GOLD BEACH ACCEPTS ROTARY BID
WITH THIRTY MEN SIGNING CARDS
GOLD BEACH—This city will soon become Rotary’s newest, or
, baby club, when a charter is granted by Rotary International, to
the 30 men who signed up to establish a club at Curry County seat.
Sponsor club is Brookings, which, until recently had two distinc
tions: that of being the mostly westerly club in the United States
and the only one in an unincorporated town. Gold Beach takes
away the first distinction, Shady Cove robbed Brookings of the
other in 1848, when a club was chartered at that community be-
tween Medford and Crater Lake, in Josephine county.
Charter night, which is usually a “big” event for Rotarians,
will not be set until word has been received from the International
office at Chicago. When this information comes, Brookings club
will go into a “huddle” with Gold Beach concerning plans. Brook
ings will furnish the program for charter night.

will shortly go on a recess basis.
It is now pretty well determined
that no new legislation other
than what may be necessary to
deal with strictly emergency and
thus far unforeseen problems
will be considered. Members who

everything requested by the
president as the result of the
war situation will have b’e e n
been acted upon by Sept. 2. As
of now, it has been determined
that Congress will not formally
adjourn until very late in the
year. It will merely jog along
on a recess basis, which means
that all members can be called
into session on 24-hour notice.
