The statement was submit ted through Rep. Edith Green in Washington, D.C. it was addressed to Subcommittee Chairman John Blatnik. Duncan noted in his state ment that the "project has a K h I hpnpfit In post ratio. This is especially noteworthy for a project oi sucn complete multiple purpose concept." Sports Fishery He pointed out Wat the Rogue river is famous as a sports fishery and as a spawn ing and rearing stream for ocean going commercial fish eries. "What you may not know is that as a habitat for anadromous fish, the Rogue river is today dangerously siplr and mir fishprv has been seriously depleted and In danger of even greater loss Duncan said. fjr You'll Save at jf Pigg'y Wiggly on ' if Special Morning ; I CANNEbli I MILK J MP s ySYou'll SavTaf.

Soblen took brief testimony from the convicted Soviet spy's widow today and then adjourned for three weeks at police request. The hearing was over in a matter of minutes after De tective Superintendent James McKay asked for the adjourn ment until Oct. 4. McKay is leading the police investigation into how Soblen obtained the overdose of bar biturates that led to his death Exact Cause Unknown -Dr. Robert Tcare, the pa thologist who conducted the post mortem examination on Soblen's body, said he was not prepared at this stage to give the exact cause of death be cause he still had "a consider able amount of work to do." The only other witness to day was Soblen's widow who was rushed to Britain last Fri day, the day after her hus band was hospitalized uncon scious. Coroner H. G. Broadbridge asked her: "You have iden tified the body in this case as that of your husband?" "Yes," replied the gray haired woman in a low voice. Ponibly Smuggled "Police have been trying to determine if anyone smuggled the barbiturates to the 61-year-old psychiatrist at Brix ton Prison. He died, still un conscious, on Tuesday. He is believed to have taken the overdose at the prison shortly before he was bun dled into an ambulance for the ride to London Airport where a plane was waiting to take him back to life im prisonment in the United States. Blind Can Employ Sonar To Navigate The importance of the irri gation aspect of the project also was reviewed by Duncan, who noted that "We need to put this now mainly idle land to work to provide employ ment for our increasing popu lation, to increase its tax value to help pay for our local governmental needs, to bal ance our economy from too heavy a reliance on our lim ber industry." Flood control aspects, and the provision for electric pow er were noted, as was recrea tional and storage for muni cipal water supplies. Favorable Consideration Duncan, in urging early and favorable consideration of the project, said: "1 call to your attention the fact that this Rogue River Basin Project has received a favorable report from every government agency involved, both national and stale. Most particularly, I ask you to note that this plan of development has no enemies. For once, and I believe for the first time, we have provided a river develop ment plan' which not only de velops power, provides irri gation and gives protection from floods, but which has as one of its major benefits, the enhancement and restoration of the fishery. This project may well become a prototype tor future multiple purpose development and point the way to future solutions of our resource interest conflicts and river development plans." Representatives of the Rogue Basin Flood Control and Water Resources associa tion left Medford Saturday night to attend hearings on the project in Washington, D.C. this week. They were Ben Hil ton, Grants Pass, president of the association, and Ben Day, Gold Hill, a director for (he group. By JOSEPH L. MYLER Washington-llTO-Some blind human beings can navigate by sonar the way bats and por poises do. A few of them may even do it as well as the porpoise or bat. This is suggested by Prof. Wintluop N. Kellogg of Flor ida State university who re cently tested the ability of a couple of blind persons to de tect objects by the sound echoes they reflect. It has been known for a long time that bats fly safely In the dark and catch insect prey at night by listening to the echoes of their own rap idly repeated cries. The bat's split-second ability to analyze echoes, and then alter its course or grab its prey as the data indicates, has won it the admiration of scientists. The porpoise also uses un derwater sound pulses to navi gate and find food. Some night birds, blinded labora tory rats, and sea lions appear to employ echo - ranging, or echolocation, in their opera tions. 'Human Sonar' The ability of many blind persons to avoid obstacles has often been noticed. Now it ap pears inai iney use numan sonar." The blind man em ploys his cane as a probe. But its top-tapping also produces a regular sequence of sound pulses which Kellogg said "is probably the closest human analogue to the remarkable sonar system of the porpoise and the bat." Kellogg cited the case his tory of a blind boy who could ride a bicycle without running into anything. The boy contin uously made clicking sounds with his mouth and listened to the echoes. Ability to use sonar appar ently varies widely among the blind, Kellogg said. But he In dicated that the skill can be acquired-even by blindfolded persons with normal vision and improved upon by train ing. In his laboratory work with blind persons, Kellogg found I lance and even texture of ob what he called remarkable jects "by ear." The ability to ability to detect the size, dis- distinguish different textures 4 jffPr" i '""1 1' ' RACER KILLED - A shoe of driver Glenn Leasher lies on the salt bed in front of the seat in which he was strapped. Leasher was killed as his car disintegrated as it roared across the Bonneville Salt Flats In Utah. (UPI) explains how a porpoise knows whether something in sonar range is a food fish or perhaps a plastic play bag or the hand of its keeper. 'Auditory Scanning Kellogg i blind research as sociates performed their "au ditory scanning" by making whatever natural sounds they considered best for the pur pose. These included talking, singing, whistling, hissing, fin ger snapping, and tongue clicking. Voice sounds, perhaps a word repeated in sing-song fashion, were preferred. One of the blind subjects got so good at echo-sounding that he could tell when a one-foot disk was moved no more than 4.3 inches nearer or farther from a distance of two feet. The subjects also were able to distinguish among disks made of velvet, denim, metal and wood. The different tex tures "sounded different." "These unusual perform ances," Kellogg reported, "show that some blind people can observe amazingly well by means of human sonar. "Future research on this question may bring to light achievements that compare favorably with those of the porpoise and the bat." Foreign Writers Arrested in Cuba Havana - IUPB - Four foreign correspondents have been ar rested and are being held by Cuban intelligence agents for trying to visit Soviet camps on the north coast, it was re ported here today. The group Includes two Britons, John Bland of Reu ters and John ' Barnes, an Englishman working for Newsweek magazine. The others are Raul Casanas of the New York Times and his wife, Sarita Valdcs, of the National Broadcasting coin, pany, both Cubans. Barnes was arrested last week. The other three have been held since they left Ha vana Monday for the Soviet installations.
