MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON Election Results in Cambodia Another Defeat for Communist Party THURSDAY. JUNE 21. 1962 Hong Kong - 0IP1) - The elec. tion results this month in tiny Cambodia, neutral member of the chain of states that used to be French Indo-China, were another defeat for the Com munists. Cambodia follows a policy of cultivating friendly ties with Communist China well - '"astern nations. But Communist strength inside Cambodia is so insignificant that the party did not even run candidates. The election was won hand ily by Prince Norodom Sihan ouk's Sangkum party, whose platform is based mainly on the fact that Cambodia is an island of peace in a sea of conflict. Ends Picked Up Communist Viet Minn troops were in Viet Nam, Cambodia and Laos. Few thought that an independent non-Communist nation could survive any where in the Indochina peninsula. Today, while Sihanouk has brought stability to his nation of 5 million, Diem is fighting for his life and the continued independence of his 14 mil lion countrymen. Sihanouk himself scoffs at the possibility of a Communist-directed and supplied "National Liberation Move ment" against his rule. Cambodia's long frontiers arc open to the Communists, he points out, but they would find few sympathizers to feed and harbor them in the villages. The peasants want peace. Bv stumping along oxcart tracks and paddling to the most remote corners of the tropical kingdom, Sihanouk has convinced them that he is their best guarantor of peace. Today, an American can travel without fear in any part of Cambodia. Besides taking his case to the people, 39-year-old Sihan ouk has traveled extensively abroad both to Communist and non-Communist nations. His opposition virtually si lenced, Sihanouk has been able to make a solid start toward raising Cambodia by its bootstraps from the stte of under development In which it found itself at inde pendence. Fully 16 per cent of Cam bodia's national budget went for education in 1981, com pared to only 4.5 per cent in embattled South Vietnam. With less foreign aid, Sihan ouk has been able to rcgester progress in economic and so cial development. Only a rel atively small portion of the budget goes to maintain Cam bodia's tiny armed forces. Little To Say While the Chinese and North Vietnamese Commu nisls talk about the inevitable forthcoming defeat of pro Western rulers in Laos, South Viet Nam and Thailand, they have little to say about pros pective victory in Cambodia. In a pre-election statement, the Cambodian Communist party explained it was not contesting the general elec tion for fear of seeing "im perialist capitalist Americans disunite the Cambodian peo ple by making a bogeyman of Communism." ITS t r Z. ? M r . ft- v.' mam HONESTLY NAMED Tuna takes a fruit halo. This Sun burst salad comes by its name honestly. It combines tuna frnm minlll waters and fruit from sunny climes. We've decorated it with lengthwise slices of avocado and grapefruit but suggest other adornments in today s food columns.

PITY POOR DOGS Lancaster, Pa. -ilPli- Lawns. hedges and trees on private property are out of bounds to dogs here even if they are on leashes because of complaints of canine bad manners. The city council, acting at the re quest of Warden Wlnfield Noden, changed an ordinance banning even leashed dogs from the greenery unless they have a property owner's consent. Salad Plates Get Boauty Treatment Time was when It was the solid aim of salad makers to line up a row of identical salad beauties. Look alikes were luncheon - perfect. To day's smart young salad mak er knows that there's no law that says this is necessary. She uses her imagination and often n assortment of fruits, ber ries and even melon cut-ups or cut-outs for enhancing the finished product - with no look-alikes. Furthermore, she is likely to assemble fish and fruit in stead of the traditional tuna and tomatoes. Tuna simply turned out of the can and com bined with exciting seasonings makes a mound for garnishing In ways like those given below. We talk about tuna because it is a staple on every pantry shelf, ready for quickly com bining with practically any available fruit. Tuna is very economical too as local stores special it at "two for" and "three for". We've even seen some "five fors". Tuna Salad and Fruit Combos Our pictured Sunburst salad, as cheerful and bright as a summer's day, has base of expertly seasoned tuna sur rounded by sunny fruits. A crown of green and golden avocado gives it distinction in both appearance and flavor. Add a ring of orange sections around the base and vou have a centerpiece worthy of an elegant summer table. Cut fresh pineapple rings in half and surround the salad with them as a substitute for the orange sections. Or stud the salad with cantaloupe bulls or diced cantaloupe Honeydcw melon and grapes also stand ready to add their grace notes to '.lie ensemble. When making in dividual salads, try some of each. For two generous servings, and we do mean generous, combine the following ingre dients: (Why not treble this and make un a really big batch for future gourmandiz ing?l 1 6' 4 or 7 ounce can tuna In veeetable oil H cup diced celery 1 cun diced fruit 1 tablespoon capers, optional 1 teaspoon minced onion '4 teaspoon ginger 3 tablespoons mayonnaise Combine tuna and remain ing ingredients in mixing bowl. Fruit may be diced can taloupe, honeydcw, halved er;ioes or halved orange sec tions. Toss lightly to blend. Turn onto shredded lettuce. Tuna portion may be easily "molded" by parking mixture into a measuring cup or other small "bowl". Garnish with fruit as suggested above. Fruit Salad Plates And Wayi lo Treat Them Large strawberries being sweetest are choicest for unhid making. Serve them with hulls fur fincer eating part of the time. If hulled, leave whole unless they are very large In which event thev should he halved. All other herries being free of hull, should he chosen for firmness, full color These can be arranged in heaps or as garnish. Royal Anne and Ring cher ries appear often on salad plates with stem attached for finger eating. Pretty, too Summer avocados which are so plentiful can be used In any salad combination or as a cados must be marinated in French dressing or lemon juice immediately after peel ing and other preparation. Grapefruit sections, pink or golden andor orange seg ments or slices may well be a part of any fruit salad ar rangement. Fresh pineapple slices, sticks or chunks lend them selves to attractive arrange ments. Cantaloupes and honey balls may be halved, cut in thirds, quartered or sliced in half moons and then peeled as a fine underpinning for many salad plates. Early peaches, plums and apricots are now in markets and later there will be nectar ines and pears joinin the gal axy of salad Ingredients. Black Mission figs and dales can be used whole or coarsely chopped. Raisins, dark or golden, seeded or seedless, may be sprinkled over almost any sal ad arrangement. Walnut halves, whole or slivered blanched almonds, chopped peanuts or cashews are often used effectively in salad arrangements. Cola Coolers The several colas and other carbonated beverages on the market invite their use in new and fancy ways over ice cubes. Place a teaspoon of lemon on juice in a tall glass. Add several ice cubes. Fill glass with carbonated beverage. Add a fresh lime or orange slice if you like. Place a teaspoon lemon juice and a few drops of mint extract In tall glass. Add ice cubes and fill glass with cola or other carbonated bev erage. Add peppermint stick stirrer if you like. Place two tablespoons bot tled cranberry juice cocktail in tall glass. Add several ice cubes; fill glass with cola and garnish with orange slice. Buttermilk Blend ror a Mural-quenching, re vitalizing summer drink, try blending of chilled buttermilk with grape, pineapple or to mato juice. Buttermilk, fresh from contnincr, is thought by many to be superlative with simply a dash of seasoned salt added.

No New Word On Pacific Test Honolulu - (UPD - There was no official word from U.S. Joint Task Force 8 today on further plans to explode a rocket-borne nuclear device over Johnston Island, where two previous attempts ended in failure. However, informed sources said it would be at least 10 days before another shot of any type could be scheduled after the failure Tuesday night. The Thor rocket and its nuclear warhead were de stroyed two minutes after launching in a near repetition of the first attempt June 3. There have been 21 an nounced explosions during the Pacific test series which be gan three months ago, but all of them were conducted at Christmas Island. The Johnston Island phase of the operation called for three or four rocket-borne nu clear tests. The first attempt was to have been a relatively small device exploded at an altitude of 30 miles, while Tuesday night s futile effort - a mega ton device equal to a million or more tons of TNT - was scheduled for an altitude of from 200 to 500 miles. The third attempt In the original plans called for a blast about 200 miles above the earth, and the possible fourth was contingent upon the outcome of the first three. one teaspoon vanilla and mix well.

Wil 1 1 a m Proxmire, Wisconsin Democrat, said in New Or leans that he thinks a tax re form bill will have a 50-50 chance in this session of Con gress, but he said the Presi dent's announcement of a pos sible tax cut next year is hurt ing the measures chances. Proxmire was in New Orleans to address a convention. (UPI) Bulletin Offers Poison Oak Tips Corvallis - Poison oak that plagues summer picnickers in western Oregon is also be coming an increasing problem to suburban families pushing out into Oregon's wooded areas.

Back Stairs: Hoofs Mar Green By MERRIMAN SMITH UPI White House Reporter Washington fUPD Backstairs at the White House: Want to hear something chilling? There are pony hoof marks all over the White House golf green. When former President Dwlght D. Eisenhower hears about this, there could be new political warfare. Caroline Kennedy's two ponies normally are not al lowed to roam, but they did on at least one occasion and the once mirror-smooth put ting green now resembles the beginner's tee at a public driving range. Also there are some spike marks on the green made by high-fashion heels of ladies who somehow did not have Demonstration of Auto-Gyro Slated The recently postponed demonstration of the Urn-baugh-18 auto-gyro has been rescheduled Saturday and Sunday, June 23 and 24 at the Ashland airport, according to Everett L. Robertson, Rogue valley dealer. Demonstration rides will be conducted from about 10 a.m. until about 6 p.m. both days. Robertson said that the Ash land airport had been chosen because the demonstration would interrupt traffic pat terns at the Medford Munici pal airport. The Umbaugh-18 is now in mass production, and the first aircraft are expected off the assembly line the last week in June. the same reverence for golf that existed in the White House a couple of years back. Rene Verdon, Mrs. Ken nedy's French chef, is getting television offers and turning them down. It Verdon wants to continue cooking at the White House, he'll continue his anonymity. Once he departs the Ken nedy kitchens, however, he should be able to name his own price at virtually any hotel or restaurant in the country. And imagine how a Verdon cookbook would sell. Fine Idea A not entirely reverent soul comes up with a fine idea for healing the breach between business and President Ken nedy. Sell the sponsorship of his televised news conference to U. S. Steel. Laugh Provoker One of the biggest laugh provokers around the White House in many moons: "Who's In Charge Here?" A collec tion of news photographs of the mighty Kennedy, Mac mlllan, Khrushchev, Nehru, Truman, Eisenhower, et al with imaginary dialogue by Gerald Gardner From this slim little paper back comes one idea which the Democrats find utterly devastating that Richard M. Nixon still wants to debate his political opponents, but only on radio. JFK Has Fun Speaking of fun, the Presi dent had a lot of it the other day when he toured exhibits at the National Archives. He entered quietly and un announced. Several times he joined tourist groups peering into cases of historic docu ments, and, double-takes by the sight-seers would have driven Allen (Camera) Funt crazy with envy. One woman had to look at the President thpe times, from about a foot away, be fore she could comprehend. When she got the Ilea, her howl of glee reachd siren intensity.
