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.

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.
