Croup Learns State's Supply Of Hardwood PORTLAND l - The Northwest Hardwood Assn. was told Satur day that Oregon has nine billion board' feet of hardwood of saw timber size. The report was made by F. L. Moravets. economist at the Forest Service's Pacific Northwest Forest nd Range Experiment Station. Northwest hardwood has a high Industrial potential, he said, but much of its value has been over looked because It is small in vol ume compared to softwood timber stands. ' He said red alder is the dom inant hardwood type in Oregon with 215,000 acres of atumpage, two-fifths of aawtimber aize This type already is finding substantial commercial use, he reported. . Besides alder he listed several t h e r merchantable hardwood types including big leaf maule. black cottonwood. oak, tanoak. Pa cific madrona, California laurel. Oregon ash, golden chinquapin nd quaking aspen. The group heard other speakers discuss the industry's technical problems and closed with adoption of grading rules for hardwood timber and lumber.

I - The city commission Saturday pro posed to end a six-week-old Negro boycott of city lines buses by as suring Negroes equal courtesy with white passengers and provid ing reserved seats for both races. However, the Rev. M. L. King, Negro minister leading the boycott forces, said he did not attend the meeting, and knows of no Negro ministers whp did. City commissioner Clyde Fellers said that Negro ministers were present at Saturday's session. However, he did not identify them. King said his group has not been contacted, and added that be does not believe the Negroes are ready to go back on the busses. The commission said under the proposal "definite policies" would be set up within the framework of Alabama's segregation law, Ne groes sitting from the rear of the bus, whites from the front. The first 10 seats would be reserved for whites and the last 10 for Ne groes. The commission said all parties present at a meeting of Negro ministers and city bus officials agreed to the proposal and the ministers were asked to bring it before their congregations Sunday. The commission said the propos al includes "courtesy on the part of bus operators shall be uniformly extended to all patrons of our city buses." One of the Negro com plaints was that drivers were dis courteous to Negro passengers. Negroes also asked for seata on a first come, first served basis. On a request for Negro bus driv ers In predominantly Negro dis tricts, the city commission said H had no authority to order the bus company to employ anyone regard less of race. Figures Out Of Sight in New Styles HOME Of Harem skirts, hints of bustles and plenty of leg visible through knee-high slits in tight skirts were eye-catchers In the Garnrtt and Simonetta fashion showings here Saturday. But Fabianl, style-designing hus band of Simonetta, put milady's figure completely out of sight. "The woman's figure will not only be covered up but It will completely disappear." Fabianl predicted as he announced his new spring-summer line In Rome i fashion openings. The usual outlines of the femi nine figure were completely lost in the loose-look ot Fabianl's new slack-waist styles. Attributing his ideas to nostalgia for the 1920 s, Fabiani de-emphasized the normal contours in a straight, unfitted line. Simple black cocktail dresses were relieved by unexpected droop-blouse backs. The low-or-no waistline was remi niscent of the unruly 20's, as were sleeveless dresses and plain round ed necklines. of Advanced Study st r.nnceton, N. J. Dr. Oppcnheimer was the center of a campus furore here last yar after the university administration decided against a proposal that the controversial scientist should lie invited for a campus appearance. Dr. Oppcnheimer is on the na tional advisory board for the con gress.

The regents accepted a $15,000 grant from the National Science Foundation, a government agency, for part of the session's expenses. Dr. Schmitz said the conference also will have financial support from other federal agencies. The tentative dates are Sept. 17 21. The university announcement de scribed it as "the most important gathering of the world's outstand ing theoretical physicists in recent years."

An Air Force spokesman ald this applies especially to the North American supersonic jet fighter, and the F100 Super Saber. He add ed that the situation is expected to improve somewhat because of training programs now underway. But with other supersonic fighters such as the Fiot, F102 and F104 coming along, the problem likely will remain a serious one for some time to come. NorbladHits Ban on Wood Cabinet Use WASHINGTON UP) An order banning, use of wood in building cabinets needed by the Air Force in Alaska is "a very .unfair dis crimination," Rep. Norblad (R Orel said Saturday. He made public a letter to the! Air Force protesting specifications which he said require that toe cabinets be made of steel. "The wooden type of cabinet will serve certainly just as well as the steel, and cabinet makers in my state are interested in being al lowed to bid openly and competi tively on these contracts, Nor blad said. "In my opinion, in ajl fairness they should have the right to do so." 'Most Handsome Male Over 100' Taken by Death CINCINNATI I - Maximilian von Stephany, 103, who once won a television progrun designation as "The Most Handsome Male over 100" died Saturday. Von Stephany won his "most handsome man" designation in 1953. His prize was a trip to Holly wood where he told Bob Thomas, Associated Press columnist, that his three great Interests were "girls, wine and cigarettes." M that time he was asked what impressed him most' about Holly wood and his reply was "the wom en and the wine." The kangaroo family has more than M members ranging from the foot-long musky-rat kangaroo to the 7-foot red and great greys.
