The Memorial week-end tour by the (hemeketaiis Plan Vigorous Summer Tours This is the time of year when members of the Salem Chemeke tans, local outdoor club, begin to Hex their mountain-climbing muscles in anticipation of a vigor ous summer Eeason. The Chemeketans, along with other public and private groups, are preparing for several outdoor week ends including hikes, pic nics, camping and mountain climbing. With a full winter schedule of outings and hiking behind them the club will start its summer schedule on July 4 week end with a climb of Mt. Shasta in Northern California. An ascent of Mt. Adams in Washington is 'slated for July 13 week end. Feature of the summer sched ule will be the annual two-week camp, to be held this year at Gla cier National Park, Montana. About 60 persons are expected to make the outing Aug. 2 to 17, Recording to George P. LaBorde, club hiking chairman. Then will come a Labor Day week-end hike completely around Mt. Hood at timberline level. This ho a Sfl-milp fhrpp.Hav trin JUount Washington will feel the ! club's crampons on the week end of September 14. j A recent mountain-climbing tragedy on Mount St. Helens, in which a young climber lost his . life, has prompted club members j to reiterate the safety precautions necessary in mountain-climbing. ; "Mountain-hiking can be com-; pletely safe and healthful when simple safety precautions are ob- : terved," said LaBorde. "Some of our club members are elderly and most of us are not expert climbers but we have never had an acci- State Bankers Choose Blohm As President Oregon bankers Tuesday chose Godfrey C. Blohm of Eugene as their state association president, advancing him from vice presi dent. The annual convention closed Tuesday afternoon following the election and addresses by the Am erican Bankers Association presi dent and an atomic scientist. Blohm is vice president of U. S. National Bank of Portland. Other new officers are Clifford C. Clark son, Portland, vice president; Dwight E. Gard, Portland, treas urer; and on the executive com mittee, Henry E. Shelton, Forest Grove, chairman, C. F.Adams of Portland, Joseph R. DeJardin of Taft, John B. Rogers of Baker and John L. Searcy of Hillsboro. Rog ers is retiring president. The association adopted resolu tions calling for a study of the proposal to make "well-managed" forest lands eligible for security loans. In recognition of timber as a crop, and asking for curtailment of government expenditures, since "the greatest single source of in flationary pressure is non-essential federal spending."

LaBorde said Chemeketans al ways observe these safety fea tures: A competent responsible leader on all trips; proper use of equipment and safety devices such as ropes and crampons; proper clothing, and adequate health safeguards such as skin protection and proper rest periods while hiking. ident from Roanoke, Va., said he has encountered much complacen cy and an attitude that "a benevo lent government will take care of them." He declared bankers have a duty to combat this situation by keeping banking strong to back private, competitive business, by serving the community in wise credit-granting, by sharing in community decisions to keep them voluntary rather than dictatorial, by continuing as a symbol of trust, by building for the future among youth. Cocke decried bankers who "ab rogate our traditional function of risk-taking" by relying upon gov ernment guaranties of loans, whose expansion he outlined. He urged "every effort to extend cre dit wherever ' possible without re lying upon the government guar anty." In discussing the industrial ap plications of atomic energy, Dr. Lester E. Reukema of University of California declared this new field will give backward peoples of the future a chance at a stan dard of living surpassing what Americans have now. Abundant Energy This energy is one of the oldest and most abundant things in the university, said Reukema as he de scribed its radiation as heat, light and ultra-violet rays from the sun and other stars, through genera tion of material into energy. The energy potential of one gram or one-half teaspoonful of matter is equal-, to 900 billions of billions of ergs (a unit of work) or 25 million kilowatt hours or 33 million horsepower hours, said the scientist. In comparison, he point ed out that production of one mil lion kilowatts would require 1,500 tons of coal per day for a steam plant or one pound of atomic fuel in plutonium about the size of a walnut.

Wkiie tide-telt tire e eitxe coeC To many owners, the mighty 180 H.P. V-8 engine that powers the Chrysler New Yorker is the most remarkable feature of this remarkable car. It is cer tainly the most discussed automobile engine in many, many years. This is the engine with hemispherical combustion chambers ... the engine that gets more power out of every drop of gas. And non-premium gas at that! Actually, It puts you in control of more power than you'll probably ever need use. You'll sense this . . . together with its unequaled response . . . the very first yards you drive. It runs smoother, more quietly, and with less wear than any other engine ever built into an American automobile. . . . and it makes driving (both cruising and the short runs) mor fun than you have ever known it to be! But that's not all. Along with this engine there are scores of other reasons, too, for driving a New Yorker before resolving on any new car. Like Full-time Power Steering tha makes steering fir timet easier . . . and your control fit time greater . . . than ia ordinary cars. Like Power Brakes that cut needed pedal pressure by as much as two-thirds. Like Onflow shock absorbers that make even bad roads feel "newly paved" . . . restful chair-high seats . . . big, wide opening doors . . . big windows that let you tee more. It's true . . . until you drive a Chrysler New Yorker you won't know what you're missing. Why not stop in today? CHRYSLER THE FINEST CAR AMERICA HAS YET PRODUCED SALEM AUTOMOBILE C0.f INC. 435 N.
