(AP)-An Air Force weather reconnaissance plane spun in from two miles high late yesterday and scattered wreckage over a two-mile area A spokesman from Laughlin Air Force Base, Del Rio, Tex., where the plane was based, said police misinterpreted orders and this led to a cloak of secrecy be ing thrown over the crash. The pilot was Capt. Alfred V. Chapin Jr., 28, San Angelo, Tex. The Laughlin spokesman said the U2 jet was on a routine weath er reconnaissance flight when it crashed. He said it carried clas sified instruments, but there was nothing specially secret about it The spokesman said police were asked to aid the pilot if he were still alive, and if not, to "secure the area." meaning not to touch the wreckage. However, the military immedi atcly cordoned off roads leading to the crash site and spectators were kept five miles from the wreckage on orders from the 2nd Air Command at Shreveport, La. Laughlin said the pilot was found dead in the cockpit. The single-engine jet crashed 18 miles south and 14 miles west of here in the Caprock Country a high bluff rising from the plains. The U2 cruises at 55,000 feet checking weather conditions and fallout from radioactive explo sions, the Air Force said. Only 24 hours earlier, another U2 crashed about 110 miles cast of here near Amarillo, Tex., kill ing Squadron Leader C. 11. Walk er, a Royal Air Force exchange pilot.

MERCER West Coast Life Population Up In County , Klamath County has had a popu lation increase of 16 per cent since 1950, according to figures sent by the county court yesterday to the State Board of Census in Portland, The board must decide to certify the figures before the gain can be officially recognized by the state. Population figures are the basis lor certain allotments of monies from the state to counties, such as highway funds. The figures sent in claim a coun ty population of 50.562 on July 1, 1958, This' compares with 48.052 locally estimated on July 1, 19.i7, and 42.150 on July 1, 19M, per an actual census. R. Frank Tucker, commerce chamber manager, who helped supply employment, school and other data on which the figures are based, said Klamath Falls city population was 20.681 on July 1. This compares with local estimates of 19,400 for last year and 15,875 (actual census) for 1950. The gain for the city since 1950, using these figures, is 23 per cent. Public school enrollments in all of Klamath County have risen an estimated 3.2 per cent from the 1956-57 to 11157-58 school year, the figures sent to Portland show. Data used in support of the esti mates shows a gain of 526 jobs here since July 1, 1957. These have come from construction of A i r Force housing now under way, 350 jobs; air base contracts, 40 jobs; Navy construction, l.i0 jobs; the new Klamath Hardwoods. Inc., plant, 160 jobs; and Morrison -Knudsen Klamath River dam con struction, 50 jobs. The job computation also lakes into account that 224 jobs were eliminated with completion of the new Johns - Manville softboard plant. The state board's estimates of Klamath population in the past have tended to be lower than the one submitted locally and this may be true again this year. The board has the final say on approving pop ulation ligures lor olticial pur poses. , Graduation Fete Plans Announced DUNSMUIR A graduation par ty for the Tuesday night square dance class conducted by Howard and Ruth Jones will be held Fri day evening at Ihe Abrams Lake lodge.
