It will be sold at a spe cial auction during the second day of the event. Nearly 100 more sheep are be ing sent to this year's sale by valley breeders than went last year.

Klamath Falls, three HamDshire rams: D. D. Liskey Klamath Falls, five Suffolk rams; and John V. Withers, Pais ley, six Rambouillet rams. Two Imported English rams Suffolk and a Hampshire, are being offered. They were select ed by Howard Vaughn, past pre sident of the National Wool Growers during his visit to the British Royal Agricultural show In England last summer. California range sheepmen specialize in early lamb produc tion, consequently the Sacramen to event Is first of a series of sales held each year in the west. Another California sale to which many Willamette valley ram pro ducerf send stock is at Dixon on Many 14. The Willamette Val ley Ram Sale is set for August 4 at Albany. At Pendleton the Oregon Ram Sale is scheduled for August 17. Oldest ram sale In America is the National Ram Sale, Salt Lake City, to be held this year on August zo ana zi Oregon sheep were among the top selling animals at last year's Sacramento sale when the rec ord high average of $157.24 on 1265 rams and 105 ewes was made. This year the list has been Increased to 1735 rams and 349 ewes in view of greater need for range rams and to prevent "runaway" prices which might be a deterent to bidding by range operators. Both lambs and wool are being marketed at ex tremely high prices and this op ening sale of the year will be carefully watched by the sheep industry. "Public Enemy No. 1" Dayton Mesdames L. Phelps, Charles Hagen. W. W. White head. Sr.. and Frank Foster at tended the show, "Public Enemy No. 1" at the Methodist church in McMinnville. Friday after Doc Quigg Races Mac Across Nation and Wins By H. D. QUIGG Washington, April 21 U We raced General MacArthur across the country. And we won. We started from San Francisco 29 minutes after he took off. We arrived at Washington national airport 32 minutes before he did. "Operation Catch-up" was a complete success. Twenty newspaper men want ed to see the general bid fare well to San Francisco, They also wanted to see him say hello to Washington. So American Air lines arranged for a special flight of one of its new four engine DS-6BS, a plane with 1,200 more horsepower than its DC-6. Both planes flew from coast- to-coast non-stop. The reporters made it in seven hours and six minutes. We didn't set a com mercial plane record, but it was a mighty fast way to get from San Francisco to Washington. We climbed up to 21,000 feet, consuming 420 gallons of gaso line an hour. MacArthur's pilot, Lt. Col. Tony Story, kept the Constellation Bataan at 19,000. We zipped over Lake Tahoe, and at Reno we wfere only 28 min utes behind. We passed swiftly over the rugged Sierras, and a reporter said: 'Think of going over those in a covered wagon with the In dians sniping at you." Over Ogden, Utah, William H. Dunn, Glen Head, N. Y., super intendent of flying for Ameri can, got on the loudspeaker sys tem and said: "Well, folks, the MacArthur special passed here only 15 minutes ago," We picked up a 90-mile tail- wind and winged over Rock Springs, Wyo.; only 13 minutes behind. We were doing 415 miles an hour over the ground. Over the buttes of Wyoming, and the moon was pale and high in front of us, the sun bright and low behind us. Approach ing the Continental divide, the mountain stream beds and their tributaries looked, at 21,000 feet, like long, branching ferns. It was 30 degrees below zero outside the plane. We were pour ing on the coal. At Cheyenne, we were 11 minutes behind, Over the flatlands of Ne braska at 7:30 p.m., CST, and the moon was higher, brighter, yellower. At North Platte we were eight minutes behind; at Omaha, seven. At 8:20 p.m., CST, over Oma ha, the moon was high over head and glistening on our wings. The small towns spread their lights below like glowing stellar Constellations. The moon was bright enough so that we could see the patchwork-quilt of farms below. We caught the Bataan some where over Illinois and passed it just south of Chicago. Then we began barreling downhill to Washington, coming down at 500 feet a minute through an overcast. We hit the National airport runway "Jump at the dead hour" (Shakespeare) of midnight. San Francisco was 2,593 miles away. Then we stoor around 32 min utes and waited for MacArthur.
