60-Year-Old Couple Adopts Six
' Mexican Children Without A Home
Br ANITA EDIN -News-Review
Staff Writer
If you are about 60 years of age
and have raised a family of seven
already, then what do you think
about raising six more children?
Gee. that's an awful thought isn't
it or is it?
It seems as though Mr. and Mrs.
Robert Hyde didn't think it would
be such a bad idea, so they pro
ceeded to adopt six, homeless,
Mexican children, all members of
the Rodriquez family.
"Six More At Sixty" by Robert
Hyde is the heartwarming story of
how the author and his wife went
about raising the family, with an
abundance of love and patience
and reasonable discipline. He re
lays the variety of activities they
and the Rodriquezes children enjoy
while living together as a family.
Truly this is a rewarding story
and one a little out of the ordinary.
Such a task is something most peo
ple of 30 would not even consider.
Rivalry Told
A close look into hospital life in
indicates it does not always have
the hard-working 'rosy' atmosphere
it appears to have. Such is the case
at East Side General, a busy and
fashionable New York hospital. For
the most part the doctors are hard
- working, dedicated individuals.
But, like all, they are human and
matters of life and death some,
times take second place to rivalry
and personal ambition.
So goes the story of Neil Wend
ling in "Son And Heir" by Edith
P. Begner. At 47, Wendling had
been at East Side General for
more than IS years, serving as as
sistant to the eminent.surgeon, Dr.
Victor Sprague. After a time,
Wendling became Sprague's un
critical apostle, letting his admir
ation blind him. He often worked
extra hours, turned over wealthy
patients to Sprague and postponed
his own operations to accommo
date his superior. Then a serious
accident forces Sprague to the hos
pital for months. At last, Wend
ling has the opportunity to stand
on his own two feet, an oppor
tunity he almost fouls up because
of the tug of old loyalties and

younger man takes toward confi

tagonizes the. convalescing Sprague
until at last Wendling is forced to
see his superior Mr. Sprague as
he really is: a man who will stop
at nothing in order to humiliate
Wendling and once again reduce
him to subservience. Certainly this
book is educational in more ways
than one.
Chuckler For Boys
A chuckler for the bovs is "Good
Old Archibald" by Ethelyn M.
Parkinson. The author has a good
deal of knowledge about boys and
tells her tale in such a manner
that it becomes a side-splitting,
rollicking story. It seems that
things happen plenty fast at Brook
field School. Good old Ralph had
hardly left when 'good old Archi
bald' stepped in and took his seat.
At that time it seems that the big
baseball game with the Lawson
Lions was only weeks away. The
weeks prior to the game are pack
ed with events and excitement
too!

WIL'AMETTE UNIVERSITY
Gillis, a well known ball player,
went to work for the Republic Dye
Company. The employees of this
company formed baseball team
calling themselves the Republic
Dye Baseball Club. This club was
admitted into the "X" league. The
formation of the team and its ad
mission into the league was initial'
ed by the employees. The employ
er paid the league entrance fee,
the cost of uniforms, bats and
balls. The uniforms bore the name
of the company.
Gillis was injured while playing
ball for the company baseball
team. He claims workmen's com
pensation for this injury. Gillis con
tended that, although the games
were played after regular working
hours, the activity was of mutual
benefit to his employer and to him
self. THE COURT HELD: The court
held that the recreational activity
was not an incident of employment
and. therefore, the iniurv sustained
by the employee did not arise nut
of and in the course of the em
ployment. The court further held
that the employee's participation
in the ball game was a purely per
sonal act from which, as between
himself and his employer, he alone
benefited. Gillis' claim was denied.

are trying to hoodwink tribal

The Bureau of Indian Affairs

"No such approval has or wi

The produce market moved along
with little change of importance
this week. Most crops are coming
out of California and Mexico at
this time. The only Roseburg area
crops are cauliflower, turnips and
rutabagas.
Local cauliflower is between cut
tings, the January-February crop
just about at an end and the
March-April crop not yet in full
production. So the local supply is
very limited. It remains very
good, however. Turnips and ru
tabagas still supply the local de
mand. Potatoes were unchanged. Some
strength was shown in the yam
and sweet potato market, as the
supply out of storage began de
creasing. Carrots, likewise, were
in a firm position, the supply being
inadequate to meet demand. This
conditinon should level off soon.
Parsnips continue good.
... Dry onions were continuing to
gain strentMh, and the market
should finish very firmly. While
onions expected out of New Mex
ico have failed to arrive because
of the storm conditions, and Cal
ifornia Reds aren't yet on the
market.
Lettuc also showed some
strength, after a very weak posi
tion. The quality however is very
good but the supply is down. Ro
maine, Red lettuce and endive are
very good. Radishes and green on
ions were in short supply but ex
cellent in quality.
There was little change in the
cabbage, celery, egg plant and
broccoli picture. Artichokes show
ed some signs of frost, but are
very good. Brussel sprouts are all
but finished. Banana squash and
some of the Danish variety are all
that remain.
Aiparagus dropped very slightly
in price. While still in the lux
ury class, it is very fine in qual
ity. Fresh greens may be had.
Cucumbars are very scarce. The
Mexican supply is just about non
existent, and hot houses haven't
started producing in quantity. Pep
pers also are higher than usual,
but adequate in supply. Tomatoes
are the surprise items, the price
being from $2 to $2W cheaper than
usual for this time of the year, all
coming out of Mexico and very
good.
Hothouse rhubarb is limited in
supply and high, as yet.
Apples remained plentiful, and
storage pears continue available
Emperior grapes are in their last
stage now, but the quality remains
good.
Oranges have leveled off so far
as the price of the various grades
are concerned. Lemons are little
changed. Indian River grape
fruit has about another month to
go. The quality is excellent and
the price reasonable. Olher, vari
eties also are to be had. Improved
quality bananas are arriving. Pine
apple and cocoanuts from the Ha
waiian Islands keep coming in. The
dale supply appears adequate for
the Lenten season.
There was no change in the egg
and poultry market.
