He was SHOT IN THE BACK.) In the driveway of his modest home in the colored district of Mississippi's capital city, as he was returning from a civil rights rally. The slug from the assassin's rifle passed through his body, crashed through a picture window in the front of his house, where his wife and three children were waiting for him to get home from his work, and fell on table jn the living room too badly defaced, probably, to be useful as evidence. This awful deed prompts an adaptation of an ancient ques tion: Can any good EVER come out of Jackson where such a foul thing could be planned and exe cuted? Before answering, read this dis patch from Jackson, which ap peared in this morning's newspa pers: "The apparently successful transplanting of a healthy lung to a 58-year-old man has been dis closed by surgeons of the Univer sity Medical Center here. "The hospital team that per formed the operation said the transplant, believed to be the first ever performed, was made lues- day and the patient was report ed doing well alter the tnree-nour operation. "The surgeons said they re placed a cancerous lung with a healthy lung FROM A.N UNRE LATED DONOR." Which is lo say: Someone in Jackson. Missis- fippi, not even a relative, was willing to GIVE ONE OF HIS LUNGS to a fcliow human being in the hope that the gilt would SAVE THE Lire of the recipi ent of the gift What shall wc say of that? Let's go back to the Scripture John II: "The day following. Jesus would go forth into Galilee, and find eth Philip, and saith unto him. Follow me. "Now Philip was of Bethcsda,' the city of Andrew and Peter. "Philip findeth Nathaniel, and saith unto him: We have found him of whom Mows in the law and the prophets did write. Jesus of Nazareth, in whom there is no guile. "And .Nathaniel said unto him: fan there be any good thing come out of Nazareth-1 Philip said unto him: Come and sec." l-cl's nut it this way: In the wicked city of Jackson, where a crime as awlul as the shooting from ambush of Medgar F.vrrs couid be committed, there was a man willing to give one of his lungs tn another man in the tl,'.i mn.hl tv uteri from a.ith due to cancer. I Thu is a strange woilcl. It contains much that is evil. It' also contains much that is i-iod. i Ira 0 Price Ten Cents 16 Pages I Studies Negro Killing Clues i WANDA BREED Contestant Loves Horses By RUTH KING A blonde and blue-eyed girl, who hasn't been bucked o'.l a horse in five years and who would i like to swim if she could use ai saddle, is number four contestant in line for queen of the Klamath Basin Junior Rodeo this year.

Her buckskin mare Cricket will play an important part in her appearance before the judges at the June 2.1 tryouts at the fair grounds, because Cricket can be relied upon to make the right moves at the right times. She is strictly a "pleasure horse," no fooling around with bovines. Wanda is July-born, the 17th in 104H and has lived In Klamath Falls nine years, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Herbert S.

They protested alleged police bru tality, exerted during a club swinging incident during a dem onstration Thursday, and asked again for consideration of eight racial demands. Thompson told them he would not consent to establishment of a bi-racial committee but promised that Negro policemen would be hired when "competent" officers can be found.

Flags seen flying in the business area today were erected by the Klamath Falls Jaycees at 4:30 a.m. The Jaycees each year put out the flags In annual obser vance of this national holiday. MacmillanWins Backing From Loyal LONDON UPII Loyal sup porters rallied behind Prime Min ister Harold Marmillan today against critics clamoring for his resignation because of the Pro fumo scandal. Apparently having weathered a critical cabinet crisis, the 69-ycar-old "unflappable Mac" won ack nowledged backing from highly respected Ird Ilitilsham and several other government minis ters. Reports persisted, however, of possible cabinet and rank and file revolts within the ruling Con servative Party as a result o the sex scandal and name-calling that have mushroomed from the re signation of War Minister John Profumo last week. A crisis at mosphere continued in some cir cles. "It's a good deterrent. A prison term is no good because they learn Irom experts. I believe in keeping them out of jail if I can. I don't want any youngster to have a record that will reflect on him in later years." "They knnwr their pants are go ing to be down, and that humil iates them," Tanner observed. Tanner said he did not believe in "cruel or cxce-sivc punish ment" and insisted a whipping did not lit into this category. "A spanking is never cruel if it is ronerlv done." he said. ' Tanner said he did not know if his "woridshed justice" was psychologically harmlul because "I'm not a doctor," He said, how ever, he would not order a spank ing for any olfendcr under 13 years. He said most of his cases have dealt with older boys. Spanking isn't Tanner's only unique punishment (or misliehav- ing youths. He also lias sentenced youthful offenders to "srrutibing tulate you on the successful be ginning of the new flight. We are closely following your flight and hope you feel well and success fully accomplish your task. 1 send you my kindest wishes.

Ncitlier would confirm nor de ny the reports after Thursday's crucial cabinet meeting, tlie sec ond in two days. Political observers believed ev-n one cabinet resignation could set off a cabinet revolt that could topple tlie government.

"K they go into (lie armed forces, they will get discipline, and that's the very thing for them," he said. Although Tanner sentenced Campbell to a fine ami 10 days in jail, tlie judge said he had worked out an arrangement with the sherilf whereby Campbell was separated from tlie other prisoners. He said Camibell also was free to leave the jail daily to check on the condition of the dog, which has been near death for a week. "Putting youthful ollenders In jail is not reform," Tanner said. "They must sit around there be ins 'd." "My father never spared the rod with me and I was not hurl by It." the judge said. be pleased to embrace you in our homeland." Khrushchcv himself lent sup- port to the speculation about a second space shot being in Lhe offing. The Soviet premier greeted Woodworkers of America struck St. Regis and U.S. Plywood 10 days ago after contract talks broke down The four other mem bers of the "Big Six," Weyer haeuser, International Paper, Rayonicr and Crown Zellerbach, then shut down in retaliation, claiming a strike against one was a strike against all. The IWA announced Thursday it had filed charges of unfair la bor practices against all six firms. Western Regional President Har-! vey Nelson said tne complaint charges the companies conspired! to close their operations by lock ing out union members illegally. Complaints were filed here and in Seattle. Nelson said the four which shut' down after the strike started sent letters to union locals which said the closure was designed "to pre serve the integrity of the associa tion." The union official noted that U.S. Plywood-owned or oper ated plants at Gold Beach and Cottage Grove, Ore., and Eureka. Calif., which employ non union help, have remained open. On another front, negotiators for the IWA met with officials of the Simpson Timber Co, here; Thursday and both sides reported afterward they were "hopeful' an agreement could be reached. Simpson is negotiating Independ ently. A company spokesman said dis cussions covered working condi tions as well as wages. He said the IWA asked a three-year con tract with a wage increase of 15 cents the first year, 7',i cents the! second year and a 3'k per cent increase the third year, plus other increases in certain skilled jobs. Simpson is scheduled to make counter-offer at another session hcra June 25.
