(AP)-A group of Boy Scouts and their mothers spoke up today in defense of Scoutmaster William N. Smith, banned by the Boy Scout organi zation. Commented Lee Brown, blind 11-year-old: "I am proud to be a scout, and it was only through the eflorts of Mr. Smith that 1 am." Lee said the stocky, muscular ex-inlantry sergeant took him in to Troop 27 after other troops had turned him down. "He's a great guy and I love to be with him and the troop, Lee said. "He even ordered some scout books in braille for me out of his own pocket." Smith, a 35-year-old laundry operator, was banned for alleged ly conducting camping trips and hikes without proper authorization and disregarding the boys' safety ann neaitn. The World War II veteran, mar ried and the father of a 10-year- old, denied the charges. He said each boy was given a stiffer-than- normal test and only the succes- ful scouts were eligible to go. The trips included a four-day, 200 mile canoe trip on the Connecticut Riv er- and a trip to Alt. Washington in New Hampshire in subzero weather. "God forbid," Smith said, "hut if these boys ever have to take care of themselves, they will know how. Smith, who has been a scout for 23 years, said that before each of the trips he had submitted an out line to the scout office for ap proval. He said the outlines were prepared by a committee com posed of parents of the scouts. One of his older scouts, John D. Miceli. 19. said the training by Smith benefited every member of the troop, now without a charier until the scoutmaster can be re placed. I he regional council of the Bnv Scouls scheduled a hearing for Sept. 8 on Smith's ouster. Numerous protests came from the parents of the 35 members of the troop, and 14 of them gave smith a vote ot confidence yes terday. Commented Mrs. Jnsenh Ri-ar. pa. mother of a 17-year-old scout: Why, there should be more people like Bill, and there would he less trouble in this town, and the world, with young folks." Shasta Weather Records Fall nt'NSMLIR Seventy vear rec ords were shattered for precipita tion and thunderstorms last month, the Mount Shasta Weather Bureau station reports. July is normally the driest month of the year, according to frank Ashell, of the weather bu reau, with a yearly average of 19 inches of raintall. Last month 1.77 inches of rain (ell in Mount Shasta, 1.88 in Weed. 2.74 in Mc Cloud and 3 23 in Dunsmuir. Even heavier amounts fell in the Gazelle uea where a thunderstorm and loudburst on the evening of July '3 ruined grain and hav crops and washed out roads. Crop loss was estimated at $116,000. Nearly two inches of rain fell in Dunsmuir on the same evening but damage was minor. Since records were started in lra. the previous record of rain fall in July in Mount Shasta was 1 46 in 1948. From Julv 16 to 29, Ihere were 10 thunderstorms, an other record number. Average temperatures were slightly higher lhan normal but Weed barelv es- aped Irost on July 1 when the tem perature dipped to 33.

Interment will he marie in Klamath Memorial Park O Newspaper SPOT ADS are inexpensive repeated dally 4e But, he continued, it was neces sary if he were not to be accused of favoritism to his state. Monday Morse blocked passage in the Senate of a bill which had cleared the House. It would have authorized the gift of 9.000 square feet of federal government land in Roseburg to the Douglas County Historical Society. Porter had in troduced the bill and Neuberger had sponsored the Senate meas ure. Morse told the Senate Tuesday there was "no personal animosity or ill feeling on my part toward either of my colleagues" who were on the other side of the mat ter hut that under the Morse formula, which he has lone soon- sored, he had to oppose the bill or be accused of favoritism to his own state. The Morse formula calls for pay ment to the federal government of 50 per cent of the cost of prop erty turned over to a local gov ernment unit or organization for public purpose. Morse suggested that Porter re introduce the bill next year and get it passed by he House wjth the 150 per cent repayment provi sion in it. In, -that ment, he said, he would work for Senate passage. He said he could not agree to a Senate amendment this year incorporating the 50 per cent formula because, he said, he had learned such amendments are likely to be junked in conference. The property in question was lefU by Mrs. jLHlie Li Moorei to the federals government ori her aeatv in 1940. Three ' lots were sold by the federal government for 5110,000, he said, and the one the Porter bill had a value of $30,000. Proponents of Ihe Porter bill produced affidavits to show she intended the property to be used as an historical site. Morse said he would not be influenced bv such evidence because there was nothing to support it in her will Welcome Set For Student DUNSMUIR - Plans are being made to welcome Dieter Heinrich. 18, of Frankfort on Main, Ger many, a foreign exrhanoo ctnHonl sponsored by the American Field service, uieter will arrive Sunday by bus from Oakland after living from New York.

District Court Judge D. E. Van actor scheduled Thomaston s pre liminary hearing for August 25, Chiloquin's for August 21 and Mrs. Davis' for August 15. Thomaston told the judge he was trying to raise money for counsel and asked a delay in the hearing. "I've delayed this before," the judge said, "and I'll set it now so you vfon't, come in asking for more time again. This .case has been delayed for the last- time." Attorney E. E.

Thomaston. impeccably dresed in a light gray suit, was returned to, jail without bond. Chiloquin appeared without a lawyer and told the court he was trying to hire one. Judge Van Vac- Judge Post Up In Air Attorney Robert G. Danielson, now practicing in' Klamath Falls, still is not sure whether or not he has been nominated for dis trict judge of Jackson County. The Oregon Supreme Court an nounced Wednesday in Salem that it would take no action to decide whether it was Danielson or E. Roy Bashaw that was nominated for the post until the matter has been heard in circuit court. In the May election Danielson received more votes than Bashaw, although it was charged he had moved from the county. The state elections otfice had declared Dan ielson nominated, but Jackson County District Attorney Thomas J. Reeder had taken the case to the supreme court. In refusing to act. the supreme court suggested that in the public interest suit should he filed in cir cuit court immediately.

July 29. The board ap proved the plan for the first two years, 1959 and 1960, and held off on the remaining three years un til a choice firms up between ma jor work on two mountain routes. For 1959, the projects approved include six miles of plant mix sur facing on Route 1089, the Etna Callahan Highway, from Etna to Fay Lane. Estimated cost is $350.-, 000 in FAS funds with the county's share, $35,000. Another stretch of the same road, 2.84 miles from Callahan to the Dredger camp will be hard-topped, costing an es timated $100,000 in FAS funds, and $10,000. county funds. Also accepted for 1959 was the resurfacing of State Highway 97 to White Lake, which is also in dexed as Route 753. This project will cost an estimate of $70,000 in FAS funds, and $7,000 in county funds. It is 13 miles long. Another project approved for 1959. at-a cost of $30,000 of FAS monies and $3,000 of county funds, is the construction of a 60-foot re inforced concrete bridge at Yreka Creek on Oberlin Road. In addition to the county match ing funds with the FAS, Powers told-the. board that the county had to pay all the rights of way and Two Blazes Under Control The Klamath District of the U.S. Forest Service got involved in two forest fires Tuesday afternoon, both of them announced almost simultaneously. The first fire was situated up Seven Mile Creek Canyon, just under Bunker Hill. Set by light ning the night before, it was han dled by a crew from Seven Mile guard station; Paul Brady, assis tant district manager from Lake of the Woods, happened to be there when the call came and he went with the crew. The fire was in the mopping-up stage Wednes day morning. The second fire was in the forest service's Ashland District, but it seemed to be a big enough affair to call for outside help. The fire was located south of Fish Lake at a point known as Dunlnp and be gan with a logger's cabin catching fire. From there the blaze spread into the forest. Five men and a pumper were sent from Klamath Falls, to as sist other forest service crews from Ashland and Butte Falls, and log ger camp crews from the area. This fire was also being mopped up Wednesday morning. Spouse Seeking Missing Mate A California woman told police that her husband went for a beer shortly after arriving in the city Tuesday afternoon, leaving her and two dogs in the family car parked in front of the YMCA. After about four hours, and no husband, Mrs. Ervin O. Chumlev filed a missing persons report on her absent spouse. Chumley, his stranded wife told officers, had disappeared before. She suggested that he might even have hopped a freight tor Nevada. The car, wife, and two dogs still were in front of the YMCA this morning. Favorite off so many for to-o-o long!

Cost of this project will be $160,000 of FAS funds, matched by the county with $16,000. Also recommended by Powers was that no large amount of funds be expended on the Grenada-Montague Road until the state makes clear its intentions relative to the possible relocation of Highway 99. The remainder of Ihe five-year program was not accepted by the board until differences regarding the relative merits of the Gazelle Callahan Road and the last six miles over Scott Mountain from Callahan to Trinity County line could be determined. Supervisors W. A. Barr and S. C. Jackson expressed the feeling that the Callahan road should be con sidered more important, and that curves on the west side of the mountain should be removed be fore spending money to connect the Scott ' Mountain Road to the Trinity Road, since it is meant mainly for recreational purposes. Supervisor Don Avery pointed out that completion of the Trinity Coun ty connection would bring into Sis kiyou County thousands of dollars more of tourist money, once ths Trinity Dam and lake were com pleted. Powers also reported to the su pervisors that he is planning on putting men and equipment to work on the Gazelle Road in the near future, and they would continue working until the snow falls. The work to be performd will include Ihe removal of several of the had curves on the mountain. This road was not included in the FAS plan, the road commissioner told Ihe board, as all FAS roads must be surfaced eventually and he did not consider the Gazelle road as economically advisable to surfaca according to FAS standards.
