The two begin broadcasting Thursday afternoon from a booth near the student union building. The show is one of music and talk, with both sharing the microphone. If they reach their goal, they still will be broadcasting after mid night tonight. They have tabbed their stunt as a "duothon." White and French, radio speech majors at the college, had been preparing for their endurance try for several weeks. White said they believe they are the first ones to have tried such a stunt on radio. KUGR is a wired-wireless station carrying only into living groups on the campus. It is used as a com mercial training ground for stu dents in the radio field at the col lege. The station regularly is on the air from 3 to 5:30 and 7:30 to mid night seven days a week.

Harris Ellsworth described the need for and the progress to ward development of a second pay roll industry in Southwestern Ore gon when he talked before the Rid dle Chamber of Commerce Friday night. The congressman said the 30-mil-lion-dollar nickel mine and smelt ing operations at Nickel Mountain is one of a series of develop ments toward making the mining industry of major importance in furnishing new jobs and payrolls as a supplement to the lumber in dustry. He told of his efforts' in having the Bureau of Mines electrometal lurgical laboratory located at Al bany. His "successful efforts," he said, were conducted with the late Sen. Charles L. McNary. Research at the laboratory was begun on methods of refining low grade ores found in Western Ore gon. Experimental work done at the lab of nickel, aluminum and other ores has led to a new mineral in dustries being established. Ells worth cited the Riddle nickel plant and Apex manufacturing Co., pro ducing aluminum-silicon at Spring field. Zirconium first was commercial ly produced in Albany. Today, it's the world's second largest produc ing center of the metal, which is essential to atomic energy units. "Southwestern Oregon," said Ellsworth, "needs a strong second payroll industry along with the lumber industry, not only to fur nish new jobs, but to provide more economic stability to the area. We have a good start and I believe the future will bring the area many other successful mining and metal producing plants.", Discussing the problems of Ore gon's major industry, Ellsworth outlined needs for comprehensive long-range planning and manage ment for the timber resources of our federal forests. He indicated that at present, programs were limited to two or three years ahead. "Efficient management cannot be based on such short term plans," Ellsworth said. 'Within a year or two I expect to see a long range plan developed based on ad equate access road program which will make possible annual harvest of the allowable cut." Ellsworth also discussed develop ment of other resources and facil ities in the 4th District, such as harbor development, flood control, reclamation and O & C land problems.

Porter Stresses Access Road Need In Talk At Riddle "Timber access roads are tht key to not only profitable, but also in sound management of public timber," Charles 0. Porter Demo cratic candidate for U.S. repre sentative told an audience at tht Riddle Grade scnooi rnaay nignt. Porter said at Riddle that if he is elected in November he will work hard lor a "Diue cnip invest, ment" in access roads. He said ha was in favor of aid to Sen. Waynt Morse in seeking authorization for such roads to the tune of 50 mil lion dollars for the next 10 yean, He also took a siap at nis op ponent, Harris Ellswortn. "He hit conceaeo ine icucia buvchuucqi gets back ?10 from every dollar it spends for access roads, yet he decries Morse's efforts to persuade Congress to appropriate 50 million for access roads." Porter went on to say that "ac cess roads result in permitting the Forest Service to put up smaller y sales to get better prices for its timber and to do a better job ol management." He said that in ev ery instance the Forest Service hai "quickly recaptured the cost of the road and made a profit for the treasury." Earlier in the day at a Demo cratic luncheon in Roseburg'i Har lequin Club, Porter took aim at what he called Ellsworth's "part nership program." He claimed Ellsworth was trying "to delay achievement of needed benefits in flood control and power from the Cougar and Green Peter dams. 'Ellsworth's incomplete bills for 'partnership' at Green Peter on the Santiam and Cougar on the Mc Kenzie have no provision for how much each oartner pays, only a vague statement that the allocation will be decided upon," Porter said. He said: "What we need in Ore gon is low cost, abundant power. . , Partnership means high cost pow er because the interest rates on money borrowed to finance the power part of the dam is substan tially higher than the 2.5 per cent rate paid by the federal govern ment when it supplies the capital." Porter called the Bonneville Pow er Administration Program "a blue chip investment for all the people of our nation." Between speeches, Porter made hand-shaking tours of Martin Bros. Box Co., U.S. Plywood and Harbor Plywood. Roseburg Man Arrested For No Driver's License John Mitchell Carmon, 21, 1315 SE Flint St., was arrested by state ponce rnday.
