Northam points out that the farm-to- city movement is now being replaced by a migration form the big city to the smaller city. • People are less enamored of metropolitan city life now than e a rlie r,” Northam contends, as evidenced by the “ counter stream of m i gration ’’ This is prompted not only by the problems of tran sportation, c rim e and poverty in large cities but also by the desire for more of the “ amenities of life.” Northam believes Lower retirement ages, higher retirement incomes, and a wish for a less crowded setting are helping to prompt the migration to attractive smaller cities, he added In Oregon, this small city attraction is exemplified in Forest Grove, Bend. L aG ra n d e , P e n d le to n , Newport and Ashland, he observed “ The migration to smaller cities has a lot of ra m ific a tio n s ,” Northam noted “ What about the availability of housing in these smaller cities? Will the public services be able to keep pace w ith pop ulation gains'* What are the impacts on land use planning** “ Maybe some of our small c itie s w ill need urban renewal program s to revitalize the city center,” Northam said. “ The city is a complex, baffling, and not easily un derstood creation of civilization, and no one can claim to have complete knowledge or understanding of this creation which has been approxamately 5,000 years in the making.” the geographer pointed out Although cities often are the focal points of human conflict «war and crime, for exam ple) and natu ra l disasters (earthquakes, floods, hurricanes, etc.), ‘ ‘ they also provide the seedbed for much of human a chieve m en t,” N ortham noted “ The inventive genius of man frequently is seen in urban centers, and much of human technology has originated in workshops and laboratories in urban areas ” The trend up to now has been for cities to get bigger and bigger, the geographer explained “ But how big can they get without becoming unmanageable?” There are few big cities without big problems of one kind or another, Northam said Some social scientists say “ a rural renaissance” is underway in America and Canada now . he added “ The 1980 federal census w ill provide some fascinating data, no doubt, on shifts in population is this country.” But Oregon is probably pretty typical of what’s going on and cities are growing at a rate well above the state average. Northam said. The cover of the second printing of the book carries an income map of Portland It shows how average annual incomes of families and in dividuals vary from area to area, but tend to be lowest in inner-city neighborhoods The 500-page textbook is now used for classes in about 80 U S and Canadian colleges and universities. Its chapters cover the city in history, urbanization trends, quality of urban life and the livab ility of cities, the labor force and economic base of the city, land use and zoning, social structure, commercial ac tiv itie s , tra n s p o rta tio n , urban sprawl, city crime problems, and urban policy, governments and prospects Northam s own life is a mix of country and city.

December through March are the months when cases of — and deaths from — pneumonia hit their peak Quite often, pneumonia follows on the footsteps of colds and ordinary respir atory infections When the body's defenses are down, pneumonia can have a heyday. When pneumonia, an in flammation of lung tissues, develops, the chances of prom pt recovery are greatest when the person is young, if the pneumonia is detected early; if there is no other illness present There are antibiotics that are effective against the most deadly ’ types of pneum onia, caused by bacteria And this winter, there was a vaccine to p re v e n t p ne um oco ccal pneumonia one of the most severe bacterial types. The vaccine was designed to prevent more than 80 percent of the cases of pneumococcal pneumonia The pneumonia season may peak in winter and early spring, but it lasts all year PRICE 35.S6 B60xl3 A 7 8 x l3 678 x 13 C 7 8 x l4 D 7 8 x l4 E 7 8 x l4 F 7 8 x l4 G 7 8 x l4 H 7 8 x l4 G 78x15 H 78x15 L 7 8 x l5 BLACKWALL WHITEWALL 19.98 23.51 24.32 20.95 22.28 25.75 26.02 22.51 27.81 24.12 29.10 25.22 26.02 29.93 32.16 28.03 30.83 26.76 32.59 28.27 35.29 AS LOW AS 390 E.
