Hanford Banned
Portland, Ore., Aug. 12 (ff)
The Hanford atomic plant Is so
closely regulated that not even
national guard and reserve air
force planes can practice de
fending it.
So the fliers will pretend that
the Umatilla, Ore., area is Hand
ford. And there they will stim
ulate a defense of the area Sun
day, August 21.
Fliers from Oregon, Washing
ton, Idaho and Montana will
take part. Portland, Boise,
Spokane and Great Falls each
will send 12 F-51 fighter planes
1o rendezvous over Pendleton.
Then they will move to Umatilla
to Intercept an enemy force
represented by reserve pilots
from Spokane. Ground forces
from Portland also will partici
pate. The switch must be made be
cause flights over Hanford, even
by military planes, are forbid
den. '

Hal Foster at Drawing Board '
WIFE LIKE GOLDEN ALETA
Creator of 'Prince Valiant'
Has Adventure in His Blood
By HAL FOSTER
I draw.
Specifically, I draw "Prince Valiant," the adventure strip,
which appears in the week-end edition of the Capital Journal.
Maybe you read it; maybe not.
They do tell us cartoonists that more people read the comics
than any other part of the paper.f
This may be just to keep us
happy. We are.
I'm a Nova Scotian. The biog
raphies of me say that "adven
ture was in Foster's blood." This
means, I guess, that at the age
of ten I was sailing a 30-foot
boat alone in the waters off
Halifax. When I was 14, I
trapped furbearing animals and
later on I became a guide and
a gold prospector.
I still carry some birdshot in
one leg, a memento of the time
a Manitoba half-breed got drunk
and made at me and opened up
with a shotgun.
I've been drawing "Prince
Valiant" since 1936 for King
Features Syndicate. The prince
himself, an old friend of mine
by this time, is the kind of fel
low I wish I were.
Once in a while I gel away
from my newspaper work and
I do some fine-arts things, a
couple of which have won prizes.
I like to fish and hunt, and
I like to be around people of
whom I am genuinely fond,
rather than people I should
know. I have one superstition:
I never fail to face north and
take a drink to the Red Gods
before casting a rod or loading
gun. I'm gray and hatless and
I drink about everything except
milk.
My ambition is to enjoy this
life as fully as possible, and my
plans for the future call for
more leisure and a little more
money, if possible. When my
work becomes boring, I'm go
ing to retire. I think real suc
cess is earning a living at a job
in which you are vitally inter
ested. The piling-up of possessions is
regarded with such approval
Ballot Sortine in Ford Election Tabulators sort ballots
for counting in Detroit in the Ford Motor Co. strike vote.
The state labor mediation board reported that 65,001 voted for
a strike and 9,549 against. This was 7-1 majority. UAW
President Walter Beuther said there would be no immediate
walkout. He expressed hope that agreement could still be
reached at the bargaining table (AP Wirephoto)
Hungry Bears
Invade Duluth
Duluth, Minn., Aug. 12 0J.R
Hungry bears are invading Du
luth daily because of a shortage
of berries in the surrounding
woods, police said today.
At least seven bears have been
killed or found dead in and near
the city, officers said.
One cub was found starved to
death in the basement of a sub
urban home. It had entered
thorugh a coal chute and died
before the residents found it.
Citizens have become s o
jumpy about the invading bears
that they have started taking
pot shots at dogs by mistake.
Tavern Owners to Meet

Prince Valiant
that many incompetents strive
to do so all their lives. Monkeys
and bluejays also collect bright
objects.
I live quietly, almost, in the
hills of Connecticut with the
original Mrs. Foster, whose for
bearance is remarkable. She is
the model of the slim and golden
Aleta.
Although the years have ex
acted their usual toll I can still
remember. I work from 45 to
55 hours a week, which is
enough for anyone. I used to
like the late Leslie Howard in
the movies and I guess I still
like any actress with good form.
This is my credo: Never shoot
a sitting bird, never take more
fish than would fit a fry-pan.

Fire Destroys
Freight Depot
Tacoma, Wash., Aug. 12CU.R)-
A roaring fire, which swept
through half the length of the
Great Northern railroad's block
long, brick, freight depot here
last night caused damage which
may run as high as $25,000 fire
men said today.
Firemen said that about half
the depot's storage space was
charred by the flames but luck
ily there was not a great deal of
freight stored in the area. Dam
aged or destroyed by the fire
were shipments of novelty store
merchandise, bags oi sugar,
enamelware and stainless-steel
kitchen ware, A large supply of
hardwood flooring, drums of oil
and paint missed being damaged
The fire was believed to have
started in a shipment of person
al household goods which arriv
ed yesterday or from a defec
tive battery charger which was
being used on the depot's elec
tric lift-truck.
The fire was brought under
control within half an hour.
Four engine companies respond
ed to the call. Windows all along
the side of the depot burst from
the heat.
Boy Wins 50-50
Chance with Drug
Portland, Ore., Aug. 12. (U.B
A 13-year-old boy is alive today
because a new drug myonescin
was used to combat a tetanus
infection.
Harry Forquer of Gaston, Ore.,
entered the Doernbecher hospital
for children July 23 and was
given a 50-50 chance to recover
from lockjaw. On July 4 he step
ped on a nail. By July 23 his jaw
muscles had tightened and his
neck was stiff.
His condition got worse until
a University of Oregon medical
school professor gave the hos

drug. Within one minute of the
first myonescin injection, young

before his meals in order to
loosen jaw muscles.
Now Harry is well enough to
be home by August 22nd for his
14th birthday, the hospital re
ported today.

Astoria, Aug. 12 UP) The
three-week strike of CIO Col
umbia river gillnetters ends to

County Scans Law
On Stock Districts
County Judge Grant Murphy
Friday in commenting on the
request of the Marion county
livestock disease control com
mittee for changes in the setup
of veterinarians administering
the Bangs disease and tuberculo
sis control in livestock, said he
plans to review the law to as
certain if the county court has
the authority to cut up-the coun
ty into veterinary districts and
lo assign a veterinarian to each
one, as requested by the disease
control committee
If he finds that the court has
such authority then, he says, he
contemplates asking the disease
control committee to name a
sub-committee to act jointly
with the county court in setting
up such districts. Then, if the
recommendations of the control
committee are fully carried out,
two veterinarians will be added
to the present roster and each
one will be designated as a
county veterinarian, rather than
a deputy as now, and each one
will be given full control and
responsibility for his own dis
trict. Bean Crop Saved
By Cool Weather
"The only thing that is saving
the bean crop is the cool weath
er," William H. Baillie, manager
of the local U. S. Employment
service office, said Friday.
Baillie was referring to the
lack of pickers in the West Stay
ton area. Hundreds of acres of
beans are now ready for pick
ing, and unless they are picked
in the next few days, they will
be ruined. Cool weather during
the past week has kept them
from spoiling, Baillie pointed
out.
Baillie urges residents of Sa
lem and vicinity to drive out to
the West Stayton area and aid
in the harvest of beans. He said
that nearly all bean fields are
in dire need of pickers.
The first intpr.p tv fir Kriv.
ade contest was held in Ohio
between the cities of Middle
town, Springfield and Dayton.
The brigades were made up of
teams of factory employes.
