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.

Mrs. Kittle Signs
Papers Turning
Over Big Estate
Marie K. 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.
