Milloitfreewaler Name Change Eyed Milton-Freewater, Ore. U.R) Mayor Lew Yantis wants to change the name of Milton Freewater but to what and how nobody knows. In a letter made public to day Mayor Yantis said: "We need to change the name of our city. We need a name that has principle and character. We need you (the citizens) to come up with the names." The names have been pour ing in, some from as far away as California, but no one except the mavor knows what thev are. He has declined to release them pending further study of the problem. How will the name be changed? That's still something of a problem, too. The mayor said he is ( studying the situation carefully. Anyone with a favorite name can drop it in the mail to the mayor. It's a -wide-open contest and right now it's anybody's guess what the name will be. Why is the name to be changed? No one knows that either except the mayor, who refused to comment on the rea sons for his weighty project. The deer family is enormously diversified. It ranges from the massive moose, which is six feet tall and weighs about 1,400 pounds, to the kudu, which weighs up to 24 pounds and and stands only 13V2 inches at the shoulder.
