Some $1 million in construc

power from the City of Eugene's
Carmen-Smith project to Eugene.

of the 46-mile line has been biult.
The remainder is scheduled for
completion by October 1962.
While there have been no of

clearing the remaining transmis
sion line right-of-way thu year
will be speeded up. ' -Design
of a $48,000 Fern Ridge
substation is rearing completion
and construction is expected' to
be finished by September, Moore
said.
The substation will tap the
BPA's Eugene-Mapleton trans
mission line in the vicinity of
Veneta for service to Lane Coun

Display Brings 'Good Old Days 9
To 'Life 9 for Logging Conferees
Foundry patterns fashioned a half century
ago for use in moulding logging equipment
parts are taking on life-like characteristics at
the Lane County Fairgrounds.
There, patterns for gears, pistons, plates and
drums are being fashioned into objects resem
bling animals and people.
These assorted characters not only will offer
persons attending the Oregon Logging Confer
ence an opportunity to guess what they resemble
but also the parts the various moulds were
used to make "in the good old days."
More than 1,000 persons are expected to
attend the conference, which opens for three
days Thursday in Eugene. ' ' i
Panel sessions will center attention on the
conference theme, "The Man in the Woods."
The Thursday morning keynote address is to be
given by Orlo M. Brees, a representative of the
National Assn. of Manufacturers.
Those attending the equipment show may
observe the items being assembled from
, foundry patterns by Kenyon R. Kaiser, 36-year-old
Eugenean commissioned to handle the
project for the conference. "
' Kaiser says he obtained the historic patterns
from 'Z. A. Coop, a long-time blacksmith and
foundryman at Cottage Grove.
They are original patterns used for casting
In iron or brass the repair parts for logging and
assorted equipment, Kaiser explains. Many
, were used years ago when horses and steam .
provided the power. ,
Kaiser, who is primarily a carver in wood
and stone, has taken the various gears, rigging,'
pistons and other patterns and has created such
objects as a little man and a character he calls
"Beast From the Woods."
There's also a donkey made from donkey
plates and a head made from a drum, brake
, shoes and block-and-tackle parts. .
The logging equipment exhibit will be open
to public viewing Thursday through Saturday.

Ducme HcrfdahL who has, been
chosen Junior Dealer of the Month
of January, is representative of
many successful young business
men. He is a member of a'family
that pulls' together. .
He is one of four sons of Mr. and
Mrs, R. O. Hafdahl who have carried
the Guard for over ten years. Duane'i
brother, Myron, now 22, started the
family tradition in 1051 when the
route consisted mainly of bulldozed
roads, rutty in summer, muddy in
winter. During his second year on
the route Myron was seriously ill.
Duane, 8 years old and in the 2nd
grade, helped his father substitute for
Myron 'til he was well again . . .
about five long months.
Now 15 years old, Duane has had the
route for three years on his own. He
took over from brother, Gordon, 18,
who had the route after Myron. Now,
Keith, 14, the youngest brother, sub
' stitutes for Duane.
.
-.--
et
JL.
Family cooperation makes a fine
base for business teamwork
later. Handling the route work
has interested Duane in busi
ness as a life work. His activity
in Junior Achievement, a youth
group that tackles small busi
ness operations from wholesale
traduction to retail profit and
oss has boosted his business
ability.
Sophomore Duane is a member
of the North Eugene Math Club,
studying graphs and computing
after school. He attends Our
Redeemer Lutheran Church.
Marvin Schlosser, 112 McClure,
is his best friend. Undecided
about college yet, Duane is sav
ing his money anyway. If he
does go on to school, it will be
to the U. O. Algebra and world
history are his favorite subjects.
He has good teachers. He says
you can Joke with them but you
can't go too far! Basketball is
the sport he likes best to watch.
His spread-out double route,
308 and 322, - ranges from
Maxwell and Howard to Grove
in the River Road district. He
has given consistent good serv
ice to his 137 customers and
paid his monthly bills promptly.
