No plan yet proposed has been Accepted by all the school boards. Dr . Robinson feels that the lat est proposal of making a single district, of all of Klamath Coun ty, would be detrimental to the Outlying county schools, which adue to size, even now suffer from ja restricted curriculum, and that costs of this plan would probably JjC higher than working under the present tetup.

Courts Get Racial Row By United Press International Courtrooms in Alabama and Mississippi served as the back drops today for the latest civil rights battles in the Smith. An Alabama circuit judge at Birmingham was expected to rule on contempt of court charges against Negro leader Martin Lu ther King Jr. and 10 other min isters. The charges stem from a 24-day old anti-segregation cam paign in the Alabama industrial city. The group could be sentenced to five days in jail and fined $30 for criminal contempt. The maxi mum penalty for civil contempt is imprisonment until defiance ol the court is purged. King was ar rested for leading a Good Friday mass march two days after the issuance of an injunction against racial demonstrations. A federal judge was to hear ar guments at Jackson, Miss., today on a motion to remand the case of eight bi-racial pickets to mu nicipal court for trial. Arrested last Dec. 12, the pick ets have petitioned federal court to remove their case from local jurisdiction. Attorneys for the state and city asked for retention of the cases in Jackson city court. The pickets were charged with obstructing the sidewalks during their anti-segregation picketing of certain stores. In other racial developments on Thursday: A federal judge at Montgom ery, Ala., was asked to assume jurisdiction in a seven-year-old case in which Alabama has pro hibited the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACPI from doing busi ness in the state.

I'M? 4 " ' Business Urges Legislative Enthusiasm For Tax Cuts WASHINGTON (UPD-A group of business leaders joined today in the campaign to get Congress more enthused about cutting taxes this year. Thirty-six industrial leaders met here Thursday and formed a com mittee to start building business support for tax reduction. The list of charter members read like a page from "Who's Who" in U.S. business. Frazar B. Wilde, spokesman for the group, told a news conference the administration had suggested formation of the committee. But he said the committee was not en dorsing President Kennedy's spe cific tax plan. The President earlier this year recommended a $13 billion pro gram of tax reduction and revi sion, but neither Congriss nor the public seems too excited about it Terrible Tempered Ivan Kills Polar Bear Mate Wilde, board chairman of the Connecticut General Life Insur ance Company, said the dearth of public support for cutting taxes was the main reason the business committee was organized. "Tliis is just to bring more peo ple to the front to endorre the idea," he said. Kennedy met with the commit tee at the White House and then issued a statement saying it "will perform a useful public service in fostering a wider understand ing of the national need for prompt and substantial reduction JOHN MORLEY Journalist's Talk Slated John Morlcy. one of America's most traveled columnists, auth ors, and lecturers, who last year completed his 22nd news beat to the hot spots of tile world. will give members of the Klam ath Falls Knife & Fork Club a reporter's picture of present world conditions and what may be expected in the future, during the Wednesday, May 1, dinner in the Winema Hotel.

Morley will report his obser vations and give an analytical discussion of Europe, the East and the other "hot spots of the world. LOS ANGELES iUPl - Ivan, the terrible tempered Polar bear of Griffith Park Zoo, Thursday! turned . from lover to killer ami, mauled his male of 11 years to death. "He went berserk" when his mate, Lena, spurned his amorous advances, chief keeper Mike Wendt said. Keepers stood by helplessly as the 830-pound bear silently killed Lena. There were no sounds from! either Ivan or his 500-pound mate in the 90-minute struggle. Ivan and Lena have had four cubs. Ivan killed two other bears in separate incidents in fits of jeal ousy over Lena. He was nearly destroyed, but was granted a last minute reprieve. "Polar bears are naturally mean," a zoo official said at the time. "Why destroy one that fol lows his instincts." Wendt said there h no danger to visitors as long as Ivan's ac tivities are carefully restricted and there still are no plans to destroy him despite Lena's death. "He's mean, but he's a good specimen." Wendt said. "We'd just be short another Polar bear." The passenger pigeon became extinct in the U.S. in 1914 when the last known bird died the Cincinnati zoo.

The committee statement made it clear that the business lead ers considered tax reduction the paramount legislative goal this year. It said that cutting government expenditures and enacting so- called tax reforms also were im portant, but that neither should he allowed to hinder the drive to reduce tax rates. While the committee did not endorse Kennedy's tax plan, it outlined a broad tax cut program that was close enough to the President's to permit him to ben efit from any support it might generate. The committee said it favored a $10 billinii tax cut, including a substantial reduction" in indivi dual tax rates and a cut in the corporate tax rale from 52 to 47 per cent.
