Silverton In the gardens' of the late Julius Aim and
Mrs. Aim, 232 Phelps street, Liberty hill, Silverton, is a
seedling English walnut, planted by Mr. Aim, more than 40
years ago. This tree is unusually large. It has been a pro

clusters ot more than : three, ' and occasionally, four. The
picture showing the tingle cluster has nine nuts though two

Alcoa Shut out
Of U. S. Buying
Washington, Sept. 1 W Two
of the aluminum industry's "lit
tie fellows" have been alloted
tentatively the government's en
tire known purchase of alumi
num for stockpiling. This pro
gram would exclude their big
competitor, Aluminum Compa
ny of America.
An officials of the General
Services Administration, which
handles the buying for the muni
tions board, said the Kaiser-own
ed Permanente Metals Corp.
would have the right to take 40
percent of the government busi
ness and Reynolds Metals com
pany the other 60 percent.
Alcoa officials were known to
be concerned over the prospect
of being shut out of government
business not only for the present
but possibly for the next 25 years
under arrangements now con
templated. The quantity immediately in
volved is 60,000,000 pounds. This
Is the amount which the muni
tions board has Indicated It
wants to stockpile during the fis
cal year ending next June 30.
In addition, Henry J. Kaiser's
Permanente firm, which has just
contracted to buy three war' sur
plus aluminum plants, has the
option oi providing, up to about
40 percent of all "Indicated"
stockpile purchases for the next
25 years.
The' GSA spokesman explain
ed the exclusive transactions this
way: ; . . i
The surplus property ' law,
supported by a .court decision,
instructs the surplus agency to
dispose of aluminum plants in
the manner "best suit'ed to estab
lish competition in the aluminum
Industry," Alcoa has been sued
on ' anti-trust grounds.
The contract, as flow con
templated, would help Perma
nente and Reynolds which.be
gan aluminum production on a
sizable scale only during the war
become more firmly establish
ed. The stockpile sales also
would help them meet their
payments on the plant purchas
es, thereby protecting the gov
ernment's financial interest in
the plants.

nounced today by the Jefferson
county sheriff's office.
Search started yesterday aft
ernoon and today some 100 per
sons, including Madras volun
teer, firemen, state police, sher
iff's forces and forest service
employes were in the field.
A dozen planes also Joined the
search today. According to the
story related by returning mem
bers of the Theta Rho, an IOOF
organization of young girls that
had gone to the mountains for
hucklcberrying, about 10 mem
bers of the ground group had
prepared to go swimming in
Blue lake yesterday morning. It
was then that Virginia s disap
pearance was noted. It was
thought that, she had become
lost, from the -group while it had
been picking berries. Fear was
expressed that the girl might
have encountered a bear in the
berry field.
Virginia Carpenter is the
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Flor
ian J. Carpenter of Madras. The
father and a brother, Harry,
were with the searchers today.
Olallie Butte, where the fam
ily- was picking the berries, is
on the boundary line between
Jefferson and: Marion counties.
State police said it is a popular
spot, for huckleberry pickers,
Douglas said that six planes
from Madras, two from Albany,
two from Salem and two from
Sweet Home are joining in the
search. The civil air patrol is
helping the state board.
Olallie butte is 7,243 feet high
and is located 60 miles east of
Salem. It is close to the Oregon
skyline road, which connects
the Mt. Hood loop and the North
Santlam highway.
Division Commander, Brig.
Gen. C. Lyn Fox, said today it
must be real love.
'I, and every other officer of
the' outfit, have failed in a per
sistent campaign to get those
whiskers removed; Then one
girl comes along and the ser
geant not only surrendered his
heart but his whiskers.
The general, incidentally, is
going to give the bride away.

Dayton Grade
Opening Hears
Dayton The Dayton grade
school will begin its fall term
September 9 with the first bell
ringing at 8:20 a.m. admitting
pupils to the school grounds.
The last bell for pupils to report
to classes will ring at 8:45.
According to Robert Todd,
principal, the reason for start
ing school Friday Is for the pur
pose of the pupils having a bet
ter opportunity to obtain neces
sary supplies for the following
week and also to facilitate mak
ing any necessary changes to
meet the distribution of enroll
ment, as well as transportation.
Children entering school for
the first year should present
"evidence of age" and this is
best satisfied by a birth certifi
cate. The Oregon school law
states that a child must be six
years of age in order to begin
school. A child is considered to
be six years of age if his birth
day falls on or before November
15.
Pupils who plan to attend the
Dayton grade school, who have
attended school elsewhere,
should present a signed report
card from the school last attend
ed. A list of school supplies will
be given the pupils September
9.
Pupils do not need to bring
lunch on the opening day of
school as classes will be dis
missed early. However, it is re
quested that all pupils who do
not go home for lunch, bring
their lunches from home and eat
at the school, unless different
arrangements are made with the
school, beginning September 12.
