Regfster-Gnartf, fngene. Ore. 4C Thur., Mar. 18, 1954 Club Hears Of Canine Activities By MRS. B. H. FRYE of Eugene Kennel Club Tin custom of a member show ing his dog and giving a talk on the history and show points to look for in that breed, was re lumed at the Thursday meeting of Eugene Kennel Club. Robert Wren and his Standard Schnauz er, Wargames Watch of Williams, revealed many little-known (acts about this uncommon breed. "Fritiy" finds it rough going to attend dog shows where enough of his breed are entered to make points towards a championship. There were 245 Standard Schnauzers registered with the AKC in the United States during 1953. So competition is hard to find to cam those necessary 15 points. Not a new breed, the Schnauzer can be traced back to the 14th century in Germany. They are well known as a rat catcher and watch dog, make wonderful children's pets and Obedience dogs and are perfect! gentlemen even around other Itrange dogs. But they'll stand for no bullying from any of them Also of interest was the demon stration of how these dogs arc plucked and trimmed for their show appearances. Great pride is taken in their luxuriant growth of chin whiskers, Schnauzers arc classed in the working group A talk was given by Jack Burt about his years of raising Staf fordshire Terriers, commonly re ferred to as American Fit Bulls. Originally bred for the ancient port of pit fighting, the members learned they can be fine pets and are genuinely fond of women and children. Even when they fought in pits before that was out lawed, they distinguished between the man smell and would only at tack the other dog. But when they were bred to a more gentle tern perament, they became better known as the Staffordshire Ter rier. New additions to their canine families were reported by several members. Mrs. Clinton Godlove's Rollicking Rickey's Sally Gal and Sally's Romping Boy became proud parents of seven fine bounc lng Springer Spaniel puppies a month ago. To celebrate the event, Romping Boy went to Portland Kennel Club's 31st all breed dog show March 6 and which had an entry of 427 dogs. While there he went Best Open Dog, Best of Winners and Best of Breed of the Springers, earning another point towards his cham pionship. Mrs. Ray Bond's Honey Creek Ceramic and Bonito's Jack Frost, two beautiful red and white parti colored Cockers, are fondly gaz ing at their red and white triplets of a couple of weeks. Mrs. 0. C. Hinshaw has been telling her tiny Pomeranian Opal's Delightful Girl, that she would appreciate a litter of seven Pom puppies to help fill her orders.. But the little girl decided one baby was enough to care for at a time. On the other hand, Int. Ch. Hunter of Thornwood and Ch. Leaf of Thornwood presented a problem for the stork with a bun dle of 10 Golden Retrievers for Mr. and Mrs. Leo Cox. Mr. and Mrs. Charles Wilson of Spring field, were presented with four Boxer puppies, three boys and a little girl, by their proud mama, Lennie. Twenty-two Eugene members attended the Portland show, but most had to leave their dogs at home. Bringing back ribbons and trophys, besides Sally's Romping Boy, were Lowes Truck Boss, Mr. and Mrs. Fred Lowe's handsome English Bulldog who won the Open Dog class and Best of Win ners, gathering in another point. "Boss" is looking around for an other major show where he can pick up the remaining .1 points needed for his championship. Arlo Lancaster's Boxer, Duch ess, making her first appearance in a show, look third ribbon in the Novice Bilch class and Bcr Mil's Mocco, Mr. and Mrs. Bert Crippen's up-and-coming young English Bulldog took second rib bon in the Open Dog class. New members accepted in the club were Mr. and Mrs. Tom Slockman, Boxer owners, and Travis Cross, a Cocker owner. Canine guests included Mr. and Mrs. Wren's Wargames Watch of Williams, Mr. and Mrs. J. Wallis, 7-monlh-old Ocrman Shepherd, Schon, and Mrs. John Lay's !t- month-old Weimaraner, Lay'Fab- ion. Olhrr guests were Terry Frye, David Moss, Mr. and Mrs. Alan Shelmerdine, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Wilson, Mr. and Mrs. .lark Wallis and Mr. and Mrs. William Gooch. Mr. and Mrs.! Rert Crippen were in charge of refreshments. Mrs, Fred Lowe, secretary, an nounced she had received AKC approval for tho Lahnr Day date for Eugene Kennel Club's 8th An nual all-breed dog show. pi All my life I've made spas modic attempts to keep a dairy and the other day I came upon a few yellowed pages that go back to a love-sick spring of my board ing school days. Why am I so ugly?" I wrote in once-passionate, now faded purple ink, "Never, never will B. love me when I look like this! There followed extravagantly depressed estimates of my own appearance and ecstatic nntaions about.- B s height, his looks and his charm. I feel sorry for the poor spring-mazed girl that was me, but what makes me really sad is that I haven't the faintest idea now who the beloved B. was, I'm sure only that he was a stu dent at Westminster College which like my own school, Wil liam Woods, was in Fulton, Mo. Originally, William Woods was for the children of Civil War heroes, but later it was enlarged and renamed for my-Grcat Uncle Willie, who endowed it. That was how I happened to get sent there. We didn't wear sunbonnets as the Civil War orphans had, but our uniforms made us just as con spicuousthree cornered mortar board caps and long black robes with flowing sleeves such as scholars don when degrees are conferred upon them. We put on our caps and gown even when we went for afternoon walks, looking and acting more like soldiers drilling than a bunch of lively young girls out to stretch their legs. Two by two we marched along the paths of the countryside, one teacher in front to clear the way of boys and kindred dangers and another to guard the rear. We marched to church, the whole school in line, and divided into smaller groups, we marched I rrom Aunclited Preii Newifuturei downtown once a month to shop. We were supposed not to know that boys existed even though we were constantly stumbling over the Westminster students. Some times in these hazardous encount ers, a boy passed a girt a note and this, if found later, on the girl's person, meant court mar- lial, boarding school style. Then puppy love found a better way, There was a third school in Ful ton, one for the deaf-and-dumb, and all of us learned their: language. On Sundays as we girls sat demurely in the body of the church, upstairs in the gallery, reversing the Romeo and Juliet routine, were the boys, and fing ers in both areas formed loving messages hidden from teachers scrutiny by hymn books and Sun day school leaflets. For at least one young man, though, this long-range commu nication was not enough. Tommy, dark-eyed, curly-haired, got hold of a Willie cap and gown, tuck ed up his trousers legs, put on our uniform and slipped into the line beside Martha, the girl of his choice. Within seconds, by the mysterious grapevine that operates in schools and prisons, everyone knew he was there. But' the teachers in charge that day never suspected. He walked along for a while murmuring no telling what sweet nothings, then disappeared as adroitly as he had arrived. Whoever B. was, I'm glad he didn't possess Tommy's lion heart, for one thing I'm sure of: if he'd suddenly appeared in that line beside me, I'd have fainted for the first time of my life. (Roglstcr-Guard pholo, W iltshire ens ) MRS. CHARLES NELSON, president of Delta Gamma alumnae, presents Miss Genevieve Eachus with a case of dogfood for her guide dog, Thunder. The gift was made possible by earnings of a recent benefit style show given at the sorority house. The re mainder of the receipts will be divided between the Springfield health department, for eye surgery and glasses; the Oregon School for Blind, and the Skipworth Juvcnille Home, for eye care. Colin Kelly PTA Chooses Committee Mrs. Herrlck H. Wheeler, Mrs, Kenneth Gustafsnn and .Mrs. Douglas F. Erdman were elected a nomination committee by Colin Kelly Junior High School PTA last week. Program included numbers by a girls' ensemble conducted by music supervisor Estley Schick. Participating were Carolyn Hughes, Nancy Miller, Margaret Campbell, Phyllis Huddlcston, Linda Copping, Dixie Chambers, Darlcne Beat, Jcaneil Giles, Don na Huffman, Gloria Johnson, Pris cilla Lusk, and Linda Revell. A panel discussion on "Prob lems of Tecn-Agers," was moder ated by eighth grade teachers Mrs. T. P. Otto and Charles Wil bur, Opinions expressed were the cross-section of 157 eighth grad ers studying family problems and guidance of teen-agers in social living periods. Concensus of opinion was that the cultural pal tern of teen-agers at junior high level is entirely different from that of high school students and from that of college students. All agreed they wanted open discussion in families about prob lems pertaining to them, they wanted counseling and advice from parents, but failing to get it from parents, they would turn to teachers or other sources.
