Senator Eichhorn Reports Von A. Eichhorn, 24-year veteran of the Indiana state senate, gave a brief summary Saturday of what can be expected to happen in the remaining days of the legislature. Eichhorn says that the right-to-work law will not be repealed: Senate Reqpublicans refuse to vote for it until a labor reform law is passed; but it is now so late in the session that if both the repeal and reform laws . are passed, the governor could approve the reform law, and pocket veto the repealer, putting two punitive laws on labor. Therefore, the Democrats will not pass the reform law until the repealer is through the legislature, which is unacceptable so-the GOP. 1 i * - ■ : Laws improving the state highway department and highways, in general have been the main interest of Sen. Eichhorn at this session of the legislature. Most of his bills have already passed that refer to highways, but one concerning right-of-way legislation is still to come up. Those who oppose auto sales on Sunday will be happy to know that the senator’s bill on this subject will be approved. Many auto dealers themselves favor the law. At present some dealers stay open against their own wishes just to compete, andl the Sunday openings are considered unfair to small merchants. Many also oppose Sunday openings on religious principles. The bills to create a decent state museum, and to provide book-mo-bile library service, as well as a measure to furnish funds for the Anthony Wayne parkway commission, will probably die in committee, but the parkway commission is expected to be continued, as usual, without any funds. There is still some doubt, Eichhorn said, about whether the school bill, limiting state funds to schools with less than four classroom units by 1963, will pass. Salary laws, with the exception of judges’ salaries, will probably be voted down, he said, with the argument of why raise county officials’ salaries when the state legislators didn’t raise their own salaries. Judges, who will be getting less money than some of their clerks, will probably get a raise, he added. Eichhorn stated that many of his constituents had dropped in to question him on what was going on, and lobby for or against their pet bill. Lobbyists, as usual, have played a prominent part in the deliberations. Eichhorn stated that he took part in a panel discussion at Hartford City during the early days of the legislature to discuss what was to be expected of the politically split session. 111 ——~ ■ ... . —

CHAPTER 16 FAT COW CREEK came down from nowhere into the North Fork. Sand and »Ut on the tar bank looked some troublesome to Mordecai Price: The Rocky Mountain Fur Co. pack train had crossed here, and not more than two days back, Judging from the looks of the mule that had either died or been shot on the near side. They'd butchered that one for meat, Mordecai observed. He drove the pack ponies across, swimming his horse behind thetn. It didn't amount to nothing. He turned to watch Rhode Marsh. She was all right until she let her pony laze off and drift downstream. She got ashore in bad mud a tew rods below Mordecai. The deep silt made the pony frantic. It tried to lunge out. It got in a hole and fell so suddenly that tn spite of the nigh horn Rhoda sailed clean over the saddle and plopped in the mud. Mordecai waited a tittle. When she didn't get up, he went slopping -iver to her and picked ner up. Him mouth was shut tight. “You nrtrt?" ne asked. He was holding her in nis arms as ae stood knee deep in mud. Ree Semple came splashing across- the tUrearn and plunged off his pony. “You all right ?” Mordecai would have sworn that the woman was cussing to herself, but maybe she was Just working some of the mud off tier lipa “Os course I’m all right!” she _ said suddenly. "Put me down!” Mordecai didn’t put ner down at once. He Kept looking at her, wondering why ne nad thought her a nelpless white woman. She wasn’t no fat squaw, and she wasn’t puny either. You didn t pick up any woman and not learn something about ner. The outer parts of her eyes were startling white as she stared at him, as if she was wondering what kind of boss he waa Then she said again, “Put me down!” Mordecai dropped her feet first into the mud and walked away. Ree came plowing over to help her. “She's al) right." Mordecai said. "Long aa her tongue's working, she'* al) right” He pushed on hard immediately, not giving Rhoda a' chance to rest or wash. The mud dried on her face and she brushed It sway. Late tn the day Ree Killed an antelope. Not tar ahead a group of cottonwoods stood near the river. When Mordecai stopped for • tew moments to watch Ree hog butchering the animal. Rhoda took one of the pack horses and went on ahead to the cottonwoods, callir" back.

ing, Mord. Make your mind up tc that" Sudden anger rose tn him. “She ain’t no damn' squaw to be run till she drops.” Where tawny oluestem grew near the water seep at the far edge of the cottonwood grove. Rhoda’s pony stopped suddenly. She tried to urge it on, to go toward the water, but the pony twisted sidewise and stopped again. It didn’t matter; she was close enough. She dismounted wearily and untied one of her bags on the pack horse. The clothes that Mordecai had got from the squaw were lashed in a bundle on the horse. She took the bundle and let it drop at her feet The horses moved away from her. She knew the responsibility of taking care of them, but now it roused a dull anger in her. Let them go. Let the two savages worry about them. She sat down suddenly, weighted with utter weariness, and all the terrors and worries of the trip became a cumulative force 'hat settled on her. The dirt upon her hands, the mud crusted in her braids, and the filthy condition of her clothes were abominations. She felt -hat she was sinking to the level of a beast because she had borne In calmness rigors that would have appalled her had she known of them before she was actually exposed to them. She had been so tired when she was thrown from ner pony into the mud that all she could do was He and grind ner teeth tn helpless fury. Then Mordecai had picked her up with an easy strength that gave her a feeling of being protected, but Just for an instant, because when he could nave shown concern, when ne could have said something kind, he had merely asked if she was all right And then her spirit and her anger had flared at the gruffness of him. He was a brute who resented her being along, who was determined to make her miserable. She had vowed to show him that his rudeness meant nothing, that she could take any hardship ' that was offered, but now she felt worn down to the point of collapse. She looked back at the two men on the prairie. They were 1 eating raw some part of the ante--1 lope Ree had killed. It was revolting. I'm not a squeamish 1 woman. I'm not a weakling, she 1 told herself. But tn heaven's 1 name, how far ia it to Fort Cass? She had her long full minutes of blackness and despair. ■ After that she roee, refusing to 1 let depression grip ner any longer. All her clothes must be washed, even though the stream put more silt into them, than it rei moved. She walked into the bluestem, i going toward the river. The dry, singing rattles came from both sides ci her. Terror compressed

Young Campanella Is Held In Gang Fight NEW YORK (UPD—David Campanella. 15, whose baseball star father has been a leader in the fight against juvenile delinquency, was under arrest today for being involved in a gang fight. David, the son of former Dodger catcher Roy Campanella, was held in the Bronx Youth Shelter ( overnight on juvenile delinquency charges. His mother failed to get him released Monday night because of a tussle with a newspaper photographer. Young Campanella was one of ’ 18 youths picked up by police Monday an they squared off in a i Queens vacant lot in a racial grudge fight. Police broke up the ' battle before anyone was hurt. Leader Os Gang He was reported to be a leader of a gang which had issued a chali lenge to a group of white youths over territorial exclusion from a bowling alley. His father, who is chairman of a special juvenile deliquency committee for the Knights of Pythias’ March of Youth program, was at the Dodgers winter training camp at Vero Beach, Fla. Campanella, confined to a wheelchair from injuries received 13 months ago in an auto accident, is an adviser to the Dodgers. Young Campanella’s mother. Ruthe, arrived at youth house to gain release of David, but was told she must get a clearance from police. As she left the youth detention center, one of two men escorting her objected to photographer Jack Baumohl, of the New Hork Mirror,. • taking her picture. Baumohl said 1 the man threw him over a car hood, broke his camera and beat him. Warns Os “Bashing” Mrs. Campanella warned Mirror reporter Philip Pollock to stay out" of the fray. "You get away or you . will get bashed, too,” she was reported saying. 1 Baumohl swore out a warrant ' for the arrest of the man, known only as Dallas, on assault charges. Mrs. Campanella and her escorts failed to seek clearance for Da- • vid's release from police after ; leaving youth house in a late model Cadillac. • , "L

ifier whole being during the instant when she was stopping. The snake that struck did not rattle. It lay tn a bare spot about two feet ahead of ner. its powerfully muscled body thrown in a striking loop. Rhoda saw the grayish scales near its mouth, the pale segments of its underside, the pinched spots on its eyes, and then the down-striking flash of its wide-open mouth. And then the head of it was stuck in her heavy skirts, with its strong body writhing as the snake tried to draw free to strike again. She leaped back and the fangs tore free. Ita mouth adrip with venom, the reptile struck again, but she was clear of it then. She clung to the rough bark of a cottonwood tree as the snake slid away into the tall bluestem. One by one the rattling sounds stopped. It didn’t get me; I didn’t feel it. She stared down at her outer skirt, then raised it slowly. Caught in the tight weave was a curved white needle, one of toe fangs. She worked It out with a stick. A drop of amber fluid fell away from the broken end. Mordecai called: “We want to , get some wood from there. Don’t be all day." Anger threw energy into Rhoda's bloodstream. “Shut your i mouth!" she shouted. She skirted toe bluestem and went on to toe stream. When she came from the grove i she nad washed her clothes and hung them on limbs to dry. She had brushed the mud from her hair and braided it again. She was wearing' the sack-like buckskin ! dress, caught around toe middle l with a belt, and moccasins. Mordecai had given up going to the grove and had built a fire i of buffalo chips. He stared at Rhoda as she came walking to ward him, and for once had nothi ing unkind to say. Ree smiled. “Fits, I’d say.” . With a calmness she didn’t feel, . Rhoda kept her thoughts to heri seif. The dress, she knew, exposed her ankles and part of her , legs when she walked. The freedom of her body underneath the garment made her feel indecent. A few weeks ago even toe > thought of wearing such a dress . would have been dismissed instantly: but conditions were a little different now. Just until her ( own things dried, that was all . Mordecai’* critical stare seemi ed endless. “Wasn’t for your legs ■ being white. Td say—" i “That 1 was a squaw. You think all women ought to be squaws, > don’t you, Mr. Price?” . „ “Didn't say it" Mordecai seem- . ed embarrassed. "Didn’t say so : at sdL" The parting of Mordecai and Ree IB inevitable. The question ishow bloody will ft be. as i “Rendezvous" continues hers I tomorrow. j
