Following is the editorial which gained national prominence: (The Roseburg Business and Pro fessional Women's club is carry ine on an extensive educational camoaign as a part of National Business and Professional Wom en's Week. We know of no organt zation having a better right to boast of its nurooses and acconv I plishments, for B. P. W., both na- tionally and locally, has carved for itself an important place in miri ness, economic and social fields. j B. P. W. is an organization com 1 posed of women actively engaged in business and professional activ 1 ities. Its membership, by embrac- j ing such a large cross section of working women, has available in i formation touching on virtually ev ; ery important issue. Efforts are made to disseminate this informa tion to all members, thus pronuc ing a high degree ot understanding and lntellicence Although B. P. W because of its large membership and closely i knit organization, could be one of the nation's strongest pressure groups, this power is seldom used. Never to our knowledge has it been used for selfish purposes, although it has been exercised in an pdvic. oi y manner in the field of national legislation having to do witn puu I lie welfare. I The Roseburg club has been or ganized since 1924. From a very : modest beginning, it has develop ed to include more than 80 mem bers.

' From its very beginning, the Roseburg B. P. W. club has been a "service" organization. It has aggressively interested itself in civ ic affairs particularly those hav ing to do with public benefit, such as parks, playgrounds, swimming pool, tennis courts, juvenile delin quency, etc. It has carefully avoid ed the dictatorial attitude, but, on the other hand, has at all times shown willingness to assume diffi cult civic tasks shunned by many other groups because of the amount of work involved. And it must be said, to the credit of the Rosebug club, that seldom, it ever, has it failed in successfully com pleting any civic task to which it set its hand, regardless of obsta cles. The Roseburg club, we are in formed, has 16 very active com mittees, all functioning efticiently. The legislative committee ascer tains that every member ot the club, eligible to vote, is properly registered. Committees on equal rights, public aflairs and interna tional relations, keep members ful ly informed on current affairs and issues. As a result, club members Eugene Shooters Win At PITA Competition SEATTLE, (JP) Oregon trap shooters won four of six events in the Pacific International Trap shooting association's annual com petition yesterday.

Relationships locally are cement ed between employes and employ ers at an annual "Bosses' Dinner .

RE-OPNNa 1 WOAt FUB.SISUINC.S Giants Scout Sets Meeting DALLAS, Ore., (Special)- Mickey Sader, western scout for the New York Giants National league base hall club, has issued a call for diamond talent to report to a try out camp in this little Willamette valley city on Aug. 4 and 5. With Hughie Day, another Giant scout, Sader will look over prospects for the Giants as he conducts the camo "m major lea gue style." Several players were sent to farm clubs from the camp heid here last summer, first to be held in Dallas. All players eligible to sign pro fessional contracts may attend without charge, although each must pay his own expenses and bring his own uniform. Games will be played both Friday and Satur day, and all players will be allow ed to participate. In Dallas, camp will be hold on thevhigh school field with sessions beginning at 10 a.m. Day, a Dallas resident, is now accepting applica tions from those who wish to part icipate, but advance registration is not necessary. Shader points out that the camp will be strictly a hunt for talent and is not a baseball school, al though much instruction will be given. Sessions will be held rain or shine, and on the concluding day, pick of the prospects will meet a top semi-pro outfit of this area in a nine-inning game. Shader, in his 39th year in base ball, states that anyone signed to the Giants or any of the IS farm clubs will have full expenses re funded. Carl Hubbell, director of the farm system for the Giants, considers Oregon a rich field for development of ball players, Sha der declares. GO-TO-CHURCH IDEA JACKSONVILLE, F 1 a.
