LOS ANGELES (P) Remem
ber that long: Open The Door,
Richard?
Well, because 10-year-old Rich
ard Serrao couldn't open it, he was
in Los Angeles Friday, Instead of
at home in Honolulu.
He went aboard the Matson
Liner Lurline at Honolulu with
his mother to tee some friends off
for the mainland.
He said he went into the rest
room, the door slammed and he
couldn't open it. He wasn't dis
covered until the Lurline was far
out at sea.
His mother wired him $120 for
a round-trip ticket.' Richard is
watching his doors, for the Lur
line is due to sail Friday night for
home.

much footage in a day and save
considerable expenses," Lamb ex-;
plained.
He has been owner of the Lamb
Scaling Bureau, Salem, for about
20 years. He has worked in the
woods most of his life. He learned
to fly at Albany, Oregon, when he
was 46, "just a few years ago." j
Son-ln-Law Helps
Assisting him now is his son-in-law,
Leonard Cain, 25, who
also is a seaplane pilot with about
175 hours.
Lamb often sets down beside a
raft entow, ties up his- "water
wings" and measures the footage
as the raft, plane and scaler flows
gently down the stream.
He carries his scale stick, a
measuring staff with knife-like
spikes on the end, in a pair of
clamps alongside the plane's pon
toons. When Lamb is not scaling logs,
he likes to fly to some remote
lake and fish from the plane.
Even Mrs. Lamb is getting the
flying habit, he said.
The United States now has an
annual harvest of 200,000,000
bushels of soybeans.
