Kenneth T. Stone, judge of the Weed Justice Court, presided at the trial replacing Judge Merle Han son of the McCloud Court who had disqualified himself as having been a witness to the crime. A. M. Caselli, McCloud, signed a citizens complaint for Trow bridge's arrest after witnessing the incident along with numerous Mc Cloud citizens. Testimony given at the trial by six witnesses related a vehicle operating in a reckless manner, running two stop signs in Mc Cloud, nearly overturning on turn in front of the McCloud serv ice station and proceeding in reckless manner. When the same vehicle returned from the opposite direction, Judge Hanson, who was in the station when the auto first passed, stepped out to the roadway and attempted to flag the driver down, accord ing to testimony. Trowbridge, who was identified by two witnesses as the driver of the vehicle in volved, made a pass at the judge with Ws vehicle and proceeded out ot town without stopping, witness es said. The vehicle license number was taken by other witnesses at the acene as well as by Judge Han ton. ' Albert H. Newton Jr., district attorney, was the prosecuting at torney and Trowbridge was his own counsel. County Names Welfare Chief YflEKA Wilbur M. Van Over, welfare director ot Amador Coun ty, was named by the Siskiyou County Board of Supervisors as the new welfare director for Siski you County, and will assume his duties on March 1 at a salary of $.r30 a month. Van Over is succeeding Mrs. Caroline Nixon, who was appointed to head the department on a tem porary basis by the Siskiyou board, at the time that Mrs. Dorothy Hill resigned the post last May. The board expressed reluctance at employing a successor for Mrs. Nixon as they felt she was doing a commendable job, but according to stale rules, Mrs. Nixon was nol qualllied legally for the examina tion for the position, since she lacked a few weeks experience as a welfare director. Van Over, who has been wel fare director for Amador County aince 11)57, had previously served as a welfare worker f o r nine years for Stanislaus County. He is 35, married and father of a 10-year-old daughter. Van Over's background also includes his scrv Ice during. World War II with the Navy; he graduated from Modesto High School and Modesto Junior College. He is a member of the Masonic Lodge, and Lions Club. and director of the Amador Tuber culosis and Health Associalion. John C. Henderson, district rep resentative ot the State Depart ment of Welfare, was present at the Tuesday meeting of the super visors, and he commended Mrs. Nixon on her line work as a tem porary director. He further stated that Siskiyou County Adminslrator Jess O'Rokc and Mrs. Nixon should lie equally credited for hav ing kept administration costs be low the state average in connec tion with county aid. Henderson further stated that welfare ex penses are higher than average in Siskiyou County, due to an unusu ally high number of old people who are entitled to county aid.

' The Republican National Com mittee, winding up a two-day meeting here Friday,' authorized Chairman Meade Alcorn to set up a study jCommittce on long-range objectives. Alcorn said the group will "sketch out where we think we ought to go as Republicans." As Alcorn envisions the group he sug gested, it will include members of Congress, governors, party offi cials "and a cross section of lead ers in all walks of life." This parallels in some respects the Democratic Advisory Council. That group issues periodic state ments on parly policy and pnnci pics that at times are ignored by Senate Democratic leader Lyndon B. Johnson of Texas and House Speaker Sam Rayburn iD-Tex). Both Johnson and Rayburn de clined to join the Democratic Ad visory Council, but said they would be glad to confer with the members and receive their ad vice. Alcorn said in an interview he doesn't know if his projected study committee will produce the kind of statement of principles that Sen. Barry Goldwater (R-Arizi and Rep. Richard Simpson (R Pa) said the Republicans need if they are to win in l!)(iu. Goldwater and Simpson, con servalives who head the Senate and House GOP Campaign Com mittees, made It unmistakably clear they and their congressional colleagues want to be consulted about policy, patronage other party matters. They were reported disturbed because their opinions weren't asked on an expansive plan by Alcorn to step up party campaign ing on a year-arnund basis. Al corn submitted his plan in ad vance only to Eisenhower and Vice President Nixon. For this reason the congression al Republicans were represented as doubtful about any party or ganization move to invade the pol icy making field. Goldwater and Simpson left no room for doubt they think the par ty will have more success in 1960 if lis principles tire spelled out more clearly. nd all. Goldwater told the National Committee in a message Friday that Republicans had better "quit copying1 the New Deal." He said (he party ought to "declare against centralized government and then act as if it meant, it. Because Goldwater and Simp son directed some of their com ments at Eisenhower, Alcorn pleaded with the Republicans to quit blocking their own team's ball carriers. "We have not been winning elec tions by criticizing each other he said. "You don't cure this sick elephant by bleeding it. We need to patch up those wounds. We need to sew up those scars." T Has Important Slate On Campus Of Ore-Tech By LAMAR HOOVER The campus of Oregon Techni cal Institute is the site of one of the most important, but less well known,- operations of the Klam ath Countv Young Men's Chris tian Association, which is now ob serving National YMCA Week as prelude to its annual Member ship Roundup. . ' The beginning of the Y's Com munity Center on the OTI cam pus goes back to the fall of 1455, when General Secretary P a trl Campbell had a series of meet ings with a group that eventual ly came to be known at the YMCA student steering commit tee. "Something has to be done on weekends" is the axiomatic be ginning of the notes which have survived from one of these meet ings. Possibilities considered for supplying this "something" were: riding club,, mpvies, judo anq swim team. . But fhe YMCA is meant to be more than a time-passing organ ization, so the concern for week ends was followed up by more sig nificant objectives: serving all, pulling together, developing friend ly relationships with folks down town, etc. At about this same period, peo-j pic on campus were circularized with an "interest finder," which asked them to indicate the de gree of interest which various ac tivities held for them. Some 20 ndd activities were listed, and it seemed impossible at the time that most of them would one day be at hand. However, the Y did get under way that fall, in second story fa cilities provided through the kind offices of Winston Purvine, by the Oil administration. Within two years the Y was active enough that it asked for, and received, use of its own building. By that time it had initiated seven-day-a-week program, and most of the activities originally suggested were under way. The equipping of the new build ing was greatly., helped by a num ber of business firms in Klamath Falls, and also by service clubs and OTI students and instructors. Once completed, it had a game room, TV mom, wrestling and boxing room, a nursery, a snack counter, an office and service cen ter, meeting room, shower room, a kitchen and weight-lifting facili ties. In the year and a half since the opening of the new Commu nity Center, the pace of its ac tivities has gradually accelerated, and the scope of its service to the OTI community broadened. Saturday, for example, the facul ty wives are using the center for the first time, for a folk square dance program. personnel, will help extend tha Y's work. Jim Pinson. assistant dean of men, is chairman of the new council. Other members include George Crowe, manager of auxil iary activities on the campus; James Armson, counselor: and However, the Klamath County, Ken Bivins. instructor in illustra. YMCA, which has continued to sponsor and to supervise the di rection of the center, considers this activity to be only a part of the character-building program which it should conduct at OTI. Just this week. Campbell had his first meeting with the newly or ganized YMCA Advisory Council which, made up of members of the faculty and of administrative live art, who is also the super visor of the family nights which tre held at the Community Cen ter on intermittent Saturdays. The Community Center is an ac complished fact. Perhaps this new interest on the part of some mem bers of the faculty will enable the Y to play an even more impor tant role at OTI in the years to come.
