That's a question bciner discussed by Eugeneans over this mammoth walnut tree which hag existed through early Eugene history.

A previous owner, Stanley Stevenson, feared the heavy, per haps weary limbs, but opinion of neighbors spared the death war rant. Stevenson now lives at Vlda. (Wiltshire engraving). Steak Juggling Lady Proves Heroine of Democrat Show PHILADELPHIA (IP) This is about a raw steak, held aloft in the dainty hands of a lady wearing diamonds. The Democrats are feeling a lit tle stronger Tuesday because of this steak, plus some salty oratory and 28 minutes of strenuous exer cise in the steam room. Of course, they still lack a pres idential candidate who will be ac ceptable to all sections of the party. But they may have found the nominee for Vice-President, of whom more will be said here. First of all, the steak. Red Beef It was a real one, a medium sized sirloin, raw, red, limp and damp. It was introduced in evi dence, so to speak, by Mrs. India Edwards, chairman of the' women's division of the national committee. She was proving a point with it. Mrs. Edwards, handsome and fashionable in after-dinner black, brought a market bag with her Monday night whn she made her speech, blaming the Republicans for the high cost of food. The bag contained a quart of milk, a as a telephone company parking lot although it is zoned for resi dential use was discussed in con nection with Mrs. Newbury's re quest. The existence of the park ing lot, she said, seriously affect ed the value of her property as a residential site and was one rea son for her rezoning application. Noting that while the parking lot's legality was something of a moot question, members of the council decided that since no building had been erected on the telephone company property it was doubtful that any city regu lation could be invoked to force discontinuance of company park ing there.

The price of each was stated by the speaker. And if her object was to startle her hearers with the steak, she achieved it in full meas ure. They gasped, gulped, then laughed and cheered. Stage Effects It hung in her hand, oozing limply down between her fingers, and partly obscuring the diamond rings that glittered and twinkled the bright klieg lights. It! looked, somehow, like a red jelly fish stuck on a trindent encrusted with jewels. Mrs. Edwards told her audience how much she had paid for it. Then she put it down on the ros trum beside her. Because of the slant in the rostrum, the steak began to creep downhill until it was dripping partly .over the edge. Photogenlo She retrieved it, to the delight of the photographers who asked her to hold it up again "for just one more" Mrs. Edwards complied. Mrs. Edwards steak and the rolling periods of Senator Alben W. Barkley's keynote speech, de livered just before, put the Demo crats in a mood they have not known since the convention began. The senator is a square-set, bar rel-bodied man with white hair and a flinty, fighting face. He delivered a fighting speech, and it was just what the strife-torn Democrats wanted to hear. He was wearing whites. And as he thundered through 68 min utes of oratory, waving his arms and eating the air with his big fists, a great, brown patch of sweat began to stain the white coat. It spread downward, from the middle of his back to his hips. When he had finished, even his trousers were flecked with wet. Demonstration The crowd gave him an ovation. It was partly genuine, but in the opinion of this and other hearby observers, it was assisted, here and there, by a little assidu ous needling. Unquestionably, Senator Bark- ley had made an impression. The delegates poured out of their chairs into the aisles, spontaneously. The fact that they had been sit ting for two hours on hard wooden chairs, and that Senator Berkley had been rumored as a vice-presidential, possibility, and that the band was playing the thrilling blood-lifting songs of Dixie these things may have had something to do with it, too. Iraqi troops who had garrisoned Ros El Ain were reported to have put it to the torch in evident fear of being trapped by the Jewish forces fanning through the countryside. With the pumping station and its terminus of the Jerusalem pipeline back in Jewish hands, authorities hoped to be able to re store the water supply for the more than 100,000 Jews in the Holy City. In Jerusalem Itself, one of the fiercest artillery and mortar duels of the war was reported develop ing. The shelling began before dawn, an Amman dispatch reported. The sudden flareup of fighting in Jerusalem saw the Jews hurl ing scores of big new mortars into the old city which the Arabs seized before the truce. The Arab Legion replied with 25-pounders. Arab reports by way of Amman said the Arab position had im proved in the last 24 hours, with the Legion waging strong counter attacks in the Lydda area and re gaining some ground. The Arab league political corn- mittee was scheduled to meet at Amman Tuesday. Abdul Rahman Azzam Pasha, the secretary gen eral, conferred at length with King Abdullah. The league was believed to be getting set to an swer at once any United Nations Security Council proposals made at Lake Success. Hines Lumber Co. Wins Timber Sale Edward Hines Lumber Company was the only bidder on a stand of 2,500,000 board feet of salvage timber on the north fork of the Willamette River. The Willamette National Forest Service conducted an auction sale here Monday, selling the timber to the Hines company for one dollar a thousand. The forest service said the same firm 'had previously log ged the area.

Jaycees Thank Their Public The Eugene Junior Chamber of Commerce has adopted a resolu. tion expressing thanks to the peo ple of Eugene and to the city's businessmen for their cooperation in the recent "Clean up, Fix up" campaign. Jaycee President John Luvaas Tuesday reported that the resolu tion was passed at a meeting last week and included special com- mendation for City Manager Deane Seeger and Fire Chief E. L, Surfus. Surfus also figured in the eve ning's activities when he was re quested to attend and be sworn in as a member. Luvaas reported that the organiation was 'sur prised" later to find that the fire chief was over age. "We had to kick him out again, Luvaas said, "but then the Ex hausted Roosters (formally, the associated members of the junior chamber) called a special meeting and took him immediately in to their flock." In a more serious vein, Luvaas explained that the Jaycees' action in honoring the chief was prompted recognition of his co operative attitude in working with them on community improvement projects. "We want the people of Eugene to know how highly we think of Chief Surfus," Luvaas added. Other business at the Jaycees' meeting included discussion of a proposed regatta under their spon sorship at Fern Ridge Lake. Final Bond Accounting Take Place Saturday Residents of Lane County pur chased $35,981 wprth of U. S. Savings Bonds during the week ended July 3. This brings the total for the campaign to $676,186 or approximately 43 per cent of the original goal. Lane County is now in 20th place in the list of 36 counties, and below the state average sales of 47 per cent of quota. A recent letter from the Treas ury Department indicates that bond sales will be credited to the county only until July 15, with the final accounting to be com pleted by July 17. However, con sumers are urged to continue their bond buying in the fight against lnllatioa. Soldier Transferred To Newfoundland First Lt.
