Dallas Youth
Marble Champ
Dallas "A two time win
ner is better than a three time
loser," says Jerry Lanlg, Dallas
Junior High School student and
new state marble champion.
Jerry, the state champ of two
years ago, regained his title
Saturday in the state marble
tournament at Jantzen Beach,
In Portland, Oregon. To win
top place he defeated the run
ner up, a lad who has been
Portland city champion three
times.
Some 183 boys from 5 dif
ferent towns in Oregon were on
hand to compete in the tourna
ment, which is sponsored by
the Veterans of Foreign wars.
Dallas entrants in the state
tournament were Lanlg, and
Jimmy Mabry In the B division
for boys IS and older; and Mer
lin e Fast and Gordon Hanson
in the A division, for boys 12
and under. Mabry and Hanson
were eliminated in their rounds
of play, while Fast went to
sixth place in the consolation
series.
Following the tournament all
contestants, escorts, and other I
persons involved in the event
went to a presentation dinner
at the Portland Meadows where
prizes were given the winners.
As champion, young Jerry re
ceived a bicycle, a trophy, and
(says Jerry) best of all, a large
triumphal cake. Jerry says the
bike came just In time, because
the one he won two years ago
is Just about worn out.
Jerry, and the runner-up,
now may participate in the na
tional tournament which this
year, for the first time, will be
held in Portland later in the
spring.
Accompanying the boys to
the tournament' were Mr. and
Mrs. Almos LeFors, the Dallas
chairman for the tournament,
and Mr. and Mrs. Gary Hanson,
the parents of Gordon.

vudlmir Nabokov, professor
on leave of absence from tor
veil University, writer and en
tomologist wants to come to
Oim for the summer, but is
a little soorehensive about Ore
gon wildlife as It might relate
to a place of resiaencc.
At present Mr. Nabokov is
in Portal, Arts.- He specifies
Us reaulrements for a summer
home in a letter to a local ag
ency, and a letter has been sent
in reply assuring him that Ore
gon is both sale ana pieasanv
especially around Salem. ,
"Could you suggest two or
three places with nvld climate,
not in a town, but also not out
in the wilderness, where
mla-ht be able to rent a small
bouse or cottage for three, (my
wife, my son and me) for the
summer" he inquires. I am
thinking of a house with mod'
era conveniences, such as elec
tricity, gas, etc.
'Besides being a college pro
fessor and a writer, I am also
an entomologist nd would like
to do some collecting. My wife,
on the other hand, would pre
fer the region to be free of
such big game as cougars and
not to contain more than the
inevitable number 'of bears."
Replying, David Nelson, rep
resenting Frank Lockman, real
estate operator, ssys:
Without any prejudice on
my part, the most, beautuui
country in the world surrounds
Salem, Oregon . . . Several
places would be suitable for
your work and they lie mostly
In the foothill sections to the
esst and west of Saleir ... We
will endeavor to situate you in
the desired environment . . .
' I have lived in this area 28
years and have never seen a
cougar. , Bears are friendly in
the west and the last Indian
raid was In Southern Oregon in
1190 when Indian Jack holed
up in the lava beds with the
last of his tribe and shot it out
with the local gendarme. Wild
flowers abound In Oregon and
eastern Oregon has a monopoly
on the sheep market . . We are
looking forward to meeting you
and your family and will en
deavor to find suitable housing
for your needs."
