WALL STREET
NEW YORK (UPI) - Stocks
worked their way out of the red
in a spurt of heavy last-minute
trading today.
Steels were mixed. Motors were
slightly easier but above their
lows. Chemicals ran contrary to1
the easier trend which prevailed
through most of the session and
finished fractions better.
Sunray DX Oil and Wilcox Oil
improved tome but Barber Oil
shaded. Control Data backed off
sharply. IBM held close
Wednesday's closing level as did
Electronic Associates and Litton.
Minneapolis-Honeywell fared well.
Wall Street Chatter
NEW YORK (UPI - Kenneth
Ward of Hayden, Stone & Co.
feels failure of the Dow-Jones
rail average to participate more
actively in the current upswing
probably will act as a corrective
or at least retarding factor.
Meanwhile, Ward says, the
main point to keep in mind is
that present indications point to
higher levels before the year end
and there still is room for price
appreciation in stocks which have
not participated in the advance
very aggressively.
Martin Gilbert of Van AUtyne.
Noel & Co. believes there will be
intermediate setbacks and fluctu
ations but the main trend is still
upward. Gilbert says, that in view
of the strong background, it
seems probable that a major re
versal is in the offering over the.
immediate period ahead.
Moody's Stock Survey feels it
is wise for investors to maintain
some buying power for selective
opportunities which may arise in
coming months.
Richard T. Leahy of J. W
Sparks Co. anticipates a mod'
est corrective phase over the
near term which could carry the
Dow-Jones industrial average
back to the 715-720 level.

Officers
His case was continued in Munici

narrative he gave:
Upon receiving a call at 2:38
a.m. that there was a man pound
ing on the tavern's door, the of
ficer investigated. He gave Wig
gen a brief sobriety test and
placed him under arrest for drunk
enness. Wiggen Tursed and swung
at him. Another officer arrived
and after a scuffle, Wiggen was
placed in the paddy w agon.
On the way to the station, Wig
gen again (ought, cursed and
threatened the officers. At the sta
tion, he refused to leave the pad
dy wagon. Finally he was dragged
out and into the booking room.
There, Wiggen refused to turn
over the contents of his pockets
and again began swinging. The
fight moved out into the alley adja
cent to the station and at one
point Wiggen stunned one police
man with his fists. Finally, the
officer struck Wiggen with a sap
and the man wa6 draRged into a
cell.
Wiggen later was taken to
Klamath Valley Hospital for an
examination, but the doctors re
ported lie wasn't injured by the
blow.

to Hillside Hospital where he was
examined by doctors and released
later the same day.
The fire that destroyed t h e
dwelling which brought seven
pieces of riiobile fire-fighting
equipment from the Klamath
Falls, Klamath County, and King-
sley Field fire departments and
the Klamath Forest Protective As
sociation was believed to have
been caused by defective wiring.
It was detected shortly before
noon as Rosemary K u r i c h.
daughter of the Lavers, went to
tlie rear of the house and noted
that flames had engulfed t h e
porch. She summoned her fa
ther, -elsewhere in the house, and
in a frenzy of motion Laver tried
to control the blaze.
Failing that, he began frantic
ally moving the family possessions
from the dwelling to the street
outside of the house.
Meanwhile, Miss Kurich tele
phoned the Stewart - Lenox Fire
Department, two blocks away
and then reported the (ire to her
mother at a doctor's office in
Klamath 'Falls.
Meantime, crews of the Stewart-
Lenox Fire Department had ar
rived at the burning building, but
the fire, which had a fast start,
was already razing tlie major
portion of the lower level and'was
surging into the second story of
the house.
Thereafter, fire-fighting teams
and equipment from other fire
departments in the county began
arriving at the scene.
Firemen were unsuccessful In
their efforts to contain the fire
because it had too great a head
start and also because there were
no hydrants in the area. Water
used in combating the flames
was provided by pumper trucks
from KFPA and Ihe various
fire departments providing assist
ance to Stevart-Ienox.
The Lavers are on county wel
fare and have been invited to
reside with neighbors until they
find other housing. The value of
the duelling gutted by fire has
not been disclosed.

sion.
To pilot an airliner, Joe would
need a commercial flying license
As a real estate salesman, Joe
would need a license from the
Real Estate Commission.
And finally, if Joe entered the
service instead of finding a job
he would need a whole batch of
papers such as classification pa
pers and a selective service card
No matter where Joe decides
to go and no matter what he
decides to do, he will have to
take out papers in the form of a
license or a permit.
But finally, Joe determines
where his life's work lies and
after obtaining the proper li
censes, be goes to work.
And after a few years, Joe tires
of his bachelor's existence and.
finding the right girl, decides to
take one of the biggest steps of
his life marriage.
But first, of course, there is
the matter of blood tests and a
marriage license.
By and by, there are chil
dreneach of which must be
duly licensed and the Doe fami
ly decides to take a vacation.
The problem of where to go
will be one which will occupy
the family for many weeks.
If it is to be a camping and
fishing trip, there are fishing li
censes to obtain and camping
and fire permits to be secured.
A trip to Canada or Mexico
will mean visas and special li
censes for the car, plus an entry
permit.
In Joe's community life, he
wHl come across many situations
which require licenses.
If his club wants to throw a
dance, there will be a special
liquor license.
A Fourth of July parade win
mean a parade permit.
And so Joe s life goes on-
interrupted every once in a while
by the necessity ol obtaining an
other license.
He buflds a house but must
first get a building permit.
A burglar terrorizes the neigh
borhood and Joe gels a gun per
mit for a pistol.
He takes up short-wave radio
or flying and must obtain federal
licenses for those activities.
The purchase of a boat or trail
er will mean more licenses.
Joe's children grow up and he
helps them with their bike and
dog licenses, then their first driv
er's licenses.
Joe grows old and tired.
And finally. 70 years and more
than 200 licenses after he was
born, Joe dies.
He is through with licenses.
But licenses aren't through with
him. There must be a death cer-
tificale before Joe is laid to rest.

Ted DeMerritt, chairman of the
County Library Board, told the
Herald and News today.
DeMerritt's statement followed
the regular meeting of the board
last night after it decided to "take
no formal action" on a request by
Mrs. Cote that she remain on
Ihe staff in a lesser capacity
than that of county librarian. The
request was made in a letter to
the board signed by Mrs. Cote.
DeMerritt said briefly that the
board decided to let the matter
drop because "it was in the in
terest of the smooth and efficient
operation of the library to do so."
Mrs. Cote's dismissal is be
lieved to have been in accord with
a recommendation made in a re
cent study on the merging of
the city and county libraries, al
though the board has declined to
make any formal statement re
garding her discharge.
The study recommends that the
librarian to be in charge of the
library following the merger
should have a degree in library
science. Mrs. Cote has no such
degree. Mrs. Karczag, who was
hired, by the Klamath County
Court from Lihuekauii, Hawaii,
received her bachelor degree in
library science from the Univer
sity of Michigan at Ann Arbor.
Mrs. Cote's discharge, effective
Aug. 31, set off a wave of public

Mrs. Cote
was to be arraigned in a district
court later today on a charge of
being drunk on a public highway.
Oregon State Police said that
Becham was eastbound on Old
Midland Road about 11 p.m. when
he observed a Great Northern
Railroad train motionless along
the crossing. He stopped his auto
mobile at the crossing and tlien
became so enraged at being de
tained that he rolled his car into
the train, police said.
Trainmen reported the incident
by radio to the local offices of the
railroad, which then summoned
police. Becham was apprehended
and booked on the drunk charge
at the county jail.
City Plans
Boat Ramp
Extension
The boat launching ramp at the
Upper Klamath Lake marina will
be extended early next month to
allow year-around use.
Parks and Recreation Director
Gary Woodring said that during
the late summer and early fall
months the lake drops .so far
that use of the existing 55-foot
ramp is marginal.
The new project will extend the
ramp 15 feet to allow boats easy
access to the lake.
City crews Wednesday began
pouring concrete "planks" which
will be hooked together to form
the extension. The work will be
done early next month when the
lake is at its lowest point.
Grass Fire
City firemen early Wednesday
afternoon extinguished a grass
fire on the banks on the canal in
the 1200 block on Pine Street.
There was no damage.
