Officers of EOWL
Become "Actors"
On KOAC Program
Farm radio broadcasting history
was made in Corvallis recently
when a group of eastern Oregon far
mers traveled half way across the
state for the specific purpose of ap
pearing on a program over the state-
owned station KOAC at Corvallis.
The men were officers of the East
ern Oregon Wheat league, includ
ing Harry D. Proudfoot of Wasco,
president; Carroll Barker of Con
don, vice president; and Millard
Eakin of Grass Valley, member of
the executive committee. These three
farmers together with Charlie Smith,
secretary of the leage, took part in
one of the nightly round table dis
cussions on the Oregon State col
lege hour.
The men not only discussed the
work of the Eastern Oregon Wheat
league in particular but the general
farm problems, including land use,
that are of major importance in the
Columbia basin wheat belt.
The Eastern Oregon Wheat league
since its organization in 1926 has
been in the forefront of every move
ment for the betterment of farm
conditions in this region, the officers
told the radio audience. The league
has not onlv interested itself in pub
lie matters and legislation, but has
also actively supported agricultural
research and has encouraged the
adoption of approved methods of
nroduction designed to keep Ore
gon wheat growers in a favorable
competitive position.
Recent changes in farming prac
tice reviewed by the wheat league
officers included the introduction
nf crested wheat grass on a large
scale and the widespread use of
trashy summer fallow as a means
of minimizing erosion
Mrs. Lois Turner returned the end
of the week from a visit with her
parents, Mr. and Mrs. Martin Reid,
at Lincoln Beach on the coast

WHO 6AMBIES HIS lift FOR A LONE BliTTtRf LY.

WHO GAMBLES HIS LIFE FOR A MERE RIGHT-OF-WAY
--National Safety Council
Gambling one's life and property
on the right-of-way at an intersec
tion is like gambling against a crook
ed roulette wheel one may win a
few seconds now and then, but the
losses, when they occur, will be ex
traordinarily heavy, Secretary of
State Earl Snell said this week.
Failure to give right of way con
tributed to more traffic crashes than
any other improper driving action
in this state last year, figuring in
9113 cases. Fifteen of these accidents
resulted fatally, and more than 1000
of them produced injuries.
Designed largely to determine
which party was in the right follow
ing collisions at intersections, the
right-of-way law itself is of little
benefit in preventing accidents when
drivers insist on taking advantage
of their right-of-way privilege at
every opportunity in Snell's opin
ion. Briefly states, the car approach
ing from the right has the right-of-way
at an ordinary intersection,
while a car stopped at a through
street must yield the right-of-way
to all other traffic approaching so
closely as to constitute an imme
diate hazard. Cars traveling at un
lawful speed forfeit whatever right-of-way
they might otherwise have
had.
Round-Table Talks
Listed for April 24-29
Oregon State College "How the
1939 Agricultural Conservation Pro
gram is Being Applied to Oregon
Farms," will be the opening round

day, April 24. Taking part in the
discussion will be members of the
state AAA committee headed by Will
Steen of Milton, chairman.
Scheduled each evening except
Sunday at 9 o'clock these round ta
ble discussions are proving increas
ingly popular throughout the state.
Other topics for the week are as
follows:
Tuesday, "Some Kind words for
Slang," by the department of Eng
lish; Wednesday, "What Husbands
Should Know About Nutrition,"

tion," school of engineering; Sat

letics," by the department of inter
