Conger returned yesterday from an auto trip Into the middle west, where they visited friends, and relatives In Iowa, Mis souri, Nebraska and Kansas. Mr. Con ger, upon his return, stated that any one dissatisfied with southern Ore gon should hop Into the family auto and take a trip back to that country to appreciate what they have here. "It looks to me," Mr. Conger stated, "aa though the corn crop In the middle-west Is an almost total failure. Stalks are only about waist high. But even at that, the people there say that things are better now than they wore last year, and are getting better all the time." An Interesting reflection waa made by Mr. Conger concerning the pear situation. In a small southern Iowa town he saw some Pinnacle brand pears from Medford. Upon Inquiry he found they sold for 35 cents a dozen, but the proprietor apologized for not having California fruit Instead of Oregon. "I tried to get California pears, but couldn't make it," the store owner said. The entire trip was made without mishap, Conger said today, other than two flat tires and getting pinched for parking in the wrong place In St. Joseph, Mo. They returned by way of the south ern route after attempting to head straight across tho country. A terri fic snow storm at Denver turned them south, however, and they visit ed at the Grand Canyon before com ing west through New Mexico and Arizona.

IPlElRlLlFIOIMERAMLliQtAE MORTICIANS 3vV OfflCEOFCOUNTYCORONtR"SIXTH M OAKDAIE Vl;" NOT TO SHOOT CRATER LAKE NATIONAL PARK, Oct. 28. An appeal la made to south ern Oregon besr hunters not to kill Crater lake park bears which are now migrating from the park area to low er levels. Inasmuch aa the bear season opens November 1, It la entirely prob able that Crater Lake bruins In their wanderings will find themselves In line of fire. ... A number of sportsmen point out that as a result of being In proximity of people the entire summer and learning to regard- men aa frlende, the bears are exceedingly tame and have no fear of hunters. To kill ant mala of such tameness Is not declared to be sport but more like slaughter ing beef cows. Most of the thirty or forty bears In the park during the summer are Identified by names and some have been returning to the Crater lake area each spring for several years, but nevertheless each season witnesses the absence of a number of bruins their pelts probably hunters' trophies. Since the arrlvsl of October snows, a number of the bears have been lin gering at the kitchen door of the mess hsll at park headquarters and have become quit an attraction for late sesson park vlsltorsTwo cubs, Prankle and Johnnie, nave ahown more boldness tbsn most of their fel lows in the way of begging for food. They sit on their haunches for min utes at a time In the hope some food wll be thrown to them, and If un successful In their waiting, they arise and walk upright to the kitchen door to Investigate. A number of, park bears have al ready departed for lower climes and It is not surprising for the bears to wander aa far a wag, as Trail on ths west road and below Port Klamath on the south road. ; (Continued From Page One.) 13 -mile unit of the rim road waa graded last summer by the Von der Hellen-Pierson and Dunn & Baker contractors, and will undoubtedly be ready for graveling next year. A five mile unit from "The Wineglass" to Cloudcap was graded during the sum mer, joining with two short grading contract to Kerr Notch, handled by local contractors.. Drive fs Scenic This leaves only one unit of the rim road not under construction and it Is possible activity on, this may start next year. It Is probable six years will elapse before the road will be entirely completed, providing mot orists with one of the most unusual and scenic drives In the world. During the travel season, motor caravans are dally features, leaving the Slnnott memorial observation sta tion each morning at 6:15 under the guidance of a ranger n&turallst. Stops are made at eight principal j observation points along the way. where the geologic value and scenic Importance of the different views are ! explained. The observation points have parking accommodations for a minimum of 50 autos. Visitors may also make their own drives around 1 the rim and when the road la en- 1 tlrely completed, will find printed ; explanatory information available at each stop. No Steep Grades The new rim road, when complet ed, will be devoid of steep grades i or sharp curves, but yet it has not 1 been constructed aa a auoer-hlcrh'wav I en which motorists would be apt to speed around the lake and pass by scenes of beauty in their rush to make the lake circuit. Of additional Interest Is the fact that the rim road Is being construct ed without marring the natural ; beauty of the area or disturbing the j prlmltlveneas of any portion of the drive. The road Is not visible from ; any point around the rim. Road cuts, 1 which would have been unp leaning to i the eye. wero landscaped by the J branch of plans and designa of the ; national park service, by restoring j natural sod to the cut and by the j planting of trees. j BOWLING Tho Studebaker Champlona to date have lived up to'thelr high sounding tltla and ars flying one point In front of the fast 8moke House five In the city bowling league.
