Unique Oregon Law May Determine GOP Standard Bearer By ZAN STARK SALEM (UPI) - Oregon gave President Kennedy and former Vice President Richard Nixon key primary victories in their race to win the presidential nominations in 1960. Under its unique election law, Oregon may determine who will be picked as the Republican standard bearer next year. It appears Kennedy will auto matically get the Democratic nomination. The Republicans have a wide open race. Oregon law requires the secre tary of state to place on the bal lot the names of all he feels are "generally advocated or recog nized in national news media throughout the United States." Secretary of state Howell Ap pling Jr. is scanning eight major newspapers and live national news magazines to determine who is being "generally advo cated." First Used in I960 The unusual Oregon law first used in the 1960 primary was drafted to rule out favorite sons, publicity seekers and self starters. In 1960 Appling listed Nixon and New York Gov. Nelson Rockefeller on the Republican ballot. Rockefeller withdrew. On the Democratic side, Appling listed Kennedy, then Sen. Lyndon B. Johnson, Sen. Hubert Humphrey, Sen. Steuart Symington, the late Sen. Estes Kefauver and Adlai Stevenson. Sen. Wayne Morse got on the ballot by petition. Stevenson and Kefauver withdrew. Kennedy and Nixon won. Even before the new law went into effect Oregon had an impressive record of selecting the men who would go on to win the nominations. Oregon has missed onlv once in the past 20 years. In 1952 the states Democrats elected Ke fauver, who bowed to Stevenson at the national convention. Oregon Gov. Mark Hatfield often mentioned as a vice presi dential possibility, and some times as a presidential dark horse, is expected to play neutral role in the months ahead. Oregon elects its presidential delegates, and delegates are pledged to support the primary victor. By using the Oregon law as an excuse for neutrality, Hat- neia can avoid throwing his sup port to the wrong man. Rockefeller, Goldwater and Hatfield are scheduled to speak at the Western Republican Con- terence in Eugene Oct. 11-12. The conference will take place two weeks after a visit to Ore gon by President Kennedy. OFF TO WASHINGTON PARIS (UPI) - French Fi nance Minister Valery Giscard d'Estaing planned to leave for Washington today to head a three-man delegation to the forthcoming International Mone tary Fund meeting. Try and Stop Me By BENNETT CERF Bodies Sought in Refinery Debris MOSES LAKE. Wash. (UPI) Workers continued to look for bodies today in the rubble of an exolosion-torn plant here which the owners, the U & I Sugar Refining Co., hope to have back in operation within two weeks.

JOHN STRALEY tells about the young Wall Street clerk who was summarily discharged, allecedlv havine stolen $500 in postage stamps. A crusading lawyer, convinced of the young man's inno cence, volunteered to take his case and boasted, "We'll sue that former boss of yours for false arrest, mental cruelty, defamation of character, and several other things I'll think of later. My fee will be $500." "I haven't got that in cash," admitted the young man. "Can I give it to you in postage stamps?" In Buffalo, a, young lady potted this ad In the Help Wanted section: "I need a Girl Friday. Starting salary: J.100 month." One applicant arrived at 6:00 a.m. and waited with ill concealed impatience or the office to open. "You've just got to give me the Job," he told the employment clerk. "Who ever heard of getting S.300 a month for working only one day a week!" A snake charmer was introduced to a. lady undertaker, and after a. whirlwind courtship, persuaded her to many him. One of their most cherished wedding gifts was a set of towels, marked how else? "Hiss" and "Hearee." C 19M. by Sennett Cert. Dlatributed by King Feature. Syndic.!.

Portland, Local Non-Stop Flight Started by Airline West Coast Airlines has short ened air travel time between Portland and southern Oregon with the inauguration of an ex clusive non-stop flight to Med ford leaving Portland daily at 8:35 a.m. The 70-minute F27 flight is the only direct connection between the two cities and it is nearly one hour faster than any com mercial airline schedule. The speed-up also will affect flights to Sacramento via Klam ath Falls. The Portland-Medford sched ule will comprise five flights, two southbound and three north bound. The evening Medford Portland flight has been reduced in time by the elimination of one stop. "These and other schedule adjustments by West Coast Air lines, which have been made possible by the utilization of more jet-prop units and by route compresion, will greatly im prove air service between major Oregon and California points," according to J. Nicholas Bez Jr., vice president and assistant to the pesident of WCA. The faster scheduling has been matched by efforts to provide significant savings in fares and other passenger service fea tures. As an example, our Portland-Medford round-trip fare is the lowest in effect on any air line connecting the two points. "On an overall basis, the serv ice we now are providing Ore gon is the best since the begin ning of our operations there, and it is anticipated that these im provements will continue as ad ditional equipment is acquired."
