Institutions in State Subject of Television Series The first in a series of Sun day television programs on institutions operated by the Oregon state board of control will be presented over station KBES-TV at 4 o'clock this af ternoon. The documentary film to day is the first of a two-part report on the state peniten tiary, "In Our Care." Gov. Mark Hatfield and Warden C. T. Gladden will be inter viewed at the end of the re- port. The series has received na tional attention, stirring in terest in state government circles in the country. At least four states have written to the board of control about starting similar projects in their states. In the first report, the tel evision camera traces the ex periences of an inmate, acted by Prison Officer Sgt. E. A. Ben, from the time of admis sion through orientation and classification. The second part of the re port next Sunday follows the prisoner through work in prison industries, custody and parole and includes other as pects of the penitentiary in cluding the women's section, isolation areas and the gas chamber. ' The series is designed to provide basic information about the facilities and pro grams of the state's institu tions, "giving residents an op portunity to see where their tax money goes, state officials said. The Family Council Editor's Note: The Family Council consists of a Judge, psychiatrist, three clergymen, a newspaper editor, a women's editor and two writers. Each article is a summary of an actual i -ase history. The Council reports on problems that have been dealt wt to by responsible agencies and counselors. Marie S. - Louise should leave Joe. Louie S. I'm a coward. Marie S I am a working girl of 21, living with my brother and sister-in-law. My mother died five years ago and I was never able to get along with my father so he went to live with my marrjed sister and I came to live with my brother and his family. Since I have been living here, I have been terribly up set about the way my brother treats his wife. She is a fine persons, but he doesn't appre ciate her. He criticizes every thing she does and abuses her when he's drunk-which is an average of twice a week. I have urged my sister-in- law to leave Joe. I am willing to remain with her and con tribute to the support of her and the two children. Louise is too much of a coward to do it, but she should do it if only for the children's sake. This is no home for children. Louise S.-What Marie says is true. I am a coward. I am afraid to leave Joe and go off by myself with the chil dren. Bad as he is, he cares for the children and is good to them when he isn't drunk Also, I can't help . thinking what will happen when Marie gets married. She will go off and it won't be easy to col lect support from Joe if he isnt living with us. Marie says not to worry, she'll al ways take care of me, but I don't want to be a burden on anyone.

BEAR CBEEK OHCHAEDS 2 Miles South on Highway 99 It is easy for an educated girl like Marie to talk of leaving a man. She can always get a good .job as a secre tary. But if things got bad I'd have to do domestic work. Who would take care of the children? It's no good this way, but maybe I'd make things worse by leaving. The Council: Not all home wreckers are sex thieves. Some confine their activities to putting little drops of poi son into a relationship at regular intervals. And some times they do this with the best of intentions. Marie fits into this cate gory. She is completely un aware of the fact that she has no business intruding into this marriage relationship. She has no business building up Louise's hostility toward her husband or offering her an emotional and financial support she can't possibly ful fill. In short, she doesn't be long in this home since she can't keep herself out of the intimate family life. Louise is wise to hold her own against her domineering sister-in-law. She should go one step further. Instead of complaining into Marie's sym pathetic ear, she should try to do something about im proving her marriage. She should certainly not leave her husband on an outsider's advice. Recent studies show that children brought up in un happy homes are often better off than those brought up in more peaceful, but broken homes. We are not in favor of making rigid rules about any aspect of family life, but we think unhappy marriage partners should think very long and seriously about their children's future, and then think again, before separat ing. They may not be happier apart and- their children are almost guaranteed to be much less happy. If Joe "cares for the chil dren" and is good to them more often than not, there is an excellent basis for the re pair of this marriage. But first, we would recommend that Marie get living quar ters with some other family and that she try to find ab sorbing activities and social life. If she led a happier per sonal life she would become less involved in things that don't concern her. (Copyright 1960, General Features Corp.)

Anthony Ketko, 68, above, with his wife, Agatha, 62, were hospitalized in need of medical care. A bailiff found them ill when he called to serve eviction papers. A social worker said a guardian will be appointed for the couple and they probably will be placed in a convalescent home.
