BINGHAMPTON, N. Y. -(UP) Dr.
Paul Crouch Is a pleasant man about
40 years old, a good dentist and prob- j
ably the best archer In the United

The library of his Windsor home

is concerned there Is far' too much
dusting to be done for' a half dozen
rooms, let alone one. And to try to
keep that mess tidy it's impossible.
For set on mantles, desks, tables
and book cases is an assortment of
silver and gold cups as to bring a
sparkle to King Midas eyes. One wall
Is covered with standards, and pinned
to the standards are rows of medals.
And the wbolet bunch put together
means Just one thing Dr. Crouch Is
handy with a bow and arrow.
Eleven years ago the dentist wan
dered Into the New England moun
tains on a vacation. While there he
observed a native shooting rabbits
and squirrels with a bowand arrow.
"Commonplace," he thought, though
he was a little surprised when the
marksman brought down a dozen
crows with as many arrows.
So he bought a bow and arrow set
and Btrolled Into the woods to prove
that the New England farmer was
not so hot." Eight hours later
Dr. Crouch sat on a log to take strck
of hl achievements at archery He
found he had made four trips to
town for more arrows, had lost about
80 shafts and hadn't come within
three feet of anything he tried to hit.
And today, as a result of that ex
pose 11 years ago. Dr. Crouch la the
bolder of record which Includes two
national archery championships, eight
eastern titles and a score of lesser
honors.
And after deciding it was not
"child's play," and spending a de
cade of shooting arrows at targets fol
lowing his vow to learn to use the
bow and arrow. Dr. crouch is still en
thusiastic about the sport. He rec
ommends It to everyone he knows.

The state public works depart

is about to begin use of a new rub
ber compound to Join slabs Of ce
ment on highways, both In con
struction of new roads and in main
tenance of existing surfaces.
When cement roads first were
built, there was no fixed uniformity
of strips and the lack of a binding
material between the stretches . of
concrete often resul ted 1 n one
both slabs heaving upward at a Joint
and creating a rough spot.
Asphalt Commonly used
Moreover, expansion and contrac
tion caused by extremities of tem
perature had to be considered and
It was found necessary to leave a
three -quarters-inch space between
the slabs. Asphalt was used for 1ft
years to fill the joints, but It tended
to exude above the edges and thus
form a series of bumps.
Next used was a moulded material
made of a mixture of rubber and
cork with a layer of asphalt on top,
which, however, continued to pro
trude above the level of the high
way.
No Heating Required
The new compound Is a liquid
which is packed In sealed drums. It
Is not necessary to heat before ap
plying. Some of It la brushed over
the edges of the slabs to form a prim
ing coat.
The mixture then 1s poured Into
the joint. It Immediately coagulates
and quickly hardens to form a per
manent bond which seals both the
end and top of a Joint against water,
sand and gravel.
The compound also can be used
for joints In bridge structures..

10 PLANT 60.000-
TREES IN CATH1LL
A large reforestation project in the
valley area got under way Wednesday
when a start was made on the plant
ing of 60.000 ponderosa pine In the
Medford watershed.
The work is being done by the
CCC men of Camp South Fork un
der the supervision of Maurice Ted-
row, ranger of the United States
forest service. The project will be
completed In about a week, said Karl
L. Janouch, forest supervisor.
This Is the largest tree-planting
project ever undertaken in the Rogue
River national forest and is the be
ginning of an annual program that
contemplates the complete reforesta
tion of the Cathlll burn which is a
part of the Medford watershed, Mr.
Janouch stated.
This year the planting will be done
in the Immediate vicinity of the Big
Butte springs which are the Intake
of the Medford water system.
The Cathlll burn planting will
serve as an experiment to determine
the best and most practical methods
to reforest this area which Is cov
ered with extremely heavy brush.
Mr. Janouch explained. The project.
because of the brush, will necessitate
the clearing of lanes with special
tractor-propelled equipment.
The 60.000 trees arrived by express
Tuesday from Stabler. Waaii. They
were obtained from the wind River
nursery on the Columbia national
forest. They are three years old
and less than a foot hlgb. They are
more commonly known as western
yellow pine, the valuable timber var
iety of this locality.
The Cathlll area has been barren
of timber since the big forest fire
of 1910 that completely, wiped out
more than 25,000 acres. Governor
Martin, then a major In the regular
army, brought a contingent of 300
soldiers here to help combat the fire
and he recalled that Incident when
he was in Medford last spring at
the time the state capltol In Salem
burned.
It was recalled today that , when
rain threatened to put out the for
est fire Major Martin urged his men
to more strenuous efforts as he did
not want "an act of God to complete
any Job I've set out to do." The
fire fighters, under his urging, put
out the conflagration before the rain
descended.

ing and instructive talk on infantile

able that the disease could be spread
through the air,, and that driving
