NEW YORK (UP1) Actress
Diana Barrymore died of the
combined effects of alcohol and
ulceplng pills, a medical exam

Miss Barrymore, who was found
dead in her apartment Jan. 25,
had "a larjje amount" of alcohol
and "small amounts" of barbi
turates in her system, Dr. Milton
Helpcrn reported.
The 38-year-old actress, daugh
ter of the late John Barrymore,
had been succeeding in making
something of her career and had
not been drinking for a couple of
years prior to her death.
But the niiiht before she was
found dead, friends said she had
started lo drink again recently.
Sleeping pills were found on her
bedside table.

In recent weeks the Klamath
Basin Golden Age Club, a group
comprised of 5ft-ycar-olds and over,
has been meeting once a week,
gelling acquainted, entertaining
hcmsclves and planning tor lu-
ture projects ana acimucs.
Groups such as this one do more
than just keep these people occupied.
Thev attack a faulty and preval
ent altitude that says, "When peo
ple reach an ace arbitrarily Desig
nated as 'old,' they are ready for
the 'scrap heap.' " Such attitudes
affect older people in that they
becin to believe it themselves. Oth
ers are extremely conscious of the
younger generation's not too subtle
attempts to push them aside. One
lady resident of a Midwestern
Home for the Aged." when aked
whether or not she liked her new
rocking chair, replied. "Oh ves.
I like it fine. I'm rocking myself
lo death in it."
Mental depression, caused by
loneliness, lack of anything to do
and self pity, is the current ene
my of oldsters. This is where the
Golden Age clubs do their work.
Accep;ance. recreation, and social
relationships found in these
groups enhance a steady recovery
Irom the fear, frustration and the
chronic loneliness of aging. Personal-
appearance improves, men
ial and even physical vitality is increased.
Theoretically, the later years
hould be a time when a person
should enjoy life to its fullest.
Maturity has. in turn, led to humil
ity. Frustration and workday wor
ries associated with job responsi
bilities diminish. Knowledge gained
through experience is on file for
ready reference. All this is at the
command of age. It is strange that
we relegate old age to the side
lines, but traditionally conlcr the
responsibilities of high level pol
icy making and statesmanship to
people over 50 years of age. Senil
ity, in the main, is the product of
an inactive mind.
Golden Ace clubs are becoming
a prominent part of the national
scene, as they are in nations such
as Australia, Canada, England
Ireland, New Zealand, Belgium
Holland, Norway, Austria and Is
rael. In the United Slates more
necnle are living to older ages
and attempts to deal with aging

KLAMATH COUNTY CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
c
It was "Bos" Bosworth, Copco
vice president, who, in a speech
before the newly-formed Chiloquin
Chamber of Commerce, defined a
C of C as a group of citizens of
any community banded together
for purely selfish purposes. And.
as long as you explain, as "Bos"
did, that the selfish purposes also
happen to be in the best interests
of the community as a whole, the
definition is an apt one.
However, not all actions taken by
a chamber of commerce can be
construed as selfish, and a move
made by the Klamath County
Chamber last week is a case in
point. Acting in concert with the
city of Klamath Falls, as it has
innumerable times in tin? past on
aviation matters, the chamber List
week sent a resolulion to the Civil
Aeronautics Board urging the
board to grant permanent certifi
cation to bo:h Tan American World
Airways and Northwest Airlines m
the rout from Portland-Seaf.ie to
the state of Hawaii. There's rsvs-
ton: U that there is a need for
competitive air carrier freight and
nassenoer sen ice for Ihe quick
flow of trade and commerce be
tween the Hawaiian Islands and
the Pacific Northwest: 121 that
the ranidlv exuanding population
and economy of the Taeific North
west make such service all the
more necessary: and 13' that
because only Pan American has
jet service on the route at the
present time, certifying only North
west Airlines would result in in
terruption of jet service with an
attendant detrimental effect on the
use of air service to Hawaii from
ihe Pacific Northwest.

Long Fight
Against Reds
Has Setback
WASHINGTON VPI - The
Justice Department's long court
battle against the U.S. Communist
Party was set back a notch Satur
day by Supreme Court postpone
ment of important constitutional
decisions until next term.
'In a surprise ruling, the court
late Friday lumped together three
lu rnntmiutist cases and set
them for argument next Oct. 10
Justice Tom C. Clark, attorney
seneral under President Truman,
emphatically disagreed with the
aciion. He said two of the cases
had been in the courts for years
and all three should be decided
without further delay.
The rulinz came as a surprise
because the high court recessed
at its last session Jan. 25 until
Feb. 23. Apparently the nine jus
tices met at a special conference
tn consider the matter,
On of the cases, now more
than nine years old, would de
termine whether tho Communist
Party had to register with the
attorney general under the 1950
Internal Security Act. The party
appealed the issue to the high
court once before.
The other two cases, originally
scheduled to be argued Feb. 23,
challenge the constitutionality of
the "membership clause ol the
1M0 Smith Anti-Communist Act.
The appeals were brought by Ju
nius Irving Scales, rormer party
leader in the Carolinas, and John
Francis Nolo, convicted under the
Smith Act in Buffalo, N.Y., in
1956.
The disputed clause makes it a
crime to be a memoer m an
organization dedicated to the vio
lent overthrow of the government
if the member Is aware of this
purpose.
The court said Friday the Noto
Scales cases had legal and consti
tutional facets which overlapped
the Communist Party registration
case, and therefore all three
should be heard together. It said
there wasn't enough time to do
that before the end of the current
term' in June.
Before End Of Decade,

Officials say nuclear rockets will

International that the first nu
clear test rocket will soar into
space less than 10 years from

nnveloDment of a nuclear
rocket is a joint NASA-AEC proj

oulsion expert, told Congress re
cently why scientists believe man
must invoke the atom's power for
space exploration.
Both chemical ana nuciudt
ockets thrust themselves upward
asainst the pull of gravity by
forcing a propellant in the oppo
site direction through a jet nozzle.
In the case of chemical rockets,
the propellant is hot gas produced
by burning fuels.
In the case of a nuclear rocket,
the propellant would be hydrogen
gas heated in an atomic reactor.
A rocket's performing ability is
evaluated by its "specific im
pulse." Finger said "specific im
pulses up to approximately 450
pounds of thrust per pound of gas
are possible. .

LOS ANGELES tl'Pl) A re
morsefttl bandit Monday returned
every cent of the $4,000 he stole
from the First Western Bank Fri
day by threatening the family of
teller.
'1 am returning your money
took Friday," said a note mailed
with the money. "I never did this
belnrc. I'm sorry for the trouble
t have caused and also sorry to
have troubled the teller and his
family."
Bernard Finch had jurors in tears
and himself near collapse when
he described the last words of
his fatally wounded wife.
"Take care of the kids," she
said, according to Finch.
The murder trial of the 42-year-
old surgeon and his mistress
Carole- Tregoff, 23, displayed the
impact of tensest emotion late
riday when Finch finally told ot
Ihe death of Barbara Jean uncn
in West Covina, Calif., last
Inly 18.
Finch at one time rocked sud
denly back in the witness chair
md. for a moment, spectators
thought he had fainted. He came
slowly back to equilibrium and
crying, went on with his story,
A few minutes earlier he had
been so athletic that jurors shrank
back as he rcenacted the wild
fight for Ihe pistol which, he said
Barbara first drew.
But the climax came when he
described seeing his wife fall on
the lawn of his father's home. He
ran to her side and knelt down
beside her. He said her leg was
curled so peculiarly he thought
she had broken it.
His dialogue with Cooper then
went in part:
Q. What did you do?
A. 1 went running around the
side of her and I knelt down by
her , . . and started to feel over
toward her leg and shall 1 tell
you what I said?
. Yes.
A. I said, "what happened Bar
bara? Where are you hurt?" And
she said: "Shot in chest." 1 was
amazed. I just couldn't
q. Then what did you say or
do?
A. I just didn't do anything for
a second ana men ana men t
I said' to Barbara, "Barbara, just
slay real quiet. Don't move
thing. Don't move your arms or
legs. Just lay real quiet. I've got
to get an ambulance for you and
get you to the hospital.
Q. What did you then do?
A. I stood up and took about
two steps toward dad's breakfast
room and Barbara said, "wait."
q. Did you wait?
A. I came back and knelt down
by her head.
q. Did you do anything or did
she say anything to you at that
time?
A. Well, she sort of . . . moved
her arm like this and I thought
sne wanted me to take her hand
and so I reached down and took
her hand. 1 said "what is it
Barb?" And she just sort of
opened her mouth a couple of
times like she was going to say
something but she Midn't. Then
she spoke . . .
q. What did she say.
A. She said, "I'm sorry. 1
should have listened."
q. What else did she say or
wnat did you say?
A. I said. "I've got to get you
to the hospital." She said, "don't
leave me." And I started to cry
and then alter a pause, well, she
said, "takt cart of the kids," and
Q. Did you feel her pulse?
A. Yes. I checked her pulse
right away. I reached down ana

Queen Sees
Yank Comic
LONDON (UPI) Queen Eliza
beth II, who is expecting her third
baby this month, slipped out of
Buckingham Palace Thursday
night to catch an American s dog
act.
The Queen laughed heartily for
45 minutes while watching Bob
Williams of Malibu, Calif., put his
dogs through their comedy routine
at a parly at Earl Mountbatten's
town house.
Veteran palace observers said
they were astounded the Queen
would venture from Buckingham
Palace so soon before the birth
of her baby, expected around Feb.
14. She has remained in the pal
ace since her return from Sand
ringham House after the holidays.
Williams said the Queen looked
"beautiful, magnificent."
"She laughed heartily through
out the act and then dazzled me
in conversation later," he said
Williams' act features a spaniel
named Louis and a terrier named
Spunky which yawn and ignore
their master's commands, appeals
and "threats."

Probe Slated
In 'Death'
Of Woman
STOCKTON, Calif. (UPD-San
Joaquin County authorities said
today they planned to investigate
the "very unusual set of circum
stances" in the case of a heavily
insured woman who turned up
aiive more than one month after
her husband reported her
drowned.
Mrs. Mabel L. Thompson, 26,
of Santee, Calif., walked into a
taxicab office in Sacramento
Wednesday and said she had just
remembered who she was.
Her husband, Thomas Thomp
son, a 39-year-old contractor who
was in financial difficulties in a
San Diego County housing devel
opment, reported that his wife ap
parently drowned when their Jeep
plunged into a slough on the night
of Dec. 28.
Officers found the Jeep under
water, a drowned dog tied in it
but no trace of Mrs. Thompson,
They issued a missing persons
bulletin for her Monday, after
learning that Thompson took out
an $89,700 insurance policy on his
wife and one for $90,000 on him
self last May.
These policies were put up as
collateral to enable Thompson to
build four homes and three du
nlexes near San Diego. A bank
had taken action "to repossess the
buildings when Thompson had dif
ficulty selling them.
But once repossession was ac
complished, officers said, Thomp
son would be the beneficiary of
his wife's insurance.
Mrs. Thompson told investiga
tors Wednesday she stepped on
the gas instead of the brake in the
Jeep and remembered going into
Ihe water. But she said she re
membered nothing else unti
Wednesday morning when she
found herself walking the streets
in Sacramento.
Thompson said he got free of
the Jeep and swam to the surface
of the slough, but could not- lo
cate his wife although he dived
repeatedly.
The Thompsons were released
after questioning. They said they
planned to go to nearby San Jose
and then return to San Diego in
a few days.

Zipper, 37, is the only man in a
household of nine women his
wife and their eight daughters.
You might suspect he gets lit
tle or no chance to say a word
around home. Not so, he'll tell
you without hesitation.
"When I got something to say,
say it," he boldly confides. "But
then I guess I don't talk much
anyhow."
Zipper, a Dallas carpenter-con
tractor, and his wife, 35, came to
public attention last week when
the latest addition to their family
arrived.
"I heard the doctor talking to
nurse as they came out of the
delivery room.," related Zipper.
He told her, 'I'm not gonna tell
him you'll have to.' "
It was no surprise to learn his
wife of 16 years had borne another
daughter and still no son. Nor
was he dismayed.
"Like everybody else," admit
ted Zipper, "we wanted a boy.
But we're happy to take what the

kind of pulling, for her to have a
boy.
But when she comes from the
delivery room, I always ask first
how she is. Then I ask what the
baby is."
Six-day-old Peggy Jean is the
latest to join their all-girl brood
The others are Dorothy Ann. 15;
Sandra Lee, 13; Patricia Carol,
10; Judy Elaine, 7; Connie Dar.
lene, 3; Cindy Marie, 2, and Shir
ley Lynn, 1.
What's it like to live around so
many womenfolk?
"I don't know what it's like
I've never lived any other way,"
said Zipper matter - of - factly
We're well satisfied. It's a pleas
ure to have all the girls around
one doing this, one doing that and
another something else."
uoes tnat mean he escapes
many of the chores falling to a
modern husband, like drying the
dishes or changing the baby's
diaper?
No, I do just about a little bit
of everything," replied Zipper,
The girls do lots of work, of
course but kids are kids, you
know."
Looking ahead a bit, aren't he
and his wife a little uneasy over
a prospective traffic jam when all
their daughters' boy friends came
calling?
"Well, the boys are no trouble
yet, at least.
"But all the girls do tie up the
phone once m a while. When it
used to ring. I'd know it was for
my wife or me. Now I don't even
answer.
With nuclear rockets, however'
it may be possible to ohiaii
1,000 pounds of thrust per mm
of hydrogen," he said.
The higher the specific imoul..
the greater the load that can bj
llltea Dy a given weignt of pro,
pellant. So ' nuclear rockelj
Finger said, should be able t
things "that are beyond the caj.
bility of the largest all-chemica
rockets mat are Deing studied."
Finger said a chemical rocket
;apable of putting 150,000 pound!
nto orbit would have to hava
three and probably four stagei,
A nuclear rocket could do thi
same job with one stage.
Finger said the first nuclear
rocket . may be tested with th
help of a two-stage Saturn. Thi
Saturn is the chemically-fueled
super rocket wnose booster stage
Is expected to develop 1,500,000
pounds ot thrust. The first flight
test ot tne Saturn Dooster is ex
pected next year.
A Saturn with an added stau
may be used to boost a nuclear
rocket into an orbit around the
earth. The rocket's atomic reactor
would be turned on only after it
was in orbit.
However, some AEC experts be
lieve the first flight test may be
made without the help of a chem
ical rocket. As they see it, the
pioneer nuclear rocket would take
off under its own power. It would
be a high-altitude, up-and-down
flight with the rocket burning up
like a meteor as it re-entered the
atmosphere.
The reactor in such a test
would operate at a furiously high
rate but for only a matter ol
minutes. In such a brief period,
according to experts, not enough
radioactive fission products would
be created to constitute a fallout
hazard.
