Sinatra Resumes
Tahoe Engagement
STATELINE, Calif. (UPD
Frank Sinatra Jr. resumed his
singing engagement at a Lake
Tahoe gambling casino Thurs
day night under almost the
identical circumstances which
existed when he was forced to
"postpone" it 10 days ago.
But when the 19-year-old sing
er stepped out onto the stage at
Harrah's Club, he was no long
er a comparative unknown fol
lowing in the footsteps of his
famous father. He was a young
man whose sensational kidnap
ing had put his name before
people throughout the world.
A few gamblers left their
tables for a quick look at the
youth, whose famous father
had paid $240,000 for his re
lease, but they returned to their
gambling almost immediately.
The young singer returned to
Stateline from Southern Califor
nia by chartered plane Thursday.

COUKECTION AND
APOLOGY
An item in this space in
Thursday's Mail Tribune
incorrectly listed Ronald
G. Beach. 113 Geneva St.,
as one of three persons
arrested on burglary
charges. In fact, it was
(he Beach residence which
was burglarized, and he
was the one who notified
city police.
The Mail Tribune sin
cerely regrets the error,
and apologizes to Mr.
Beach, a respected citizen
of the community for more
than half a century, for
any embarrassment caus
ed by the error.
Barn Fire Fast action by the
Talent Rural Fire Department
kept damage to a minimum
when hay caught on fire in a
barn at the L. D. Davis prop
erty, Route 1, Box 151, Talent
Thursday. The fire was in the
lower portion of the two-story
barn. The firemen were called
at 2:07 p.m. and were at the
fire within two minutes. Dam
age was estimated at only S3.
Judge Critical of
Coos Bay Officers
PORTLAND (UPI) - Federal
Judge Gus Solomon has ruled
against a prisoner's request for
a writ of habeas corpus but at
the same time was critical of
law enforcement officers in Coos
Bay.
The request was made by
Paul C o u r t e r Holland, who
claimed he was coerced by sher
iff's officers and police into
pleading guilty to a rape
charge.
Holland was sentenced in I960
to a five year term for burglary
and to 20 years for rape.
Judge olomon ruled "the re
medy of habeas corpus lies only
when a determination in the
prisoner's favor will result in
his immediate release from cus
today." He said Holland now
was "lawfully imprisoned" on
the burglary conviction.
Judge Solomon ruled "the re
forccment officers apparently
did not tell the prisoner o( his
constitutional right to remain
silent when being questioned.
Records in the case show, the
judge said, that Holland was ar
rested Sept. 6, 1960. after being
under surveillance for several
months, and, after questioning,
confessed to rape as well as
burglaries. Later the same mor
ning he entered guilty picas.
Holland was reported to have
asked for an attorney after his
arrest but none could be located
to come to the police station be-
tore he was questioned, the
judge said.
Judge Solomon said the peti
tion was premature, hut could
be brought before the court
again. .

Candles To Flicker
In West Berlin To
Express Sympathy
By JOSEPH B. FLEMING
United Press International
BERLIN (UPI) - Candles
will flicker in West Berlin win
dows again this Christmas to
express sympathy with East
Berlincrs cut off by the anti
refugee wall.
As in all of Germany, Christ
mas is merry in Berlin but the
candles arc a symbol of the
shadow cast over the city by
the wall that splits it in two
and divides families and
friends.
The wall, built Aug. 13, MM,
now is more than two years old.
This is the third Christmas
spent in its shadow.
The shock, hatred and fear
produced by the wall when it
first went up now has disap
peared. Berlincrs have become
reconciled to it in the sense
that they know it must be lived
with and that there is no pros
pect it will disappear overnight.
Source Ot Sadness
But at Christmas time more
than ever it is a source of pain
and sadness
More than half of West Ber
lincrs have relations in East
drcn, a husband from his wife.
Berlin. The wail literally keeps
mothers from seeing their chil
dren, a husband from his wife.
This always is a cause of
suffering. At Christmas, a fam
ily holiday, it is doubly so.
But Germans celebrate their
three-day holiday happily and
despite the wall it will be
merry.
Prosperous City
West Berlincrs, who live sur
rounded by Communists with
an ever - present threat, arc
thankful that they have sur
vived another year, that their
city is free and prosperous.
In their own prosperity they
have not forgotten their less
fortunate friends and relations
nn the other side of the East
West German border.
They have flooded post offi
ces with packages for the East.
No one is starving in East Ger

Christmas present in the West
but it is a cause for joy in East
Germany.
Again this year as a sign ot
solidarity with East Berlincrs,
West Berlincrs were asked to
place their lighted candles in
their windows.
Nut Forgotten
The candles were designed to
tell East Germans they have
not been forgotten and that
some day Germany and Berlin
will be reunified.
Christinas is a three-day holi
day in Germany. It begins on
the afternoon of Christmas Eve,
and the day after Christmas is
a legal holiday. '
Although West Berlincrs may
not enter East Berlin West
Germans may. Many thousands;
of West Germans sched-j
ulerl trips over the holiday to;
West Berlin so llicy could cross
the Wall and meet relations in
the East. !
