YOU AIN'T SEEN NOTHIN'
By CHARLES V. STANTON
Our provincial pride has again been offended. It seems
that Roseburg is never given deserved recognition or credit.
Other cities have no trouble making headlines, but no one
seems to know that Roseburg exists, even though we now
have official standing as the
Medford lays claim to our
Falls boasts of taking our
(Friendly) puts us on a sidetrack and lists us in small type,
even leaving us off some of its maps. The State Highway
Commission bypasses our need for improvements to bottle
necks north and south of town and lists us as about the last
spot on the whole Pacific Highway system to benefit from
the reconstruction program.
Guide, distributed to all Portland hotel rooms, contains a
mileage chart which lists virtually every town in Oregon
except Roseburg.
Thus we have been and arc ignored, slighted and robbed
of rightful recognition. But now comes the crowning insult.
If we did not know Marshall Dana as we do, having had
through his efforts as editor of the editorial page of the
Oregon Journal much help and many courtesies in dealing
with civic problems, we would accuse him of prejudice. But
we are confident his acts were without malice and were
based purely upon misinformation. Other cities, too, have
felt the slight, and are protesting bitterly against what must,
be only unintentional discrimination.
The Oregon Journal placed itself in this unenviable posi
tion by nominating the city of North Bend as the "jaywalk
ingest city in Oregon." The Dalles and Medford immediately
challenged the nomination and claimed the title for their
own communities. Now, The Journal has the temerity to
announce that "it begins to look as if the competition is
closed and North Bend is the undisputed winner."
Hold, Marshall I Roseburg is not to be ignored in this
high-handed manner! Let no one claim superiority to Rose
burg in the matter of jaywalking.
North Bend we will admit may have a moderate propor
tion of jaywalkers. Ib is true that the city has posted en
trance signs proclaiming the municipality to be the "Jay
walkingest City in Oregon." We agree that The Dalles can
not be considered a logical contender because motorists and
pedestrians alike get bo wobbly from driving the curves of
the Columbia Higway that reeling and veering off at tan
gents finally becomes habitual with residents and the visitor
alike, so it becomes impossible to reach a classification of
true jay walking, as contrasted with blind staggers.
We must doubly challenge Medford, not only for claiming
the jaywalking title, but also for claiming to be "the coffee
drinkingest town west of the Mississippi," a statement found
In a recent issue of the Medford Mail Tribune which says:
"We would, Indeed, be remiss In our clvio duty if we failed
..,to speak forth In behalf of Medford In this momentous con
- troversy. Being the coffee-drlnklngest town west of the Mis
sissippi, we are naturally the Jaywalklngest place certainly
as far as Oregon - is concerned. Dexterous citizens
here, when headed for the nearest coffee shop, can cross
' main street between Intersections with more agility than
an All-American halfback running through a broken field
In a Rose Bowl Game."
Coffee drinkers, indeed! Why, a puny eighth grader from
this land of tho Paul Bunyans, where our restaurants use
locomotive boilers to brew coffee for the trade, could whip
those effete Mcdfordites and never crook a little finger.
Imagine, if you please, North Bend, The Dalles or Med
ford disputing Roseburg's right to the jaywalking cham
pionship. This, sir, is a land of rugged individualism. Is it to be
thought for one moment that our population, trained in the
Great Outdoors, where nnui walk iii unrestrained freedom
on virgin paths beneath a canopy of stalwart firs, will waste
footsteps in trekking to the pedestrian lane? Can one imagine
that our men of profession and business, pressed by over
whelming duties imposed by continuing immigration of new
population and the prosperity of Oregon's leading boom
town, have time to seek a crosswalk as they dash regularly
upon the hour, and frequently between times, for the cup
of steaming Java which is almost tho sole source of nourish
ment for some?
IiCt's hear no more about this matter. It is obvious that
in the pure and unadulterated art and practice of jaywalk
ing there is no place w hich can begin to compare with Rose
burg Simply because wc have heretofore failed to toot our
own horn is not sufficient excuse for the oversight. We'll
admit we've been sidetracked by the "Friendly" S.P. We
know we've been left off a lot of maps. We realize we haven't
been pushing ourselves forward in the society of municipali-j
tics our roads are too bad lor
our neighbors. But, brother, don't think the people of Rose
burg aren't artists at jaywalking!
Until you've seen the way people jaywalk in Koseburg,
you ain't scon nothin'.
Federal Service
Rapped by Judge In
Citizenship Case
SAN FRANCISCO, April 6.
Mi- A 2i year-old boy was grant
ed V. S. citizenship yesterday by
a federal Judge who took a sharp
lash at the U. S. Immigration
service.
"It's about time," said Judge
Michael J. Roche, "that the hu
man side of these cases got some
attention in this court."
Two years ago in Edmonton,
Alta., Canada, Mr. and Mrs.
Aaron M. I'nilerkof tier, now of
Albanv, Calif., adopted little
Gregory and brought him here.
They thought that made him a
citizen of the united Mates. Im
migration authorities said no.
Last Juno the I'mlrrknfflers
formally re-adopted him. Immi
gration 'said that wasn't any good
either: hat the foster parents
would have to re-adopt him all
over again after he had eben in
their custody for two years.

Roche commented without elab
oration: "It won't bo long before
this is all one country."
Later, talking with reporters,
Judge Roche said that in com
menting on the "one country"
possibility, he had in mind the
"community of interest" between
Canada and the I'nlted States.
He considered it only a question
of itme before the two would be
united politically.

Umpqua Chiefs Hot
To Participate
In State League
That the Roseburg Chiefs
would not enter the State Base
ball League was decided follow
ing a meeting Sunday at Albany
attneded by H. W. Sanders, rep
resenting itoseourg sponsors.
The State League is not well
organized, and tentative playing
dates would conflict too strongly
with the Southern Oregon Lea
gue, in wnicn Koseourg is sched
uled to play.
Only Dend, Salem, Albany,
Portrland and Roseburg were rep
resented, said banners. 1 ravel dis
tance between the towns was
considered too great. Prepara
tions may be made, however,
for an entry into the league next
year, if conditions Justify, he
said.
At a meeting in Medford to
complete details for the South
ern Oregon schedule, it was vot
ed that no representatives of the
teams entered in the play could
hold office, rejmrted Elmo'rc 1 1111,
Umpqua Chiefs' manager.
As a result it was necessary
for the delegates to choose a
new president and vice-president.
Don Iledgepath of Grants Pass,
was elected president, succeeding
nir. iionord oi Lentrai r'olnt.
Hill said that an effort Is be
ing made to line up some exhibi
tion matches between the local
ball club and touring teams, such
as the Harlem Globe Trotters or
the Hawaiian All-Stars. A tenta
tive date for one of these games
would be June 23.

Graziano Not Up
To Top Form in
Defeating Home
By ARTHUR EDSON
WASHINGTON, April 6. (IP)
If there's anything that Middle
weight Champion Rocky Gra
ziano doesn't need, it's a rest
cure.
He showed that last night as he
defeated Sonny Home of Valley
Stream, L. I., in a non-title bout
that went the full 10 rounds.
He also showed that he will
need plenty of work if he expects
to defend his title successfully
against Tony Zale on June 9,
probably in Newark.
Graziano is famed for his
knockout punch. It was complete
ly unemployed last night. Repeat
edly Graziano swung, and repeat
edly he missed, sometimes by as
much as six inches.
Yet so powerful is Graziano
a stocky little character with the
muscles of a 250-pounder that
his glancing blows did more dam
age than the straight ones, from
At the end Home had bad cuts
over both eyes, and looked tuck
ered out.
Graziano didn't have a mark on
him, and looked as if he was
ready to fan Home for another
10 rounds.
The Judges all voted for Gra
ziano, but many of the 5,181 cus
tomers Dooca wnen tne decision
was announced.
Graziano. who at 160 weighed
a pound less than Home, pretty
wen summed up tne situation in
the dressing room after the fight.
"I needed this one," he said.
"If they don't ban me out of the
ring, they'll rust me out."
lie was referring, of course, to
the fact that he hasn't fought
since he won the title from Zale
last summer.
New York has banned him be
cause he failed to mention that
someone tried to bribe him. Illi
nois and 13 other states have bar
red him because he once wan
dered off from the Army without
bothering to ask the Army's con
sent.
So put Graziano's troubles
down as rust.
After all, he won.
So did the National Infantile
Paralysis Fund. It will get Gra
ziano's share round $10,000 of
the $34,737.92 gate. This was sup
posed to be the clinching proof
of what a good boy the Rock has
become.

"Drawing" an Indian head with
250 caliber .22 bullets in about
three minutes is one of the high
lights of the entertainnig public
shooting exhibitions to be given
by Ernie and his wife Dot Lind,
Winchester-Western shooters, at
the Roseburg Rod and Gun Club
grounds at Winchester on April
8, at 5 p.m.
' The appearance of the famous
couple, called America's number
one exhibition shooters by the
American Magazine, is sponsored
by the Roseburg Rod and Gun
Club. The exhibition is free and
the public is invited to attend.
Spectacular shooting with rifles,
shotguns, pistols and revolvers
and safety practices in the han
dling of firearms are stressed bv
the Llnds throughout their ex
hibition. In addition, the Llnds
will answer anv questions and dis
cuss shooting problems with mem
bers of the audience following
their exhibition.
Dot Lind, a pretty 120-pounder,
shooting -at aerial targets with
single and double barrel shot
guns, shows how, with patience
and practice, a woman can easily
handle the heaviest shotguns.
Ernie Lind matches any Western
film performer with his exciting
demonstrations of the "quick
draw" with one and with two
revolvers.
Targets as tiny as aspirin tab
lets and moth balls disappear be
fore bullets from Dot Lind's
Model 52 target rifle, which she
also uses to sDlit a playing card
from edge to edge. Four flying
aerial targets become merely
puffs of dark smoke in the sky in
the wink of an eye when Ernie
points his shotgun and fires on
them.
