PAGE TWO HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON MONDAY, AUGUST 4. 1958 TIZZY "Herbie brought me horns Drug Makers Price Fixing WASHINGTON (AP)-Two ma jor drug manufacturers say they will fight government charges that they conspired to fix the prices of wonder drugs. Others named1 with them also deny the allegations. The denials came after the Fed eral Trade Commission announced Saturday the filing of complaints against six firms which make a group of antibiotics called tetra cyclines. The FTC said the companies have an absolute monopoly in sale of the tetracyclines, which include aureomycin, terramycin and ach romycin. These drugs, developed within the past decade, attack a wide range of disease-breeding microbes. The agency said the tetra cyclines are the biggest selling antibiotics. One estimate men tioned by the commission said 750 million dollars was spent on won der drugs last year. Charges of fixing wander drug prices at arbitary and noncompe titive levels were filed against these firms: Chas Pfizer & Co., American Cyanamid Co., Bristol-Myers Co., and Olin Mathieson Chemical Corp.. all of New York City; Bris tol Laboratories Inc., hyracuse, N. Y.; and the Upjohn Co., Kala mazoo, Mich. Bristol-Myers and Bristol Lab oratories operate under one man agement. Cyanamid's drugs are made by its Lederle Laboratories. Olin Mathieson produces drugs through its E. R. Squibb & Sons Division. Frederic N. Schwartz, president of Bristol-Myers, said the FTC charges are baseless. He promised to tight them "with all the re .'.'Mr DOORS CPCN 6:30 P. M. LAST 2 DAYS! SOPHIA LOREN ANTHONY PERKINS , BURL IVES 2nd MATURE SOORa CPCN 6l.in p.

Gifford Upjohn, presi dent of Upjohn, said officials of his company are convinced the charges are completely unfound ed. He too promised a battle to "prove conclusively that these charges are untrue. W. G. Malcolm, Cyanamid pres ident, said his firm has not en gaged in any price fixing or em ployed any unfair or deceptive business practices. John E. McKeen, president of Pfizer, said, "Pfizer has never en gaged in a conspiracy, never mis used its patents, never fixed prices, and wields no monopolis tic powers." The FTC's civil action is aimed at requiring the drug companies to halt the alleged price tixing. The firms are given 30 days to file formal answers to the com plaint. The commission tentative ly set a hearing for Oct. 1 before an examiner in New York City. In its report, the FTC said there had been repeated price cuts in many of the early antibiotics, but that comparable price decreases among the newer wonder drugs stopped In 1951, World Ending Meeting Told NEW YORK (AP)-The final session of the Jehovah's Witnesses eight-day international assembly drew more than a quarter-million persons to Yankee Stadium and the Polo Grounds yesterday. It reportedly was the largest convention gathering in this city's history. The witnesses packed the two ball parks and thousands stood outside. They heard, once again, the central theme of the convention: present-day civilization is nearing an end. "Wo know not the day or the hour, but the world's end is near," said Nathan H. Knorr, president of the Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society, and thousands of witnesses applauded. The society is the legal name of the witness movement. A total of 4,784 observers as signed to the task counted the crowd and said 253,922 persons were in attendance. Knorr said the end of the pres ent world is "nothing over which to be sorry because a new world of new heavens and a new earth is to begin after this old world ends in Armageddon." Central to the Witnesses' belief is that the struggle between good iind evil will end with a final battle called Armageddon. Nothing is more evidence, said Knorr. "Than Uie government of the earth by man and by the many gods of man has failed." He predicted the United Nations will have no more success in stav ing off a war than did its prede cessor, the "blasphemous, abomi nable" League of Nations. Also, once again, he said Prot estant and Roman Catholic lead ers were selling out to "govern ment by men" when only trust in God will save the world. OPEN DAILY 7IOO P.

Then there is Jean Carroll. In fact, the last time Miss Car roll, a lady clown, saw a psychia trist, it was to find out what kind of an insecticide he was using on his peach trees. Miss Carroll, in case you haven't caught her on the Ed Sullivan Show from time to time or last week on the Bob Crosby Show, is not only a comedienne, but one of the standup variety. That means she just gets up on her leet and makes people laugh "It s tough, she admits. TV comes into your living room and joins you. And nobody walks around your living room with a violin tucked under his arm. plays a few notes and stops to tell a few jokes. That's fine for theater stages and night clubs, but there s no point of identifica tion in your home." Jean, however, has been lucky because she usually works around such homely subjects as buying a dress or fur coat from a high- pressure saleswoman, shopping at a supermarket, going to a f TA meeting all familiar subjects to the stay-at-homes and therefore highly identifiable. Miss Carroll, however, has more going for her than a happy for mat: she doesn't want to be the star on her very own weekly show, No, says Jean firmly, "I like to be a guest I've been on the Sullivan Show more, 1 guess. than almost any other comedi enne. I'm not looking for stardom on televiiion, because that's the kind of thing that makes you slave.

VPI Mrs. Darlene Palmer, a pretty 21-year- old mother was being held here today on an open charge In con nection with the death of her in fant daughter who was found bur ied in an 18-inch deep grave be neath the back porch of the Pal mer home Sunday. Mrs. Palmer admitted to Gravs Harbor County Sheriff Richard Simmons and her husband Ed ward. 19. that she buried the ba by. Since Wednesday she had maintained that her 6'j-month-old daughter, Joyce, was taken from her home by an unknown assailant. A search party, aided by blood hounds found the baby beneath the porch. The discovery climaxed four days of combing the brush and woods in this area in an at tempt to find the child. During the questioning by F.B.I, agents and Simmons, .Mrs. Pal mer said an assailant knocked her unconscious in the back yard of her home and took the child. She showed bruises on her head and right arm where she said she was struck by the assailant. Mrs. Palmer's husband was being held as a material witness.

Middle East Overshadows Algerian War ALGIERS (UPI)-France'a "for gotten war" in Algeria grinds on grimly, practically ignored by the world whose attenion is held cap tive by summit diplomacy and the Middle bast crisis. But today, as they have almost every day since Nov. 1. 1954. when Algerian nationalism explod ed into organized armed revolt, French patrols fanned out across the wild regions they now call "the rotten zones." In these areas (there are reoort- ed to be five scattered across Al geria and covering hundreds of square miles of territory) the French units know that rebel in fluence is strong, surrounding them like a silent sea.1 In these zones shadowy guerrilla bands are hidden, poised to strike savagely, then melt back into the wilderness. The week of July 27. as It has almost very week for more than 43 months, the French Supreme Command in Algiers issued its of ficial count of rebels killed throughout the territory for the past seven days. "From July 21 to 27," the com munique read, "479 rebels were killed and 164 captured in Alge ria, ine previous week s totals were: 498 killed, 184 prisoners. For the past two years the rebel dead announced by the French week have varied around the pres ent figure. Last summer the count often rose to more than 1.000 men wiped out, at other times it has fallen to about 300. But never before, the French say, has the number of prisoners taken been so high, week in, week out. They claim this means the reb els are running low on fighting manpower, that they are recruit ing mostly battle-shy. teen - age youtns wno are easily demoral ized. and that the appeals Gen. Charles de Gaulle has launched to all Algerians are heard in the reb el ranks. But leaders of the main rebel organization, called FLN, scoff at this as "French propaganda." They say 90 per cent of Algeria's Moslems are behind the national ists fighters and that the French can give up all hope of crushing them by military force. Whether the oft-repeated French claims are now coming true, whether the FLN s statements are bravado or simple fact, one thing is sure: day after day the fight ing continues and men die. Present estimates of full-timel rebel fighting strength number their troops at about 40,000 men. About 60.000 part-time guerrillas are believed to join in anti-French raids from time to time. The French are said to have about 400.000 troops in the terri tory. According to left-wing news papers in Paris, the French army cniei in Algeria, lien. Raoul Sa lan, has asked for 80,000 to 100,- ooo more.- IN THE SWIM? EL MONTE. Calif. (AP Mrs. La Rue Smith says she's going to divorce the husband she once thought had drowned.

"DENNIS THE MENACE" Sure is a 'scorcher, isn't it? Look What Is Into Fashion By GAY PAULEY UPI Women's Editor PARIS (UPI) Look what's sneaking back into fashion the sexy sheath. This little dress, a lost wait during the brief reign of the sack, emerged cautiously and is not yet offering competition to, the high waisted empire silhou ette which had dominated almost ail Paris designers' collections for fall and winter. But the sheath is there, hugging every curve, in both daytime and cocktail clothes. One of its major boosters is Serge Matta, who made his debut this week. Other designers have returned to figure flattery with the waist cincher. Whether more of the same is on the way will be determined today with the powerful House of Christian Dior shows. Yves Saint Laurent, the late Dior's successor, talked to UPI just before "cur tain time" but gave no hint of what was coming. I ll just show clothes I like, This Is Story Of Gallant Woman Named Eva Burnay By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS This is a story of a gallant girl named Eva Burnay, who says: "You do your best work in dis tress." Eva Is tall, blonde and beauti ful. Until two years ago she was one of New York's most famous cover girls. Today she heads her own model agency and teaches other girls the techniques of glam or. In the interval between, Eva fought a pitched battle with death, and won. In 1956, at the peak of her mod eling career, Eva woke up one morning paralyzed. At the hospi tal the doctors finally told her she had multiple sclerosis, that mys terious disease which attacks the insulation of the nerves and is be lieved incurable. Her family doctor, who under stood what made Eva tick, started a treatment which was part physi cal injections and part psycholog ical needling. He made me so mad that I was determined to get out of bed and stamp my foot, says Eva. "And when I tried I found that I actually could move my foot a few inches for the first time. I was in the hospital three months, and I left it walking with a cane. After another month I threw the cane away and went back to model ing." Today Eva looks the picture of health.

The one for the Dior New York wholesale firm, shown three weeks ago, placed belts high. But otherwise there was no hint of the empire. Matta, a native of Chile, was one of three of the younger set ot designers to show Wednesday, The others were Guy Laroche, 33, and Michel Goma. 25. All three hampered a girl's midriff. Goma left waistlines where nature put them in his daytime clothes but lifted them for evening. Laroche showed both the nor mal and the you-know-what (I'll be darned if I'll say empire again) but the latter dominated. Matta provided a little some thing for everybody In his youth ful and zestful clothes. He brought back the bell shaped skirt, that pieasmg sunouette winch curves from a slim waist into several yards of fullness at the hem. ing, her eyes shine, she laughs easily and often, and few people notice that she moves carefully when she walks. She still gets reg ular injections, but they are less and less frequent. Says her doctor: "I do not claim that the disease Is cured, but It is under control." Eva is too busy making the most of life to worry about the future. "After I went back to modeling I soon realized that I would have to work within my limitations," says Eva. "Once I almost fell dur ing a fashion show because I had forgotten that it took more effort than formerly to walk up the steps of a runway. So I decided to make use of what I knew best and open a model agency. "Everyone has been wonderful. I think I can honestly say that life has never been so full and rich for me as It is right now."

Main LUCAS Prime Viewing Time Still Begging For Sponsorship NEW YORK ( Almost one- third of the fall season's prime TV evening viewing time stul is beg ging for advertising sponsors. Some in the industry believe the recession is not the only cause of sponsor disenchantment. And cer tainly a recession is not the cause of the viewing public s disenchant. ment with the programs some sponsors have been offering. The network pitch for the ad vertising dollar is based on two beguiling theories: The audience rating theory and the star theory. In turn, the advertising pitch to the public is that a star or a large audience-rated show is the best entertainment. It hasn't quite worked out that way. There are disappointed ad vertisers whose programs collect ed large audiences. It is often for gotten that the financially desti tute, too, watch television. A saga cious system for polling a pro gram s buying audience rather1 than its viewing audience has yet to be devised. Item: The sponsor of "Chey enne," one of last season's highest rated snows, has pulled out. the star theory, unless based on a carefully wrought entertainment concept, is expensive and. usually disappointing. Item: Frank Sinatra was a re sounding flop as a TV weekly reg ular last season and will not re turn on a weekly basis next sea son. The other day when I asked Herbert Brodkin, one of next sea son's new producers of "Playhouse 90," his definition of a star, he replied: "You can tell a star by how much you have to pay him and it's a great way to miscast a show."
