Four Vietnamese Students Convicted Saigon, South Viet Nam -IUP1I - Four Vietnamese stu dents convicted of attempting to assassinate U.S. Ambassa dor to South Viet Nam Fred erick Nolting Jr. were sen tenced to death Wednesday by a special military tribunal, it was reported today. The government press agency reported that the stu dents also were convicted of planning and carrying out five other hand grenade at tacks in the Saigon area last summer, including two at tempts against the lives of U.S. Military Assistance and Advisory Group personnel. The attempted assassination of Nolting took place last August when a hand grenade was tossed at the ambassa dor's car. The grenade bounced off the car's door but did not explode.

Ralph Clark, Ore gon State University exten sion horticulture specialist. In addition to furnishing the gardener with healthy stock, commercial dealers are also available for advice and assistance, Clark pointed out. Local stores have plants by the dozen in handy containers and, for many, this may be the best source of planting stock. Hardy plants can be set out anytime now that the soil is ready, but tender crops like tomatoes should wait until the danger of frost is past and the soil is warm enough not to in terrupt their growth, he cau tioned. Clark advises gardeners who raise their own plants to use clean, light soil. To help prevent damping off, seeds should be lightly dusted with arasan before coving them lightly with screen spaghnum moss, perlite or vermiculite. By using moderately moist soil, dampening the planted container lightly and then covering with damp newspa per or glass until the plants come up, the gardener can keep the moisture up in the planter, he continued. Young plants should be spotted out in a two by two inch space in flats of soil three inches deep as soon as the first leaf is large enough to make this possible. A pen cil makes a good dibble to use In spotting out young plants, Clark noted. Plants should be sprinkled lightly after transplanting and shaded for a day or two with a single thickness of newspa per over the flats. The soil should be kept moderately moist. A soil mix of one-third loam, one-third sand Bnd one third peat or leaf mold could be advantageous for young plants. This should be screen ed through a quarter-inch hardware cloth to remove coarse material, he stressed. CARL I. PEARSON Funeral services for Carl I. Pearson, 78, of 118 Clark st., Medford, who died Wed nesday, will be held at 10 a.m. Saturday in tile Chapel in the Trees in Siskiyou Me morial park. The Rev. George G.

Fountain, supervisor wesern railroads are permit ted to go through with their proposed merger, it would seriously limit rail competi tion in Washington, the Inter stale Commerce Commission was told Wednesday. Gilbert J. Parr, of Washing ton, D. C, urged the ICC to turn down the merger request of the Northern Pacific, Great Northern, Burlington and Spo kane, Portland & Seattle rail roads. The merger. Parr said, "will result in a severe curtailment, and in some instances a com plete elimination of competi tion between rail carriers." Diversion of traffic In addition, Parr contended that the plan would "result in the diversion of considerable traffic from the lines of the Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul and Pacific Railroad."

Fountain presented three documents which he said in dicated that the Northern Pa cific, Great Northern and Bur lington lines compared favor ably with most of the nation's other major rail lines in terms of a series of Indicators of financial standing. Fountain implied that his figures showed that the lines did not need to merge. Merged Mileage Noted Parr said if tile plan was ap proved tile merged line would operate 3,606 miles in Wash ington "and the Milwaukee, the only other competitor which has a direct single-line transcontinental route, would operate only 1,063 miles. "Under present conditions, there is competition between the three applicant lines, as well as the Milwaukee. Under the proposed merger, there would be only one competitor . . , which would be pitted against combined operations of three carriers with mileages about three and one-half times those of the Milwaukee," he said. A cold record for the U.S was set Jan. 20, 1054, at Rogers Pass, Mont, north of Ycllowston Park, when the mercury fell to 70 degrees be low zero.
