Ike' Notes Birthday 71 GETTYSBURG, Pa. (AP)-For mer President Dwight D. Eisen hower celebrates a quiet 71st birthday Saturday on his farm in Gettysburg. No special events were planned for the big day just some golf and a little bridge. He spent most of the time with old friends. Actually, the birthday celebra tion took place Friday night al the home of his son, Col. John Eisenhower, who lives on the southwest edge of the farm. For the party, Eisenhower wore a tuxedo while his wife wore a black chiffon dinner dress and al white fur stole a present from her husband several years ago. "Just like your old cadet days, isn't it?" one newsman quipped. The general replied, "Yes, but I didn't nave a car in those days "This is the very first time I've ever ridden with him at the wheel," Mrs. Eisenhower con fided. Eisenhower only recently received his driver's license. - The party consisted of a play put on by the Eisenhowers grand children and a birthday dinner prepared by their daughter-in-law, Barbara. David Eisenhower, 13, eldestl son of the John Eisenhowers, di rected the play. The actors were his sisters, Barbara Ann, lj, Su san Elaine, 9, and Mary Jean, 6. . Also planned was a family pic ture, but Barbara Ann vetoed that idea, claiming it wouldn't be becoming for her to be seen in her "stage" makeup. However, the former president did pose for news photographers. ' Asked how he felt about his 71st birthday, the general replied, ."I look forward to all my birthdays, I feel I am very fortunate to have so many birthdays. Eisenhower said he had been! flooded with birthday wishes. In fact, he still has to open some 800 cards. "We'll get to them," he said. Shot Misses Finance Man OREGON CITY (AP) Melvin Dinwiddie, Portland, told police Friday that he narrowly missed being shot by a man who forced him at gunpoint to drive through Oregon City. Dinwiddie, a representative of an auto finance company, said a bullet went through his pantleg as lie leaped from the automobile and ran. ' . Clackamas County Sheriff's dep uties took Milton Burnett, 31, Ore gon City, into custody Friday night in Salem. Police said Burnett had turned himself in to the state hospital. Dinwiddie said he had gone to Burnett's residence early Friday to repossess an automobile. He said a man answering Burnett's description stepped from the house and asked to be driven to a bank so he could get money to make his payments on the car. Dinwiddie said the man then pulled a gun and ordered him to start driving. Dinwiddie said he jumped from the vehicle after driving ior several minutes, and the man drove off. Ships Delay For 5 Days SeenResuI? Of Intertie PORTLAND (AP) A power intertie with California, with safe guards to protect Northwest cus tomers, was seen Friday by Bon neville Power Administrator! Charles Luce as a means of bring ing more tirm power to the North west. Luce mentioned the intertie lit a BPA Advisory Council meet ing in Portland after a prediction by Earl D. Ostrander. director of BPA administrators, that the sys tem may lose more than $15 mil lion in 1962. Federal officials said the BPA has been running behind for sev eral years in efforts to pay back appropriations voted annually by Congress. Luce said this is largely because the system has run out of firm power to sell. Luce said the California intertie would be feasible if Congress would pass legislation to protect Northwest customers' from Calif ornia agencies that would benefit under the preference clause. lhe prelerence clause gives first call on federally granted power to public power groups. One of the main objections to an intertie with California has been that private power agencies in the Northwest might suffer from a lack of power. With the intertie, Luce said, power furnished during the winter from California steam p 1 a'n t s could firm up Northwest power which now is classified as second ary. Luce said there still is some hope of getting power from a Canadian treaty ratified by the United States but held up by a disagreement between the Canad ian federal government and the provincial government of British Columbia. Luce said power from the Han- ford nuclear reactor would have firmed up secondary power, but the House turned down appropri ations for the reactor. Hotel Fire Claims Two NEW ORLEANS (AP) - Fire-1 men poked through the still-warm embers of a second class hotel in the French Quarter Saturday. 1 wo and possibly more men were believed dead and five fire men injured. A repeated general alarm brought more than 30 major fire- fighting units screaming into the French Quarter Friday night. The fire broke out in the Silver Dollar Hotel one block above Canal Street and quickly jumped to a branch of the Whitney National Bank. Firemen played streams of water from two-doi-en high pres sure hoses on to the hotel and bank building as flames skipped across the rooftops. Fire chief Howard Dey and his top lieutenants hustled quickly from the Firemen's Ball at Muni cipal Auditorium to supervise the battle against the leaping flames. Dey explained there was no verification of the two dead, but employes of the hotel said they nought there were about nine transients in the building when the fire broke out. Two were be lieved to have been trapped. The Silver Dollar, lurking in the shadow of one of the French Quarter's luxury hotels, was gutted. For a time the fire appeared' likely to spread from the ancient hotel and the half-century-old bank building to the scores ol little shops and warehouses in the neighborhood. But firemen con tained the blaze. Of the five firemen injured none was believed in serious con dition. Dey said that two of them were hurt in flames "from the back draft." a sort of explosion! Irom tire and accumulated gases Dey estimated the damage at quarter-million dollars. 1961 PAGE S-A " ear .-7..;", I I I I ill y p I ti y TTTTm IfRtij GETTING READY They are digging into the past for costumes for the Elks mas querade party which will be held at the temple Oct 28.

Veterans Services Director Eldon The operators said they wereCone sajj Friday ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP)-A sex criminal on the FBI's "10 most wanted" list was tracked down and quietly arrested Friday night only four blocks from the scene of a brutal murder. The FBI said the victim was one of three women he confessed having killed. Hugh Bion Morse, good-looking 31-year-old former mental patient! in California, bragged to authori ties he had slain two women at Spokane, Wash. He is wanted for questioning in at least one other slaying there.. Morse was captured without resistance a his rooming house, although agents found a loaded 25-caliber pistol, a knife and a straightedged razor in the room. He was arraigned before U.S. Commissioner William Eckley and ordered held in a marshal's custody without bail. A federal warrant in Los Angeles issued Feb. 16, 1961 charged Morse with unlawful interstate flight to avoid prosecution for burglary, and as sault to commit murder. Friday the 13th was the. end of the line for the wavy haired, ta- tooed former' serviceman who has a history of sex crimes going back 10 years. William H. Williams, special agent in charge of the FBI office at Minneapolis, said Morse had confessed to the Sept. 19 slaying here of Carol Ronan, 34, a social worker and graduate nurse. She was found beaten strangled and raped in her apartment the next morning. Agents found her watch in a cigar .box in Morse s room. Spokane police said they want ed to question Morse about the killings of Gloria Brie, an attrac tive young wife who was found beaten to death in her bed 1959; Blanche Boggs, an elder'y widow beaten to death in her home last year, and Candy Rog ei's, 9, found assaulted and stran gled in woods near Spokane In 1959. Authorities said Morse had not confessed to a Los Angeles mur der. as reported earlier Friday might. But the FBI said authori ties in several communities want ed to question Morse about sex crimes. The FBI pursuit of Morse came after he allegedly entered the home of his estranged wife at Reseda, Calif., on Oct. 28. 1960 and tried to strangle her. He was interrupted by his mother-in-law and fled. At St. Paul, he had lived al the rooming house where he was arrested since Aug. 15, 1961. He worked as a filling station atten dant, one of the pickup type jobs he got there and on the West Coast. He used the alias Darwin J. Corman. Agent Williams described him as a motorcyclist enthusiast who liked drag racing. He has ta tooed arms with the Marine Corps insignia and the words "Chris Morse and Virginia." Morse was born in Kansas City. unable to schedule adequate long shore help in advance of the set tlement and consequently it will be another day or two before full scale loading is ip progress.

Lethal Povref Charged Held By Hoffa Unions WASHINGTON (AP) - Sen John L. McClellan. D-Ark., said today alliances linking allegedly Communist-dominated labor un ions and James R. Hoffa's Team sters could wield "lethal and monopolistic power." He called for enactment of legislation to curb them. Hoffa testified Friday he was strengthening his "mutual assist ance" pact with Harry Bridges' West Coast longshoremen's union and also has an alliance with the Mine, Mill and Smelter Workers Union. Bridges' union and the mine worker's union were expelled from the CIO in 1950 on charges of following Communist policies. In questioning Hoffa. the Senaie Internal Security subcommittee, labeled both unions as Commu nist dominated. "I don't know whether they arc Communist - dominated or not," Hoffa said of the two unions, "There will be no pact between the Teamsters Union and any or ganization so convicted." Hoffa said the pacts with the two unions were aimed solely at "labor solidarity and had no political or ideological implications. At the outset of the healing Hoffa declared that he welcomed a chance to testify under oath that "Hoffa was not a Communist, has not associated with Communists, is not a Communist and never intends to be." Four officials of the mine work er s union tollowed Holla to the witness stand. One, a Bernard W. Stern, re search director, swore he was not a Communist and wasn't one a year ago or two years ago. How- ever, he refused to say whether he was a member of tJTe Commu nist party three years ago or in 1945, when he got his union job. Stern invoked the 5th Amendment protected against being com pelled to give testimony that might be solf-incriminating. The three other officials called to the stand were Irving Dichtcr, secretary-treasurer; Harold San derson, comptroller, and Albert C. Skinner, western vice presi dent. They have been convicted of conspiracy to defraud the gov ernment by filing false non-Communist affidavits. Nathan Witt, their lawyer, ob jected that if the subcommittee questioned them about commu nism it might prejudice their cases in event of a retrial. Mc Clellan tentatively upheld the ob jection, but ordered all four back (or another hearing Nov. 6. Dich tcr and Sanderson gave some testimony, but Skinner was on the stand only long enough to agree to return in November. Hoffa testified he believed t was permissible to use strikes as a "political weapon" against legislation opposed by labor union, for instance. J. G. Sourwine, the subcommit tee's counsel, asked whether Hof fa and Bridges weren't trying to strengthen their lies by arranging for their labor contracts to expire simultaneously a device which would put them side by side in negotiating renewals. 'We re not trying we already did it," Hoffa replied. What's more, he said, he and Bridges, have drafted an agreement for! joint contract negotiations with employers. He predicted "it sure will" be used. 6 HV7.49 51-59 w I AllfC yy) mar. 22 i-A". 20 1 6-10-11 34 ' 58-67-80871 TAURUS APR 21 MAY 21 CIMIM MAY 22 JUNt22 ?1 J- 0-17-26J vyw.Aj.fli.
