Stanton Elmer Balsiger, Klamath Falls, has been appointed to the Oregon Game commission to succeed Lloyd Blakely, Bend. Balsiiter will brine: a wide knowledge of conservation and a keen interest in fish and game management to the commission, as he is widely known as one of the state's most ardent sportsmen. The governor, in our opinion, has made an excellent selection. Despite the appointment of an able man to fill the vacancy, we deeply regret the loss of Blakely from the game board. Our personal interest is heightened because we have known Lloyd so long and so intimately. Working diligently in both the Oregon Wildlife fed eration and 17-aak Walton league, Blakely has had a marked influence upon improvement of fish and game management in Oregon. He has been a strong force for constructive legislation. He is recognized as one of the conservative group in sportsmen activities, refusing to be stampeded into his decisions, but taking a firm and vigorous stand when his investigations convinced him of the proper course. He has a wide general knowledge of conservation and is well acquainted with conditions and needs throughout the entire state. He was a most valuable man in his service to Oregon, its wildlife and its natural resources. Lloyd, however, will not be lost to the conservation cause. If we know him as well as we believe we do, he will continue pitching- Though his health may not permit him to serve in an official capacity, nothing can stop him from being a champion of conservation while breath remains in his body. Flipped Coin On Ltnejth of Term Blakely undoubtedly could have remained on the game commission, had he m desired. But his health would not permit and he chose to leave the board at the end of his one-year term. Incidentally, when the new game commission was ap pointed by Governor Me Kay, following the last session of the legislature, the terms of Blakely and Carl Hill of Days Creek were not fixed, the two appointees being told to determine between themselves which would take the five year term and which the one-year term. The decision was made by the flip of a coin, which gave Hill the long term and chairmanship, Blakely receiving the one-year appointment. Governor Mc Kay probably will be faced with the necessity of making another appointment to the game board in the near future, as Chairman Hill will lie' resigning if elected to the office of county judge at the general election in November. Hill holds the Republican nomination for the county office. He is not expected to submit his resignation until the outcome of the full election is known. If- elected county .fudge, however, he will be forced to leave the game board and a successor will be named to represent the South western Oregon area. - In The Day's News .By FRANK JENKINS. "n nai m-i-rrrTi"'' '""Ty k v (Continued from Page One) which we are guarding as a tight secret. The latest Tokyo communi que nays: "While not yet complcl ly hailed, red infiltration has heen reduced to manageable proportions and can In short order be expected to approach tero." (That's communique language, which is always extremely formal. The ordinary way to say it would he something like this : "We've found a way to put the kibosh n the commies' infiltration stuff.") llow we, re doing it, I wouldn't know. Maybe weve trained Soullt Korean dogs to smell out the North Koreans 'for us. A good lip is to watch the First Cavalry division that was landed nn the hrarh on the east side of Korea the other day. So far., the Commies have been doing all the outflanking. A good guess would he that what uir First Cavalry hoys are hoping to do is to take the COMMIKS in the flank when they're not looking. If you have an ounce of srnli ment left in your system in these days of brutally realistic war, you'll heave a sigh and shed a tear over what has happened to these cavalrymen. They're DlSMOl'NT F.D. Not just temporanov. IM'.R. MANENTLY! There isn't a horse in their outfit, and the heck of it is that there never will be again. It's buniona on their feet instead of saddle sores somewhere else that are bothering the hoys of the , proud First Cavalry right now. I There isn't any glamour al. all left in war on Ihe ground. From here on out, it's just plain hell. The passing of the cavalry horse symbolize that about as well as anything could. Bark here on the home front, hoarding Is the top-drawer head ache. A dispatch from Washington says: "Disturbed by increases In prices and evidence of consumer hoard ing, the government is working on a report to convince the public that it nerd not fear food shortages." If Ihe Washington boys are in terested, I can tell them some thin:: THE MORF. THF.Y TF.I.I, VS WK NEF.O HAVE NO FEAR OF FOOD SHORTAGES, THE WORSE SCARED WE'RE GOING TO RE AND THE MORE WE'RE GOING TO HOARD." Mo I'm not going to hoard any thing more than maybe ao xi'j carton of cigarettes. War Is grim, business. In war, it ouut lU .c all share and share alike, an tor one and one for all. If big-time war conies, it will be communism vs. human liberty and in a war over a fundamental issue like that I don't want to have a basement full of food while my neighbors are going hungry. There won't be any shortages unless we get into all-out WAR WITH RCSSIA. and if there is all- out war wilh Russia I don't want to have to sneak up the back alleys because 1 m ashamed to face my my friends." Nolo Contendere Plea Made To Government Charge i.us AiiiCL,r..i. .liny .r I Tu. lVa.t,ln.,,nn ll,...,nc.... Monday pleaded nolo contendere to federal charges of comn.i to defraud the government in pur chase of surplus war equipment. Beryl C. Jackson, 4.1, of Kelso, and Charles R. Manthe, 48, of Long view, withdrew pleas of innocent and entered the no contest plea before Federal Judge lien Harri son. He act Aug. 14 for disposition of their cases. Jackson did the same in second Indictment charg ing him alone with conspiracy. Maximum penalty would be five yearj imprisonment and 10,000 line. A third defendant has pleaded innocent and disposition of his rase was set over to July 27. He is Carl A. Button, 62. of Woodland, Wash. The government said it will drop the charges against Button if the Justice department approves, because evidence indicates he was only nn the fringe of the transac tions charged and did not profit by them. . , The government chimed the three men. partners in Longview veniiMe-equipment business, with fraudulently buying surplus trucks and trailers at 1'ort Hueneme, Calif., in 1947 when the equipment was supposed to be sold only to World War II veterans.

Navy Volunteers To Be Told When Billets Open The Navy department has ad vised the commandant Thirteenth naval district that it will issue or ders to those naval reserve offi cers who have ' volunteered their services as billets become available. Due to the work load incident to processing such voluntary re quests for return to active duty, the department is unable to ack nowledge receipt of the requests; nor can u answer inquiries as to the status of each application or the availablity of billets. "Orders will be issued in ac cordance with the needs of the service and with the individual officers qualifications," the navy department slated. In each instance, the announce ment said, provision will be made for a delay of ten days from the time of receipt of orders to. the date of reporting. ' By ViaJmtt S. Vartin Everybody who knows "Grand ma ' Allison, and many who know her only thought the newspapers, are rejoicing with her because af ter six years of blindness she can SEE. "Just think," she said with a happy smile, and -such a cheery voice before.' She held my hand like now. I have heard only your voice before.' She hald my hand a moment longer, regarding me interestedly, as sh( lay in bed in her room at home. While she was in the hospital a loosened plate in her hip was taken care of, too. She had been enduring much pain which now was gone, too. The hip has mended nicely. "I shall be walking any day now, said the cheery little lady who was 88 on June 24, "and oh it is so wonderful just to see!' Her neighbor, Mrs. Gilman, laughed, and added loveingly: "She can see all right. She has been talking about the back combs in my hair and the different way I comb it now!' The wonderful day when the band age was removed, "Grandma"Ael lison looked excitedly about her. She looked at each face in turn: "I can see your teeth!' she said excitedly, to emphasize how dis tinct her vision was. And she laughed with everybody else may he she had seen tears in the eyes of some in the room. "Teeth" was just the right touch. Yes, indeed, everyone who knows "Grandma" Allison, and others who know her only indirectly, re joice with her! What a pile of let ters came to her along with checks and good wishes! She is treasuring every one carefully and will read and re-read them as time goes on, although to answer them personally would be for her pretty much of a job. It is amazing how much "Grand ma" Allison does for herself, seek ing to be as little care as pos sible to those around her: much more than the average patient in bed would think she could do, seems to me. She often stays alone. I know "Grandma" Allison, that this column reaches you by way of clippings from your friend, Mrs. B. in Drain. So I'll take this way of saying again: "I hope you will return my call soon, and that the next time I see you, you will indeed be walking! As an elderly aunt of mine used to say: "I glory in your spunk!" BARBER PRICES UPPED TOLEDO, O. -UP) Haircut prices here have jumped from $1 to $1.25 and shaves from 50 to 75 cents.
