Slashed on the face and beaten was Richard Bukovic. 19. des cribed by police as a member of Kruse's gang. Bukovic, Kruse and four other youths were held by police without charge in connec tion wit)) the shooting and fight ing. : , ; Chief of Detectives Patrick Dee ley said the shooting occurred aft er several youths drove to the Cor nell Square Park at 51st and Wood streets and approached White, Melant 'and Gerald . Sternal, 17, who were sitting on a park bench Deeley said Sternal told - him Kruse warned White not to move and when White advanced, Kruse fired once. Then,' he added, when Melant got up, Kruse- fired three more shots, two of them striking Melant. White, a high school seni or, was shot in the heart and was dead on arrival at a hospital, Melant was shot in the chest and right arm. Kruse and his companions ran to the two cars they had driven to the park but Bukovic was left behind in the park, Deeley said Sternal told him. A dozen youths, attracted by the shots, ran to the park from s nearby candy store. Sternal 's ac count, to Deeley continued, and they grappled with Bukovic, who was slashed at they struggled. Twenty stitches were required to close Bukovic i wound. Deeley said neither Bukovic nor any of the other youths questioned would give any reason for the at tack on the youths.

Ifl Dr Jack Knowles, a Miami, Fla veterinarian, thinks the tranauili zing drugs may be the answer to the postman's prayer. He told the American Medical Veterinary Assn. that use of the "happiness pills" to transform mean mutts into docile dogs is growing. They seem to work better on dogs than on humans, he said, but not on PAWT UCKET, R. I. (JB-John T, Godfrey. 34, credited with shooting down 37 German aircraft during World War II, says he is suffering from an ailment 'which may kill him in a year or two. ; He told the Pawtucket Times by I telephone from his home in South Freeport, Maine, that doctors ad vised him he has amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. " . I Godfrey also said last night that I the ailment is similar to muscular dystrophy, which damages the i motor pathways and cells of the' central nervous system. j He said a doctor told him he has "one to two years left." Godfrey is married and is the father of two sons, aged 10 and 8. "I'm not discouraged," he said. "I guess the Lord was pretty kind to give me those extra 14 years to live. Ajhen I recall all the close ones , (uT World War- H) I feel pretty grateful and lucky for the extension." - - - - , Godfrey received numerous mil itary decorations for his heroism. GREAT RESPECT ITHACA. N. Y. IB-Vice Presi dent Nixon says he has "great respect for Sen. Kefauver as campaigner." He said of 'his Dem ocratic opponent: "Anybody who can keep going. , , as he has. . . must have an iron constitution." But Nixon added with a grin, "I wish him well in that respect only. respondent at Salem, is touring the state to learn what the voters and those active in politics are thinking at this point in the cam paign. This story reporting on his contacts in the first congressional district will be followed by others as he reaches into the other dis tricts.) - . .. By PAUL W. HARVEY JR. Associated Press Staff Writer "If anybody writes 'Republican' or 'Democrat' on my tombstone, I'll roll over in my grave. I'll de cide the night before election who the biggest liars are, and .then vote for the other fellows." That's the way H. J. Barkley, a retired Albany accountant, feels about the election. He's just plain tired of hearing all of the charges and countercharges. A tour of Northwest Oregon showed that a lot of people feel the way Barkley does. ' It also indicated that the big issues, such as natural resources. power and the farm problem, are of primary concern to profession al politicians. The average votef in this part of the state doesn't talk much about them. While the chief election interest is the bitter struggle between Sen. Wayne Morse and Doug McKay, many of their charges may be falling on deaf ears. After stop- Dine scores of persons on the street, only a handful mentioned the big issues. MORSE UPHELD Morse supporters generally say he's a smart man, a friend of the little man and is experienced. McKay supporters usually men tion that McKay is honest and sound, and that President Eisen hower needs his support. A surprising number of people don't know what the Al Sarena mining issue is about. Public pow er, in this section of the state at least, often gets scant mention as so they don't feel much affected by the farm issue. Republican politicians and news paper editors in this area agree on one thing McKay is in trouble. When the final registration fig ures are in, the First Congression al District, which includes the northwest area of the state, prob ably will be the only district with a Republican majority. McKay will have to win North west Oregon by a big margin if he hopes to win the election. Since the primary election last May, the Democrats have out gained the Republicans in regis tration in the region. That is causing the GOP leaders great concern but they aren't gloomy. TYPICAL COMMENT A typical comment from a staunch Republican came from Phil Bladine, McMinnville editor: "Morse has shot his wad and in the next three weekf McKay will gain. President Eisenhower's visit to Portland will give the Repub licans, the shot in the arm they need. . There is not often an expression of doubt that President Eisenhow er will carry the area. But many persons said they would vote for Eisenhower and Morse. ' The Democrats seem to be working much harder than the Republicans. The Democrats are more fervent, almost like crusad ing for a religion. . I Bdt the Republicans say they are planning to get busy' now. Morse has been effective in cof fee hours among . farm people. There also were reports that Mrs. McKay, speaking to many wom en's groups, has done notable work for her husband. Several communities complain ed of voter apathy. There isn't i that trouble in Astoria, where the town is aroused over a move to end fluoridation of the water. In Benton County, the farmers are Hi ' , TfT" J-v inn miracle ( ir irafrfv J "Roller Combs" 1 I Cut. Hidden Beard Other I HT"m I ' Shavers Miss.
