Vandals painted the main

pirn, Thursday night, Principal
Jicurgc Elliott has reported to the
slierill's office and Oregon State
police.

Ipday that the letters KUHS were
sprayed In black paint on the
main entrance to the building
and similar letters were applied
to the other doors and sidewalk
in red.
A search of the school grounds
by Sheriff Britton and deputy Lee
Saunders turned up a paint
brush at the south end of the
school and an empty paint spray
can in the tennis courts at the op
posite end of the campus.
The sheriff later determined
that the paint spray was acquired
from a local drug store and at
noon, Friday, was seeking to

State police are assisting in the
investigation.
Damage tn the buildings and
the grounds has not yet been de

Cash Slated
To Surface
Highway
LAKEVIEW An April 4 re
lease from the office of Congress
man Al Ullman announces a
$200,000 allocation of Accelerated
Public Works funds for work on a
six-mile section of U.S. Highway
395. The permanent surfacing of
the highway, from four miles
south of Valley Falls to just south
of Chandler Wayside, will begin
in June and provide 168 man
months of work for unemployed
men in Lake County.
Ullman was praised by Sens
Wayne Morse and Maurine Ncu
bcrger for the effective job he
did in gaining the grant for Lake
County. Almost all of the funds
available for the entire county
had previously been exhausted.
Ullman was able to secure the al
location out of fiscal 1963 funds
because preliminary engineering
plans were available so lhat work
could begin before the end of the
fiscal year on June 30.
The congressman stated
Judge Ogle had written me
bout the pressing need for ex
pediting road construction work,
and I went to work on this as
soon as Lake County became eli
gible on March 8. 1 am particu
larly pleased with Ihe success
both because of the present em
ployment situation in Lake Coun
ty and also this pressing need for
accelerated highway work."
The section of highway involved
was reconstructed in 1900 and a
temporary surface was laid. Ac
cording In the state highway en
gineer, the Increasingly heavy
traffic on this section of U.S.
Iiighway means a permanent re
surfacing job needs to be done
quickly to prevent deterioration
of the original construction work.

Three Sex
Crime Bills
Pass House
SALEM I CPU - A trio of sex
offender bills whipped easily
through the Oregon House today
and a fourth measure, defeated
Thursday, was revived.
Only a handful of members vot
ed against each of the three bills,
which go to the Senate.
One would clarify the offense
of a "peeping torn."
The second would permit en
hanced penalties, including inde
terminate sentences for second
and subsequent sex offenses.
The third would put jurisdiction
over sex offenses involving chil
dren in the circuit courts. Rep.
Shirley Field, R-Portland, said
this would prevent youngsters
from having to appear in court
more than once, since the circuit
courts are courts of record and
keep a transcript, while lower
courts do not.
The revived bill would transfer
juvenile jurisdiction from county
to circuit courts. It was sent back
lo the J u d i c i a r y Committee,
where an amendment may be
made to exclude counties of small
population.
The four bills are part of a
package of six aimed at sex of
fenders.
The olher two, expected on the
House floor before long, would
provide for commitment and
treatment of persons who 'are
demonstrably sexually dangerous
and would set up a central police
filing bureau for sex offenses.

WASHINGTON (UPD - Sen
Wayne L. Morse, D-Ore., Thurs-i
day night accused the General
Services Administration 1GSA1 of
considering "scandalous" propos
als to sell the closed Tongue
Point Naval Station at Astoria,
Ore., lo private bidders for a
"pittance."
Morse warned that the GSA
would be "laying an egg of scan
dal for this administration to be
hatched in Ihe heat of the 19K4
campaign" if it went ahead with
plans.
And. he told the Senate, Presi
dent Kennedy will have to an
swer to Oregon voters next year
it he lets the GSA go ahead.
The Navy closed the Tongue
Point base in 1959 as an obsolete
facility. Morse and Sen. Maurine
B. Xeuberger, D-Ore., have been
trying to move other government
facilities into the surplus installation.
Their effort lo move a Coast
Geodetic Survey facility from Se
attle to the Astoria site had been
unsuccessful.
Morse held the Senate into a
late evening session to berate the
GSA for trying to "sweep Ihe' is
sue under the rug" through a
quick sale of Ihe surplus property.
The Oregon Democrat said one
proposed bid is for only $1.4 mil
lion, which be branded a "scan
dalous return" for the former
Navy base at the mouth of the
Columbia River. He said one
stone quarry alone on the noi
acre base is worth 1.5 million
according to estimates of "repu
table road-builders."
Morse told the Senate that "I
don't propose to sit here and per-
mit our administration to be taken
in by that kind of scandal."
A sale of Tongue Point without
a thorough survey of other pos
sible government uses would be
a "shoddy and unconscionable
waste" of taxpayer funds, Morse
declared.
