Schmidt of Silverton Wins
Corn-Growing Contest
By CLAUDE STEUSLOFF
Corn yielding 86.2 bushels per acre was grown by Albert
Schmidt of Silverton to win the corn growing contest at the
12th annual Marion county corn show held Saturday at Central
Howell school.
This is 19 bushels per acre higher than the winning yield at last
year's show and is in line with'
the record corn crop now being
harvested throughout the U.S.
Sweepstakes in the 10 ear ex
hibit for yellow hybrid was won
by A. E. Hughes of Woodburn.
His display of hybrid 355 was
very well matured with deep,
flat kernels. Harry Hughes,
Woodburn, who won the sweep
stakes last year, landed in sec
ond place. Third went to an ex
hibit of h y b r i d 100 by James
Hadley, corn breeder of Aurora,
which was commended as un
usually uniform by Rex Warren,
Oregon State college Jarm crops
specialist, who judged the 33 en
tries in the ear contest.
Oregon annually ships in two
to three times as much corn as
is produced here, said Warren in
pointing out that the winning
yield of 86.2 bushels of corn is
' equivalent to 2 tons of barley
per acre.
Average for the top six yields
was just over 73 bushels per
acre, 15 bushels above a similar
average at the 1948 show. Actual
field tonnage is considerably
above these figures. According
to contest rules corn samples
from a measured three acres are
taken to Oregon State college,
tested for moisture, then com
puted back to 15 percent mois
ture, the standard for U.S. No. 2
corn. Field moisture of the en
tries ran from 28.6 percent to
39.9 percent
First place winners were nu
merous in the judging contest
for juniors. Marvin Cage, Gary
Roth, Howard Watts and David
Wohlster tied for top honors.
Jim Kuenzi and Wayne Goode
tied for second; Dick Bye and
Don Bassett tied for third; Cecil
Roth took fourth; Tom Moser
Won fifth and Wayne Steffen,
sixth.

Virile Stephen McNally Is Busy
As Baby Sitter for Own Kids
By VIRGINIA MACPIIERSON
Hollywood, Calif., Nov. 21 UJ Here's a tip to those squealing
bobby-soxers who put Stephen McNally in the top five in a re
cent popularity poll. He has no time for extras, chicks. He's the
town's champ baby-sitter.
And he doesn't even have to go out of his own family to earn
that title. He's got five kids of

Guest for Holidays
Hayesville Mr. and Mrs.
Bruce Willis of Claxter Road

n. a. iatce, returned with them
to spend the Thanksgiving holi
days. .
his own Horace, 8; Rita, 6;
Steve, 4; Patrcia, 2; and Terence,
eight months.
Even when the McNallys are
not between maids and with
five kids, that's aften enough to
be catastrophic his baby-sitting
chores are tremendous. We
found him today on the set of
20th Century-Fox's "No Way
Out."
He was limp and haggard.
"My wife went shopping yes
terday," this virile gent explain
ed. "It was the maid's day off.
I took care of the kids."
And here's his schedule, hour
by hour:
5 a. m. Patty woke up, want
ed her bottle. Pop warmed up
two, one for the baby; changed
Terry's diapers while they were
heating.
5:30 Steve, 4, woke up and
awakened Horace and Rita. Pop
fixed breakfast for them, got
era dressed, and saw the older
ones off to school.
8 Bathed the baby, fed him
again, put him bacK to sleep.
Sent Steve and Patty out to play
8:30 Cooked his own break
fast, didn't have time to eat it.
Patty put a bolt from her toy
fire engine in her mouth. Shook
it out of her. Rushed back to
burning bacon. Settled for coffee-
cake and milk.
9 Washed breakfast dishes
interrupted by Stevie falling off
a 12-foot ladder. Found no bones
broke, swabbed knees with anti
septic and bandages.
12 Made beds, picked up
toys, fed the baby again.
12:30 Fed lunch to Stevie
and Patty, put 'em to bed for a
nap.
3:30 Older kids home from
school, fixed cookies and milk.
Dressed Stevie and Patty, fed
the baby again.
4 Took all five kids for a
walk. Broke up two fights along
the way.
4:30 Baby fell out of car
riage on his head; called the doc
tor frantically; no concussion.
5:30 Kids looked at tele
vision; pop got dinner at sep
arate times for the two eldest;
the baby, end the two in-be
tween. Bathed four of 'em; put
'em to bed.
8 Mom home in time to get his
dinner.
9 Collapsed in bed
"That was a comparatively
eventless day," McNally said.
"When one of the kids gets the
chicken pox or the measles, it's
an epidemic. Takes 10 weeks to
get through the whole family . .
"And you should see our milk
bill . . . and our doctor bills,
tremendous."
But children are his hobby,
McNally says. He expects to have
eight before he's through.
"We can't imagine our home
without a baby. Frankly, I'd
rather support a brood of kids
than a flock of polo ponies or
an expensive swimming pool."
Children Warned by
Head of State Police
H G. Maison, superintendent
of state police, issued a warn
ing Saturday against children
accepting rides in automobiles
with strangers, and asked par
ents to so advise them.
"Children should be warned,"
he said, "never to accept rides
with persons not known to them
personally, no matter what
story may be told them. The
fact that a stranger drives a big
car is certainly no guarantee of
character."
The same advice is good for
adults, Maison said.
