Dakota Prison
Revolt Ends
SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (P-Thcir
23-hour riot ended, inmates oi the
6outh Dakota State Penitentiary
were back to their normal quici
behavior today.
Thn rpvolt slopped lute yester.
dav. onlv 25 minutes after tile
nearly 300 milliiiK rioters in a largo
cell block were ordered to relcaso
tho guards they held as nostuges
or else "faco the consequences."
The ultimatum by Gov. Sigurd
Anderson and Warden O. Norton
Jameson came as some 200 armed
Notional Guardsmen, sheriff's dep
uties and other officers stood out
side the block. '
The hostages, Georse Read and
E. F. Lambertson,, were freed and
escorted to safety' by 25 highway
patrolmen, who were sent unarmed
to the block gate.
The guards said they hadn't been
hurt or even seriously threatened.
Gov. Anderson called the oui
break an "unnecessary riot" and
wild he will order an investigation
into its cause.
Jim revolt s'.nrted as the pris
oners were finishing their evening
meal Monday. Using tear gnu,
guards herded the rioters into the
cell block and snapped the heavy
doors shut,
Ai first there were three hos
tages, but one of them, guard Mel
vln DeYoung, was released in the
afternoon. The convicts said they
freed him to show their "good
faith" In their dealings on griev
ances over prison conditions.
Gov. Anderson, in announcing
the riot had ended, said, "We
made no concessions."
A large force of sheep dogs
specially trained to be locomotive
conscious by British railways
watch for the approach of trains
and herd the sheep in the fields
to points of safety.
two propositions will be voted on
at the same time on the same ballot
at the special election on Novem
ber 9. A majority will signify ap
proval.
Voters In the area benefited
will vote at the Floyd Hoover home
on construction costs and at the
regular precinct polling place at
the Earl Mack home on operation
and maintenance.
Estimated cost of the drainage
project, which will improve and re
claim 1787 acres of land In the Mil
ler Hill district, Is S89.000 or about
$50 per acre. Only acreages now
assessed for irrigation taxes would
be included.
It is anticipated that the repays
ment would be over a 20-year per
iod at on estimated cost of $2.50
ner acre annually, Interest free.
The loan would be sought from the
federal government through the
U.S. Bureau of Reclamation.
Land operators whose farms will
be benefited by the drainage pro-
cram are asking voters of the Klam
ath Irrigation District to assume
future operation and maintenance
costs pro-rated over the entire KID.
In previous elections the Miner
Hill pump and the Adams Polm
Hume were given the nod of ap
proval by voters with the KID as
suming all costs. In the present pro
posal landowners in the area bene
fited will assume all construction
costs and are asking that KID as
sume only operation and mainten
ance costs.
The proposed project calls for a
pump west of the Midland Grange
Hall where a drainage ditch would
be deepened to about 18 feet from
its present seven foot depth.
Installation of the pump and deep
ening of the main drainage canal
will not entirely solve the drainage
problem. Some of the land, in or
der to realize benefits of the drain
age program, will require leveling,
application of gypsum and soil
flushing.
An economic study of the crop
census report taken by the USBR.
estimates the present net annual
Income per acre of the land as it
is at about $16.50 per acre. With
this same land reclaimed by proper
drainage, the Income potential
would be increased from two to
three times.
This would come about through
Increased yields and changes in
the crops raised. In recent years
only about two per cent of this
land has been in potato production.
There is very little Improved pas
ture and many acres are in low
production crops.
If the potential benefits of the
project are all realized, the eco
nomic study revealed that the costs
including not only construction and
individual reclamation costs but
also operation and maintenance
will be returned to the landowner
at the rate of at least $3 for every
dollar spent.

NOW JUST A MEMORY to most people is this view taken trom'the old Sun Mountain grade
just above the source of Wood. River. The scene is one of the prettiest in the Klamath
country, lying as it does at the head of the beautiful Wood River, best grazing land in the
West. The head of the river has been taken over as a state park in memory of the late Jack
Kimball. Klamathites would do well to keep the beautiful site in mind for picnics and family
outings. photo by Kettler

fices, industry or public health de
partments throughout the state.
Its activities are varied. Affiliate
ed with the American Nurses' As
sociation, the Oregon group porti
cipates in national mid internation

The group seeks belter working
conditions for nurses, furthers
nurses' recruiting1 projects by ol

"This is not a contest," Dr.
Wilster pointed out. "There will be
no highest or lowest score." Samp

uary. Fluid milk products will be
scored in February, ice cream in
March, and ice milk in April.

Medical Show Competes
With Lucille Ball On TV
By BOB THOMAS
HOLLYWOOD I The most con
troversial show of the new TV sea
son is Medic, NBC's scalpel-and-
stethoscope entry to battle the su
premacy of I Love Lucy.
After three years of trying to
fight comedy with comedy, NBC
has pitted a serious show about
doctors in the prime Monday-at-9
slot opposite Lucille Ball and Desi
Arnaz, still the top attractions on
TV. Whether the new show will cut
into Lucy's rating remains to be
seen. Anyway, the costly Medic has
aroused a lot of talk.
Some of the reviews were load
ed with praise, others panned the
Ishow unmercifully. Many viewers j
think it s good. These Include Miss
Ball herself. "A fine show, but oh
so sad," she told me. "I cried
through it. I'm only sorry I won't
be able to watch it and our show
loo."
Other viewers do not think the
fiht aoainst disease is entertain
ment for the home. We'll see which !
viewpoint prevails.
Meanwhile, let s have a look at
the medic himself.. He's Richard
Boone, 36, a Los Angeles boy.
You've seen him in many movies,
though you might not recognize
him as the clean-shaven general
praclioner on TV. Usually he has
played a deep-dyed heavy with
beard and other disguises.
Without the fake hair and make
up, Boone is a craggy-faced fel
low with deep-set, penetrating eyes.
He rejoiced in what TV has done
for his movie career.
,'Tn the past few weeks that the
show has been on," he declared,
"I have had more recognition, both
In public and in the trade, than
I ever got in the movies. It's a
good thing tor me. Nowadays,
when banks put up the money on
the basis of an actor's draw, you
get paid what you're worth in
terms of the public's knowledge of
you.
"With a face like mine, I never
could have gotten the recognition
in movies the way I'm getting it
in TV."
Boone intends to continue his film
,career, and he a one ot tne lew
TV stars who can do it. He is
committed to appear in only nine
out of the first 26 films. In the
others, he merely acts as host and
narrator.
"The doctors who advise us on
the show insisted that I be a gen
eral practitioner," he remarked.
"When a special field is involved,
I cannot handle it. A specialist
has to be called in. The technical
advisers wouldn't allow it any oth
er way."
He said the show gets plenty of
advice. When the first film was
made, 16 doctors were in attend
ance!

Q: What about supply? Con I get It when
I need it?
A: Simplot's own storage capacity is 15,000
gollons. Brea's distribution station in Mo
lin has a storage capacity of 90,000 gal
lons. We believe that answers the supply
problem.
Q: What do you mean ''metered by the gal
Ion sold by the pound of nitrogen?"
A. It is metered by the gallon like gasoline.
Invoices show gallons of solution and
guaranteed pounds of nitrogen content.
' You buy only nitrogen, by the pound.
Q. And you say that nitrogen in a water
carrier works Better?
A: Exactly. Nitrogen in solution handles bet

Above-ground work is done by efficient
transfer pumps, which save time and dol
lars on delivery, fieldside handling, and
application.
Below ground, the water carrier sooks
ommonic nitrogen into soil stocage. It in
sures fast-acting, long. lasting nitrogen
nourishment to crop root systems, even in
dry soil or cool weather.
Q: You mean that my crop nets more nitro
gen when it is applied in o solution form?
A: Thot's exactly right.
