Thornton Lists
Law Loopholes
Salem -4UPB- Attorney Gen
eral Robert Y. Thornton has
listed what he termed loop
holes in Oregon's criminal
laws which need to be
plugged.
He said a major factor in
situations where known hood
lums and criminals "appear to
get off scot free is often not
lack of diligence by prosecu
tors and law enforcement
agencies, but the fact that our
laws are inadequate to deal
with clever crooks."
He said he has made eight
specific proposals for amend
ments and new laws to the
legislative interim committee
on criminal law.
Of these, one would amend
the criminal Conspiracy stat
ute to cover racketeering and
obstruction of justice.
The committee is headed by
State Sen. Carl Francis (R
Dayton), who last week an
nounced his candidacy for at
torney general.
Adult Course in
Art Principles
Taken by Teachers
Central Point - An adult
course in basic art principles
for teachers is now in progress
at Crater High school here.
Objective of the course is
to give elementary teachers
a better understanding of the
basic principles in art, and
is concerned mainly with how
to draw and paint rather than
actual problem exercises to
be given elementary students.
.With basic knowledge on
how to draw and paint, teach
ers will have a better under
standing of student problems
in the creative processes, and
they will be better prepared
to integrate the art program
into the elementary curricu
lum, according to Warren Hoi
brook, instructor.
Teachers are drawing and
studying basic geometric
forms and learning to show
volume and depth in relation
to value and line, Holbrook
noted. These forms will later
be applied to the drawing and
painting of still life, portraits
and figures.
As the course progresses,
teachers will advance to prob
lems in perspective and color.
The basic principles of color
and how color is applied to
every day living will be
studied, Holbrook said. The
problems will take a variety
of media, crayon, charcoal,
pencil, pastel, and tempera
paint, he said.
Teachers in district 6C will
receive two hours increment
credit for the course, which
will continue for 20 hours,
two hours a night for 10
weeks.
Teachers enrolled are Irene
Anhorn, Earl Barnhart, Alice
Beneka, Mildred Black, Marie
Brannock, Ruth Broomfield,
Grace Brownlee, Helen Cas
ter, Barbara Charles, Joy
Decker, Thelma Dobrot, Wilda
Franks, Mary Gardner, Ron
ald McKenna, Leon Myers,
Laura Patterson, Jane Russell,
Bertha Straus, Francis Tonn,
Richard Trailer and Ida Von-
Buskirk.

ed to the Public Library of
Medford and Jackson county
by the state library at Salem.
At their request, the city
council passed a resolution
asking the county court to in
crease taxation millage so
that branch library hours
could be increased from 11 to
30 hours per week.
The city council also report
ed that it has passed an ordin
ance following the state law
that no smoking by children
18 or under will be allowed.

It will begin at 10 a.m..
The "Mothers March" will
be held here Jan. 28 from 7
to 8 p.m. Every home in Jack
sonville will be contacted
Thursday afternoon and giv
en a questionnaire and en
velope for a contribution
prior to the evening March.
All "Marchers" are to meet
at the Community hall at 6:30
p.m. More volunteers are
badly needed and any help
would be greatly appreciated.
Arriving this week from
Mrs. E. E. Wall was the an
nual newsy letter, containing
a lively description of the lo
cality, the weather, scenic
sights and the "fun" of trailer
travel living they have been
enjoying this winter. By
"they," she means "We 12,
the Schracks, Barnes, Hughes,
Jacksons, Cooks and Walls,"
all residents from the Jack
sonville and Medford areas,
who , the last few winters
have trailer - traveled and
toured "good" weather areas
together. The letter this year

Mrs. Roberts, librarian, an
nounced she would be happy
to deliver books to anyone ill
or handicapped if they will
call her at her home (TW9-1258).
Bob Walters, Mail Tribune
regional editor, comments
that he got a chuckle out of
an item in last week's column,
which mentioned that Art
Iverson was left without a
"den" when his last two Cubs
were transferred to the Boy
Scouts. He suggests that what
Iverson needs is a "recruit
ing office." Which leads this
reporter to mention that any
boys interested in becoming
Cubs should contact any of
the Scout officials here, who
are always ready to welcome
new "recruits."
Guests this week at the
home of Mrs. Pearl Jordon
were Mr. and Mrs. Wayne
Sills and children, Debra and
Steven, Grover City, Calif.
The Sills also visited other
friends and relatives here..

De Gaulle Plans
Trip To Algeria
Paris-fflPB-President Charles
de Gaulle's office announced
today he would visit revolt
ridden Algeria next month,
but kept silent on whether he
had fired paratroop Gen.
Jacques Massu as military
civil leader in Algiers.
Reports, including a front
page bannc-line in the influ
ential daily Le Monde, insist
ed that Massu was ousted '.e
spite the risk of an uprising
by right-wing Algerian set
tlers who idolize him.
"Gen. Massu won't return
to Algeria," Le Monde said.
De Gaulle, furious at a'nti
de Gaulle remarks attributed
to Massu in an interview with
a German newspaper earlier
this week, barred him from a
major conference today on Algeria.
