Stamp collectors all over Am er. ica have sent letters to the race com m ittee so that they may be carried on this most unusual postal trip. As the modem pony express is a civic venture sponsored by Timber- line lodge and the Oswego hunt club near Portland no charge is being made for arranging to have letters taken over the run. Collectors need only write to Myron McCamley, 2135 N. Albert, Portland, Oregon enclos ing a self-addressed envelope bearing a three cent stamp. Five cowboy riding teams from Or* gon and southern Washngton have entered the race. Each team consists o f seven horses and seven riders who w ill relay the mail sacks on the run at points ten miles apart. Included in the entries are the sh eriff’s moun ted posse o f Klickttai county, Wash.) and Clackamas county, Oregon. Sher. i f f ’s C. G. House and Fred Reakseck- er w ill ride the last lap fo r their respective teams. Western saddles and cowboy rid ing equipment are required and as the route used back tracks almost ex actly the original overland route from the middle west into the Ore gon country spectators w ill find it easy to imagine themselves watching the transfer o f "fa st mails” o f a cen* tury ago. ■ *
