Cameron. 22, charged with the murder of Mrs. Vivian Malone, 50, last Mon day in a trailer court near Chico, claims he recalls nothing of the fatal event nor of his alleged con fession, according to a statement released by his attorney. J. Everett Barr of Yreka. Barr had previously Issued a statement to the eflect that he felt the confession as having been a tape-recording of what the police told Cameron he had said. Barr is now at Oroville, county seat of Butte County, preparing groundwork for the defense. A na tionally known University of Cali fornia criminologist made an ex amination of the dead woman's trailer last Saturday for the de fense. Also engaged for the de fense is Dr. Burton W. Adams, Oakland psychiatrist, who conduct ed an interview with Cameron. Keith Lyde, district attorney of Butte County, has set up a grand jury hearing for January 6, which Rarr regards as a possible blow to Grocery Sold By Couple CHILOQUIN-Mr. and Mrs. Wil liam Lorenz have sold their Lor- enz Grocery to Clyde Leake, who will take over the business Jan uary 2. The Lorenzes have oper ated the grocery nearly 20 years since August, 1039. The build ing was built by Mrs. Lorenz' fath er, R. C. Spink, in 1924 two years before the town was incorporated. It was a service station in the early days, later added a line of groceries, and eventually the serv icing business was dropped en tirely. Leake was employed at the Lor enz Grocery for a five-year period beginning in 1946, then returned later for a one-year term, during which he workeo. in a store and also operated the Gem Theater. He came to Chiloquin the third time over a year ago to work as manager for JoLk's Supermarket which he bought last spring. It was located in the Gienger Build ing, which burned Thanksgiving Day. The store will use the name Clyde's Fairway Market and Leake announces that he will fol low his same general policies of management, including the giv ing of trading stamps. Mr. and Mrs. Lorenz will retain their home which is connected to the store, and will have a small office in the building for several months to complete their business. They do not plan to leave Chilo quin. Lorenz is a past mayor 01 the town. GE Reactor Begins Work PLEASANTON (UPI) The na tion's first large privately con structed nuclear test- reactor went into partial operation Tuesday at the General Electric Vallecitos atomic laboratory here. Officials said the high-powered General Electric test reactor would substantially increase facil ities in this country for testing of materials under intense nuclear irradiations. The reactor will be used chief ly for testing fuels for future use in nuclear power reactors. How ever, it can also be used to ir radiate, for testing, anything from .food to materials used in guided missiles, a spokesman said. PORKY FUND There's still a bit left in the county's porcupine bounty fund. County Treasurer Eva Cook said $266 remains from the $6,000 fund appropriated July 1. Last year the bounty fund was expended in De cember. The next bounty fund against the wood predators would be appropriated next July, if it is renewed. Simple Earth Life Forms Can Grow On Planet Mars WASHINGTON (AP) - Some simple forms of earth life can live and grow on Mars, an Air Force scientist reported today. Now the question is: Can some useful forms of life be grown in Martiiin-like soil, perhaps to pro vide food for visiting earthmen. That, at any rate, is one direc tion for future research, said Lt. Col. John D. Fulton of the School of Aviation Medicine, Randolph Air Force Base, Tex. Some forms of soil bacteria have been shown to live under condi tions similar to those on Mars, Fulton told a meeting at the American Assn. for the Advance ment of Science. These soil bacteria are the kind that help convert basic soils chem icals into plant food. In Fulton's laboratory, these bacteria were introduced to a dif ferent sort of world. To create his Mars-on-earth. Fullon created an atmosphere of pure nitrogen with just about a twelfth the pres.-.ure we know on earth. For soil, he tried two types red sandstone rich in iron oxide.

Lyde stated he would try to prove that Cam eron tortured Mrs. Malone to death while she pleaded for her life. The killing followed after Cam eron and a companion, Glenn A. Becker III, also 22, had called on Mrs. Malone in h e r trailer home and had a few drinks with her, and it was alleged that Cam eron admitted to interviewers that he already had a few beers prior to calling on the victim. According to Becker's statement he had left the scene before any violence took place. Cameron, son of Mr. and Mrs Alexander Cameron of Yreka and a freshman at Chico State College, is alleged to have told sheriff's deputies that he went "berserk" because Mrs. Malone persisted in calling him names. Air Force M.Sgt. Royce E. Ma lone, 34, the estranged husband of the slain woman, is currently lo cated at Larsen Air Force Base, Moses Lake, Washington, and he gave instructions to Larry bil- lick, sheriff of Butte County to have the Veterans Administration make the arrangements for burial in a national cemetery in accordance with his wife's wishes. She was a veteran of the Wom en's Army Corps in World War II. Services were held Monday in Chico with interment m Golden Gale National Cemetery at San Bruno. Three Slated For Return Three men arrested in Los An geles County on Klamath County warrants are to be returned here in mid-January, the sheriff's office said today. They were identified as Glenn E. Berry, 37, and Maynard J. DeBoer, 24, both of Klamath Falls, and Steven E. Wolcott, no address given. Officers said Berry, arrested in Baldwin Park, California, was wanted on a charge of larceny by embezzlement for allegedly steal ing a heating pot from a Kinglsey Field contractor for whom he was working October 10. DeBoer, wanted lor forgery, is accused of writing and cashing a fraudulent $25 check at the Round up Tavern on South Sixth Street on October 13, 1957. He was ar rested in Los Angeles. Wolcott was arrested in Santa Monica, California, where he was selling Christmas trees allegedly stolen from Weyerhaeuser hold ings in Klamath County and from the Klamath Indian Reservation. Deputy Sheriff Del Summers and a guard are to return the men to Klamath County. Summers returned here Sunday with Clifford Barkley, 45-year-old Chiloquin resident who has plead ed guilty 10 a statutory rape charge involving a 4-year-old girl. Barkley entered his plea No vember 10 after indictment by the grand jury and was sent to the Oregon State Hospital in Sa lem for observation. Results of th'e observation were returned to Cir cuit Judge David R. Vandenberg, who -will set a time for Barkley's sentencing. Obituaries STAUB Lee Adam Staub, 53. a resident of Truckee, California, died in Bly December 30. He was a native of Smith County, Kansas. He is sur vived by one son, John Lee Staub of Bly; two sisters, Mrs. Gertrude Stivers, and Mrs. Lois Larson, Klamath Falls: two brothers. Merle Staub of Truckee, California, and George Donald Staub of Salt Lake City. Funeral arrangements will be announced later by Ward's Klamath Funeral Home. HAM DINNER Prisoners in the Klamath Coun ty Jail, numbering about 64, will have a ham dinner on New Year's Day. Sheriff Murray Bntton said For Christmas, it was a turkey dinner with all the trimmings. from Texas, and some lava type soil from Arizona s Painted Des ert. Temperatures were made to vary from 25 degrees below zero at night to 70 degrees above zero in the daytime. Simulating the dry Martian cli mate, he provided only about 1 per cent moisture. Into this strange world, Fulton introduced two kinds of bacteria those which could live with or without oxygen, and those which could not tolerate oxygen. He found thai both kinds not only survived for the length of the experiment 10 months but they also grew and reproduced, al though at a slower rate than under normal earth conditions. Perhaps one reason is that they require more nutrients or food Fulton said. Now Fulton's laboratory is con tinuing work, looking for more and higher order forms of life that can live in tne Martian world. Among some candidates arc fungi, lichens and mosses some of which could be useful food crops to space travelers.
