New School: New Belfry For Old Bell By FLORENCE MATTHES LAKE L A B I S H The Old Bell of Lake Labish has seen 42 years of service. It called many whe are now on the Golden Shore! Many who listened to its deep harmonious tone are now in the four quarters and the Seven Seas. When Prof. W. F. Rogers taught here 40 years ago it was installed. It could be heard to Brooks, to Clear Lake, to Hayes ville. That was because the Old Stage Road with its wagon and pedestrians was not as noisy (or as efficient) as the present mile-a-minute traffic! The Grand Old Bell was tak en this week to Labish Village where it will be installed at the church and will continue to mark time for one of the finest neighborhoods in Oregon!

KUENZI BUYS BULL Statesman News Service SILVERTON Edward G. Kuenzi, Silverton, has purchased a young Guernsey sire. Lamina Farm Bang, from August J. Minke Jr., Mt Angel. This young bull is out of the well-bred cow Cla-ore Monopoly's Lass, that was once classified Very Good for Type, and has a production record of 10,000 pounds of milk and 513 pounds of butterfat, made as a junior two-year-old, in the Herd Im provement Register.

Her master has gone off to the Boy Scout Na tional Jamboree in California and until he returns it looks as if Al legretta is being faithful in her fashion. Her faithfulness entirely . suits her breed for Allegretta is a black German shepherd dog whose en tire two-year life has been wrapped up in her master, 16-year-old Ed Rauss. Her sadness befits her name for it was taken from the musical term Allegretto which is not brisk as allegro, but sad and sweet and gentle. Left on Train The dog's rejection of any in terest in life began last July 9 when Mr. and Mrs. Edward F. Rauss. loaded their son, Ed Jr., and all his gear and Allegretta into the family station wagon to take Eddie to the train for his journey to California. When the Rausses returned, Gretta leaped from the station wagon and ran wildly through the house, sniffing and whining. Final ly she gave up her search and then refused to leave the house or eat. In Station Wagon Two days later, Mrs. Rauss set off on an errand in the station wagon and when she returned Al legretta climbed into the vehicle and refused to leave it Since that day the dog has refused to quit the station wagon and has nibbled only half-heartedly at two dog bis cuits. A veterinarian prescribed forced feeding and vitamin pills but Al legretta is losing weight steadily. Eddie: who heard of his pet's seige of melanchony slipped away from the activities at Jamboree' City long enough to telephone Sun day night to ask if he should hurry home. Urged to Stay His mother said: "It's up to you son, but I think it's all right if you stay." Later she said: "We're hoping to keep Allegretta alive with the. doctor's prescription until Eddie comes home we hope by July 30." At the jamboree, Eddie re marked: "She did the same thing last year when I took a trip to Michi gan for a month, but was as good as new when I got back. "I miss Allegretta, but I know my folks are taking the best care of her. She'll be okay when 1 get home. if - Eddie said he is j having "the time of my life at the Boy Scout conclave. Hells on Irrigation X O t . y Plan Attacked V By JOHN KAMPS WASHINGTON UP) Idaho Pow r Co. Monday sought to show that he proposed federal Hells Canyon Jam would prevent future irriga tion development and operate in rrz i . . -n eujcieouj in une rxorcnwesi rower PooL Mark Kulp, Idaho state reclama tion engineer, testified at a power commission hearing on Idaho Pow er a applications to buud three dams in the Snake River, that up stream irrigation rights have pri ority m state permits granted for the projects. I He declared however, the pro posed 400 million dollar, federal dam near one of the power company's sites along the Idaho Oregon border would impound water needed for future irrigation. ! Kulp said Idaho has more than 2 million acres of land under Irrigation, most of it along the Snake River, and the total should eventually be doubled. The pro posed federal project, he declared, does not make allowance for stream depletion' for normal in creases in reclamation. Acreage to Increase Kulp predicted the number of acres put under water along the Snake River in Idaho will increase about 30.000 annually during the next 30 or 40 years. His testimony was substantiated by Harry M. Dewey, Twin Falls, Idaho, engineer, who testified as o results of a survey he made or Idaho Power in the past nine months on the irrigation potential of the Snake Valley above the Hells Canyon Dam site. Dewey said information for his survey was obtained from Idaho Power Co., Utah Power and Light Co., Army Engineers and the fed eral Reclamation Bureau. He is a former employe of the Army Engineers in the Reclamation Bu reau. During 70 Tears Dewey traced the development of irrigation in Idaho during the past 70 years. He said acreage tinder water increased from 200. 000 in 1880 to more than 2,800,000 in 1950. Lester Cowgill of Portland, Ore.. coordinating engineer for the Northwest Power Poo!, testified that some large reservoirs do not operate at capacity in the, produc tion of power because they are 'hard to fill." He said he was not familiar with he federal Hells Canyon proposal. but that Hungry Horse and Canyon Ferry reservoirs in Montana are examples of projects in the "hard- to-fin" category. Hungry Horse dam is in the Flat head River and Canyon Ferry is in the Missouri. Reservoir Not Filled Cowgill said there hasn't been enough water in the Flathead to fill Hungry Horse reservoir during any year in the past 22 years. Addition of more hard-to-fill Reservoirs in the Pacific North west would increase the margin f error made in trying to regu- WITH . . . SCREENED FOR PERFECT REPRODUCTION IN 65-85-120 LINE mm? . .

About $200,000 already has been spent on the 447-acre tract to in stall a water system and a dairy with several barns. Dr. Andrew Nelson, told the Adventists' an nual camp meeting here. Nelson, who is president of the Philippine Union College, said the church has $344,000 to begin con struction this fall of two dormi tories and other buildings. Each dormitory will accommodate 150 students, he said. The academy is to be a pre paratory boarding school for stu dents through the 9th to 12th grades, h said. late reservoirs operated in the power pool, Cowgill said. He explained that such reser voirs cannot be emptied, but must be kept at high level for use in critical periods since river flow isn't adequate to fill them. Idaho Power contends the vast 90-mile-long Hells Canyon reser voir, which would contain four mil lion acre feet, could not possibly be filled annually and at the same time satisfy upstream irrigation needs. Cowgill said the Northwest PoW' er Pool considers all power, fa cilities. federal and private, in set ting up operation patterns in ad vance.

UNDERWATER TELEPHONE GALLS TAKE Long distance calls between Seattle and Vancouver Island, in Canada, are now traveling by air . . .beamed on microwaves from one radio-relay tower to another much as a search light's rays are directed. These calls were formerly carried through submarine cables on the floor of the 900-foot-deep Haro Strait. But, because of extreme tidal action, the Haro Strait telephone cable had to be replaced every three or four years. Now, the new radio-relay system will do the same communications job at less cost. ' Vf"y Kite. 1 V((VVivr 1. Catalina Island, too, is being served by microwave radio. This link crosses the twenty-five-mile ocean channel between the Island and southern California mainland, sup plementing service provided by underwater cable. This has increased the number of telephone circuits available to meet growing needs and saves installing additional cables. Pacific Telephone : - ' - i , YoungTlitier& : y-'.-H' , -t. .
