Reception con tacts nearly doubled, and unem ployed claims rose to over 2000 per week during the middle of the month. When moderate weather set in toward the end of the month, the claim load was directly affected by the re turn of loggers and lumber workers to their former jobs." Loggers Impeded “Lumbering and logging,” con tinued Huff, “slowed down to a snail’s pace in December. Bad weather continued into January, closing most operations through heavy snows and softening roads. Considerable weather mod eration during the latter part of January resulted in many operators calling their crews to work again. The resumption of woods activity brought about a sharp decline in the unemployed ranks, and the continuance of good weather should decrease the number further. An estimat ed 1200 were unemployed the middle of January but dropped fast the latter part of the month.” “Little agricultural activity has been evidenced thus far in the new year,’ ’said Huff. “The only calls for workers during January were for fruit tree pruners. With the continuance of good weather much greater activity is anticipated for the near future. Some berry grow ers have already ordered pla toons for next May or June.” BOWLING The Sandy Merchants Wom en’s bowling team split with the Rip Van Winkle team Thurs day night.
