If the people ot the John Day coun

to the local board of Clackamas coun
ty, asking that Dr. Walker be given
deferred classification. The petition
sets forth th&i the good doctor tends
to the physical needs ot the John Day
community, covering a territory in bla

nearest doctor will be 70 miles to the
south, 35 miles to the north or to the
west, and 14 miles to the east The
prayer concludes with this statement:
'This is an important producing
country, both in agriculture and min
eral products, and is entitled to pro
