One of the photos, above, displayed by Miller, was de

TWA flight between Denver and Los Angeles. Miller said

THE WEEK IN CALIFORNIA
Schirra, Baseball Dominate

The word was "Wow" last
week what with world orbits
and world series.
Mrs. Walter M. Schirra Sr.
San Diego used it first as
she watched the impressive
liftoff of her astronaut son on
liis earth-orbiting flight early
Wednesday morning. But it
erupted on Wednesday after
noon when the San Francisco
Giants made their cliff-hang
ing capture of the National
league pennant. With the Los
Angeles Dodgors out of the
way, the Giants had only to
lace the New York Yankees.
In San Francisco, the city's

day. long after midnight,
downtown San Francisco was
cacophony of auto horns,
shout and breakdowns both
mechanical and otherwise.
Don't Ignore Baseball
Even the gubernatorial can
didates. Gov. Edmund G.
Erown and Richard Nixon,
could not ignore baseball dur
ing their television debate at
a United Press International
Editors conference In San
Francisco Monday. When
iVixon asked Brown whether
he supported the Giants or the
Dodders, Brown said laugh
ingly that he was taking the
fifth amendment.
In other areas, however, the
candidates gave each other Ut
ile reason to smile. From their
olten-heated exchange, came
two issues that undoubtedly
will draw additional sparks
from the two men during the
closing weeks of the cam
paign. -The question of whether it
was "morally or ethically

(.resident, to permit the
Hughes Tool company to lend
$205,000 to his brother, Don

-The question of whether
Nixon endorses or repudiates
two congressional candidates
who are members of the John
Birch Society, and whether
Brown blesses the candidacy
of two Democrats who, Nixon
charges, helped lead the riots
against the House Un-American
Activities committee at its
San Francisco meeting on May

Railroad Vice Presidents Visit
Lumbermen, Fruit Industry
Two railroad vice presi
dents were in Mer ford Friday
"to win friends" -nd sell
more traffic on thi transcon
tinental Burlington lines
Guy R. Glover, vice presi
dent for traffic, declared mid
western agriculture is gen
erally "better than ever" this
fall. There are good crops of
milo, sugar beeis and the pas
ture Is good for cattle
Corn prospects are excel
lent, but the wheat crop was
disappointing. Wyoming and
Montana, through which the
railroad runs, is also better
than ever, he said. Agricul
ture is a main supporter of
the railroad, Glover noted.
Also here was E. L. Potarf,
vice president for operations.
Generally Ffll.'
Glover said President Ken
nedy generally has been fair
in his handling of the railroad
labor disputes. However, a
supreme court decision now
pending will be the deciding
factor, he noted. He repeat
edly urged a user's fee for
highways and waterways so
competition with other trans
portation means would be
fairer.
"You might say our line
carries the goods to the con
suming area," Potarf said.
"We're here to talk to the
pear shippers and the lumber
men. This area is a tre
mendous source of raw ma
terials." Jackson and Josephine
counties have 10 per cent of
the nation's uncut timber,
first degree murder indict
ment against Dr. Geza de
Kaplany for the acid-knife
slaying of his wife. The 36-
year-old former Hungarian
freedom fighter showed no
emotion as the indictment.
charging "muder by torture,"
was read. He had said earlier
that he burned her with acid
and disfigured her with surgi
cal instruments "to take away
her beauty because she was
unfaithful."
Church: Archbishop Joseph
T. McGucken announce that
a new $6 million cathedral in
Stn Francisco will replace St.
Mary's, which was destroyed
by fire four weeks ago. The
archbishop said that he favor
ed a higher elevation than the
Van Ness avenue site of the
old cathedral.
Shooting: A crazed roomer
in a West Los Angeles room
ing house used a revolver to
shoot and kill three persons
and bludgeon to death a
fourth. Police say that the
middle-aged man went ber
serk, beating to death one
man then shooting four per
sons and killing three.
Rousselot: Rep. John Rous-
selot, a California Republican
and member of the John
Birch Society, said that Maj.
Gen. Edwin W. Walker should
be expelled from tne society
if he "did in fact encourage
rioters at the University of
Mississippi."
Ambulances: The electronic
flge is affecting emergency re
quests for ambulances. A
woman called central receiv
ing hospital in Los Angeles
for an ambulance because: "I
can't get up and I want some
one to come over to turn off
my television set."
Rabies: San Diego and San
Bernardino counties were de
clared rabies areas and put
under quarantine. The State
Department of Public Health's
Rabies advisory committee
took tile action because rabid
bats, skunks and dogs have
been found in the areas. Un
der the quarantine, animals
must be confined by a chain,
line or leash or be in a fenced
area.
While: State Supreme Court
Justice Thomas White, 74,
will retire Oct. 31 after more
than 38 years as a California
jurist.
TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON
Local Ag-jnt Harold Pyle
said.
Crones SS Million
The Burlington line grossed
$5 million more this year than
last year, but it." net receipts
are $4 million down from last
year. This is due mainly to
labor and equipment costs,
Potarf said.
"We expect to spend $17
million in new equipment in
an attempt to try to buy cars
which will be useful to peo
ple in the Pacific Northwest, '
Glover said. "This means re
frigerator cars for fruit and
wide door cars for easier
handling of lumber."
"We also buy lumber from
this area for construction of
those cars," Pot. rf said. "The
box car shortage is pretty
bad. In fact all lines are short
of any car whicil would hold
a bale of hay. Use of lift
trucks by industry has made
new types of cars necessary,"
he added.
Glover noted an 8 per cent
increase in passenger traffic
gross in contrast to other rail
roads who have or are think
ing of abandoning passenger
service.
Few With P. Jtengers
Asked why the Burlington
line is maintaining its pas
senger service while others
are abandoning it, Glover
said "we i-re one of the few
railroads which has worked
hard for the passenger busi
ness. In fact, our passenger
boys work harder for their
money than others in the line
because they deal with un
known customers. We don't
know who might be planning
a trip while we have a pretty
good idea which companies
are shipping out their goods
and about when.
None of the lino's passen
ger equipment is old, Glover
noted and indicated this may
be why his line has held onto
this traffic. The Denver
Zephyr, for instance, is a mo
dern suburban train, he
pointed out.
"We will provide passen
ger service as long as people
want it," Glover said. "And
it is not always lucrative,"
he admitted. "The Billings to
Denver route carries far
more express and mail than it
does people, for instance. We
want to be sure the service
abandons us before we aban
don the service."
"Our trains are designed to
move through scenic areas
and carry people not in a
hurry. The railroad is for peo
ple who want to ride com
fortably and sleep comfort
ably," Potarf said.
Irrigation District
Turns Off Its Water
The Rogue River Valley Ir
rigation district is taking all
water out of its ditches this
week end.
All the water will be out
by Monday, according to Har
old Sexton, district manager.
Four flumes will be replaced
in the system, Sexton said.
Considerable tile line work
also will be done, he said.
"We are replacing four
flumes on the main canal, plus
approximately two miles of
tiling of laterals and rebuild
ing the main canal bank for
about a mile," Sexton said.
"The fall cleaning program
will be started right away,"
he added.
Silica Deposits of .
Northwest Reviewed
The most promising deposits
of silica in four northwestern
states, Oregon, Washington,
and Idaho and Montana, are
evaluated by the bureau of
mines recent report released
by (lie department of in
terior. Demand for industrial sili
ca, or high purity quartz sand,
grew rapidly in the Pacific
Northwest after World War
II with establishment of new
glass plants and other indus
tries which use the region's
low cost power supply. Pro
ducing deposits became de
pleted in 1957 and critical
shortage developed.
To supply consuming indus
tries with reliable informa
tion, the bureau checked 82
possible sources in the four
states. Only 16 of 37 high
quality deposits were consid
ered larce enough for eco
nomic development. These
represent future reserves, ac
cording to the report, which
is available from the bureau
of mines.
Accordion Students
Provide Entertainment
Accordion students of Cae
sar Muzzioli entertained at
the monthly Hed Cross party
for veterans at the White City
domiciliary recently.
The trio consisted of Wal
ter, Delia, and Fred Fitzger
ald. Other music was pro
vided by Rich Wells, Linda
Amnion.. Gayle Taylor and
Bill Lindow. Refreshments
were served by Red Cross
volunteers, Mrs. Fred Rehl
inc and Mrs Maude Codding.
Both of the vice presidents
pointed to a continual pas
senger service promotion pro
gram, high school graduation
trains which carry dance
bands, excursion trains, gram
mar school excursions and
many others.
Glover complained about
"subsidized competition." He
deplored the large public
funds being allocated for riv
er channel development. "If
we had all the money spent
on river developments we
could rebuild the entire rail
road network in this coun
try," he said.

icanism" will be the theme

Forest Receipts
Check Is Expected
Jackson county can expect
J454,618.22 in national forest
receipts soon, according to
County Treasurer Karl Jan
ouch. The check, expected some
time today, will arrive a
month earlier than usual, and
will be $79,832.22 more than
last year's check for $374,786,
the county treasurer said.
This is due to an increase in
timber sales, he said.
Three-fourths of the re
ceipts will be allocated for
county roads and one-fourth
for county schools according
to the law, Janouch explained.
This means the roads depart
ment will receive $340,963.67
and the schools $113,654.55.
The total amount represents
25 per cent of money received
from timber sales in the sec
tions of Siskiyou, Rogue River
and Umpqua national forest
lands within the boundaries
of Jackson county.
