(UP) of Portland have been ' named Drivers of the Year by Northwest Residents of this small community in the northwest corner of Grant' Greyhound Lines. Parish waited anxiously Wednes day for the "magic word" on whether they have a uranium strike on their hands. Mineral experts from Nevada, Texas and Louisiana descended on the Nantaches Creek area, took some rock samples and retired to the secrecy of their laboratories. The experts checked the 160-acre farm of Lucy Quinalty with Geiger counters and found the instrument went . "hog-wild" less than 100 yards from her house. So far, nobody knows for sure whether the area contains urani um or not "But the Geiger coun ters are jumping. .

(Statesman Photo) j On Columbia ASTORIA (UP) A 42-foot troll ing vessel owned and operated by a Portland couple was destroyed by fire Wednesday as it headed up the Columbia River five miles west of. nere. - . ,The vessel was the "Maria B.' It was beached by skipper George Karl and his 'wife, Mary Ann, im mediately after the fire broke out in the galley."- . The fire started at about 6:45 a.m. . The converted LCDP had lust cleared the Kkinannn Channel and was about 200 yards off the river bank. ; Equipment from the Port of As toria and the Coast Guard life boat station, were dispatched to the scene, but arrived too late to save the vessel. ; Mr. and Mrs. Karl were picked up from the beach by the 40-foot boat of the captain of the port. The Maria B was normally moored at Warrenton. It was rigged for commercial trolling. The 18 per cent of U.

Hayman's address was one of a score of more talks on medical subjects scheduled on the last day of .the . four-day CMA convention: Other activities slated 'for today included adoption of resolutions and election of officers. Hayman said the- one approach most favored by psychiatrists" for alcoholism is membership in Alco holics Anonymous.. -. .. "This was the most striking re-' suit of a recent survey of psy chiatrists conducted to determine their opinions on the problems of alcoholism," Hayman said. "Ninety-nine per cent of those polled approve of Alcoholics Anon ymous and 80 per cent have re ferred patients to their care," he said.
