DffWbutsi by Klnf raaturee 8rnillc4t in Colorado, Nebraska Struck Heavily by Tornadoes, Floods By United Preu International One of the worst springs in memory rode a flurry of tor nadoes and flash floods into the record books Tuesday. The season, which started with record-breaking March blizzards and April floods, bowed out almost as violently Monday. Tornadoes struck portions of Colorado and Nebraska and heavy rain hit the plains states and Florida. A twister caused ' $50,000 damage at Peetz, Colo., when it snapped off 60-foot light poles, smashed buildings and blew out windows. Sidney, Neb., was also struck by a twister which up rooted trees but did little oth er damage. No injuries were reported at either city. Many Flee Homes Thunderstorms drenched the plains with up to five in ches of rain, touching off dozens of flash floods in Ne braska. Many persons fled their homes and at least one died. A Stanton, Neb., farmer, Donald Hendricks, 25, was presumed drowned in a bridge washout. His wrecked car was found in a creek bed . and police said warning lights on the washout apparently blew away. At the Omaha, Neb., suburb of Ralston, an Army helicop ter picked up a young house wife whose home was cut off by a flooding creek and flew her to Offutt Air Force. base hospital, where she gave birth to a son a half hour after landing. Water Blocks Highway Three-quarter inch hail fell at Imperial, Neb., during a thunderstorm, and winds reaching 74 miles an hour bat tered Rapid City, S.D. Sixty mile - an - hour winds were measured in Wyoming. The rain looked like the be ginning of spring in the plains states, with dozens of high ways blocked by water and swollen creeks and rivers pouring into stores and houses. The Elkhorn river which had sent families scattering from their homes earlier this year in one of Nebraska's worst floods, was expected to run at bankful or above through tonight. . Heavy rain drenched Flor ida during the night. Tampa had 2.22 inches in a six-hour period. It was the second straight day of rain in the southeast. Jefferson County Grasslands Listed In Federal Order Portland - (UPD - About 100,. 000 acres of grasslands in Oregon's Jefferson county are included in the "National Grasslands" designation given to 3.8 million acres of govern ment land through an admin istrative order signed by Act ting Agriculture Secretary True D. Morse. J. Herbert Stone, regional U.S. forester, said the order affects 105,925 acres located just south of Madras. . Stone said the lands will be managed under the same regu lations and general policies as a national forest. Since 1953 the area has been managed by the Ochoco National For est, headquartered at Prine ville. That management will continue, only with more permanent status, Stone said. The lands were purchased by the government during the depression years of the 1930 s to take them out of cultivation and to aid develop ment of grassland agriculture in the area. They were man aged and developed by the Soil Conservation Service from 1938 through 1953. Stone said the central Ore gon grasslands are generally unsuited for cultivation but are well suited for recreation, grazing and wildlife. JHe said the change in status would assure a more firm management of the lands and would further the Forest Service's aim toward sustain ed yield of the forage re sources and greater multiple use of all resources. Stone said plans were being made for additional camp ground facilities. Main grazing areas are along Highway 26 where 30, 000 acres of former farmland were reseeded to grass several years ago. The new "grass lands" order allows for con tinuation of existing grazing lease procedures. About half the total area is rough and rocky but the For est Service plans for the rest to be reseeded eventually. CHERYL IN COURT A rare smile crosses the face of Cheryl Crane, 16 year old daughter of actress Lana Turner, as she clutches a poodle while awaiting an ap pearance before Juvenile Ref eree Harry Simon in Santa Monica, Calif., court. She was ordered returned to El Retiro School for Girls from which she has twice escaped. She fatally stabbed Johny Stom- panato, her mother's lover, in 1958.

Kittle, also known as Marie Oliver, formerly of Medford, yesterday in Jack son county circuit court sign ed papers turning over all properties in the August Lo- renzen estate. Mrs. Kittle had been charg ed with contempt of court for falling to turn over the prop erties as ordered by the court previously. Following a hear ing before Charles S. Wood- rich, Douglas county circuit court judge, last Tuesday, Mrs. Kittle hired Medford at torney Walter A. Nunley to represent her. Signing of the papers end' ed a complicated and drama, tic civil case involving Loren zen, a German immigrant car penter and his will. Lorenzen died in Sacramento, Calif., Dec. 23, 1955, after residing in Medford for several years, leaving an estate valued at over $50,000. Mrs. Kittle had claimed to be his daughter, and was his housekeeper and nurse in Medford and California. Mrs. Kittle also was the self-appointed former executrix of Lorenzen's estate. Following a four-year in vestigation and a series of le gal actions started against her in 1956 on behalf of Loreni Lorenson, August Lorenzen's brother, Mrs. Kittle's claims proved unfounded and she was directed by Judge Wood rich to sign over the remain der of the estate to the legal and rightful heirs. Oregon State Gets Grant for Research Aqainst Fir Beetle Corvallis-A new $7,000 re search grant has been re ceived by Oregon State col lege to expand the research battle against Douglas ilr beetles. Durng the period from 1951 to 1954, the beetles- about the size of a grain of wheat-cost Oregon an esti mated 5.000,000,000 board feet of timber. The devastat ing epidemic was set up by severe weather and heavy blow down of trees that serv ed as feeding and breeding sites. The new grant given OSC by the National Science Foun dation will be used for studies on "population dynamics" of the beetles-the how, when and why of changes and cycles in beetle numbers. Such in formation will be highly val uable in anticipating build-up of the beetles and in chart ing control and management measures. Studies will include work on rate of development and survival of beetles in wind blown and freshly-cut trees; influences of competition for food and space; and effects of predators and parasites upon the beetles' survival. Protect Leader Dr, Julius A. Rudinsky, for est entomologist, is project leader. I Working with him will be William H. Hendrickson, grad uate research assistant, and two undergraduate students In forest entomology Jim Rodgers, Coquille, and Karl Drlica, Corvallis. They have been awarded special Nation al Science Foundation under graduate research participa tion grants. OSC completed an new for est Insect laboratory in 1957, and now has a broad program of research underway. Basic research is being done on in sect biology, behavior and activities, and some work on testing of insecticides to de termine which are most effec-1 live and practical to use against various insects. Few people realize the tre mendous toll taken by forest insects, Rudinsky noted. Across the nation each year, forest insects kill enough timber to build 600,000 five room houses. Research, is being conduct ed in cooperation with the U.S. forest service and the Oregon Forest Research center.
