Looking for an excuse to get
out of work we find that our
finger Is still too sore to do any
really serious typing. So we de
cided to compromise and let outers
do our writing for us.

column:

ALONG NATURE'S TRAIL
by KEN McLEOD
The growing season for plants is
making itself evident across ine
face ot the land and Motner na
ture's floral displays are appear
ing everywhere around the coun
tryside: and in human activity, our
farmers are busy getting In their
crops for the coming season. Soon,
however, we will begin to hear
about the annual cry against the
algae that will grow and nourisn
in abundance In the waters of Up
per Klamath Lake. Here is one
ctod of Mother Nature's that man
does ant appreciate, yet it is a tre-
menduous one for it fiounsnes
across the whole 00,000 acres of
lake surface. Unlike land crops,
however, the algae is not confined
to the surface of the water area
as are farm crops to the surface
of land area, but grows with equal
vigor and abundance through
every foot of the lake's depth with
the possible exception of some of
the deeper waters along Eagle
Ridge. Just how deep the algae
grow and flourish In our Klamath
Lake waters is still to be deter
mined by future study though we
do know It is found in abundance
down eight to ten feet. Water tem
peratures, of course, play a de
cided role in the growth of the
plant.
Conservationists who have spo
ken of life on the earth depending
upon three inches of top soil, did
not make note of the exception of
aquatic life, for on the basis of a
three inch depth for a crop our
little 80.000 acre body of water in
terms of algae culture is equiva
lent to a 2,000,000 acre farm. How-'
ever, here is a crop which is hard
ly appreciated by man.
This algae which is particularly
obnoxious to man is known as
Aphanizomenon and as far as I
know has no common name other
than "algae," unless it may be ac
companied by some unprintable
descriptive terms. The single word
"algae," however, is far from sat
isfactory for there are many
species of this great group of
plants growing in the Klamath Ba
sin, and, unlike the common Ap-
. hanlzomenon some of the plants
, are comparatively rare.
Amongst the rarest of our algae,
of course, is the so-called "Mares
Eggs," the algae colonies which
have attracted so much attention
because of their odd appearance
and rarity. Mares Egg Spring on
the west side of Upper Klamath
use, not far from Fort Klam
ath, has had the greatest
amount of publicity, yet,
this algae Is to be found at sev
eral other locations in the Klamath
Basin, particularly the springs at
the head of Wood River and Spring
Creek.
Our relationship with algae Is a
curious one for while we fume and
threat eternal destruction to
Aphanlzomenen it is beginning to
appear that we may eventually be
forced to take measures to protect
the "Mares Egg" from destruction;
for curiosity of human beings to
wards these rare growths of plant
life leads to their destruction.
When the average human learns
that the green boulders covering
the bottom of the spring are not
rocks but plants It is only natural
to want to fish one out and sea

the only ones I can name and
remember.
From local writers we turn to
a fellow editor and let him carry
the burden of the rest of this
screed. He's Giles French, editor,
publisher and printer's devil of the
Sherman County Journal up at
Moro. An ex-legislator, where he
was known as a scourge and a
thorn in the side to bis enemies and
a tower of strength to his friends
when you could tell the difference
a sourdough cook ot no mean
achievement although he uses bran
with 'em (a practice we consider
one step more hideous than de
vouring your own young) and one
of the leading raconteurs of the
Oregon Territory.
Anyway, on the subject of spir
itous beverages he has this to
sav:
"Odd, isn't It, how many whis
keys bear an appelatlon alluding
to their age?
"Old Crow, that's flying whiskey:
Old Granddad makes you sit in
the corner and sigh for better
days; Old Forrester sends you out

one a dosage for a particular ait.
ment.
'Because whiskey is supposedly
rendered more notable with age we
may be spared the possibility ot
ever having any New Deal Whls-
kev or New Look Whiskey. That
is a distinct relief in itself. New
things kinds bore me. They are
supposed to be good Just because

And with that we take off to
plant those petunias. Great plant,
those petunias.
what it Is composed of and so an
egg Is fished out of the pond to be
cut open to reveal its Jelly like
consistency.
The satisfaction of human know
ledge is a commendable trait, how
ever, the unfortunate part of the
Mares Egg problem is that people
seeking to satisfy their inborn cur
iosity usually attempt to take the
largest specimen, rather than one
of the more numerous smaller
ones. We know practically noth
ing about the growth of
of these colonies ot algae but from
general observation the conclusion
is that their growth is very slow
and large specimens may be
many years old. No one has ever
made a study of this algae species
to determine its factors of growth.
This gradual extraction of the larg
er specimens gradually leads to
the eventful destruction of the bed
and already beds of Mares Eggs at
the head of Wood River have been
destroyed. We suspect that propo
gatkm of the species occurs chiefly
from the large, old colonies and
this is one reason for the disap
pearance of the more accessible
groups.
Mares Eggs are known by the
technical name ot Nostoc amplls
sium, the species being described
by Or. W. A. SetcheU in 1899 from
specimens discovered near Pasa
dena, California, which indicates
Its wide distribution on the Pacific
Coast. SetcheU' s colonies, however
did not reach the gigantic size of
the groups living in our Klamath
Basin springs. In writing about the
eegs you may nave noted that I
have used the word "colonies"
rather than plants because each
one of the "Mares Eggs " is com
posed of thousands of individual
Nostoc plants growing together in a
gelatinous media, like a ball of gela
tin, enclosed in a thin transparent,
greenish-black membrane, or sac.
The Individual cells are so small
that to be seen they must be ob
served under a microscope, which
reveals the algae cells arranged In
long filaments within the mass of
Jelly.
Stray Fawn Has
Fun In Town
PASADENA, Calif. I PI A stray
fawn had a lively afternoon of It
yesterday.
Wandering down an arroyo from
the San Gabriel Mountains, it
was seen leaping over the hood of
a car. Then It entered a Jewelry
store by the rear door, slid across
the slick floor and upset a stool
occupied by Jeweler W. E. Mc-
Nair.
Next it bounded out the front
door onto Colorado St., the main
thoroughfare, and two humane of
ficers and police officer Duke
Roberts chased it six blocks.
Roberts fell on It in a courtyard
of All Saints Episcopal Church,
where the nimble animal sought
sanctuary.
It was taken to a humane society

WASHDJOTON HI The French
are like' Samson cutting his own
hair.
Although they don't have as
much strength as they'd like to
believe, they still throw it away
by thinking as Individuals Instead
of as a nation.
French troops are heroic as
ever, as they showed in their hope
less stand against the Communist
led Vietmlnh at Dien Bien Fhu in
Indochina.
But at home the pollticans and
the people are so confused and
divided they have had 19 cabinets
since their liberation in 1944.
No longer the great empire of
the past, they try to act like one.
Yet they could not have held Indo
china this long without American
aid.
In 1940 their Maginot Line wus
overwhelmed by the Germans with
a new kind of war. a blitz of planes
and tanks, for which the French
were unready.
Yesterday Premier Laniel told
the Assembly that now, 14 years
later, French at Oien Bien Phu
were organized to resist one type
of army but were unable "to meet
the attack from a Chinese type.
If the French could face reality.
they might have given the Indo-
Chinese people Independence long
ago and won their wholehearted
support for the war with the Viet
mlnh.
Instead, they stalled and haggled
letting Ho Chi Minn, the Commu
nist leader ot the Vietmlnh. pose
as a national hero and leader of
the fight to free Indochina from
the French.
While Ho, in this role of libera
tor, won the sympathy of the In-
dochlnese even behind the French
lines, the French were unable, or
wouldn't, build up an Indochlnese
force on their side to match him.
American officers might have

HAL
NEW YORK i.fl In 1920 a
young bank teller named Fred
erick Bickei got paid $7 for a sin
gle day's work as an extra In a
silent movie.
Overwhelmed at this vista of
sudden wealth, Bickei decided he
was tired of counting other peo
ple's money and went adventur
ing into the world of the theater.
Some of the other tellers natur
ally thought Bickei was crazy to
give up a nice warm Job in a cage
for an actor's hungry freedom.
But in this case the banking world
lost a handsome teller and gained
an even more handsome depositor.
By 1937 Frederick Bickei was
known by sight to more people
than J. P. Morgan under the name
of Frederic March. A U.S. Treas
ury Department report listed him
as having the nation's fifth largest
earned income $484,687.
Today March, a veteran of some
50 plays and 58 motion pictures,
Is still handsome and youthful
looking. But he and his equally
talented wile, Florence Eldridge,
have taken a long hard look at the
years behind, and the years ahead
and decided the rest of the Jour
ney should be more relaxing.
They've had plenty of fun along
the way and brought up two child
ren, but they worked hard for both
money .and tame.

French wanted no part of that, per
haps because they feared a strong
Indochlnese force might turn
against them.
The United States had helped the
French in Indochina with materi
als and planes flown by the
French. The Vietmlnh got 'help
from the Red Chinese but had no
planes.
They fought the French In
guerilla bands and In mass waves
and, at Dien Bien Phu, with mod
ern Chinese equipment.
Thus the Vletminh, starting out
almost eight years ago as a rag
ged collection ot Guerrillas, has
Increased enough In numbers and
power to have the French dazed

Year alter year the United
States has been trying to get the
French to seee the Importance of

munity the single European

themselves to do It, largely be
cause EDC would include rearmed

This country looks upon EDC
if It ever becomes a reality, as the
heart of any European defense
against the Russians.
French Foreign Minister Georges
Bidault Is meeting In Geneva now
with the Americans, British, Rus
sians and Chinese to work out a
peace in Indochina. The Commu
nists know the allies are divided.
This doesn't strengthen Bldault's
hand.
It wasn't strengthened last night
wlieii the French Assembly gave
his boss, Premier Joseph Laniel,
a vote of confidence by a margin
of only two voles, which is hardly

Coalello, convloled of federal in

Coalello appeared oil the verue
of tears last night when the Jury

been out of Jail leas thnu seven
mouths.
The OS-year-old defendant, who
allegedly headed a national under
world syndicate for yea is, paled
and burled his face In Ills lunula.
Trembling, he lighted a cigarette.
During the wait lor tho verdict
he had put on a allow of cheerful
ness, bantering will! newsmen and
friends about baseball.
Costello was released last Oct.
39 Irom Hie Federal Correctional
Institution at Milan, Mich., niter
serving 14 months of an lB iiiomh
sentence for contempt of the Ke-
fauver crime luvoailuutlitg com
mittee when he refused to answer
several key questions and twice
stalked out of hearings.
The Hallon-born Costello whose
gravel voice grated the ears ot
millions during the televised Ke
fauvcr hearings here In 1951 also
faces deporlallon proceeding.
The federal Jury ol seven men
and live women, which deliberated
eight hours, found Costello guilty
on three counts of Income tax
evasion. The figure Involved was
$31,015.
Judge John F. X. McOohey set
Mondav for sentencing and raised
ball from $5,000 to $35,000. Cos
tello had been tree on ball
throughout the case.
Defense Council Leo C. Fennclly
announced he would appeal.
The Jury acqltted Costello on
one count of the four-count Indict
ment an alleged tax evasion ot
$13,234 in 1948 which cut the total
trum $53,239 to the $39,015.
At the start, ol the six-week trial,
the government charged he evaded
at least $73,431 In Incomo taxes
from 1948 through 1949, but when
the prosecution's case was com
pleted the amount had been ro
duced (o the $53,339.
Costello did not take the wit
ness stand in his own delense.
In the trial the government,
which spent years in preparing Its
case, leaned heavily on testimony
that Costello and his wife lived on
a scale beyond what would be in
dicated by his reported Income. It
contended that lor the four years
contained In the Indictment Cos
tello had an Income ol at least
$311,000 but reported only $158,000
In his tax returns.
A major delense contention was
that many of Coatello s expendi
tures In 1948 through 1949 were
Irom assets accumulated during
prior years.
Chicago Gang

narcotics ruig last night, Just as
he had feared.
He was slain In the aame violent
manner aa was the leader of his
gang last month. At that tlmo he
told police he was marked for
death.
Police said at least two other
members ol the gang have re
ceived death threats and "are
afraid of their own shadows."
So was Frank Coduto, 47, shot
in the back of the head late last
night' as he drove his car In a
southwest side street. His body was
aprawJed In the middle ot the

Coduto was driving to a social
center to pick up his wife, Ellen,
40. 8he told police sho had seen
him coming and was leaving the
center when she heard shots. She
was the first to reach him.
"Apparently he was shot by
someone he knew and trusted."
said Lt. Matthew J. Mandcrnack.
"He shot him from the bock seat
of the car, the same as Anthony
Pape."
Pape, 40, waa the alleged leader '
of the narcotics ring, which federal
agents described as doing 10 mil-;
