HAROLD DONNER, new editor of the Lake County Ex

At one time he was a columnist for the Klamath Falls
Herald and News and later published a weekly news

Lake
New Editor
Heads
Paper
LAKEVIEW Announcement of a
new editor of- the Lake County
Examiner has been made by Glen
H. Charles, publisher of the week
ly newspaper here.
Succeeding Les Shaw as editor
is Harold Donner, a native of
Horton, Kansas, who came to the
Pacific Northwest from Nevada,
Missouri, in 1930. He worked at
Portland in advertising and even
tually in sales for Columbia Film
Exchange where he remained for
11 years. During that time he was
married to a Grants Pass girl and
engaged in free-iance writing.
He came to Klamath Falls in
1043 where he was stationed at the
airport in the Air Force pilot train
ing program. As part of his pro
gram, he wrote a column for the
Herald and News.
Entirely by accident, he says,
he got into small town newspaper
work. When an operation preclud
ed heavy physical labor, he cast
about to determine a new field.
At the office of the Payette (Ida
ho) Independent Enterprise in
1950, he found an editor was need
ed and he took the job for two
years. After that, he worked on
papers in Eastern Idaho, Beaver
ton, Oregon and then moved to
Okanogan, Washington, where he
edited and published the Okanogan
Independent. The eventual attrac
tion has been back to Oregon, es
pecially through the urging of
Mrs. Donner who likes livine in
her native state.
Donner says their move to Lake-
view will probably be their final
one as he is an ardent devotee
of hunting and fishing and is sin
cerely impressed by the hospitality
of the local residents.
The Donners have rented a
home and placed their 8-year-old
son in school.. They are parents
also of two grown daughters and
grandparents of two girls and a
boy.

Children Leap
To Safety
GREAT FALLS. Mont. (UPD
Four children leaped from a sec
ond story window of their burning
home into the safety of their
mother's arms here early Sunday.
The youngsters, ranging in age
from 6 to 11, were the children of
Mr. and Mrs. George Klinke. One
of them, George, 10, sprained an
ankle when the force of his fall
knocked his 110-pound mother to
the snow-covered ground.
The blaze, which apparently
started from either faulty wiring
or an overheated refrigerator in
the kitchen, destroyed- the home.
It took firemen four hours to quell
the blaze.
The family had just finished re
modeling the home and was in
I he process of moving in when the
fire broke out. Four of the Klinkes'
six children were staying in the
house Saturday night while the
parents and two other children
slept in the home next door.
Judy Klinko, 11, was awakened
hy the smell of smoke in her bed
room. She roused the other child
ren and they rushed to a window
where their screams awakened
Mr. and Mrs. Klinke.

Alert Slated
By Air Guard
SALEM Residents in areas
housing Army and Air National
Guard units are cautioned not toj
be alarmed when a practice alert
is sounded and the Oregon National
Guard is temporarily mobilized.
This warning came from Maj. Gen.
Thomas E. Rilea, Oregon's adju
tant general, who earlier this week
announced that a statewide prac
tice alert would be held to test the
guard's current alert and mobili
zation plans.
"When the alert comes, the resi
dents of Oregon will see their Na
tional Guardsmen mobilized quick
ly to carry out the duties assigned
to them in case of an emergency,"
General Rilea said. "This will give
our fellow citizens a chance to
see Oregon National Guard in
training and learn more about the
mission assigned to our National
Guardsmen in peace and war."
The exact time and date of the
practice alert will be kept secret
until just before the alarm is
sounded, General Rilea explained.
General Rilea s "mobilization or
der" will be issued to the head
quarters of the major national
guard units, who will in turn trans
mit the order to the units under
their command.
The practice alert will affect all
90 units of the Oregon Army and
Air National Guard located in 38
Oregon communities.
