(UP! Radiotelephoto) Medford Tribune Page 2 Stocks Move Up on Irregular Advance New York (UPD Stocks moved up today from their openlng levels to advance irregularly. Small gains predominated in the list but the advance was ragged and lacked con viction. Steel issues firmed for the most part. Lukens, still aided by its move to operate during any recurrence of the steel strike, jumped nearly Vz. Youngstown, Republic and Bethlehem tacked on .frac tions, while U.S. Steel which rose at the opening, eased in subsequent trades. Gains of a point or more appeared in some of the re cently volatile electronics. General Time, Texas Instru ments and Litton moved up more than a point each. IBM lost around 1.

Bookie Murdered; Police Say Scene Was 'Rearranged' Sherman Oaks, Calif. -(UPD-A widely known bookie was shot to death Wednesday night before ex-convict Mick ey Cohen and 25 other guests at a swanky restaurant and police said the murder scene was "rearranged" before they were called. The victim, convicted ex tortionist Jack Whalen, alias Jack O'Hara, 39, was shot once under the right eye, po lice said, after he walked into Rondelli's restaurant and hit a man in the face. Slayer Flees The slayer fired two shots at Whalen from his seat in a dining room booth, then fled. The second shot went into the ceiling. "To paraphrase Winston Churchill, never did so many people see so little," Police Chief William. H. Parker said of the slaying in this San Fernando Valley district of Los Angeles. Parker said there was an "obvious delay before police were notified. Perhaps some of the press were notified first. We also believe that the scene of the murder was con siderably rearranged before we arrived. Cohen Six Feet Away Former mobster Cohen told police he was sitting at a table only six feet away from the shooting but did not rec ognize the gunman. He said he never had met Whalen. "I just ducked when the shooting started," Cohen said when questioned at police headquarters. "I asked some one behind me if I was bleed ing, then just stood there. I've been through too many of these things to go under a table." The Best of the Holidays from AMERICAN- TOVRISTER hie S .

Main - Medford Sacred Duty To Assist Working Class Described Vienna, Austria - (UPD - So viet Premier Nikita S. Khru shchev defended Wednesday his decision to order Russian troops and tanks to crush the 1956 Freedom-Fighters revolt in Hungary. . In a speech to workers at the Ganz-Mavag truck plant in Budapest where he attend ed the Hungarian Socialist Workers (Communist) Party Congress, Khrushchev blamed the 10-day rebellion on "im perialists." The "imperialists," he said, "wanted to split the Commu nist bloc countries. Sacred Duly "We regarded it as our sacred duty to meet the re quest of the Hungarian Revo lutionary Workers and Peas ants Government, to move our troops against the counter revolution and to help the working class," Khrushchev said. "Had we not helped you we would have been called fools and' history would not have forgiven us that foolishness." Boasts of Supremacy In an address Tuesday to the Communist , Party Con gress, Khrushchev had blam ed the "fever" generated by his denunciation of Josef Stalin and the mistakes of the Hungarian Red leaders for sparking the revolt. Khrushchev also boasted of the Soviet rocket supremacy. He said the Communist coun tries "are not afraid of the forces of imperialism." "Our forces are stronger than the forces ,of imperial ism. Our armaments are bet ter .. . our rockets are on the moon while theirs are in the water," he said. Oregon Having Tragic Year in Hunting Fatalities Great Many More Parks Necessary By Century's End ,i Williamsburg, Va. PJPB Winthrop Rockefeller, board chairman of Colonial .Wil liamsburg, predicted today that before the end of the cen tury, the United States will need 40 times the land now set aside for national parks and scenic areas. Rockefeller told the Nation al Park Service's bi-annual conference here that the na tion must make a concerted effort to provide space for its citizens to enjoy their increas ing leisure time. More Leisure Time About 400 Park Service of ficials, including superinten dents, regional directors and rangers, are attending the meetings here. Williamsburg is an historic colonial center restored by a group establish ed by Rockefeller's father, John I). Jr. Rockefeller said that by the year 2000, twice as many peo ple will be enjoying 50 per cent more leisure time on double their present incomes and travel budget. "America will need per haps four times the number of city parks and play grounds, 16 times as many re gional parks and lakes close enough to urban areas for a day's outing, and roughly 40 times the amount of land in national parks and scenic areas," he said. Rockefeller is a brother of New York Gov. Nelson Rock efeller. Seaton's 'Directive' In a message to the conven tion. Interior Secretary Fred A. Seaton issued a six-point "directive" guide future pro gress of the Park Service's "Mission 66" program. The program is a long-range con servation and development plan aimed for completion in 1966.
