Three-Fingered Jack Area Is Favored (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1) drawback at present to the Three fingered Jack site. First of all It is a long distance away. At the present writing the only way to reach the area is by way of balem and the North Santiom highway a distance of 160 miles. Forest service officials, however, believe the day Is not far off when the Clear Lake road will be kept open to traffic all winter. This would make the Three Fingered - Jack area but 88 miles from Eu gene a matter of but five miles farther than the sand hills atop the McKenzie pass. Objection Voiced The second objection voiced by the Eugene representatives was that Eugene wants a winter sports playground of Its own. Whether or not this will ever be possible Is question mark at the present time In view of the extreme difficulty In keeping a road open to the McKenzie summit area the site favored by Eugeneans. Neutral observers who accom panied the survey expedition on lta five-day trip, however, were Inclined to favor the Three Fin gered Jack area over any place seen in the McKenzie region. This writer believes the McKenzie area has nothing to compare with the Three Fingered Jack site without the expenditure of hundreds of thousands of dollnrs. Reasons for this belief are as follows: J. The only really good skiing area on the McKenzie lies high up on the slopes of the Three Sisters region penetrated only by trails at the present time. The expendi ture of about $5,000 for a 3V4 mlle road over fairly level ground will open up five square miles of wonderful slopes south of Three Fingered Jack, with the possibility of a six mile ski trail thrown In. Highways Better 2. The Santiam highways both north and south will become allr year routea within the next two years affording easy access to the highest mountain regions. The McKenzie Is acknowledged as a summer route only. 8. The Three Fingered Jack area la relatively free from timber. Areas atop the McKenzie at the aame elevation are thickly forest edwith few hills of any account whatsoever. 4. The Three Fingered Jack site has slopes for every type and de gree of skier. At best, the present accessible possibilities In the Mc Kenzie region afford only medi ocre sport for the expert skier. The forest service expedition Inspected three major areas In the Santiam region. Making the trip Into the Fish Lake ranger station last Sunday by meBns of the Ski Laufers snow-moblle, the party made a reconaissance trip Monday tnrougnoui uie country nearby. Tuesday a trip was made to Tombstone Prairie and iron Mountain, lying six miles west ei Fish Lake. The region was suitable for skiers of limited pro ficiency, and the survey party decided to look further. On Wednesday a trip was made to the Hogg pass area, where Hoodoo and Hayrick buttes were looked over. The country was very similar to the Three Finger ed Jack area, and lies by a mile or so south of the Santiam high way. This area will be Included with the Three Fingered Jack area. Thursday the trip up the slopes of "Jack" was made. The forest service expedition was under the direction of W. N. Parke, recreational director for the Willamette national forest. Those going from Eugene were Tony Vogel, representing the Ob sidians; Wallace Rowland, Guy Wright and Ed Thurston, repres enting the Ski Laufers; I. F. Davidson, builder of the snow mobile; and the writer. From Al bany came M. O. Wilkinson, president of the Santiam fish and game commission, and Floyd Mul lens, Linn county agent Salem was represented by Walter Bat liner, with Harry Miller repres enting Lebanon. Glenn Charleton, district ranger at Detroit, and R. C. Burgess, district ranger at Cas cadla, were other forest service officials along. Marvin Lee, of Springfield, was the expedition cook, with Leonard Heflln. Bel knap CCC lad, acting a. "bull" cook. Fine weather, with but a couple of exceptions, favored the sur vey during Its week of explora tion. The parly made headquar ters at the Fish Lake ranger sta tion. Short wave radio communi cation was maintained with the "outside" at all times. The trip out was made Friday, with everything going well until late afternoon when the snow mobile party making Its way down the Clear Lake road ran out of snow. The snow-moblle was parked and members of the group hiked down the road to a rendezvous with two forest service trucks sent to meet them. The snow-moblle was eventually driven over partially bare ground, and the expedition members were able to reach Eugene late Frldav night. Obituaries Mrs, Dora n.

A new candidate for the udg shlp was seen Saturday when D. T. Bayly, local attorney, an nounced he would seek the re publican nomination for county judge. He announced the guiding principles of his platform were "economy, efficiency and cour tesy." Following Is Bayly's statement: "I wish to submit my candi dacy for the republican nomina tion for Lane county judge. If nominated and elected my guiding principles would be economy, ef ficiency and courtesy. "Economy should be practiced in all county affairs but there should be no false economy. For instance, many of the roads of the county have been neglected and deserve a little more money. This leads to the question of taxes. It is recog nized that real property is now bearing too much of the tax load so strenuous efforts should be made to cut the taxes on real es tate and shift the burden else where. "Efficiency n the various de partments can be obtained only by eternal vigilance by a person with the proper qualities. I humbly of fer a university education in busi ness administration and several years of business experience plus full law school training and some, experience as a lawyer. Further, it Is submitted that the ze'al and vigor of a man of forty Is valu able. "Courteous impartiality from those with authority Is very desir able both to get cooperation and to give Justice."
