8 The Bend Bulletin, "MR. SCHOOFER" Thii steer, raised on Howard Buller"s ranch east of Bend, provided data which will go into IBM machines of Performance Registry International, with some valuable information on red meat expected. The animal wai not fattened it was conditioned. Capfain Buller is waiting IBM data on 'Mr. Schoofer' By Phil F. Brogan Bull. tin Staff Writer Few Central Oregon cattlemen knew "Mr. Schoofer," but they are expected to hear plenty about liiin when Performance Registry International IBM machines com plete their tabulation. "Mr. Schoofer," a name which 8 potential astronauts are selected WASHINGTON (UP!) The Air Force Friday announced the selection of eight potential astro nauts from a field of 55 highly qualified test pilots who volun teered for space duly at Ed wards Air Force Baae in Cali fornia.

(UI'D Two successful tests of the rockefcjiip X15 in as many days encouraged the Air Force to day to alteml to set new records Willi the sleek craft. Veteran pilot Joe Walker will try next wn k to lake the X1S al most 50 miles high. Walker's (light will he preceded Tuesday by a high-speed test by Maj. Robert While, who hopes to fly 4,o:5 miles an hour at a hcifiht of 110.000 feet. The X15 holds the world's speed and altitude records for manned aircraft ;.0!i3 miles an hour and 217.000 feet. Dith flights were to be made w ith a new secondary emergency control system which would be ued should the mam flight eon titil system fail during reentry Into the earth's atmosphere.

Saturday, April 21, 1962 sp -jL. va j.. i In Arabic means a looker, was a year-old steer, part of tho Poll' ed Hereford herd of Captain How- ard Buller, cattleman whose ranch is on the Butler Road east of Bend. The steer was calved on March 15, It was butchered a week ago. The dates are inv portant, for they are part of a speoacular beef raising record. It is a record that will point to the value of dual grading of beef slock. The data provided by "Mr. Schoofer" are expected to add further proof that top animals in the show ring seldom cut out as high in the rib, loin and round when they get to the cutting blocks as do carcasses of the longer, less chunky critters. You can t look at a steer and tell what it will do," Captain Buller noted in presenting data obtained from the carcass of his fine animal. That animal was not fattened it was conditioned. The result was a carcass classified as ideal. Out of the first 1200 steers re cently given a check test in Den ver, Colo., only 20 were found to be in Die ideal class.' Before tho start of conditioning work, Buller enrolled his 70-ani-mal herd with the Oregon Beef Cattle Association and with Per formance Registry International. 'Mr. Schoofer ' was weighed in and graded at the Buller ranch when 205 days old. Its weight at thtt time was 572 pounds. That was an average daily gain, from birth, of 2.45 pounds. The grade was prime. The steer was clear ly identified as a Superior Ani mal. Buller stresses Hint he did not fatten the animal. He conditioned it with a ration of 24 per cent concentrates, 75 per cent alfalfa and oats. The sUH?r, as a calf. ran wilh its dam on a Taylor act "low desert" tract adjacent to the ranch. At the age of 13 months, the steer weighed 878 pounds, after 12 hours without feed or water. The warm carcass weight was 548 pounds. This showed a dress- out percentage of 62.4, with only a half inch of fat cover and onlv marginal kidney fat. The chilled r areas; grade was straight choice, and the marbling score was 8. defined as a "small amount. The ribeve area was approxi mator 14 square inches, well un der the best steer IcsR-d, 17 square inches. All these data will go into the IBM machines, which will make available in about two weeks the official report on the steer. So far all reports are field estimates. Genetics, as well as condition' ing, are factors in the increase of carcass values, cattlemen agree. And. they point out, "fat sells for two to three cents a pound, meat for 70 to 80 cents." The carcass of the local steer scored over 10 per cent of the average on rod meat area. Pickets protest grain for Reds SEATTLE tl'PIl rickets, some of them American Legion mem bers nnd others describing them selves as "just American citi lens," showed up nt a dock Thursday to protest the loading of the Greek freighter Anmtsa with grain bound for Communist Poland. The plckel ing disrupted the load ing for a few minutes when long shoremen refused to wtirk behind a picket line. I'nder police order the picket line moved back about 500 feel and work resumed. The first pickets, seven women and a man wearing a Barry Gold waler pm. showed up at 1 pm. They were joined later by about :i members of Seattle American legion Post No. 1 and the Burien.

Lafler UPI Stiff Wrlttr He called himself Louis Car riere and he lived in a three room studio apartment in Algiers. His hair was black and he had a bushy black mustache but he attracted no particular notice when he strolled down the terror stricken city's streets because black hair and bushy black mus taches are not uncommon. So the man known as Carriere was startled when French secur ity forces arrested him. He be came pale but remained calm when they unmasked him as Raoul Salan, leader of the anti De Gaulle Secret Army Organiza tion (OAS). Salan, whose OAS has pledged a fight to the death to keep Al geria French, was flown quickly to Paris and locked up in Sante prison with other captured OAS members, including former Gen. 5ofe your jwblems tpjChuirjt tins week .4 Vt, Nt' I 3 This series of advertisements is published each week in The Bend Bulletin in the interest of all the churches of the Central Oregon area, and is made possible by the following inter ested individuals and establishments.

Ont Still At Larg Jouhaud was recently sentenced to death for his participation in the mass slaying of Moslems and pro-De Gaulle Frenchmen. It was considered likely that Salan, a cashiered general who had been France's most-decorated soldier, would receive the same fate. Two other former French Gen eralsMaurice Challe and Andre Zellcr surrendered voluntarily earlier and received comparative ly mild 15-year sentences. Only one OAS leader, former Gen. Paul Gardy, remains at large in Algeria. French officials predicted that the capture of Salan had broken the back of the secret army. Salan is expected to make the same defense as Jouhaud, that he was a patriot who did not want Algeria, which now is a part of France, to become an independ ent nation ruled by Moslems.

If f ' j Consider fciai The lilies of spring are witness to hope, faith and that which is permanent and worthwhile in life, in contrast to that which is tem porary and of little real worth. They bloom at a time when the earth has been laid bare by winter. They give hope and renewed faith in some thing lasting and eternal in this constantly changing world in which man is but a pilgrim. They shine forth in all their beauty, but hold none of it back for themselves to selfishly keep for old age. They bloom forth as if to say, "We are here but a short time so we must give of ourselves to the fullest, that this world may be a better, more hopeful place in which others may live for awhile." The Church is also a place of hope, a place to renew faith and a place to gain a true perspective of that which is worthwhile, lasting and good. The church you choose is an excellent place to have the truths of the sermon of the lilies constantly held before you in review. Lclco Donner Flower Shop Polly Orurie Clair Clair unmasked as OAS leader Salan Only the days to come will de cide whether the OAS at last has been defeated. Beginning Monday, soldiers in the troubled Algerian cities of Algiers, Oran, Constantine and Bone will be under orders to shoot on sight any person wear ing the OAS uniform. The storybook capture of Salan climaxed a busy week that began when President Kennedy made peace with the steel industry which he had denounced for rais ing the price of their product No Hard Feelings After the steel companies had rescinded their price rise, Ken nedy said he had no ill feelings against their leaders. But he called on both labor and manage ment in all industries to act in the public interest in the fight against inflation. Other major developments; Disarmament; Kennedy at tempted unsuccessfully to end the The Lilies Inc. East-West deadlock on disarma ment at Geneva by proposing to cut the world's armed forces about two-thirds in six years and eventually replace all armies with a United Nations peace force. But Russia described it as noth ing new. Russians also indicated they w ould walk out of the Gene va talks if the United States re sumes nuclear testing next week. Astronauts: The Air Force se lected eight new astronauts. Some of them may participate In the current Project Mercury but all will be trained for Project Gemi ni, the operation designed to place manned space ships in or bit before undertaking a landing on the moon at the end of this decade.
