S3 00 S3 JO A BOUQUET LS IN ORDER Hundreds of people toured their new Coos-Curry Electrical Co op building Saturday--and almost to a man they said "Now h e r e is a welcome addition to Brookings". We echo that sentiment and go even further. We think that the new Coos-Curry building is representative of our entire fast growing community. It is bright new, and colorful, and allows plenty of room for the expansion which is sure to come. We walked through the colorfully decorated rooms, and in to the well equipped shop and were happy that the Coos-Curry is a part of our town. We think that Roy Weideman, and his sub-con tracto rs did a fine job on the new structure and should be v e r y proud, indeed, of the building. Our congratulations go out to all those that helped make the building possible. ***************** FALL SEASON COMES HERE EARLY................ Two significant reminders that the fall season is already with us took place this weekend. F irst we all saw the football g a m e Saturday, and there Is nothing like a football game, complete with yell leaders and rock anil sock playing to make a person feel like the summer is nearing the end. Then Monday we saw Delmar Blair with a 22 pound Salmon he had hit in the Chetco, and a few minutes later we heard that Bob Pommarane hooked an 18 pound fish fishing from shore near the mouth. We figure that this is the first of the salmon run for the season—and again fall must be here or rapidly advancing. Here on the Western shore we don't have some of the more colorful indications that they do back in the Midwest--but then they don t have a fall salmon run either. The loss of the opening football game to St. B ernard's was a sham e—because even our predjuldiced eye could see that o u r ■quad was superior. Inexperience and lack of adequate practice sessions hurt--but we feel that it will be a different story 1 ate r in the season. We wish the coaching staff the best of luck in their next en counters, and we'll be on hand to cheer them to the victories we know thev'll earn. RUGS BUNNY bv Warner Bros. KENNY TREATMENT HAS RESTORED THOUSANDS O f POLIO PATIENTS TO N O R M A L. HELP THE SISTER KENNY FOUNDATION TO A ID M O R E . LET'S AIL GIVE/ Libel suits against the maga zine Confidential in the neighbor ing state of California in recent weeks have been given the usual sensational p la y in the daily p ress. Those who thrive on the sins of others have had weeks in which to drool over the slimy revelations made against movie sta rs. While many of us must feel s o m e pity for the Hollywood celebrities who have thus had their private escapades g iv e n such publicity, we should at the same time be aware that this is the penalty one must pay forbeirq in the public eye. E v e ry o n e knows that while the normal in dividual may be fairly safe when he dissipates, the movie sta r is always fair game for scandal- I mongers. Back rows in movie h o u s e s have long been considered th e ¡popular field for cuddling, b u t when Maureen O'Hara is caught ¡doing it, the act becomes the .sub ject for such filth peddling publi cations as Confidential. The only difference between such publicat- ions and the foul-mouthed gossip I who peddles her venom across the back fence is that the former | serves a larger group and for pay The sad result of suchpublicity as that coming out of the Confi dential t r i a l is that too many people will accept the goings-on of a few crackpot actors and act resses as being typical of the en tire profession. The same line of reasoning is followed by those who insist that all union leaders are corrupt because one such leader was proved to be so, or those who hold all youngsters as being reck less drivers because a few are guilty of the charge. However, case6 such as that concerning Confidential do some time cause us to wonder as to just how tar the freedom of the p ress should go. If the peddling of drugs is considered a federal offense, certainly the poisoning of the mind and the weakening of the nation's morals th r o u g h the printed word should be looked upon as equally great a crim e. Certainly, economics should not be accepted as an excuse. To insist, as Confidential and others of it ilk do, that since the maga zine sells that in itself is proof that the people want it, and that it» therefore, must be good, is fallacious reasoning at its worst. People don't necessarily buy what they want; rather it is suspected by many that they buy what th e y are sold. ************* P IP E D R E A M S JOE MURPHY ALONG THE SIDELINE.. . . Ron Bullock was one of the s t a n d outs in the Brookings defensive line, besides making some nice catches. His tackles were sharp, and he was all over the field a n d ... .it was his first game of football. Last year he hadn't gone out for the squad. ********U********** Ron McCabe the plunging, driving type of fullback, has le g s pumping like pistons when he runs. McCabe was hard to bring down in the game, and made most of the ground gains, alth o u g h Je rry Fox and a couple of the other boys helped. ******************** The first bad break came after the Brooks opening drive, when they just started to move. After reaching within easy striking distance, a costly fumble lost them the ball. St. Bernards man aged to score on a play after the Brooks were momentarily con fused by what looked like a penalty. However, Coach MacFarlane and the boys weren't making excuses, so I'm not going to do it for them. There's another game Saturday. LETTER TO THE EDITOR...

It looks like in a few years, though, it won't be much use for cattle pasture.
