In Los Angeles, where 70 edu cators have been subpoened, hear' Ings were postponed from Sept. 15 to Oct. 19. A. L. Winn, counsel for the American Civil Liberties Union in Los Angeles, sairj he welcomed the postponement so that each side could take its case to the U.S. Supreme Court to determine "whether the committee exceeds Its authority when It publicizes names or induces boards of edu cation to discharge teachers who are 'unfriendly' witnesses." In Northern California, the post' ppnement was called "further harassment of the teachers" by Ernest Beslg, Northern California director for the ACLU. lin Road.

Originally, the Draymen's Assn. and California Trucking Assn., the representa tives of trucking management, of fered the drivers $10 weekly pay raises each year for three years But teamsters argued they could get belter economic security on a one-year contract. Today's meeting was scheduled for 11 a.m. Union leaders and some operators were to attend Union members reportedly were trying to line up separate con tracts with owners willing to break the employers' united front. , ' Union spokesmen said that the picket situation was quiet, and that no more "rebel" pickets were roving the city to make un authorized stops of trucks not in volved in the strike as they were doing last week. Picketing today is being done only at authorized locations, they said. Eisenhower-Nikita Talks May Give Some Solution GLAMOR GIRLS tj44M he VmM mm i mm ll V 1M. tin rT "Don't UU anybody, but he end I ere secretly going teady." v WASHINGTON (UPI Vice President Richard M. Nixon be lieves the Eisenhower-Khrushchev talks here may provide the Pres ident with an opportunity to ex plore the possibilities of solving some cold war problems. Such solution. Nixon declared, "might be developed at a later point" when U.S. Allies were rep resented. But he cautioned in a television radio interview Sunday that the exchange of visits was no sign that the Russian line has soft ened or shifted. The scheduled visit to the Unit ed States by Soviet Premier Ni kita S. Khrushchev next month provoked other new comments Sunday. Rep. Stuyvcsant Wainwright iR-N.Y.), who Is supporting New York Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller (nr the 1960 Republican presiden tial nomination, said Nixon's poli tical future may hinge on the out come of the Khrushchev visit. Sen. Mike Mansfield (D- Mont.) said he was "skeptical" about what could be achieved during the premier's visit and was "worried . . . about this mat ter of security as far as (Khru shchev) is concerned." He said the visit put the President and Nixon "on the spot." Sen. Thruston B. Morion (R Ky.), chairman of the Republi can National Committee, said it would be better if Congress were not in session during the Khru shchev visit "because the Con gress is quite a forum, quite a sounding board, and our system is not understood throughout the world. Sen. Jacob K. Javits (R-N.Y.) said that if the national interest would be served by I n v it 1 n g Khrushchev to address the Senate and House "that's all right with me ... I don't think (or one min ute that the American people are going to be taken in by Mr Khrushchev." Former New York Gov. Av erell Harriman, wartime US ambassador to Russia, said on a television show that Khrushchev considers himself such a good salesman he thinks he is going to promote communism in the United States during his visit. "I don't think he will," Harriman added. The Thinking Man or Woman . . . Prtfm avid rrlirf iriiKotit Jmt ojwaitnii, for t)i truimm ef-.

Weather Table United Press International ROBBER'S ROCK, beside the old stage road between Weed and Edgewood, marki a spot where a Wells-Fargo stagecoach was robbed in June of 1876.

McKINNEY MOUNT SHASTA - Robber's Rock, beside the old stage road between Weed and Edgewood, marks a spot where a Wells-Fargo stagecoach was robbed one June day in 1876 by a man known as Black Bart. Whether or not the notorious Bart was the culprit will probably never be known. The man who was robbed believed Bart was the robber, but Bart, when cap tured, never named this as one of his many jobs. The stage driver that day was John Sulloway, whose daughter. Mrs. Emma Thornton, lives in Mount Shasta. Sulloway staled the man carried a shotgun and wore linen duster with a flour sack over his head and in every way conducted himself as Black Bart had always done. Another Siskiyou County robbery was laid at Black Bart's door when a stage was robbed between Yreka and Hornbrook. A marker has been erected there naming Bart as the robber. It may also be a case of mistaken identity. Bart never confessed to being that far north. One wanting to see the old marker (or the Weed robbery can do so by leaving U.S. Highway 99 mile north of Weed, going past the golf course, and traveling about three miles toward Edge wood. A big sandstone on the right of the dirt road was the screen behind which the highway man stood while waiting (or the stage. A small trout stream is on the other side of the road. Today it is a peaceful scene that would seem an unlikely place for violence to have been enacted. But in 1876, it was different.
