Monty Lynch Day Set for Next Week The, final drive in the March of Dimes will be underway next week reports Maynard Wilson, chairman, yesterday. A day next week will be desig nated as Monty Lynch Day. Monty Lynch is a local polio vic tim who is paralyzed from the neck down. Boy Scout troops and other organizations will lend their assistance for this day. Other events are being planned for this last week of the March of Dimes in an all out effort to raise the needed funds. I^ne coun ty, including the Cottage Grove area, is way behind the minimum goal set for the year’s March of Dimes. interest in the Bohemia Lumber I Co., and in the new concern. In making the announcement of the new plant, officials said act ual construction on the plant will start as soon as the weather con ditions permit. As a preliminary to the location of the plant adjacent to the Bohemia Lumber Co. at Culp Creek, several buildings have been razed to make room for the new building which will be fifty feet by 250 feet. The main equip ment of the new plant will consist of a lathe, barker and clipper. Of ficials hope to have the plant in operation by July 1st. Officials also said twenty men will be employed in the plant to start, but that the number will likely be doubled by fall, if the operations work on schedule. For the Bohemia Lumber Co., this will be the first of a series of steps in a projected complete wood utiliza tion plan. ., 4 Another departure from the usual timber operations is the fact that the new concern will estab lish a market for peeler logs or parts thereof which have been left in the logged off areas in this sec tion. Officials said they hoped to encourage and employ indepen dent logging operators. The supply of peeler logs will come from the national forest and the O.& C. holding on the Bohemia section. The new plant will have a capacity of 75,(XX) feet of logs daily. The Bohemia Lumber Co. mill will not increase its daily capacity, but will be field to the same production as over the past several months.
