PAGE EIGHT HERALD AND NEWS, Klamath Falls. Ore. Monday, October 17, 1960 Bagel Shop Closes Doors Ending An 'Era' In SF SAN FRANCISCO UPI - The! ragged remainder of San Fran cisco's beatnik colony drained off the last keg of beer at the Co Existence Bagel Shop last week and the old headquarters of the unwashed set closed forever. The Bagel Shop, its walls lay ered with six years of murals pro testing everything from the H bomb to police surveillance, was the last of the dark outposts on upper Grant Avenue which ca tered to uninhibited misery. Only a handful of sentimental ists of the original colony of ar tists, poets and writers who inhab ited the Bagel Shop attended the wake. And it had all the false cheerfulness of whistling past a graveyard. The wake lasted three nijjhts, as long as there was enough profit to buy another keg of beer, and long after the coffee and pas trami sandwiches were gone. The customers put on a brave show of impromptu speeches, set mons, snatches of composed-on- hundreds of restless, jobless and untalented youths into the North Beach area to grow beards and don sandals in an effort to imi tate, hut who only succeeded in being caricatures. All Over As they tossed off the last drops of beer they began to sing "Auld Lang Syne." "You'U have to make less ise." 01 policeman And it was all over. The Bagel Shop's owner, Jay Hoppe, packed the remaining gear in a truck, locked up and left town. "I'm tired of three years of being attacked," he said. "I'm tired of having to deal with a sick city administration and a psychopathic police department. I'm tired of San Francisco and never want to see it again The scene was a far cry from the Bagel Shop's 1957-59 heyday when the "elite" of West Coast : They'll Do It Every Time By Jimmy Hatlo When the boys were euilding their duck blind (pre-seasonj THE SKY WAS DARK WITH UUCKS Well, the ducks are legal now-also there's not one within fifty kilometers Committee Requests Drunk Driver Tests the-soot poetry and some mean Bohemians rendezvoused to com- piano playing bacKea By sweat soggy bongos and a gutty cornet. But it wasn't real anymore. The Bagel Shop was the last victim pare notes and agree in hipster talk that the world was square. At the height of the publicity, the Bagel Shop was crowded with of publicity and the new fashionircporlcrs, photographers, college of nonconformity which poured, professors, sociologists, psycholo gists, narcotics, agents, plain domes aciectives ana ordinary tourists all out to inspect the new Beat Generation. The Bohemians couldn't stand the strain of all those eyes. Acme of Coverage Perhaps the acme of Bohemian coverage came one night late in 1958 when a visiting Canadian newsman rushed into the Bagel Shop and asked Eric "Big Dad dy" Nord if he knew someone with a death wish. 'I have interviewed a maniac- depressive and a paranoic. But I must have a good death wish to round out my story," he pleaded. 'Know just the chick for you," the six-foot-six, self-proclaimed king of the beatniks, answered. He gave the reporter directions. The reporter was back in less UC Regents 0!C Budget BERKELEY (UPD-The Uni versity of California regents ap proved a $183 million budget Fri day for the 1961-62 fiscal year, and school officials reported en rollment on the school's seven campuses is at an alltime high. Vice President H. R. Wellman said enrollment totals 49,179, and cracks the 48,943 record set in 1948, the peak year of enrollment of veterans returning from World War II. Of the $183,805,000 budget ap proved by the regents, $130 mil lion would come from state taxes and the rest from student fees, federal grants and other sources. The budget, which now goes to the slate Legislature' for approval, represents a 12 per cent increase over this year. 1 Wellman said the added enroll ment requires an increase of $11, 807,000 over the current budget simply to continue present programs. Another $4,718,000 is sought for development of new programs, in eluding $1.8 million for group life and health insurance for all em ployes. The regents also budgeted $220,000 to plan new campuses. Wellman said the record enroll ment represented a 9.6 increase over last fall and a total increase of 4,301 students. The enrollment totals by cam pus with per cent of gain over 1959 are: Berkeley 21,860 ( 9.7 per cent); Los Angeles 17.331 (4.3); Santa Barbara 3,511 (22.0); Davis 2,883 (18.7); San Francisco Medical Center 1,852 (11.6); Riverside 1,635 (29.1), and La Jolla 107 (143.2). than an hour, smiling happily. "I found her," he said. "But I was almost loo late." Frnm 1A59 nn it was n muinr traveling to other places in Ihoi world, or moving their trade to quiet bars with unimaginative' names, leaving the Bagel Shop as a meeting place for a frantic remnant who couldn't seem to find anything to do in any worlds and who sought a protection in untalented numbers alone. Grant Avenue has come full cir cle and the ginlet?-cycd police and the gawking tourists are left to watch each other. But at least no squares will Iroop into the Bngcl Shop and ask for a bagel. It never did slock them. SALEM (AP) An interim com-! mittce says the state should have the power to give intoxication tests to anyone accused of drunken driving. The Legislative Interim Com mittee on Highways made the recommendation Friday, and said intoxication causes from 20 to 40 per cent ol uregon s nignway deaths. Such tests now can be admin istered only with the written con sent of the motorist. Under the law proposed in the committee's report, "any person using the highways of Oregon being arrested for drunken driving will be deemed to have impliedly consented to either a blood, urine, breath or saliva test to determine intoxication." The committee, of which Sen. Anthony Yturri, R-Ontario, is chairman, also urged additional crackdowns on drunken drivers. Drunk driving is a misdemeanor offense in Oregon and the law does not permit arrest by "probable cause" for misdemeanors. The offense now must be witnessed by the arresting person. The committee would change this law and allow a person ar rested for drunken driving when there is "reasonable grounds to believe the person intoxicated while driving." In other recommendations, the committee would have a maxi mum speed limit set at 70 miles an hour for any highway. The committee's report said speeds designated now on high ways are merely ' "suggested speeds." A "basic rule" now ap plies which means that a driver must operate his vehicle in a "reasonable manner in light of all attendant conditions." The committee would have the state Speed Control Board fix speeds on various roads and have the basic rule apply on all speeds under maximum. The committee also recom mended that the state require reflcctorizcd license plates by April 1, 1963. The state presently pays 35; cents a pair for license plates. The least expensive refloctorized i plate considered by the commit tee would cost 30 cents a pair more, the most expensive 60 cents more. The committee did not recom mend whether the state or the plate buyers should pay the addi tional cost. IZVESTIA CHARGES MOSCOW (UPI) The govern ment newspaper Izvestia charged Thursday that the Japanese gov ernment was indirectly responsible for the assassination of Socialist leader Inejiro Asanuma. It blamed his stabbing on "the Japanese Fascists and those who have given them a free hand, the ruling circles of Japan." The Price Of Haircut Is Problem BIRMINGHAM. Ala. (AP)- Whether or not Birmingham's male population will grow shaggy around the ears was a question today which nobody particularly a barber wants to answer. It started when barber-shin oo- crators voted Oct. 3 not to in crease the price of haircuts two bits. But the barbers later voted In hike the price two bits and with out a shave, either. That would make m-ices tnrlav either $1.50 or $1.75, depending on which viewpoint you accept. It even bronchi about the dos- sibility of the baibershops being closed, although nobody voiced tins possibility officially. C. G. Daniel, secretary-treasur er of the Journeymen Barbers Local 83, says in no uncertain terms that the union voted In raise prices and that is that. O. C. Martin, president of the Association Master Barbers Chap ter 275, said members of his or ganization, the shoo owners, had agreed to leave prices as they were. "I guess (his could be whal makes some men lose their hair." said Martin. Daniel said: "This is all a mix- up. I am announcing that the price for haircuts will be $1.75 I hope I have made it clear to the press, the barbers and the general public." Martin said: "This is all kind of mixed up. We have agreed tnat the price will be $1.50. I am trying to make it plain to the newspapers and the general Dub- lie." Year Of College Costs About 57,500 ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP)-One year of college education for a boy or girl costs an average of $1,500 out of pocket and although more than half of the nation's col lege students earn a part of their expenses, 21 per cent of parents find "real difficulty" in financing such educations. This is one of the significant findings of a University of Michi gan survey on "How People Pay for College." Conducted by the university's survey research center for the U. S. Office of Education, the study examines the effect of col lege expenses on a family-by-family basis. The authors of the study, John B. Lansing, Thomas Lorimer and Chikashi Moriguchi, compiled their findings from interviews with 2.700 families across the United States. The results, they say, reveal that now, more than ever before, American parents are counting on sending their children to college and are doing some hard-headed financial planning to get them there. Only one family in 10, the sur vey shows, expects financial aid from inheritances, gifts or schol arships, and four out of five ex pect the student to help pay his way with a summer or part-time iob- It's an Increasingly MmmonirQjJlI n,l n.n In enma Qlrtlllftnai TTlPm-i 1 , W ber of the family usually the 'mother to go to work to help support the student, I 2 DAT Service KkTArHROtlH J, 70 MAM II mU TOWN A COUMTIt Under New Ownership!
