Martin I ST ILL-L Last time we were on Die Coast highway, just before we reached the Jebediah Smith memorial mark er I wai wishing that we might open the News-Review some day and find Paul Jenkins had photo graphed that glorious view of Smith River which you see from the top of the grade. I also added that there were so many lovely views right here in Douglas coun ty . . . the lakes, the highways, the Umpqua 1 just wished Mr. Jenkins would take his camera and give us a picture-log. , , . A day or so later, there were pictures of Cleawnx lakes, and of the Jehediah Smith marker not to mention charming "human in terest," as photographers call it, added by inclusion of Mrs. Jenk ins, Dencse Doak and Sue Arm son. ("I was thrilled!" Sue Arm son said in the Library, the other day, "is was such a wonderful drive!") I couldn't see just what the three were "tobogganing" on, but I sup pose they thought to take a piece of waxed linoleum. That, I've heard, is the usual way to do It. The dunes wonderful sight! are so steep it may well be one could dispense with the linoleum. The view of Hcceta Head in Lane county was a fine one. W. A. Langille, state historian, would like to have us say "ay-thay-tah" for that Hcceta, thus approximat ing Senor Bruno Hccela'i own way of pronouncing it. He's the Spanish explorer, you know, who entered the mouth of the Colum bia in 1775 - didn't catch on that it was a river, not a bay, and so lost his chance to tag it for the Spanish crown. That was twenty years before Lewis and Clark ar rived, and seventeen years before Capt. Robert Gray sent his wing ed Columbia sailing through the pounding surf and claimed the river for us. Well, Capt. Hcccta's name claims this bit of the coast which he described in his diary. Always keep a diary when you go explor ing - even if you call it nowadays a motor-log! But to return to the Paul Jen kins pictures: I'd like to see one of Mill creek covered bridge; one of that dramatic sight that greets the eye when you drive up the grade, before you reach Heeds port, and suddenly - there's the Umpqua, nh words fail me! Surety you don't need a milepost number to know the exact spot I mean. I do wish a certain photograph er would capture for us the pic tures we wish we could snap of highway 38, and can't with a little Kodak and only amateur know how; the pictures which we can tuck in letters and say, "Here's what I've been trying to tell you in words about highway .18 and our river! Here's a bit of Oregon!" Losee Honored On Retirement From Lions Post Forrest Losee, retiring governor of Linns District 36-E, was honored by the Roseburg Lions Thursday night. Mrs. Losee and their daugh ter, Lorraine, were also guests. Additional guests included the new district governor, Lew Hardin, and his wife from Grants Pass. Losee and his cabinet secretary, Phil Harth, were both presented gifts. A report of activities in the district during the last year was read by Losee. He visited each of the 27 clubs in his district. Hardin announced that he is ap pointing Walter Welker of the Rose burg club as zone chairman. Lions participation in the July 4 fireworks display at the fair grounds was discussed. The club will set up and supervise the food concession at the grounds, but the operation and selling of hambur gers and soft drinks will be han dled by representatives from other service organizations. Orton hent was inducted as a new member. Andy Anderson, new 4-11 club leader, was introduced as a cub Linn. Mrs. Bruce Elliott and Mrs. Bernard Saar of the Lady Lions were also guests.
