Edelweiss Picked As Name For Winter Sports Club Edelweiss is a flower, and it is I also the name of the newly created! winter sports club in the Roseburg area. After three weeks of trying, the club finally decided on a name and a few breaths later voted the incor poration of the club under the name of Edelweiss. The name was drawn from the Alpine flower pro nounced Aydl-vue which grows only on the highest mountain lev els. To distinguish the area, lljiip qua Basin will probably be em blazoned across the symbol. Thus, it will be the Edelweiss S KI Club. ; The third club meeting was high lighted by the presence of George Korn, owner-operator of the Wil lamette Ski area. He pronounced Roseburg club as one of the grow- Inventor Plans 'Moon1 To Meet Iron Curtain Ban By HOWARD W. BLAKESLEE Associated Press Science Editor HUNTSVILLE, Ala. (fl There will be no Iron Curtain anywhere if the vision of the maker of the terrible V-2, German guided rocket that bombarded England from Hol land comes true. The vision is a military space station, a tiny, man. made moon, 1,075 miles up, which each day will see every square mile of the earth's inhabited surface, and the people moving around as clearly as from an airplane at 5,000 feet. The dreamer is Professor Worn her Von Braun, the youthful Ger man genius who made the seem ingly impossible V-2, and who now at 39 feels that the military satellite is possible. He lives here and is taking American citizenship pa pers. The military satellite will circle the earth once every two hours. It will circle from north to south, at nearly right angles to the earth's rotation. It's orbit is fixed, with the earth rotating eastward below. Thus if it comes down over New York City at 10:00 a.m., it will be on its next circuit down from the north somewhere over Denver and the Ves.t Coast. Two Views of Everything In 24 hours it will see every thing on the earth by daylight. And also it will come up each trip on the opposite side for a night view by radar. This will give it two looks a day at everything. The satellite will cany a tele scope, through which you can sec a strip of earth more than a thousand miles wide as clearly as if you were only 5.000 feet away. Looking down you can see far better than looking up, from earth's surface. If you want-to see why, try looking through thin tissue paper at a printed page a foot behind the paper. You see nn let ters. But lay the tissue ox the page and vou can read it. For the watch er on the satellite our air is the tissue paper, and it is in contact with the earth. ing organizations of Oregon and advised the 1 club to obtain a ski area as soon as possible. He re ported that the Willamette area had been formed as a result of the opening of a third cross-state high way. Me slated mat the Koseburg area would probably soon have ac cess to such a highway, but be cause of high interest, an area close to Roseburg should be se cured immediately. Called Group Active He called the Roseburg group one of the most active new groups in the state beceuse of its apparent interest in the sport. He said Rose burg skiers have put Willamette Pass on the map because of their fine turnouts in the Eugene area. He also advised the group to join the Pacific Northwest Ski Associa tion as soon as possible to take ad vantage of the information the re gional club can offer. He stated, the PNSA released information and aid in clearing data in Northwest ski circles and formation of new clubs. He warned the club should be j named in order to cover both win ter and summer sports. He includ ed water skiing and mountain climbing as die two major sum mer sports to be considered in order to eliminato the necessity of additional clubs. The club postponed further in- vestigation of the Taft Mountain and Red Butte area until 'he roads could be opened after recent snows. When the areas become again ac ! cessible, a preliminary investiga i ting group will be followed by a wholesale investigation of the area by the entire club. Other business was the voting of the heads of the standing commit tees to the executive board. They will join the currently reigning of ficers on the committee. Fire Fails To Driv Boy From TV Set AUDUBON, N. J- Ml William Wright, 8, likes his television. He stayed home from school Monday because he had a cold.

Hermiston Fire Razes 3 Stores HERMISTON i.n Fire de-, strayed three stores housed in the Burnham Building here early! Wednesday. j Bv 8 a.m. after firemen frnm the city, rural and ordnance de partments had fought the, flames four hours, only the concrete walls remained standing. There was no official loss esti mate but businessmen familiar with the operations said the figure probably was around $200,000. Bruce Givens, manager of Burn ham's Drygoods Store, one of those wiped out, said he had no insurance. It was reported insur ance coverage on the rest of the loss was small. In addition to the drygoods store, the Tot Shop and Cap's Donut and Candy Shop were burned out, West ern Union and the bus depot were housed in the candy shop. None of the contents of the build ing, erected in 1947, were' saved. Fire Chief Bob Russell said the fire started near the furnace room at about 4 a.m. Thief Offers Suitcase For 0 To A. Detective CHICAGO il "I'll sell you this $94 suitcase for just $5," James Groner, 33, told a passer by, Peter Rendek, as he walked in South State Street Tuesday, Ren dek didn't stop and Groner called, "I'll let you have it for $2 for even $1." As Rendek, a detective, stopped at the corner and opened the police telephone box, Groner pleaded, "I'll give it to you for nothing." Groner was taken to Central Po lice Station. The suitcase was re turned to a State Street depart ment store where Groner, police said, had stolen it. Groner was held without charge.

Ind. 11 A 39-year-old factory worker's efforts to combat the influenza epidemic didn't get much sympathy from state police.

Ban On Mexican Cattle To End WASHINGTON 11 The United States announced Wednesday it plans to lift a ban against cattler sheep, swine and other ruminant and livestock products from Mexico by Sept. 1. The embargo was put into li fect in December, 1946, when an epidemic of foot-and-mouth disease broke out there. Plans for removing it were dis closed in a joint statement issued by Secretary of Agriculture Bran, nan and President Miguel Aleman of Mexico. The embargo will be lifted pror viding there is no new outbreak of the dread animal disease in the meantime. 4 This announcement came only about two weeks after the United States had closed the Canadian bor der to livestock and livestock prodr ucts because of outbreak of the disease near Regina, Saskatche wan. The disease also exists in much of Europe, Asia and in parts of South America. A murrelet, ancient species of small water bird that lives in the far north, was rccentfy found near Bend. Ore. H was the first of the species ever to be reported alive in Oregon. lefohaii UTZ WBNHAKD COMPANY POTWND.
