shells, while the firshermen may
catch perch from lines thrown
out from the shore. Lazy seals
may swim along the shore, not
minding people at all
Fishing 'Good'
Toward the south one will find
a delightful path which leads
several miles to the tip of Cape
Lookout where fishing is report
etly good. The wide trail through
abundant vegetation is inviting.
Those who stay overnight will
find Cape Lookout's facilities
very modern. The campgrounds
consist of 22 campsites eight
trailer sites; ako a building con
taining showers, toilets, and a
laundry with wash tubs and hot
and cold running water, even an
ironing board and electric out
let Facilities Told
Each campsite has a parking

A garbage can between each
two campsites is emptied daily
and relined with newspapers by
the camp staff. The woodpiles
are kept filled with small chunks
of dry wood.
There is a charge for staying
at the campgrounds of $1 per
night for cars and SI. 25 for cars
rwith trailers. One may stay for
a week.
Campsites Protected
The overnight campsites are
protected from wind by a low
hill or crest along the top of the
spit which extends north of the
picnic grounds. This spit has
some colorful natural vegeta
tion and has been assisted by the
planting of 4,000,000 plants,
vetch and others, to help hold
the sand in place. The gay purple
flowers of the vetch in bloom are
pleasant to see.
At Netarts, seven miles from
Cape Lookout State Park, one
may dig dark blue horse clams
by waiting for low tide and walk
ing to the edge of the water line
and digging with long, narrow
clam shovels into the rocky
beach.
Another short side trip is to
Oceanside a few miles north of
Netarts. There one will find
agates along the shore and a
fascinating tunnel through a
cliff.
Search For Floats
Others may wish to do some
beachcombing in search of the
Japanese floats that break loose
from fishing nets, follow the Jap
anese current and wash up on
the Oregon coast
Those who fancy a late sum

find Cape Lokout State Park a

flowers "at their best" and deer
in abundance.
The quartet drove to Breiten
bush Lake last Sunday, then to
Santiam Lodge at the summit of
the North Santiam pass, leaving
the car and taking the trail from
there. They carried their camping
equipment and spent the first night
at Santiam Lake.
Monday night they made camp
at John Lake, slightly off the beat
en path, where they saw numer
ous deer, comparatively tame dur
ing the closed season. Marion Lake
was visited before going over Big
ham ridge to Pamela lake where
Wednesday and Thursday were j
spent fishing, swimming and rest
ing before the homeward journey.
Quite a bit of snow was encoun
tered, the Middlemi.ses said, in
crossing the permanent ice fields
on the way out.
Now, Mr. and Mrs. Harry Car
son Jr., are spendng a week hik
ing along the Skyline Trail. The
Carsons took one pack horse to
carry their camping equipment
and planned -to hike, fishing at

Sprinkling
Ban Lifted
At Monmouth
Statesman News Service
MONMOUTH Sprinkling re
strictions which were invoked here
for three days have been lifted. A
temporary water shortage caused
the ban on irrigating.
There is no shortage in source
water, Mayor Howard Morlan an
nounced but the mam water line
is unable to carry a.s much water
as the city requires. The new pres
sure pumps keep 10 to 20 pounds
more pressure in the main pipe
line than previously, so that more
water is being carried than be
fore. More than 400 gallons per
minute are delivered into the res
ervoir, 24 hours a-day.
It is expected that continued dry
weather will further deplete the
supply, a situation which occurs
annually. '
