OREGON MONDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 1 950 Beatniks On Sunset Strip Make Squares Feel Square By BOB THOMAS HOLLYWOOD (API - "Let's go watch the beatniks," my friend faid. It sounded like a good idea. Aft er all, this was a phase of my own beat, the entertainment field. Coffee houses are springing up like mushrooms on Hollywood and Sunset boulevards and other by ways of the beat generation. So we went. Incidentally, It was author Jack Kerouac who apparently set the theme and the name of the beat nik movement. In one of his ram bling works, he is said to describe a transition from being a dead beat to a feeling of beatitude. The generation might also be termed as being beat (tired) and having a beat 'jazzl. Take your choice The joint on the Sunset Strip was THE BIG WAR THEY FOUGHTl THE BIG LOVES THEY FOUND!

We felt square in our coats and ties. The males were in shirt sleeves with blue jeans or cordu roy pants: I had the feeling that pnyone in a gray flannel suit would have been banished. The girls were in peasant skirts, Capri pants, pedal pushers, clam dig gers and whatever else they call those pants. A fellow in an open-necked shirt and Ivy League pants came for ward and reported in a Marlon Brando-like mumble that there might be a table in the balcony We continued through the place and into the back patio. It was filled with tables surrounded by more of the same. They watched raptly as a young fellow plunked a guitar and talked folk songs There was a balcony above this scene and a vacant, rickety table where we ordered Italian cof fee and chocolate at 65 cents a cup. At those prices, beatniks can't be poorniks. We sat on the balcony and watched the crowd as two other folk singers took orer with their guitars. "Why don't beatniks laugh?" I asked. "Because life is grim, life is earnest, my friend said. They can find nothing to laugh about in this age of anxiety when the bomb may fall any moment. We had to admit that every gen eration lost, beat or whatever is compelled to seek its own fla vor. We had beer. Glenn Miller and Betty Grable. They have cof fee, Elvis and the shade of Jim my Dean.

After Brown defeated Knowland by more than a million votes in the governorship race last week, Knowland, retiring Senate Repub lican leader, said he was leaving public life for the family news paper, the Oakland, Calif., Trib une. But Brown, appearing Sunday on a television program CBS "Face the Nation." described Knowland as: "an important pub lisher with a great national repu tation and many friends.

AP) - An ob ject which appeared to be a bomb was removed from the front porch of a Jewish student center at the University of Missouri Sunday. The highway patrol said the ob ject was harmless. Rabbi Abraham Pimontel. di rector of student work at the Hillel Foundation House, said he was sure the device was the work of a prankster. The device was in a green shoe- box.

He immediately took his find to Dr. Carl Everstine, director of the De partment of Legislative Research and the authority on matters leg islative in Maryland. Dr. Everstine confirmed the aw ful truth. The state's Great Seal bears no more authority than that con tained in any legislative rpsolu tion. And even a Senate page knows a resolution has no legal authority. This is what Judge Foster found: .' ' A complete description of the seal is found in the commission of Cecilius Calvert, Lord Baron of Baltimore, when it was sent to the province in 1648. Some 200 years later, in 1864. the Maryland General Assembly apparently thought it had found an error in the coat of arms. A joint resolution in that year adopt ed a state seal to conform to the arms of Lord Baltimore as found On the title page of Baron's Laws of Maryland, printed by Jonas Green. Two years later, however, in 1866. the lawmakers discovered Green's interpretation of the seal was erroneous. So a second reso lution was passed, reverting to the former seal. Judge Foster says he has asked Democratic State Sen. Raymond Buffington Jr. of Baltimore to correct this glaring oversight by introducing a bill in the next Leg islature to legalize the seal. All this leaves one for the law yers to kick around. If the law requires a, law to bear the state seal to be legal, whore docs that leave Maryland's volumes of law for the past 200 years?

It's a fight congressional lead ers wish to avert, but fear they cannot. It centers on demands of Dem ocrats from Northern and Western areas for restoration of the 21-day rule, which was in effect in 1349 1950. Under that provision the Rules Committee could not bottle up for more than 21 days any bill ap proved by a standing committee cf the House. After that the bill could be called up for floor action without Rules Committee ap proval. The Rules Committee serves as a steering committee or traffic cop, determining which legislation goes to the floor for a vote and under what limitations governing Desire To Drive Trolley Overwhelms Georgia Man ATLANTA fAP)-"I always had a supressed desire to drive a trol ley and all of a sudden I found myself with the nerve to do it." That s how James Camp, 22. a roofing sub-contractor, explained Sunday's theft of a 10-ton, 35-foot long trackless trolley. "I'm sorry I did it now, of course," he told police, "for it's no fun to be locked behind these bars, but it was great fun dashing down the street. Police said Camp took the vehi cle while G. S.

Her master, Clarence Coursey, 67, a retired restaurant operator, drops food down the hole regular ly. Nobody knows how the cat hap pened to fall into the hole. Cour sey lives in a small hotel room nearby. Firemen, policemen and mem bers of the Humane Society all have made unsuccessful rescue at tempts. Advertising Gets Credit SPOKANE (AP) - Advertising was credited Saturday with being responsible for the supremacy of the Idaho potato in Eastern mar kets. Norris Stettler, Pendleton, Ore., told the closing session of the Pa cific Northwest Newspaper Ad vertisers Executives Assn. he could see little difference between Idaho potatoes and those grown in Washington or Oregon. But, he said Idaho potatoes com mand a premium price in the East because of an advertising cam paign begun mora than 30 years ago by Idaho growers. The cam paign resulted in convincing con sumers of the superiority of the Idaho spud, Stettler said. Two association awards for best display of advertising went to the Seattle Post Intelligencer. The PI was honored for the best cam paign, one produced and de veloped by salesmen Neal Mac Neil and Fred Marshall., and for the best all-around exhibit. ' The Walla Walla Union Bulletin received an award for the best single color advertisement and the Vancouver. B. C. Province for the best multiple color ad. The Fairbanks News-Miner was honored for the best promotional idea its 49th state edition. Eugene Register-Guard's Paul Peterson placed second for the best campaign. , Delegates chose Eugene, Ore.. as the site of their spring meeting. debate and amendments. That committee has been domi nated for years by a coalition of Republicans and Southern Demo crats. With Congress under Dem ocratic control, it is composed of e Democrats and 4 Republicans. Two of the Democrats are Chair man Howard W. Smith of Virginia and Rep. William E. Colmer of Mississippi. Smith and Colmer, along with the four Republicans, have effec tively bottled up in committee many bills they opposed. Legislation not cleared by a ma jority of the Rules Committee has difficulty reaching the House floor for a vote. The 21-day rule was adopted in the 81st Congress, when Demo crats had a 263-171 margin in the House. The new House is divided 281-153 Democratic, with one race in Illinois still undecided and one member still to be elected from Alaska. up a passenger, but I chickened out," said Camp.

Company officials expressed surprise that an inexperienced driver was able to handle a trol ley, a job which requires a certain amount of know-how. But they weren t half as sur prised as Bethel when he returned from his coffee break to find the trolley missing. Bethel hailed another trolley and told the driver about it. "You got a great imagination," the other driver said. Finally Bethel called police. Half an hour later two patrolmen spotted the wayward trolley and halted it. The driver jumped out and ran so fast he lost his shoes but the officers caught him. Officers figured Camp's "supressed desire" trip covered about a mile. The trolley's num ber 1313.
