LANE COUNTY'S HOME NEWSPAPFtt
EUGENE, OREGON, MONDAY, APRIL 8, 1963
Philippine Development
By JACK WILSON
or the Register-Guard
E. Stanton Turner is a man
who speaks of the Far East in
general and the Philippines in
particular with the easy fami
liarity most of us can show only
when discussing our home town.
This is not a bit surprising, in
view of the fact that Turner,
now 77, has spent most of his
adult life living and working
with the people of the Philip
pines.
Physically a big man, Turner
has retained the erect posture,
penetrating gaze and firm speak
ing voice of the natural leader.
He speaks slowly and carefully,
weighing each sentence and pol
ishing every phrase before it is
uttered. His thinning hair is
sandy rather than gray, with
touches of its original black col
oring. During his 37 years in the
Philippines, first as director of
the YMCA movement there and
later as chief fundraiser for
money to rebuild Y structures
after the war, Turner developed
a genuine admiration for the
people of the island nation.
"They were the first people
lo carry out a revolution against
a colonial power," Turner said
during an interview Monday.
"Their urge for frccdon goes
back hundreds of years."
And today. Turner declared,
Trucker Asks
$220,054
In Damages
A damage suit asking nearly
a quarter of a million dollars
was filed by a Eugene trucker
in Lane County Circuit Court
Friday.
Richard E. Bennett, of 1236
Melvina Way, seeks a total of
$220,054 in damages from S & W
Fine Foods, a California firm,
and an S&W truck driver for
injuries he says he received in
a 1961 accident.
Bennett's suit claims his log
truck was struck from behind
by a truck driven by Joe John
Pimental, an S & W employe, on
Franklin Boulevard near the
Villard Street intersection in
Eugene. The accident occured
Oct. 30, 1961.
The suit alleges Bennett re
ceived disabling back and spine
injuries and that a diabetic con
dition was aggravated by the
accident. He seeks $210,000
general damages and $10,054
for loss of wages and medical
treatment.
8,000 Visit
Fairgrounds,
Scout Show
A "real fine crowd" of ap
proximately 8,000 people visited
the Boy Scout Skill Show at the
Lane Count;- Fairgrounds Fri
day and Saturday, Scout Execu
tive George Alexander reported
Monday.
Alexander said he estimated
the total to be somewhat higher
than in previous years when the
show has been in the Cow
Palace. This year the Skill Show
booths were set up in the agri
cultural building and the audi
torium. Boy and Explorer Scouts in
this area are looking forward
to the next main spring event
the weekend camporces. All
troops and posts participate in
these competitive camp-outs,
Alexander said.

ELAINE F. KOPPERLD SHARON GODARD
Six seniors three from
Springfield High School and
three from Thurston High
School are finalists in the
Miss Springfield Pageant.
A spokesman for the
Springfield Junior Chamber
of Commerce, which is spon
soring the pageant, said Mon
day there may be up to four
more finalists selected this
week. The contest will be
held May 17 at Thurston
High School.
The six finalists an
nounced Monday are Elaine
F. Kopperud, 17, Sharon
Marie Godard, 17. and Lana
Gay Iverson, 18, all of
Springfield High School, and
Darline Helen Lambert, 18,
Diane Lee Nelson, 18, and
Donna Marie Davis, 18, all of
Thurston High School.
The winner of the Miss
Springfield contest will rep
resent the community in the
Miss Oregon Pageant at Sea
tide in June. Miss Spring
: field will also receive a
scholarship and wardrobe.
Miss Kopperud. the daugh

, 60 per cent of the common
wealth legislature of the islands
had either lived in a YMCA
or had been Y members. And
the president of the Philippines
in 1952 attributed much of the
strength of his cabinet to the
fact that many had been in the
Y program."
After his "retirement" in
1952, Turner returned to the
Far East on a survey mission
for the Ford Foundation, and
has been back eight times since
then.
He was impressed with the
industrial growth of Japan, but
he expressed a measure of dis
appointment in the disparity of
U.S. aid to that country and
to the Philippines.
"Japan gets more U.S. as
sistance every year," he said,
"than has been given in total to
the Philippines. And the Fili
pinos were our strongest ally
in the Pacific when we were
fighting the Japanese."
This country- provided only
one-eighth of 1 per cent of
the cost of rebuilding the Phil
ippines after the Japanese oc
cupation, Turner said, but the
nation nevertheless made
"marked progress" in the pro
cess of industrialization.
"Over 700 new factories have
been built in Manila alone since
the war," Turner said. "And
the future is promising."
The Tuesday night banquet
is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. and
is priced at $2 per plate.
