Williamson
Trial Enters
Second Day
The prosecution's main witness
was testifying Tuesday morning
in the second day of the armed
robbery trial of Johnnie Lee Wil
liamson, 18-year-old Klamath Falls
youth.
Mrs. Lorelei Hayncs. manager
of the Falcon Heights Store. 3204
Midland Road, identified William
son as the young man who robbed
her of about $55 at gunpoint on
the night of Aug. 20.
Mrs. Haynes said Williamson
first came into the store and
asked where Sam's Corner was
She said she told him it was
across the street. He went out,
she said, but came back in a few
minutes.
"I looked down and saw a re
volver in his right hand," Mrs.
Hayncs said. "Then he said, 'I
guess all I want is your money.' "
Mrs. Haynes said she took the
cash drawers from the register
and the young holdup man scooped
the money into a bag.
Williamson, a short, freckle-
faced, redhaired youth, was ar
rested by state police two days
later on a charge of carrying a
concealed weapon. The armed rob
bery charge was filed after Mrs.
Haynes picked him out of a po
lice lineup.
A jury of six men and six
women was chosen Monday as
the trial began. Williamson went
on trial earlier this month but
a mistrial was declared when one
of the jurors was called out of
town. After the jury viewed the
scene, the defense attorney said
in his opening statement that
"Williamson was not present when
the robbery occurred. He said
Williamson was at Lucky Lanes
Bowling Alley and added that Mrs.
Haynes was "mistaken."
Youth Cited
For Bad Breaks
A citation for driving with de
fective brakes was issued Monday
morning to an 18-year-old Klam
ath Falls youth after a collision
at the comer of South Sixth and
Elm streets.
Cited was Dennis G. Larson, 18.
Route 3, Box 293. City police said
Larson's brakes failed and he ran
a red light and hit a car driven
by Deane H. Hagen, 33, 4419 Clin

Opinions Vary On Wilderness Bill
McCALL. Idaho (AP) - A biolo
gist said the Senate-approved Wil
derness Bill Is "one of the truly
great pieces of legislation," but a
husincssman said it "stifles multi
ple use development of our natural
resources,"
That was the range of testimony
given at a House public lands sub
committee hearing which opened
Monday and was to wind up Tues
day before going to Montorse.
Colo., Wednesday. ,
Seventy persons testified In per
son Monday. Fifty were opposed,
20 were in favor. Forty more were
scheduled to appear Tuesday.
The subcommittee chairman.
Rep. Gracie Pfost, D-Idaho, said of
the written statements submitted
103 were In favor and 33 were
opposed.
The Senate bill would set aside
certain public lands and preserve
them as wilderness areas.
1. H. Harris of Burley. president
of the Idaho State Chamber of
Commerce, said the bill "stifles
multiple use development of our
natural resources and ... by
allowing only a congressional veto
of a presidential recommendation
is contrary to the United Mates
constitution and the power it con
fers on the legislative branch of
the government."
Lyle Stanford, College of Idaho
biology professor, said the bill is
one of the truly great pieces of
legislation" and does "not lock up
land to anywhere near the amount
that our opponents have been
leading people to believe."
Art Manley of Coeur d'Alene,
Idaho, president of the Wildlife
Federation there, said there
is "considerable misunderstanding
and lark of understanding about"
the legislation.
Henry Krai of Everett, Wash.,
representing the North Cascade
Conservation Council, said objec
tions to the bill "have been met
long ago . . . there Is no economic
justification to oppose the Wilder
ness Bill."
"There is no need for a special
law to protect or set aside wilder
ness areas because it is already
provided for," said Ernest Butler,
president of the Mining and Re
sources Association of Lewiston.
Idaho.
"The average American louriit
is not the wilderness user. It
strangles further development of
mass recreational facilities," said
R. N. Witter of Seattle, assistant
supervisor of timber and land for
the Northern Pacific Railroad Co,
Mrs. Pfost said the subcommit
tee is considering not only the
Senate-passed bill but also other
bills and will make recommenda
tions for "the best bill possible."

SALEM (AP) Stale Finance
Director Freeman Holmer recom
mended today that the state
Board of Higher Education solve
its financial dilemma by increas
ing the student-teacher ratio and
by practicing rigid economy.
He advised the state Emergency
Board, which meets here Friday.
to give the state colleges and uni
versities $144,231, instead of the
$2,770,124 which they requested.
The financial trouble resulted
from a 19 per cent increase in
enrollment this fall, inslead of the
6.7 per cent that had been expec
ted by the Board of Higher Educa
tion and the legislature.
Holmer said the ratio of stu
dents to teachers could be in
creased to 17.3 to 1. It was 16.7 lo
1 last year, and the legislature
had planned to reduce it to 16 to
1 this year.
If the Emergency Board accepts
his proposal, the ratios would
range up to 22 to 1 in freshman
and sophomore classes, but much
lower for upperclassmen and
graduates.
He also said that the Board of
Higher Education should defer
plant rehabilitation where pos
sible, and make an intensified
economy drive.
Holmer said the Board of Higher
Education should not be blamed
for not anticipating the enrollment
increase.
For several years, he said
about 35 per cent of Oregon high
school graduates have gone on to
college.

No Special
Meet Eyed
By Governor
SALEM (AP) - Gov. Mark O
liattield said today he has no
plans to call a special session of
the legislature.
"There is no crisis that would
justify a special session," he said.
"Besides." he added, "a special
session would be too costly. There!
would be a multiplicity of issues,
and much political finagling."
The governor said, however,
that he would call one if some
crisis developed.
"But as of now, I don't see any
such crisis.
Several weeks ago, he had indi
cated he might call a special ses
sion so that the daylight saving
time referendum might be placed
on the ballot next May. It now is
to be placed on the November bal
lot.
He had said that placing it on
the May ballot, would give the peo
ple a chance lo adopt daylight
saving time for the whole state,
and thus avoid time confusion next
summer.

two alternatives to stem the en
rollment tide for next year. Either
the "split shift" or what McKin
ny called "a more complicated
kind of split" the "extended" ses
sion. Among suggestions from parents
were: Holding school 12 months a
year on the quarter system. Util
izing temporary buildings. Vol
untary summer school (or credit.
McKinny and Hunsaker said all
these proposals had been talked
about bv the board at one time
or another and all had been dis
carded for various reasons.
Both administrators emphasized
that measures enacted would be
'strictly a stop-gap arrange
ment."
This evoked comment from the
crowd on the possibility that eith
er the split or extended session
might work indefinitely. Members
of the audience asked McKinny
how either had worked in other
places.
McKinny's comment was,
shortly after either of these are
initiated, something seems to hap
pen to get more facilities." The
croud was told that both ar
rangements were unsatisfactory to
students, parents, teachers, the
school board and the administra
tion. "It's a choice between the
lesser of two evils," Hunsaker
said.
Board member Margaret Sheri
dan moved that the extended ses
sion be adopted "because it will
allow for those students who wish
to, to take six subjects per semes
ter without summer school." The
proposal was seconded by Chair
man George Flitcraft.
No additional discussion followed
and the vole in favor of extended
session was unanimous.
After one and one-half hours of
discussion and explanation, the
formal business of the evening
took three minutes, 20 seconds.
Briefly, what extended schedule
means was outlined by McKinny.
I. On regular school days,
classes begin at 8 a.m. and run
through 4:55 p.m.
2. Those students taking six sub
jects will attend school from 3
a.m. to 2:55 p.m. Those taking
five subjects, from 11 a.m. to
4:55 p.m. (some crossing over will
be permitted, depending upon
class offerings).
3. Students will lunch in three
shifts; one-third of the student
body at a time.
Disadvantages to both proposals.
which will still be detrimental to
the adopted "extended" session include:
I. Student control difficulties
Students come and go all day.
making hall supervision a prob
lem to teachers attempting to con
duct classes.
2. Additional bus runs neces
sary, taking bus drivers off
maintenance details. More main
tenance help needed.
3. No possibility for faculty
meetings.
4. Scheduling of classes diffi
cult. Some special section offer
ings (band, advance public speak
ing, etc.) will have to be sched
uled al times students have open
ing in their schedules.
5. Morale difficulties. Student as
semblies hard to schedule and
student government and extra-curricular
activities disrupted be
cause of difficulty in setting meet
ing times.
6. Increased clerical and admin
istrative help costs.
7. No teacher-supervised study
hall.
The problem remains, what will
take place alter 12-63?
School officials hope to have a
bond issue proposal ready for the
voters by spring, 1962 The issue
will be to finance construction of
a Summers Lane High School
building, which may eventually
become a junior high school, hous
ing either grades seven, eight and
nine or at least seven and eight.
It seems probable now. that if the
bond issue passes, its first year or
so of operation will be for ninth
grade only, thus alleviating soma
pressure on the existing high
school facilities.
The ultimate plan, again hing
ing on voter approval, is that a
junior high school system will be
adopted here by the mechanism
of the district voting itself down
to include additional grades and
leaving KUHS itself as a senior
high school for grades 10, 11 and
12.
Flitcraft said that detailed plans
will be available from the archi
tect by April, 1962, ind the board
hopes to be able to let bids for
the Summers Lane constructio.i
shortly after that.
