.TUESDAY. MAY 20. 1958 HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON PAGE FIVE Truilo Jr. Says He Is In Love With Actress Novak HOLLYWOOD un Lt. Gen. Rafael Trujillo Jr. says he is in love with actress Kim Novak. The head ol the Dominican Re public's air force broke his long silence on his personal life last night on a television program. He said of Kim: "She's a nice girl. She's very sincere. And I like the way she is." When interviewer Paul V. Coates Knight Seeks Tax Defeat SACRAMENTO I Gov. Knight says he is opposed to an initiative measure which would repeal the property tax exemption of non profit private and parochial schools. The governor, in a statement yesterday, said Prop. 16 on the November ballot is "discrimina tory in effect and an unecessary 'tax burden on all Lalitornians. He said the nonprofit schools in California educate 340.000 pupils each year who would cost the tax payers an additional 120 million ' dollars if they were placed in public schools. The exemption is . less than two million dollars, he -said. Knight said: "If we in any way limited these schools' functions and forced the state to undertake the education . of an additional third of a million students, we would be doing our- selves a disservice and displaying unwise economic judgment. Gravedigger Still Waiting WALPOLE ST.ANDREW. Eng land Wl For two long decades Walter Hammond, gravedigger ' and custodian of the New Ceme tery, has been waiting patiently for his first customer. ' The cemetery was laid out m ' this Cambridgeshire village 'pop- ulation now 807) in 1938. There seemed to be a need. For years residents had been getting them- selves buried in the jampacked churchyards of neighboring par ishes. The Rural Council erected i fancy fence with wrought iron "gates around the acre of ground put Walter in to run the show, and sat back to await business. They, and Walter, are still waiting. Each day Walter tramps the lonely road to his cemetery, opens the wrought iron gates, and does -a little caretaking. On the side he grows a truck garden in the spaces where the graves ought to be. In desperation the Council ad vertised in the newspapers last February that new cemetery now available for burials." No . response. "Maybe," said Council Clerk Ronald Dixon, "people insist on being buried where their parents and grandparents are buried. We have done all we can. It's a lovely little cemetery." , Walter, sadly weeding his on ions, radishes and lettuces, said he sometimes despairs of ever making a start on his life's work. "You know," he said, "I think once one person is buried here others will follow. "The trouble is. nobody seems to want to be first. asked him If he was in love with her, the uniformed, berihboned eneral paused, then said: "Yes." He said that he and his wife Octavia formally separated last December, and that he started divorce proceedings in March. He said that Octavia will retain cus tody of their six children. Trujillo said the I'nited States had never sent monev to his coun try, where his father is the strong man. U.S. aid has been in the form of materials, he said. "I like to spend money," he said. "And I spend my own money." He said it came from sugar refineries and ranches owned by his family. Trujillo, 28. said he met Miss Novak, 24, at a Hollywood dinner party. The expensive car he gave her was "a surprise," he said. He said the costly gifts he gave Zsa .sa Gabor were just presents "to an old friend." In fact, he said he had given cars to three other friends his secretary, an aide, and a countryman who was a fel low student at the U.S. Army Command and General Staff School at Ft. Leavenworth, Kan. Trujillo said he would leave for Ft. Leavenworth today. He said he would return to the Dominican Republic in July probably from Los Angeles, and probably in a yacht. Asked Coates: "Will this be a honeymoon trip?" Replied Trujillo: "You never can tell." Trujillo said he was introduced to Zsa Zsa four years ago by a polo-playing pal from the island republic, Porfirio Rubirosa. He said that since his name hit the headlines from Hollywood he had received a cable from Rubirosa, who is in Paris. He said it read My God, you have replaced me."

Baker .lr. was protested without avail by U.S. Ambassador Llewellyn Thompson. A spokesman was asked whether Soviet diplomat had been or dered out of the United States in reciprocity. He replied. "No, not up to this point." Baker was accused by the So iet Foreign Ministry of having 'systematically violated the norms of behavior for diplomatic representatives." Baker, on leave in London with his wife and infant child, denied the accusation.

Baker was the only U.S. diplo mat in Moscow ever permitted to attend regular classes at Moscow University, the State Department aid. He, had been attending class 's in Russian medical history. Both Senate Republican leader William F. Knnwliind iCalif) and Sen. Mike Mansfield (Monti, as- istant Democratic floor leader. criticized the Soviet action.
