Joe's lonely liramltnoiher, Sally Buck, and Joe's great and true friend, the' lonely, petty, street criminal, liatso Kicco, are memorable characters. The film and TV versions of this novel cut out Sally Buck, along with many of the raw sexual episodes pictured in the Ixiok. Mrs Weaihei ford feels that although parts of the novel are repulsive lo many readers, this story is worth reading because il is an unusual study of a lonely undereducated, .uninspired drifter.

Hermiston, 1972 Commercial Cattle Feeder of the Year, is launching his own program of self-help to the economic-stricken cattle in dustry. For more than six years his company. C & B Livestock. Inc., has been involved in one of the most extensive beef Improvement programs any where in the nation. This week Baker announced their first Beef Performance Profits Field Day to be held on June 21 at the new Beef Improvement Center located three miles south of Hermis ton. Baker cited the need for close cooeralion between cattle producers and feeders in order lo produce both feeder cattle and fed cattle that meet both the L'SDA grade and culabilily specifi cations of today's beef mar ket. Tim Tipiiett. manager of the beef improvement division, points mil that the greatest opirtunilv lo improve effi ciency and pave the road back to profits is to exploit the genetic material now avail able from improved sires of ' both domestic and European breeds. The breeding results on eight major beef breeds using inn different sires over six y ears w ill be a highlight of the field day program. "We are now feeding some newer combinations in cross bred sleet s which are improv ing our feeding efficiency and can-ass culabilily," com ments Jay Wheelhotise, feed yard manager lie observes that utilization of these results can put mote dollars in both the producer's and feeder's pockets. Conclusions drawn by lead ing cattle producers, meat packers, and bankers will climax the day 's program. ( oiliest rules: 1. This is a family fun siniest.
