the hoop sport has come any
where near drawing as many
fans as Abe Sapersteln's magic

many years. They have set the
highest attendance mark for bas
ketball in most of the 50 count

their Pendleton appearance drew
a sellout crowd of 2,000.

Record Construction
Program Now Being
Carried on by PP&L
Pacific Power & light company's
record breaking 1957 construction
program required the investment
of $56,000,000, the largest amount
of new capital of any year in the
company's history, it was report
ed Monday.
Further expansion of system-(
wide customer service facilities'
and the completion of generating:
plants now being built wil ro-1
quire another record outlay of.
capital funds during 1958, PP&L
president Paul B McKee report-j
ed in a year-end summary of the
company's activities. j
Since 1950 Pacific has expended,
over $170,000,000 in construction j
to help meet area needs, Includ- j
ing a half-million-kilowatt power
plant program, McKee said.
"During the year now closing
Pacific invested $50,000,000 in new
generating plant construction,
transmission lines and distribu
tion fec.'-ities." McKee reported.
"And in 1958 it is expected that
a larger amount will be expended
to complete projects now under
way and to maintain the rate of
expansion required by area
growth ."
Major phases of PP&L's pro
gram are the 250,000-kilowatt
Swift hydroelectric project in
southwest Washington, which !
was half completed in December;
work of installing a third 45,000-
kilowatt generating unit at the-'
Mcrwin plant on the Lewis river;
and the 100,000-kilowatt Dave
Johnston steam-electric plant In
Wyoming which will use coal
from deposits PP&L is developing
in that state.
Under permits of the Federal
Power Commission, hydroelectric
studies were directed at sites on
the north fork of the Coquille-
river in soutnwest Uregon ana
the Meadows area of the upper
Lewis river. PF&L has a license
pending before FPC to build the
110,000-kilowatt muddy project
upstream from its other three
Lewis river developments.
Together with three neighbor
ing utilities of the Northwest,
Pacific hopes to start canstruction
In 1958 on the $210,000,000 Pleas
ant Valley-Mountain Sheep pro
ject on the Snake river for which
an FPC license is also pending.
The proposal would have an ul
timate generating capability of
1,416,000 kilowatts.
The possibilities of utilizing
coal are also being Investigated
in Oregon and in Washington.
Near Chehalls, Wash PP&L and
Washington Power are exploring
seams that might be useful In the
future, ond in Coos county Ore
gon, the company is studying the
prospects at Eden ridge for a
nine-mouth power plant of 100,
()()() kilowatt or larger capacity.

The followlnf It condensa
tion of a motorloj; appearing
la The Sunday Oregonlan. It
U one of an annual terlei of
travel itorlee sponsored jointly
by the Oregon State Motor as
sociation and The Oregonlan.
BY HERBERT L. LARSON
SUfl Writer, The Oregonlan
U. S, highway 97, which cuts
through Oregon from The Dalles
on the north to Klamath Falls on
the south, has been dubbed by
one travel expert as the road
with 97 varieties of. vacation fun.
We found that out on a recent
Oregon State Motor association
motorlog down the length of the
artery. We also discovered that
if you want to enjoy 97 varieties
plus of vacation enjoyment you
should Include the triangle side
trip from Lapine to Lakeview
and back to Klamath Falls, via
highways 31 and 66.
We came into Lakeview (4800
feet above sea level and 14 miles
from the California border).
We came into Lakeview after
an overnight stop at East lake
and a visit to Paulina lake. A
left turn off 97 was made sev
eral miles south of Lapine onto
highway 31. Keep in mind 31
This is one of the prettiest and
non-commercial paved drives of
about 150 miles that we ever
enjoyed. Traffic Is light and
about all you have to worry
about on the road are deer, eat'
tie and a few horses crossing
or visiting on the forest-border
ed boulevard.
Highway 31 becomes 395 a
short spell north of Lakeview.
We were told that this Is a fast
route from Portland to Reno,
Los Angeles and San Diego via
The Dalles, Bend, Lakeview and
Alturas. This we believe.
Lakes Come Back
About midway between La
pine and Lakeview on 31 is a
small community called Silver
Lake. A few miles south and
east Is Silver lake itself, skirt
ed by the highway. And therein
lies an Interesting story about
the lakes of this region.
In Lakeview we learned from
Zane Gray (county clerk of
Lakec ounty and no relation to
the novelist) that years ago
there was plenty of water in the
lakes thereabouts. Homestead-

from the valley floor. Abert lake Is north of this viewpoint.
ers came and prospered. The
town of Silver Lake was then a
busy place. In the early 1930s
6iiver lake and adjacent Sum
mer lake dried up and stayed
years ago, when water started
to return.
On this trip we found Silver
lake doing well. So much water
has returned to the lake bed
that the highway grade was
raised some eight feeti n one
stretch to keep cars on dry
land. The work was still in
progress as we passed. Why
has the water returned? Be
cause of heavy rains ani run
off according to the explnna
tion given us.
Skirting the eastern boundary
of Fremont national forest,
Summer lake comes into view
shortly after you leave Silver.
Here again is a goodly body
of water which the highway
borders for nearly ten miles.
In Lake county geological
remnants of thei ce age can be
found close to thel atest lava
flows. Of great geological in
terest is Abert rim along the
east side of Abert lake. Here
is the largest exposed geological
faultl n North America. It
rises 2000 feet above the lake-
shore.
Young Julian Henubn Jr.,
Lake county district attorney,
took time out to tell us of the
vast primitive country iround
Lakeview where streams and
lakes offer excellent fishing and
the hills and valleys abound
with game.
Lookout rolnt Visited
With Herndon at the wheel
of his car we climbed along a
winding private logging road to
them ost spectacular lookout
point experienced on the entire
trip. Atop Black Cap rim, 7500
feet above Lakeview, Warner
valley is a checkerboard with
its ranches, farms, lakes and
mountain backgrounds.
From this perch one can see
Goose lake and the California
border 14 miles to the south.
The northern tip of this size
able body of water liesi n Ore
gon. There are other easily ac
cessible viewpoints, too, near
Lakeview.
Boundaries of Lake county
surround more than scenery,
hunting and fishing areas. For
ests support four sawmills, two
box factories, two planing mills
and a moulding plant. Most of
the timber Is now being cut on
a sustained yield basis. The re
gion is rich in mineral deposits
and uranium deposit is being
worked.
Just north of town on 395 at
Hunters lodge and hot springs
is what we were told is the only
continuous spouting geyser in
America. It shoots wa'er of 200
degrees heat 60 feet in the air.
Homes and buildings nearby are
heated from this source.
Area's Hunting Good
For winter sports there is the
Warner valley ski area ten
miles from the city center with
its 1600-foot electrically-operated
ski tow.
In the hunting department
we learned more than 10,000
mule deer are harvested each
year and some 35,(X)U water
fowl.
The folks down that way are
mi'mty hospitable, they Know
theii country is big, varied and
wonderful area for iuture de-
ve'op'nents and opportunities
It is a great outdoor country
and even during a snort visit
you get thef eel that here Is the
