WYNNE Every now and then there are a few stories that don't quite get into print, but certainly should. One of these is a bear story that I ran across last weekend. Mr. and Mrs. Robert Friesen, 4446 Shasta Way, had the experi ence ol their lives the previous weekend when they were on their way to Diamond Lake to spend the weekend camping. They knew all about the mooch ing bears of Yellowstone and oth er national parks, but little did they know. . . . About 2 p.m. as they were driving on a road about five miles off the main highway toward Dia mond Lake they spotted a big black bear alongside the road. Mrs. Friesen reports she was driving and her window was down. As they approached her husband started to load the movie camera. He said "I think he's hungry, throw him some bread," and turned back to his camera. Mrs. Friesen turned to get some bread out of the back seat and turned hack to find the hear with both paws on the win' dow and practically nose to nose with her. She screamed. Her husband looked up, gulped and told her to roll the window up. "I can't," she said. The bear's paws were over the window. After a moment, he suggested she roll the car ahead, and as she did. the bear dropped down. suddenly is fighting the proposals in their present form most ol or ganized labor is actively support ing them.

Understand from the word ol good authority, the Oregon State Police, that Medford was. of all things, giving Klamath Falls a boost last week. They were boosting Klamath Gem potatoes. However, it may have been un intentional. They reported that the street signals in Medford were apparently out of order, and some enterpris ing I former Klnmathite perhaps i had hung Klamath Gem potato sacks over the defunct signals. Might be an idea (or the chain ber of commerce to offer potato sacks to other communities for use In emergencies such as this. Another note lhat came across the city desk last week, this one from Carl Jennings, city police man. Carl called In comment that the recent story on the arrest of a man with a loaded gun in a local tavern made him look like a cow ard. The story stated lhat the bar tender observed the man in a rear booth loading a gun. He told Jen nings about it. Jennings saw the man walk to a rear rest room, and he called headquarters lor re inlorccments. There was one. important point not included. Jennings slated. "That was the fact that I was off-duty at the lime, and I wasn't armed." he said. Apologies. Carl, that changes the complexion of the story completely. Herald and News photographer Don Keillor learned that the old phrase "life begins at 40" is more truth than liction. He was assisted In commemorat ing this important milestone in his lite by other members of the stall Friday morning in the tnleleria. (lilts included such be worth over 30 billion dollars and pet attending on- his own right as a part owner of the concern. Stockholding by minors has been growing rapidly in the last lew years, helped since 1!I54 by the spread among the stales of a law called the Uniform "Gifts to Minors Act which enables young sters to own stocks through a cus The New York Stock Exchange says the volume ot securities transactions under this legislation is approaching 50 million dollars a year. This month the 42nd state in the union put into effect such a law. It also has been voled by Alaska, Hawaii and the District of Columbia. How many children receive stock gifts is unknown. But in 1956 a survey of slock ownership by the exchange placed the number of stockholding minors at 200.000 some getting their shares by in heritance, some as gifts and some saving up their own earnings. Under the new state laws an adult can give securities to a child by simply registering the stock in the name of a custodian, usually a parent or relative. The gift is irrevocable and the minor lakes over this property when he be comes 21. The laws permit the customan to buy, sell and reinvest and col lect dividends, provided he exer cises normal standards of pru dence and discretion. growing fast. A goldfish bowl treatment is proposed, requiring full, regular reporting of all fund operations to the government, with penalties lor fraud. The other Senate-passed bijl, now lucked away in House Speak er Sam Rayburn's desk until the wellare fund bill is out of the way, seeks to throttle racketeering by either unions or employers in the labor field. Here again the technique is to require detailed reporting on un ion affairs and funds, along with employer expenditures in labor re lations. The reports would go to the U. S. Labor Department, which would have power to pros ecute violations. Other features of this bill would bar convicted crooks from holding union olfice, require secret-ballot union elections for limited terms, and let union members sue to re cover stolen union funds or prop erly. But it also contains some pro visions that business groups are opposing. Leading the fight arc the two main business organiza tions, the National Assn. of Man ufacturers and the U. S.

Business lavors regulating funds in which unions have a voice, but opposes disclos ing financial operations of funds run solely by employers. It con tends this would give labor other wise secret data which could be useful in bargaining. More than !HI per cent of such lunds are employer-operated. Rut business contends that scandals have developed only in the rel atively few union-run funds. La bor says all funds should he safe guarded to preclude any scandal possibility. Insurance companies, particu larly, are encouraging the busi ness opposition. Many of the wel fare plans consist ol policies pur chased from insurance firms. They resist having to disclose the information. On the second measure, business objects to revealing its labor re lations expenditures. The employer groups also have balked at a provision to make management representatives sub mil the non-Communist oaths which have been required all along from labor leaders. Busi ness claims there's been no evi dence of Communist infiltration ol business management. The unions say what's good lor them is good for their business counterparts. Business seems to prefer no bills at all to the measures in their present lorm. gifts of cash, so that the adult custodian can set up monthly in vestment plans to buy slock for a minor on a regular basis. Or the youngsters can open their own accounts through a custodian. One of the advantages cited are the lax aspects of such gifts. According to the exchange's handbook on Slock Gifts to Minors which describes the model acts and their small variations among the slates, the Internal Revenue Service has ruled that under these laws l he gift is completed on the dale the shares are registered on the books of the corporation in the name of the custodian and quali fies for the annual gift tax exclu sion of $.1.(HH).

Hence there may be adhesions present inside the abominal cav ity from minor inflammation inl the appendix, for example) as well as following surgery. Once formed, adhesions may or may not produce dilficulty. The fibrous tissue has a tendency to contract. Thus, if adhesions have formed around a loop of the in testines they may draw lighter and tighter, preventing the free flow of intestinal contents. This, in turn. can produce symptoms and may require an operation to cut these bands of fibrous tissue and free the parity strangled intestine. What to do for adhesions de pends on where the adhesions are located, what normal structures ol the body they surround and whal this contraction is doing to the organs involved. But adhesions themselves cannot be seen by X rays, so that diagnosis is often difficult. Some people tend to develop ad hesions much more readily than others. This raises a troublesome problem, because in such people new adhesions are likely to form even alter the old ones have been cut or removed. Placing the blame on adhesions for vague, abdominal distress is likely to be difficult. Sometimes il can be done only at operation when the region under suspicion comes under the scrutiny of the surgeon. Adhesions do not lead to cancer, as some have asked me, but neith er can they be cured by any medi cines taken by mouth or given by injection. If A. L.'s Symplons arc severe enough, and nothing else respon sible can be found, it may be necessary to open the abdominal cavity to see if the adhesions can be cut and thereby bring relief. An interesting cnndilion is Ihe subject of today's first inquiry. Q Please explain the cause and treatment of "geographic tongue." -Mrs. D. J. A This is a peculiar kind ol coating of the tongue in which fur ring on the surface is arranged in a manner which looks like a geographic map with ridges and valleys. Its cause is not known but it is not a reflection of any serious disease. It tends to persist, but does not lead to any complications. Treat ment is unsatisfactory, also unnec essary, except for general meas ures aimed at maintaining the health of Ihe tissues inside the mouth. Q W o u I d you say something about the treatment of dermatitis herpetiformis? Mrs'. E. K. A This is a strange skin disease which tends to burn itself out in 10 or 20 years. Some of the sulfa drugs have been used with consid erable success. Cortisone, or ils relatives, have also had some re cent favor and other preparations are sometimes used. Q Would you consider lhat slight bleeding in the area from which a tonsil has been removed lasting for about a year could be evidence of cancer? M. E. A II is possible but unlikely However, such a symptom should never be negleclcd. The area should be carefully examined and corrective measures undertaken. Q What is the highest temper ature which anyone has been known to have had and survived.' Mrs. M. D. A A number of high tempera- lure readings have been record ed. One was in a woman of 42. vvilh erysipelas, whose tempera ture many times registered be tween 1118 and 111 degrees. This was in 1R7!I. A patient with rheu matic (ever was reported, whose temperature reached a little over 111 degrees. There are a number o( other records o( a similar na ture, but most o( them are open to question. Part of the answer to Ihe ques tion is not how high the body temperature has gone, but also how long it has slaved there. Survival lollowing exceedingly high temper atures lor a long period of lime is not possible. ;lllOf By United Press lnternnlion.il WASHINGTON - Housi Demo cratic leader John W.

She filed for divorce Friday af ter the shaky star of local tele vision accused her o( trying to kill him with a pair of scissors dur ing an argument about "other" women. Oscar's screams were heard blocks away in their sedate, ex pensive neighborhood and brought Beverly Hills police to "rescue" a badly shaken Levant.

"I told him he was not going to come home but lhat he could get a moving. van. hack it up to the house and take everything that's his." Levant, whose forte is sharp tongued comment on the current scene, told his television audience he had run out of laundry since moving in with friends. "Of course, he can have it," Mrs. Levant promised. "He'll have lo come aod get it. If he phoned. I suppose I'd talk to him I think I would.
