Farmer Buried By Vell Cave-in Nampa, Idaho (UPD Canyon County sheriffs officers said that Herbert A'. Tlegs, a pro minent area farmer, died when a well he was working in caved in burying him in sand. Efforts were under way to recover his body but the work was slow and tedious. Rescue workers had to go through a 22 inch pipe to get to the body which was still under several feet of sand. Oxygen also was lacking and there was fear of someone else being trapped. Floodlights were used in the operation after damkess fell. One deputy said, "I'm no expert, but I think it will take a week to get him out." Tiegs, about 99, had been cementing the walla of the well working from a rope plank. A hired hand had been helping him but left for a short time. He discovered the accident when he returned to the 155 foot structure. : . , Page 2A Medford tribune MEDFORD, OREGON, THURSDAY, MAY 18, 1961 Security-Cleared Engineer Otecf of Nation-Wide Search Elmsford, N.

Last-Minute Korean flea for U.S. To Intervene in Army Revolt Rejected Edltor'i note: The followlns dif patch report! that tho United states rejected a dramatic last moment plea that U.S. troopi In tervene against the Korean rebelf who this week . overthrew the sovernment of Premier John M. Chans. Highly qualified lomcee tell for the flnt time of the maneuvering which preceded the coup. By PHIL NEWSOM UPI Foreign News Analyst Highly qualified sources said today that the man who has been named chairman of the Korean Revolutionary Committee actually made a last minute plea to U.S. Gen. Carter B. Magruder for U.S. troop intervention to stop the revolt. . .. Magruder, commander of U.S. and United Nations forces in Korea, turned him down, apparently on the basis of standing orders from Wash ington for such a situation. The man who made the secret pre-dawn plea was Lt. Gen. Chang Do Yung, Korean army chief of staff. The sources say Chang is a figurehead and that intricate behind-the-scenes political ne gotiations which have follow ed the coup, show that the revolutionary committee may have had less strength than first appeared. This is how they tell the story: . The real driving force be- IMPORTANT IMPORTANT PLACE ON PART IN OREGON'S TABLES OREGON'S GROWTH 'V v' ... n xr- m' '- .7 J An important plac on Oregon's tables belongs to BUMBLE BEE Tuna and Salmon.

These years have seen ever-increasing consumer ' preference for the BUMBLE BEE Brand, as more and more people have come to recognize this trade-mark as assurance of the finest qual ity seafoods.

Pak Chong-hui, deputy com manding general of the Kor ean Second Army and now vice chairman of the military Junta. . ",, It was Pak who gave the signal for the assault.' Chang almost instantly made his plea to Magruder. . Magruder refused so quick ly he could not have stopped to consult 'Vashington. Pre sumably, he - acted . under standing orders for such a sit uation. . There is evidence that Chang played a middle and changing role. At one point before the coup he issued or ders that no troops under his STOCK MARKET The Wall Street stock market report will be found on page 9A. command would take part. During the weeks before the coup he sought a moderate course. He did not at first back the rebel group. Nor did he call in outlying Korean troops either to support or oppose it. There is strong evidence that Premier John M. Chang had information on the coup weeks in advance, knew many of the leaders and that Pak was the ring-leader.- It appeared the premier did not know the extent to which Chang, one of his most trusted officers, would be Involved. Only about 4,000 troops out of a total army of more than 500,000 took part. ' 1 r .,1 . One contributing reason for this undoubtedly was Magru der's statement calling on the whole army immediately to restore control to the Over thrown government. The American army always has had strong influence on the Korean military.
