"Wild Man" Prows Area
In Klamath River Canyon
By BILL JENKINS
A "wild mnn" has been reported
In the wild and rugged area of the
Klamath River canyon near the
California border.
first report of the mysterious
stranger came from Bill Hoov
er, a rancher whose plnce lies
about four miles north of Beswlck.
The Hist indication of strange hnp-
penings occurred on the night of
July 30 when the Hoover's dog
stnrted raising a ruckus around the
barn. Hoover, armed with a shovel
and a flashlight, went out to Investi
gate, thinking that the dog had
probably cornered a skunk under
the barn. He found no signs of
either prowlers or skunks and
eventually the dog quieted down.
Shortly thereafter, while Hoover
and Dale Olscn. his 18-year-old
nephew, were- haying the dog
again Ntartcd narking around tne
burn. The two men took separate
ends of the barn and circled the
structure hoping to spot whatever
It was the dog was after but saw
nothing. However Mrs. Hoover,
who was looking out the window or
the house several hundred feet
away, saw the stooped figure of a
man dart out of the barn and
scuttle Into the brush.
When the two men gave up their
search she told them about seeing
the' figure. They Immediately
checked for tracks but were un
nolo to find any traces In the
rocky, brush choked terrain.

Missing Link High way
Boon to Klamath Area?
By WALLACE MYERS
Let's start today's Klamath Basin
story In New York City.
Let's gaa up our car In the At
lantic Coast metropolis and bead
straight lor the. Pacuic coast.
We've got a straight shot right
through Cleveland. Chicago, Des
Moines. Omaha. Cheyenne, Bait
Lake City and Wtnnemucca, Nev.
We've now covered some 3,100
mile aad e're-"Only-about- 300
miles Irom the Paclllo coast.
But what's happened to the
road? We did great until we hit
Wlnnemucca, But In that thriving
little Nevada city our straight-shot
route abruptly ended and the high
way spilt. One prong wanders olf
down south to Reno and San Fran
cisco. The other half goes meander
ing olf up through Boise and
eventually into Portland.
MISSING LINK
Except for one little missing
link, from Wlnnemucca to Alturas
or Cedarvllle, Calif., we could have
continued on to the coast. As it is,
we're at the end of the trail so
far as our straight-shot hopes are
concerned.
Look at the map above. From
any point In the vast Midland Em
pire, If you want to go east by
surfaced highway you must either
take the long Jog down to Reno
or circle lar up Into the Boise
country.
Let s consider a trip from Klam
ath Falls to the east. From Klam
ath Falls to Wlnnemucca by way
of Reno, which Is the popular
route now It's 451 miles. But If
we had that Alturas-Winnemucca
road, the distance would be cut to
247 miles-
You've no doubt heard many
times of the "Wlnnemucca to the
Sea" proposal. This Alturas-Winnemucca
road is a vital link In that
plan.
LESS CONCERN
The Klamath Chamber of Com
merce has perhaps concerned it
sell less with this project than with
many others. But the chamber Is
strongly aware of lis importance
to the Klamath Country.
Curt Lion, operator of La-
field when they heard a piercing
scream from the vicinity of the
house. Hoover grabbed a pitchfork
ana he and tne boy rati to Uie
house where they found Mrs. Hoov
er. She, too, had heard the scream
from the nearby brush but had seen
no sign of an intruder. Again the
ground was searched for traces but
nothing showed up. No tracks, no
bits of cloth torn by thorns or
brush, no dropped articles.
After these alarms a search of
(he area was made by several
men In a group but again no trace
was found.
Several days later Lowell Jones,
who Is logging in the area, his
boy and several of the crew were
walking down a small clearing near
the river when a stone was hurled
at them from a high bank back
of the river. It did not strike any
one In the party but scored a near
miss. Seconds later another rock
was flung but thev were unable to
spot where It came from. They
fanned out and searched the entire
area without finding a clue of any
sort. The country there, some five
mile below the Old Frane ranch.
which Hoover leases. Is extremely
tugged, lnnacessible except on foot
and extremely rocky and brushy.
Two dcnutles were sent ud from
Yreka to inveslgate but thev met
with no success. Since the rock
throwing episode the screaming
man nas not appeared, out a close
watch Is being maintained on tha
stretch ot. river and surrounding
territory. . , -, ,
FRIDAY, AUGUST I, 1951
Polnte's here, is the recognized
Klamath champion of the project.
The case he presents for the need
and advisability of the road Is so
convincing you wonder why the
road wasn t Duut- many years ago.
(In later articles we'll have more
to say about Lion's argument.)
Actually, of course, big reason
why the Alturas-Winnemucca high
way hasn't been built Is that by
far the- greater part of the route
Is tn Nevada and Nevada has no
particular need or Interest In such
a road.
As a matter of fact, Reno win
almost certainly battle tne laea.
You can see whv. The road would
undoubtedly take a sizeable volume
oi visitors away irom iteno.
BEST BET
The best bet is for the road to
be built as a federal project for
military and defense purposes.
That's the approach favored by
the Klamath Chamber of Com
merce.
As for the road's commercial
value to Klamath Falls we must
call your attention to the fact that
Distribution IS one oi our major
businesses here. Availability of that
Alturas - Wlnnemucca highway
would certainly be a tremendous
boon to tuat business.
We'll devote an entire article to
Distribution later on. Right now
well leave you with this fact:
Kiamatn f ans even now is
ranked as the fourth largest Dis
tribution center In the Northwest.
Some of our leading businessmen
contend that Distribution could
easily become our LARGEST bus
iness.
Let's think more about that miss
ing link to Winnemucca.
Police Probe
Assault Tale
A 54-vear-old transient. Patrick
Mullen, is held In the City Jail
while investigation is being made
of a 17 - year - old girls story
that he raped her last mgnt. .
The girl also is held in the city
lockup.
Mullen was booked for vagrancy

She said Mullen, who also was
taken into custody on S. 6th, had
come up to her at the bus depot
yesterday afternoon and that In
their conversation she told him she
was hungry, and had not eaten for
two aays. ,
He took her to a restaurant and
bought her a meal, and then they
parted company. Later in the eve
ning, the girl told police and Ju
venile Officer Francis Mathews,
she again met Mullen In the bus
depot and that they took a walk
down to a railroad spur on 8. 6th.
There, she said, they sat down
and he tried to persuade her to
have intercourse with him. She said
she refused, but that he forcibly
attacked her.
Mullen admitted meeting the girl
at the bus depot and buying her a
meal, but said that they parted
down the street yesterday after
noon and that he didn't see her
again. He said he was In a Klamath
Avenue tavern most of the evening.
The girl said that she was an
escapee from Fairvlew Home, the
state's Institution for mentally de
ficient persons.
Mullen admitted to police that
he has been in jails In several
states in the Midwest and In Cal
ifornia, and that he had Just been

Friday to President Truman'a ug

Sen. Joseph C. O'Mahoney of
Wyoming, chairman of the Senate-
House Economics committee, told
a reporter he thinks such action
at this time would be futile.
Sen. A. 8. (Mike) Monroney of
Oklahoma said he believes me gov

Sen. Maybank (D-SC). chairman

his weight against the special ses

Maybank said, "I do not see what
results can be gained."
POLITICS
Republicans generally were In

thing of a political harassment
move directed at them. '
There were indications he mav

Stevenson ha accepted a Tru
