Willamette Prof Discusses Teen Agers at Club Adolescents of today are prod ucts of today's culture, Dr. Law rence Riggs, professor of educa- tion at Willamette university, maintained as he addressed the Hollywood Lions club at its Wed nesday noon meeting.

Need ed and renponsive to calls from industry during the war, many are now being pushed into the background,' he pointed out.

Gurske Blames Carelessness For 500 Lives Caution and thought might have saved 500 lives in Oregon last year, and surely would have saved 400, Paul Gurske, chairman of the slate industrial accident commission, told the Salem Lions club Thursday noon. There were 42,000 accidents re ported to his commission last year, a reduction of 14.000 from 1943's record. One hundred eigh teen fatal industrial accidents were recorded, with logging and log hauling heading the list, fol lowed by sawmilling. Shipbuild ing had 15 per cent less fatal ac cidents than the logging indus try, largely because of safety pre cautions, he declared. The commission paid out $5,328,200 for largely preventable accidents last year, he said, but industrialists did not lead in the number of preventable accidents. There were 345 fatalities among 4000 automobile accidents re ported, and $27,156 was paid out of the fund for care of indigents injured in such accidents. 'Gurske "told of lives lost in logging operations because the orders of the commission had been flouted, and of other loss of life because simple precautions were not followed. The Salem Lions club is spon soring an educational program for motorists and pedestrians, urging caution.
