It's very embarrassing when 1 go to pick her up because her mother and father don't speak English very well and they just sit there and look at me.

Tex. (AP)-The So viet Union may have sent at least one astronaut to a vibrating death in an attempt to launch a man into space, the Air Force's chief flight surgeon said Monday. The possibility ot the soviet astronaut burning up as he re entered the atmosphere was not as great as the possibility of him vibrating to death, Brig. Gen Don Fllckinger told the annual meeting of the American Astro- nautical Society. Flickingcr said the primary dif ficulty in bringing the Soviet spacemen back to earlh lies in controlling the stability of the huge space vehicle. i KltmsKi pant.

FLITCRAKT Sunday, Jan. 8, started the ac Uvities at the capital prior to the opening of the legislature. On this day, my wile and. I attended the B"""' V"" " ' lators. This function was well at tended and afforded many of us our first opportunity to become acquainted. I spent the first week of the session in caucus, orientation, committee meetings and studying bills. Organization of the House went smoothly and according to pre-scs-sion predictions until adoption of rules. An attempt was made to change the necessary majority from two-thirds (40) to a consti tutional majority (31) for the re moval of bills from committee. Since bills are passed to become law by a constitutional majority, I felt that this move was logical. However, the change would rule out much of the political maneuv ering and for tills reason It failed to pass. An interesting sidelight gathered from the oldtimcrs Is that the rule making it virtually Impossible to remove bills from committee was inaugurated under a Republican House majority. I was very happy to receive an appointment to the Taxation Com mittee. This Is considered to be a powerful committee second only to ways and means, and I am sure it will prove to be extreme ly busy.

The first to apiear was Isaac Leonard Skidmorc, 62, a beekeep er. He was arraigned for a sec ond charge of contributing to de linquency of a minor filed by Sis kiyou County District Attorney Al bcrt H. Newton Jr. The, charge Involves an U-ycar- old Mount Hebron girl, said New ton. Skidmore .was arrested last month by sheriff's deputies after an investigation of some length. He was arraigned recently on another contributing charge that one involving a 10-year-old girl, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Mar land F. Kusick, whose preliminary hearings followed simultaneously. Skidmore's preliminary hearing followed arraignment. The older girl gave testimony that she had been Skidmore s sexual victim. Harry Hammond, Yrcka attor ney, defended Skidmore. Bail was continued at $10,000 and Skidmorc was remanded to the sheriff and jailed in lieu of it. Skidmore was bound over to the county superior court. Hearings of contributing charges filed by Newion against Kusick, and his wife, Elsie, involved their young daughter. Newton called May Morgan, 20, Klamath Falls, as a witness. She Identified herself as the stepdaughter of Kusick and the daughter of Mrs. Kusick. She testified that Ihe Ktislcks knew about Skidmore's activities with the girl, her half sister, and Burglary Cinic SALEM (AP)-An anti-burglary clinic will be presented Thursday evening as part of the state Crimejcu 0j ba(j I'revcnuon tomeience, Any. uen. Robert Y. Thornton said today. The clinic, to be 'attended by police and district attorneys, will be conducted by an official of a NEWS, Klamath Falls, OregOB Appointment Committee lations indicating that many pos sible changes are in the hopper. The most mtroversial measure before the House was Senate joint resolution 1 regarding legislative expenses. This measure was apt proved by the House 42 to 18. If the voters had approved the salary raise at the last general election, I feel that the question of legislative expenses would not have appeared at this time. Al though I have realized for sev eral years that the Oregon legis lator's salary is inadequate, I, as a representative of the people in my area, did not feel that I could. in good failh, vote in favor of this measure and raise my pay. Cer tainly, the legislator needs more than $600 a year to cover the ex penses incurred by his job, but I would like to see Ihe approval come from the people. The Republicans stole the march on their Democratic colleagues by introducing a congratulatory reso lution extending best wishes to John F. Kennedy and Lyndon B. Johnson. Speaker Duncan's, only remark was "the majority party says louche. All bills will be sent to the Klamath County Library, Klamath County Court, Klamath County Chamber of Commerce and the Herald and News. Any of thcsi agencies will allow you to study these hills. If anyone wishes to receive bills pertaining to a cer tain field, let me know and I will nave them sent to vou. encouraged them, while Ihe Ku sicks were living in Skidmore's residence last year. A motion by Assistant County Public Defonder Charles Hurley to have the testimony stricken from the record was denied by Judge Les Chase. A second witness was the young ster and a third, Skidmore, him self. Skidmore testified that in Juno, 1959, Kusick told him to "help yourself lo the girl" in pres ence of Mrs. Kusick, who did not object. Hurley objected to the testimo ny on grounds that Skidmore was pound over to the superior court, therefore possibly possessing a definite bias. Judge Chase bound both Kusicks over to superior' court and contirt ucd bail at $5,000 each. They were remanded to the sheriff and jailed in lieu of bail. The fourth hearing was for Richard J. Morgan, 22, Mount He bron, charged with child molesta tion. Hurley , received permission from the court to withdraw from Morgan's defense on grounds he is also defending Morgan's moth cr and stepfather, the Kusicks Judge Chase appointed Hammond to defend Morgan. During the hearing, Newton called as a witness the Kusicks 10-year-old daughter, the same girl who testified earlier. She stated (hat Morgan, her half brother, had molested her sexual ly several times during 1959. She said she tried to fight him off but it didn t do no good. When Hammond asked her if offi cers-had told her what to say she replied, "No. They told me to tell the truth." A sheriff's deputy said a state ment by Morgan has been record ed on tape at the county jail, in which Morgan admitted t h e charge but denied attempting to rape her. Morgan was bound over to the superior court and bail was con tinued at $5,000. He was jailed in Newspaper SPOT ADS are Inexpensive Wedaesday, Jaauary II, 1M1I! jSportscaster To Be Speaker At JC Banquet Johnny Carpenter, director of sports and public events for KOIN Television, Portland, considered by many to be the most popular sportscaster in the Pacific North west, will speak during the annual Klamath Junior Chamber of Com merce Distinguished , Service Award banquet Thursday, Jan. 26, at the Klamath Union High School cafeteria, beginning at 6:45 p.m. Tickets are available from any Jaycee for a nominal fee.

Near him was the body of his father, Thomas Lloyd Mason, 30, of Tacoma. "Daddy was awake for a little while," Michael said. "Then he went to sleep." Michael's cries led highway workers to the scene, 30 miles northwest of Aberdeen, on the isolated Quinault Indian Reserva tion. The smashed car was hidden from passing traffic. The State Patrol said the car must have left the road at high speed and rolled over several times as it plunged down a 20-foot bank near Taholah, a small Indian village. The car stopped upside-down, and Michael s ngnt loot was pinned under it. His father had been thrown through the windshield and also was pinned under the car. "The car was on top of his back," Mike said from his hospital bed in Aberdeen. "I tried to wake him up. I didn't know whether he was dead or not. But he wouldn't open his eyes." Officers estimated the accident happened before 11 p.m. Saturday while Mason and his son were returning to Tacoma from a visit with Mason's father, Harry Mason1 of Taholah.
