Hoover Talks To
Local Voters Here
At Wed. Luncheon
Dave Hoover, o f Clackamas
county, the dynamic dairyman
out to unseat Wayne Morse as
United States senator, was a
visitor in Brookings Wednesday,
and at noon, met with a group
for luncheon at Vincent's Res
taurant.
Through h i s scathing adver
tisements appearing in many of
the Oregon newspapers, Hoover
attacks the labor leaders and a
number of Oregon politicians,
who can “go along” with Morse
in defense of his voting in the
1 current session of congress.
Hoover points to his record—
f being born on a farm in In
diana, of his education, his serv-
in world war 1, and of his re
cent return to the farm.

Azalea State Park, which gives
reason for observance of annual
Azalea Festivals, is a park with
quite a tradition, with quite a
history. So good is this history
State of Oregon t avel informa
tion bureau of the state highway
department has used this or a
similar picture in scores of ad-
tisements placed i n nationally-
circulated magazines.
Consisting of 25 acres, and lo-1
cated on a “bench” overlooking
the Chetco River, in the north- |
east section of this area, Azalea
State park has a uniqueness that i
draws people again and again.
Azaleas do not grow' in many
places in the United States in ,
“the wild.” Only in eastern Ten-
nessee and in Curry county are
azaleas found in any profusion

In a scrapbook, being kept by ,
Mrs. W. L. Crissey, one can be|
convinced of the popularity of j
this park, which the residents of
this area almost ignore, almost
ridicule, and seldom visit.
Azaleas are peculiar in many
ways. I tost noticeable of their
many pecularities, is the wide
range of colors. Some are al
most a pure white, and others
are almost deep crimson.
A visitor at the park, especially
early in the morning if little or |
no wind is blowing, will note
the pungent, bitter-sweet aroma'
or fragrance. The nearest de
scription one can give of the
fragrance is that it smells akin
to the pit from a peach seeds
The first Azalea Festival was
held in 1939, and until 1911, to1
be discontinued during the war,
to be resumed in 1946. 1 hese
festivals have, each year, be
come better known over *he en
tire United States. This has been j
attested by the number of out-1
of-state cars present at the re
cent festivals. Cars from .he far
away New England states, from
Florida, and scores from the mid-;
west, have been seen at these
functions
As much a part of the festival
as a pocket is to trousers, is the
barbecue luncheon at noon. The
flower display is another portion i
that has been magnetic in its
appeal. Each year, new ideas are
injected into the entertainment
feature. Since 1946 a queen and
her court have been named to
reign over this realm of azaleas
so beautiful, and so extra-or-
dinary.
This y e a r. under All-Year
Events Association, there will be
more native dress for the occa
sion—the Smith River Indians
will be present with a display of;
basket-weaving, fast becoming a ।
forgotten art. There will be no
competitive flower show, but ini
its place will be a huge display .
of floriculture to show the va
riety and range seen in this area.
.There will be pictures, pictures
of landscapes as seen through the
eyes of artists who are capable
of interpreting these into colors
on canvas. Two noted artists are
showing at the show this year. |
Next week a program of the
events will be published in these
columns, better to acquaint the
visitors of the fun and amaze-
I ment they will have here.
