"Many of the candies can be over 50 percent sugar. Most kids can not escape cavities and deleterious health effects by eating this type of junk," said Shearer. Those treats people should particularly avoid, said Shearer, are sweet sticky snacks, hard candies, sugar containing breath mints and cough drops and sticky dried fruit, such as raisins.

The maps show the areas on the Umatilla National Forest where motor vehicle travel is completely prohibited or re stricted. Some area closures are year-long and some are seasonal. In some areas vehicles like motorbikes and snowmobiles are allowed, but cars, pickups and trucks are not allowed. All roads, trails, and cross country areas within most of the closed areas are off-limits to motor vehicle travel except in certain areas where, this travel is allowed on designat 1980 overnight camping season ends November 3 . The 1980 overnight camping season in most Oregon State Parks will end Monday, Nov. 3. Steve Johansen, operations planner for State Parks, said the camping season usually -extends from' May through October, but weather is often accountable for a variation in closing dates. That's partic- ularly true in the high altitudes of Central and East ern Oregon where cold weath er could make an earlier closing date necessary, he said. One exception to the Nov. 3 closing date will be Detroit Lake State Park, east of Salem, where the campground will remain open until Dec. 1. In addition, the following 11 state parks will remain open throughout the winter for overnight camping: -Nehalem Bay, three miles south of Manzanita Junction, off U.S. Highway 101. This park will accommodate cam pers on the North Coast while Studded tires may be used Nov, 1 The use of studded tires on Oregon's highways for the coming winter season be comes effective November 1, H. Scott Coulter, state high way engineer, said recently. Under state law, studded tires are permitted on Ore gon's highways during the period Nov. 1 through April 30 of the following year. Coulter asked that users of studded tires defer putting the tires on their cars until they are necessary due to snow or ' ice because of the damage they cause to bare pavements. He said indications are that the use of studded tires has declined in recent years, and he would like to thank those who have cooperated in the effort to preserve roadway surfaces. The use of studded tires costs the highway division approximately $1.5 million annually for repairs to the system. Coulter said. The effect of studded tires on pavement markings results in extreme damage, and occurs at a time when these markings are badly needed, he said. The studs also crush the reflectorized glass beads used in pavement markings, there AAikgAj iff Ioo off-road maps available ed roads. All trails on the Umatilla National Forest are closed to motor vehicles over 40 inches in width, said a Umatjlla Forest spokesperson. How ever, this does allow the use of motorbikes on the trails unless prohibited by an area closure. ' The one exception, outside of a closure area, where no motor bikes are allowed on trails is the lower Wenaha River Trail from the Umatilla National Forest boundary upstream to the Wenaha-Tucannon Wild erness boundary. Forest supervisor Rudolph says that some of the closures are necessary to protect deer and elk on winter ranges from harassment and stress brought on by the presence of snowmobiles and other motor vehicles. Other areas are closed to motor vehicle travel three days prior to and during all firearm elk seasons to offer a foot or horseback hunting experience which, to many overnight facilities at Fort Stevens State Park are closed this winter for utility system repairs. - Cape Lookout, 12 miles southwest of Tillamook, off 101. - Beverly Beach, seven miles north of Newport on 101. - Jessie M.

They dig ruts in pavement which collect wa ter, and increase the potential ' for hydroplaning, and cause extensive splash and spray during wet conditions. Department of Transporta tion vehicles will not use studded tires, Coulter said. The Highway Division plans to begin its road condition reports on Nov. 1, but if weather conditions warrant, they will start sooner. The state police, in cooper ation with the highway divis ion, will provide daily updated reports on road conditions over special telephone lines located in various parts of the state. The reports, taped messages updated to reflect changing conditions, will be available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. These reports are scheduled to start Nov. 1, but if conditions warrant, could start earlier.

The State Game departments of Oregon and Washington cooperate In enforcing these elk hunting season closures. One area, the" Greenhorn Mountains Scenic Area, is closed to off -road motor vehicle travel because of its scenic values. The Wenaha-Tucannon Wilderness Is closed to all types of motor vehicles and motorized equip ment by act of Congress. The Mill Creek Watershed is also closed yearlong to all motor vehicle travel to protect the domestic water supply for the city of Walla Walla, Washington. Approximately 20 percent of the land area on the Umatilla National Forest is included in these closure areas with the largest part being in the Wenaha-Tucannon Wilderness. the public for day use. However, in high elevations, show and freezing weather may close access to some areas or require draining of water systems and closure of restrooms. Such disruption of service may be for only short periods of time in valley, coastal and low-altitude areas. Navyman completes training Navy Seaman Apprentice Perry R.
