Thl morning at 9 o'clock, 83 mem
ber of the Medford high football
tam, with Bill Bowerman, head
coach, and the team managers, left
on a chartered Greyhound but for
the annual game with the Rom burg
Indiana. The bua waa rented by the
Med ford high achool especially for
transportation of the team.
Cawy state park, on the Crater lake
highway, has become an Important
recreational area during the past year
aa a result of the lncreaee In the
number of persons seeking outdoor
recreation and the work performed
by a group of CCG enrolleea In pro
viding facilities to make the park
unable.
Until last year, the area had for
many years been operated a a pri
vate resort. Facilities Installed by the
private operator Included picnic tab
lea, benches, cabins, a store and a res
taurant. Acquisition of the area by
the state for use as a state park
made the present CCO activities pos
sible. The COC work Is being done
under the general supervision of the
national park service In cooperation
with the Oregon state highway commission.
Although other tracts are owned for
state park purposes, the Casey area
constitutes the only state park de
velopment In Jackson county. Bor
dering the Rogue river and surround
ed by steep wooded hills, the park is
one of the most scenic In Oregon. Be
cause of Its scenic charm, together
with good trout and steel head fish

fers exceptional recreational oppor
tunities. Extensively Used
Tt was extensively used during the
1037 season by picnickers en route
to and from Crater lake national
park and by people of nearby com
munities. Approximately 30 per cent
of the visitors were anglers and. their
families. The park visitors frequently
numbered 200 a day. Park officials
believe that this number will be
greatly Increased as the park becomes
better known and as the Improve
ments now underway are completed
Tentative plans for the COC pro
gram of development In Casey state
park call for the removal of certain
of the old buildings and their replace
ment by more park-like structures.
New picnic tablee and benches made
of heavy-hewn timbers are to replace
the present crude tables In the picnic
area which covers approximately 15
acres of choice grassy woodlands.
Camp fireplaces are planned to elim
inate the present open fires which
constitute a forest fire hazard. To
complete the program, a nature trail
that will afford access to Interesting
points In the park may be built.

(Br Barbara temmon.)
J. W. Balrd. representative of the
National Asoclatlon for Fire Preven
tion, spoke before a student body as
sembly In the auditorium of Medford
senior high school, October 6. at 10
o'clock, to impress upon the students
the need of national observance of
Plre Prevention week.
The speaker brought attention to
the fact that over 10,000 lives are
lost and three and a half billion dol
lars worth of property destroyed an
nually by fire. This, he stated, was
due to carelessness and the tendency
of people to become panic stricken
when there Is danger.
He told the assembly that the his
tory of Fire Prevention Week goes
back to a day some years ago when
138 school children were killed by
fire. The fire chief of that city took
It upon himself to institute a week
each year during which all people
should be fire conscious. This week
Is still observed and in time, accord
lng to Mr. Balrd, will cut down the
loss of lives and property.
As an appropriate ending for the
assembly. Mr. Smith, high school
principal, had the entire student body
practice evacuating the assembly hall
in a fire drill. The student Dooy
cleared the building In two minutes.

Have you seen the beautiful young
redwood tree on the front lawn of
the high school grounds? Sequoia
Sempervirens is its botanical nam;
it stands a tall and stralgt ever
green among the deciduous oaks.
It la a tall and tapering single-
trunked tree with many small
branches which bear cones on the
tics of their flat-leaved branches.
The redwood forest near Crescent
City fostered the tree which was
brought here in 1908 by Rev. John
K. Harwood. It was then six and
one-half feet tall and 14 years of
age. It Is very unusual to see this
type of tree growing in the warm
interior melons, for their natural
home is along the cool, fog-covered
coast.
The name. Sequoia sempervirens,
was derived from Sequoia the name
of an educated Cherokee Indian, who
invented an alphabet for his tribal
inncnmcD. and semoervlrens two
words, meaning always living.

HEARINGS SLATED
WASHINGTON. Oct. 8. (AP,
John L. Lewis will gather leaders or
his committee for Industrial Organ!
aatlon about him next week to tal-
Inventory and devise new strater
for the bitter fight with the Ameri
can Federation of Labor.
His chieftain said the conference
was intended primarily to canvatt
the organization's work and "con
sider reports upon its administrative
affairs and policies." but there ap
peared little doubt today that the
CIO hoped to match any public at
tention attracted by Its bitter rival
for labor supremacy.
Green Denoupnced
Lewis, In a New York speech Mon
day night, opened this campaign b;.
denouncing some accusations of Wil
liam Green, federation president, c
"nothing more than a politic? '.
wheeze."
He contended "there Is no securlt.
as far as economic peace Is concern
ed' In the action of some corpora
tions he accused of signing workei
employer agreements with the AF1
to avoid negotiations with the CIO.
Lewis leaders, discussing actio,
they make take next week, profess:
little concern over the possibility that
the A. P. of L. might decide to expe;
unions which bolted to Join Lewis.
"We are a going organization al
ready and we don't care whether the;,
expel ua or not," one of Lewis' aide
said.
In contrast to the present Denver
convention of the A. P. of L.. no
government spokesman has been in
vited to speak. J. Warren Madden,
chairman of the labor relation,
board, addressed the federtlon at
Denver Tuesday.
Few Spokesmen
Lewis, John Brophy, director of the
C. I. O., and Sidney Hlllmen, chair
man of the textile workers' organiz
ing committee, probably will be the
only speakers.
Nearby will be such other leaders
as Philip Murray, chairman of the
steel workers' organizing committee;
Homer Martin, president of the Unit
ed Automobile Workers, and Harry
Bridges, director of the committee's
west coast maritime organization
work .

cal curiosity so much that the dig

published an article discussing it,
estimated today that this scientific
contribution had embarrassed him to
the tune of 150,000.

friendly and antagonistic. His fre
quently votced plaints are 'It's not
my fault that I am this way,' and
'I didn't have anything to do with

much and he Is Introverted and
