E
MAY" BE FILMED
There Is a definite possibility
that Ernest Haycox' latest Satur
day Evening Port serial, "Can
yon Passage," will be filmed in
Jacksonville and the Rogue Riv
er Valley where most of the ac
tion of the story occurred, ac
cording to word received Friday
by the Jackson County Chamber
of Commerce. Henry Spitz, rep
resentative of Walter Wanger
Pictures. Inc., of Universal City,
Calif., and a party of three will
visit the Jacksonville area this
week to survey the locale. The
Wanger company has purchased
the 'Canyon Passage mm
rifihts.
The motion picture men will
be shown about the region by
Ranger Lee Port of the Star Ran-
ger Station, who has been as
signed to the duty by Forest Su
pervisor Karl Janouch.
Haycox' two best known nov
els which "were filmed in tech
nicolor and proved top box of
fice attractions were 'Union Pa
cific" and "Stagecoach." The
recent novel of early life In the
gold mining community of Jack
sonville will be produced on a
similar scale. Chamber officials
here have expressed gratifica
tion In the interest of southern
California film producers In the
Oregon area, believing that se
lection of this section for the
filming of "Canyon Passage1
may lead to future productions
- in this valley.
Assurances o f cooperation
have been extended to Walter
Wanger Pictures, Inc. by Gover
nor Earl Snell and the local
chamber. The author of "Can
yon Passage" recently spoke at
a Medford Rotary club meeting
and is a honorary member of the
Jackson County Sheriff's Posse.

LOIR AIR FARES
PROPOSED BY UAL
Proposed new lower air travel
fares between Medford and other
cities across the country were
filed today by United Air Lines
in Washington, D. C, for an ef
fective date of August 20 or
earlier, according to word re
ceived by Max Henne, station
manager here. These, with ear
lier reductions by the United,
represent a 24 per cent reduction
in air travel fares since the start
of the war.
W. A. Patterson, president of
United, again emphasized that
the lower fares are not being
proposed as a business-getting
device Inasmuch as United's
Mainliners already are carrying
capacity or near-capacity loads.
Examples of the proposed
rates, as they affect Medford in
comparison with present and
prewar tariffs, are as follows:
Medford to: Portland, pro
posed, $f0.40, present, $10:80;
Seattle, $16.65, $17.30; San
Francisco, $12.85, $13.40; Los
Angeles, $28.00, $29.20; Chicago,
$85.45, $89.75; New York, $119.

only one tank company, but got
out of control and now every one
in the regiment drops in for
doughnuts.

land Normal School and later
enrolled in Sacramento Junior
