Chase of Dor- ris Justice Court, Johnson pre pared a statistical breakdown af ter the board had requested him to do so. stated that part or all of the Montague Justice Court's rase load drop can be attributed to the transfer of many cases to the Yreka Court, when Judge James B.

HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON Supply Of Vita! Metals May Come From The Sea SAN FRANCISCO 'API - Thei ocean bottoms are strewn with de posits of manganese and cobalt so rich they probably could break the world market in those metals if they were mined on even a moHect scale, a scientist reported today. The metals are contained in black rock-like formations about the size of billiard balis and are pretty uniformly scattered over the ocean floors, he said. Exis.eice of t.'ic-t formation? has been known o ?s vears. but their ahuirance aH th amount of metals they contain were de termined only recently, said Dr. Roger R. Revelle, director of the Scripps, Institution of Oceanogra phy. Dr. Revelle gave an evaluation of the deposits as made by in vestigators at Scripps and the Un iversity of California at Berkeley. The assays indicated. Dr. Re velle said, that if these formations were dredged up from the depths at the rate of 5.000 tons a day and processed, they would yield enough metal to augment the U.S. manganese supply by 23 per cent and the cobalt supply by 125 per cent. The U.S. produces only 10 per cent of its manganese needs. The rest comes from imports. Manganese is much used as an ingredient to make steel tough and is widely utilized as a com ponent of many alloys. Cobalt is BASIN L'pper Klamath Lake Grange is having its regular meeting Tues day, February 24, at 8 p.m. at the Tomahawk Ski Bowl Lodge. All interested people are cordially in vited to attend.

Idaho AP Disc jockey Ray Bridges. 24, held court in a downtown store window here Saturday in the waning stages of his effort to spin records 232 hours without sleep.

He said three of these motion less moons properly spared would make possible worldwide com munications hy signal relay from one to the other. Silverstein disclosed that two new rockets. Vega and Centaur. will he used in future space probes. They were classed as "advanced boosters" and will be three-stage rockets capable of or biting 7. 500-pound satellites .ton miles above the earth The Centaur is to be powered with a coirvhination of liquid ox ygen and hydrosen which Silver stem said will provide "greatly in creased capability for Mars or enus probes " Glennan said the NVSA sched ules calls for 15 experimental sat ellite launrfungs this year and the same number in 19WV Forty prob ing rockets will be tired into space this year and about 100 next yrar. used in making special steels and in glass and as a coloring material. A survey of the Pacific Ocean floor was made by a Scripps re search vessel as a part of the In ternational Geophysical Year. Its findings, along with those ot re searchers elsewhere, confirmed that the floors of both the Pacific and Atlantic oceans are well dot ted with the deposits, Dr. Revelle said. John L. Mero of the Berkeley institution, and Dr. Edward Gold berg of Scripps reduced the sur vey results to figures on metallic content and the probable cost of recovery. These figures indicate. Dr. Re velle reported, that there is up to 1,000 billion tons of these nodules at the ocean bottoms and they are capable of yielding 100 million tons of manganese. The Berkeley evaluation indi cated, he said, that the nodules might contain on an average $42.50 worth of manganese per ton; that they can be dredged up for $2 a ton, transported to land for $2 to $5 a ton, and processed into metal for about $21 a ton. The oceanography committee of the National Academy of Sciences, of which Dr. Revelle is a member, has recommended that the U.S. Bureau of Mines develop an ex perimental production program over a 10-year period to cost 2.6 million dollars.

Wilson, Hoover Sentenced To Terms In Penitentiary Paul Robert Wilson was sen tenced to seven years in the peni tentiary for cattle rustling Friday afternoon despite a plea for pro bation made by his attorneys. Wilson was convicted of larceny of livestock by a circuit court jury last week at the close of a week-and-a-half long trial. The sentence passed was identi cal with that passed upon Eldon Lyle Shafer. with whom Wilson was indicted for the theft of black, white-faced cow belonging to Chiloquin rancher Lorenz G. VanderKatnp. Both Wilson's attorneys. Joseph O. Stearns of Portland and Glenn R. Ramirez of Klamath Falls, sug gested that Judge David R. Van denberg grant probation to the 29- year-old defendant. Ramirez told the judge Wilson had no criminal record, enjoyed a good reputation and was "not a menace to society. Stearns said he had no great dispute with the jury which con victed Wilson after 36 minutes of deliberation, and opined that "the verdict was proper in view of the atmosphere of the trial" in which he said the "evidence was ten uous. At the end of the appeals for probation. Judge Vanderherg im mediately passed sentence. Previous to the sentencing. Stearns had asked the court for a continuance so he could consider a motion for a new trial. He said he would be in Portland, and sug gested a delay of several weeks. The judge said that had nothing to do with passing sentence at that time, and ordered Wilson to appear. After the sentencing Stearns asked for additional time to con sider a motion for a new trial, and suggested 45 days. The judge gave him until March 20 to file a motion, if he chose.
