I Perry, new cook at the jail, turns out two meals a day that are said to please even the most thorough critics of cell cuisine. ," Perry, "who has cooked at var ious west coast hotels, bakeries, restaurants and camps from Los Angeles to Alaska, will be able to turn out edible meals for the specified. 60 cents per man per day even with the rise in food costs, he opined Wednesday, That CO cents includes his own salary. A typical breakfast currently at the jail included oatmeal mush with milk and sugar, prunes, ovenized French fried potatoes, fried egg, coffee cake and coffee. The other meal Wednesday was composed of lamb curry with rice, brown potatoes, jello with peach ' es' and doughnuts, baked beans and black coffee. "We're feeding 'm so weU they'll want to come back," said one county official doubtfully, pointing out that des sert is a regular thing since Perry "evidently really likes to bake pies 'n things."

Control Board To Ask Space At Capitol The state board of control Wed nesday decided to ask the city council here to approve some plan under which motor vehicle park ing on the Court street side of the new state capitol building may be restricted. It was pointed out that many state employes park; their cars in front of the capitol during work ing hours with the result that persons desiring to transact busi ness with officials are compelled to park some distance away. Hour or two-hour parking was suggest ed as a remedy for the present unsatisfactory situation. How much territory in front of the capitol will be included In the restricted parking zone has not yet been considered.

Erickson, di rector of the Oregon state division of maternal and child health, an nounces.' Dr. Erickson said the action was taken because of the "high pro portion of young men examined under the selective service act who have been found to be physi cally unfit," to protect the health of children in the belief that this "is essential to the. present morale and future defense of our democ racy." ! , The program included: 1. Existing services for mater nal and child health should be maintained at the highest possible level of efficiency. 2. Additional services should be provided, particularly In military and industrial defense areas. 3. Each local health unit should provide as a minimum: Prenatal clinics, child ' health conference, medical examination of school children. 4.
