Phone 39:0 WINE IN URGE OF Belief that southern Oregon has great possibilities as a grape producing area was expressed by Horatio F. Stoll, who, under auspices of the Wine Institute, addressed a dinner meeting of Kiwanians and their wives in the Holland Hotel Blue Room last night. Stoll thinks that some of the best wine and table grapes can be grown in this region and says there is a great future in Ore gon for grapes. The speaker cited that 1,140,000 gallons of vine were consumed in thU state In 1944 and that only 187,000 gallons, principally berry wines, were Oregon produced. He added that he would like to see Oregon pro duce a higher percentage of wines for its consumption. Jose phine, Clackamas and Washing ton counties are especially suit ed to grape raising, Stoll be lieves. Movie Shown Stoll spoke on the romance In America's grape industry and showed a technicolor movie "Grape Growing in America, depleting the processes of wine making and explaining intelll gent and temperate use of the product. He pointed out that this country can grow any var iety of grape grown elsewhere in the world. Grapes were Introduced Into California in 1709 by Father Serra, his vine became known as the Mission grape and Call fornla is today the great grape growing stutc of the nation, 25. 000 persons there having vine yards, Stoll declared. Twenty-four bottles of white and red table wines and also cur rant wines from Oregon were passed out to Kiwanians. Installation ceremonies for the new officers were conducted by the organization last night. NEW AUTO COURT AT .
