Police Report
Knife Fight
Police said today two women
cut another woman ahout the face
and neck with a pocketknife last
night in a parked car near the
carnival grounds on South Sixth
Street.
The victim, identified as Phyl
lis Hill of Chiloquin, managed to
escape her female attackers and
was taken to the hospital in a
car by "friends."
However, before doctors could
attend to her, she fled the hospi
tal, attendants reported. The
officers located the victim a short
distance away.
They returned her to the hospi
tal where she was treated for a
three-inch gash on the right cheek
another on the left side of the
neck, and bruises about the eyes
and mouth.
So far. the Hill woman has filed
no complaint against the aggres
sors and no arrests have been
made.
Officers said the argument in
the car, parked in the Safeway
South Sixth lot, was over the af
fections of a man.
The quarrel got started on the
carnival grounds but officers put
the principals off the grounds be
fore violence broke out, they re
ported.
One of the women reportedly
wielded the pocketknife while the
other was armed with a souvenir
tomahawk obtained at the carni
val. There were four men com
panions in the car or immediate
vicinity at the time, it was re
ported.
Editors Note: One hundred
years ago today the theory of
evolution first burst on the
scientiiic world. This year sci
entists of both East and West
will mark the centennial as a
great milestone in the advance
of human knowledge. In the fol

son, himself a famoius theoreti

tion may drive the world back

v CAMBRIDGE, Eng. (UPI) It
was on the night of July 1, 1858,
that tho theory of evolution by

why and how the changes had
come about, and in 1858 most
leading biologists believed in the
fixity of species of animals and
plants.
The olher main point of the new
theory was that it provided a
mechanism to explain the changes.
This was natural selection, the in
tense competition of all living
things in the struggle for life
which was continually wiping out
the less efficient members of any
kind bf animal and leaving the
stage for those belter equipped to
survive.
It was this part of the theory

hive, could have been gradually
developed.

Nickerson
Reinstated
WASHINGTON (AP)-Col. John
C. Nickerson is being restored to
a position of command authority
but away from the Army mis

Nickerson, a decorated veteran
of World War II, was convicted
a year ago of leaking technically
secret information in an effort to
win support for the Army in a
rivalry with the Air Force over
missiles.
The colonel, then in a major
post at the Army Ballistic Missile
Agency at Huntsvillc, Ala., was
sentenced by a court-martial to
pay a $1,500 fine and to forfeit
command authority for one year.
The Army said yesterday Nick
erson will take over next Tuesday
as ordnance officer of its Carib
bean command with headquarters
in the Panama Canal Zone. At the
same time, Nickerson will get
back full security clearance which

alter Lady Luck ran out on gam
bler Tony Corncro.
Cornero, famous for his gamb
ling boat exploits off the coast of
Los Angeles, personally master
minded creation of the Stardust,
the largest resort hotel in Nevada.
When he died of a heart attack
July 31, 1955, the hotel was 70 per
cent completed and more than $5
million had been spent on
construction.
The big spending habits of gam
bler Cornero and the internal
squabbles of Stardust Corporation
stockholders after he died led to a
tieup of funds in federal bankrupt
cy court.
After months of proposals and
counter - propisals, U. S. District
.luge John R. Ross approved sale
of the Stardust to Mrs. Rella Fac
tor, wife of John (Jake the Bar
ber) Factor, brother of Hollywood
cosmetics maker Max Factor.
Mrs. Factor's offer was for

and monthly payments of $75,00
starting July 19.

the people of the area in the furth

During the past 12 months, U.S.

lt was not enough lo look at
the favorable things, but it was
even more unnecessary to consid

if anybody could cile one single
case which could not possibly
have come about by an accumu

have killed the whole theory.
In those 20 years he patiently

some time more he would have
gone on doing so belore writing
il all up. when he received a
quite unexpected letter. This was
from Wallace who had been
working at the natural hislory of
.LII.I..1 I'UI lll-ll, Hll IIIUll- III
a paper for publication which was
lo all intents exactly the sanse
theory as the one he had been
working on himself.
This situation was met by their
publishing their papers together

time, explaining what had happened.
nd at the end of 1858 the nresi- viction and assignment to a minor

This was the start of the the
ory, but after "The Origin of the
Species" appeared things became
very different. Soon afterwards
the whole subject became an
acute subject of controversy with
attacks on the theory for the
most part from laymen and from
the churches, while most scien
tists soon grew into accepting it.
As time went on. with the in
creased number of people now
considering the subject, new points
or difficulty began to emerge. No
body really doubted the fact of in
heritance but nobody knew what
s laws were, and all suggestions
about them seemed to be inade
quate. But about the start of this
century the matter was revolu
tionized by what may be described
as the discovery of a discovery.
Forty years earlier Mendel had
discovered a beautifully simple
law governing biological inheri
tance, but. though he did publish
it, this discovery was for long
overlooked. After that, when it
had been rediscovered, it took a
good many years to get it syste
matized, but it explained the bas
ic fact that was needed, the fact
that each new variation of charac
ter would not. so to speak, be im
mediately smudged out by mixing
it back with the characters of the
unvaried members of the race.
lt took many years to clear up
even the outline of these matters,
and still longer, with the help of
mathematics, to be sure Ihey were
adequate to explain the detailed
characteristics of the evolution of
life. But now nobody seriously
doubts the validity of the whole
theory, and the adequacy of Men
del's law to explain at any rate
nearly everything about inheri
tance. lt is natural to ask then what
are the prospects for the future?
Nobody can ever give a clear an
swer to this sort of question.
From the nature of things it con
cerns matters we do not yet
know, in the meanwhile there is
plenty of important work going on,
and it is likely to go on for a
long time. Among other matters
it concerns such things as inheri
tance among elementary forms of
ife like bacteria, and also diffi
cult questions connected wilh the
qualities of the complicated chem
ical substances in animals ad
plants, and the iicritac of
these substances.
Finally there ic the re-tim of

degree of prosperity that to all

Origin Of Bear
Perplexing To
Coast Citizens
NEWPORT, 6re. (AP) Local
residents had a 600-pound polar
hear carcass on their beach Tues
day and were wondering about its
origin.
The dead bear probably washed
ashore sometime last weekend,
along with the carcass of a cub.
The tide later carried the cub
back to sea, but the larger bear
remained on the sadn, attracting
spectators.-
Jack Marks, director of the
Portland Zoo, speculated that the
hears were swept out to sea in a
storm, probably on an ice cake
that melted when it reached
warmer waters. The the animals
probably drowned and were car
ried by currents to the Oregon
shore.
Polar bears are native to the
Bering Sea area, more than 2,000
miles from the Oregon coast.
"How far south does an iceberg
flow?" Marks asked when told of
the incident. "This is one for the
oceanograDhers."
Marks said he doubled that the
bears ever had been in captivity.
The carcasses first were noticed
Sunday by a small boy. He re
ported his discovery but no one
paid any attention until Monday.
when a motel owner. Mrs. Flora
Lauritscn, saw the hears on the
beach near her motel.
