You know inferiority complexl" Reduction Plant Operation Started By Mining Firm Ex-Soviet Army Officer Plans Return To Russia PORTLAND IAP - Vladimir Pctrovich had made up his mind. In a letter to the Oreson Jour nal, the stocky Russian, who served in the Soviet Army in World War 11, said: 1 arrived in Portland as a dis placed person in 1949. Nearly nine vears have passed since. Now, following my own convictions and wishes, 1 have decided to return to my motherland. School Eyes Withdrawal LAKEVIEW - The reduction plant was put into operation last weekend on schedule by the Lake view Mining Company, the $6'j million uranium operation at Lake view, according to company offi cials. In fact, ore was fed into the fine ore bins from the rod mill one day ahead of schedule, it is re ported. During the first two weeks of operation, both construction and operating personnel are on the job. - The uranium ore reduction plant Itself represents an investment of about three million dollars and the site covers 257'4 acres of land just north of Lakeview. That area includes the ponds into which the tailings are pumped where the liquid is allowed to evaporate. Wa ter for the reduction operation Lioness Finds Good Housing SALT LAKE CITY, Utah (API Susie, an 80-pound African lioness, has a permanent home at last and a potential spouse as. well. Her owner Bill Roberts came forward to claim Susie from ra dio station KALL Thursday, after she had languished in happy com fort at an animal shelter, i Roberts said he left Susie with s friend who he thought would buy Jier. Authorities confiscated the fleek lioness after a meter reader stumbled out of the friend's basement, exclaiming: "There's a lion down there." The radio station claimed tem porary custody and sought to find Susie a suitable home. Roberts, who got Susie from a rancher in eastern Utah last summer, got her back from the , station and promptly turned her over to the Cottonwood Zoological Society, which has a male lion. comes from several wells which have been drilled on the site. It is anticipated that the plant will operate around the clock for 10 consecutive days and then be down for four days because the crew is not yet large enough to work on a staggered shift basis. At capacity operation, 210 tons of ore can be processed a day. On a three-shift basis, the mine and mill will employ about 140 men. The plant will not operate at full capacity during December, however, and the 6.300 Ions of ura nium ore stockpiled is expected to be sulticient tor nearly two months. About 150 tons per day will be processed this month, of ficials at the plant stale. The ore comes by. daily delivery trom the White King Mine on which Lakeview Mining Company holds the lease. The mine is 17 miles from the reduction mill and transported by the Lakeview Logging Company under contract At the White King Mine, urani um is found in clay instead of the usual hard rock. Hard rock ore contains a moisture content of from five to seven per cent, it was explained. The clay ore being processed at Lakeview has an av erage moisture content of approxi mately 18 per cent and "it gets pretty well shaken down in the truck by the time it reaches the reduction mill, officials said. Uranium ore is reduced to "yel low cake" for shipment to the Atomic Energy Commission. No yellow cake is expected to be pro duced until after the first of Jan uary at Lakeview. Under the pres ent setup, it will take about two weeks time for the ore to go through the complete process and be ready for shipment to the AEC.

A group of 2(i Butte Valley School trustees and citizens voted last week, when they met at Macdoel Elementary School, to appoint the committee. Representatives from the board of trustees of Mount Hebron, Red rock, Macdoel and Dorris Elemen tary School districts and from each of the interested service organiza tions in the area will be on the committee. W. E. Roberts. Siskiyou County superintendent of schools, was in vited by Mrs. Don Griffin of the Butte Valley Faim Bureau Cen ter to explain the legal aspects of the withdrawal situation. Roberts offered three alternatives o the assemblage: First, joining with Tulelake . Joint Union High School District and dropping from the Siskiyou Joint Junior College District as well as the high school district. Second, unification with Tulelake High School District, with elemen tary and secondary schools in the Tulelake-Dorris attendance area under a single board, and removal from the junior college district. Third, withdrawal and unification of Mount Hebron, Macdoel, Red rock and Dorris Elementary School districts with Dorris High School in which case the unified district would remain within the junior col lege district. Butte Valley voters voted against setting up the college district and the sale of bonds to construct a college plant. Ray Mclntyre. trustee from Dor ris on the Siskiyou Union High! School Board, represented the Sis kiyou district at the meeting. Mc lntyre said there probably would be a meeting in January of all in terested parties concerning the withdrawal. which I have never ceased to love, hut this is not the point of this letter.
