at all. It was )ust the

that these Morrow coun

Where The Fun Starts . . .
1 FV5J5TS!i J
The chutes and anouncers'
stand is the heart of the rodeo.
This is where most of the fun
starts some of it serious fun
and some of it lighter comedy,
especially when a bunch of
embryo buckaroos mounted on
sturdy calves dash out of the
corral gates headed, most like
ly, for an uncharted plot of
ground not far distant. Here,
also, serious-minded cowboys
try their luck at the prize mon
ey on their drawings from the
hard-bucking Tucker horses.
The crowd waits in tense ex
citement for the announcer to
give the results and then turns
to the next number on the program.

Everybody, including the rid
er and the calf, gets a "kick"
out of the calf riding. Any boy
who thinks he can rdie one of
the tough little numbers is giv
en a chance. Sometimes a lad
with a little experience springs
a surprise on the calf and the
crowd, as in the accompanying
picture, but mostly the would
be buckaroos "bite the dust."

Phones In Oregon
Number 300,400
Telephones served by the Paci
fic Telephone and Telegraph
companv in Orecon last week
passed the 300,000 mark.
The unofficial figure for the
itate as of August 1 was 360,400,
including some 11.000 farmer
line telephones served by Pacific
company exchanges.
Gain in Pacific company tele
phones since VJ-Day has been
82.000. In spite of this gain
many times larger than for any
comparable pre-war period the
company still has a backlog of
1S.0O0 unfilled orders in Oregon.
Telephones first were installed
in Oregon at Portland in 1878
70 years ago. The Pacific com
pany reached the first 100,000
mark in telephones in 1920. and
the 200.000 mark in 1943. thus
taking 42 years for the first 100,
000, 23 years for the second 100,
000. and only five years for the
third 100,000.
Independent telephone com
panies in Oregon, according to
the latest estimates, serve ap
proximately 6C.000 telephones.

amazement that the little man
is no longer humble, no longer
worried, no longer wistful. In
fact, he seems to be enjoying
himself immensely and what s
more, he's making statements.
Listen:
"I got very wall acquainted
with Joe Stalin, and I like old
Joe. He is a decent fellow... "
He's writing naive letters:
";. People are very much
wrought up about the Com

the opinion that the country is
perfectly safe so far as Com

Washington, D. C Over three
and a half years ago a little man
of modest mien stood before Con
gress and humbly asked its help
"in completing one of the grav
est tasks ever assigned to a pub
lic servant." Turning to the peo
ple, he wistfully asked them to
pray for him.
After 12 1 2 years of suave as
surances that the situation was
well in hand here was a new
approach! The Republicaa Con
gress fell for it like a ton of
bricks and set to with gusto to
give this little guv every boost
in the book. John Q. rubbed his
eyes in amazement and squinted
down Washington way.
It was entirely beautiful bro
therhood blossomed like roses in
June. America sat contentedly
back. But before John Q. could get
his stocking feet up on the otto
man that little fellow had run
the country through a gauntlet
of trumped-up crises and dragged
it to the very brink of war.
