It appeared certain for the first time in U.S. history that a person of Japanese or Chinese an cestry would be sent to Congress, Republicans conceded their un derdog role but hoped to upset predictions of a Democratic sweep by grabbing several major of fices. Democrats made a strong show ing in the June, primary and have won Hawaii elections since 19a4 Election officials predicted a record vote, perhaps 90 per ' cent of the 183.099 registrants. Youth Hurt In Accident MOUNT SHASTA - Young San Francisco resident, Richard A, Kraft, 24. is in serious condition at Mount Shasta Hospital as a re suit of a three-car collision four miles north of Mount Shasta at 6:20 p.m. Monday. William Andrew Perala, 50, of Weed told officers he was east bound on the Abrams Lake road, intending to make a left turn into Highway 99. Perala apparently pulled into the path of two rapid ly moving southbound cars. 'Richard Kraft was driver or the first 'car; followed by a car driven by Cleo Toms, 18, of Weed. Gary Scott, 16, also of Weed, was passenger in the Toms' vehicle. All four persons involved in the wreck were taken to the hospital at Mount Shasta. Kraft was the only one with serious injuries. Attending physicians said today that Kraft, with internal chest and abdominal injuries, had received nine units of blood in transfusions during the night. Mount Shasta's supply of blood was depleted and an emergency run was made to Redding about 3 a.m. for more. Preliminary reports from the highway patrol state no citations have been issued, since it is im possible to obtain a statement from Kraft and only incomplete state ments from Toms and Scott.

The affair attracted many from outside points, as well as from the Fort Klamath vicinity Students of Mrs. Frank Strahan and Mrs. Hollis Kizer presented four important events in early Ore gon history in a pantomime nar rated by Jon Wilson.

Burns against Eisenhower - appointed Gov. William F. Quinn. Burns, 50, serving a second term as elected delegate to Congress, piled up 69.152 votes in winning the Democratic nomination June 27 from a comparatively unknown opponent. IJuinn, 40. got 49.531 votes in running unopposed for the Rcpub lican candidacy. Burns is backed by Harry Bridges' Longshoremens' Union which claims 24,000 sugar, pine apple and dock workers here ' Quinn has endorsement of AFL- CIO unions, with a claimed mem bership of 15.000. Democrats believe they have a sure winner in Japanese-Ameri can Daniel K. Inouye, 34, running for Hawaii s lone House seat. Inouye, youngest nominee the major races, is a lawyer and territorial senator. He served World War II in Europe with the iio lor Broke regimental com bat team, made up entirely of Americans of Japanese ancestry Inouye lost his right arm in combat. Opposing him is Dr. Charles K. Silva, 55, a dentist who is direc tor of public institutions, Two oldtimers in island politics are contesting for one of the Sen ate seats. They are Oren E. Long, 70, former appointed governor and longtime territorial legislator, and Wilfred C. Tsukiyama, 62, terri torial senator and elder statesman of island politicians of Japanese ancestry. For the other Senate seat, Hawaii-born Republican Hiram L, Fong, 52, millionaire Chinese- American businessman, is oppos ing Connecticut born Frank F. Fesi, 38, a territorial senator who scored the only upset of the pri mary by winning the Democratic nomination. ' The list of 158 candidates for major offices and the Legislature reflects the racial mixture of Hawaii's population. It includes 56 Japanese-Americans, 12 Chinese Americans, 3 of Korean descent and 2 of Filipino descent. The rest are Caucasians or of Hawaiian and mixed blood. Hawaii's first governor will serve until Dec. 3, 1962. He will receive $25,000 a year, a boost of $6,000 over the present appointed executive. The two U.S. senators will serve two, ..four or six years. Their terms will be decided, by the Senate, probably by drawing lots as in Alaska's case last year. The first representative will serve only until Jan. 3. 1961, Hawaii's three-man congression al delegation could be sealed dur ing the current session. HAPPILY ADJUSTED to their new lif. in the United States, John and Joseph Poulos, recently released from a Greek orphanage, play at the home of their new parents, Mr. and Mrs. James Poulos, Lakeview. The attractive, H-year-o'd twins were adopted by the Lakeview couple through the International Social Services, New York City. Foreign Twins Find New Home In Lakeview Now Sympathetic Women Face Charges Of Too Many Cats GLENDALE, Calif. (UPD Two women who face trial on charges of keeping in their home 147 more cats than the legal limit of three pleaded today for "sympa thetic understanding from their annoyed neighbors.

Soviet Union AP) About 20,000 friendly, ap plauding Russians gave Vice Pres ident Richard M. Nixon, the warm est welcome of his Soviet tour when he arrived in this Siberian city today for a goodwill visit. Nixon arrived amid solid signs he was considering more and more favorably a recommenda tion that President Eisenhower invite Premier Nikita Khrushchev to the United Slates for a visit. Persons close to Nixon were understood to be making some impact on him with arguments that Khrushchev must see for himself the strength and vigor of the American economy and the unity of its people to rid him of misconceptions. Thousands of men and women lined the streets here, in some places four and five deep, to wave greetings to Nixon and his wife Communist leaders of this de veloping Siberian industrial area rode through town with the Nix- ons. do not provide less." But in court Monday when the women were arraigned. Richard L. Vernon, who lives two houses away, said: . I know this is America and the women have certain liberties, but this has gone beyond reason. Everyone has a right to a hobby but this defies convention." And Bob Meyer, another neigh bor, said he attends Glendale Col lege and finds studying hard go ing. : It's difficult to concentrate on studies on a hot night as my bed room is 10 feet from the cat com pound," he said. "And it the cats fight, they always wait until 1:30 a.m." Miss Hardison admitted she and Marian Martin housed 150 cats in their plush stucco home in de fiance of a recent city ordinance making housing of more than three cats unlawful without a ken nel permit. But she said her ap plication for such a permit was turned down. Both women pleaded innocent to charges of operating a kennel without a license and asked for a jury trial Aug. 20. LAKEVIEW Greek and Amer ican relations are of the very fi nest as far as two little black- haired, dark eyed twin boys are concerned. The youngsters are John and Joseph Poulos, 4 years old. They arrived here recently at the home of Mr. and Mrs. James Poulos. They were adopted by the Lake view couple through the Interna tional Social Services, New York City, and were met in New York by Mrs. Poulos who made the round trip by plane. Besides having a mother and father, food, in quality and quan tity, seemed at first to be their greatest joy. Born in Athens, they were released from an orphanage where bread, milk and goat cheese were the mainstays of diet. Mr Poulos was warned that she might have a diet problem with them, but it's far from being a problem. She says the way they clean their plates of every particle of food at every meal is a lesson to chil dren of American friends and neighbors. Shortly after the children ar rived, Mr. Poulos" father, John Poulos of Paonia, Colorado, who is also a native of Greece, came to visit with them and converse with them in their native language However, language remains no barrier and they -are picking up English with a speed that sur prises their new parents. They also have learned quickly when mother is getting ready to go to town, and a ride in the car has added another joy in this new life full of successive surprises Mr. and Mrs. Poulos have want ed for some time to adopt a child from Greece but they had been moving around the country loo otlen to qualify under the adop tion rules. Now, with Poulos as general manager of the Lakeview Mining Company, they have a set tied location and found themselves fortunate enough to obtain two chil dren. There is no age problem in se curing children from Greece and many other countries in Europe, (he Lakeview couple states. There were 10 children from Greece in the plane load which brought these boys and they ranged in age from five months to 8 years. There are so many more children over there needing adoption that the Poulos family is eager to offer any information to interested per sons. FIRES St. BERNARD DES LACS, Que.
