keep
ing the Ashland watershed
closed-to all travel?
2. Should we develop picnic
spots in the watershed for
use of the public?

Five of Six Iowa
Prison Escapees
Nabbed by Police
Sixth Believed
Trapped in Field
Fort Madison, Iowa (UPD
An off-duty patrolman today
captured one of six convicts
who broke out of the Iowa
State Penitentiary Sunday.
Another fugitive, the last re
maining at large, was believed
trapped in a cornfield and
woods.
Penitentiary officials said
i Charles Wallerick, 25, was
seized by the patrolman in
Dallas City, 111., across the
Mississippi river from here..
Prison authorities reported
that the remaining fugitive,

escape.
Three others, Samuel Par
res, 40, Charles W. Carlyle,
30, and Ronald C. Bessler, 22,
invaded a minister's home and
held the minister's wife and
three children hostages at
knifepoint for nearly three
hours before they were dis
covered and captured.
Their presence was uncov
ered when a 17-year-old neigh
bor boy also being held as a
hostage, signalled inquiring
police by facial gestures that
he was talking under duress
when officers stopped at the
home during a house to house
search. .
The boy, Tom Thomas, was

Nelson said. . "They dropped
their knives and gave up."

Sfiffer Taxes Seen
If Voters Defeat
Measure in 1960
Portland - IUPD - Staff -mem-
hers nf the State Tax Commis-
sion indicate that should the
voters defeat in November of
1960 the income tax measure
passed by the 1959 Legisla
ture then Oregon taxpayers
may face a stiffer tax jolt in
1961.
The tax problem was dis
cussed here Saturday at the
Manor Taxable,
County Assessor Ray Schu
macher said this morning that
Rogue Valley Manor, the
million dollar retirement
home on Barneburg hill, will
be subject to property taxes.
An attorney general's opin
ion in the law section ab
stracts published by the Ore
gon State Tax - commission
states that all "cooperative
living organizations" are not
exempt from taxation, and the
manor is such an organiza
tion, Schumacher said.
Another opinion in the
same publication states "real
property of a charitable in
stitution not actually occupied
for charitable purposes is tax
able." This also would include
the manor, Schumacher said.
The decision, if not appeal
ed, may have a considerable
ef-ect on operation of the
manor. The question of tax
liability had not been settled
previously, and it is under
stood here that it is still un
dergoing litigation, in the
case of Willamette View Man
or near Oregon City, an or
ganization similar to Rogue
Valley manor.

Surplus Predicted
Economist George Pederson
presented figures showing the
1959-60 fiscal year should end
with a surplus of $15,826,938.
If revenues remain the same
in 1960-61 fiscal year the cur
rent biennium would end with
a surplus of slightly more than
$4 million, according "to an
estimate of needs in 1960-61.
However, . Pederson said
that -."unfortunately some of
these "revenue items are non
recurring." He added it was
anybody's guess if the bien
nium would end with a defi
cit.
Looks Gloomy
The 1961-63 biennium looks
more gloomy, Commission ex
perts said. Paul O'Day, re
search director, said that if
economic conditions remain
good revenue for the next
biennium should be up about
$5 million from the current
biennium. But, he said, by the
end of the 1959-61 biennium
the state will have used up a
$31 million surplus. If there
is no surplus in July of 1961
the Legislature would face
about the same situation as in
1955 when a 45 per cent sur
tax was levied.
Dr. C. Ward Macy, head of
the University of Oregon de
partment of economics, said
there were two reasonable
ways to hike revenue - a sales
tax or more income tax.
Vehicles Stolen in
Area Over Week End
Thefts of four vehicles -three
in Medford and one in
Talent were reported over

ing to Medford police.
Police said one of the two

ing a window with a brick,
police reported. .
A car stolen Saturday night
from Robert Eldon Apparcel,
806 West Main st., was . re

cording to the report. Police
said the car was taken from
North Riverside ave. between

First Hawaiian
Congressmen
Assume Office
Chinese Republican
- Draws Senior Cards
Washington- (UPD -The three
members of Congress from
the new state of Hawaii were
sworn into office today. The
first official act for the two
new senators was to partici
pate in a lottery.
Sen. Hiram L. Fong (R),
first man of Chinese ancestry
ever to sit in the Senate, won
a coin toss and a drawing to
become the 50th state's "sen
ior" senator with almost a
six-year term.
His colleague, Sen. Oren E.
Long (D), drew himself a four
year term.
Lots Drawn for Term
The two new senators drew
lots for the length of their
terms after being sworn in as
the Senate's 99th and 100th
members. They could have
been six, four or two years.
Two historic mahogany bal
lot boxes held the answer to
how long a term awaited each
of the new senators.
Long, having earlier lost a
coin toss for seniority, drew
first from a box which held
one blank card and another
signifying a six-year term
ending Jan. 2, 1956. He drew
the blank.
Got Four-Year Card
After Fong picked the six
year card, Long drew from
the other box which held
cards for a "four-year" term
ending Jan. 2, 1963, and a
"two-year" term ending Jan.
2, 1961. He got the four-year
card.
Long and Fong were sworn
in by Vice President Richard
M. Nixon, 20 minutes after
Speaker Sam Rayburn swore
in Democrat Daniel K. Inouye
as Hawaii's first elected House
member. 4. -

Smoking Results
In Inferno in
New Jersey Jail
Material Said
Passed To Inmate
Toms" River, N. J.-(UPD -A
trusty gave the inmate of a
padded cell smoking materials
as "an act of kindess" that in
advertently led to a fire which
killed eight inmates of the
Ocean county jail. Prosecutor '
Howard Ewart said.
Ewart said it was deter
mined that one of two trus
ties gave either a lighted cig
arette or a cigarette and
matches to the prisoner in
whose cell the blaze erupted.
Ewart's office was one of
several agencies investigating
Sunday's fire at the two-story
jail. The blaze injured 15 per
sons. -Jail
Overcrowded
Gov. Robert B. Meyner and
Sheriff Harry Roe also began
inquiries into the blaze. At
the time of the fire, the jail,
with a recommended capacity
of 28, housed 65 prisoners.
The inmate of the padded
cell was awaiting transfer to
a state mental hospital.
Ewart said it could never
be determined whether the
fire was started intentionally
or began accidentally, because
nobody saw him (the prison
er)." The prosecutor said "tlfere
is nothing vicious" in giving
the man a smoke. It was "an
act of kindess," he said.
Identity Withheld
Ewart declined to identify
the trusty who passed the
smoking equipment to the
prisoner, General Peterson, ,
35, Philadelphia.
Peterson's cell, padded with
foam rubber, burst into flames
and spewed fire in all direc
tions. Seven prisoners in an ad
joining cell block perished in
the inferno without ever get
ting out of their quarters. Be

Truman Questions
Ike's Soviet Trip
"I seriously question the
wisdom of President Eisen
hower's going to Moscow."
"If this journey leads the
world to suspect that peace
can be advanced by the mere
exchange of visits between
heads of government, then we
all face certain disappoint
ment." With these words, former
President Truman, who sug
gested that Khrushchev visit
the U. S., examines, in an ex
clusive article, a problem of
interest to people throughout
the world.
The reasons he cites in op
position to President Eisen
hower's returning the Khru
shchev journey are sure to
provoke wide comment. They
will appear in Tuesday's issue
of the Mail Tribune.
