I would like to share with you observations I have made in my years of at tending search and rescue proceedings on Mt Hood. I have noticed that many items in the brochure leave a little bit unsaid. Registering-The fact that a party does not report in by their estimated return time does not arbitrarily start a search. In fact, the number of people who fail to report in, or who deliberately overstay their established time, has become such that we will not start a search on this premise alone, l eadership Many mistakes that have caused accidents on Mt Hood were made by inexperienced leaders. The fact a person has climbed a few times does not necessarily make him an adequate leader; that a leader of party has climbed on other peaks does not make them adequate guides on a log shrouded mountain. Map and Compass-Both are useless unless the clim ber knows howto use them well It is necessary to study a large mountain in clear weather Indore a map will mean much A predetermination of compass hearings on open parts of the route is mandatory during high storm conditions. This very laet would have kept three boys out of a crevasse last month. Due barely perceptible l.indlorm on the south side of Mt Hood is the lay of the mountain to the west. Contrary to popular belief, it is not "straight down" from Crater Rock to Timberline lodge The upper mountain on the south side routes is definitely west till ing, and any climbers lost in a fog in this area will wander westward into Zig Zag or Sandy River Canyons horrible places to he lost. I rem em ber one sunny Angus, day when three separate climbing parties of 18 (wople spent 36 hours ou, here They did no, know the moun tain faced west; they did no, use a compass and they were not prepart'd for a sudden summer storm.

F R A N C IS C O Glen Whallon, recently filing his candidacy for the legislature from Clackamas County spoke to a group of veterans, expressing dismay that the title assigned to Ballot Measure No. 3 does not convey to the voter the real content of the proposed constitutional change. "It is a mystery to me,” Whallon declared, "that this ballot title was not challenged at the outset. It should have been.” Whallon maintains that the ballot title for Measure No. 3 poses only a few minor points contained in the measure and ignores the sweeping an sub stantive changes that form the basis of the constirutional revision proposal. RECREATION REPORT MOUNTAIN CLIMBING AND HIKING by Kurt Kessler A D ED IC A TE D , HARD W ORKING D E M O C R A T - • • • • The Pionaires and a dance combo sang and played several numbers for approximately 200 diners. Strongly opposed to the provision which would remove the Veterans Loan Fund from the present Constitution, Whallon believes that this issue, among other important revisions, should be spelled out in the ballot title. “As the title now reads,” Whallon insists, “the average voter unfamiliar with the issue , will consider it an innocuous but desirable proposal that really does no much alter our governmental structure. He is not being permitted to see the massive bulk of the iceburg underneath.” HELP!

Post Photo) ENERGY, INGENUITY and enthusiasm was displayed by students and teachers at the annual Firwood School Circus Friday. Clown wall murals, pop-corn for visiting Long-distance rates hiked 50 per cent in local areas Long-distance telephone rates on so-called “short-haul calls” have been increased as much as 5« per cent by General Telephone. The increases went into ef fect March 1 but due to the normal lag in billing long distance calls were not ap parent until recent receipt of April statements. A short-haul call is one of less than 55 miles. A long-distance call from Gresham to the Damascus area, for instance, now costs 15 cents instead of 10 cents as had been the case for some time. A G eneral Telephone spokesman explained that the increases were not instituted by G eneral, instead reflected higher rates charged by the Bell system for use of long distance lines. There was, apparently, no prior notification locally of the rate increases since General was not directly involved. A spokesman for the State Public Utility Commission, which approved the rate increases, conceded that General Telephone subscribers were not notified of the hearings. The Bell system filed early last year for higher long distance charges for intra-state calls, in effect the same as those earlier approved by the LITTERS TO T H i« a « a 0 EDITOR m a il ICC lor interstate calls. The PUC held hearings last fall and last December, issued an order granting ap proximately 15 per cent of the Bell request. Bell, however, came back two weeks later with a synopsis of 1969 earnings and repeated its request for higher intro-state rates. This, the PUC granted Jan. 28 without additional hearings to become effective March 1. The rate increases vary from 20 to 50 per cent, depending upon the distance of the call. A call from 1 to 10 miles goes to 15 0 To The Editor: I am in favor of law and order, administered locally. I am in favor of the citizens’ right to keep and bear arms. I am also in favor of a property- owner's right to vote on any legislation that effects his land. This means that I'm in favor of Bill Elliot for Clackamas County Commissioner. Position No. 2. because these things are what he has always stood for. I am against "Tri-M et” appointees taxing business men. without their vote, for any purpose whatsoever, because this way lies dictatorship I. like Bill Elliot, believe we cannot keep Oregon if we allow appointed overlords to prey on any segment of our society. I agree with Bill Elliot, that the Proposed New Constitution for Oregon takes away the sovereignty of the people of our state It does this in the very firs, section of its Bill of Rights, when it deletes these words All power is inherent in the people.” These words were insisted on by our intelligent forebears in 1859 when they drafted our present Con stitution But these words or any language of sim ilar meaning are found nowhere in the proposed constitution to be voted on in our May 26 primary'. Turn to page 12 in your voter's pamphlet to see if any of our Clackamas County can diotes endorse this proposed Constitution. You will not find Bill Elliot's name there I believe the reasons I have listed will make it elear why I favor Bill Elliot for Clackamas County Commissioner, position No J. Grace A. Lien Estacada cents, from 10 to 20 .miles to 20 cents etc. The PUC spokesman said th at General Telephone or Western Valley (Damascus), for instance, actually had no say in the rate increases. Bell fixes the charges for use of its long-distance lines and local companies have no alternative hut to pass these on. A call from Damascus to Gresham is routed through Portland and must use Bell lines even though a neighbor may be calling someone across the street.
