Supreme Court Declines Appeal On Jury Prejudice Charge Firm Gets Spill Work ALTURAS Paul Steel, manag er of the Modoc Fish and Wildlife, Refuge, announced this week that work will begin the first of July the construction of a new 50- foot concrete and steel spillway on Parker Creek. Steel said the contract for the onstruction had been let to the low bidder. Gill Construction Com pany of LaFayctte, Calif. Gill bid $18,580 for construction of the new structure which will be 10 feet wide and carry a five foot depth of water. The spillway now in use was built in 1928 by the Dorris ranch es. In the fall and w inter of 1962 the spillway washed out. Both times temporary rebuilding wasl done to alleviate the flooding and water loss. In 19U3, the spillway again washed out and was again temporarily dammed with rock and dirt fill. SUGAR UNKNOWN Sugar being still unknown.

Steel said Wednesday, "When it is completed, the new spillway will permit the maximum use of our water permit to the Dorris Reservoir and control 80 per cent1 of the spring run-off floods." He pointed out that it would be im possible to completely control all the water during extremely wet years when the run-off water can reach 5,000 second feet for short periods and floods the surround ing meadow lands. resulted in Anderson's conviction of second-degree murder.

An derson had previously been in volved in another shooting inci dent in which one man was crit ically wounded and a logger had his throat slashed. In his appeal, Anderson assert-; cd that the court did not observe the law in selecting a jury and that he was denied equal protec tion because Indians were not in cluded among the jury.

It continued, "The bald asser tion of systematic exclusion of a particular race is insufficient in the face of public records showing that Indians constituted a negli gible proportion of persons eligi ble for jury duty in Harney Coun ty." The court also remarked that Anderson had appealed his con viction twice before to the Su preme Court, and in both in stances the appeals were denied. In those appeals, Anderson did not present objections on the ground of prejudice. He should have raised those matters then, the court stated. In addition, Anderson and his counsel should have challenged (lie jury before instead of after its verdict, the court ruled. ASTERS 3 DOZ. $1.00 Dozen 50c Many Other Plants 207 E.
