HOLDING THEIR THIRD ANNUAL MEET- IXG in Reno for the first time, members of the board of directors of the Western Pacific Railroad are shown above as they arrived here Tuesday morning. Pictured left to right are Theodore Weisman, Lindsey W.

Cochran, Peter Chamber of Commerce Urged To Support Move Securing More Air Service for Reno Cost Outiined By School Board Property Owners Pay $345 Each For Connections It will cost property owners in the vicinity of Lakeside Drive, Erinkby and Berrum lane $345 each to connect into the sewer line which serves the new Anderson school, school board members were told at a meeting Tuesday night at the Babcock administration building. After working out a cooperative agreement with the City of Peno, the school district sometime ago agreed to pay its portion of installing the sewer line to the new school, located outside the city limits, planning to recover part of the expense from private property owners who might wish to tie in. COST $10,555.50 Total private use cost is or an estimated $6.25 per foot. Superintendent Earl Wooster told board members that 13. feet of the line will be for private use, and that deducting the cost of the sewer line to the school ($5 per foot for 275 feet) would amount to $1375.

Mr. Wooster noted that the, $343 per connection would be much less than the cost of installing septic tanks for sewage purposes. Board members reviewed a notice of completion for the Anderson school, and voted to sign the completion notice on the project, with a series of minor repairs to be made by both the contractor, J. C. Dillard, and architects, Lockard and Casazza.

A request from David Finch, principal at Reno high school, for a trip by the school band to Carson for Admission Day activities was approved. Board members were told the band was making a trip to Sacramento for the Christian Brothers football game at its own expense, and the band would go to Carson with funds originally appropriated for the yearly Dana xestivai which will not be held this year. PLAN CONFERENCE Considerable discussion was also given to a plan submitted by Rex Daniels. Reno hieh school publications director, for out-of- town publication of the school yearbook, the Re-Wa-Ne. RnaH members voted to table action until conferences could be held with local printing houses on the plan.

Mr. Daniels' request noted considerable expense could be saved by sending the publication to a yearbook printing firm in Kansas City, Mo. Board members approved of a plan to participate in a United Nations poster contest. The contest, sponsored by the Nevada Society for the United Nations, is for students in the intermediate and high schools. Superintendent Wooster told the board this was an approved part of the Americanism Droeram and th schools always took part in previous years.

Approval was given for Mrs. Ruth Wagner, director of th school system lunch Droieet. to attend a meeting of the Amer ican icnooi oods Association to be held at Denver. Oct. 31-Nov.

3. While there Mrs. Wagner will take part in forums on the composition of lunch menus and other food discussions. Recent changes in elementarv school report cards, suppestpd by teachers, were aonroved hr the board. This was concerned with a clearer definition of grading in penmanship, social studio and social habits and also ja further explanation of the marking system, the teachers suggestions showed.

2 The Reno police department was granted use of the high school gymnasium, free charge, for the annual variety which benefits the police widows and orphans fund. It was noted the police department turnishes the necessary personnel to prepare the premises for the production. Saturday work for administrative personnel was discussed thoroughly and the board granted permission to start a plan of employes alternating Saturday duty for a period of time, to de termine how such a plain works out. State Tax Charge Faced by Stacher BEVERLY HILLS, Oct 5. iJPi Gambler Joseph (Doc) Stacher has been charged with failing to file a California state income tax return for 1952.

Dep. Dist. Atty. Samuel May-erson said Stacher, of Beverly Hills and Las Vegas, failed to report a net income although he collected $20,000 from Hollywood's Earl Carroll theater of which he owns a third. A charge filed yesterday is a misdemeanor and merely accuses Stacher of failing to file a return before the deadline date.

A return must be made if the gross income is more than $5000. Shipton Service Funeral services for John (Jack) Henry Raymond Shipton were held Wednesday afternoon at two o'clock at the home chapel of Ross-Burke with the Rev. George C. Shroeder of St. Luke's Lutheran Church as clergyman.

Burial was Mountain View Emergency Feed Available in Northern State Ranchers in a wide area stretching across the northern rart of Nevada were declared eligible to participate in the drought emergency feed program by Ezra T. Benson, secretary of agriculture, Tuesday, Gov. Charles H. Russell has announced. His office received a telegram from Harvey Dahl, assistant to the director of the agriculture credit service, declaring that the secretary had extended last year's relief program to ranchers in all or part of six Nevada counties.

AREA OUTLINED The area includes Washoe county north of Highway 40 and east of 395, excluding the Truckee Meadows; all of Humboldt and Pershing counties; Eureka and Lander counties north of Highway 40 to Carlin, and Elko county north from Carlin on the west side of the Independence Mountains to Deep Creek and east to the Humboldt county line. The area includes, in the main, the region Governor Russell asked to be included in a drought emergency area after receiving recommendations from the state drought committee. The office of Sen. George W. Malone said today that in only two states, Texas and Nevada, is the drought condition considered serious enough to warrant extension of last year's emergency program.

The action makes ranchers in the area eligible to buy grain at less than market price, with the government supplying dealers out of federally-owned stocks. Nevada counties have been included in the drought emergency area by proclamation of the president for the past three years. Last year the drought area covered most of the cen tral, eastern and southern sec tions of the state. In 1953, 14 of Nevada's 17 counties were in the drought emergency area. Continued subnormal rainfall, with depleted water storage and drying ranges, has prevailed this year in the area included in the emergency program extension.

Jury Selection Slow Process CARSON Both sides were hopeful that a jury could be sworn tonight in the trial now underway in the Ormsby court of three convicts charged with murder. Questioning of prospective jurors continued this morning with the prosecution and the de fense each exercising five of their eight peremptory chal lenges to dismiss panel members. The attorneys now have questioned 89 veniremen, with all except 11 now seated in the box excused for cause. Three dismissals this morning came when panel members said they were opposed to capital punishment. The convicts, Theodore Gene cinrichs (Leibig) H.

Don Gulov-sen, and William R. Burman, are being tried under a Nevada law-holding that persons trying to escape from prison may be charged with first degree murder if any one is killed in connection with the escape attempt. They fled from the Nevada state prison Sept. 17 holding Guard George Miller as hostage. He was killed by rifle fire from other guards attempting to halt the fleeing convicts, all of whom were captured a few hours later.

The law also provides for the death penalty upon conviction. After the full jury is seated, an alternate will be chosen. North Las Vegan Dead in Crash LAS VEGAS, Oct. 5. JP) A 35-year-old North Las Vegas man, Tom Bourtmass, died Tuesday in the crash of his station wagon and a big truck and trailer seven miles south of here.

His passenger, Everett Dwight, 52, also of North Las Vegas, was hospitalized with a broken arm and a possible concussion. The truck driver, Chester Foster, 36, was not hurt. The crash occurred near the Highway 91 turnoff to McCarran Field. The cause was not determined immediately by sheriff's officers. facturer.

Drake purchased the prop- erities earlier in the Summer from Newton Crumley, state senator from Elko county. Ellis is the former owner of the Stockmen's hotel, and is a previous gambling licensee. War ren owns an Elko automobile agency. Gov. Charles H.

Russell, tax commission chairman, said the purchase and application had not been placed before the commission formally, but that he understood Ellis and Warren are operating the two establishments under an escrow agreement. In such plans, the money the purchasers pay for Nevada casinos remains untransferred until the new owners are approved by the gambling board and the tax commission. 1 Cahill and Newell Hancock, control board member, are in Las Vegas today. Pending before the gaming control board at its next meeting are applications from several major Las Vegas casinos, including transfer of the Boulder club, cne of Las Vegas' first legal gaming establishments, the Bonanza club, California club, more applications for interests in the New Frontier, and the Fremont hotel, a casino under construc tion on the Clark citys mam street. On another gambling front, attorneys for the Thunderbird hotel in Las Vegas, who are fighting a tax commission gam bling license revocation order, are preparing t6 question two former commission investigators about the case.

Keith Campbell, who was the onlv tax commission agent sta tioned permanently in Las Vt for several years, has been sud-Doenaed to appear for questioning in the office of Attorney Harry Claiborne, of the Thunderbird legal corps, on Oct. 10. A subpoena also has been issued to Ray Warren, Campbell's pre decessor in the Las Vegas post, but it has not yet been served. Campbell recently was licensed as a slot machine operator in Las Vegas, and Warren owns a two per cent interest in the Cal Neva Lodee at Lake Tahoe. Attorneys for the Thunderbird are attempting to prove that com mission action aimed at Marion Hicks, principal partner in the hotel, and Clifford Jones, former Democratic lieutenant governor, is politicaly inspired.

Judge Merwyn S. Brown will hear arguments on a motion to prohibit the commission from fol lowing through on its order oust ing Hicks and Jones, or cK the hotel's casino in Las Vegas on Oct. 17. Hotel attorneys subjected Ca hill to a lengthy questioning in Reno last week, drawing from him that he knew about a loan to Hicks by George Sadlo, Florida gambling figure, in 1948. The commission took its ouster action against Hicks on the ground that half the loan came from Jake Lansky, brother of Meyer Lansky, a notorious underworld figure.

Chief Thunderbird defense is that Hicks was unaware Sadlo part of the money from Lansky, and that no attempt was made by Hicks to hide the loan since he told Cahill about it more than two years ago. Minor Fires Occur in Reno Minor fires busied Reno fire men Tuesday afternoon and Wednesday morning. At 641 North William Hightower called firemen for a blaze in an overstuffed chair. Hosemen said they felt a drop ped cigarette had caused the damage. Al Nicholas, 524 Alameda called firemen when soot burned in his chimney.

Hosemen stood by until the fire burned out and suggested that perhaps the chim ney was not large enough to ac commodate all the units plugged in. At Mill and Center streets the brakes of a 1950 sedan overheated. Firemen used carbon dioxide to cool them off. Mrs. Russell Vaughn, 1320 South Virginia called firemen to her potato chip factory because the grease in a deep-fat fryer seemed to be overheating.

Firemen said no fire resulted, and they controlled the boiling oil by turning the machine off. Rites in Utah The body of Mrs. Rebecca Klingla will be accompanied to Evans and Early funeral home at Salt Lake City, Utah, services will be conducted on Saturday at 12 noon. Capriotti's base bid of $775, of $93,781. The latter figure Library Books Discussed by Reno Trustees Books on the shelves of the li brary at Reno high school evoked much discussion at a Tuesday night meeting of the trustees of Reno School District No.

10. Superintendent Earl Wooster presented a letter to the board from Col. Thomas W. Miller, di rector of the Veterans Employ ment Service for Nevada, listing several books on library shelves reportedly written by authors who are, or have been alleged members of Communist front or- organizations. Superintendent Wooster re cuested that the board establish a basic policy to handle such situ ations, which would list specific charges, such as is now in effect in New York state.

Board members took the sug' gestion under advisement, but de ferred final action on the matter until the full board can meet and discuss further action. The board also received a letter from the Peno Women's Civic Club, which urged an immediate investigation of the books, and also an inquiry into a pocket size magazine, "Read," currently in use at the Billinghurst school. Denied by school officials were charges that persons who had attempted to peruse the books in the library were denied access to it. Mr. Wooster said there was a policy at the school that visitors had to go through proper chan nels, which.

had, apparently, not been done by the visitors. Mr. Wooster said the channel ing policy was in elfect due to at tempts to keep undesirable in dividuals from loitering on school property. The letter from the Civic Club, it was reported, was prompted by an address given by Col. Miller.

Board members voted to write to the civic group and request that a representative of the school system be allowed the same privileges as was afforded Col. Miller. Superintendent Wooster said that charges about the pocket magazine "Read" stemmed from what Col. Miller said was a magazine article advocating the admission of Red China to the United Nations. Mr.

Wooster said it was his contention the magazine did no such thing, but presented both sides of the issue of Red China. He further said he furnished copies of the magazine to members of a service club and had asked them to sit as a jury as to whether the publication presented both sides of the question. injuries Fatal To Cafe Owner Head injuries received 10 days ago in an accident at his home on Lone Tree lane proved fatal this morning to Francois Rey, 50, owner of the Moulin Rouge cafe in Reno. Mr. Rey did not regain con sciousness after he was kicked by a cow he was milking.

He died in a local hospital. A native of Switzerland, Mr. Rey had lived in Reno for 14 years He was president of the Rey Pieterre restaurant in New York City. Mr. Rey was a member of Reno lodge No.

597, BPOE, and Reno lodge No. 14, IOOF. Survivors include his widow, Mrs. Glena E. Rey of Reno; three brothers, Louis and Antoinne Rey, both of New York City and Henry Rey of Switerland; and four sis ters, all of whom live in Switzer land, Mrs.

Phillip Rey Bouvin, Mrs. Mary Pey Barras, Mrs. Jo-sette Rey Barras and Mrs. Saus-tick Cardonnier. He also leaves a nephew, George Rey, of Reno.

Funeral srevices will be an nounced by Ross-Burke Co. Theft Reported From Vehicles Two automobile burglaries were reported to Reno police Tuesday. I. Rr Smith of Carson report ed a $135 Geiger counter missing from his car parked at Third and Center streets. Fred B.

Martin, 326 W. Sixth St. told police a 30-30 rifle, wrapped in a blanket, was stolen from the rear of his truck. He valued his loss at $60. in the six months reserve months period.

Members of the board also approved estimates for two additives to the construction of the school, which will be situated between Vassar St. and Bresson avenue. OTHER BIDS MADE Other contractors bidding, with base bids and alternates in that order were as follows: E. H. Moore Son, $790,000 W.

Wine Construction Co. of Reno, S7S8.486 5101,937: Walker Boud win Construction Co. of Reno, S804.948 $103,762: McDonald Brothers, $810,750 $101,250, Bids on the project were origi nally sought several months ago, but all figures submitted exceed ed bonding limitations and trus tees at that time voted to make necessary architectural changes end again advertise for bids on the school. Original bids for construc tion ranged from a high of $968, 000 to $941,000. Action on the bids was the first item in a lengthy agenda of the school board.

The meeting con eluded near midnight. Trustees Robert Drake, Dr. Silas Ross and Gordon Thompson waded through a variety of school problems, ranging from what to do with alleged subversive books on the shelves at the Reno high school library to a discussion of admin istrative employes working on Saturday. A request from residents of the Hillsborough subdivision, just east of the race track, for some sort of transportation for 31 school children in the area. prompted board charman Drake to call a special meeting of the entire board to discuss the school transportation system.

Ray Ricker, representing par ents in the area, requested the transportation. He said students involved must travel approxi mately two miles to attend classes at Orvis Ring and Northside schools, and pass several hazards. The board members expressed complete sympathy with Mr. Ricker's problem, but pointed out that additional transportation for any students would be a problem The board informed Mr. Ricker he would hear more after the general meeting on transportation.

It was also noted that there was a possibility all school transporta tion would have to be eliminated, because of a budget revision which will cut $217,000 from the school district, in line with tax commission adjustments to meet state tax limits. KEEP OLD SCHOOL A discussion ensued on the sale of the old Anderson school and board members voted to keep the property on South Virginia road, noting there was a possibility the buildine might be pressed into service next year, because of over crowding of some sections in the recently completed new Anderson school on Berrum lane. Earl Woo-ster, superintendent, told board members he had received several calls relative to the sale of the property and requested the board tc make a decision as to whether the property would be retained. In other matters, a walkway was approved for the Peavine school in the northwest area through the Robinson property. The school district will work in conjunction with the City of Reno on the project and will furnish fence posts from the Vaughn site to fence off pasture land there, The board noted it had received excellent cooperation from the city engineering department on this and other matters and re quested that Superintendent Wooster write a letter of thanks to the engineering department.

The board also approved trips to Elko and San Diego, for certain members of the administrative staff to attend conferences at no expense to the school district. Further questioning revealed the cards to have been in the Reade car, which had been reported stolen by Daly City police. Junkins and Smyth admitted abandoning the car, a 1952 model, 10 miles from Austin enroute to Ely. Officers said they found a five inch knife up Smyth's sleeve. The boy told police he always carried it there.

Junkins told officers he was on parole after conviction of a previous automobile theft. Both boys were charged with grand automobile theft, and Smyth was also booked as a runaway juvenile. presented to the Civil Aeronau tics Board now under study, Anglim said he believed the hear ings would result at least a regional carrier being added to the 'present Reno service. WASHOE TROJECT Information on the $43,500,000 Washoe reclamation project, hearings on which will be con ducted by a U. S.

Senate sub committee in Reno Oct. 17, was offered by George Devore repre- senting the Carson Truckee Water Users Association and Morley W. Griswold, represent ing the Nevada Fish and Game Commission. unsworn said the bill in congress providing for the project should be amended in that the title should be changed to indi cate one of the purposes is the development of fish and game in this area, minimum flows to the Pyramid lake region should be increased and nearly $2,000,000 more should be spent on the rec lamation project. Griswold said the effect the project may have on wildlife in the area interests the fish and game commission.

It is of vital importance that the recreational assets of the area be protected, he declared. Devore said that, provided the amount of water available for use is not reduced and liability is not increased, water users would have no objection to the fish and game people's proposals There will be significant eco nomic benefits for this- area if the project is approved and Peno will receive added flood protec tion, he said. FOUR LANE HIGHWAY Chamber President Emory Branch read a letter to the direct or from State Highway Engineer Huston Mills reviewing the status of highway planning in this area. Plans have been completed for widening the Reno-Carson highway from Echo's to Steamboat Springs and bids on the extension will be sought by the highway department in October, Mills de clared. Plans are also developing for extending the four-lane highway east of Sparks, although right-of-way difficulties have been encountered.

Efforts to speed the improve ment of Highway 40 west of Reno were urged by the directors and efforts will be made to arrange a meeting between highway officials and chamber directors on this problem. It was suggested by Mayor Len Harris that the cham ber promote a publicity campaign to promote development of Highway 40. The problem of smoke in the Truckee Meadows is increasing. the directors were told by Anglim, Selby Calkins and Curtis Farr. Several directors said they would favor a smoke-control ordinance which would not impose an undue burden on existing businesses.

Such an ordinance was offered to both Reno and Sparks city councils last Spring but no action has been taken. Western Pacific Directors Hold Session in Reno Western Pacific Railroad Co. is engaged in industrial development in various communities and hopes to be of assistance in formulating industrial plant construc tion in the Reno-Sparks area. Western Pacific President F. B.

Whitman said here Tuesday night. President Whitman in a brief talk at a dinner session in the Prospectors room of the -Hotel Riverside, told a group of railroad and Reno civic nd busi ness leaders that this area has promise for future development. Factors in the picture, he declar ed include plenty of water, a stable and plentiful labor supply and plenty of land; all which he said are attractive to manufac turers in considering plant loca tions. The dinner session in the eve ning followed a meeting held by the board of directors of Wes'ern in Rer i Tuesday morning. It was the first meeting of the di rectors ever held in Reno and they voted a dividend of seven cents a share on common stock, to be paid Nov.

15 to stockholders of record Nov. 1. Also approved was a roadway and equipment modernization budget for $6 mil lion for 1956.

F. Kummer, who has been representing the brotherhood in negotiations with the Western Pacific, said some 250 engineers are employed by the railroad. The national mediation board has conducted talks between union and management in the 5-months-old dispute over re quested changes in working rules. Kummer said all efforts at reach ing a peaceful settlement "so far have proved extremely disappointing." Cities that would be affected by the engineers walkout include San Francisco, Salt Lake City, Reno and Sacramento. SENT TO FAR EAST Aboard the destroyer USS George K.

MacKenzie when she departed for a tour of duty in the Far East September 13 was Charles E. Ames, seaman, USN, of Alturas, Calif. Efforts to secure more air service for Reno should be continued by the Reno Chamber of Commerce, the board of directors of the chamber was told Tuesday by Morgan Anglim, vice president. Reno and the chamber should get permanently in the air service picture here and should begin appealing for north-south service, Anglim declared. The directors also discussed the proposed Washoe Reclamation Project, reviewed highway construction plans and expressed alarm over the growing smoke problem in the Truckee Meadows in their weekly luncheon meet ing.

Anglim, who represented Reno in hearings in Washington on the Denver service case noted that the C. of C. spent about 510,000 on the case, financing most of the action taken on behalf of Reno for additional air service east and west. With arguments Problem Faced By Commission Washoe county commissioners wrestled with a host of problems Wednesday morning, but mentioned their big one, budget cut ting, only in passing. The commissioners are faced with slicing some $330,000 off a budget figured at a tax rate of $2.32, as a result of getting a $2 rate through Nevada Tax Commission action in bringing the local subdivisions into $5 mini-mums.

TLAN SESSION Commissioner Ernest Kleppe indicated that budget slashing sessions are scheduled later in the week, following return of Accountant Sam Kafoury, the county's financial advisor. In a definite action the accepted the bid of the Reno Printing Co. to print the tax list at $59 a page plus charge for covers, a nearly $6,000 job. Silver State Press bid $61.50 a page including covers. The mmissioners agreed to consider at a special meeting a s'-tement being prepared by the Reno Chamber of Commerce for present-tion at the esnate sub-c.

rmittee hearing here Oct. 14 on S497, the senate bill providing for the Washoe water project, with an eye to concurring. OUTLINE PLAN Emory Branch and William Brussard, the chamber president and manager respectively. aD- peared at the meeting arid gave a rough outline of the statement. ch said they hoped would be accepted by the county, Reno and Sparks as a joint statement.

Branch said the statement would stick primarily to benefits to accrue to the Reno-Sparks area as a result of added upstream storage and the Truckee channel clearance provided under an army engineer plan which has had congressional approval, but on the basis that it will go into operation only in conjunction with the storage project. Branch said the statement would point out that Reno needs flood protection even worse than it did in 1950, because some 000,000 in added construction now is near the river, and would point out other benefits in backing the bill. The senate bill lacks a pro vision for fish and wildlife re source protection, and Branch said an amendment would be backed for this purpose. Hearing on a similar house bill is scheduled here Nov. 12.

Sheriff C. W. Young told the commissioners there is a tremendous traffic problem on Berrum Lane because of the new Ander-(Turn to page 14, coL 4) Youths Stopped by Police Charged With Vehicle Theft Two young Californians were arrested by Reno police early Wednesday morning and charged with stealing a car in Daly City, which is near San Francisco, several days ago. The youths, Donald S. Junkins, 18, and William P.
