Paulina Session
Held to Explain
Radio Situation
Special to The Bulletin
PRINEVILLE - A meeting
Thursday afternoon that included
county, stale and federal officials,
and some 20 residents of the Paul
ina ranching area, cleared the air
to some extent on the question of
short-wave radio as a means of
giving Paulina contact with Prine-
ville and other localities.
Many Paulina residents, whose
ranches are located as much as
80 miles from Prineville, had
hoped that a short-wave system
could replace the former, imprac
tical telephone line. A petition had
been circulated' in the ranching
area to that effect.
At the meeting in the county
court room here it was piade
clear that the expense of a short
wave unit could be met through
official channels provided that the
unit was used only for official and
emergency business.
It was explained to the group
that the civil defense funds were
available for a portion of the ex
pense only if the unit were offi
cial. Many Paulina residents are
seeking some means of commu
nication with Prineville, which
serves them as a city cpnter, and
would like to have some way of
transferring personal messages.
It was pointed out that a plan
is underway for the construction
of a shortwave unit on top Grizzly
Butte, northwest of Prineville
which would send and receive
messages county-wide, on official
business. The state highway and
police departments, the county
road organizations, and the civi
defense setup of the federal gov
eminent are interested in this
plan. The national forest on the
Ochoco mountains is also interest
ed in this arrangement for rapid
communication.
A representative of the Rural
Electrification Administration who
was present at the meeting stated
that power could be brought onto
the top of Grizzly Butte from a
point about six miles distant.
A separate short-wave unit, that
could be used in lieu of telephine
service was discussed by the
ranchers. Costs have not been
fully determined, however, and
there was some question as to
whether the 60 or more former
telephone subscribers in the Paul
ina area would be willing to foot
the bill for a separate system.
Future meetings are planned by
Paulina residents to settle details
of the problem.

San Diego Wins Double Header
By DON TIIACKREY
United Press Sports Writer
The San Diego Padres were fin
ished today with a week of Star-
lazing and calculated they could
?rab the Pacific Coast League pen
nant if they could keep up their
istrology course.
The Padres, who battled all last
ear with the Hollywood Stars,
lulled the switch on their northern
leighbors last week by winning
.even out of eight games and
aulting from third place to first
n the standings.
The Pads were helped out by
the rest of the league all of
whom spun their wheels by spitt
ing Sunday doubleheaders while
he San Diego team won two.
San Diego bopped Hollywood 4-1
and 11-2. San Francisco took Sac
ramento 11-1 and then lost 3-2.
Portland had a homer feast off
Oakland pitching for a 5 4 win anr1
then returned the compliment 5-2.
And Los Angeles went into second
ulace with a 7-5 win over Seattle
ind then changed places by losing
the nightcap 5-0.
By tar the best pitched game of
the day was the lone shutout in
the second game at Los Angeles.
Rinold Duren of the Seattle Rai
niers blanked the Angels on oni
lonesome single. He gave that up
to Gene Mauch in the third inning
of the seven inning contest an'
that blow did not get out of th
infield.
Gene Verblc had three for three
; including a homer to give Duren
all the support he needed.
Earlier the Angels had come up
with a five run eighth inning to
zoom from behind and take the
leapfrog second place battle.
San Diego got a fine spot of
pitching from John Carmichael In
the first game. He scattered eight
hits and held the Stars scoreless
after the firs tinning.
Ed Bailey hit a two run homer
for the Pads in the second to
provide plenty of margin.
Unpp Homer
In the nightcap Ed Erautt was
in control as Earl Rapp and Julio
V.
I .
in nisrory ana literature, usually
perches on a worn millstone in
Becquer homered for the league
leaders.
Portland got three home runs
from the bat of rookie Joe Taylor
and one from the stick of veteran
Eddie Basinski to account for all
the runs in the first game. Tay
lor's third homer in the eighth
broke a tie and gave (he Beavers
the win.
It was just the opposite in the
second game. Oakland got homers
by Billy Consolo and Joe Brovia to
irovide their part of a 2-2 tie. Then
Jim Marshall hit a three run
lomer to make the difference.
San Francisco erupted for 1!)
hits as Mike Baxes drove in five
runs in the first game to swamp
?acramento but the Solons made
a single hit a little short squeeze
iunt by Leo Thomas count for
iust as much as they won these
?ond game.
Thomas bunt brought home the
mn that broke a 2-2 deadlock in
'he seventh inning.

Falconry Not
Easily, Or in
By MARTHA 8TBAXAHAN
Hilileti.i Kluff Writer -
You dnn't learn the art and
sport of falconry in a week, a
month or even in 45 years, con
tends Col. Russell Luff Meredith.
Ret. But in that latter span o
time Col. Meredith, who with his
charming Stockholm born wife
has recently moved to Central
Oregon, has acquired pribably as
much knowledge of lalconry as
anyone now living. He was doubt
less a very logical choice for pres
idem of the. Falconry Club of
America, and is editor and pub
lisher of its journal, Falconry
News and Notes.
A white male gyrfalcon and a
dark, mottled female peregrine
are the only hawking birds he has
at present. Back of litem Col.
Meredith remembers falcons he
has captured, raised and trained
in locations around the world from
Washington. D. C. to Greenland
Sweden to Montana. The sport it
self attracts devotees everywhere
in fie world.
Cn!. Meredith's interest in the
little known and usually misunder
stood field snort began in Wash-
ington, D. C. where as a youth
je Jrai"ed ? yu"g sh?rli"
hawk taken from the nest. This
spurred his study of falconry
which involves knowledge of ornl-
tnoiogy, oirq psycnoiogy, me spe
cial vocabulary associated with
the sport and the acquisition of
patience and understanding of
his birds which developed into e
continuing and engrossing advoca
tion for the now retired airforcr
man and one-time test pilot. He
does say there have been tinier
when he considered giving it ur
'because of the discouraging fea
tures of the hobby. One of these
is indiscrimiiiite shooting of nny
thing tiiat flies by thoughtless
nimrods, frequently resulting in
the killing of trained hawks.
. Suitable Climate
The Merediths decided this re
gion and climnte suited them bes'
after trying West Texas, Montana
nnd other places offering semi-wilt'
terrain and a fair amount o.
game. Summers in Texas were
too hot, Montana winters too cold
They bought the Lester Waltor
home and acreage near Deschutes
coming from Great Falls, Mont
where they owned a 3000-acrc
cattle ranch. Col. Meredith wai

Sport Learned
Short Time
of a pigeon lure. Driving through
a neis near Port Isabella Col.
Meredith spied a falcon and sent
out a pigeon in a lealher harness
which had nylon nooses. The stoop
ing peregrine's claws caught in
the net and he had another b'nl
to train.
The falconer wears special lealh
er gloves when handling his birds.
Trappings far the birds include
lea;her hoods wliich cover their
eyes and quiet them. When hunt
ing the falconer uses a dog to lo
cate the game such as wild duck
jr partridges. His falcon, perched
in ilis wrist, is unhooded and re
eased. The bird mounts In wide
circles until she attains "pitch."
There she will sail steadily in cir
:les while "waiting-on" for the
luarry to be fluihed. The falconer
flushes the game downwind. When
he falcon's keen eyes spot the
prey she goes into her stoop after
t few fast strokes, strikes the
ame and either kills or misses
completely. If a falcan merely
stuns the game she will check
her flight, "bind" to it on the
ground ana break the quarry s
leek with her beak.
These birds with pointed wingt
ire, built for speed. The most ac
curate clocking known, about 200
m.p.h., was made by an army
oilot who was diving, says Col.
Meredith, on a flock of ducks, do
ng about 175 m.p.h. when a fal
xn ' passed him, struck anr1
tilled one of the flock, and veered
)ff. .
How do you get your falcon
jack after a strike? If she has
tilled the falcon goes' to her game,
mt if not she will return to thr
ure, a simulated pigeon. In the
nitial training horsemeat or pari
if a freshly killed pigeon is placed
in the lure, but a trained bird re
'urns to her master's wrist to be
'ed. In hunting bells arc placed
in the bird's legs so the hunter
nay locate his falcon if she has-
one into deep brush after killing
ler prey. Cil. Meredith plans h
ise his birds to hunt . game a
.veil as crows, magpies and jack
abbits which abound on his pron
irty.
Falconry is an ancient pastlime
3as reliefs of falcons have been
ound in ruins in Khorsabad, dat
ng from 1500 B.C. In Europe dur-
ng Middle Ages ranks of royalty
vere denoted by the breed o
lawks a man owned, kings havinr
he gyrfalcons or peregrines. La
Ues' hawks were known as mer
ins, gentlemen's as hobbies.
Mem'.iership Small
Membership in the Falconry
I'.ub of America is small, though
nost states of the Union, Canada
ind Mexico are reiresentcd. A
'alconcr needs time for the hobbj
nd range for the birds. Members
ire sincerely devoted to the organ
zation and its purooses which are
(1) To foster, guide and perpctu
ite the sport of falconry or hawk
'ng in the United States and to
oromote its better understanding
ind acceptance as a legal field
iport. (2) To foster, guide and
support conservation of the bil-dr
prey in general, and in partlc
ilar to treasure the Peregrine Fal
'on (Duck Hawk) as symbolical of
the sport. (3) To guide the use of

conry. (5) To cooperate with thr
federal and state governments, and
sportsmen and conservation organ

Col. Meredith does not recom

Ihe company holds.
. Many a 19th century financier
lived to rue the day that he turned
down a chance to invest in the
canal. Ferdinand.de Lesscps, the
French diplomat who spearheaded
construction of the canal, sold
the original stock issue easily
enough in 1858 but by the time
the canal was completed It had
cost twice as much as origin
ally estimated.
De Lcsseps had to arrange loans
and even set up a lottery to '
raise money to see his dream
realized. ,..
The Suez Canal had been a
Iream of Nanoleon, too, but he
dropped the idea when his engi
neers informed him (erroneously!
