Mrs. Emma Kcnncy, employe of the city of San Francisco, and her daughter, Anne, have been guests this week of the Welcome Motel, Tuesday morning about 10 a.m., they went out on the river in a rowboat, with Anne at the oars. In attempting to change scats In the middle of the river, the boat capstred, pinning the mother be neath. She managed to extricate herself anri rennh thn xlri nf (tip boat to which her daughter was I holding. Neither Is an experienced swimmer. Their screams attracted the at tention of two teenage girls, Nancy Bradley, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jesse Bradley and MarJIe Wolf, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Erwln Wolf. Bradley, a lumberman, and Wolf, who operates the Steelhend Tavern and Cafe, both have homes near the scene of the accident.

The river is approximately 100 yards wide and some 30 feet deep at that point. The rescued boaters were unin jured but both had swallowed con siderable water. They both report ed touching the bottom of the river bed before coming to the surface, admitting that it was a frightening experience. "The quick work of those two girls averted what could easily have been a tragic ending to that vacation." stated LUlard, Klamath Falls fight promoter who had re turned for final details of Friday night's fight card.

Selling In soybeans was based in mri mi mrpim of more rain overnight In northern sections of the main growing belt, plus a feeling on the part of some grain men that current prices are high in view of the proapect of a large crop. Early in the day wheat staged a fairly brisk rally, largely In sympathy with gains at Minnea polis:. Wheat went to a new sea sonal high at the northwestern market.

United Fund The United Fund Board of Di rectors Wednesday evening voted to accept the drive goal of $117,132 recommended by the budget com mittee. This amount Is $901 less than the amount raised last year; $7,569 more than the goal set. Even if this year's total goal is raised, all of the agencies' needs will not be answered since their original budg ets have been cut to a figure which the budget committee feels is in line with the economy of the Police Catch 'Meanest Man' A man who could easily qualify as a candidate for the title of "The meanest man in town" was arrest ed Wednesday afternoon by city po lice. Robert Lee Sasser, a tall lanky 22-year-old resident of Hilllard. Florida, admitted to officers that he had passed six worthless pieces of paper off on a blind man as one dollar bills. According to police, Sasser also signed a statement admitting the robbery at the Lucky Lanes Bowl ing Alleys last Monday night. In another statement the Florida man stated that on six different occasions last week he had pur chased cigarettes or a newspaper at the confectionery stand- on the courthouse lawn at the corner of Main and Fourth Streets operated by Pete Jones, giving him a piece of a Nevada road map and telling the blind man that the paper was a, one dollar bill, then pocketing the change from the purchase. Sasser told officers he arrived here July 23 and had worked as pin-setter at the Bowling alley three or four nights. After the robbery Monday night he was the number one suspect. When arrested Wednesday a large quantity of cigarettes and cigars were found in his car wrapped up In a pool table cloth. A pair of bowling shoes were also in the car. In his statement admitting he had broken into the bowling alley Sasser named a local lG-yeaiold lad as an accomplice. The boy has been picked up and is being held by Juvenile officers.

Fund officials pointed out that six to 12 per cent of the total goal is recognized as the average amount for expenses In campaigns of this size. Klamath County's per centage Is about eight and a half of the total goal and is $2,000 less than last year expense account. Attorney Slsemore told the group that two new agency applications had been denied, for several rea sons. The agencies are Travelers Aid and American Hearing, both of which have affiliates helped by Oregon Chest. A committee was appointed at the meeting to select acampalgn chairman. The committee includes Roy Murphy, Willard Ward and L. Ernest Taylor. The board is considering three subsequent applications for the po sition of executive secretary, if hired, his salary will come from the total figure budgeted for year around operating expenses. The three definite posslblities for the job can all be secured for a sal ary much less than the original figure quoted for Jim Shelton, Ore gon Chest man. Death Claims Ivy M.
