Gala Opening at
Rogue River Lodge
Will Lure Throng
Advance registrations today
indicated a large attendance at
the summer opening of Rogue
River lodge, the popular resort
on the breeze-cooled banks of
the sparkling Rogue river near
Trail, next Saturday evening.
Dining and dancing in the
spacious lodge will be pleasant
diversions as a climax to the
celebration of Flag day, the man
agement has pointed out.
Abbie Green, with his piano
end "solovox" will be featured.
The "solovox" is an attachment
that gives the piano such son
ority as to stimulate an orches
tra. Green is well known here,
having at one time led an or
chestra, the "Nite Hawks," a
dance band of versatile Univer
sity of Oregon students, in Med
ford. Genevieve McCorkle, known
affectionately as "Mrs. Mac" is
now chef at the lodge. She has
had years of experience in run
nlng a large kitchen.
San Francisco (U.P5 Blondes
will have an opportunity to play
a fat greater role than brunettes
in building up the army weather i
service to meet the demands of
the new national defense pro
gram, according to weather bu
reau officials.
This favoritism, they explain,
comes from the fact that blonde
hairs are far superior to bru
nette strands for the radiosondes
that are sent into the strato
sphere by small balloons to re
cord weather data and wireless
the reading to the ground. The
hairs are used in recording hu
midity. While no scientific explana
tion for this phenomenon has
been found, the superiority is so
great that only blonde hairs will
be used in the program, which
includes the establishing of 700
weather stations on behalf of
the army and a greater exten
sion of the regular U. S. weather
service.
Eighteen blonde hairs are
needed in each radiosonde for
the humidity recorder. As the
transporting balloon usually
blows up and the transmitter
parachutes to the ground, many
are lost or the hairs ruined in
landing. Hence, weather bureau
officials predict a heavy demand
for blond hairs (or the next
few years.
Development of the weather
service of the government and
the army, weather bureau and
army officials explain, is made
necessary by the new national
defense program and especially
that for the aviation branch.
The air corps' army of me
teorologists, they point out, will
work in much the same role as
diplomatic emissaries gaging the
mood of the temperamental mo
gul of the weather for the day
and giving the all-clear or stay
down signals which make (lying
safe.
The calculations of the army's
new corps of meteorologists will
be based on the equivalent of
six years of study, beginning
with four years of university
training and topped with a stiff
two-year course in meteorology
at a private school or a similar
but (aster course at on of the
air corps' two meteorological
schools.
Each station will receive (our
reports a day, which will be re
corded on four surface synotic
maps, which give information
on wind speed, wind direction, 4
clouds, ceiling, visibility, tern- '
perature and dew point, baro
metric tendencies and whatever
other weather conditions exist
