whose views on major issues
largely coincide with his own.
Singing Match Possible
Any such decision conceiv-

against a former Senatorial

Senator Goldwater in a politi-

Noted British
CurtooniSt

LONDON, Sept. 20 (AP).-
Sir David Low, 70, British car
toonist, died last night after a
long illness.
Sir Winston Churchill once
described him as 'the greatest
Of our modern cartoonists," al
though Sir David's political
caricatures often were less than
kind to the former Prim e
Minister.
Sir David was born in New
Zealand. From 1927 to 1850 he
was cartooniSt for the London
Evening Standard. Since 1853
he had worked for the Man.
chester Guardian. Queen Eliza
beth II knighted him in 1862.
Sir David first contributed

staff cartoonist for a paper in
Sydney, Australia
His first job in Britain was
with the Evening Star in 1919,
Eight years later he Joined the
Standard.
Sir David's Colonel Blimp'
was the personification Of that
school of British conservatism
rooted in the Victorian era. An
other well-remembered figure
was "Buttercup," a huge draft
horse representing the British
Trades Union Congress.
Sir David's caricatures of Hit
Ter and Mussolini were etched
in ridicule.
The cartoonist once told an
interviewer:

Jerry Ashburn Dies,
I'd Mushroom Victim

Jerry E. AShburn, 80, Fairfax
County planner, died yesterday
from poisoning, II days after
eating mushrooms picked near
his home.
He died at 2:30 pm. in
Fairfax Hospital without re-
covering consciousness.
Mr.. Ashburn picked and ate
the mushrooms September 8.
The following day he was ad-
mitted to the hospital. Two
days later he went into shock
and was placed on the critical
list.
His wife, Ruth Anne, barely
escaped being poisoned. She
sampled the mushrooms but re-
fused to eat them when she
said they tasted bad" Mr..
Ashburn then ate both help
ings.
Mr.. Ashburn was the second
mushroom victim in the area
this month. A 10-year-old
Chevy Chase MD boy died
of mushroom poisoning two
weeks ago.
Mr.. Ashburn was the assist
ant to Rosser Payne, the coun-
tvs principal planner. He had
been with the county since
1858.
Tribute BY Massey
County Executive Carlton c..
Massey called his death "a
great loss" and called Mr.. Ash
burn an excellent" planner.
Fairfax County and the
State of Virginia have lost a
fine, young, capable planner, I"
said Mr.. Payne. HE cannot be
replaced because he had two
qualities so often lacking in
men-devotion to job and a
singularness of purpose in life.
II have lost a most valuable
and capable associate and my
closest friend"
Mr.. Ashburn was born in
Cincinnati. Ohio, and educated
at Ohio State University. He
was graduated in 1855 with a
degree in landscape architec-
ture. He worked as a surveyor
in Batavia, Ohio. before enter
ing the Army Corps Of En-
gineers as a second lieuteant
in May 1856.
1t. Ashburn was assigned to
