And why? Didn't the voters know' about Wallace’s decision not to campaign? Holmes is, from what we hear, a good man, but it must be something of a shock to almost run se cond in a one man race. We think that a good number of voters didn t know that Wallace was not an active office seeker—and his name was familiar to most voters after running twice prev iously. The Wayne Morse—Woody Smith Democratic race ran about as expected. Smith picked up a good number of pro test votes, but on the other hand per haps votes for Elmer Deetz and Hitch cock were protest votes on Doug Mc Kay. We’ll know for sure in November. At any rate, as expected, the Morse- McKay battle in November looms as a terrific spectacle for the interested by stander. Brick-bat tossing should be the order of the day from now on out. Tire primary election is over, and on ly the shouting and the planning for the November battle remain- Locally, we are happy to see the voters turn out in such numbers to give Mayor Rov Brimm the backing he deserved to win the important Republican nomination for county commissioner—which will insure a Brookings man in the county seat next fall. We were elated too, over the success of Sam Hall in the representative race against Minnie King, despite his oppos ition from the Coos Bay newspaper. We are confident that Hall will do a good job in Salem next winter. Our congratu lations to the winners. On a state-wide level the results are a bit more perplexing. Frankly we can t figure the Democratic voters in the bal lot battle for Governor. Lew Wallace wthdrew from the race some weeks ago, and that act was printed in every news paper in the state. Yet, the race between ? Planned at Florence j concert program and there Will be a carnival operating on the junior high grounds. On Sunday, May 27, visitors are invited to attend the church of their choiae. In the afternoon will be the Grand Parade which the public is invited to follow to the Chowder Grounds where free clam chowder will be ladled from a huge container having a capa city of several hundred gallons. Plans are being made at the tirport to accomodate at least 100 planes with the local CAP hosting the flying guests. During the Sunday activities several of the top high school bands of Western Oregon will provide entertainment, taking It isn’t a large sum of money, but we do want to feel that we have done our part in a cause mat can only be classed as worthy. We wrote out this check be cause wc felt tins way about the situa tion. We figure that the next best thing to actually being a Boy Scout—is to help some youngster enjoy those activities.

We feel that scouting is now on the rise in Brookings and I larbor, be cause of the spirited leadership, anti we want to help it to move ahead. We know that scouting costs money—for example the advisory cost in eamp is about $io.oo per member per yea/. We know that a goal of $2830 has been set for this area—and we want to do our part to hit that goal. We figure that with 154 boys locally in the Cub Scouts of the Boy Scouts that they are going to need money to operate. We know that this is just a once a year campaign and we aren’t to be nicked every time we turn around. So, we gladly anti willingly signed a check, and we hope and assume that von will too. Wc at the Pilot signed a check this morning. It was made out to the Boy Scouts of America—and it was placed in our cash register drawer to await the coming of the current Boy Scout cam paign member who picks up our card.
