Goldberg an nounced Sunday that 52.278 labor unions now file reports with the government under the Landnim-j Tuesday, November 7, 1961 Klunalh FalU. Oregon Burglaries One-A-Day In Klamath By GUY W. FARMER Burglaries are reported in the Klamath Falls area on an aver age of one every other day. In many cases, careless businessmen unwittingly help the burglars, ac cording to city police. During the months of September and October, 35 burglaries or at tempts were reported in the Her ald and News. Thirty two of these occurred within the Klam ath Falls city limits. Nothing was taken in seven of the incidents and eight of the burglaries were reported solved by police. Loot from the burglaries amounted to about (7,000 although, in several cases, the exact amount of the theft was not determined. Only five of the reports were ac tual safecracking jobs. Charles A. Howard, Klamath Falls chief of police, said Tues day that businessmen could help police in cramping tho style of burglars. Howard said there arc too many instances of sheer care lessness. "We have many instances where businesses are violating basic rules of security," Howard said. "Some places don't even have a good safe. They hide money in coffee cans or cigar boxes In un locked drawers or cabinets." There are a few simple rules that all businesses should observe, Howard said. Here they are: 1. Keep doors and windows locked at night and when no one is in the building. 2. Always have a night light burning 'inside the store. The small amount of electricity used is well worth the protection. 3. Buy a good safe. Howard said some businesses are using thin metal fire boxes in place of secure sates, the cniet recom mended floor-type immovable safes. 4. Don't let money accumulate. Money should be taken to the bank daily, whenever possible. There have been several cases where more than $1,000 was left in the store. 5. Keep the safe .where it can be seen. Howard said police offi cers can easily spot a burglar who is working in a lighted place. How ard said safes should be located near the night light. If possible Klamath Falls has no armored car service, Howard said, and it is a fairly common practice for local merchants to stroll down the street with their dally receipts. City police will assist merchants on trips to the bank when help is requested, Howard said. "Burglaries are not limited to Klamath Falls." Howard said. "Eugeno and Medford have also been reporting many breakins." Klamath Falls, however, does have a large number of tran sients, Howard said. Transients are oflcn in search of food and money. Businesses near railroad 'yards should be especially careful, Howard said. The industrial area along Spring Street is often vic timized by burglars. Beer Found; Bail Forfeit Two Klamath Falls youths and a 16-year-old girl companion were taken into custody Friday niRht hy city police, who found heer in the youths' car. Hohert L. Chcync, 18, 3:111 West ern Street, and Marion J. Burns, 20, MO Pine Street, wore charged with heing minors in possesion of liquor. Police had found beer in me youins car. wnicn was lopped near the intersection of!1'" cancelled. Esplanade Street and Kit Car- son Way. Cheyne and Burns both failed to appear Monday morning lor municipal court and each youth forfeited $25 hail. The girl was taken into temporary custody and held lor Juvenile authorities.

Rustling Jury Visits Ranch A circuit coiut jury took a trip Tuesday morning to a lemole ranching area 28 miles north o( Chiloquin in connection Willi the cattle rustling trial of Ralph U. Hullt, 31, Chiloquin. The jury, eight women and four men. was to view a pasture where a calf was allegedly stolen on Aug. II from Frank Sagehoin of Red Bluff. Sagehorn had been pas turing Uie calf on the Vamsay Ranch north of Chiloquin. A grand jury indictment accused Hunt o( shooting the calf and stealing its hindquarters. Htutt and his brother, Robert L . 29. had originally been charged but tlx case was dismissed alter preliminary hearing.

Building inspector Vcrn Schort- gen reported on Uie progress of tearing down condemned build ings. He reported that two had been torn down or were being torn down, two repaired, and an other, in an estate being admin istered by the U.S. National Rank was still in the process. The bank informed the council it had received no instructions from the recipients of the estate regard ing disposition of the building. They asked a farther deferment in the proceedings, but the coun cil moved to ask a resolution be prepared instructing the city toi tear down the structure. In other matters, bids were opened for two automobiles. The council had asked for bids on compact automobiles with an al ternate on standard models. Jim Olson Motors submitted a bid of $2.7116.46 for two compacts, and $3,358.48 for two standards. This was the net figure after sub traction of trade-in allowances on two old autos. Other bidders were Balsiger Motors with a bid of $2,899.84 on two compacts, and $3,490.66 on standards, and Dugan and Mest bids of $3,761 on com pacts and $4,469 on standard mod els. The council referred the mai ler to the city manager and po lice chief for study and recom mendation. A supplemental budget was ap proved which transferred $7,000 from the general fund to the park fund. This was the balance of $13,- 000 which was paid for the pur chase of the old site of the Klam ath County School. This property was owned by the park board, and the supplemental budget trans ferred the balance of the $13,000 (o this account. The anti-littor ordinance was given third and final reading and will go into effect in 30 days.

Minard Presents Israel By ANDY MERSHON Israel, a land fabled in fiction and fact from the Bible to "Exo dus," was the subject of a concise presentation in Klamath Falls Monday by the secretary of the Is raeli YMCA. Herbert Minard, who has served in the YMCA World Service or ganization for 11 years in Israel, dealt with a quick survey of the problems besetting govern ments and social agencies within the multi-peopled Holy Land As a nation, Israel came into being for the second time in 1948. To some it was a "solution to the Jewish problem," to Zionists it was a homeland lor the Jews aller 2.000 years," lo Arabs it was "banditry," and to world-wide Jewish charity organizations it was anotlier expense. It look a bloody, continuing war. hut Israel stands, shaken and shakey, divergent in interest and nationality, a land of many tongues, but standing. Minard experienced all these phases of Israeli culture. He told his small audience at the Klamath Y" that he and his YMCA staff at Jerusalem had watched troops ii'f arts hntifc nm-iiMin hhiiii lew ptoole foil to notice the flow ers that ore sent to the bersoved family. Since flowers ore so very Important, they receive speoal core at O'Hair's Memorial Chapel to insure beauty onj freshness on tHf day of the funeral service. MOHAIR'S School Boards Vote In a resolution adopted unani mously by joint boards of t h e Klamath Falls city schools Mon day night, the schools elected to attempt purchase of their milk for a set price and not call for competitive bidding. The resolution, however, set up mechanics for calling for bids should local milk distributors not meet the boards' established ceil ing price of 6 6 cents per half pint. It further established pro cedure for drawing lots should the bids submitted be identical under this alternate plan. The schools now buy milk for 7.2 cents per half pint. Adoption of the resolution was moved by Rollin Cantrall. half of the two-member board committee named to study the milk situation for the school boards Oct. 2. Prior to' adoption of the milk resolution, a formal opinion frm P. K. Puckett, board attorney, was read, in which Puckett said the schools were not required by law to call for bids on milk In an attempt several years ago to put the schools' milk busi ness up for bid, all the bids re ceived were the same. Superintendent Ray Hunsaker distributed a letter to members of the board from State Attorney General Robert Y. Thornton which asked that he be informed in de tail of any "identical" bids sub mitted to any Oregon political sub divisions. Milk the schools will purchase will .have a minimum butterfat content of 3.5 per cent as incor porated in the boards' resolution. According to Puckett, the stat ute requiring calling for bids on items over $2,000 by the school board, does not apply to the milk situation because the school lunch program went into effect before the statute was enacted. Milk, it was explained, is an Girls To Sell Cotton Candy A cotton candy sale will be staged by Semper Paratus Hori zon Club of the Camp Fire Girls from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday.

He told of the gradually increas ing Communist influence in the cities and "border" zones. He also told of a competitive Red organi zation which may challenge YMCA influence among refugees and youth in Lsrael. The biggest underlying problem in Israel, Minard said, was the refugee situation. Droves of Euro pean Jews flood into Israel each year. Some have the unrealistic idea they are entering into the land of milk and honey. On top of tiiis. thousands of Arabs left Ihe land and have been residing under United Nations care, only a few miles from the Israeli border.

In other business, the boards named committees to meet with teachers on the issues of merit pay and salary study. They also nominated budget committee members. The lease for the present ad ministration unit on Klamath Ave nue was reported extended at no increased rent, until Jan. 15. Six Thefts Under Probe Six burglaries were under in vestigation Tuesday morning by city police. Most serious report came from Long Bell Lumber Co., Main and Spring streets. Burglars entered the building early Tuesday morn ing by prying some double doors open on a lumber shed. Once inside, they jimmied a lock to gain entry to the main office. Police said the burglars pried the safe open with an iron bar and stole at least $500 and some petty cash. The safe was in a vault and police said there were no signs that the vault had been forced open. Therefore, the Uiieves either knew the vault com bination or the vault was unlocked. police surmised. Other burglaries were reported at Klamath Falls Auction Co., 304a South Sixth Street; the Boy Scout Office, 1819 Manzamta Street; Con ger School: Jim Olson Motors' storeroom behind Colyear Motor Sales. 508 South Sixth Street, and the home of Ed Zajac, 1100 California Avenue. The auction company was en tered over the weekend by bur glars who stole an outboard mo tor, a portable typewriter and a 22 caliber automatic rifle, accord ing to owner Jerry Durnil. State police are investigating. Mert Matthewsen, scout execu tive, said the scout oil ice was broken into Sunday. Someone broke a rear window, climbed in and took a $67.5 Ocheck from the main office. Nothing was taken from Conger School but principal James Young said burglars had tried to break into the school office and a walk- in cooler. Several burglaries have been reported at the school in re cent months. Police said burglars broke into Olson's storeroom in an apparent attempt to break into Colyear's. Owner Jim Olson was called and he said nothing appeared to be missing. Several cars were stored in the room. Zajac told police someone broke into the basement of his home last week and stole a quarter-inch pow er drill, a heavy duty push drill and some oilier small tools. Tale For YMCA Here formed and the Ben-Gurion gov ernment continued. "One won ders." Minard said, "just how long this one will last." As a result of the fall of the first coalition, the Communists picked up two scats in parliament, Ben-Gurion's labor party lost two. But the competition between fac tions of the free world and those of communism, doesn't stop with political alignments or seats in a representative body. In September, five Arab youths attempted to escape from Israel. into the hot bed of the Gaza Strip. Israeli guards ordered them to stop, and when they failed to do so, shot the five down. The next day, Minard related. Communists touched off a dem onstration of 2.000 youths demand ing some sort of government re dress for the action. Officialdom darkly predicted the situation would get worse, and it did. The following afternoon, police were beaten and bloodied as 4.000 rioted again at ancient Mary's Well in the heart of Nazareth. Another riot was touched off. on the third day. again Communist- Edmund Vice-President PACIFIC NORTHWEST CO.

Mary's Well, where for centuries the townspeople have dipped their water, was the central point in two of the three riots. Just across from the well, in a strategic propaganda point, the Russian government will erect a youth center which will compete for influence with the YMCA pro gram. YMCA plans in Nazareth also call for erection of a youth cen ter and meeting place. Like most places in the world today, "pub lic opinion seems to hinge on who gets there first with the most," Minard said. The "Y" program in Nazareth began in 1950. housed then in rent al quarters. Soon, due to fund-rais ing efforts of the YMCA World Service Organization, plus those of local YMCA members, the Young Mens' Christian Association will be in new quarters they can truly call their own. Of 3,000 members of the YMCA in Jerusalem, Minard said, 95 per cent are Jews. E. Hass Fleischer Shows Piano Excellence At Concert By ELEANOR EHLERS One of today's finest pianists opened the Community Concert series Saturday night at Mills Auditorium. Leon Fleischer pre sented a program which was of more than usual interest, display ing the stellar technique and deep musical understanding which are placing him in the front rank of piano artists. Fleischer, accompanied here by his attractive bride, is as articu late in conversation as he is mu sically at the keyboard. Answer ing questions about himself, he tells that he began to study the piano at 5 years of age: was like most little boys in that he had to be reminded to practice and would sometimes set the clock ahead to avoid , practicing the required time, and was pri vately tutored so that most of his time could be devoted to mu sic. He studied piano with Schnabel from age 9 to 19; at the end of this 10-year period, Schnabel said to him that he must now work by himself to develop his own ar tistry. This he did so well that in 1952 he made history for Ameri can pianists by winning the Queen Elisabeth of Belgium Concours. In addition to his concert ttours around the world and appearances with major symphonies every where, Fleischer is on the staff of the Pcabody Institute of Music in Baltimore. In spite of this formi dable reputation, it is easy and fun to talk to the witty man. The program played deserves analysis as an educational expe rience, a prejudice remover, and a most satisfying auditory event. Fleischer is intellectually and technically the master of form in music, so much so that the quo tation "architecture is frozen mu sic" kept coming to mind through out the concert. The first number on the program, if it were possible to "freeze" it, would be a cathe dral. The Myr Hess arrangement of J. S. Bach's "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring" is always inspir ing: a glimpse from an imperfect world into a realm of symmetry and confidence. Completing this first group was the Beethoven Sonata, Opus 79, which was played in a manner commanding enough to make it appear easy. Ail the joy, gaiety, and humor written into this were beautifully displayed. A lesson m the history of es thetics and musical development is lo be learned from the contrast between the traditional form of the Beethoven Sonata and the free, completely different struc One-Car Crash Hurts Two A one-car accident about 9 p.m. Monday on the summit of Mt.

This is where the prejudice removal comes in, Liszt as a composer has perhaps been too much maligned as bombastic, treacly, and bent on display with out content. Certainly the artist's superb in terpretation of this major work of Liszt's portrayed a composer exploring a new dimension in sound, breaking through tradition al boundaries of form, exuberant ly developing and ornamenting his new ideas in a very personal and individualistic manner. V. uh a great depth of under standing, he presented the work of a man at times raging and at times whispering his freedom to be himself. The pianistic tone achieved was. liquid, shimmering, glistening, alternately a torrent of sound and a stream of melody. Two selections from "Iberia," by Isaac Albeniz were played aft er the intermission. The intricate rhythms and complicated harmo nies of these make up program music at its best, telling the story of what traditional folk life in Spain was, transmuted to music by this composer. Last on the program were two numbers by Maurice Ravel. First of these was "Valses Nobles and Sentimentales," a perfect setting for the display of keyboard ef fects ranging from a brusque sound and whimsical statements to a haunting, dreamy recapitu lation at the end. The piano tone was opulent, like the colors in a drop of oil sprcadipg on water. Final selection was "Alborado del Gracioso," which could be, according to the program, "a warning to two lovers, by a dis creetly stationed watcher, that dawn was approaching." However that may be, it is the essence of Spain in music, and could be the sun rising over the Alhambra, or could just as well be a most ex citing bull fight with hysterical audience, the tradition displays and posturings of the fighters, and that fine glissando up the key board could be the flash of the toreador's sword as well as the first ray of the sun. As encores, Fleischer played the rippling "Spinning Song" by Men delssohn, and "The Miller's Dance" from "The Three-Cor-nered Hat," by Manuel de Falla, a captivating and sophisticated ca per. The capacity audience was most appreciative of this concert in which Leon Fleischer brought to Klamath Falls some familiar mu sic and" some relatively unfamiliar music, all compelungly beautiful. the mountain and rolled over sev eral times.
