(News Review Photo bv Chris) Trimmed ETV Budget Wins Approval Of Legislators SALEM (UPI) A trimmed educational television budget of $906,900 with a feature designed to stimulate state and local school participation won legislative committee approval Wednesday. The Ways and Means Education subcommittee voted for the sum, which is $57,100 less than the gov ernor had proposed. Furthermore, $70,000 of the sum approved by the subcommittee would be available only if the higher education system, the edu cation department, or local school districts put up $2 for each $1 of state money, i Rep. John Mosser, R-Beavcrlon, expressed hope that would encour age the state's school and college systems to take part more seri ously in educational, television. The subcommittee abandoned a proposal to put educational tele vision and radio under an inde pendent council and decided to leave it under higher education, where it is a semi - independent branch. Cultural Broadcasts Most of the money approved by the committee for the 19B3-65 bi ennium, $696,900 of it, would go to the system for cultural broadcasts and its "college of the air." Of the rest, $60,000 would go to higher education and $80,000 to Mrs.T.Pargeter To Head Auxiliary Mrs. Thomas Pargctcr was elect ed president of the Roseburg Lions Auxiliary at the group's meeting this week. Mrs. Ray Doerner is the new vice president; .Mrs. Willard Bu chanan, secretary; Mrs. Thomas Hartfiel. treasurer; and M r s. George Foster, lion tamer. Mrs. William Unrath and Mrs. Frank Sumstine have been named directors. Mrs. Pargeter and Mrs. Doerner have been selected as delegates to the Lions Slate Convention in Bak er May 23, 24 and 25. At the meeting, plans were made to assist with the White Cane Week homemade candy sale which will be held here Saturday, today mem bers were busy sacking candy for the sale. the Department of Education for school programming. The effect of the budget approved by the subcommittee would be to hold back the expan sion of the 5-year-old state educa tional television system, which had hoped to increase its broad cast hours. Educational radio is included in the budget. The subcommittee indicated it may also approve $101,000 in state matching funds to construct the proposed Mary's Peak broadcast ing facilities which would increase the range of ETV farther up the Columbia River. TB Hospitals Discussed The subcommittee also dis cussed a new proposal on what to do about the state's two tubercu losis hospitals in Portland and Salem. The legislators are trying to consolidate the operations. The governor suggested moving all patients to Salem for a $600,000 saving. Opponents replied most patients come from the Portland area, and the expert medical help is mainly at the Portland hospital. The Portland hosnital. however. Is not large enough for all pa tients, now aDout iuu. Rep. Ross Morgan, D-Gresham, revealed the Multnomah County Commission has expressed will ingness to handle state patients at its county hospital and annex between Troutdalc and Fairview, which would supplement the Port land hospital. Morgan said the rale proposed by the county would save the slate an additional $300,000. No action was taken.

In that year, only 83 miles of road pene trated the lands that for centuries knew onlv the tread of moccasined feet. Public-use demands have chang ed that picture! An example of that change is an announcement today of tentative plans to oavc 16.8 miles of Steam boat Road above Steamboat Rang er Station in two separate con tracts this summer. The Umpqua National Forest's present 1,400-mile road system is growing in two ways: In length and quality. Roads penetrating the forest arc constructed primarily for econom ic development, but soon the es-i thetic values lure the general pub-j lie. As general travel increases,! the gravel slowly gives way to a highway surface. Using cooperative maintenance monies, plans are to call for bids on a single-lift resurfacing of 514 miles from Canton Creek to Steel-; head Creek on the first contract i of the proposed Steamboat Road j improvement. Bids for this con- tract will be opened June 5. Forest Engineer Walt Futren said if funds are available, a two-lift bituminuous mat will be- placed on. the next 11.4 miles of the Steamboat Road shortly :ifter the first of July. This will 'pave the section from Steelhead 'Creek to Little Rock Creek. Steamboat Road is the main log haul route on the forest Ujinspojta tion system. Furen indioatca that substantial savings in road main tenance will be realize 1 by this improvement work. Those with a yen far a scenic drive will be glad to learn that this road may now 'be traveled over Bearbones Mountain. This route leads over the D ivide to Hills Creek Reservoir, just 38 miles from the Steamboat Range); Station. Oak ridge is approximately 10 miles beyond.
