The Oregon Trail
Relived at Eugene
Eugene, June 31. All the gay
color, vivid excitement, and stirring
drama of the great pioneer West is
being relived in a twentieth century
atmosphere as the citizens of Lane
county adopt the colorful clothes
and quaint customs of our forefath
ers in preparation for the fourth
Oregon Trail pageant celebration to
be held in Eugene on July 22, 23
and 24.
Beards flourish, men have donned
picturesque pioneer costumes bea
ver hats, boots, red shirts; women
are wearing calico gowns and bon
nets, as the whole community lives
again the exciting days of 1843.
The entire state is "chaining up"
with the spirit of the Oregon pioneer
in an effort to make the pageant at
tract wor?d-wide attention. Evidence
that it is already internationally fa
mous was revealed in a letter to
pageant headquarters from Ro
land G. Wild, who stated that he will
cover the celebration for The Peo
ple, Odhams Press, of London, Eng
land a publication of over three
million circulation.
Plans are now under way for the
selection of Queen Susannah IV,
who will rule over the pageant. The
queen will be selected by the mayors
of Lane county's cities at a celebra
tion in Eugene on July 10.
Entries are being received from
all parts of the state in the contest to
choose a baby queen who will share
regal duties at the celebration with
Queen Susannah. Descendants of
Oregon's early settlers in any part
of the state, between the ages of five
and seven years, are eligible for the
contest.
Nearly every large city in Oregon
will be visited within the next three
weeks by a 20-man junior chamber
of commerce drill team dressed in
authentic pioneer garb and will re
ceive a special invitation to partici
pate in the state of Oregon's greatest
epic of the West.

campus. It was decided to use ev
ery effort to cooperate with other
poultry organizations to further the
welfare of the entire industry.

coast and northwestern states to
gether on a program of regional
poultry research which would qual
ify for assistance from the depart
ment of agriculture under the Jones-
Bankhead act. Oregon delegates to
the International Baby Chick con
vention in Baltimore plan to go to
Washington to urge the granting of
such research assistance.
The Oregon group also endorsed
the move to have the poultry work
in the department of agriculture cen
tralized in a separate bureau.

ed to succeed Lloyd Lee of Salem,
who had served two years. Fred
Cockell of Milwaukie and L. E. Cabe

president and secretary respectively.

their usual surroundings or home
town, says the Oregon State Motor
association, and of the accidents in
which these 283 drivers were in
