He made an hors d'oeuvrs out of a carpet, and devoured the script for his television show. He also toured the country, un chaperoned, with a pretty brun ette, Loretta North. And Miss North announces she'll never play nursemaid to a 10-month-old kangaroo again. The four-footed, five if you count his big tail, thespian is Joey, presented with fanfare by Australia to the Washington, D.C., zoo. Miss North thinks that the fact Fox recently made "Kangaroo" in Australia has something to do with this, too. Hauled 40.000 Miles Anyway, for three weeks Miss Veterans Responsible For Payment of Loans Veterans who sell their homes and let the purchasers assume the 4 per cent GI loans remain personally responsible for the payment of the loan, it was an nounced today by the Veterans Administration. The VA warned that World War II veterans should not sell their property without making certain their interests are pro tected. The best way to do that, the VA said, is to have the pur chaser pay cash or arrange for a loan in his own name. The VA conceded that proper ty is more easily sold with the favorable 4 per cent GI mort gage remaining in effect a fac tor that should influence the aelling price. However, ' it was Sointed out, a veteran selling ia property with the GI loan Intact runs the risk of later hav ing to pay all or part of the debt resulting from a default by the new owner. North hauled Joey 40,000 mile to 32 cities to appear on az radio shows and 50 television pro grams., "He's a big ham. He loved It," she said. "He sat right up when the cameras were on him. But he's temperamental. "After" a while when I'd pick him up he'd kick." Joey dined at tht Waldorf, hopped around cocktail parties and a special "hopover" party in Chicago, drank milk four times a day and burped frequent ly. He slept in a leather pouch that he thinks is his mother, and as an actor he should see his analyst about that. He can't be housebroken, either. "He sat in my lap and ruined my cocktail dress in Washing ton," sighed Miss Australia. Joey exercised by hopping down corridors, to the conster nation of inebriated lumbermen at a convention in Milwaukee. One man arrived at the kanga roo's Hollywood hotel room door with his wife in two to prove he really had seen one. The furry star originally land ed in this country with a girl friend, Matilda. She not only be haved just as temperamentally on the tour, but had the temerity to die of Kangaroo flu in New York. "The Sydney, Australio, pa pers made a big fuss about it," said Miss North. "You'd think the Americans had poisoned him, or something." Schrunk Urged To Oppose Newbry Pendleton U.R) Democratic State Chairman Howard Morgan said Monday that party members were "putting heavy pressure" on Terry Schrunk, Multnomah county sheriff, to run against Earl Newbry, incumbent Repub lican, for secretary of state. . "We are confident that if Schrunk files, he will be elect ed," Morgan said. In Portland, Schrunk admit ted he was being urged to file for the state post but said he felt reluctant to seek a higher office before completing his term as sheriff. As a Democrat, Schrunk rolled up the largest number of votes ever recorded in Multnomah county when he was elected aft er an interim appointment to succeed the recalled Mike El liott. 6 Rogue River Rogue River Mr.- and Mrs. J.

Reindeer Needed To Save Diminishing Scolt Lapps London (U.R) The "Lapland wizards" are dying out and Brit ons are being asked to send rein deer to help save the mystic tribe. The natives have been cred ited with the ability to commu nicate with each other by mental telepathy. There are only 80 families of Scolt-Lapps left in the wdrld as the result of the ravages of two wars on their . original homeland around Petsamo in Finland. Since the end of World War II, the 350 remaining tribes men have resettled in the far north of Finland, hundreds of miles beyond the Arctic circle. Travelers have reported that despite the sympathetic efforts of the Finnish government to provide them with a suitable vil lage, the tribe is doomed unless it receives the 1,000-strong rein deer herd it needs to feed and clothe itself.

They refuse to have their houses less than two miles apart. That, according to Toni Hop kinson, an editor who visited them Tecently, apparently has heightened the psychic ability supposedly latent in all humans. Hopkinson said he could not otherwise explain how a Scolt Lapp hunter suddenly would start off to meet a friend at a rendezvous 0 miles away and meet him there although no ap parent message had ever been sent, except perhaps mentally.

Other patrons include Jan Sibelius, composer, and Au gustus John, British painter. The fund seeks 7,000 ($19. 600) at 7 ($19.60) per reindeer. Meat hungry Britons are duti fully chipping in, even though they themselves have acquired a taste for reindeer steak during the long beef shortage. There are two other strange reasons why the Scolt-Lapps are having trouble eking a liv ing from the far north. Giant Wolves a Menace One is a gigantic wolf which raids reindeer herds, then races back to the safety of his lair beyond the nearby Russian bor der. The Scolt-Lapp hunters are not permitted beyond the iron curtain and the wolves ap parently have learned they can plague the western world from there with impunity. The other and there are many is described by Hopkin son as a degenerate mammal which grows to a powerful three feet, tall with mighty claws and the odor-ejection ap paratus of the skunk.

In fop. kions of the disease have already taken place but the spray is caus tic enough to burn them out and prevent more. In order to burn out the Infection it is necessary that the spray thoroughly coat all of the surface of the canes as any infection which is missed will continue to develop. The disease is the one which causes the purplish spots with the light centers on the canes. If enough spots develop, they can girdle and kill the canes, but generally speaking the canes are weakened and produce small berries. Another job that can be done now is pruning of grape vines. Pruning grapes frequently causes them to bleed but in the last few days cuts have re mained dry, so now would be a good time to prune. Most of the varieties do best if pruned to the long cane system rather than the spur system. If the vines are un on wires, fivp or siv canes three to four feet long should be left. Table grapes al ready trained to the sDur svstem can be continued and in this case 10 or 12 3-bud spurs can be left to each vine. Walnut pruning is best left until late ADril or earlv Mav. Pruning at this season is apt to result In copious bleeding and while ' this ia not particularly detrimental, it should be avoid ed if possible. C. B. Cordy, ' County Extension Agent, .
