Income in Oregon's tourist in dustry for 1953 was 3 per cent greater than that of the previous year, the State Highway Depart ment estimated Friday after surveys by interviewers who queried outbound visitors at 16 sections of the state. visitors spent a little more money per day on an average than in 1952, and the average length of stay was slightly longer which offset the fact that fewer cars visited the state. Figures based on the number of out-of-state cars interviewed durinff the survey show that some 997,000 foreign-licensed cart car rying vacationists visited Oregon during the 1953 tourist season, as compared to 1.005,000 in 1952. Oregon's visitors spent an estimated $125,000,000 during the year as comoared to the previous record of X121.000.000 in both 1951 and 1952. A comparison of 1952-53 tour ist fieures shows that the average vacationer stayed in the state 6.5 days this year as compared to 6.3 lart year. He soent an aver age of S5.35 a day in 1953. $5.07 in 1952. The average occupancy for each car was 3.06 persons who spent $107.85 durin their stay in the state in 1953, as compared to $95.98 last year. Motorists who stayed in camp grounds, as well as those who patronized hotels, auto courts, and resorts, were interviewed to provide a thorough cross section of Oregon vacation travel The Travel Information Divi sion published and distributed over 400.000 promotional book lets, folders, and maps during tne 1933 season. In addition, over 300,000 promotional folders of chambers of commerce and regional organizations were dis tributed by the division. Its na tional advertising campaign in newspapers and magazines een- erated 96,000,000 printed invita tions to visit Oregon's vacation lands.

The cigarette set off a sawdust pile beneath a table saw in the yard of the new county court house but caused no damage. A neglected roast at 2313 Hyde St filled the house with grease laden smoke about 3:45 p.m. and coated walls and ceilings, firemen reported. Smoke ejectors cleared the dwelling. Trash in a lot in the 500 block of Mill Street touched off a small grass fire which waa quickly ex tinguished. Firemen were called at 12:40 p.m. Woman's Club Votes $300 To Parsonage Salem Woman's Club came to the aid of Salem's "Save the Par sonage" effort Friday. The women at a general meet ing voted to contribute $300 to ward the expense of moving and restoring the landmark Parson age building, now at 13th and Ferry Streets where Salem School Board is clearing ground for a new administration build ing. Believed to be Salem's second oldest building, the two-story frame structure was built in 1841 to house the pioneer Methodist missionaries in this area. It was built about the same time as the Jason Lee house which also still stands. The Woman's Club financial aid added to a $500 donation of Dr Burt Brown Barker provides funds enough or moving the building within a few days, an nounced Murray Wade, historical sites . chairman for the Marion County Historical Society which has been planning to convert the old house into a museum. Salem School Board, which do nated the building to the society. is offering temporary use of property adjacent to Washington School on Lansing Avenue for the Parsonage. Wade told the board this week that plans were underway to seek legislative per mission for putting the building at the State Fairgrounds. Also under consideration. Wade said Friday, is an offer from Paul Hendricks of a South Com mercial Street lot as site for the building. This would be in the 1900 block. The historical society already has several of the original win dows, which are very small after the style of the period. Other wise, the Parsonage is just about as built except for two interior partitions and an added troom. which will be discarded, said Wade. Panther HunV Fails to Lift Hazing Plans GARDEN CITY. N. Y. Of) Pity again the poor college freshman as usual, he never had a chance. Adelphi College sophomores drew up a rule this year, that any fresh man bringing a live panther onto the campus would be exempt from the traditional hazing. The sophomores little reckoned with the craftiness of John Dodd of Merrick. N. Y. Dodd took out a newspaper ad making known his need for a pan ther. Game hunter and author Bill Longnecker of nearby Rockville Centre promptly offered to supply two of an African species. Thursday. Adelphia's new crop of freshmen latched onto a long rope tied to the panthers' cage and hauled the beasts onto the campus -thus qualifying for the hazing ex emption. But their gratification was short lived. After a parley the sopho mores ruled that the freshmen couldn't be exempt, except for one lucky lad chosen by lot. The sophomore reasoning: Hazing freshmen is a tradition, and fresh men need it GUMMING THE WORKS EAST HARTFORD, Conn: IB A teenager threw a wad of gum at the side of Cliffard Benson's automobile, halted at an inter section for a red light The im pact startled Benson, and his foot slipped off the clutch.
