Mysterious Collector Buys Five Modern Masterpieces "m iuiwy ur A mvs. terious midwestern art collector oougnt nve major masterpieces of modern art Wednesday night in the $1,121,300 sale of fashion designer Larry Aldrich's "old" modern masters. Aldrich unloaded 57 of his collection of 260 modern paint ings at the Parke-Bernet Auc tion Galleries to stake himself to purchases of paintings of younger artists. He said he "no longer was interested" in such "old" painters as Picasso, Cha gall, Andmiro. "I want to help the new painters who are coming along by buying their paintings," said the slim, elegant fashion leader. The competition was spirited but the midwestern collector, who refused to make his name public, paid $271,000 for paint ings by Vuillard, Chagall, Gau guin, Kirchner, and Miro. The man of mystery paid a near- record ?110,000 for Gauguins "The Washerwomen." Top price in the sale was $137,500 paid by department U.S. to Withdraw First Big Combat Unit from Europe PARIS (UPI) - The United States plans to withdraw its first major combat unit from Europe despite German objec tions, sending home 5,000 and perhaps many more men, it was learned today. The withdrawal will involve an armored cavalry regiment and will represent only about two per cent of the Army's over-all combat strength in Eu rope. But informed sources said studies are being made which could result in much larger cuts. U.S. combat strength in Eu rope reached its peak of 268,000 men at the time of the Berlin crisis two years ago when 40,000 extra troops were sent to Eu rope. Some withdrawals have been announced since then. The sources said 35,000 men actual ly have been sent home, a much higher figure than that mentioned in the announce ments. They said the studies could lead to a reduction of a further 33,000 to a figure of 200.000, but the Army may successfully re sist such a major cut. Cavalry Regiment German concern has forced a delay in the plans to pull back the armored cavalry regiment, the sources said, but the move will be made regardless. West German officials fear that such deductions in U. S. forces are dangerous to the Western defense effort. But the 5,000-man cut could be made without reneging on American commitments to NATO. The United States has agreed to keep five divisions in Europe the 3rd and 4th Armored and the 3rd, 8th, and 24th Infantry in addition to three armored cavalry regiments and various smaller units which amount to another combat division. At present, it has four ar mored cavalry regiments the 2nd, 3rd, 11th, and 14th. The 3rd, considered the most likely candidate for shipment home, was brought over from Ft. Meade, Md. as a result of the Berlin crisis. EXCLUSIVE EYEWITNESS REPORT Hp tea' Here is the whole dramatic and heart-warming story of the birth of the Fischer quintuplets told by the nurse who was in the delivery room and who later took care of them. Mrs. Alfred Kirchgasler, a registered nurse for 25 years, shares her moments as an insider on one the great news events of the year in the NOVEMBER 3RD Weekend face of with your copy of the MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE store tycoon George Farkas for monies masterful "Water Lil lies," for which Aldrich paid a fraction of the sale price in the 1940s. Fashion Designer Experts estimated that the fashion designer realized 400 per cent on his investment in the paintings in the sale, all purchased between 1937 and 1951. The money paid for the Mo net will go to the Museum of Modern Art and the Whitney Museum in New York. The rest, w 1 APATHY TOWARD SELLING ABROAD Frenchwomen are hungry for American clothes particularly want to buy our "casual look" dresses made of cotton and syn thetic fibers. To meet this already existing demand and to develop the po tentially huge clothing market in France's cities and growing suburbs, we sold a grand total of $7,232 of cotton dresses and $13,635 of synthetic fiber dresses to France in 1962. Our exports of all clothes to her last year averaged only $112,000 per month which is equivalent to saying we sold her next to nothing. The women of Italy and West Germany a'so are excited by the sort of clothes we produce here about our fashions, our experiments with synthetic materials, our prices. To meet this already existing demand and to develop the po tentially huge clothing markets in the cities and growing suburbs of Italy and West Germany, we sold a grand total of $100 (yes, ten $10 bills) of synthetic fiber dresses to Italy and $40,000 of synthetic fiber dresses to West Germany in 1962. In April, the peak month of exports, our sales of all clothes to booming West Germany amounted to only $492,000. "There is a complete apathy in the United States toward sell ing clothes abroad," says Eleanor Lambert, internationally rec ognized authority on fashions in the U.S. and foreign clothing markets. "We have been terribly stupid," she added flatly in an inter view. "We have people running to Europe to 'observe' markets but nobody does anything about selling. The State Dept. has re fused to sponsor American fashion shows in American Embassies because they're 'too commercial.' Yet the French Embassy has frequent fashion shows in Washington. "AH European countries are constantly sending delegations of textile people and retailers here to study our garment-making techniques and to make licensing agreements. Yet they protect their own techniques from our observers. We don't have any pride about our know-how in this area. We don't protect our techniques. "In the area of high fashion there is no American clothing going abroad except in travelers' suitcases." The implications of this harsh indictment go far beyond the clothing industry, important though this industry is in our country. We must expand our exports abroad to provide more jobs for our workers and to protect the profits of American businessmen. We must expand our exports overseas to earn the dollars to cover our spending overseas, to narrow the deficit in our balance of payments and to curb the outflow of gold from our reserves. We must expand our exports to other nations simply to maintain our proud position, as one of the leading financial, commercial and economic powers of the world. Yet, despite the pleas by the administration, the hoopla about boosting our exports, the high-level foreign trade conferences in and out of Washington, our performance on trade expansion has been mediocre. In the first eight months of 1963 our trade surplus was at an annual rate of $4.6 billion, a seemingly hefty figure but it's down from the level of a year ago. Our imports of good are up 5 per cent while our exports are up only 3 per cent. Worse, when the totals are broken down, the record shows up as even more disappointing, for U.S. exports not tied into foreign aid or our farm disposal programs have been just creeping up. The rise of non-government financed exports in the past three years has been only a meagre 1 per cent a year. The pathetic indifference of so many businessmen is high lighted by the clothing industry. Although a few pioneers are starting to move into Europe to "explore" the market, most in the field are either ignorant of the exhilarating possibilities or are afraid to venture out or are discouraged by artificial barriers that could be broken down if they would make the effort. The story is capsulized by the comment a statistician for the International Ladies' Garment Workers Union. "Some of the trade totals are so small," said he "that nobody bothers to compile them." What an indictment of U.S. business ingenuity and drive, circa 1963! in Family including $100,000 for Picasso's "Seated Nude," will go into Al drich's pocket for expanding his art collection along "modern lines." One of the paintings sold Wednesday night, a Pierre Sou lages abstract, was about as modern as you can get. Al though it was displayed upside down and nobody objected, it brought $6,000. "If you'll raise the bid you can hang it any way you want to," said auctioneer Louis Mar ion. "It's bound to be a conver sation piece." Your Money's Worth By SYLVIA PORTER Ccpyrlf ht.

Henrietta W. I deprive myself of things, but he doesn't. Jeffrey W. She shouldn't kick as long as I stay within our budget. Henrietta W. Is it right for my mother - in - law to hand my husband extra spend ing money when he uses up what our budget gives him? We managed fine for five yeears. Then my father-in-law died and, since Jeff is the only child, his mother came to live with us. She's pleasant and I have no major complaint but her quiet handouts to Jeff knock our bud get haywire. He should do with out, as I do. . Jeffrey W. The way my wife talks, you'd think I'm roll ing in easy money while she has to scrimp and scrounge. All that happens is my mother slips me a five or ten-dollar bill to help finance my hobby, which is pho tography and expensive. Henny will profit in the end, because I won't have to tap our savings for my cnlarger, and she'll have more for clothes. Why deny my mother this pleasure? The Council: Why, in deed? Because Mom's pleasure is Henrietta's pain. Slipping a cushion of cash to Sonny-boy un der the table is divisive and dis criminatory. It leaves wifie out. It makes Jeff cleave closer to his mother. To keep her happy home in a menage-a-trois, a smart mother-in-law has one guiding rule: Whatever I do must bring these two closer to gether. If she sticks to this her presence can be a vitamin, not the secret donations. Also, she's upset because spending is no longer a matter of joint confer ences. She can't keep track of how much Jeff has, and for what . . . Improvement of this situation can result if Ma "ba bies" Henrietta, too, with those bonus bills, and the budget is revised.

(In Budapest, the Hungarian news agency said flatly the two space pioneers would marry, probably Saturday.") Valentina, or Valya as she is known to her friends, is 26 years old and has indicated that she wants to continue space flights even after she gets married. The attractive girl started out as a paratrooper. But last June she was at the controls of Vos tok VI as it covered 1.24 mil lion miles and whirled around the earth 48 times in less than three days.

LOCKER BEEF SPECIAL (Q)C 2s lb Cii' CHRYSTAL MEAT MARKET 4th and Fir 772-7315 t Tolerance to Skin Grafts Reported By Researchers SAN FRANCISCO (UPI) - Some hope for producing toler ance to tissue grafts was of fered today by a medical col lege of Virginia research team. So far. they were quick to add, there has been no practi cal application of a hopeful new technique devised at their laboratories. But their research works to ward a major medical problem of finding ways to make the hu man body accept the transplan tation of organs or other tissue from other persons. Normally, as in the transplantation of kid neys between persons who are not identical twins, the body re jects the foreign tissue. The Virginia findings were re ported at the 49th annual clini cal congress of the American College of Surgeions, where dis cussion of tissue transplants has been a popular activity. When Injected Dr. John A. Mannick said the Virginians had recovered from rabbits a substance which indi cates transplantation immunity when injected into the skin of the animals. By repeated inoculation of this material, known as an an tigen, it is hoped that tolerance to tissue grafts will be produced in adult animals. Most methods used in trying to make animals tolerant to tis sue grafts consist of repeated injections of massive number of living foreign cells. The usual result is what is known as "runt disease," deterioration of the animal leading to death. Mannick said the Virginia re searchers had produced an an tigen from spleen cells ot rab bits, and because the antigen was non-living it could not at tack the rabbit. ExDeriments to test the prac tical usefulness of the antigen are being made, Mannick said.

Modern office buildincs and stores make great use of glass, even in their doors and entryways. Occasionally we hear of some one walking into an all - glass door and injuring himself. In such a case, is the proprietor liable for damages? tn the majority of cases, where a person walks Into a stationary glass door and is in jured, the courts have held the oronrietor not negligent and hance not liable for damages. In one case the court noted that the door was in good repair and that the proprietor was not negligent simply because the door was one large piece of glass. Even so, the court said, the door was not wholly invisi ble, and a door is to be ex pected at the entrance to a store. The court added that door fronts of solid glass are com monly used today and are ac cepted as sound and safe build ing construction. Different facts may well change the result and make the owner liable. Such was the case where a hotel installed a glass wall between a lounge and the lobby closing off an entry used for some time. Also, where an office building had glass doors marked with red reflector tapes, and removed the tapes without warning. So, too, a home builder was liable to suit for injuries to a child who walked through a slid ing glass door at an open house. The child and its mother had just visited a similar adjoining house, also open for display, where the sliding doors to the patio had been open. The court here was especially careful to point out the greater duty on the owner, who should have an ticipated children would be at tending the open house with their parents. 12 or Whole and Wrapped Free i 1- 1963 B 5 LOW BID ONTARIO, Ore.
