Stalino yesterday.
Stalino, a city of 435,000
population, lies on one "of the
two main rail lines between
Moscow and tho great Caucasian
oil fields.
A bulletin from Adolf Hitler's
field headquarters, describing
Stalino as one of the most im
portant armament centers in the
Donets basin, said axis forces
took the surrounding region yes
terday and that "Stalino itself
was taken by Alpinists." These
might be either German or
Italian troops.
"The reich's war flag is fly

city," the German high com

Nazi military commentators
reported that the southern axis
armies were led by picked units
of Hitler s own elite guard.
They indicated that Rostov,
gateway to the Caucasus, soon
would probably become the
pivot for a gigantic new encir

Resumption of

PORTLAND. Oct. 21 UP) -1
Claude Buchanan, president of

of Oregon and Oregon State
the Oregon Taxpayers' fed era
new a battle over science and
commercial courses.
He said the matter was to come
up at the state board of higher
education meeting at Ashland
next Monday and Tuesday.
"The university covets the de
partment of pure science that
was allocated to the .college by
the survey commission, enjoin
ed by state law in 1929. No
doubt the college will counter by
requesting that commerce, that
was developed at the Corvaliis
institution, and allocated to the
university, be restored to the
college. All of which will mean
reinstatement of the principle of
duplication of courses at the sep
arate institutions and defeat of
the principle for which the uni
fied system was created," Buch
anan said. . . j . .
"Taxpayers r ' entitled " to
know why the board has chosen
to receive the chancellor's rec
ommendation and taktr action, on
this important matter af he
meeting 'h" Ashland as far as
possible from the interests in

Buchanan said he was making
his statement in an effort to

Farmer Faces
Charges for
Chaining Wife J
VANDALIA, 111., Oct 21 (UP)
An information charging false
imprisonment was filed in Fay
ette county court Monday against
Meal Cahoon, 62-year-old farmer
whose arrest Saturday resulted
in discovery that he chained his
19-year-old wife head and foot
to a bed each time he left his
112-acre river bottom farm.
Cahoon was held in lieu of
$1000 bond on a charge of as
sault with a deadly weapon. The
accusation was filed by three
railroad section workers who
claimed Cahoon, at the point of
a gun, forced them to sign con
fessions to intimacy with his 19-year-old
wife, Rosie.
.Sheriff C. F. Chesier discov
ered the imprisonment Saturday
when he went to the river bot
tom farm to arrest Cahoon. He
found the house padlocked, but
MrOXJahoon shouted from the
'inside her husband was "in
town."
, Arrested later in Vandalia,
Cahoon refused to give Cheshier
the keys to his home until the
sheriff threatened to break down
the door. -"Cheshier,
after unlocking pad
locks and chains on three doors,
found Mrs. Cahoon in a bedroom,
a log chain around her neck
binding her to the head of an
iron bed. Another chain wound
through the foot of the bed and
was attached to a 60-pound piece
of iron. At her side was her two-
month-old son, Nealius.
"He treats me all right," Mrs.
Cahoon told the sheriff when
she had been freed from her
chains. "He's just afraid I'll run
off."
When she was asked to ac
company Cheshier to Vandalia,
she said:
"But I can't go this way. My
clothes are locked up in the corn
crib." Cheshier, working through
three other sets of padlocks and
chains, finally obtained her
clothing from the crib, 200 feet
north of the house. .

theory that the Oregon's coast

earth shock of a second's dura

miles south of here, Sunday
night.
He said that earlier, unfelt
shocks, centering In a fault on
tho continental shelf about 100
miles offshore, where other dis
turbances have been reported In
recent years, might have caused
the huge waves that washed out
two bridges and damaged docked
boats.
