U.S. Jet Fighter
Reported Missing
CHITOSE, Japan, June 26—OH—
A U.S. airforce ejt fighter is miss-
ing off northern Japan, in the same

down an American B-29 19 months
ago.
There was no suggestion so far
that the fighter had run into trou-
ble with Soviet aircraft.
The airforce said the pilot of the
B-86 Sabre jet had radioed last
shortly after noon that he was off
the eastern tip of the northern
Japanese island of Hokkaido, some
20 miles from the Russian-held
Kurile islands. He then had about
two hours’ fuel left.

Plumbing Cuts Value
Of Older Houses
DES MOINES, June 26-W-The
secretary of the Iowa Association
of Plumbing Contractors warns
owners of older homes to look at
the plumbing before getting ex-
cited about the prospect of mak-
ing a neat profit by selling on the
current high market.
Lawrence Foley said although
the older houses sometimes have
other advantages, they cannot
compete with newer homes on
plumbing.
He said few buyers are willing
to pay as much or almost as much
for an old house as they would a
new one if they have to make a
heavy investment to bring the
plumbing up to date. He said they
expect the seller to have that done.
Grandmother
Trains Horses
For A Living
NEW YORK, June 26-tW-Clara
Adams turns horse sense into dol-
lars.
Mrs. Adams, a 65-year-old grand
mother, ia one of the few women
steeplechase trainers in the nation
She's been at it for 17 years and
has no thought of retirement.
"1 love horses too much to stop
now,” said Mrs. Adami, a small
white-haired woman. “And l‘m
having too much fun.”
Mrs. Adams’ “students” race
from spring to late fall in New
York, New Jersey and Delaware.
Right now, she’s working at New
York’s Belmont park. During the
winter, she trains new jumpers and
doctors older ones, usually at
training grounds in North or South
Carolina.
"I’m a gypsy—I go wherever the
horses go,” she said in an inter-
view.
Bareback Shocker
Clara Adams has ridden horses
all her life. She remembers driv-
ing a carriage to the station to
meet her father every night dur-
ing her childhood in Rutherford,
N.J. In those days, women rode
sidesaddle. “I shocked my rela-
tives by riding bareback,” said
Mrs. Adams.
With her love of horses, it’s no
wonder she married a man who
has the same affection for them.
Her husband Frank ran polo and
hunt cltibs in Connecticut, before
turning to steeplechase training.
Clara used to help, but she didn’t
have a trainer’s license. Then her
husband became ill, and Clara was
not satisfied with the job the hired
trainer was doing.
“I figured if I had to pay the
bills, I ought to have something to
say about the work,” she said.
That decision launched her ca-
reer.
The Adams' son, Frank—called
"Dooley”—also has made horses
his career. Clara says with pride,
“Dooley is the nation’s leading
steeplechase rider—and the only
one who hag raced for aeven
straight years.”
Patnntfal Jockeys
Daughter Joan also rides, and
once was considered as good or
better than Dooley. She now is
married to an airforce major,
Frank Ketcham, and is living in
Japan with their two boys. Dooley
has a son who is only four, but al-
ready can call a race.
“My grandchildren all arc po-
tential jockeys,” said Clara.
Mrs. Adams also has raced
horses outside the country. In 1947,
she took a horse to the Grand Na-
tional in England. Later she raced
in Mexico City—“No place for an
honest woman, but it was fun,”
she remembered.
Mrs. Adams now is training 27
horses, which means she is up at
5:30 every morning to be at the
track by six.
Every minute of work is fun to
Clara Adams. She, believes all
horses will respond to kindness, so
she never refuses to train a horse
that others can’t handle.
NO FAWN FOR THE CAME WARDEN - One-weck-o!d
fawn being bottle-fed by Mrs. Kay Kastner, wife of State
Game Warden Curt Kastner, Marin County, Calif., is one-
eighth of a baby-sitting problem dumped in the Kastners’ laps
by would-be “do-gooder” visitors touring the county. Kastner
wants it known that the dear little deer seen beside the road
or in the woods aren't as helpless as they seem. Unless cir-
cumstances are unusual, chances are that mother deer is near
an apparently lost fawn, he cautions.
HOW’S THAT AGAIN?
CHICAGO, June 26 -—tip*—Sum-
mer school was so popular at
Hirsch highschool yesterday that
police were called out to preserve
order. School officials called po-
lice when 3,000 teenagers showed
up to register and some climbed
through windows in their eager-
ness to get their names on the
rolls.
Phone-Mad Daughter
Is Taught Lesson
BENTON HARBOR, Mich., June
26—llh—When a subscriber called i
the Michigan Bell Telephone com-
pany to ask that his phone be dis-
connected for 30 days, Mrs. Grant
Derfelt quickly asked whether he j
was taking a vacation.
“No, not a vacation; I’m going
to be at home,” the man answered.
"Nothing wrong with the service,
hope.”
"No. The service is fine. I’m just
getting tired of complaints.”
"Complaints . . . what kind of
complaints?” Mrs. Derfelt asked.
“Well, I'll tell you. I’ve got a
teen-age daughter, and she’s al-1
ways and forever on the phone, j
We’re on a party line and 1 just
get tired of having other people on '
the line call me up and complain, j
"I warned my daughter, but she
wouldn’t listen, so now I’m going
rip that phone right out for a
month. Maybe this’ll teach her.”
Twining Inspects
Soviet Academy
MOSCOW, June 26 —W— U.S.
Airforce Chief of Staff General
Nathan F. Twining and aviation
experts from 28 other countries to-
day inspected the Zhukovsky air
engineering academy where Rus-
sia turns out the men who design I
its latest warplanes.
There was no immediate com-
ment from the visitors, but it ap-1
peared to trailing newsmen that I
Twining and the other experts were
receiving considerable information
about Russia’s massive air might |
on their inspection tours and in I
informal conversations with So-
viet air oficials.

tired typewriter, we think we
should close it out with a few
historic notes on Chatham, dug
up at the last moment from the
material we’ve accumulated en-
route.
Chatham in 1828 or there-
abouts, was the northern termi-
nus for the "Underground Rail-
road” for slaves seeking free-
dom. The Rev. Josiah Henson,
the original Uncle Tom of Har-
riet Beecher Stowe’s renowned
book, did not die, but escaped
to Canada in 1828, where he
founded the British-American in-
stitution for fugitive serfs. Uncle
Tom’s grave is near Dresden,
Ontario. We were also informed
the house where John Brown
planned his raid on Harper's Fer-
ry in 1859, is located in down-
town Chatham.
Oh, yes. Maryland's gift to the
newspaper world, Charlie Ger-
wig of Ellicott City thanked the
hosts at the Wallaceburg recep-
tion. Somehow it eludes us who
did the honors at Sarnia. —RJD.
