BILLBOARD
By BILL JENKINS
Klamath Falls has a lot of things
to set It off from the usual run-ot-the-mlll
towns. And not the least
of these assets Is the absence ol
. Broadway.
' Look around you. Pick up any
Tecent volume of Rand-McNalley
and see how man)' towns can boast
of this distinction. Everything from
Podunk to Pindle Falls has a street
or avenue named Broadway. It
would be a safe bet to say that
mere are more Broadways than
there are Main Streets.
We narrowly averted the threat
a few years ago when there was
some talk or renaming South sixth,
but that has gone by the boards
now and seems to be safely out
of the way.
Good for Klamath. Let's hope
our future generations do their
part In keeping this sacred trust.
Most familiar sight around the
Basin these days are the fields
filled with spud pickers. Despite
the advent of modern machinery
we still have need of the back
breaking labor put in by humans
at this chore. And if you think It
ain't a back-breaking chore then
Just go out and try it for an hour
or two. You'll find out in a hurry.
There is something satisfying in
any harvest scene. No matter now
firmly the city is instilled in you,
no matter how deep the concrete
has penetrated Into your system,
no one can get away from an in
stinctive surge of pride in his land
when he watches the crops coming
In. It s all part of what makes
tne worm go rouna ana wnat
makes human nature what it is.
And it isn't all bad. Honest It
isn't. It Just seems like It, some
times. Mt. Laki rates high in architec
tural circles these days with the
new church Uiere nearing comple
tion. The new edifice is a wel
come addition to the Basin and is
a good example of what can be
done if you Just try. When finished
I have an idea it Is going to be
one of those buildings that seem
to fit In the picture instead of
standing out like a sore thumb.
There isn't anything much worse
than putting up a new house or
building of some sort and then
having It look as though it had
been dumped there by a ill wind.
This one certainly doesn't. It lends
a restful and comfortable air to
the neighborhood.

Stevenson Attacks Republican 'Old Guard'
As Campaign Moves Down Pacific Coast
By JACK BKLL

Specially in the shooting.
HAL BOYLE
By SAIX PETT
(For Hal Boyle)
NEW YORK tfl All In all. 1
had a rather Jazzy timt at the Na
tional Hardware Show.
I met some lovely young blondes
who knew even less about hardware
than I do but more about hardware
men.
I talked with three talented my
Bah birds who tried to sell me
electrical appliances.
I also watched a gripping pup
pet show and picked up a free
sample of "scru-Ute screw an
chors." All was relatively quiet In putty
knives, plungers and peat moss but
at the next booth a man said I'd
be surprised what they're doing
these days with doweling Jigs,
ratchet tap wrenches, feeler gauges
trammel points and repairmen s
reamers.
Early In my tour, I discovered
that there is such a thing as left-
handed cutting snears.
Then I weighed myself on a piece
of aluminum screening to prove
how strong it was and that proved
rather dismal. My weight, I mean,
not the screening.
Crossing to another booth, I
talked with an executive-type per
son who whispered confidentially
that the trend is definitely swinging
away from plastic back to wooden
toilet seats.
Moving from power drills wttn
an attachment for mixing whisky
sours or cake batter. I met a well
formed blonde coming down the
aisle.
She wore a string of pearls, pearl
'earrings, blackturtle-necked sweater,
black shorts, high-heeled shoes and
across ber chest a sash indicating
her heart belonged to "Llnzer
paint brushes."
Rather bored with the question,
the young lady said she wasn't
supposed to know anything about
brushes. She was Just supposed to
walk around.
Most hardware men, she admit
ted, are nice but hardware wits
don't flee from the obvious. Item:
"You won't give me a fast brush,
will you?" Item: "Can we paint
the town red?"
Over the roar of power saws,
drills and hammers, a strange
whistling drew me to the West
lnghouse booth featuring three
talking mynah birds named "Tee
vee" and "Acee" and "Deecee."
"Acee" and "Deecee" occupied
a duplex cage with built-in micro
phones. I
A lady led them through some
enchanting dialogue in which
they said they were fine, darling,
meowed like cats, w rustled lute
a man wolf and said goodbye In
a male and then, an octave higher,
in a female voice.
Pulling a curtain off a third
cage, the lady asked "Teevee"
about Westingnouse and the bird
said, "I'm fine, darling, bow are
you?" .
The lady said she was fine and
how about Westingnouse and the
bird said, after a tense moment.
"you can be sure II It s westing
"It took me a whole year to
teach him the lull commercial,"
th ladv said.
In another booth. I watched the
"Pat Percv Puppets," act out
"Hardware Hilarity." which really
h.rt little hilarity until after some
complications and tense moments
the little hardware oeaier imaiiy
won his girl by selling a lot of
Skil portable tools."

peared In the aisle, wearing a

In the fishing ana nuuung equip

Among the lawn mowers, seed

showed up in a strapless ballerina

tempting to ride two political hors
es in California.
Scoffing at what Eisenhower
calls his "crusade," Stevenson said
his Republican opponent had felt
it necessary to take different posi
tions in different stales. The Illi
nois governor declared in a speech
prepared , for delivery from the
Capitol steps In Sacramento:
Here in California he has tried
the delicate job of being both a
Warren Republican and a Nixon
Republican."
Stevenson repeated a virtual en
dorsement of Republican Gov. Earl
Warren an endorsement that won
applause from a Democratic audi
ence which bulged San Francisco's
Cow Palace.
The same audience, the most re
sponsive he has had In his travels.
booed1 lustily when he mentioned
the name of Eisenhower's vice
presidential running mate. Sen.
Richard M. Nixon of California.
Stevenson said last night that
Nixon had proposed an investiga
tion of the "extravagant charges"
made against Oen. George C. Mar
shall. Eisenhower's good friend,
adding:
As for Nixon, we would take his
enthusiasm for Investigation and
disclosure more . seriously If he
would do a more complete Job on
himself."
This was an allusion to Nixon's
explanation of an 18.U00 fund
raised bv Callfornlans to pay some
of the senator's expenses.
Stevenson said in an address
prepared for a University of Cali
fornia audience at Berkeley that
Intellectual Ireedom laces, a threat
from those who "crusade against
communism in the hope thereby
to smother all ideas and silence
all dissent."
Nixon has contended he brought
Alger Hiss to Justice and has criti
cized Stevenson for giving Hiss a
character reference.
"My opponent in this campaign
has made his peace on their
terms with men who fear the fu
ture and hate the present." the
Democratic nominee declared.
What he still calls his crusade has
been Joined by men who stand only
for a past that Is dead and cannot
be disinterred."
It was a wildly cheering recep
tion that the estimated crowd of
33.000 gave Stevenson.
Stevenson neaped ridicule on
what be said was the "team of Iso
lationists and cut-throat reaction
aries" be contended Sen. Robert
A. Taft of Ohio was quarterbacklng
for Eisenhower.
From mv mall, from the growth
of switch clubs, I have a hunch
that . a lot of people. Republicans
and independents, have decided
that It is Indeed time for a change
to the Democratic ticket," he
said.
They told us in July that the
general had saved the nation from
Taft." he sa d. "BUI In BeptemDer,
the general handed over his sword
to the man from whom he had Just
saved the nation."

Unrest Grows In Coal Fields
As Wage Hike Deadline Hears
PITTSBURGH OH Reports of boost of 10 a day,
growing restlessness came from
the nation's coal fields todav In the
wake of a strike threat tossed at
the Industry by John L. Lewis,
president of the United Mine
Workers.
Several thousand miners are oft
(he Job to back up demands for a
pay hike being held up pending
approval Of the Wage Stabilization
Board.
While there Is no indication that
the walkouts will spread quickly,
both coal operators and the miners
are keeping a close watch on
Washington for developments.
The miners' anxletv over wheth
er the WSB will approve the pay
hike negotiated for them bv Lewis
was heightened yesterday when the
mine chieftain told his members to
refuse to work after Nov, 18 unless
mine operators hs"e made their
Increased royalty payments to the
BMW welfare fund by that date.
The contract, now up before the
WSB, called for an Increase In the
royalty payments of from 30 to 40
cents a ton In the soft coalfields.
The contract also provides a wage

In wlndini ud the UMW Conven

gates the contract specifies that
each operator certify by Nov. 18,
and the 18th of each month there
after, that he has paid the royalty
covering production for the previ
ous month. Lewis added:
"I don t want any union to go to
work on the 18th unless it Is found
that the welfare Is paid. There are
no Us, and nuts about it. The morn'
ing of the 18th Is the deadline."
Shortly after Lewis spoke five

closed bv a walkout. Closest source
to the UMW said the men appar
ently stayed home awaiting the
WSB's approval of the $1.80 pay

Approximately 3.159 Kentucky
miners were reported on strike.
Another 1,200 were off the lob at

"A coddess has lost her necklace
Of topazes, wondromly fair
And It lies a ahlmmerlng tangle
On heaven's bine tsplstried
stair."
To the pen of the poetess P.
Ina Burgess we are Indepbted lor
this beautiful description of the ap
Dearance of a small group of tiny
stars which gisce tne eastern nor
iron as soon as a clear inaian
summer day of mid-October has
faded into night. Tennyson wrote
of them that as they "rise through
the mellow shade' they "glitter lute
a swarm of fireflies tangled In a
silver braid." The Hebrew Job and
the poet Milton speak of their
"sweet Influences."
These descriptions refer to the
little asterism known variously ss
the Seven Stars, Seven Sisters, or
the plelades (ple-ya-deez.i To the
present writer, this charming little
group coming above the sky line
considerably norm of aue east ana
into the lower sky where haze la
predominant, has the' appearance
of a tremulous little cloud. The In
dividual stars are not prominent
until they are higher In the
heavens. .
Unusually bewitching are these
stellar maidens, for once sighted
they hold one's attention in. a
rather mysterious manner. More
light seems to emanate from the
cluster than can possibly be ac
counted for by the six or seven
little stars visible to the unaided
eye.
The explanation is evident when
only slight optical aid is employed.
Then we find many stars in the
network which singly are Just be
low the brightness of easy
visibility, but whose collective lu
minosity we actually detect. Bmall
opera glasses show a dozen or
more stars; strong field glasses,
60 or 60, some In the most at
tractive arcs and figures.
Powerful telescopes reveal mul
titudes of stars in the direction of
the Pleiades, but only about M0
are thought actually to belong to
the group, all members of which
are receding from us at about five
miles per second. Some investiga
tors find their distance so
enormous that It requires 600 years
for their light to reach us. Others
make It somewhat less.
In classical mythology, the
Pleiades were the seven daughters
of Atlas, the giant who carried the
earth on his shoulders. Their
names were Alcyone, Merope,
Electra, Celaeno. Mala, Taygeia,
and Asterope. Orion often tor
mented the lovely sisters by run
ning after them. But the great
Jupiter finally changed them to
doves so they might fly to the
safety of the heavens, where even
today when high In the sky, this
cluster is sometimes seen as a
flock of little birds.
Vif sometimes read of the Inst
Pleiad, for most eyes cannot see
the seventh sister. Unusually good
eyes can detect nine or even II.
I "The general tells us not to wor
ry," ne saia. "uoveriiineiit, lie
says, is Just a matter of team
work. But that doesn't encourage
us for we know the names and
have the numbers of the players
oil the general's team. At quarter
back, Sen. Taft."
Naming Nixon at left halfback,
he continued:
"At right half Sen. Jcnncr of
Indiana. Only last week Sen. Jen
ner boasted again that . . . what
tile general hat been saying ... Is
'what I have been saying through
out my six years In the United
States Senate.' There Is no more
consistent Isolationist, no more pro
found reactionary In the Senate
than Jenner of Indiana."
The crowd rocked the rafters as
he declared:
"The general's team Is not the
forward-looking Republicans who
fought for his nomination in Chi
cago. It Is the Old Ouard and the
Old Ouard never changes except
for the worse. They don't even
fade away."
