o o o o SP Doesn't Need WP To Save $6.2 Million SAN FRANCISCO (UPI1 At torneys opposing Southern Pa. cific's bid (or control of Western Pacific argued Wednesday during. Interstate Commerce Commission Bank Sued For $50,000 A woman who claims that the First National Bank of Oregon wrongfully applied some' of her money in payment of an old loan has filed suit against the bank lor more than $50,000. The woman, Doris R. Duarte, said in her suit that she and her ex-husband, Ralph V. Richards, signed "what purported to be a promissory note" in 1953 at the South Sixth Street branch of the bank in Klamath Falls. In April of this year, Mrs. Du arte said she made a deposit at the Lakeview branch of the bank. The bank debited her account to ward payment of the note. Mrs. Duarte said, and five of her checks were subsequently returned for insufficient funds. The note, if any, is beyond the statute of limitations, Mrs. Du arte contends, and she is asking for $910.34 general damages (the value of the five checks! and $50,000 in special damages. Crippled Ship Goes 2850 MPH EDWARDS AIR FORCE BASE, Calif. (API Rocketing into dan gers future spacemen must con quer when they return to earth, an X15 pilot streaked 2,850 miles an hour today with his tiny ship deliberately crippled. Missing, (or the first time, was the rocket plane's big bottom fin an important aid in maintaining stability at high altitudes where the air is thin. Engineers had figured the X15 would be easier to handle in such an emergency if the big ventral fin were jettisoned. Air Force Maj.

Southern Pacific contends that stock control of Western Pacific is necessary to effect 18 consolida tions of wastefully duplicating fa cilities. Santa Fe, which also is seeking to take over WP, has pro posed similar projects to save $4.8 million. Calvin L. Rampton. o( the Utah Citizens Rate Association, won ad missions from several SP execu tives that each project would be feasible with Southern Pacific con trol. But they said under cross-ex amination. the two railroads have not been able to reach agreement because each side insisted on the best terms. William A. Jakele, Southern Pa cific general manager, said that one project has been the subject of sporadic negotiations since 1929 without result. But the SP witness es said consolidation disputes had never been submitted to arbitra tion by the ICC or any other such group. Earlier in the hearings, SP pres ident Donald J. Russell said em phatically that his firm had nev er considered arbitration by the ICC. A Western Pacific spokesman said his company also has reject ed possible arbitration. The ICC has never been request ed to settle consolidation disputes! in the past, but some attorneys thought it would have the power to do so if it wished and was asked. However, the ICC has arbitrated similar arguments when existing agreements expired and when disputing parties to the contract had sought the commission's help. The arbitration question was brought up by attorneys who urged that the Western Pacific be kept independent. They represent ed various state regulatory agen cies, labor associations and other groups. Southern Pacific witnesses, in other testimony, gave figures indi cating that a Southern Pacific vie. tory would abolish at least 572 jobs. But William D. Lamprecht, a vice president, said the job loss would occur over several years and would be absorbed by normal job attrition. v jo-S 'Get in, We'u gpg to m next wicket 'DENNISTHE MENACE" HhKAl-U AXD NEWS, Klamath Falls, Ore.

NEW YORK (API Belle Davis lias filed a million-dollar libel suit against Modern Screen magazine, charging an article ' in the May issue depicted her as an aging has-been actress with no future. The suit, against Dell Publish ing Co., came to light Wednesday when Dell moved in State Su preme Court to strike out por tions of the complaint, including those alleging maiice. Miss Davis, twice an Academy award winner, contended the article had conveyed the impres sion that she was "a pathetic, grotesque, ridiculous and eccen tric person who occupied herself by morosely ruminating about her past glories and by facing the future hopelessly and fearfully." The result, says Miss Davis in her suit, was to hold her up to public ridicule and contempt. Actually, Miss Davis contended, she is in constant demand by Broadway producers and Holly-, wood film companies.

Why do we hang this sign in our fireproof brewery? y Public Ortflnn Where there's smoke, there's furor. Nothing upsets our head brewmaster more than seeing someone smoking in the brew ery. He has nothinpoagainst smoking, mind you. In fact, he likes nothing better than a good cigar with his beer after dinner. Why No Smoking, then, especially in a building that's about as fireproof as a building can get? Well, it g&s back three generations to Fritz Sick, the first of his family to b?ew in this country. He believed that if smoke got into the beer during the brewing process, it would alter the flavor. (Ilo picked up that piece of information0 from some old-time, old-world brewmasters.) Therefore, he refused to allow one whiff of smoke any place near the vats. 0 Fritz Sick was right about smoke and its effecOSo, today, even with our modern brew ing equipment, we still follow the old rule: No Smoking. We've even gone so far as to build the power plant smoke stacks extra high so the smoke would drift harmlessly away. And if our personnel want to smoke, they go out sideto the downwind side of the brewery. So if you ever come to visit us (for our personalized tour) please put out cigarettes in tOe ash trays we provide. You'll have a better glass of beer for vour small sacrifice. Rainier Beer -3
