Allen Dean of the University of Oregon School of Journalism Oberammergau, Bavaria—It seems like Oregon again to be among high mountains. Oberammergau is a lum ber town, almost exactly the same size as Cottage Grove, and I am pounding the typewriter out of doors in the pleasant courtyard of our host. Anton Lang, who in three successive Passion Plays took the part of the Christus. Mr Lang is finishing up some necessary letters, after which he wants to show me through his pottery shop. “Oberammergau,” translated into Western American diction, means “the upper Ammer country.” The stream we have been following into the lovely Alps, is the Ammer. This is the most mountainous part of Ger many. The highest peak in the Reich, the Zugspitze, 9,000 feet, is only a few miles away. Higher Alps lie just across the border in Austria and Switzerland. How does Oberammergau compare with Cottage Grove? Both towns are progressive, and the people think well of themselves, but the cities arej very different to the eye. Both, places have wide well paved streets,: but Cottage Grove streets are all1 straight, while few Oberammergou streets can stay straight for more than a hundred yards or so, being in- 1 terrupted by fine old peasant-style buildings located according to the builders’ fancy centuries before traf fic became a problem. These houses are very large, and from the wide Swiss eaves downward are covered in stucco of pleasant pastel tints, and often elaborately painted with pic-, tures of rustic or religious scenes In vu full color. 1 appearance that is far more linpres- sonal occupation and keeps people Haynes Motor Co.
