For two hours in the heaviest of
the snowfall, planes bypassed
Portland, but thereafter air traffic
resumed.
The snow fell before the morn
ing rush hour, and hundreds of
persons were late to work as buses

never made it at all, skidding oft
slopes to a standstill.
Schools closed at Sylvan, West
Sylvan and Skyline, west of Port-
hud, and at Riverdale, southwest

The heavy snowfall in the moun

Psychiatrists
Slate Talk
Accused
The first degree murder trial of
Leonard Marvin Lugo was contin
ued until 1 p.m. today to permit
examining psychiatrists from Port
land to talk with Lugo and his de
fense counsel.
Normally the trial, now in
fifth day, would have begun at 10
a.m. before Circuit Judge David
R. Vandenberg.
Lugo, 21, is accused of killing
Joseph Owen Martinez II. 26, in
an alley back of the Broiler early
last August 31. The dispute, trial
witnesses said, resulted from at
tentions Lugo allegedly paid Mar
tinez' estranged wife.
The state was expected to rest
its case shortly after trial resumed
today. District Attorney Arthur
Beddoe had only to offer into testi
mony a statement Lugo had given
Beddoe's office after his arrest
Defense attorneys Joseph O
Stearns of Portland and Glenn D
Ramirez of Klamath Falls then
would present the defense case In
the Involved trial.
The trial certainly will continue
into next week. It began Monday
but no testimony was heard until
Wednesday afternoon because of
delays in obtaining a jury.
Much of yesterday's testimony
was from police officers who de-
ailed accounts of their investiga
tion, at Beddoe's request.
City Detective Dennis Lilly of
fered jurors and a sizable number
of spectators an insight into meth
ods of police work.
He examined state exhibits, now
numbering close to 30, explained
how material evidence was ob
tained. and identified objects in a
large stack of photographs.
Included in state exhibits were
slugs taken from Martinez' body
and sent to the state crime labora
tory in Portland, empty cartridge
cases, unused rounds of ammuni
tion, and a .22 caliber semi-automatic
pistol taken at the scene.
Beddoe established, in close ques
tioning, that Lilly had found no
evidence of a knife or other wea
pon either on Martinez' body or
at the scene of the killing.
Describing his actions at the
scene, Lilly said he asked Alfred
Lugo, the defendant's brother, what
had happened.
"He said he didn't know," Lilly
testified, "but the defendant an
swered the same question by say
ing, 'What are you holding Al for?
I done the shooting.' "
Other state witnesses included
City Police Officer Oscar Gerleve,
Sheriff Murray Britton, State Po
lice Officer Ralph Prouty, ballis
tics expert from the crime labora
tory, and Francis Ramsey, an em
ploye of Scott Loan Company on
Klamath Avenue who said he
witnessed Lugo's purchase of a
gun under the name of Bill Jackson.

A lumber truck slipped out of
control on Route 66 near Bly last

spilled its cargo over the highway.
State police said the accident oc
curred about 6 p.m. The name of
the driver was not available, but

ngton, Hawaii and Alaska to par

one million dollar Movie I.Q.
contest.
The premiere of the movie is

howmanship abilities of Ed
Malork,' manager. The choice of
theaters was made by Kroger
Babb, Hollywood producer and gen
eral manager of MCP studios.
Moviegoers will be urged to en
ter the contest by writing their
thoughts of what should be done
with the invisible ray which is the
heart of the movie. In the film, a
Russian scientist who followed
Khrushchev to America revealed
his discovery of an amazing

The ray could be used to es
tablish and maintain world peace,
or it could be sold by its inventor
at tremendous profit for the pur
pose of establishing a world-wide
army or spy system of invisible
men. ......
There will be more than 50,000
prizes awarded. Four persons in
each state will win all-expense one-
week vacation trips to Hollywood,
Disneyland, Palm Springs, Las Ve-

Bank Assets
Show Boost
Assets of the First Federal Sav
ings and Loan Association in
creased by a record $2,778,114 or
14.88 per cent in 1959, reaching
an all time high figure of $21,439,122
at year's end, George W. Mcln
tyre, president, stated today.
The year 1959 saw increased com
petition for savings and the tight
est home credit market in many
years. The increased facilities of
First Federal, due to the remodel
ing and expansion, aided in the
growth of savings funds. The in
crease in savings totaled $2,690,465,
a percentage increase for the year
of 16.2.
Dividends distributed for the
year totaled $637,512. This is by
far the largest amount ever paid
to the savers at First Federal,
according to Mclntyre.
More home loans were made dur
ing the year of 1959' than ever
before. Total mortgage loans at
the year end totaled $16,129,302.
Additions were made to the re
serve account and the liquidity of
the . association was well main
tained.
Prospects for the coming year
in home construction indicate few
er starts than the previous year.
Personal Income should touch new
highs and this should indicate a
continued uptrend in savings.
