Former MP Held Guilty Frankie Joe Berry, 26, former Kingsley Field air policeman, was convicted of larceny Wednesday night by a circuit court jury which deliberated more than four hours. Berry was convicted in connec tion with the theft on July 27 of part of a coin changing machine containing about $40 from th e bcon-O-Wash Laundromat, 3622 South Sixth Street. The 11-1 ver dict was annouced at about 9 p.m. to bring the three-day trial to a close. Judge David R. Vanden berg will sentence Berry at 10 a.m. Monday. District Attorney Dale T. Crab- tree, who handled the state's case, accused Berry of stealing the coin changing machine with an accom pi ico, Chuiics R. lloxic. 24, also a former airman. Hoxie pleaded guilty last month and was sen tenccd to 16 months in the state penitentiary. He returned from Salem to testify at Berry's trial. Berry's defense was that he wasn't in the laundromat on July 27. He said he was at the homes of Clarence J. Diem and Mrs. Nina B. Hunt and the local bus depot. The defense attempted to show that Hoxie would have had time to commit the crime by him self. Hoxie. termed "a reluctant wit. ness at best" by Crabtree, finally admitted that Berry accompanied him to the laundromat. The de fense attorney moved for a di rooted verdict of acquittal on the grounds that Berry could not be convicted on the uncorroborated testimony of an accomplice. Judge Vanncnberg denied the motion Other witnesses included Mrs! Hunt, Diem, Mrs. Elsie Berry and Patricia heibert.

Seventeen Jackson County resi dents gave the $1.96 check lo an official of the London tea firm which lost a shipment in 1773 when Boston residents heaved it into the harbor. We are very grateful to the good people of Jackson County. Now we are waiting to hear from the rest of Oregon's counties and the other 49 states." said Leslie Simons, director of Davison and Newman. Davison and Newman has been trying for 188 years to collect the $4,966 debt. The British govern ment has ignored the firm's pe tition for seven generations. The government never gave us a peep, Bostonians simply smiled, but Jackson County oh, they are fine folk." Simons said. Mrs. Bert Pree, who headed the Jackson County delegation, gave Simons tlie check and a letter of explanation from Medford Mayor J.W. Snider. Medford is the me tropolis" of Jackson County, Sni der said, and recognized the "long unpaid" debt. Snider said Jackson County reckoned $1.96 was its share of the debt figured according to the current U.S. population. Medford's mayor indirectly apologized for the famed Tea Party in 1773. Snider said that in those coloni al days Massachusetts and the East Coast "could hardly be con sidered civilized." However, Jack son County is "highly civilized" and willing to pay up, he said. Simons said he is grateful and gave Mrs. Pree a package of tea for Mayor Snider. "1 just hope she gets it through Boston. The people there are sometimes troubles ome. We know," Simons said.

The school board has adopted the 1879 reader for the school's 225 pupils in a return to phonetics method of teaching reading. Pages were cut out and parts were taped over passages thought to be sectarian. By GUY W. FARMER Roaring jets and sonic booms are not the only well known sounds emanating from the Unit ed States Air Force. Another sound, this one more melodlus to the ear, is that of the Air Force Band. For two hours Wednesday night the huge band filled Pelican Court at Klamath Union High School with music, ranging from a mod ernistic interpretation of Fourth of July fireworks to the familiar stirring passages of the most fam ous of all John Phillip Souza marches, "The Stars and Stripes Forever." LaMar K. Jensen of the KUHS Music Department estimated the audience at 1.200 and said he was 'very appreciative" of the turn out. And the crowd, on its part. was most receptive to the band, directed by white-haired conduc tor. Col. George S. Howard. Clad in black and white Air Force formal dress, the band opened the program with a ver sion of "The Star Spangled Ban ner" that evoked mental images of "the rockets' red glare" above Fort McHenry. Next on the program was the overture from Patrie by Georges Bizet, featuring interest ing interplay between the flutes and clarinets. The band showed its versatility with a trumpet trio rendition of Victor Herbert's "The Three Solitaires" followed with a medley by H. Owen Reed called La Fiesta Mexicana." Possibly the lone Aztec in the audience pronounced the bell, drum and flute Aztec Dance "muy autentico" very authentic. And her feet moved in time to the music as the band played a mari- achi version of "Carnival" to con clude the medley. The Singing Sergeants, a 19- voice chorus directed by Capt. Robert L. Landers, provided back ground for M.Sgt. William Du- Pree, tenor. Sergeant DuPree first sang in Italian and more of the audience understood his encore, "Without a Song." "Fireworks," written by Sgt. Serge DeGastyne, was described as the sergeant's thoughts while watching a Fourth of July fire works display in Washington, D.C. Among instruments heard were a child's whistle, caps and a rattle that looked like a pencil sharpen- Mortgage LOANS for Looking for money lo borrow?
