To my friend, Joe Leuthold, of
Government Camp who has climbed
many a mountain. One of his many
conquests of the high peaks was
Saint Peters Dome near Bonne
ville dam.
Its riverside face rises two thou
sand feet, half of that height be
ing cliff. The climb was a tri
umph of skill, daring and cooper
ation of the other members of
the party.
Before man began to climb
mountains he worshipped them. He
named them Himalaya, The Abode
of Snow; Denali, The Great One;
Kilimanjaro,
Mountain of the
Demon of Cold.
Late In the 18th century, Eur
opeans overcame these fears and
conquered Mont Blanc. Then the
other great peaks of the Alps
were tamed. In 1865, Edward
Whymper, after seven failures,
scaled that mountain of “beauty
and magic and terror”..... the Mat
terhorn. It was his “most glor
ious hour”.
But tragedy stained the triumph.

and four of his companions plung

precipice to precipice --nearly
4000 feet.
Why climb a mountain? “Be
cause it is there”, said George
Leigh-Mallory who perished on
Mount Everest in 1924. Other men
might give other reasons; adven
ture, or to explore unknown ran
ges, but real men climb in ans
wer to a challenge.
In 1924 George-Leigh-Mallory
and Andrew Irvine, in an attempt
to climb Mount Everest, vanished
at 27,950 feet, just short 1078 feet
of the summit. No trace of their
bodies has ever been found.
Sir Edmond Hillary conqueror of
Mount Everest made his base camp
at 17,900 feet and still had 11,128
feet to climb to the summit. He
set a record of 10 minutes without
oxygen at 29,028 feet but Whit
taker and Sherpa Gombu of the
American expedition spent 3 1/2
agonizing hours without oxygen,
when their supply was exhausted
on top of the mountain.
The American Everest exped-
itlon, biggest in U.S. history, sec
ond largest to scale the King
of Kings of the Himalayas, cost
$400,000 and will take a long time
to pay for. Purchase of the book,
“Americans on Everest” can help
defray some of the expense, as
proceeds are turned over to the
supporting group.
Do you know that Ludwig Pust-
scheller, 1849-1900, an Austrian
mountain climber, ascended 1,700
of the world’s tallest peaks. Sev
eral hundred of these had never
been climbed before.

A few fishing tips- our Sandy
River is rapidly getting better for
shad. Once you catch one of these
babies you’re really hooked. Tim
othy Lake in our own Mt. Hood
area has been real good for Kak-
anee.
I like this; a veteran angler
was moved to write these words
at the passing of his fishing
pardner. The words are now cast
in a bronze tablet on a rock
beside a swiftly flowing trout
stream:
“When mist and shadows rob
pool and sun of shape and sub
stance. When the voice of the
wood thrush stills, and the dog
trout shakes his lethargy, well ••■ill
we remember, stalwart gentle
master of the Angler’s art.
Half submerged In the smother.
Unerringly shooting that long line,
watchfully minding the drift.
Nevermore will your skilled hands
tempt the patriarchs of the flood.
Farewell, Old Timer.”

Ringworm, often called “tinea”,
is a fungus infection of the skin.
Several different types of fungi
are involved, but the name given
to the particular Infection is based
mainly on its location.
Athletes Foot, or ringworm
of the hands and feet, is by far
the most common. Specific treat
ment depends on the type of er
uption. Socks must be boiled and
shoes sterilized. An easy way to do
this is to place an inner sole cut
of blotting paper and soaked in
4% formalin inside the shoes for
24 hours, followed by 24 hours
exposure to open air and sun.
Ringworm of the face, arms
hands or neck begins as one or
several reddish irregular, slightly
raised scaly patches. It spreads
out along the edges and clears in
the center. Itching, if present, is
mild. This type can be contracted
from (or given to) animals.
Tinea cruris is a variety of
the above type but occurs in moist
folds and is very apt to become
infected by bacteria.
Ringworm of the scalp, caused
by different fungi, is almost com
pletely limited to children and until
fairy recent times was cured only
by the onset of puberty.
Treatment was very frustrating.
At the end of the 19th century the
diagnostic and treatment center in
France was the St. Louis hospital.
The greatest dermatologists of
the time worked there. However,
all cases of scalp disease from
this great institution were referred
to the laymen, Mahon & Son, for
treatment, which was a family
secret.
The cause
was discovered
around 1900 to be a variety of
fungi. Deliberate clinical infect
ions were produced and the course
of the disease studied. It was
found that factors in blood serum
limited the invasion of the skin.
Generally ringworm of the scalp
tends to occur in circulation
patches. The hair in these areas
is lost and broken off. The patches
may be single or many, large or
small, and often join each other.
Until recently, since there was
no uniformly successful agent
for treatment, doses of X-ray
to produce temporary complete
hair loss was the theraphy of choice
because this was a severe public
health problem.
The work on the present treat
ment got underway in 1939 with
the discovery of a metabolic pro
duct of Pénicillium, a mold, which
has uses in agriculture. In 1947
griseofulvin was identified and stu
died as an anti-fungal agent. The
first use on man was reported in
1958.
Now it is in the treatment of
choice in ringworm of the scalp
and is used in the other types
when other measures fail. Pro
longed treatment is often neces
sary with this antibiotic, but it
is effective and toxic effects are
minor and not common.
There are many more skin in
fections caused by fungi, but they
are not common in this country.
Cattlemen Meet

and George Russell, Vale, member
of the Feeder Committee of the
Oregon Cattlemen’s Association
industry
joined western cattle
leaders in Boise, Ida., last week
to map out plans to step up
the action to secure passage of
important legislation now before
Congress.
Feeders and ranchers from ten
western states met at a special
conference in Boise which has
been arranged by the Idaho Cat
tlemen’s Association and the Idaho
Cattle Feeders Association. They
endorsed the principle of leg-
islation which would limit the
importation of red meat to the
average imports of 1958-1963.
The group also urged changes
in beef grading to allow for more
orderly marketing of lighter weight
animals apd urged
a stepped
up promotional activities.
