Modern communications are
playing a vital role during the
Larry Lord Motherwell murder
trial in nearby Downieville, TelePhone and teletype facilities are
being utilized around the clock
by the visiting press members
in. their job of getting news of
the trial to readers across the
nation. Defense and prosecution
Staffs also find the ‘communications system vital in checking on
the arrival of witnesses and other
trial matters.
Pacific Telephone has installed
more than 15 extra phones for
the duration of the trial. Most are
located in an improvised press
room in the California Highway
Patrol office in the Sierra County
courthouse. Others are located in
motel rooms where visiting newsmen are lodged.
G. O. Hutchins, local Pacific

stories—some at the rate of 1,000
words a day—to their respective

by Richard O’Lone. of the WashNormally, Downieville has
about 140 phones to serve its
population, « Hutchins . explained.
. But with the start of the trial,
expected to continue at least a
month, regular facilities had to
days to install the special facilities, including 500 extra feet of
cable. Visiting mewsmen have
been enthusiastic over the communcations setup. “Even in towns
larger than Downieville we've
never had such fine press accommodations,” said one newsman.
The press is also impressed with
the fact that telephone operators
are taking time to track down
individual reporters. when there
are long distance calls for them.
“Operators are remembering
our names and they seem to know
where ‘to find us without too
much difficulty,” another newsman explained. “They know if

For Use Of Truckee Water In
Next legislative action will be a
vote on the assembly :
The Nevada County Board of
Supervisors is forwarding to the
California Nevada Interstate
Compact Commission a resolution
calling for the reservation of
Truckee River systme waters for
the people of California.
The resolution was
without a dissenting vote.
It notes the economy of eastern
Nevada County is dependent to a
large extent upon ‘tourists attracted by the scenic and recreational values of the region.
The supervisors also point out
the quality of the water, to insure maximum utilization for all
beneficial purposes in Nevada
County, requires proper, safe and
reliable methods of disposal of
sewerage and other waste waters
originating in the Tahoe Basin
as well.as the Truckee River system. :
The resolution, covering 13
points, asks the provisions be
considered by the two-state commission in formulating any compact.
They are:

2. The waters should be maintained at drinking water-standards at all times. :
3. California should have unrestricted use of the surface and
underground waters of the system
for domestic, recreational (including fish and wild life), industrial
and power purposes.
4. No exportation of the waters out of the state should be
permitted except through natural
channels, ie
5, 6, 7, 8 9 and 10. These points
pertain to maintaining a flow of
water to preserve fish and wildlife resources in the river, to permit migration up stream for propagation of trout in Pyramid Lake,
Nevada, and having a federal

Centuries ago someone compiled a group of some fifty beasts,

was increased and altered
through the centuries. The collection now being shown at
