Defense Attorneys Richard Bees- ley and P. K. Puckett planned to ofler before sentencing testi mony "in mitigation of t h e sen tence. A required witness was not available, however, so Circuit Judge David R. Vandenberg post poned additional tesliomony and sentencing at defense request. Heesley said it was anticipated that Carswell himself would take the witness stand. The defendant did not testify in his own behalf in the two-day trial earlier this week. Carswell was arrested by state and city police October 1 with ma terial in his possession which a jury determined was marijuana.

SPECIAL EMPHASIS of the YMCA is being concentrated on activities for the youth of teen-age and the young adults. Here, teen-age youths of the Altamont Junior High Dance Committee make plans for a social event. Left to right, they are Janet Wardell, Tom Day, Darrell Mitchell, Tyana Payne, Coral Fuller and Don Workman. Worldwide YMCA Week is being celebrated this week. GOP Leader (Continued from Page 1) Ion and Secretary of State How. ell Appling may run for these offices this year. In listing Republican accomplish ments in the state, Gunnar said there are "8,000 fewer unemployed than a year ago, and the Employ ment Department has been re organized under a new philosophy of job placement rather than merely pay out." "Another new concept of gov. eminent has been introduced into the welfare picture," he contin ued, "so only those incapable of making a living are drawing wel fare." Shifting his aim to the nation al level, Gunnar challenged the Democrats to find legitimate is sue's for the coming campaign. From 1952 to 1959, he said, the the Republican record shows em ployment has increased 8.2 per cent, the average weekly wage of workers has risen 32.9 per cent anil the family income 21.5 per cent. "Under President Franklin Roos evelt," he compared, "the Con sumer's Index on cost-of-living rose 28.7 per cent; under Prcsi- flnnl llai-t-w Trtim-in 5fl (1 nitf nnnl antt under eight years of the Re m,Min niv u7 - i Funerals BOLLMAN .

YMCA Directors Board Sets Goals For Decade The Board of Directors of the Klamath County YMCA went on record as to the direction they wish the association to move in the next ten to twenty years. The motion, passed unanimously and reported to' the annual meeting of the membership for approval, reads as follows: "The YMCA seeks to serve all ages, but will give special emphasis in its serv ices to youth of teen-age and young adults." Therefore in an attempt to get an answer to the question, what does the Y have to offer teen agers: it is well during this week of celebrating worldwide YMCA week to comment on some of the present services to teen-agers. The Y teeners program for eighth grades last winter is to be continued by popular demand. This new phase of the program for both boys and girls from Fremont and Altamont Schools provides a Y- sponsorcd social affair once a month from now through April. The YMCA Board ot Directors of ficially acted to set aside the regu lar policy of making a service charge for the use of headquarter facilities.' Limited:, space of the present Y headquarters limits this invitation to Altamont and Fre mont Junior High eighth graders There will be a representative meeting of both Fremont and Alt mont students January 26 to ap prove plans for 1960. The objec tives that were worked out by last year's council for this affaii were as follows: 1. Getting better acquainted. 2. Learning social know how. 3. Learning how to take more esponsibility. 4. Parent participation. 5. All who attend to participate. From 200 to 350 will be expect ed. Another phase of this empha sis of Y program for teen-agers is the leadership training expericne cs boys as well as girls are hav- ng as assistant instructors in the :hysical activities class conduct ed at the Y headquarter during the week for younger boys and girls. A junior leaders corp is in the process of development. 1958-59 361 972 1,341 966 647 3,475 25.988 6,513 95,936 2" or 4 01. min Thursday 4.25 4.50-4.75 2.25-2.50 The Hi-Y Club program for boys girls conducted by' the YMCA is among the better known activities of the Klamath County YMCA. Cur rently the Modoc Chapter for boys and the Talamath Chapter for girls arc looking forward to the annual induction period for new members. Plans call for the or ganization of an additional chap ter for both boys and girls. A new facilility added in the downtown headquarters which the Hi and Tri-lli-Y members will be using is the "Upper Room," a room set up for worship as a small chapel. Each Hi Y and Tri- Hi Y Club has an elected chap lain and they will conduct spe cial worship services for their members from time to time. An important program in which local delegates take part is the YMCA Youth and Government ac tivity. Its purpose is to train youth of teen-age for moral and political leadership. Elected delegates from Klamath Falls will be attending the southern Oregon Youth and Government Prc-Lcgislative As scmbly to be held in Ashland Sat urday, February 13, in prepara tion for the annual youth legisla ture to be held in Salem in April Probation Given Youth A Klamath Falls youth convict ed of using a car without consent was placed on three years proba tion Thursday on condition he move to his grandparents home in Illinois.

Two brothers arrived who had not been invited. One youth took a shot at them with a shotgun to scare them off and beat on their car with a club. Numerous fights broke out, all between the "ins" and the "outs" those who had not been invited or who had not brought liquor. One youth was hit by a car. Some youngsters who thought the party was going to be a sedate barbecue saw what was going on and fled. Anywhere from four to 14 cases of beer and several bottles of whis ky were at hand. One youth be came so intoxicated he "passed out on his feet. Another youth fell off the cabin roof and lay on the ground "quite a while" before moving. The party grew progressively wilder. The shotgun apparently came into frequent use. A big can had been placed in the room. It Had been Hit by at least one charge of shot. Officers found a spot on the roof damaged by a shotgun blast. Furniture and beer cans began to fly through windows and around the room.. When Dave Toltori discovered the damage December 18, he called the sheriff's department. Deputies in taking stock of contents, at first thought numerous items were stol en. They were later found outside the building buried in snow. An inventory of damage showed a big picture window was broken and its casing torn out. A daven port, screen door and mattress had been thrown out and torn up. Win dows in three doors in one room were broken out and the doors oth erwise damaged. Four large win dows in the main room were brok en. Two doors and a window in a smaller room were mutilated. An oil stove had been overturned and damaged. An iron bed was found outside where it was pushed out a win dow, along with a water tank. An iron stove, two cupboards two tables and a bench were found heaped in a corner badly broken up. Two privies had been tipped and a door knocked out of a near by building. The front door had been torn off the main building and officers found a pile of half-burned paper around an overturned stove. They wonder why the building didn't burn. Damage is estimated at $2,000. A break in the case came earlv this month. An informant gave city Patrolman Floyd ' Pierce certain information, Pierce notified the sheriff's office. Deputy Del Sum mers asked assistance from Ray Howard, city juvenile officer. They quickly rounded up numerous sus pects, and had completed most of the investigation by Thursday. The officers said a report would be turned over to county juvenile officers who will decide how to deal with others involved in the case.

Before accepting the superintend- ency, Howe spent a year and a half as secondary supervisor for the Oregon Department of Educa tion, and before that was principal of Henley High School. Among changes that have taken place in the district during his tenure were addition of classrooms to handle 2,000 pupils and con struction of several new school buildings. He indicated that he probably will not retire. But he is undecid ed about a future tack. One possible full-time occupation would be operating his 160-acre ranch in the Pine Grove area.
