Good Driving Ahead Near Reedsport By DAWN PESSAU Highway relocation construction which currently representi minor traffic delaya for tourista and lo cal traffic in the Reedsport area, in future perspective represents miles of sweeping, level highways, free from sharp curves and steep, hazardous grades. That's, what relocation survey plans developed by the State High way Department, under the direc tion of resident engineers, show. The resident locations office, which had been in charge of Wal ter Wright, locations resident en gineer, for two and half years, mapped out the relocations of coast highway 101 from Elbow Lake south to Clear Lake, and of state highway 38, the Umpqua River Highway, between Reeds port and Scottsburg. The locations office closed early this month, its surveys completed. Resident construction engineer ing has been under the direction of C. C. McKinney, with P. F. Bur nett now in charge of the con struction of a section of highway 38. Bridge engineering has been under the direction of Alfred Rear, resident bridge engineer at Reeds port. Huge Cut Made Sections now under construction include the Reedsport-Winchester Bay stretch of 3.72 miles, under contract to Berke Brothers, of Portland, which involves such dra matic construction features as a cut increased, through solid rock, to a maximum depth of 120 feet from ditch grade to top of slope. A concrete box culvert extends a long distance under the road bed, which is being increased from 18 feet to 22 feet in width. Rock blasting and earth moving in the cut has been carried on in spite of continuous traffic, with only minor short time delays ne- Colorful Educational Agricultural Exhibits at your STATE FAIR SALEM 8 Startlm SAT KRXL PRESENTS FOR YOUR LISTENING PLEASURE STORY OF RIDDLE Another in tht Seriei of Progress Storitt 1:00 p.m. SUNDAY CENTENNIAL OF MUSIC 3:30 p.m. SUNDAY RETURN ENGAGEMENT 7:00 p.m. SUNDAY COULD THIS BE YOU 7:00 p.m. MONDAY FORWARD AMERICA 7:00 p.m. TUESDAY PACIFIC COAST BASEBALL BASEBALL EVERY NIGHT TUES. thru SUN.

Engineers anticipate that, with the rough grading well under way, work will continue in this section as long as weather permits, and work in the rock cut will continue as long as equipment can be mov ed in. Eliminate Curves The relocation will eliminate existing steep grades, and sharp curves, reducing the accident haz ard which the "cut" has represent ed in the past. -Berke Brothers also have the contract on the Mill Creek Bridge, highway 38. A modern, concrete pile bridge Is replacing a char acteristic "land mark" covered wooden structure, and is under the direction of the U. S. Bureau of Public Roads. E. L. Gates and Co., Portland contractors, have the' contract on the Winchester Bay-Clear Lake section of highway 101, which con tinues the relocations of the major coast artery south. Heavy equip ment, including several large cat and earth movers, released from a Gates highway project near Coos Bay, is now being moved into the section. A bridge, across Winches ter Creek, which empties into Winchester Bay, is being replaced by a 10 by 10 foot box culvert, now under construction. Working Day and Night The relocation, which is causing some minor traffic delay at pres ent, will eliminate hazardous curves and grades. The relocations program is extended south on the coast highway, construction work being under way at various points Detween Reedsport and Coos Bay, and from there south Gates is working day and night, using flood lights for night work, on the section south of Winchester Bay, The Winchester Bay-Clear Lake section involves the relocation fill on the edge of Clear Lake, water supply source of the city of Reeds port. Construction plans were worked out in cooperation, with State Highway Department en gineers, city of Reedsport officials and state sanitation authorities to eliminate possible water pollution hazards. The relocation program has re uired the removal and relocating of the PUD power lines in the highway vicinity, the Central Lin- coin run, of which Clyde Nun nally is the local manager, award ing the removal contract to the wuziK Electric Co. of Corvallis. Paling Land Planned Relocations survey has been made for the Gardiner-Elbow Lake section of highway 101. Construc tion plans have not been announc ed for that area, which will in volve 5.25 miles. Elimination of the dangerous horse-shoe curve north of Gardiner is projected, and creation of passing lanes on up-grade stretches is a projected feature of preliminary survey rec ommendations. . , Leonard and Slate, Portland contractors, are at work on the Reedsport-Dean Creek section of highway 38, which is being relo cated to follow the general route of the present Umpqua River Highway, with curvature and LET'S BE GO'NG TO UMPQUA CAVALCADE Sit froukds 3 EPIC NITES OREGON HISTORY RE-LIVED CAST OF 1500 GIGANTIC 225-FOOT STAGE CHORUS OF 150 MIXED VOICES ROSEBURG SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA 200 SQUARE DANCERS ORIGINAL MUSICAL SCORE COVERED WAGONS, HORSES, OXEN $3,000 IN LIGHTING TICKETS FOR ALL PERFORMANCES ON SALE AT FAIRGROUNDS BOXOFFKE DOUGLAS grade elimination Extensive comparative surveys were made for a proposed water level grade for that section, but the plan was rejected by the State Highway Department be cause of excess cost above the present "over-hill" grade, and the hazard of an extensive fill neces sitated over a ' slough area. A third or passing lane will be con structed on the up grade east of Reedsport. Tom Lillebo, Reedsport contrac tor, is at work on the Scholfield River bridge in Reedsport, part of the highway 101 relocations. N.w Type Bridg. The new, modern concrete bridge structure, now under con struction, represents a significant development in bridge construc tion methods. Beams of the bridge were pre-cast, the "pre fabricated" sections having been prepared before the bridge con struction started. They are to be hoisted onto the structure by cranes. Lillebo reports that the method Is highly satisfactory, represent ing a construction economy and insuring better curing of the con crete. The method has not been used extensively in bridge con struction in Oregon, but has prov ed successful elsewhere. The highway constuction, en tailing an up-heaval on major tour ist traffic routes in and out of the Reedsport area, has continued throughout the summer with no major traffic delays and no se rious accidents. Disgarded Cigarette Causes Glendale Fire The Douglas Forest Protective Association crew at Quines Creek has been busy between fires in improving buildings and grounds. This year, according to Warden Bud Knowles, only one fire was caused by smokers' carelessness. That was a fire occuring Friday evening along the highway in front of the AIM Lumber Com pany plant. It was directly trace able to a cigaret carelessly thrown from a passing car. No serious damage was done although a considerable grasa fire was start ed. Work has been done on the build ings, and a new well has been dug and water lines installed. The plant now consists of four buildings: a dormitory, wardens residence, garage and warehouse, and a fuel bouse. A ten-man crew and foreman and cook occupy the property from June 16 to September 20. The rest of the time, a resident war den and caretaker, Richard "Bud Knowles handles the work. Not only does the crew respond to forest fire calls, but the pumper at the station is always available in the case of rural fires. It car ries its own water and an 1150 foot hose. Bud Knowles states that a good source of water suppliment that carried by the pumper is also important. Once teeth break Uu-ough the gums they do not grow except at the roots. Gen.

The Douglas County Health De partment together with the State Board of Health, urged caution in using aeveral new types of insec ticidal vaporizen now being of fered for sale. 'While health authorities are in terested in all effective measures for insect control, it should be emphasized that vaporizing devic es can oe considered only an aid to good sanitation practice and should not be looked upon as a substitute for the elimination of insect breeding places, proper gar- oage ana reiuse disposal, clean garbage containers, and effective screens on windows and doors, the board said.- The chemicals going into the va porizers are toxic the board said. The following recommendations were offered: 1. The devices should not be used In homes or sleeping quarters. 2. Installation must be made only in commercial or industrial premises, mess halls, and similar location s where human exposure will be on a working day basis not continuous. 3. The insecticide shall be re- leased at the rate not to exceed one gram per 15,000 cubic feet per 24 Hours. (The average home prob ably does not have available 15,- 000 cubic feet of air snace.) 4. Devices shall be so construct ed that output in excess of that recommended is impossible. Fus es to protect against overloading and high temperatures, and a pi lot light to indicate whether or not the unit is operating should be "built-in" features. 5. Units should be mounted above head height and three feet or more from the ceiling. 6. Installation shall be such that any material which might con' dense on nearby equipment, walk or ceiling cannot be dislodged and fall into or otherwise contaminate looa.
