MestfUr fetal Tetal 16 12 14 1187 11 4 i 6 8 75 GRAINS A familiar face will be missing from Judge David R. Vanden- berg's, circuit courtroom when court convenes again Tuesday morning. Julian R. Abbott, who has been the Judge's bailiff for 4 years, is spending his final day in court today. Abbott, a young 65, will be suc ceeded by Fred H. Heilbronner, a retired Klamath Falls business man. Travel plans fill the im mediate future for Abbott and his wife of 36 years, Alice. They in tend to visit Southern California in January or February and are considering a jaunt to Europe during the summer. One of the Abbotts' children, Sister Alice Juliannc, is a nun in a San Diego convent and the other, Capt. Dean E. Abbott, is an Air Force intelligence officer. Mrs. Abbott is the former Alice Fenwick, who taught school at Al goma and Spring Lake. A thatch of white hair and- a pixyish, , twinkly-eycd smile are Abbott's trademarks, His cheer fulness is often a welcome relief to trial tonso lawyers and court visitors. He can recall one lime however, when his sunny outlook was-shattered:. . . "It was In, January, 1057. The judge and I were talking when wo heard a loud report! from ; the room below, us,; I ran. downstairs to the county court office and found that Fred Peterson, the wel fare board chairman, had been shot," Abbott recalled. "The only excitement in the past three years has been verbal battles between the lawyers" . i As bailiff,, it has been Abbott's job to see that court business is carried on in an orderly manner, He has tiled judicial decisions. called witnesses ' and supervised tne Juries in the courtroom. Abbott came into the bailiff position "cold." When he- heard of a vacancy in the court job, he went to Judge Vandenberg and ap plied. He assumed his duties in May, 1956. He has the distinction ot being the first bailiff in 20 years to walk off the job. The three previous bailiffs died Born in Salem on Aug. IS, 1895, Abbott moved with his family to Corvallis and then to Jackson ville, where his father opened a hotel. The wanderlust bug bit CHICAGO - Prev.

Copeland Lumber, Yard 66 Main COLUMBIA, S. C.,(AP)-A for- mer defense department employe has been charged' with stealing secret documents. Arthur Rogers Roddcy, 38. of Falls Church. Va., told newsmen he took the papers ''to take them to the National Security Council." He said after his arrest Thursday, "1 felt 1 was right and I still feel that way." The council is the top echelon of the department of defense. Rod dey was senior operations re search adviser for the weapons system evaluation group of the Institute of Defense Analysis. A newsman asked Roddcy at his arraignment if he felt the docu ments contained information he thought the council should have but that it had not been given. "I don't know what they knew, but 1 knew what 1 knew and want ed them to know It," he replied. He conceded he did not take the documents to the council. The Federal Bureau of Investi gation said the caso docs not in volve espionage. In Richmond, Va., however, U. S. Dist Ally. Joseph S. Bam bacus, who authorized filing of the charges, commented, "I plan to reconvene the federal grand jury in Alexandria (Va.) within the next 10 days and I will ask the grand jury to indict Roddey on espionage charges." He said some ol the documents are "so highly classilied that their mere existence, let alone their contents, are top secret." dey'S arrest said he made false statements about possession of documents when he left the job in August. . The FBI charged that Roddcy took a top secret tape recorder and approximately 200 documents. Roddcy said he had known 'since September that he was under in vestigation. He expressed relief that the charges wore no more severe and "actually are as indi cated to me previously." He was arraigned before U. S. Commissioner Henry W. Kirkland. There were two counts of theft of government property and three counts of fraud. He was held in lieu of $15,000 bond, pending removal to Virginia.
