WEDNESDAY. AUGUST 13. 1958 HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON PAGE !M-A The Red Cross Reports By JOY ROLPH The 159 pints of blood collected at Merrill on June 4 plus the 251 pints gathered at the Masonic Lodce on June 5 put our commu nity squarely on the target for its quota for the quarter, reports Mrs. Madelyn Swaney, chairman of blood program for the Klamath County chapter, who extends a "thank you" to all who save blood. time and supplies to make this visit a rousing success. Meanwhile, 165 pints of blood were used in June and July from the bank supply by sick and in jured in the Klamath area, plus three walking donors who were called to aid a local victim of pernicious anemia. The National Red Cross is ex panding its program of blood fur nished to veterans hospitals from S0.0O0 to 120.000 pints. To ease the strain on an over-taxed budget. federal hospitals will reimburse the Red Cross for a portion of its cost in collecting, processing and typing this blood. There is no charge to the veteran for blood Officer Carl Jennings of the Klamath Falls Police Department has accepted the appointment of new First Aid chairman for the local chapter, according to Dick Gallagher, chapter chairman. Po lice Chief Charles Howard and Councilman Walter Fleet have ap proved Jenning's attending a Na tional Red Cross First Aid school at Garberville, California, from August 20 to 30. This will insure the city police department an offi cer who is well qualified to con duct all first aid teaching for the police personnel, plus giving com munity leadership in an important service activity. Within the past two months Herhert Hndlev. instructor, com pleted a class of four junior and five standard first aid students in Bly: Ernest Hardman, instructor, completed an advanced first aid class at Crescent. Instructors O. E. Pcderson and John Quinn gave ad vanced first aid training to police and bus drivers in Tulelake, and John Bowdler completed a stan dard class for 16 Crater Lake em ployes. All instructors are volun teers and all first aid training is free. Mrs. May Myers, chairman of water safety, reports that Red Cross swimming instruction reached a new ocak in Klamath County during June and July. In- siruciors issued 443 beginners cards, 176 intermediate. 95 swim mers, two advanced swimmers, 17 junior lifesaving, five senior life saving and two water safety aides. Cards issued represent only a percentage of class enrollment, according to Mrs. Myers, as in structor Carol Causey had over 50 enrolled at Crescent Lake but could give cards to only 10 swim mers. Red Cross trained instructors are teaching at the Malin dooI. Crescent Lake. Low Echo Girl Scout Camp, Camp Esther Apple gate, the municipal pool, Chilo quin and Twin Springs plunge. The wim program at unnoquin is a new activity for the Klamath chapter, as is the Low Echo Girl Scout Camp at Lake of the Woods. Nancy DeMcrritt of Malin will attend the National Red Cross Aquatic School at Tulequia, Cali fornia, sponsored by the local chapter. 4 Bob Bonney, director of Parks and Recreation for the city, wrote the following in commendation of Mrs. Myers' efforts with this pro gram: "We of the recreation de partment want to express our sin cere appreciation to you and to the American Red Cross for your fine efforts and services. . . ," Mrs. Alma Swcetman, home service chairman, reports that 73 servicemen, 33 veterans, eight ci vilians and seven Kingsley Field personnel received service and as sistance from the Klamath chapter in June and July. Loans and grants totaled $709 for the two months. In this connection, it might be remarked that it's never too late, for a World War 1 veteran, read ing that the Red Cross was short of funds, recently repaid a Red Cross loan made to him in 1919. With fingers crossed, disaster workers recall that July ushered in the five months hurricane sea son. The Weather Bureau has ad vised all Red Cross chapters and the public to keep well prepared and remain alert to weather bul letins. During the first 11 months of the year, Red Cross disaster expenditures totaled seven million dollars. Israel Watchful Observer Of U.N. Meet Rocket Astronomy Finding That Our Sun Is Litterhug By ALTON BLAKESLEE Associated Press Science Writer MOSCOW (API Rocket astron omy is finding evidence our sun is a litterburg. The sun is strewing a lot of hy drogen gas around in the earth's front yard and in the path of all planets of the solar system. If you could expose a quart milk bottle to this gas in space, it would pick up from 100,000 to a million hydrogen atoms, reports Dr. Herbert Friedman of the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory in Washington. Most if not all of this gas ap parently comes from the sun, which ejects it in vast flares. But, interplanetary space is still a pretty good vacuum. A quart of air at sea level contains ten mil lion billion atoms. ' Friedman's report is new evi dence the sun's atmosphere in ef fect extends all the way to the earth, which is a distance of 93 million miles, and probably be yond. It is also evidence that space Is not quite so empty as once believed. Friedman and his associates or iginated a new, third kind of as tronomyobservations made with rockets rather than with earth telescopes catching visible light or with recording of radio waves from space. The American scien tist described the finding at a meeting today of the International Astronomical Union. The rockets are equipped to see only ultraviolet light of a kind much more energetic than that which tans your skin. Rising to heights of about 100 miles, the ul traviolet eyes see a remarkable spectacle. Space becomes aglow with in tense light, rather than being black. The glow is an ultraviolet light 1 i 1 4 ' s'i iff ajj.iiiii.i'fc' ROTARY DISTRICT GOVERNOR William S.

Top U.S. Stamp Trader Named In Smuggling Case NEW YORK (AP)-A top Amer ican stamp dealer is accused of smuggling thousands of dollars worth of stamps from Red China. The dealer, hurt Weishaupt ol Queens, was indicted in Brooklyn federal Lourt yesterday under the Federal Trading With the Enemy Act. He is scheduled to plead next Tuesday. If found guilty, he would face a possible maximum sentence of 40 years in prison and $40,000 in fines. The six-count indictment charges the 45-ycar-old dealer imported the stamps from shanghai between November 1953 and February 1957. An unidentified American naval officer stationed in Japan was said to have tipped federal authorities to the operation. Asst. U. S. Atty. Warren M. Deutsch said more than two mil' lion stamps were seized In Weish aupt s homer He reportedly paid more than $33,000 for them. weishaupt, a former president of the American Stamp Dealers Assn., was said to have sold smuggled stamps at 100 per cent prom. The naval officer told authorities last year that Communist Chinese stamps were being sold at a con cession at Gimbels department store. Neither Gimbels nor the conces sionaire was named in the indict ment. Deutsch said thc-y had co operated fully in the investigation. Treasury agents reported tracing $33,394 sent by Weishaupt to his alleged source, a Shanghai firm named the Oriento Stamp Co. I he stamps assertedly were shipped in small parcels to mem bers of Weishaupt's family. ' WILL PRAY OVER RADIO VATICAN CITY (UPD-Pope Pius XII will recite the Angel u prayer over the Vatican Radio Friday on the feast day of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary, the Vatican said today. Reconnaissance Units Keep Vigil On Lebanon Troops UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. (AP), hands Israel is taking the position of a watchful observer at the outset of today's U.N. emergency Assembly session on the Middle East. But Israel has made plain to the Western powers and Secretary General Dag Hammarskjold that it cannot be ignored in any vital de cisions affecting the future of its area. Israel's delegation to the Assem bly is headed by Ambassador Abba Eban. He is being assisted by Arthur Lourie, the Israeli am bassador to Canada, and Moshe Tov, adviser on Latin-American affairs at the Foreign Ministry in I el Aviv. Authoritative sources said this was Israel's position: Israel has served notice on the Western powers that if Jordan seems about ready to fall into the of a particular wavelength which does not reach the earth because it is filtered out by the earth's air. This is a part of the sunlight which has been bounced around by atoms of neutral hydrogen. meaning atoms carrying no elec trical charge. The special rocket eyes meas ured the intensity of this light. This measurement was the base for an estimate that there are 1,000 neutral atoms per quart in space. And it is known that for every atom of neutral gas there are 100 to 1,000 electrically charged hydrogen atoms. There fore there are 100,000 to 1,000.000 atoms per quart in the interplane tary area, which means the dis tances between all planets and the sun. When the rocket eyes are tuned to a higher wavelength they can see through the glow and locate distant stars and galaxies as blobs of radiation. This astronomy promises to aid greatly in under standing of the universe. of President Nasser's United Arab Republic, defense considerations will dictate Israel's course of action. Uppermost in Israel's mind is what happened in Gaza. The Israe lis feel they surrendered Gaza to U.N. control, only to be confronted later by Nasser's forces in that area. They do not intend to see the same thing happen in Jordan. The inference is that the Israelis will occupy all of Jordan west of the Jordan River and the Dead Sea, including the Old City of Jerusalem. Eban intends to speak In the Assembly when it gets down to brass tacks on specific proposals. He wjll stress Israel's conten tion that any state threatened by another has the right to invite help from a friendly power. He will also stress that any guarantees given to Arab states in the Middle East should be ap plicable to non-Arab states as well. Police Ready To Stop Any Anti-Red Demonstrations Entertainment Group Bans Nudoscope MEXICO CITY (AP) Mexico City's Entertainment Department has banned use of the term "Nudo scope" in advertising the movie Enchanting Ladies. Original ads said: "First Cin erama P anorama Cinema Scope and now Nudoscope." The department said the term was too suggestive. The cast eludes several noted flesh artists. LIGHTNING KILLS MOM GRAVESEND, England AP)- A mother of nine children was killed here yesterday as she bent over a baby carriage to kiss her 3-month-old daughter Yvonne. Mrs. Kathleen Hewson was wearing a metal clip in her hair. Lightning struck it and she fell with her hair ablaze. The baby, Yvonne, was not hurt. U. S. OFFICIAL HONORED BERLIN (UPD Martin J. Hil lenbrand, political adviser to the u.!. Mission in Berlin who is re turning to Washington, was hon ored with a farewell party in the West Berlin city hall Tuesday night. He was presented a white porcelain bear, Berlin's heraldic figure. NEW YORK (UPD Two small American flags hang today in the ground floor windows, of a build ing on Park Avenue at 68th Street. Behind them are the of fices of a small private organiza tion, the Bureau of Municipal Research. The flags are there because next door is the residential and office headquarters of the Soviet delegation to the United Nations. A few weeks ago, Hungarian demon strators threw rocks through the windows because they thought the offices also belonged to the Rus sians. It is a mark of the anticipation there could be trouble while For eign Minister Andrei Gromyko, who is leading the Soviet delega tion to the General Assembly, is living there. Gromyko's presence, actually, seems unlikely to stir emotions at all the way a visit of Nikita Khrushchev could. In any event. New York police are ready to stop any demonstration quickly. Police Commissioner Stephen Kennedy ordered 20 patrolmen, four sergeants and a captain to start standing guard at the Rus sian building at 6 a.m. Twenty more policemen were assigned nearby and a detective squad car was on hand to follow Gromyko wherever he goes. The Russian foreign minister isolated himself in the building when he arrived Sunday with 34 aides and secret police body guards. The Soviets had reserved four suites in the towers of the Waldorf-Astoria, where President Eisenhower and John Foster Dul les are staying. But on arrival at the airport they drove instead to the Park Avenue building and cancelled the Waldorf reserva tions. Getting any news about the or dinary activities of Gromyko and his associates is almost impossible: BEIRUT, Lebanon (AP) Re connaissance units of the U. S. Army keep a constant watch on rocky ridges beyond which the mysterious forces of rebel leader Jamal Jumblatt make their camps. The American watchers work with helicopters, jeeps and on foot. The blue Mediterranean glis tens about four miles away. They get down to the beach about once every three days to swim off the dust 'that goes with soldiering They are not looking for trouble and have not had any. Like the cavalry of old they are the eyes of the Army. They should be among the first to know if the present uneasy truce in Lebanon breaks down. In the most advanced position of all, members of Troop C, an airborne reconnaissance unit of the 17th Cavalry, are dug in snugly. Working with Lebanese security troops and patrolling on their own, they keep track of any disturbances in rebel territory. Maj. Oran K, Henderson of In dianapolis, the commander, said: "According to our information Jumblatt's army has about 35 per cent local people from his own area in its ranks with the other 65 per cent being what we call strangers. These are said to be Lebanese from other parts of the country, Syrians and even Egyp tians. "Jumblatt, who is even respect ed by his opponents, can keep the local people in his army from starting the shooting again. His control over the strangers is ques tionable, however: that is why we are here to keep a watch on things." The Welcome Wagon .
