By LUlle U Madsea Tarm Editor, The Statesman A general round-up Monday on results of the week-end storms on valley ianches revealed consider able variation In the intensity of the rain, hail and wind. In some areas the rainfall was comparatively light. In other ar eas, just a few miles away "the heaviest rain storm in many years" was reported. As a whole renorts indicated much more good than harm would result from the rain. j Berry growers, in particular, were happy at the downpour. Had the rain not come the berry sea son, especially on the valley floor, would have been very short. Ber ries were already failing to devel op properly and those offered were small. The rain was sufficient to give good growth to the many small green berries on the valley vines. Jn a few areas, the berries were reported badly beaten from the hall. Monday's berry harvest was definitely muddy. Rains Beneficial In the hill areas, where the lar gest harvests come from, the rains were definitely pronounced bene ficial. Picking, with the exception of a few scattered fields, had not yet begun. The entire crop,in the hills was expected to be much bet ter foe the ram. In the lower sec tions jf the hill country, particu larly ii the large strawberry area east and south of Silverton, pick ing started in some fields Monday, although many growers who had planned to start Monday postponed picking until Tuesday and Wed-1 nesday. In the higher areas pick ipg is; not expected to start until late in -the week. Cheirry growers in Polk county said the cherries were not far en ough along to be harmed, but pro bablyfwould develop much better for the rain. Close watch, how ever, Swill have to be kept to cov er cherries again with cherry fruit fly bait. A few orchards had been sprayed Just prior to the week end rain. These will have to be sprayed or dusted again. Damage Reported In the Bethany district to the west between Silverton and Mt. Angel, some damage was reported in grain fields and orchards. In one apple orchard leaves were said to be stripped from the tree and much of the young fruit knocked off. J Remaining fruit was badly brvused. Toward Brooks some grain growers reported the heads of oats broken off. Vetch and alfalfa fields not vt cut are flattened out. Many of the neias or gcass as well as clover, grown for seed are also laid low in j Polk and Marion counties. While a portion of this may rise again, a good share will remain down, making harvest more difficult But as a U'hnla hrmm ctlu) ...-v.., 4".MV!d OfcOVtA Monday, the rain was "a million dollar, event" adding, "if it just jaoesn i Keep ,up now and spoil the good it has i done." Continued rain could soon rot the . berries and spoil the grass and hay. Late seeded barley, and there was much of it this vear. was greatly benefited. Clover 1 planted in May, ang not sprouting because of lack of moisture in the soill will get off to a good start. The few hundred acres of flax planted in the valley this spring was greatly benefited. Flax growers felt the weather gods had been very much against tnem tnrouehout the nast three months. Continued earlv rain prevented working of the sons so xnat tne crop could not be seeded in time. The continued Hrv May prevented the flax from pro perly growing after the small acreage had been planted. Farm era reported inches added to the growth of late planted grains and flax, and that forage fields, such as clover and grasses, already har vested, were 4 taking on splendid new growth, a definite boone to dairy and other livestock produ Salem s first aid . crew had a busy day Monday, making eight runs to treat a variety or injuries! including removing a sliver from the hand of Chief of Police Clyde i A.

Dean Prosser The number of present day law students incapable of spelling common words and unable to place their thoughts on paper in an. understandable manner is in creasing, William L. Prosser, dean of law at the University of Cali fornia, told the Lawyers' Alumni association of Willamette univer sity here Sunday. Prosser said he didn't know where to plate the blame but commented that when a student with 16 years of preparation and an AB degree is so inadequately prepared there is something rad ically wrong with the current ed ucational methods. The speaker denounced the question and answer form of ex aminations now used in both secondary and high schools throughout the nation. He said this type of examination can be graded by an assistant janitor. Prosser also contended the question and answer examinations prevented the student from form ing and expressing his own thoughts. "It certainly is too mechanical for any good to the student," Prosser continued. "They also tell me they are teaching phonetic spelling." Prosser said he could well un derstand that because of the amazing number of law students who are unable to spell most common words. "I consider the English language, both spoken and written, the backbone of the law yers day by day work," Prosser averred. He said many lawyers are in adequately trained for the pro fession. District Judge Joe Felton pre sided and Introduced the speaker. Eight Chemeketans from Salem were in the party! of 12 who reached the summit of Mt.
