Klnmath chamber of com
merco directors at Wednesday's
luncheon adopted a motion ap
proving action of the county
court in protesting a land ex
change transaction in northern
Klamath county between Shev
lin-Hixon company and tne lor
est service.

fication of problems and issues
involved in tne lana oxenange
program. Two committees of
the chamber of commerce are
seeking further information on
land exchange and its effects
on the resources, tax base, etc.,
of the county, and chamber pol
icy with regard to the whole

ed. The court has filed its pro
test with the land office, at
Lakevicw, to which application
was made for tho exchange, in
volving about 16,000 acres
which would go into federal
forest ownership if the project
is approved.

sented a short Christmas pro
gram for the directors. Judith
Brown and Peggy Rakestraw

Explosive Chaplin Faces
Second Day of Grilling
By GENE SANDSAKER
LOS ANGELES, Dec. 20 (.?
It's a new and violently explos
ive Charlie Chaplin one who
shouts "That's a lie! That's not
true!" who faces his second day
of grilling today in Joan Berry's
suit to have him decreed the
father of her baby..
The Chaplin acquitted last
April of a charge of transport
ing her to New York for immoral
purposes was calm and almost
icy when he addressed a federal
court jury then.
Now he is fiery and loud and
slashes the air, twists and turns
and pounds the witness-box rail
as he cries:
"I have committed no crime
. . your honor, I am human . . .
This man (Joan's attorney) is
trying to infer that I am a mon
ster ... I have been verbally pil
loried and lynched. . ."
Joan wants the 55-year-old
comedian ordered to pay $2500
mommy tor. tne support of her
14-months-old Carol Ann who
c ooed so loudly in court yester
day, incidentally, that Joan's
mother, Mrs. Gertrude Berry,
finally had to carry her out.
The changed Chaplin emerged
as he was prodded with such
questions as "what happened
then?" "What did she say?"
by Joan's 77-year old attorney,
Joseph Scott, veteran of more
than half a century at the bar.
Scott, in outlining his case to
the jury of seven women and
five men, said evidence would
show-that Carol Ann was con
ceived in Chaplin's bedroom the
night of December 23, 1942.
But Chaplin denied this. He
said he and his former drama
pupil had broken off their "in
timate relations" months before.
