She was en route from Canada to her Glendale, home when she stopped to ride an excursion train into the Calapooya Mountains of Oregon in celebration of her 85th birthday. Railroad officials informed her the 35-mile round trip was only available on weekends except on a charter basis. Mrs. Arbogast unflinchingly pulled out her checkbook and wrote a $600 draft. She gathered the three members of her own family and invited a family of four staying at the Village Green Inn, and the train which normally carries 100 persons chugged out of the station.

Officials of the Oregon, Pacific Eastern Railroad, which runs the attraction, provided lunch for its eight passengers and then went one better they threw in a birthday cake. Sam Sheppard patient wins $250,000 damages WARREN, Ohio (AP) A Girard boy and his parents have been awarded $50,000 in damages by a Trumbull County Common Pleas Court judge on a complaint that the boy suffered permanent arm damage following treatment by the late Dr. Samuel H. Sheppard. Sheppard at the time of the treatment was practicing at the Youngstown Osteopathic Hospital Association following his release from prison.

He had been convicted of slaying his first wife, Marilyn, July 4, 1954, but won acquittal in a second trial in November 1966. Judge Reed Battin awarded 14-year-old James Evans $220,000 and his parents, Robert and Margaret Evans, $30,000. Young Evans was treated in 1969 for an injury to his right arm, and a cast put on it allegedly cut off circulation. He had to receive corrective treatment to save the arm, and his use of the limb has been impaired for life. Pioneer Tucsonian Mrs.

A brief work stoppage this week by 54 trusties ended with promises of two cookies at lunch instead of one, tailor-made instead of roll-your-own cigarettes and cooler summer uniforms.

But the jailers refused to do away with 'The Purple Death," as sandwich spread. "Some of the guys don't like the cook mixing up the peanut butter and jelly together. But he feels, 'Why spread the peanut butter and then spread the so he blends them," said Lt. John O'Rourke, the jail commander. Obituaries Walter dies in SAN FRANCISCO (UPI) Dr.

Walter J. Freeman, internationally known psychiatrist and a pioneer in the use of lobotomies, died yesterday of cancer. He was 76. Freeman, often called the "father of psychosurgery," was the first to perform lobotomies, a controversial operation in which nerve fibers of the frontal lobes of the brain are severed to relieve anxiety, depression and suicidal tendencies. The doctor's work -caused controversy because lobotomies caused irreversible damage to creative centers in the brain.

The surgical approach to mental illness was virtually abandoned in the 1950s when dug therapy became widespread. Freeman also introduced insulin shock therapy for the treatment of schizophrenia. Born in Philadelphia, he devoted his life to the study of the biology of mental diseases. His grandfather, Dr. William W.

Keen, performed cancer surgery on President Cleveland. Freeman moved to California in 1954. He equipped his camper as an office and crossed and recrossed the nation, following patients into the hills of West Virginia, the deserts of New Mexico and the ghettos of Los Angeles. Freeman continued his practice in Santa Clara County, where he was instrumental in building El Camino Hospi- tal. Jasper Deeter LIMA, Pa.

The court is convinced that the order proposed by Pulitzer will assure complete divesture of KVOA-TV at an early date and assure, until that time, competition between Star and KVOA-TV." Both the government and Pulitzer requested that the publishing firm be given 10 more months in which to sell the television station. The government suggested that after that time Pulitzer would automatically be divested of the Star. Pulitzer's plan, which Walsh accepted, would provide that if a sale were not completed within the 10 months, the television station would be placed in a court-appointed trusteeship under which all profits from the station would be contributed to a trustee-designated educational institution or charity.
