Closing of Races Because of
Fog Is Issue Before Board
By WILLIAM WARREN
i United Presi Correspondent)
The theme song of this might
be: Crazy over horses, horses,
horses.
A small group of horse owners
is reported to be attempting to put
Cecil Edwards, racing steward for
the State Racing Commission in
the dog house. A metaphor that is
not too inappropriate inasmuch as
Edwards also presides as steward
when the Multnomah Kennel club
holds its dog races.
Complaints against Edwards
have not been made in writing as
yet, but in an oral petition to Gov.
Paul L. Patterson the man who
appoints the commissioners and
who is responsible for the com
missionEdwards has been repre-
Garden Road Church
Starting Commissary
The Garden Road Christian
church is starting a commissary
of supplies to meet any need here
and elsewhere. Just now a call is
being made for clean, used cloth
ing, all types and sizes. It may be
delivered at the church, 4085 Mar

be obtained by dialing 4-6453.
PROFOUND ANSWER
OKLAHOMA CITY tfi-A fourth
grader raised his hand to tell Mrs.
Ruth Clark, Rancho Village teach
er, exactly what an atom is.
"That's what you mine from
geranium," he explained.
sented as "tyranieal and arbi
trary."
Cited as an instance of this is
the fact that Edwards ordered the
races closed midway of a program
the last night of racing at Port
land .Meadows last Oct. 10
because of fog and unsafe condi
tions. Five stewards concurred in
the necessity of closing, but Ed
wards says he is willing to accept
the entire responsibility for the
decision.
One horse owner said the deci
sion cost him "thousands of dol
lars." The race probably referred
to was the $5000 futurity. Edwards
says the race involved two year
olds "the wild babies of racing"
and the reason he stopped the pro
gram was he was afraid that eith
er horses or jockeys or both would
be hurt. The jockeys did not want
to race.
The last race that was run found
two riders goiig to the outside
fence. The camera was not able
to pierce the fog accurately to
depict the winners. The judges, in
cluding Edwards, were standing
on the track to call the finish. No
one including the announcer could
really sec the running of the race.
And since the law so contemplates
that races should be observed and
supervised, Edwards says he rea
soned it was high time to call a
halt.
Those wlio champion Edwards
say they admire him because of
his thorough knowledge of horses.
Edwards is convinced that the
real start of the trouble goes
back to the 1953 Legislature
when a group of breeders sought
legislation to increase the num
ber of days of racing from 100
to 106 as the maximum for any
county, fairs excepted. Edwards
then was a member of the Board
of Directors ot the Breeders
Association and opposed the add
ed days. He reasoned that in
earlier days more than 100 days
were permissible.
Edwards says that as long as
he is racing steward he will try
to keep on aiming at the objec
tive of the sport of kings the
improvement of the breed.

Lumber Cargo
Goes to Korea
WASHINGTON Ml Sen. Cor
don (R-Ore) says It has been
agreed that nearly half a proposed
21 million board feet lumber ship
ment for Korea will be purchased
in the United States.
The 21,278,000 board foot order
is to be used for reconstruction
and rehabilitation work in' Korea.
Cordon aides said initial plans
called for the lumber to be pur
chased without restriction on its
source. But discussions with the
military, they said, have resulted
in agreement that at least 9,074,.
000 board feet will be purchased
in the United States.
This portion of the shipment has
been taken from present Army
stocks and is to be replaced.
Efforts are under way, they
said, to place the same restriction
on the remaining 12,204,000 board
feet.
PRISON GOES MODERN
INDIANAPOLIS (UP) Pri
soners at Indiana State Peniten
tiary at Michigan City have been
placed on an eight-hour day and
a five-day week.
Officials said prisoners could
devote Saturday and Sundays to
"education, baths and haircuts."
From Hawaii:
Just returned from town and
was nearly caught in a terrific
tropical downpour. Water is
over the curb here at our cor
ner, the drains can't carry it
away fast enough; ali in a half
hour! It's still thundering as
the rain clouds come down the
mountains but the sun is shin
ing as it sinks into the ocean.
We're loving every minute
of our stay, and beginning to
boast a fairly decent tan. The
beach where we swim is won
derful. The water has been
about 74 degrees every time
we've been in! It's ' terribly
hard to tear ourselves away to
go sightseeing.
Were fortunate to have
friends here. They've extend
ed true Hawaiian hospitality.
The other day they drove us
around this island. Oahu. Past
; rearl Harbor, through the
! largest pineapple fields, and on
l around the north side via the
jvamunamena nignway wnicn
circles the island. The break
ers on the rocky and coral
reefed northerly side reminded
me of our breakers on the Ore
gon coast, but broken by quiet
bays where swimming and
fishing were possible. We en
joyed a picnic lunch on trie
sand at Kewela Bay, where we
watched little dark youngsters
hunt for interesting marine life
among the rocks and coral and
also fishermen casting out
their lines for surf fishing. A
beautiful sight against the blue
ot the bay, palm trees swaying
in the breeze. Passed by fish
ing nets drying in the sun,
where they have "hukilaus"'
for the fishing village and
tourists alike, fish and poi
feasts after the catch.
Most intriguing to me was
the garden club tour open to
visitors last Friday. Four dif
ferent homes are opened twice
each month. Like a postman
on a holiday, I wouldn't have
missed this opportunity for
anything! Each home on this
tour was on Diamond Head and
had been designed for island
living. A combination of out
door and indoor living that is
thoroughly delightful. One
new home was planned with a
central lanai which overlooked
the beautifully landscaped gar
dens and on to Waikiki Beach
and the blue ocean. The lanai
was outdoor living space, gar
den room, party room (with
bar), entrance hall and pass
hall! The front door opened
onto this lanai. with the din
ing room 'and kitchen area
forming one wing, and the
large living room and bed
rooms forming a completely
separate wing.
The picture windows in the
living room were installed with
shutters while the french
doors to the lanai and to the
bedroom walk were curtained
with patterned drapery fabric,
contributing to the overall
airy and open feeling. ,
It was interesting to note
the use of white walls and
woodwork. All four homes
were in white, with much of
the upholstery in white also.
It was obvious that white made
everything look fresh and cool,
and a perfect contrast to the
lush greenery and brilliant
flora hues everywhere.
Each home shown had treas
ures from the Far East. Beau
tiful teokwood tables, and
pearl inlaid pieces that made
me sigh. Lovely Chinese
screens and hangings, priceless
imports which were given
proper importance against the
simple background of white
coral brick or panelling.
The gardens and courts
were fabulous and breathtak
ing bursts of bouganvillia, hib
iscus, spider lily, and on and
on, against the luscious back
drop of foliage. It's hard to
describe.
One more week and I'll be
back in my old stamping
ground, renewed in spirit and
enthusiasm. Right now I hate
to think of leaving this garden
spot in the Pacific, but when
the time comes, I know I'll be
glad to be home.
