RESIDENT OF
CRYSTAL HEARS
STI
A possible clue In the myster
teui disappearance of Mr. and
Mrt. C. E. Walbert, missing Med
ford fliers, haa reached the
chamber of commerce here from
Mra. Fred O. Brown of Crystal,
. on the west aide of Upper Klam-
, ath lake.
Mrs. Brown wrote the cham
ber that on a foggy day, about
the end of December, she heard
a plane flying over the Brown
ranch. The Walberta disappear
ed on November 29.
The Crystal woman said ahe
noticed the sound of the plane
on the foggy day, but did not
give it further thought until ahe
heard of the Walberts, disappear
ance.
A check at the Klamath air
port showed that no planes left
the local port on November 29.
A few days after the Walberts
. disappeared, however, a plane
from the field here flew over the
west shores of the Upper lake,
looking for signs of the missing
Medford couple. Nothing of
' consequence was sighted.
It is believed possible the
plane heard by Mrs. Brown was
a Culver Cadet plane which flew
' over this area on November 30,
looking for the Walberts. This
plane was seen over Crater lake
on November 30 by local people
who were surprised to witness
a plane up on a day of heavy
.tot.
MEDFORD. Jan. t VP) The
, directors of the Medford Flying
. club have voted to extend their
, 3250 reward offer for the find
ing of the bodies of Mr. and Mrs.
C. E. Walbert, missing Medford
couple, until February 13, Ches
ter Hubbard, president of the
, organization reported Friday.
The reward was originally post
ad to expire Monday, January
1.
The Walberts, members of the
elub, left this city Friday, No
vember 39, in small cabin
plane for Portland, and disap
peared, their fate unsolved.
Hubbard said be had received
scores of letters from all over
the state, some of them of
"crank nature," since the trsg
edy, - and that tome ground
searches had been made. Hub
bard further said air searches
had been conducted as long and
as thoroughly as weather condi
tions would permit Clearing
weather, he said would undoubt
edly spur both ground and air
searches.
Reports of hearing a plane,
apparently lost on the afternoon
of the Walbert's departure have
been received from the Tiller-
Trail, Prospect-Union Creek,
lower Kogue and Eugene sectors.

NLRB CALLS
FOR ELECTION
AT TIONESTA
(Continued From Page One)
Last summer Shaw workers
voted "no union" in a two-way
election in which the CIO's IWA
was the only labor union on the
ballot. The AFL charged the
CIO with raiding an AFL pep
meeting prior to the balloting.
In the ruling received Friday
the labor board stated that "all
production and maintenance em
ployes of the company at its Ti-
onesta plant including sawmill,
box factory, machine shop, yard.
planing mill and green chain em
ployes and watchmen and ware
housemen, but excluding all em
ployes engaged in logging oper
ations, clerical, store, sales and
supervisory employes, cookhouse
employes and employes of the
Lawrence Warehouse company,
constitute a unit appropriate for
the purpose of collective bar
gaining,, and that such unit will
insure to the employes of the
company full benefit of their
right to self organization and to
collective bargaining and other
wise effectuate the policies of
the Wagner act."
The decision further states
'The IWA and the company ad
vanced no argument for inclu
sion of the truck drivers as dis
tinguished from other woods em
ployes . . . Local 2544 desiring
to exclude them along with
other woods employes." The
truck drivers were excluded.
Officials of both the CIO and
the AFL said they are prepared
to participate in the election,
Joe Boyd and Mike Pavolka,
AFL organizers in this area, said
the decision states that there
are only 24 IWA-CIQ designa
tions in the mill unit.
Boyd declared that "there is
no doubt" of the proper AFL
bargaining organization, and that
the AFL contends that an elec
tion should not be necessary.
"It would be proper and le
gal," Boyd said, "for the com
pany to recognize the union
without an election. "However,
we are prepared to participate,
L. H. Fenton, international
representative of the IWA, said
mat his organization Is also pre
pared to participate.
Commenting further on the de
cision, Boyd said, "We feel es
pecially good because every
point for which we contended,
even in minor details, was
granted. Our members at Tion
esta appreciate the length to
which the government has gone
to give them a chance to get
a collective bargaining agree
ment." REACHES KOBE
