BARN PAINT Phono 362 Joy Clark Timber Contract Dissolution Aim Of Suit On File Coon Creek Timber Co. has filed suit in circuit court against Claire G. Whclchel and Herbert E. Anderson, doing business as A. & W. Loggers, asking that the contract between the two companies he broken. The complaint states that Whel chel, a director, vice-president and general manager of Coon Creek Timber Co. and In com plete control of Its operations is also associated with Anderson in A. & W. Loggers. The plaintiff alleges that the company, through Whelchel, con tracted to buy from Umpqua Ply wood Corp., all merchantaoie timber standing, lying or being upon the property described as the Emile Creek tract in section 35, township 36, and section 2. township 27 south, range 2 west of Willamette meridian. Under the agreement all peel ers were to be sold, and after paying the stumpage of $4 per thousand, the remainder would go to the logging company for construction of a road, for which $15,000 was declared necessary, the complaint states. The plaintiffs allege the road cost only $2,500. and that the defendants received from the sale of peelers to Umpqua Plywood $22.30.5. The plaintiffs ask a decree set ting aside their agreement with the defendants, entered into In April 1948, and requiring the de fondants to account to the plain tiff for all moneys or benefits received or accruing to the de fendants from the sale of the peeler logs, and awarding the plaintiff judgment in an amount equal to the profits.

YMCA Objectives, Benefits Told By Marlen Yoder At Rotary Meet Best summation of the YMCA program Is that It Is the "friend of youth, and that Includes every age up to 93," said Marlen Yoder, general secretary of the Roseburg Young Men's Christian associa tion, at the Rotary club luncheon Thursday noon. Yoder told the Rotarlans of the YMCA program in Roseburg, and of the past history of the organization. The YMCA was founded during the industrial revolution In Eng land, in 1844, by George Williams, who was lonely, needed compan ionship and invited friends to his rooms to start the movement which has since been symboliz ed by Its familiar red triangle. The three sides of the triangle. Yoder pointed out, signify "body," "mind, and "spirit." The YMCA has been criticiz ed In recent years for "losing the 'C In its name," Yoder said. He asserted, however, that there is "no better way" to teach the difference between right and wrong than through the YMCA activity program. Church Attendance Urged Yoder said the YMCA encour ages church attendance and has a program wherein boys pledge themselves to attend church at least three out of five Sundays. Some Y's require such Church attendance before their boys may participate In the athletic program. He told of a boy he had known elsewhere, who had never been inside of a church until he Joined the YMCA. The boy continued going to church after the end of the basketball season, because he liked the friends he made. "I always thought church was a strict sort of place," he con fessed to Yoder. The YMCA Is non-sectarian, Yoder pointed out, and leaves to the churches the studv and In terpretation of the Bible. The YMCA teaches its members to live a wholesome life. "To live the wholesome life you want to live," said Yoder, "you will be leading a Christian life." The YMCA helps the spirit of brotherhood and neither race, creed, nor color bar persons from membership. There is strength in the activity program because it combines people in a common cause, he explained. The difference between the Y and many other organizations, said Yoder, is that the Y is organ ized on the local level. Area and national offices are merely advi sory. Each local board decides what the local program shall be. Activities Told The Roseburg YMCA grew out of a summer activity program, Yoder explained. This past sum mer, the Y has conducted a ten nis tournament, story, hour in KRNR, a day camp for boys, and the "Old Woodenface" pitch ing contest. The local high school has "one of the best" Hl-Y and Tri-Y groups In the state. YMCA ac tivities are to be organized In the Junior High school and the ele mentary schools, Yoder promis ed. The Roseburg Y Is also to co operate with the Medford YMCA Is use of the summer camp at Diamond lake. The ramp is to he open also to YMCA groups at Klamath Falls, Ashland, and at Grants Pass, if the latter city organizes a Y. This winter, the YMCA expects to organize gymnasium facilities lor adults.

Soturday Offer Good Thru Good Aerial For Older Radio Sets Still Important In these days of modern radio sets with built-in aerials plus more and more' local stations, owners of older sets are likely to forget that satisfactory reception of more distant stations still re quires a good aerial and ground. Points In Installing good .tome aerials, particularly for farm homes, have been summarized for the O. S. C. extension service by radio engineers at Oregon State college. This was In response to requests from farmers living a considerable distance from Cor vallis who desire to get KOAC regularly for market reports or other features of Its 12 to 14 hour per day programs. Older style receivers and most battery type sets require an an tenna outside the cabinet, and preferably outside the house, the engineers point out. A vertical an tenna receives equally well from all directions if free from nearby obstructions such as metal roofs or other wires. Other Suggestions Better reception may frequent ly be obtained with an antenna having a high vertical section plus a horizontal section 25 feet or more long. The vertical section may be from 25 to 50 feet high. To avoid outside noise, see that the horizontal section is at right angles to Instead of parallel to any power line. If any antenna Is Installed it is worth while to see that it is sup ported with good glass or porce lin insulators, the engineers add. If lightening storms are at all common a lightening arrester out side the house is recommended. A good ground connection is important except for AC-DC type sets which are usually designed to work without a ground. With these reversing the power plug will sometimes improve reception. A good ground connection may be obtained by attaching the ground wire to an underground water pipe or to a rod driven 10 or more feet Into moist earth. Gas or heating pipes are not suitable for ground connections. It pays to use a ground clamp designed to make a good connection with the rod or pipe. DRESS MAKING AND ALTERATIONS IVA" PHILLIPS 421 N.
