'Dishonest'
Lobby Purge
SACRAMENTO. Calif.. Dee. 12
l Oovernor Warren came be
fore a special session of the Call-
fonua legislature today with a
plea to drive "dishonest" lobbyists
out of the state capltol.
In stinging terms and yet
with a good word for the majority
of legislative advocates the chief
executive outlined stepa to out
law "disreputable" practices and to
stamp out "corrupt" lobbying.
Warren elaborated on other is
sues In his proclamation, calling
his eighth special session in seven
years. These touched mainly on
the changeback from state to
county handling of aid to aged
and needy blind: funds to help out
poor school districts and new pro
visions to cope with sex crimes.

Girl Lost
On Yule
Tree Hunt
KELSO. W.h, Dec. 12 (IP) A
16-year-old girl, lost since yesterday
In a rugged, snow-blanketed forest
near here, was sought amid snow
and rain today by her desperate
family and a sheriff's posse.
The volunteers who worked vainly
through the woods all night pinned
their hopes on Ruth Aberle's Olrl
Scout training, trusting that her
knowledge of woodsmanshlp might
have helped her to survive the cold.
Two inches of snow blanketed the
rough, heavily-timbered country
where tha Wot Kelso girl disap
peared from her friends on a Christ
mas tree hunt yesterday noon.
Brave Mother
Ruth's mother searched the woods
last night until she collapsed, ex
hausted, and was taken to a hos
pital. Early this morning che slipped
out of her bed and went back to
the rugged forest to search again.
The father, a brother, and two
sisters went dogpedly on hunting,
along with some 75 volunteers and
sheriff's deputies. The army was
asked to send men. and a helicopter
was expected to arrive later.
A light snow fell through the
night, but begnn turning to rain this
morning. It war still bitterly cold.

tion director.

On the rink. Smith said, "we now
hive three 1500 and ibree 750-watt
Ughta Instead of tha former two
1500-watt lights.
"In case of snow," Smith said,
"Mansanlta, Wllford and Washing
ton streets will be guarded against
traffic and children may coast on
these hills." Parents are anked to
keep children off other streets tor
coasting. i
The hillside by Conger school was
bladed smooth this year and wiU be

Warning
Smith warned Ice skaters that
skating on canil.i and upper Klam
ath lake Is definitely dangerous.
Especially so until colder weather
freezes the canals.
"Klamath lake Is always danger
ous," Smith said. "Because of the
hot springs, a warm current la pres
ent in the lake and keeps the Ice
thin. This year an earthquake may
have opened more springs and ire
formations will be very thin on the
lake."
