They never saw each other until his name appeared in a newspaper story of an "old-timers picnic" at Snohomish this Summer. After the long delay, the entire story fell hurriedly into place and the couple were married at Bremerton. (Christensen photo) AT HOME in Reno this week after their wedding in Bremerton, a few days ago, are Mr. and Mrs. C.

B. Crampton of 1725 Benjamin Franklin Dr. The couple first met in Snohomish, in 1903, but separated while still in their teens and never met again until the Summer of 1956. In the 50-year interval between courtship and marriage, Couple Wed After 50 Years Separation, Returns Here To Make Permanent Home He worked on more than 20: newspapers, among them the; Seattle Times, Chicago St. Louis Post Dispatch, Fort Worth, Record, Salt Lake City Tribune, Butte Miner andiof Nevada speech department the Sacramento Bee.

W. Richardson and Harry Oedekerk to re-open the Royal Nevada Hotel Casino, closed by money difficulties last New Year's Eve. LEASING CASINO They are leasing the casino operation for a month from William Simonds and Oedekerk. But the- lease can be can celled by Simonds, who currently controls the New Frontier, if the new group is not licensed by Jan. 1.

A total investment of $528,000 is planned. The board noted that Friedman and Richardson were sparkplugs in the original New Frontier deal, and Chairman Robbins Cahill objected, "we would be putting them into another operation when they haven't cleaned up the one they've got." Retiring Board Member New ell Hancock held the Royal Nevada group should be licensed because there is nothing Friedman and Richardson can do about the New Frontier since Simonds wrested control from them. The third board member, Wil liam Sinnott, went along with Cahill and made the motion to defer the application despite the pos sibility the Friedman group may lose an advantageous lease. SHOTGUNNING DEAL Of the New Frontier proposal, Cahill declared that "it looks like another shotgunning "But I'm willing to be shot- gunned on the New Frontier because it is in the public to keep it open, but I'll be darned if I will in the Royal Nevada," said Cahill. By "shotgunning" Cahill re ferred to the original transfer of the Frontier from the old to the new group.

The state tax commission approved this, he said, "with a shotgun at its back" be cause Las Vegas would have been hurt economically if the old group had gone bankrupt. Under the latest proposal to re finance the New Frontier, Mrs. Krupp will be associated with Louis Manchon, Las Vegas swim ming pool contractor, and Sidney Bliss of Las Vegas. Mrs. Krupp and Manchon are putting, up of which Manchon's 517,500 portion is be ing borrowed from her.

Bliss and five associates are putting up The associ ates are Lynn Bergerad, Robert Peccole, Hugh J. Conway, John Holler and Benjamin Hall, all of Las Vegas. Under the reorganization plan, Manchon will become president of the corporation, Bliss vice president and general manager and Mrs. Krupp treasurer. Simonds will remain as chairman of the board of directors.

Voting control will be shared by Mrs. Krupp and Manchon, the Bliss group and Simonds. The gaming board declined to permit immediate use of the new money on the grounds such action would commit it to license the new applicants. Besides, board members said, current stockholders are putting another $150,000 into the operation and this should tide it over until the new applications are properly studied.

Originally reported missing from her South Virginia street motel room, it was found at Center and Second streets by Grant Jacobson, 522 Lander who turned the timepiece over to police. cent meeting in Carson, bureiu officials said that the proposed cut-off had been approved. LOCAL NEEDS FIRST Robert Guinn, chairman of the chamber's highway committee, urged the resolution against the re-routing proposal.

Guinn said that local needs and economy must be given consideration in highway plans. He said there was no need to make a study of the bureau's re-routing plans because no one in Nevada would approve the plan. State highway engineer H. D. Mills had originally believed, following a meeting with the bureau in Washington, D.

that the route through the towns would remain unchanged. However, Mills was later informed by th bureau that a deferral in the case of Battle Mountain, Winnemucca and Lovelock had been granted. The chamber's board of directors voted unanimously to adorit the resolution "denouncing any changes in the route proposed by the Nevada state engineer and ac-" cepted by the U. S. Bureau of Public Roads." RUINOUS TO TOWNS The resolution states that the cut-off "would be ruinous to the economy of the towns in question and would have a serious effect upon the overall economy of the state." The board also resolved to ask, the Nevada congressional delegation to "take vigorous action" to stop the re-routing.

In other action, the board heard a report on the new shuttle train between Los Angeles and Las Vegas. The train has been put in operation by the Union Pacific Railroad to lighten travel on streamliners over the route. In an effort to induce travel on the shuttle train. Union Pacific is serving free meals to passengers on the all-coach route. E.

H. Walker, chamber statistician, said he had made formal protest of the Southern Pacific Railroad's application to increase freight rates from Reno to Hazen, Fallon, Thorne and points south to Mina. Walker said the issue has been taken to' the Nevada Public Service Commission for a ruling in the near future.

Miles made the statement at an informal discuseion following a public hearing in Portola Tuesday afternoon. About 20 attended. The proposition for a general route eliminating eight curves now considered dangerous by S.

S. Saunders, assistant district engineer, met with no protest. Saunders said the sharpest curve will have a radius of approximately 1200 feet as compared with 225 feet on the present road making a speed of 50 miles an hour possible with safety. The new stretch of highway will cover 5.86 miles. Since road projects first require approval by the state highway commission and allocation of funds following preparation of plans and specifications for the project and the advertising and acceptance of bids, indications were that this may be done in 1959 or soon after.

RED CROSS DRIVE SET FOR HUNGARIAN RELIEF were alone. ENT TO PICNIC This Summer, he went to Snohomish to attend an "old timers picnic." He could find no trace of Nora. "I didn't know whether she was still alive," he said. "I asked bald-headed men and grey-haired persons at the picnic about her, but none knew where she was." Thinking the quest was hopeless, he returned to Reno. It was a newspaper that finally provided the key to the past for Mr.

Crampton, a man who had devoted his life to printing. The story of the picnic at Snohomish, and a list of guests, found its way to Nora. "I wrote tb him right away," she said. "I didn't know but what he was sti 1 married, so I wrote to Mr. and Mrs." The rest of the story fell into place swiftly, after a 50-year delay, and the couple married in the First Baptist Church at Bremerton a few days ago.

They now live in Reno at 1725 Benjamin Franklin Dr. paign at this time," Mr. Berry-said, "because we have never had a special appeal of any kind in which the people of Reno and Sparks did not respond generously and immediately." Mr. Berry added that some of the large chapter contributors will be called by telephone and given an opportunity to con tribute and that at strategic places in the downtown area volunteers will be posted to take contributions. Reno city officials have already given their blessings to the special campaign, Mr.

Berry said this morning, and the chapter is pre pared to receive the relief funds today. All of the money collected na tionally will go directly for relief of the Hugarian people.

More than 15,000 persons in Austria and Hungary are being fed by the Red Cross each day and the number is expected to increase to 200,000 a day by Dec. 31.

Washoe's share in a S5 million national relief profram is S2591, it was announced today by Ben Berry, chapter chairman, who added he believes the money will be raised quickly, and without door-to-door solicitation.
