Solons Pass Measure Requiring Okay On All Governor Appointees HERALD AND NEWS, Klamath Falls. Or. SALEM ifPli-A bill requiring Senate confirmation of all t h e governor's appointments passed the Senate 22-8 Monday despite a warning it would let the governor evade responsibility. Sen. Thomas Mahoney, D-Port-land, one of its two sponsors, said the bill has the approval of Gov. Mark Hatfield. The Senate now confirms ap pointments to seven boards and commissions ranging from the State Board of Higher Education to the Port of Portland Commis sion. Mahoney said the bill, which now goes to the House, will apply to the members of some 171 boards and commissions, includ ing such major ones as the High way Commission and the State Tax Commission. He called it a "matter of con sistency" to confirm all appoint ments. All confirmations would be by simple majority of the Senate, instead of the two-thirds vote now required for some positions. Sen. Alfred Corbett, D-Portland. said Oregon's hodge - podge of boards and commissions often is DELIVERY BY TELEPHONE Above is Mrs. Delia Chappelle, PTT operator, who be came a long-distance Godmother Sunday morning when she gave emergency in structions for the delivery of a baby to a frantic .father at Kekawaka, a nearly inac cessable mountain railroad stop 100 miles southeast of Eureka.

The first Ofi-page edition of the New York Post rolled off the presses at 8 a.m. and were bun dled into delivery vans for dis tribution throughout the city. The end of the newspaper blackout was eagerly anticipated by commuters arriving at Hudson Terminal, Grand Central Station and other transportation centers in the city. Is the Post out yet?" was the question of the hour for those who arrived in the city a few minutes before the paper hit the streets. The few copies that were avail able during the early trickle of distribution could have been sold for black market prices. A batch of 50 Posts arriving at a Grand Central Station news stand at 10:35 a.m. sold out in three minutes. Some customers bought as many as three copies, and a television commentator planning to exhibit a copy on camera found none left. Robert G. Gray, assistant to Post Publisher Mrs. Dorothy Schilf. said today's press run would be around oOO.ono copies. The prcstrike sales circulation was 336.000 daily, Gray said. The eight other major dailies still closed by the city's longest and costliest newspaper strike will meet today to resume con tract talks. Mayor Robert F.
