Today in Salem
Governor Holmes and mem
ber! of the Legislature are tak
ing a share of the credit for the
Portland Beavers snapping their
nine-game losing streak Tuesday
night.
The group attended the game
in which the Beavers beat Sac
ramento 6-4.
Those taking credit had better
start attending more games. It
' was the third win for the Beav
ers in 19 games.
Maybe the Legislature could
nap the bad luck streak com
pletely if It would pull that reso
lution wishing the Beavers good
luck out of the Fish and Game
Committee where it was buried
a couple of weeks ago.
Anyone interested in entering
one of the Seattle Seafair parades
next August 3 to 10?
In the mail comes an official
entry form for a float, band,
marching unit, drum and bugle
corps or mounted unit (horse or
wheel) for one or more of the
eight parades during the event.
Brochure tells all the advantages
of entering a unit in the parade
(publicity for the sponsor, etc.).
Brochure cover says, "We're in
viting all America to Seattle's 1957
Seafair," I doubt that all will be
there.

ichool seniors from around the
state were guests for social events
and showing of the college.
Part of the bait was series of

The amorous adventures of Don
Juan will be brought to life Thurs
day and Friday evenings at 8:15
p.m. when the Willamette Univer

The play follows the legend of

George Nelson, senior drama

lady to the next throughout the

gliding back and forth across the
stage.
Various theatrical effects have

among them being an old cloud
making machine, a picture-frame
setting, and the construction of a
fiery inferno.
Costuming, staging, and acting
mannerisms from various eras of
the theatre will be used in the
comedy-drama, as an experiment
in theatre, according to director
Robert Putnam.

City to Purchase
Additional Acres
For Wa llace Park
Purchase by the city of an additional 6.32 acres of Wil-
lamette lagoon property to become part of Wallace Marine
Park was assured Wednesday when the City Council in a
telephone vote approved payment of earnest money on the
deal.
The land, being purchased from
Mr. and Mrs. William Nelson, is
a 3000-foot strip bordering the
river on the west side. The pur
chase price is $4103, and the
transaction as it now stands obli
gates the city to buy another 1000
feet.
Adjoins Present Park
The newly-nurchased B-ound.
adjoining the present park area on
the north end, gives the city own
ership of the entire lagoon. On
the property, and to be built this
summer, will be a second landing
ramp for motorboats and it is ex
pected to facilitate greatly activi
ties on the river for occasions
like the Willamette River Days
celebration.
A donation of $1000 made by the
Salem Junior Woman's Club for
the purpose will be used to build
me ramp.
At the low water season the la
goon area is separated from the
river, but included in the park
development plan, according to
Walter Wirth, park superinten
dent, a channel will be cut to give
access to the river at all times.
24 Acres Added
The new purchase makes an
addition of about 24 acres to the
park since the city acquired the
original Wallace Park site by be
quest in the will of the late Paul
B. Wallace, who left it to the city
for park development. This was
a frontage of 2400 feet extending
under the Center Street bridge.
Last year an additional seven
acres was purchased from the
estate of Walter Musgrave. An
other five acres was bought from
Carl Staats. Then Slants gave the
city six acres more in exchange
for an casement.

Budget Reason 1
Growing enrollments in the pub

operation. That is the basic rea
son why the Salem District budget
keeps going up, said Supt. Charles
Schmidt while addressing the Sa

at the Marion.
In this connection the superin
tendent pointed out that 12 years
ago enrollment was approximately
5,000. Since then it has increased
to 12,800 pupils in 34 buildings.
Twenty-five hundred of the in
crease was the result of consoli
dation. All the rest can be credited
to the growth within the original
district.
Schmidt, said that the 6-mill

the voters several years ago has ,
been a "life saver" , in keeping
