Wrong Side oi Road
Homer UePuy, a sailor on
leave from Treasure Island,
Calif., was driving north on
highway 97, having just turned
on the pavement from the Mid
land road, state, police say, when
the Chevrolet coupe driven by
Mrs. Schciscl struck the DePuy
car. A truck driver who wit

that she was on the wrong side
of the road.
The impact locked the left

highway before it turned over
once, and the DePuy vehicle
went 150 feet in the other direc

least three times.
Passing motorists took the
four young people and Mrs.
Scheisel to the hospital before
police and an ambulance ar
rived at the scene. Mrs. Ware,
her legs almost cut off, her
abdomen, chest and head
mangled, was found 25 feet
away from the Scheisel car, ly
ing on the pavement near the
center line.
Death Instantaneous
Dr. George H. Adler, called
to the scene, said that death
was instantaneous. Her body
was removed to Ward's Funeral
home. Both cars were almost
entirely demolished.
Mrs. Ware is survived by her
husband. Warren A. Ware, and
two young daughters, Shirley
Fay and Dolores. She is a na
tive of Grand Rapids, Minn.,
and has been in Klamath Falls
for three years. She has been
employed at the Buffalo Lunch
on S. 6th as a waitress.

Pacific Terrace
Wants Clean-Up
Some 100 property owners on
Pacific Terrace have signed a
petition to the city for coopera
tion in cleaning up the parking
strips on that street.
The petition will be presented
at tonight's session of the city
council. According to property
owners, their clean-up campaign
will cover the parking strips
along Pacific Terrace with the
exception of two blocks which
residents have planted in lawn.
The matter of a clean-up in
that area has been brought up
before, but because of a man
power shortage nothing could
be done.

A reciinllulallon of the bomb's

attack-transports, tne Carlisle
and the Uiiliam, sunk. The de
stroyer Lamsoit was capsized
and later went down, and the
destroyer Anderson was so bad

The Japanese cruiser Sakawa

Fires still were burning late
tonight aboard the carrier Inde

Animals Live
On the deck of the Pennsyl
vania, contentedly chewing hay
were a number of goats which
had been placed aboard to de
termine the effect of atomic
f-ncrgy on animals. Rear Adm
Thnrvald Soltierg said the goats
"had a gleam In their eve and
seemed perfectly happy.1'
There have been no reports
of what happened to animals on
other snips, particularly those
near the center of the lagoon.
The bomb burst as seen from
this press ship was something
like a fairly unusual sunset.
There was little noise, a alight
heat v.ive, and no heavier sea
as a result.
Correspondents had been pro
vided with darkened goggles,
and warned against looking di
rectly into the "terrific glare."
They were cautioned not to
Cerch on a precarious position
ecause they "might be knock
ed off by the biast."
After It was over the news,
men looked at each other with
bewildered expressions.

ABOARD USS APPALACH
IAN OFF BIKINI, July 1 iA)
Tile most beautiful sight of the
atomic blast was that seen on
the Appalachian by S 1c Ken
neth 1 horn, who kept his uncov
ered eyes looking directly at the
flash all the time, despite warn
ings all aboard should wear spe
cial dark goggles.
Thorn, who lives In the Bronx,
New York, unwittingly contrib
uted a new scientific chapter to
the A-bomb explosion, lie saw
the first flash aa a bright red
ball. Everyone who kept his
glasses on saw this flash as
white.
What happened to Thorn was
that in the first few millionth
of a second, the flash caused
slight blind spots in the center
of his eyes. Because of these
spots he saw red color for a
few seconds.
"Boyl" he exclaimed. "It was
the most beautiful thing t ever
saw. I can't describe the bril
liance of the red ball I saw. It
was a lighter color than a red
stop light. It was alive. It spread
In a flash to a big red ball and
the color turned red-yellow. I
never dreamed anything could
be so brilliant."
Firecracker Sets
Off 'Little Bikini'
PORTLAND, July 1 lP)
One suburban neighborhood
today was talking of Its own
little Bikini, touched off when
a youth tossed a firecracker
into a fireworks stand.
Skyrockets whirred down
streets and made spectators'
battle stations precarious.
Cherry bombs blew ud and
regal romnn candles arched
through the air as $1000
worth of Fourth of July mer
chandlse roared and crackled.
While owners hunted for
the elusive culprit the fire do-
