Attorney Acquitted Of Rigging I WASHINGTON' (AP - Acquit tal of Thurman A. Whiteside , raised questions today whether the government will press related I charges against former FCC Commissioner Richard A. Mack. A Justice Department decision on that point will be delayed at least for several days, officials said. Whiteside, a Miami attorney, was found innocent by a federal court jury Thursday on both counts of an indictment against . him. One count charged that he and Mack had conspired to rig the award of a Miami Channel 10 tele vision permit in favor of Public Service Television Inc., a Nation al Airlines subsidiary. The other charged that Whiteside corruptly had influenced Mack's vote as a Federal Communications Commis sioner. I Mack and Whiteside were tried together last year, but the trial ended in a hung jury. Whiteside 'was tried separately this month 'because Mack is ill in a Florida hospital. Oliver Dibble, the chief govern 'ment attorney in the Whiteside trial, told a reporter there wasn't much point in pressing the con spiracy count against Mack after Mack's alleged coconspirator had been found innocent. Dibble said higher Justice De partment officials would make the decision whether to proceed against Mack on a second count against him. This charges that he corruptly influenced the proper ad ministration of law by receiving money from Whiteside in consid eration of which he voted for public service. In the trial which ended Thurs day, the government contended that Whiteside gave Mack money to influence him to vote for Pub lic Service. Whiteside contended that over many years he had given and lent money to Mack, a long time close friend. He said that the money that passed between them during the time Mack was on the FCC had no more significance than his previous loans. Whiteside also said Mack had repaid most of the loans.

Hatfield Challenged SALEM (AP Atty. Gen. Rob ert Y'. Thornton today challenged; Gov. Mark Hatfield to a public debate of Hatfield's charges that Thornton is incompetent. Hatfield declined, but said he is sure mormon s itcpuuucan op ponent, state Sen. Carl Francis, would be happy to debate. In a letter to the governor, Thornton said Hatfield has been "carrying on a systematic smear campaign" against Thornton and other Democratic candidates. Hatfield issued a statement that "This grandstand play is an at tempt to divert attention from his miserable record in office, but it will not fool the voters come No vember 8." Thornton wrote (hat the gover nor's "irresponsible charges against this office are refuted by the record." He added that what the governor has said "impugns the professional competence of the 73 career attorneys" on his staff. The governor replied that "it is disgusting to watch the attorney general's verbal gymnastics as he tries to transfer the blame for his political finagling to his fine staff."

Licenses Cancelled PORTLAND (AP) The Oregon Liquor Control Commission can celled Wednesday the liquor li censes of six places at which food sales did not equal 25 per cent of the business. The cancellations are the first under a regulation adopted last May and are effective Oct. 31. Two of the bars are in the Coos Bay area town of Empire, two in Portland and one each in The Dalles and Nyssa. Also cancelled was the license of McFarlane's Market in Salem, accused by the commission of sell ing beer to a minor while its li cense was suspended. A hearing was scheduled today on reports that the food sales of 10 other bars were less than 25 per cent of their business. They include the Sahara Club in Eu gene, three places in Medford, fh.-oA In Dj(,-ll...,J nA ..L i The Dalles, Coquille and Astoria. The Oregon Restaurant and Beverage Association has indicat ed it eventually will attack legal ity of the food regulation in the courts. No action was taken by the com mission on a request by beer tav lerns that their closing hour be extended from the present 1 a.m. to 2:30 a.m. Another round of greetings was a certainly al a morning confer ence the President arranged with representatives of 15 African na tions aim lyprus, alt newly m- dependent and all recently admit ted to United Nations mem bership. ! During the afternoon the Pres ident and Mrs. Eisenhower plan to travel to their farm at Gettysburg. Pa., for a family observance of his birth anniversary. On hand for dinner there will be his four grandchildren and their parents, Lt. Col. and Mrs. John Eisen hower. On Monday Eisenhower, who has traveled hundreds of thou sands of miles in this country and abroad as President, will be off on another long lour a nine-day. 6,728-mile trip will lake him coast to coast. Eisenhower became the oldest man ever to serve as president 11 days ago. on Oct. 3. At that time he broke a record which had been held by another old soldier. Andrew Jackson, who was 6!) years, 11 months and 19 days old when he completed his term as president. The President turned to base ball jargon when he was asked at a recent news conference how he managed to maintain such appar ent good health after a heart at tack, surgery for ileitis and a minor stroke since 1!55. and de spite the burdens of the presi dency. "I believe it's a tradition In baseball," Eisenhower laughed, "that when a pitcher has a no hitter going, no one reminds him of it." Now, in the sense of having reached three score and 10 years, Eisenhower has his no-bitter in the bag. And he seems more full of zest and bounce than many a younger man. Many White House visitors re mark these days that the Presi dent seems to be as chipper as they have ever seen him. They also report what is generally ob viousthat he is looking forward to retirement to private life Jan. 20 after nearly a half century of service to the nation. He knows, all the time, just how many more months, weeks and days he has in office. It also Is true, however, that Eisenhower has come to enjoy the presidency despite the many frustrations and the change to the role of private citizen won't be easy for him. Meanwhile, his routine now adays is much the same as it was before his illnesses, except for mid-day rest which the doctors prescribed after his heart attack. Ordinarily he is at his White House desk by 8 a. m and back until about 6 p. m. after a break of about 90 minutes or so at lunch time. The afternoon routine of business still is broken, how ever, as often as the President can slip away in good weather for a round of golf.
