Umpqua National Forest
Recently we clieckcj road condi
tions to Tiller via Quartz Mountain.
A slightly longer trip (154 total
miles) is possible, via the Rhodo
dendron Ridge Road. This involves
only 43 .milqs of. good graveled
road. The same rules and precau
tions goycrn for. this trip as for
that previously described in Tour
I. , , ,'

Drive down to Tiller and take
the road to the left at the Tiller
Bridge. It is marked: "Camp Com
fort 27 miles." You will leave the
black-top 6.4 miles up the river,
and enter National Forest land a
mile beyond. Keep the South Ump
qua River to your right as you pro
ceed up this drainage.
Five miles beyond the forest
boundary you will see the Dumont
Creek Campground and two miles
beyond this, the Boulder Creek
Campground. Just beyond the Boul
der Creek Campground (0.4 miles)
there is a sign marking Campbell
Falls Viewpoint. These falls com
memorate a forest worker killed
early in World War II.

THE ROSEBURG-TILLER outo trip through the Umpqua
National Forest affords spectacular . views of timbered
mountoins and cascading streams. Photo above shows a
small waterfall on; the upper reaches of the South Umpqua
River.
Campground are 20.2 miles up the
river from Tiller. A fish ladder
here permits salmon to make their
way around the falls to the spawn
ing beds beyond. Nine-tenths of a
mile beyond the falls there is a
deep hole where a number of salm
on can be seen spending the sum
mer while awaiting the fall spawn
ing season.
Six miles upstream from t h e
falls you will find Camp Comfort
There are camping and picnicking
facilities, in addition to the guard
station where a small fire-fighting
crew spends the summer.
The road leaves the river at this
point and commences climbing to
ward French Junction. This im
portant road junction was the goal
of Forest Service personnel for
many years as they sought to im
prove access throughout the for
est. It serves as an important link
between the North and South
Umpqua drainages. A third road
now comes in to permit easy ac
cess to Little River as well. The
junction itself is 12.4 miles up the
ridge from Camp Comfort.
Travel Ridge Road
At the junction, proceed straight
ahead on the Rhododendron Ridge
Road. Flowers along this ridge are
gorgeous in the spring and some
are blooming well into July. Be
sure to take advantage of the su
perb view of snow-capped Mt. Bail
ey and Mt. Thielsen as you go over
this stretch of road which termi
nates at the Copeland Creek-Big
Camas junction 7.7 miles beyond.
You are 57 miles from Roseburg
at this point. Turn left and drive
the 7.3 miles down the ridge to the
North Umpqua Highway and black
top pavement once more.
Five campgrounds await your
pleasure between this junction and
the National Forest boundary 21.2
miles downriver.
The boundary is 40.9 miles from
the coiner of NE Stephens St. and
NE Diamond Lake Blvd. in Rose
burg. This trip, of course, can be
made in either direction from Rose
burg. It was described from the
Tiller end simply . because the
roads were checked from there.

By MYRON FEINSILBER
SHEPPTON, Pa. (UPI) A
television camera lowered in
search of miner Louis Bova, trap
ped for 16 days, recorded early
today "what looked like the en
tire body of a man," according
to H. Beecher Charmbury, state
secretary of mines.
The camera, Charmbury said,
was lowered into the escape hole
through which David Fellin and
Henry Throne were dramatically
rescued early Tuesday.
The Aug. 18 cave-in which im
prisoned ail three miners had
trapped Bova separately from
the other two, and they said they
had not heard from him since
Aug. 20 but Charmbury said it
was possible Bova had come into
the chamber since Fellin and
Throne were rescued.
The camera, according to
Charmbury, recorded what "look
ed like the entire body of a man
a miner s hat, head, shoulders,
arms, legs and boots." The form,
he said, appeared to be in a sit
ting position against a wooden
post.
However,. Charmburg empha
sized that the findings of the
camera were not conclusive. "It
appears to be a man's body," he
said. "We are by no means sure
of this." ......
He said further pictures were
being taken and that a volunteer
might be lowered into the hole
today. Whether to send one of
mora than 20 volunteers down was
to depend on the hazards involved
and the scrutiny of pictures.
Originally it had been planned
to take pictures down .another
hole, 22 Inches wide, reamed down
Thursday to the presumed loca
tion of the 52-year'old Bova.
"There's a man down there."
Thus did 21-ycar-old William Un
ger, one of the volunteers, ex
plain his willingness to go down
after Bova. Unger said he did not
know Bova, but "that doesn't
make any difference not to me,
it doesn't."
Unger, a slender six-footer who
weighs a wiry 150 pounds, quit
high school to go into the mines
at age 15. Of his young wife
Marie, mother of his baby daugh
ter, Unger says that his volun
teering is "okay with her...
"Sure she's worried, but she al
ways worries when I'm in the
mines."

Unger thinks Bova is alive,
though chances for his survival
are conceded slim by almost all
observers here. He said his only
worries on going down would be

combination of coal dust and car
bon monoxide.

va 's presumed location has been

Controversy continued Thursday
over a contention by David Fel
lin, who was dramatically rescued
with Henry Throne early Tues
day, that they should have been
brought out after 5 instead of 15
days.

Slaying Of Young Career Girls
Was Crime That Shocked A City
Fellin, a co-owner of the mine,
had told newsmen- that rescuers
should have dug through the old
mine shaft, instead of drilling new
probes to the two . men.
Officials Take Issue
The three leaders of the res
cue effort took immediate issue
with Fellin's statement. Gordon
Smith, deputy state director of
mines, said it was partly Fellin's
fault that the mine caved in.
"The miners in this ooeration
were removing pillars of coal,"
Smith said. "Fellin showed he
doesn't know all there is to know
about mining by getting himself
in this predicament." . .
The mine, abandoned in 1929.
had been worked again sporadical-1
ly since 1950. Smith said Fellin
was "taking out .coal pillars left
all those years" , to support the'
mine. '
Resent Criticism
Clyde Machamer, president of
the Independent Miners Associa
tion (IMA), said rescue workers
who had risked their lives to save
Fellin resented his criticism of
the rescue.
"The man should have been en
tirely grateful," Machamer said.
"I don't understand it neither
do I care much. The important
thing is that these men are up.
Now we hope for a third miracle
to bring up Bova.
"Certainly there is deep resent
ment among the workers who
worked so hard to effect1 the re
covery of the collapse '. . . You
have to explain to them that
these men (Fellin and Throne)
are under duress and don't know
the condition of the shaft."
Dr. H. Beecher Charmbury,
state secretary of mines, said
Fellin's statement had depressed
morale among the rescue work
ers, and confirmed that some vol
unteers had left the site.
But Eugene J. Gibbons, partner
with Fellin in developing the
mine, said he thought Fellin had
"been subjected to interviews and
made statements without having
all the facts and in a tired, weak
ened condition."
Gibbons added, "I have not
been permitted to see him to tell
him of the stupendous effort
made to save him ... 1 think I
am better qualified to speak for
the partnership-A. . and I repeat
my words of praise for all who
helped in the rescue effort."

UPI Women's Editor
NEW YORK (UPI) They come
by the thousands each year to
New York. They arrive just out
of high school or college, young,
eager, and hopeful of what the
big city possesses, glamour, ca
reer, excitement, challenge.
They add up to twos and threes
to afford a neat apartment in a
nice neighborhood in those first
months in big, frightening; com
petitive New York. They take jobs
as secretaries, receptionists, mod
els, researchers marking time
as they pursue a special design.
These thousands are the young
career girls who in most in
stances are swallowed into the
anonymity that the city of eight
million persons prescribes except
for the rare few. Then, these
blaze forth in a few years as bus
iness executives, as designers, as
names in lights on broadway. Or
sometimes, with tragic sudden
ness, as names in headlines when
murder is done.
. Two Die Violently
Murder happened for two of
those hopefuls this week, with the
slaying of Janice Wylie, 21, a
green-eyed blonde with a prom
ising career in acting ahead, and
Emily Hoffert, 23, who in early
September was to start teaching
in Valley Stream, N.Y., a Long
Island suburb.
The two died violei.tly in a four
room furnished, $250 a month
apartment in one of Manhattan's
"best" residential sections the
east 80's.
Three young women shared the
apartment the third, Patricia
Tolles, 23, an employe of Time
Magazine, apparently survived be
cause she left before the .slayer,
or slayers, broke into the apart
ment, slashed two victims to
death, then bound their bodies to
gether with bed sheets. Miss
Wylie was the daughter of Max
Wylie, author and executive with
an advertising agency, and niece
c' Philip Wylie, the author. She
was employed at Newsweek, but
had studied acting and had done
some summer stock. -
Miss Hoffert came from i so
cially prominent family in Edina,
Minn., an exclusive suburb of
Minneapolis. . ,
Crime Shocks City
The crime shocked the city.
And it caused many a young
woman and her parents to ask,
how safe is' life away from the
immediate protection of the fam
ily? How safe the big .town? ...
I asked Walter Arm, Deputy
Police Commissioner of New
York, to answer for1 parents and
for the young women looking to
a future in the - nation's largest
city. . y i'i,
"We cannot guarantee or insure
safety," said Arm.
But he pointed to. a Police De
partment analysis of an FBI re
port on crime nationally in 1962.
Ul the 25 most populated cities
New York ranked 18th in murder,
17th in forceful rape, 18th in rob
bery, 10th in aggravated assault
and 20th in burglary.
Demo Leaders To Meet
There will be a meeting of the
Douglas County Central Commit
tee at 2 p.m. Sunday, Sept.' 8, in
the Douglas County Courthouse.
All committeemen and Committee
women as well as other -members
and friends are urged to attend.
Preceding the meeting, the ex
ecutive board will meet at 1 p.m.
in the Coral Room of the Umpqua
Hotel.
