Traffic Violations High During January It was the first month In a new year, but many Oregon dri vers were up to their same old driving tricks in January. More than 10,000 were con victed of violating the state's traffic laws, according to the Oregon Traffic Safety Commis sion. In addition, 748 drivers had their licenses suspended on of fenses ranging from driving while intoxicated to failure to yield right-of-way. The department of motor vehi cles, through its drivers license division, handed out 183 of the suspension total, 110 to drivers who had accumulated too many accidents or violations to be considered safe risks behind-the-wheel. Other reasons for the suspen sions included: driving while in toxicated, 281; reckless driving, 64; violation of basic rule, 48; hit and run, 13; failure to report an accident, 40; and failure to stop, 5. Ninety-five of the suspensions amounted to extensions of previ ous "no driving" orders when drivers were caught operating on an already suspended license. C. A.

Dear Sir: Being an old Heppnerite, it oc curs to me that you and your readers would welcome a story, "Heppner Boy Makes Good." I am referring to James G. Barratt, son of your prominent Garnet Barratt. As Athletic Business Manager at Oregon State College, Jim is the direct executive assistant to the direc tor of athletics, and what a terrific job Jim is doing. Few people really have an ac curate conception of the enorm ous planning and work that is in cumbent upon Jim Barratt, and usually under terrific pressure. Some day Jim is ambitious to invent a football field having nothing but 50-yard line seats. Such a Utopia would really re lieve Jim Barratt. Jim has developed terrifically in all respects. Perhaps his big gest single attribute is his un canny ability to retain his poise and smiling good nature during times of stress, such as just pre liminary to a big game. Lets take a look at Jim Bar ratt incidental to Oregon State College's recent Rose Bowl game. All that' Jim's department had to do was to arrange satisfactory rooming, at a time when rooms were practically unavailable, for about two hundred people, in cluding team, band and staff and wives. He had to organize and look after the proper training table facilities at the California hotel. A few dozen chartered busses down there had to be ne gotiated. A few large chartered airplanes were arranged. 100,000 tickets' at $5.50 each were printed and promptly sold and distribu ted, with many hundreds of Tough jobs fclrT demand lggJniversal 'Jeep' Traction. 4-wheel drive gives the extra trac tion for traveling up steep grades or broken ground. The 'Jeep' is built to stand up and take it in tough usage. Hydraulic lift. With hydraulic lift, the 4-wheel drive 'Jeep' operates graders, scrapers, post hole diggers and most 3-point hitch implements. DOG IPay checks returned due to space limitations and Jim doesn't like to return checks: Of course it was necessary that Oregon State set up a Pasadena headquarters well In adance of the game, and what a madhouse this was when you consider the pressure for tickets and the pres ure from perhaps one hundred or more of the "gentlemen" of the press, which is a flattering appellation to apply to some of those Southern California sports writers. On and on, ad infinitum, the work rolls on, and happy and capable Jim Barratt seems never flustered or fustrated. His poten tial future is terrific. Jim is extremely fortunate in having for his big boss that out standingly capable and under standing Roy S. "Spec" Keene. Spec has accomplished wonders in encouraging and developing Jim into his present stature and ability. Yes, all of Morrow county may take pride in saying, "I know Jim Barratt." Jim is so popular that I believe he could be elected to just about any office to which he might aspire, even though his opponent might be a Democrat. Maurice E. Smead, Superintendent of Agencies, Capitol Life Ins. Co. Portland. Mr. and Mrs. Laurence Becket left Tuesday for a short trip to Portland.

WHEAT LEAGUE ECONOMIST visits "Live Better Electrically" show. Need of the average American household for adequate wiring and enough circuits to serve the electrical conveniences and comforts preferred by today's busy families highlighted a display of residential switch panels that drew the attention of Miss Naida Whybark, home economist for the Oregon Wheat Lea gue, during a "Live Better Electrically" program in Portland.
