George REMAfBLUC-REPUGL1C N. Wednesday, November 4, 1959 The Arizona Republic Page 37 Cuban Regime In U.S. 'Out' Fair Secretary, Dies needed to be done, we did if we could afford it." Sound economy for the city government was almost a fetish with him. "We want to do everything we can to help Mesa grow in an orderly way. There always were lots of things we ought to do in the council, but you just can't hurry those things up too much.

We have to do what we can afford to do, on our income. "Running a city is just like running a business. Can't grow-if you can't pay your bills." He maintained his interest in golf and in the Mesa Golf and Country Club even after he broke his ankle several years ago. He was a member of the Southside Sheriff's Posse and Maricopa County Sheriff's Posse, and the Mesa Rotary Club. He owned a Palomino horse for many years.

HE WAS former president of the Arizona Pharmaceutical Association and the Arizona Municipal League. In addition to his wife, Clara Piatt, and his son, George William here, he is survived by two other sons, Dr. Clifford Goodman, Chandler, and Dr. Harold Goodman, Phoenix; two daughters, Mrs. Sue Pomeroy, Mesa, and Mrs.

Makes me think maybe I didn't do such a bad job after all." It was largely through his efforts, coupled with those of William Menhennet, then secretary of the Mesa Chamber of Commerce, that the land on which Williams Air Force Base is located was obtained for the base. Speaking of that, he said, "Bill Menhennet and I got in my car and saw 27 people over in California, clear to San Francisco, to get options on that land. "The City of Mesa bought the land, just to get the base for the government. It has paid off, too, in the trade which has come to Mesa from the base." HE WAS instrumental, too, in obtaining the land for Falcon Field, which was used as a training field for British air cadets during World War II.

Speaking of the city's growth and the work it took, he said, "We just kept going and what SEEKS LAURELS Jacqueline- (Pinkv) Gar- LAURELS Jacqueline (Pinky) trants of Laurelwood Acres at Chatsworth, Calif.

Flag To Shreds PANAMA (AP) Panamanian demonstrators attacked the U.S. WASHINGTON (UPI)- ine btate Department yes terday warned Cuban refugees opposed to Fidel Cas tro against trying to set up! any government-in-exile in the United States. Lincoln White, spokes man lor the department, said the United States has not sanctioned such action, and setting up a government-in-exile without permission would violate U.S. sovereignty. White spoke out on the heels of newspaper reports that Emilio Nunez Portuondo, former Cuban ambassador to the United Nations under the Batista regime, planned such a move, 1 Nunez Portuondo, who lives here, denied earlier that he had any such plans.

He said he knew it would be contrary to U.S. law and that he would not commit such a violation. Nunez Portuondo has a perman ent resident's visa authorizing him to stay in this country. He pub lishes a weekly called Latin American Events, which he said is devoted ot fighting communism in Latin America. The former Batista official said he was opposed to Castro "be cause his is a completely Com munist government." WHITE SAID in a brief state ment that establishment of "foreign government, or gov-ernment-ln-exile.

within U.S. ter ritory "would violate the sov ereignty of the United States and run counter to international law." He said the United States had given no such consent, implied or otherwise, and does not intend to. White declined to comment on reports that the Cuban government had seized some U.S. mining property yesterday. He said the State Department had not received an official report but was "following these matters closely and will give careful study to possible effects they may have." Relations between the United States and Cuba reached a low point after Castro charged that U.S.-based planes had dropped leaflets on Havana and "bombed" the city and other areas of the island.

Castro accused the United States of countenancing such actions. The United States denied the and said it deeply re gretted one incident it to confirm, the leaflet Havana. was aDie 'raid" on Two Guilty Of False Ads TWO PHOENIX furniture deal ers, found puilty on misdemeanor charges of fraudulent advertising, will sentenced at 1:30 p.m. to day hy Justice of the Peace Al Flood.

Goodman, 64, died yesterday in his home here, 528 N. Grand of a heart attack. He was executive secretary of the Arizona State Fair Commission and in charge of the Arizona State Fair now in progress in Phoenix, at the time of his death. Mr. Goodman, born in St.

David to pioneer Mormon parents, had lived in Mesa since April 30, 1924. HE SERVED on the Mesa city council for 16 years, from 1938 until his first defeat in 1956. He was out of office four years, from 1948 to 1952, when he ran again for the council and was elected for another four-year term. During the years from 1938 to 1956, he served as mayor 12 years. He was appointed executive secretary of the fair commission in April.

1956, following his loss in the 1956 council election by one vote after a recount. Mayor E. J. (Bert) Brown of Mesa said yesterday, "Mesa has lost a fine and loyal servant in the death of Mr. Goodman.

He will be greatly missed in this community to which he gave freely of his time and his efforts through the years. "His main interest always has been the welfare of Mesa. The city owes a great deal to his interest, i good business sense, his far-seeing efforts." The flag at the city hall here will fly at half-staff until after services for the former mayor tomorrow. MR. GOODMAN, with his parents and brothers and sisters, moved from St.

David to Saf-ford in 1905, where he lived until moving to the Phoenix area as a cotton grower in 1920. He married Clara Piatt, daughter of a Mormon physician, Dr. William Piatt, in Saf-ford on June 30, 1916. In 1923. Mr.

Goodman went to school in Los Angeles to become a registered pharmacist and in 1924, he moved his family to Mesa. On June 21. 1924, he opened the Apache Drug Co. at 125 W. Main.

He operated the store until its sale to his son, George William (Bili) last Sept. 1. Following his election to the council in 1936, he was elected mayor by his fellow council members in 1938 and served two years. He ran again in 1940 and was mayor in 1943 and 1944. He fought his "hardest fight" for re-election, he often said.

in 1941 but was victorious. He again was mayor during his final two years of this term. "IN ALL those 12 years." he once recalled, "I didn't miss more than four or five council meetings and those were because I was sick." He often remarked he didn't know why he ran again and again. "Guess I like the job," he would say with a shy, almost apologetic smile. "Sort of makes me feel good the folks elected me again and Icarn languages perfectly and study archaeology, which to me is the most romantic of all subjects." He contrmplatrs his college career probably in Spain as he zooms about the world dmng his TV films.

Every year, searchers are called out to look for numerous lost hunters. While many are inexperienced hunters who wander away from their friends, a surprising number of experienced, Out To Beat Labor Foes DETROIT (UPI) James hunt, nobody thought to advise us of his return." OTHER experienced hunters say a major cause of getting lost is an effort to keep moving after a storm strikes. One points out that a hunter could usually find his way out after a storm if he would stay put because he knows how he got there in the first place.

Another said hunters become lost because they fail to uss proper landmarks. He pointed out that ground-level landmarks may be covered up by snow or be hidden by a hill, the safest landmarks are mountaintops or other high marks which can be seen from a distance. There's a certain amount of foolishness involved, too. Sorrells says that often when bringing lost or stranded hunters out of a stormswept area, they have to stop other hunters trying to get in.

The nationalist, Jury Calls No Witness In Lynching POPLARVILLE, Miss.

(UPI) An all-white Pearl River County grand jury yesterday finished its investigations and apparently de clined to indict anyone for the lynching of Mack Charles Parker. A usually-reliable source said the 18-member grand jury had finished its consideration of criminal bills of indictment and would sub mit a report tomorrow. The grand jury recessed for the day at 2 p.m. The grand jury, meeting behind closed doors, did not call any of the more than 60 FBI agents who took part in a month-long investigation of the Parker lynching last spring. BECAUSE the grand jury actsj in secret, officials would not tell newsmen even when it would convene.

But it was learned that the panel consideration ot cases before it apparently was ended without true bills being returned, in the Parker case. A reliable source said the grand hnH hearH all witnesses in every case it had decided to con sider, and that these apparently did not include the lynching which drew woriawiae aurnuon iu ruy The FBI withdrew from the case after the Justice Department rcporlvd it faile, fedc.ra aWj, hi a Mi una inai had been violated.

And, they say, there's usually a storm involved.

CLIFF SORRELLS, chief en-forcement officer of the Arizona Game and Fish Commission, says it's a hard question to answer. "Maybe they haven't experienced a really rough storm, although they are experienced woodsmen." he said. "They can't see and they seem to panic. Then they are just as bad as someone who doesn't know anything. "Some of them have bragged about what great hunters they and don want the outside world to know that they are lost.

They won't even admit to themselves that they are lost. If thry would just admit it to them selves, they might be all right." SORRELLS, who probably has taken part in more hunter searches than any other An-zonan, said that in many cases the hunts are unnecessary. Hunters tell friends they'll camp at a certain place, but usually show up about 50 miles away, he said. Others give family or friends a probable date of return then decide to spend a few more days hunting. "Several times after hunting for a guy for several davs have found out he has been home he time.
