Hoegh, chief of the new Office of Defense and Civilian Mobiliza tion. The 50-ycar-old former Iowa governor was named by President Eisenhower Tuesday to the $25,-COO-a-year combined agency job. Since he was named civil de fense administrator a year ago, this energetic Midwesterner has carried to Washington his hawk like habit of heading straight for target. Actually, Hoegh's name (pro nounced "Hoyg") means hawk in Danish, His adversaries will tell you the name fits. Hoegh likes a good scrap. This trait has endeared him to his friends. He gives and receives loyalties with singular intensity. During World War 11. Gen. Ter ry Allen made special mention of Hoegh's "complete" loyalty." Hoegh was operations officer of Allen s famed 104th iTimberwolO Infantry Division. He received three battlefield decorations. After the war he wrote the division his tory, "Timberwolf Tracks." As a boy, Hoegh shined shoes in tne Danish community of Elk horn, Iowa, where he was born "a nickle for oxfords, a dime for high shoes with mud on them, Not long out of the University of Iowa, where he studied law, he was elected to the stale legislature at the age of 28. After three terms came four years of war duty, a stretch of legal practice in inanton, Iowa, and then ap- point ment as state attorney gen eral. In this job the young lawyer with the close-cropped hair be came widely known. ' In 1954 Hoegh was elected gov- ernor. He was an aggressive ad ministrator and tangled several times with his Republican legisla tive majorities. Some in the party did not weep when he was defeat ed in 1956. None, however, chal lenged his integrity. Hoegh was a pre-convention Ike man in 19o2. He had a key role in landing eight pro Eisenhower votes from among Iowa's 10 dele gates at large. When he left the statchouse in early 1957, Hoegh said he wasn't interested in a federal job. He ac- cepted the civil defense post last July, however, and old-timers in the federal Civil Defense Adminis tration say he has been a real sparkplug. In less than a year Hoegh has started a program aimed at pro viding a million radiological mon itors within a year, promulgated a national shelter policy, and has drawn up a national civil defense plan to be announced if Congress provides the prerequisites. Hoegh, his attractive wife Mary Louise, and their two daughters, Kristin, 14, and Janis, 9, live in a new colonial four-bedroom house in Bethesda, Md. Before they left Chariton they put many of their household pos sessions up for auction. Janis' electric train was on the block. Then Hoegh and Janis had a little talk. Hoegh bid it in for $.14.

Wil-i liam F. Knowland comes to town today on a political mission that appeared doomed in advance. The Republican candidate for governor, flying here to address the American Legion state con-' vention, arranged to meet with Gov. Goodwin J. Knight for the first time since the Democratic tinged California primary. His announced purpose: To try and unite California Republicans for the November election campaign. Knight, Republican nominee for Knowland's Senate seat, has pretty well ruled out any tie-up with the senator whose candidacy for the state job prompted Knight to give up his bid for reelection. The governor told newsmen yesterday he's going to stand on his June 12 declaration. That statement bespoke his intention to campaign on his own, independent of the GOP ticket. It also cited their difference on a controversial labor issue a point that Knight elaborated on at length at yesterday s news con ference. Knowland said in Washington that in his meeting with Knight he would try to get an area of agreement on "right-to-work" and other labor legislation which all GOP nominees could accept. But Knight, looking for labor support in his own campaign said: t in I '. . tin. mmj I C. W. CHAMPLIN, right, accepts the gavel as president of the Siskiyou 'County Peace Officers Association from George Banieh, left, Siskiyou County undenheriff, installing officer and a past president. Installation of officers was held re cently at the Fawn Club, Weed. Gaynor Photo Siskiyou County Policemen Hold Installation Dinner "My position is well known. It hasn't changed and it won't change. I'm opposed to the 'right- to-work proposal. "If the people of the state want right to work' they will have an opportunity to vote on the matter at the November election. He said California has enjoyed great prosperity and industrial peace without such a law. Knowland has endorsed the in itiative on the November ballot which would outlaw the union shop in California. Knight noted that all other Republican candi dates oppose the measure. The governor said he is all tor "full democracy in unions" and that there can be general Repub lican agreement on that. Know land told a meeting of campaign workers in San Jose two weeks ago that he would not back down on the open-shop issue. Atty. Gen. Edmund G. Brown Knowland's Democratic rival for the governorship, offered his op ponent some advice at a news conference yesterday. He sug gested that Knowland adopt the labor plank in the 1956 Republican state platform. Brown - called attention to the plank advocating "the right to establish 'union shop' contracts by agreement with management." He commented: "The senator repudiated it and I suggest he get back with his party on that issue. WEED Ceremonies of installa tion for officers of the Siskiyou County Peace Officers Association was witnessed by nearly 70 mem bers and guests attending the recent meeting held as a dinner dance event at the Fawn Club at Weed. C. W. Champlin, Dunsmuir, ac cepted the gavel as president of the association from George Ban ich, Siskiyou County undersheriff and a past president of the asso ciation. . Champlin, special agent for Southern Pacific Railway Com pany, has served since December as acting president to fill the va cancy caused by the transfer of R. 0.

The tomatoes are ready to hand by virtue of the Royal Opera House's location at Covent Gar den, London's busy fruit, vege table and flower market. The only reason they are not hurled more often at unpopular Italian tenors is that the Bow Street police court is also direct ly opposite the opera house This spring as tne noyai upera House celebrates its 100th birth day, Londoners are reminded once more of the queer world which has resulted from this association of prima donnas, cops and vege table hucksters. It is a world dominated by the exotic fragrance of garlic mixed with greasepaint and gardenias It is. a world in which the over lure of Figaro may suddenly be punctuated by the snarl of a po lice siren, as the paddy wagon pulls up in front of the Bow Street courthouse; in which the highly - paid baritone may be howled down by the banana ven dor outside. Opera singers, arriving for early morning rehearsals, find them selves jostled by pimps and prosti tutes, beggars and petty thieves, who line the sidewalk waiting for their cases to be called at the Dolice court opposite. Ballerinas draw long, low wolf whistles from the Cockney mar ket porters as the girls hurry past bound for the stage door and the enchanted groves of "Swan Lake And opera patrons, impeccable in evening dress, pick their way among cabbage stalls for an eve ning of Wagner. The Covent Garden opera has other claims to fame. It was here beneath its porticoes that Eliza Colville Indians Visiting Basin A delegation of Colville Indians from the state of Washington is currently visiting Klamath Tribe officials on the local reservation, studying the Klamath termination picture. Jesse L. Kirk Sr., Klamath Council vice president, said the visitors are interested in profit ing from our mistakes here." The Colvilles, headed by Louis Wapato, chairman of the tribal council, are making a five-year study of how best to terminate their reservation. Their termination act, not yet enacted, will take into considera tion the study prepared by tribal members themselves. Kirk said the Colvilles are "trying to avoid the pitfalls we Klamaths ran into here." Make Friends, Not Enemies Says South Carolina Chief Doolittle. the little Cockney flower- girl of "My Fair Lady," met her Prof. Higgins. Inside the opera house, however. one is far removed from the world of cabbages and Cockneys. Here alt is crimson and gilt elegance. The grand staircase hung with crystal chandeliers, the horseshoe iers. the footmen with their pow-j dered wigs, are just as they were century ago, when the opera house first opened. The cipher nf Queen Elizabeth II is embroidered in gold on the drop curtains as a reminder that Covent Garden enjoys royal patronage. It was here at Lovent oarden that Khrushchev and Bulganin were entertained as a highlight of their visit to Britain a few vears ago. Before them, Marshal Tito was an honored guest at a gala performance. Londoners like show oil tneir min-victorian opera house. U has oeen a memoraoie cen tury for Covent Garden, for it was from its stage that such singers as Melba. Chaliapin. Caruso, let- azzim and bupervia reached the heights of their world fame. Ade- lina Patti reigned as virtual queen at Covent Garden for 25 years. and before her there was the great prima donna. Giulia Grisi. Actually, the present Royal op era House is the third to stand on the same site, the original hav ing opened in 1732 with Con- greve's play, "The Way of the World." The first Covent Garden theater was primarily a home of drama. In 1766 the first strike at Covent Garden occurred, when ballet danc ers refused to wear worsted stock ings instead of the accustomed silk. The historic theater burned down in 1808 when a faulty stove DiDe caught fire. The second Covent Garden opened a year later with Mrs. Siddons hypnotizing audiences as Lady Macbeth, and in 1811 the opera house added to its claims the first appearance of an ele phant on any stage, the pachy derm starring in a Christmas pantomime. But Covent Garden now began to devote itself almost exclusively to opera, with the management commissioning operas from such composers as Carl Maria von weo- er. iVon Weber was paid the princely sum of $1,500 for "Ober on" which he wrote specially for Covent Garden.) On March 5. 1656. the second Covent Garden theater burned to the ground, after a rowdy, all- ight masked ball. Two years later the present opera house was com pleted.

Both "secrets" found their way into pictures and print from coast to coast. If it had been up to him the day he turned 81 last week would have passed quietly witnout men tion. But Coburn had underesti mated the 20th Century-Fox pub licity people. It started at lunch- time in the studio commissary. "So you know about it, do you?" Coburn growled at the waitress who brought him a mound oi pine aoDle sherbert crowned with s sinele Dink candle. "Well, thank you very much. I thought I might be able to keep it quiet. Just then the studio publicity lariv SDoke un. "You know, Mr. Coburn told me that the secret of staying young at his age is to 'find the work you like, work like the dev il at it, and keep dancing. Coburn appeared to wince a lit tie. "I've put that in his biography," she added, patting a nine-page, single-? paced typed manuscript just off the mimeograpn macnine "Let me take a look at that.' Coburn said and then began leaf tne through the fact sheets which in listing his credits and the names of his leading ladies, di rectors and co-stars sounds like a who s who of the movie indus try. The woman publicist excused herself and left the table for a minute, and Coburn's tone be came confidential. "I don't know why they're al ways asking me how I stay so "voung." " he said in a low voice. "'I don't know what to tell them. I don't know. That's just the way I am!"

His favorite role always is "the one I'm working on," he won't do live TV because It s brutal you open and close the same night," and he's selective in the parts he'll play. The story s the thing. he said. 'Without it you're a dead duck." He had no retirement plans. (Retire? What for?") and he likes to travel ("But I don t like to travel just for travel's sake." Coburn broke off his conversa tion abruptly, finished the last of the sherbet, and left for the set of "The Remarkable Mr. Penny- packer" in which he is co-starred with Clifton Webb and Dorothy McGuirc. The publicity woman watched him leave and as soon as he was out of earshot conlidcd that be- lore the day was over it would be virtually impossible for Co burn to keep his age a secret.

He's a 19-year old Apache Indian sworn in here yesterday. He s from White River, Ariz. CHARLESTON, S. C. (AP) - Youthful, mellow-voiced Ernest F. Hollings, South Carolina's next governor, carries his undefeated political career as easily as he does his husky 6-foot-2 frame. The genial lawyer with the square-jawed face has been a win ner almost all his 36 years. He s making a full career of public service, a campaign point that homed him win. It has always been my idea ihat a man should make friends, not enemies," the Charleston law yer says of his political philoso phy. It has carried mm tar in a hurry. Hollins. though a strong defend er of the state's laws guarding traditional segregation, is a cham pion of equal rights for Negroes. He has voted to nave Negroes on boards of control in his home county. He was the State House of Rep resentatives floor leader in 1951 in enacting the stale s multimillion- dollar program to equalize Negro schools with those of whites. It has been a frequent habit of South Carolinians to send their governors self-succession is not allowed to the U. S. Senate. Fritz, a nickname indicative ot his German ancestry, is definitely a voung man on the go, with no ceding in sight. A poised and eloquent piatiorm speaker, he prefers to go at it ad lib. but can deliver a prepared speech as though he is making it up as he speaKS. He nas masucreu the television art of speaking to each viewer rather than to an un seen audience. Both men ar.d women find him attractive. He knows how to lis ten as well as talk. When he shakes hands,- he gives the im pression Ihat shaking your hand is a great honor for him. Hollings won national recogni tion in 1954 as one of the Junior Chamber of Commerce Young Men of the Year. That was the year he was elected lieutenant governor after a sparkling six- year career in the Stale Legisla ture. Hollings was graduated with honors at The Citadel, the state military college. He went from college into 33 months of North African and European Army serv ice starting in 1942. It is charac teristic that he never has stressed his military -record in his political campaigns. He studied law at the Univer sity of South Carolina after the war, practiced with an uncle for a time, then set up his own of fice. In 1946 he married Pat Salley of Columbia. The two met at a col lege dance at The Citadel years before. Their early marriage was marred by tragedy when their third child strangled to death in a crib. At the time they had a son, Michael, now 7, and a daugh ter, Helen Hayne. now 5. Since then they have had another daugh ter, Patricia Salley, 1.
