BOMB OVER SAN FHANCISCO-A Navy
practice bomb dropped out of the sky over
San Francisco Friday, bouncing first (see
diagram) in the middle of Market street
(1) then bouncing over an eight-story build
ing, smashing against a building on Pine
si. (2) and finally falling to the pavement
below (3). En route, a fragment from the
bomb shattered a window in a building
on Market st. (4). Luckily, no one was
hurt. The practice bomb, which contained
a small charge designed to give off a
cloud of smoke on impact, failed to ex
plode. Several hours after the incident,
the Navy identified the responsible pilot
as Lt. R. A. Kincr of Anaheim, Calif.
He was on a Toutine practice mission, un
aware that he had lost one of the six prac
tice bombs his plane carried. (UPI)

nual convention of the Nation
al Editorial association.
He said today's reporter
needs more education to mcel
more complex and exciting
challenges than did the re
porter who began his career
a few decades ago.
Newsmen would talk less of
managed news, Swangard
said, "if reporters knew what
they were writing about."
Managed news Is an ex
cuse for laziness in our re
porting staffs," he added.
The editor said the Ameri
can Newspaper guiia nas
done much to improve the fi
nancial lot of newspapers but
not much to Improve the
quality of newspapers. He
said the system under which
newspapers operate on the
North American continent of
fers little opportunity for the
working newsman to advance
the standards of his profes
sion. Meanwhile, the Eugene Rcg-isler-Guard

Portland - 0IPD - The Big
Six bargaining association
and the Timber Operators
council appeared united
against two striking Pacific
Northwest lumber unions Sat
urday. They took their stand after
representatives of the Inter
na 1 1 o n a 1 Woodworkers of
America and the Lumber and
Sawmill Workers unions and
the Simpson Timber company
announced agreement of a
three-year contract here Fri
day. The pact, which must be
ratified by union members at
Simpson plants, calls for a
wage increase amounting to
33 cents per hour during
a three-year period.
A spokesman for the Big
Six said we consider it ex
tremely unfortunate that
Simpson Timber company has
made a settlement which we
consider uneconomic.
No Change Seen
"The six-company associa
tion has no interest in a set
tlement with the union at this
figure. There has been no
change in our resolve. The
association ' was not formed
with an eye to collapsing at
the first evidence of an agree
ment which we cannot consid
er economically justifiable."
A spokesman for the Tim
ber Operators council said
"the terms and projected cost
of the tentative agreement
reached between Simpson
Timber company and the
IWA and LSW unions' repre
sentatives does not represent
the general thinking of other
employers throughout the in
dustry. "It is regrettable that Simp
son Timber company appar
ently felt motivated for rea
sons best known to the com
pany to reach such an agree
ment. We are completely con
fident, however, that the set
tlement is and will be con
sidered economically unsound
to this general industry.
"It cannot be construed to
be the basis of a pattern in
other negotiations current 'y
in progress.
The lumber strike has put
25,000 men out of work in
Oregon, Washington, Montana
and California.
Major companies affected
are the members of the Big
Six Weyerhaeuser, Crown
Zellerbach, U.S. Plywood, In
ternational Paper, St. Regis
and Rayonier and the
Georgia-Pacific corp.
Georgia-Pacific would not
issue a formal statement after
the Simpson announcement.
However, a spokesman did
say that the settlement would
have no affect on the CP ne
gotiations with the two
unions.
The Big Six and CP have
no meetings scneauiea wun
the unions.
The Timber Operators coun
cil represents 196 lumber and
wood products plants in Ore
gon, Washington, California
and Alaska.
The strike began June 5
when the unions put up picket
lines at U. S. Plywood and St.
Regis plants.
Other Big Six members
closed down in a retaliatory
lockout.
The unions claim a mem- i
bership of 70,000 on the Pa-j
cific Coast. The membership
is about equally divided. '
Details of the Simpson con
tract were not disclosed but
unofficial sources said the of
fer of hourly wage Increases
provided for 10 cents retroac
tive to June 1, five cents un
til Dec. 1, 7l2 cents until next
June 1 and 7'4 cents until
June 1, 1965.
