W A KIBITZER IS A GUY WITH AN 1NTERFERIORITY COMPLEX.. 1 WINTER WAS n?"" New Timber-Buying Job 'Fascinates' Ex-U. Of O. Coach Jim Aiken But He'll Always Have Time To Talk Football "I used to look for football players. I now look for No. 1 peeler logs." That, in a nutshell, sums up the new activities of Jim Aiken, ex-University of Oregon football coach, now a tim ber buyer for Umpqua Plywood corporation in Roseburg. . Aiken s new job will take him around to timber operators to make arrangements for the pur chase of timber. "I'll talk either football or logs with them it doesn't make any difference," Aiken commented. "I imagine I'll be doing quite a bit of talking about football." The former football coach moved to Roseburg sveral days ago and set-up "bachelor" quarters at 1209 Winchester street. His family, now in Eugene, is expected to join him in about two weeks. Aiken continues to keep a hand In football, , however, as a scout for several professional teams and as a "fan." "I want to go to the football games on Saturday afternoon and sit down and enjoy them without worrying about who's going to win," he said. He'll follow the Roseburg team this fall under Coach Bill Reder. The Roseburg assistant coach, Keith Moore, played fullback on Aiken's team last fall. And, of course, he'll keep close tabs on the University of Oregon, under its new coach Leonard "Len" Casanova. "If he gets the right kind of breaks, he'll do okay," Aiken said of Casanova. The two coaches met several years ago during a Nevada Santa Clara game. New Vocation Fascinating Aiken has been working for the Umpqua Plywood corporation since July, shortly after he re Ho has been working "in and out" of Roseburg for the last two months. This time he's here to stay, ating" Aiken said. "I think it's just as interesting as coaching football," the former coach said. Aiken explained he had been thinking about the lumber business for a long time. Furthermore his wife wanted him in the lumber business he said. His entry into Roseburg's Um ber industry was gained through acquaintances in the business. "I figure if you want to get Into timber you might as well get right into tile middle of it and this is sure the heart of It, down here." Aiken's daughter, Carol, will be a junior in Roseburg high school this fall. A son, Jerry, will attend the University of Washington. His other son, Jim Jr., is working as a lumber buyer.
