The Statesman Judges in The Statesman's Photo contest thought they had enough headaches with the 500 pictures in weekly competition. But they dmit now that they didn't know what headaches were until It came to choosing the four grand prizes. There were 16 pictures in the running-r-the first-place winners in the four classifications of the four-week contest in which $272.50 in prizes is being distributed by The Statesman and it took three days of wrangling before any de cisions could be reached -on the top four published on this page today. The competition was exception ally keen in the pictorial-scenery class in which a photo of Crater Lake by Harry L. McBurnett of 187 W. Miller st., Salem, was barely edged out by the winning photo of Camp Pioneer by Gard ner Knapp. Competition Keea Next closest race was In the portrait-character study category, where top honors went to Ted Stook of 275 Fisher rd., Salem, In the children-animal class, a photo by Mrs. Evelyn Jordan won comparatively handily. And in the news-sports classification. Dr. Henry Morris' picture of the Cherry land Festival parade finally won over a good tuna-fish picture Submitted by G. G. Mackay. There were - votes for nearly very one of the 16 top pictures, n fact, when they finally had finished their Job, the judges felt impelled to jot down this state ment: "In submitting our choices, we'd like to say just this: "On only one of the four pic tures chosen was their complete agreement in the first considera tion. Decisions on the others were reached only after the most ex haustive debate. Some finally were eliminated on the basis that the photographer had not made the most of the subject at hand; others because printing had not quite done justice to what ap- Earently were good negatives, and ne or two because composition was not quite tops. "MERIT TO EVERT ONE "But there was considerable merit to every one of the - It photos before us, and we realize that our decisions as In all such eases as this are open to ques tion. .AH we can say is we've made an honest choice and we are Clad to have noted that as the contest progressed the general quality of pictures entered in all categories appeared to improve.'

HI r I ' 1 " ? : J Some 450 girls from the Wil lamette Area, Camp Fire Girls and Bluebirds, plus a staff of 23 have just completed six weeks outdoor life at Camp Kilowan. The days were filled with sports. handicraft, drama and nature stu dy. Each week, one day was spent in hiking, a penny hike to hunt er's cabin or an overnight camp ing trip. Evenings included blazing camp fire at the council fire ring, pro grams, Indian pow-wows. scav enger hunts, progressive dinners, folk games, and roasting marsh mallows. The big event was the banquet each session when the girls chose a special name, used it as the theme of the banquet. Each session had its own adven tures for both camper and coun selor as you can see by the ses sion names. "Polk-a-dot" was in spired by the ties worn by the counselors, the polk-a-dot signs painted to show the way to the camp, and the life boat with Its pretty polk-a-dot oars and seats.
