Kenn e d y for saying she's not climbing onto the bandwag on of the itooi siuitii n a r a - run- Six Accidents Are Reported to City Police Thursday Medford police attributed an unusually large number o traffic accidents Thursday to rain-slick streets. Six acci dents were reported, one of them resulting in minor in juries to a 65-year-old Grants Pass woman. The woman, Grace Bcrnlce Wolford, was the driver of a car which collided with a ve hicle operated by William Goldsmith Preston, 25, of 1417 South Ivy st., about 11:14 a.m. at the intersection of Eighth and Orange sts. Both drivers claimed to police that the green light was in their favor. The injur ed woman was taken to Rogue Valley hospital by Medford Ambulance service. Police said both cars sustained heavy damage. Thr.e-Car Miihap A three-car traffic accident occurred about 7:50 a.m. on North Central ave. between Fourth and Fifth sts., accord ing to city police. Vehicles op erated by Genevieve Laura Ward, 32, of 1125'2 Niantic st.. and Nicholas Francis Gier, 41, of 2900 North Pacific high way, had stopped for traffic on North Central ave. when they were hit from the rear by a car operated by UeraJd Emerson Gilmore, 48, Rogue River. Police said the Gilmore ve hicle apparently could not stop in time to avoid the other two vehicles because of the wet pavement. He was not cited, police said. Another three-car acci dent occurred at the inter section of North Riverside ave. and Edwards st. about 11:28 a.m. Police said a ve hicle operated by Ronald Clark, 44, of 601 Park st., was unable to stop on slick pavement, and hit the rear of a car operated by Marie Hol ley, 32, of route 4, box 458A, which had stopped for a red light.

Seniors Awarded Scholarships to Attend Colleges Two Medford High school seniors have been awarded college scholarships from local and Eastern sources, it was learned recently. Robert Hamilton, son of Mr. and Mrs. Moore Hamil ton, 43 Rose ave., and Paul Moore, son of the Rev. and Mrs. Sherman Moore, Seattle, Wash., are recipients of the awards. Hamilton has received a $7,000 scholarship to Dart mouth college in Hanover, N.H. The scholarship provides $1,750 for the first year, and is renewable annually for four years contingent upon his maintenance of high scholastic standings. Wins Scholarship Moore has won the eighth KMED scholarship given by the radio station. Station of ficials said the award, worth $180 and to be applied at any Oregon college, is awarded on the basis of need, scholastic ability, activities participa tion, character and citizen ship, and experience in speech or similar activity. Young Hamilton is student body president at MHS, has been a member of the band for three years, and has par ticipated in track for the same period. Recently he was announced as a member of the academic honors group consisting of the top 5 per cent of the graduating class scholastically. Moore is currently presi dent of the high school choir, and ' is a member of the Strollers, a high school male quartet that has made numer ous public appearances. He was also vice president of his class as a sophomore, and is a member of the Thespians, a drama club. A. Salem - (UPII - Willamette University will graduate 180 students in ceremonies start ing with Sunday baccalaure ate services. Commencement will be June 5. ning presiuenliai candidate who won the Oregon pri mary. Mrs. Neuberger told the Washington Post, in a tele phone interview, that she still thinks the party may turn to Adlai Stevenson be cause of the uncertainty of the international situation. Several things about this have caused the Kennedy forces to blink in dismay. They note that on her return to Oregon early in May, Mrs. Neuberger stopped in Chi cago for lunch with the for mer Illinois governor. Later she told reporters that Steven son felt if Kennedy won the Oregon primary, he had "a right to the nomination." Kennedy last week won the Oregon contest in a heavy vote over all other contend ers. What is more, Kennedy's people point out that Steven son got much less write-in support this year than he did as a write-in winner of the primary in 1956. "Stevenson's small write-in vote indicates there is no great groundswell of senti ment for him in Oregon," ob served one of the Massa chusetts senator's aides. Mrs. Neuberger told the Post she thought the world situation may make the Demo cratic convention decide on a man of Stevenson's "experi ence." Mrs. Neuberger, the Demo cratic nominee for the U.S. Senate in the fall election, keyed her own election pros pects to the world situation as well. "I think everything depends on the world situation, ' she remarked. "If the people feel they have a better chance of peace with the Democrats then we're going to sweep in across the country. But if they have confidence in Vice President Nixon, he s going to carry a lot of Republicans to victory with him. Top Choice Important Candidates running for slate offices are going to ride wilh the top of the ticket," she added, indicating how im portant she believes the choice of the Democratic presidential candidate will be to other party candidates such as her self. Mrs. Neuberger's unwilling ness to get on the Kennedy bandwagon leaves Oregon's two top Democrats standing aloof from the winner of the state's presidential primary. Sen. Wayne Morse, since his defeat by Kennedy, has had little to say, but he. too is pro-Stevenson. Whether either of these Stevenson supporters will be at the convention at Los Angeles is doubtful. Mrs. Neuberger told the Post she has. no plan to attend the na tional convention. Some Democrats here think she would be better advised to attend, to mix with party politicians who might prove helpful in her Senatorial cam paign. " Depends on Alternate Role Morse's attendance at the convention may depend on whether he becomes an al ternate, which is what he had wanted before he went down to defeat in three primaries, Alternates are chosen by the elected delegates. When he expressed the wish to be an alternate, Morse confidently figured on having a block of delegates boosting his candi dacy. Now it is clear that won't be the case. Some of Morse's Democrat ic colleagues hope he will go as an alternate and not iso late himself from the proceed ings because of the disappoint ment of his defeat. They say he can go for the asking. Four Timos To Check Social Security Noted By Office Manager I A one-eyed person actually has less visual fatigue than a normal person with two eyes. There re .bout 250 rettfj. ious denominations within tliaj United States. ' There are four times when it is especially important to consult the social security of fice, according to Edward B. Jacobson, district manager of the Medford social security office. One is when the worker ap proaches retirement age (age 62 for women or age 65 for men), "It's good business at this time," Jacobson said, "to find out about your social security rights, and if you are within three months of your actual retirement date you may file application for ben efits." A second time Is when a person reaches age 72 and has not previously filed for ben efits because he has continued to work past age 65. Benefits may be payable at 72, even if he is still working. Number three is a seriously disabled worker who has not reached retirement age. He should inquire regarding pos sible protection under the dis- 3 Congratulations to BART GARRED 1920 Grandview Ave., Medford Farmers Insurance Group honors local counselor in recognition of outstand ing achievements in the insurance field.

Compact Cars Gain In Popularity Here New York - The production of compact cars, now almost hitting a yearly rate of two million, may rise another half million, says Fortune. Ram bler and Valiant are expand ing their production; Falcon and Corvair will soon intro duce station wagons for the first time; and Ford has begun introduction of its new Comet, probably to be followed by a General Motors "medium' small car in the fall. One important factor in the success of the compacts, ac cording to Fortune, is that the size and price classes of the old "low price'' group Chev rolct, Ford, Plymouth have been running into the onetime "medium range." This has left market room for smaller cars. room which the compacts are filling. "Meanwhile, medium and top-priced cars together have been maintaining sales quite well since 1057," Fortune said.

Scien tists believe the prints to be the earliest trace of man in that part of the world. ability freeze; or if he is psit age 50 he may find that he can qualify for monthly pay ments. Fourth, after the death of a worker, some member of his family should inquire promptly at the social secur ity office to learn if survivor insurance benefits are pay able, Jacobson noted.
