Not Guilty
Ulysses Pord, 27-year-old Ne
gro garage worker, was free Tues
day after a Circuit Court Jury
found him not guilty of forgery.
Ford was arrested by state po
lice on a charge of forging the
name of Bob Mest, Klamath Falls
automobile dealer, to a 1110 check.
At a pre-trial hearing Ford
claimed he was intimidated dur
ing questioning by officers.
The Jury was out less than an
hour. It was reported they voted
for acquittal because the check
Ford was accused of trying to
cash was so orudely executed that
a person of average Intelligence
would not have accepted It. A store
clerk was Investigating the check
when Ford left the store.
State police said Ford tried to
cash the check at Big Y Market
Wo. a. ,
After the verdict was read, Judge
David R. Vandenberg ordered
Ford's release from the County
Jail. Ford was represented by At
torney Donald A. W. Piper. He
contended the state had failed to
connect his client with the bogus
check.

gome things remain constant and dear,
t' the hamburger sandwich,
the baseball bat t
and the taste of Olympia Beer.
So if you're distressed with the changing times,
Hie "sensational," "different" and "new"
and you look for a name
that's always the same,
just ask for Olympia Brew
It's sparkling and bright, delicious and light,
And always tastes like it should,
it's the hops and the grains
and the brewer's great pains,
"It's the Water" that makes it so good.
"It's the Water" that Hows in those underground streams
That has given Olympia fame, . .
! that brings out the flavor . :
. : that so many savor
and always remains just the same.
