(International Soundphoto) 16 Skywatch Posts In County Operating All 16 civilian defense ground observation posts in Jackson county' are now operating, ac cording to Col. Charles E. Staf ford, CD county director. The director said all posts have reported in and it is assum ed that the posts are on at least a 14-hour basis, although only three have been inspected by the local CD office. Both Col. Stafford and County Commissioner L. G. (Shy) Morth- land, president of . the county CD organization, are making an inspection of all the 16 posts which will be completed within a week. Gratified with Work Up to thisi morning the two man team had visited posts at Provolt, Ruch and Rogue Riv er, and were "very gratified" at the work of the observers. They described these posts arS "really doing a job" on a 14- hour a day schdule and by prompt reporting. All three posts have been complimented by the Portland filter center, they continued, and included Mrs. Grace B. Hallenbeck, Pro volt; Glen W. Smith, Ruch; and Howard Miller, Rogue River. "Operation Skywatch," as the observation project is . called, went into action on July 14 with 24 of the state's posts on 24 hour duty and 49 activated less than 24 hours. Up to last Thurs day, 61 posts had not begun operation. Aiding these CD groups are 48 U.S. Forest Service and 71 state forestry lookouts. On a state - wide basis, Gov. As We Live Get A New Perspective On Toned Down Romance When a person is in love, the Douglas McKay lauded the pres ent volunteers and at the same time issued a call for more vol unteers to staff the unmanned posts on a 24-hour basis and to bring the presently - operating lookouts from less than 24 hours up to this "around the clock" watch deemed vitally necessary by the U.S. Air Force. He said this addition would make it nec essary to have 11.000 more vol unteers for this state - wide pro ject. A. recent message from Gen. Benjamin Chidlaw, commanding general of the Air Defense Com mand, to all personnel partici pating in the operation, said: "The initiation of 24 hour duty for the Ground Observation corps once again indicated to all the world that America is ever ready to take positive mea sures to retain its security and its freedom. Since the first days of our history, American citi zens have always been alert to any challenge to their freedom. Defense night and day. Spirit Evident "This spirit is again evident in your sincere and selfless ef forts to build a stronger air de fense system foi this nation at this time, when your participa tion in the air defense system for this nation is so greatly need ed. Your volunteer activity in the GOC is a major step in se curing this nation against any potential enemy. "To each member of the GOC I extend not only my personal feelings but those of each mem ber of my command when I ex press sincere appreciation for your active participation in 'Op eration Skywatch.' " By ELIZABETH HURLOCK. PH.D. end or near-end of a romance comes as a hard blow. And yet, such blows cannot ruin a per son's life if he takes a rational viewpoint about them. That is what this young girl should do: (Q) "I had gone steady with a fellow for over a year when he decided that he didn't want to go steady any more. I real ly took it hard. We were so much in love and always got along so well. After a few months he asked me out a couple of times but I kept re fusing. Then I just couldn't refuse him any more and since then we have been dating now and then. He treats me the same as before and he even tells me he still loves me but he never mentions anything about going steady again. I go out on other dates but can't enjoy myself. I have even re fused other dates just hoping he would ask me. Please help me." (A) I can advise you but you must help yourself in this mat ter. Now that summer is here, plan to go a- way for a com plete change and a better per spective. Go to visit friends or rel atives, or take a trip. Get away from your problem and look at it Dr. Hurlock objectively. The chances are that the young man still loves you but he is not ready to settle down to marriage. So to avoid putting yourself in a difficult position, he has told you he does not want to go steady with you any long er. If you love him and think this Log Price Ceiling Changes Revealed By OPS Director Portland (U.R) Changes in the ceiling price regulation on Pacific Northwest logs have been announced by Carl C. Don augh. Portland district director for the Office of Price Stabil ization.

Ceilings prescribed for the new district range from S2.50 to S10 lower than ceilings for the Columbia district on major species and grades. Price Relations Reflected Donaugh said the different ceilings reflected the normal re lationhsip of prices between the is only a temporary phase, be patient and wait for him. But if you have reason to believe that his interest in you is waning, stop seeing him completely. Ev ery time you go out with him will open up old memories and upset you so that you can't en joy the companionship of any one else. Have Good Time While you are away from home, go out and have a good time. This will not necessarily make you forget the man you love but it will help you to rea lize that there is something left in life for you after all. If you have a problem about family or friend, ask Dr. Hur lock to help you. Write in care of this newspaper.
