Newspaper Page Textcoa? U OF ORE30M LI3RAST EUOENE, ORC In The- Day's Aews By FRANK JENKINS This modern world: . A submerged atomic capsule which threatened to CONTAMI NATE THE COLORADO RIV ER CLEAR TO THE CALIFOR NIA BORDER has been recovered in Colorado. An atomic energy commission spokesman says this morning no radiation had leaked through the capsule's lead shield. Question: How did the stuff get in the riv er? . It was quite simple. The "capsule" (with its heavy lead sheathing, it probably weighed a ton I was loaded in a truck. The truck went out of control on a mountain road and plunged into the Colorado. Such is life in the atomic age. Incidentally, that "such is life" phrase dredges up a wisecrack out of the distant past. It went like this: "Such is life in the Far West where one lives and two ctarve to death." It was accompanied by a shrug ef the shoulders, and in its day was quite the last word in Ameri can slang. Well- The West has changed. Nobody starves to death out here any more. Our BIG problem is to get the food surpluses in the ware houses eaten up so they will no longer hang over the agricultural markets like a dark thundercloud. But let's get on with this atomic radiation business. Here's the other tide of it: The army corps of engineers will drop a barrel of IRRADIATED gold and mud to the bottom of San Francisco bay this week. Colo nel John S. Harnett, district engi neer, says the radioactive gold particles will be traced to find out where and how far silt drifts. He adds that about six million cubic yards of silt pour into the bay every year lrom tne Sacra mento and San Joaquin rivers and the army spends about a million dollars a year dredging and dump ing silt. He says the engineers hope to find out where sediment piles up so that eventually tney can use it economically to reclaim land for future use. How will the irradiated gold par ticles help?" They will bo traced with Geiger counters, which will click when they pass over places where the irradiated silt has been deposited. That will provide information as to where the silt deposits are ac cumulating. Hmmmmmm. , Up here in the north, we think that if more, dams were built to store up the water that falls in the winter less silt would be car ried down to San Francisco bay to create siltation problems. At the same time, there would be more water available for use in the dry summer season. im in mi mi mm ii 1 1 1 iiiiiini i ii mi i i i iiiniiiii i in urn nl Huge Posse Combs Rugged Siskiyou Terrain In Hunt For Most Wanted Criminal Price Five Cent-It Pate KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON, MONDAY.

Clouds helped hold down Mon day temperatures in Western Ore gon. In the southern part of the state a storm dumped heavy rain and hail on Medford as moist marine air moved in to cool off inland valleys. About 100 square miles of sage brush and greasewood range land was burned in three fires Sunday afternoon near Hermiston. The fire also destroyed 180 acres of wheat on the Ivan LaHue ranch near Holdman. Two fires started along Highway 395 about 2:15 p. m. Sunday. One was quickly extinguished, but the second burned an area about eight miles square between 3 and 10 p. m. Backfires and a fire ditch were used to control the blaze in record high stands of wheat on the LaHue ranch. A third fire started near the Boardman bombing range about 12 miles west of the town of Ord nance. It burned an area three miles wide to a spot within about two miles of Ordnance. It was thought to be under control about midnight, but jumped Route 30 near Patterson Ferry and burned another 100 acres. Men and equipment from Her miston, Irrigon, Umatilla Ord nance Depot, and Pendleton Grain Growers and Echo fought the fires. A fire along the Union Pa cific right of way was controlled by 33 section hands from Wallula Junction. Temperatures of 110 degrees and Crater Lake Kept Busy ' The season at Crater Lake Na tional Park is starting out unusu ally well, according to Jack Broad- bent, chief ranger at the park. A total of 7,759 cars have entered the park since the first of June when the Annie Spring entrance started keeping a seasonal record. The north entrance from Bend, "via Diamond Lake, opened on June 15 and travel for the last two weekends through that entrance are included in the total figure. Travel over Saturday and Sun day totaled 1,466 cars, Broadbent said. The lodge opened on June 15 and weekend activity has been brisk, according to George Smith, oper ator of the lodge and dining room. Persons planning on staying over night in the park are advised to make advance reservations. Skies were overcast in the .park today and a light rain was fall ing. Precipitation for the 24-hour f eriod ending at 8 a.m. today was .9 inch. a 25-mile-an-hour wind hampered firefighters. Charles S. Wisher, 68, of Klam ath Falls, died in the intense heat near Pendleton. A fellow employe on the Kohler Betts pea ranch three miles east of Adams told police that he saw Wisher lying on the ground, apparently stricken bv the heat. David Perrin said he dragged the man into the shade of a tree and applied artificial respiration but Wisher was dead when tire men arrived. Perrin said the re ported field temperature was 105 degrees. At the other extreme, localized flooding and power outages were reported as a result of heavy thundershowers in the Medford area. ' The Weather Bureau station re ported .68 inch of rain between 5 and 5:30 p. m. and wind in gusts up to 42 miles per hour. Hail siones up to one inch in diameter were reported. The California Oregon Power Co. said it had three mam trans mission lines down from lightning strikes and heavy winds. Radio stations KYJC, KBOY and KMED and television station KBES-TV were knocked off the air. The crash of a truck into a power pole was blamed for part of the outage difficulties. Temperatures were high in the state Sunday despite the cooling air which moved in Sunday after noon and evening. Pendleton had the reported maximum, 103. Grants Pass had a 99 and Medford and Redmond each recorded 97. The Weather Bureau office at Portland forecast cloudy and cool weather generally over the North west for the next several days, but high temperatures continued in eastern Oregon, and fire crews were alerted for continuing trouble.

The fish was four feet long. Its legs were about eight inches long extending from its hind fins. Tre vor and David Jones hooked it on a long line last night from a row boat in Cardigan Bay. in Wales. The fishermen kept it alive in the water-filled bottom of their boat and took it to the local fish expert at Abersoch, Wales. The expert. Evan Hughes, said he had never seen anything like it and that officials of the govern ment fisheries office would come to Abersoch to examine it. The fish has a dark brown body with front fins resembling skate's, a flat head measuring ahout nine inches, slit eyes shaped like half-moons, a tail and rear fins like those of a dogfish and those legs. the white yacht was sighted by a Japanese trawler only 80 miles southeast of Shanghai, it was re ported drifting northwest in a calm sea, halfway between For mosa and the Thespian s destma tion in southern Japan. The report did not alarm Japanese coast guard officials They said the vessel may reach southern Japan in a day or two. Calvert is a former stage magi cian who played the Falcon on television and movie heavy roles, On board with him were his mother-in-law, Mrs. Constance Conrad Lowe; a Mr. and Mrs. Iverson who reportedly own a California ranch; Victor Koehler of New York; Joey Raridan of Hollywood; Creston Ketchum, whose address was not known, and two Chinese. The Thespian sailed from Los Angeles last Aug. 7 for a two-year cruise around the world with stops for Calvert to film TV shows and give performances. Calvert's wife. actress Ann Cornell, had a baby boy in Taipei three weeks ago and flew on to Tokyo Thursday with the child. Mrs. Calvert said although her husband was "somewhat overdue I'm sure it'll all be okay. Preolp. last 24 hours Since Oct. 1 Same period last yetr Normal for period . RESEARCH WALPOLE. Mass.

Landlady Lot ef Dcrftta Of Drckt; MinhUt Stey$ Sea Lion Quits Zoo, Seeks Lake TOLEDO, Ohio UPI) A play ful sea lion which slipped away from a London, Ont., zoo last week, was believed today to have put out into Lake Erie after a casual romp up the Maumee River here. The slippery fellow, which was apparently struck by a sudden yen for far places and slid under a fence at the Canadian loo last Tuesday, was last seen frisking down the Maumee on Friday with patrol boats in futile pursuit. "We are going to make an at tempt to catch him," said Toledo zoo director Phil Skeldon, bu he said there was a possibility the animal had made its way back into Lake Erie. Skeldon said if the sea lion were sighted, zoo officials would try to "shoot" it with an alumi num syringe filled with a tran quilizer drug. A DETROIT (AP) Auto makers and the United Auto Workers went back into contract negotiations to day with both sides acting as if time was on their side. The UAW had talks scheduled with each of the Big Three of the industry Ford, Chrysler and Gen eral Motors. It has been almost a month since the union's contracts with the auto makers expired and workers went to their jobs without a union contract for the first time in more than 15 years. But neither sides acts as if it is pressed for time. Nevertheless, the UAW spent a busy weekend moving among and file members to drum up sup port for strike votes. waiter r. Keuuier, uaw presi dent, has said repeatedly he has no intention of calling a strike. The reason is the tremendous backlog of unsold cars. Car mak ers could go a month or more without making a single car and still feel no pinch. But Rcuther is keeping a sharp eye on the backlog as it dwindles. When the contracts expired last month the industry had about 85,- 000 unsold cars. Now, with produc tion curtailed, it has less than 70,000 Strike votes already have been taken in some plants. Others are scheduled for this week and more are set for July. Reuther s confidence may come from the belief the auto makers will be more fearful of a strike after production starts on 1950 models in late summer. The auto companies appear to believe Reuther will trim his de mands rather than strike. BEIRUT. Lebanon (AP) bomb exploded in a bustling shop ping area of Beirut Monday, kill ing five persons including a worn and her child. ,' ; The bomb went off just opposite the fruit bazaar in downtown Bel rut. An empty $us parked at the curb shielded many shoppers and reduced the casualty toll. The bombing came after several davs of relative calm in the Leb anese caDital win e U.N. Secre tary General Dag Hammarskjold was conferring here with govern ment officials. Hammarskjold left Saturday for Cairo but is to re turn Tuesday. - It was the worst terrorist out break since a crowded tram was bombed several weeks ago. A second bomb exploded shortly afterward on another downtown street. l blew a door from a shop and one person was injured. The bombings apparently were directed at shopkeepers who opened for business in defiance of general strike ordered weeks ago by the rebels fighting to overthrow President Camille Chamoun. The terrorist acts shattered the hopes of many here that the ar rival of U.N. observers meant an easing of tension. $500 to $3,000 for killing a tingle animal. Both the sport and commercial aspects are handled by Sandor Ferenczi, who has directed Mavad. the Hungarian game trading company, for the past 25 years. It was a government owned enterprise from the start. Ferenczi, 69, a small, courtly man, runs the organization from old-fashioned room adorned with fresh flowers and English hunting prints. He serves coffee and vermouth to visitors. He doesn't like to say how much Hungary makes from the sale of snails, crayfish, frogs and game animals, borne idea can be had from the fact that the annual ex port of live hares runs as high as 40,000. They are sold at $14 each, usually in groups of one male and two females. France. Switzerland and Italy are the main buyers. The French, he explains, have to put out some 50,000 hares every spring because of the great numbers that French hunters shoot every fall. Frogs also go to r ranee large quantities. There is only one small area in Hungary where peo ple cat frogs legs, and none where they like snails. About 200 foreign hunters came last year, bringing some $100,000 revenue. This is an important quantity of hard currency for a country like Hungary. Ferenczi says it is not possible to increase it very fast, since the Hungarian government is careful to avoid over-shooting. HAYFORD. Calif. (UPI '-Some 100 laymen, aided by helicopters, today resumed their search on 7.900-foot Dukabella Mountain in Trinity County in a vast manhunt for George Edward Cole, 31. San Francisco police killer and one of the FBI's 10 most wanted men. But as new roads were discov ered, unknown even to long-time residents of the wild area, fears were voiced that the elusive killer might once again have escaped the law. I he area of the search is one of the most rugged in Califor nia. Gas station operators in the area and road block teams were alert ed that Cole might be headed their way. Humboldt County Deputy Sheriff James Boyer chased a man he was sure was Cole in a hectic, high-speed 50-mile chase Sunday, during which Boyer said he hit the suspect s car twice witn re volver shots. Bover said he was tipped Sun day that Cole was at a public dance at Carlotta in Humboldt County. But the deputy arrived on the scene after the suspect had left. As Boyer was driving to nearby Hydesville, he saw a two-tone Pon- tiac sedan, similar to the car re portedly driven by Cole. 'I flashed my light in the driv er's face, and I believe it was Cole," Boyer said. "I tried to hook bumpers with his car, 1 fired at him: I did everying I could to stop him." Boyer lost Cole's trail in the maze of old logging roads that crisscrosses the face of the mountain. Cole has been sought since he shot Policeman Joseph Lacy two years ago in a San Francisco ten derloin holdup. He. was reared in the Eureka area and police have received several reports from old acquaintances who saw him recently. Helicopters from Redding and Fort Lewis, Wash., were on the scene to watch for dust clouds that Cole's car might raise from mountain roads. Men from eight agencies, includ ing the Fish and Game Depart ment, were involved in the search. Skidding Bus Slams Into Station Wagon, One Dead Rebels Claim Celebes Win Train Crash Fatal For 10 ORIZABA. Mexico (AP) At least 10 persons -were killed and 20 injured when a runaway elec tric train crashed into a crowded railway station yesterday at Mai (rata Point, near Orizaba.

Sputnik Rocket Out Of View PORTLAND (AP) Western Oregon Sunday got its last look, at least until the end of the month, at the rocket which shot Russia s Sputnik III into space. Watchers tracked Ihe rocket across the sky for 114 minutes beginning at 3:02 a.m. As usual it appeared as a pulsating light, This is due to the rocket tumbling end over end and reflecting the sun s light only part of the time. The actual satellite was not visi ble. The rocket will not appear over Portland again until June 30. UN Chief Pretiei Peace Plan Witt ttesur Today FONDI. Italy (AP) The Catho lic landlady ho bricked up her Protestant minister tenant said with a sigh today at maybe her offensive had backlired. But Mrs. Gemma Rasile said she still was not finished with the Rev. Umberto Righetti, an evan gelist of the First Church of Christ. The minister rents two second floor rooms from Mrs. Rasile and uses them as his residence and church. The landlady, living on the ground floor, objected to his Protestant flock trooping through her ouarters. Early last month. armed with court permission, she had bricklayers seal up the only door to the preacher s rooms. For three days the Rev.

The minister re sumed services in his rooms. Because of the publicity, Mrs Rasile said, Ihe evangelist now has "quite a few mgre followers man ociore. However. I believe he has in creased his flock with only tem porary followers ho will leave him when the sensation quiets down," she said, adding ruefully: I must admit he had my unwill ing cooperation in surrounding himself with sensation. The landlady insisted she had only given the preacher a tour month reprieve. "He must find a new apartment in that time, she declared "Therefore.

Davis. 72, Eagle Point, died early this morning when a Western Greyhound bus ran into Ihe parked station wagon in which she was seated, three tenths of a mile north of the California line on Highway 97. The fatal crash was the third and last of a series of accidents which took place in rapid sequence on the slippery highway. The first occurred when a south bound pickup truck driven by Wil liam Snancler. 16. San Francisco. went out of control on tne Danxca highway, skidding first to the right, and then to tne leu oanx. Spangler, his mother, Mrs. Wil liam Spangler Sr., 40, and Wil liam Pilz, S, a passenger in the truck, were injured in the accident. The Davis station wagon to which a house trailer was attached was also headed south behind the Span gler vehicle. Lr L.

'The truck and trailer jackknifed, but driver Lawrence Wilburn Thornhill, Tracy, Califor nia, did get through, only clipping the pickup with his trailer. The worst was yet to come, how ever. Mrs. Waltz and her father saw that the bus, driven by Billy Sutphin, 3739 Boardman Avenue, Klamath Falls, which was north bound behind the trailer, was also having difficulty in slowing down. The parked station wagon was in the most vulnerable position, and Mrs. Waltz ran across the highway in a desperate effort to get her mother out of the doomed vehicle. This sho was unable to do. She was struck herself by the oncom ing bus, which crashed into the station wagon. Mrs, Davis was dead on arrival of the Peace Ambulance, which took Mrs. Waltz, Mrs. Spangler and William Spangler to Klamath Vat Icy Hospital.

Morgan, Frosiaeni Eisenhower s special counsel, say- ng: From what 1 hear, Mr. Mor gan is more of a front man than Mr. Adams." Moulder said in an interview he understands Morgan is more ac cessible than Sherman Adams to persons seeking help from the White House. Moulder aia not go into detail. A House subcommittee, ol which Moulder is a member, resumes hearings tomorrow on contacts ad mittedly made by Adams, Eisen hower s top assistant, with two regulatory agencies on behalf of Bernard Goldfine, a millionaire Boston Industrialist. , Adams, the center of a growing political storm, acknowledged ac cepting hotel hospitality and gifts from Goldfine. who he said Is an old friend. Although conceding he was tmnrudent. Adams has demea scckina or getting any lavorea treatment for Goldfine. who was having troubles with the federal Trade Commission and tne securi ties and Exchange Commission. There was no sign Eisenhower has changed his stated intention to retain Adams, whom he has de scribed as a man ol honesty and integrity. But that didn't stem the rising volume of demands that Adams step down. Some ol Ihe strongest demands have come from Repub licans. Counsel Morgan, who has fig ured indirectly in the Adams case, appeared as Adams' legal adviser when Adams appeared before the subcommittee last Tuesday. Adams has informed the sub committee that at his request. Morgan made contact with the SEC to obtain information about a matter involving Goldfine. He said Goldfine complained to him ahout some SEC actions in the case of the East Boston Co., a Goldfine holding firm accused of not filing required financial re ports in 1948-1955. Adams said Morgan ODiainea Ihe information from Thomas C. Meeker, SEC's general counsel, hut asked for no favors. The in- lormation was not passed on to Goldfine, Adams said, and Meeker was not informed of Adams in terest in it.
