WHITE EXPECTS 41ST DIVISION WILL J Radio Highlights lished her camp the latter part of June, picking out an advan tageous site, staking off the best berry patch and otherwise get ting the jump on the pickers who wait until it's time for the berries to ripen. How many berries Mrs. Ham ilton has picked this year no one in the forest service would estimate. She sells the berries to the Union Creek resort and to stores in Klamath Falls, mak ing deliveries in her pickup truck. Her brother doesn't care much about picking berries; so he spends most of his time fishing. Mrs. Hamilton's camp was described by forest headquar ters as being exceedingly well kept. During the rest of the year Mrs. Hamilton operates a boarding house in Klamath Falls; in the summer a friend takes charge of the business so that Mrs. Hamilton might take her annual pilgrimage to Huck leberry mountain. After the day's picking, Mrs. Hamilton sits around her camp and plays pinochle or pitches horseshoes with her brother and other campers. She packs a .22 rifle wherever she goes in the forest. A skilled hunter, Mrs. Ham ilton follows her berry picking with hunting in the fail, and she has the reputation of never failing to get the limit bag of deer. She is part Indian and so she is permitted to hunt on the Klamath reservation with out a license, but usually she procures a license anyway so that she might hunt wherever she chooses. No one in the forest service would venture a guess as to her age, and Mrs. Hamilton doesn't tell. Bfc Associated Press (Time is Pacific Standard) New York, Aug. 8.
