Statement on Basin
Project Submitted
To Subcommittee
Pnhcrt R Dtincan. Medford
npmnrrat and sneaker of the
Oregon house of representa
tives, nas suDmmea iencr
anH tapmpnt to the rivers
and harbors subcommittee for
inclusion in the record on the
Rogue Basin project.
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.

Soblen Inquest
Adjourned at
Police Reqest
London - IUPI) - A British
coroner's Inquest into the
death of Dr. Robert A. 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

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.
