Nobody knows the trouble /

over again the cry within the hearts
of brown Americans for centuries.
But. nobody?
But a white Rev. Ashton Jones
might disagree. An ordained Con-
gregationalist minister, born and
raised in Georgia of Southern white
Methodist parents, he has had what
most of us would agree are troubles
enough. Not for robbing banks, or
committing murder; not for any
of those things. The Rev. Mr.. Jones
knows what it is to be prosecuted,
tormented and reviled for believ-
ing in the brotherhood of man. He
is gentle, soft spoken man in his
mid-sixties a member of the So
ciety of Friends for more than IL
years, has been beaten, jailed,
cursed and his life endangered by
segregationists. Through it all, he
has had the strength and courage
of his beliefs and the unfaltering
support of his petite wife, Marie.
And this has been enough to SuS-

The faSt-moving Edwards has
many times in his checkered car
eer appropriated automobiles to
Facilitate his rapid interstate trav-
els. I'm May, 1851, while serving
as an enlisted man in the United
States Marine Corps, he was ar
rested by Daytona Beach, Florida,
police for car theft given a Sus-
pended sentence and released to
military authorities, from whom
he received am undesirable dis
change. Within a year from the
above arrest, he had stolen cars
in Arizona, Tennessee and South
Carolina. Sentenced TO a Federal
refonmatory in connection with
one Of these car theftS, this per-
SuaSfve perfectioniSt resumed his
illegal method of acquiring cars
shortly after his release.
! While in Ohio I'M 1855, he was
arrested in possession of stolen
property. A search of the car he
was then travelling in revealed a
loaded revolver under THE front
seat. Less than a month later, this
daring eNtrovert escaped from
custody while being transported
from the court room. The restless
Edwards then travelled through
out the country until reaching
Reno, Nevada, where he COM
menced a series of nine armed
robberieS in several western states
which ended ON March z, 1856, in
Billings, Montana.
AIT the time of his arrest, he
was in possession of a fictitiouSly
registered car from Georgia and
a 80 caliber automatic pistol.
While confined in the Billings
jail, he made several attempts to
commit suicide but on March 10,
1856, Edwards, who claims TO
have pre-law training, was SEN
fenced to ten years in the Mon
tana State Penitentiary. He again
attempted suicide while confined
TO this institution and continued
his contempt towards lawful au-
thority by causing a letter to be
struggled out to a former wife,
threatening TO kill her and his SON
because of divorce proceedings.
He was paroled to Oregon au-

charged with assault and armed
robbery at Portland, Oregon. In
September, 1859, Edwards was
placed on S years probation
which continued until his berserk

She's Plant Happy

LOS ANGELES (AP) - Because
of her interest in umbeliferae, she
had the Mathiasella bupleuroides
named after her, but she also is
an authority on menispermaceae.
She is DR.. Mildred Matthias.
Umbelliferae and menisperma-
ceae are each family of plants.
For nirse months year the
botanist labors at UCLA, classify
ing plants, raising plants, teach
ing about plants, learning about
plants.
During her summer vacation
she gathers plants, but not the
common garden variety.
Dr. Matthias dons her pith he'll
met and blue jeans and heads for
the Amazon. Her kids call her
Queen of the Jungle.
Serving as a plant identification
cOnsultant for the Federal and
State Departments of Agriculture,
the Customs Bureau and other gov
ernment agencies is only one OF
her many pursuits.
She has written scores of scien-
tific publications on her findings,
including several books.
She is vice chairman of the
botany department at UCLA. She
serves on an endless number of
committees and clubs-all connect
ed somehow with plants.
She is married to Gerald Hass-
ler, physicist working on sea-
water conversion; has raised four
children, one married, two in col
lege, one in high school, and has
IS different varieties of plants
growing in the backyard of her
Brentwood home.
But come summer, time for
rest and relaxation, and DR.. Ma
thias Is poking around the closets
looking for the mosquito netting.
Last summer she accompanied
DR.. DermOt TaylOr's expedition to
the Amazon headwaters in Peru
and Ecuador.
DR.. Taylor, UCI4A Medical school
pharmacOlogist, was looking for
certain types of plants with which
to experiment for curative proper
ties. DR.. Matthias was doing the
identifying.
Easy-gOing by nature, the five
0Oot-eight botanist brushes away
the discomfOrts of the jungle with
the mosquitoes. She's up with the
dawn, whips her graying hair into
braids which she wraps around her
head, dons her blue jeans, long
shirt, helmet and tennis shoes
and she's ready for bigger and
better plants.
Her favorite plants are in the
umbelhferae family--which in
cludas CARROTS, celery and parsnips.
Well, / started on the umbel-
hferoe when was working on my
hachelor's degree and stayed with
them clear through my Ph.D," she
