J Lake 0' Woods Airstrip, Poisoning Plans Discussed Klamath Falls Plans for im proving the Lake O' Woods land ing strip were discussed at a meeting here last week. It was also revealed that plans are being formulated for the poisoning of trash fish in the lake, in a program similar to that conducted previosuly at Fish lake and Diamond lake. Earl Snyder, head of the state board of aeronautics, attended the meeting, which also was at tended by Klamath area fliers, representatives of the Lake O' Woods Home Owners associa tion, and others. Poisoning Planned Fish and game commission men at the meeting said that there are tentative plans to poi son the lake in October. This was brought out during a dis cussion of the need for draining the lake to facilitate the airport strip construction. The present landing strip is about 3,000 feet long and a half mile wide, east and north of the lake. It is accessible only in late summer and early fall. Those attending emphasized that the field would make a good emer gency landing strip, since it is near a regular airway, and would enhance the recreational value of the area. The state aeronautics agency will continue investigation of the possibilities of the plan. DeSofo Establishes Stock Car Record A 1955 DeSoto fireflite 4-door stock sedan established a new high speed record for the meas ured mile at national speed trials recently at Daytona Beach, Fla., according to Dick Knight, Medford DeSoto dealer. Pacing a field of American built stock cars, in the 250 to 299 displacement class, a 1955 DeSoto fireflite established a new high speed record with an average of 112.295 mph over the famed Daytona "Flying Mile." The former mark for the event, set only last year, was 96.665 mph. Winning owner - driver Don MacDonald, Detroit editor of Mo tor Trend Magazine, made his first start in the annual race classic. The winning DeSoto was pow ered by a 200 horsepower fire flite V-8 engine with a four barrel carburetor and dual ex hausts. .

ROBERT SMITH Mail Tribune Correspondent Washington After breaking bread at the White House with President Eisenhower this week Sen. Richard L. Neuberger (D Ore.) came away with the im pression that Eisenhower is "somewhere between Franklin Roosevelt and Harry Truman not as crackerbarrel as Truman and not as imperial or majestic as Roosevelt." The president invited the 14 freshman senators, Republicans and Democrats, who had been elected last November to have lunch with him all in keeping with Eisenhower's policy of in viting every member of Con gress for a meal at the White House. All Congressmen Invited Neuberger said the president told the group of his discovery when he took office that many veteran members of Congress had never been invited to eat at the executive mansion, and that he vowed to change that. During his first two years in office he invited all the members of the 83d Congress to a series of lunch eons, and now he is adding to his guest list those newcomers elected last fall. "He is a very charming man," Neuberger said afterward. "And he looked younger than I thought he would. .He. talked a lot about the outdops, especially about his Gettysburg farm." Neuberger said there was no discussion of politics, and he had no idea from the talk of the farm whether Eisenhower ex pects to move there when his present term expires or four years later. Complains About Crab Neuberger's only real com plaint about the affair was that the crab salad was made of the tougher, stronger eastern crab which no one from the Pacific Northwest would take if he could possibly get Dungenness crab. There followed in course lamb chops, potatoes, peas, apple pie Legislators Would Honor H. B. Aldrich Salem (U.R) Eastern Oregon memorial in the House urging that the lake formed behind Mc Nary dam on the Columbia river be named Aldrich lake in honor of the late H. B. Aldrich who was publisher of the East Ore gonian at Pendleton. . Sponsoring the memorial are Reps. Irwin Mann (R-Adams) and Robert E. Goad (D-Penoleton) and Sen. Lowell Steen (R-Milton-Freewater). The memorial was addressed to President Eisenhower, Secre tary of Interior Douglas McKay and the Board pf Geographic Names. tfMf lift GATES OPEN 6:30 P. M. SHOW AT 7 P. M.

The routine of having lunch with the president for the 14 senators went like this: they gathered in the waiting room, each about 10 minutes early for the 1 o'clock date. At 1:05 the president was announced and strode in to greet each senator personally with a handshake. Then they went into the dining room, the president and Sen. Alben Barkley (D-Ky.) walking arm-in-arm. Neuberger said he was seated in the third seat on the presi dent's right, and that each sen ator was shown the seating ar rangement chart as they arrived to avoid confusion when they entered the dining room. The experience of eating at the White House wasn't new to Neuberger, who had been a fam ily guest of the Roosevelts sev eral times, but he said he never Hunters Molesting State Mouse-Traps Salem (U.R) The State For estry Department said Saturday it wished hunters and other visi tors to the woods would leave its mouse traps alone. They're spoil ing an experiment, the depart ment says. During the last hunting season more than 40 mouse traps were shot up or stolen, the depart ment said. The traps the department uses don't kill the mice. They're metal gadgets known as "live" traps. Each mouse trapped is ear-tagged for identification pur poses. Idea of the experiment is to check the eating habits ahd travel patterns of field mice to determine the best method for treating them prior to sowing tree seeds from low-flying heli copters. Forest Service Seeks Jimberline Operator Portland (U.R) Lloyd Olsen, supervisor of the Mt. Hood na tional forest, said Saturday the forest service is making an ef fort to reopen part of Timberline Lodge and operate a portable tow to take advantage of the re maining winter sports season. Olsen said the plan is to find someone who is willing to try to operate on a limited basis un til a new permit is issued. Olsen sad that the forest serv ice soon would mail to some 40 persons who have expressed an interest in the permit a pros pectus accompanied by sample permit agreements.

The freshman Democrat said he found Eisenhower "pleasant, amiable and attractive, but not a striking figure like Roosevelt." He said he thought it an honor to lunch with the president, and that he looked forward to receiv ing an autographed place card from Eisenhower which he re quested when he returned to his Senate office to write the Presi dent a thank you note for the pleasant time he had in his luncheon visit at the White House. First Aid Trainees Top Million Mark, Red Cross Reports . (Editor's note: This is an other article in behalf of the Jackson County Red Cross Fund Drive outside Medford. Based on official Red Cross information, it is submitted by the fund drive publicity committee.) The number of first aid cer tificates issued in 1954 tonped the million mark for the Third consecutive year. Swimming and life saving certificates also at tained an all-time peak of over 1,000,000. In addition, first aid and water safety demonstrations and talks reached more than 5,700,000 persons. In Jackson county, the Red Cross has available 40 trained instructors who are available to teach such classes. Any time 10 or more people can be brought together for the purpose of first aid classes, instructors will be furnished. There are -also 20 trained water safety instructors. Goal Told The Red Cross is now working to see that there is at least one qualified first aider in each fam ily. In times of disaster this would be a tremendous help to overwhelmed medical person nel. The immediate care given the injured until the doctor ar rives may be the difference be tween life and death, temporary and permanent disability, and a more rapid recovery or long hos pitalization. First aid training reduces ac cidents, and is invaluable during emergencies.. The U. S. govern ment has asked the Red Cross this year to tram 1,000,000 for civil defense. The Red Cross will be an integral part of civil defense in the event of a war caused emergency. Join the Red Cross and join this essential safety program. MARY'S' . . CASA . . OPEN .

S. Geological Survey by the State Mapping Ad visory committee. The area ex tends from the California line north to Crater Lake and from the vicinity of. Klamath -Falls to Hart Mountain, east of Lakeview. At present no topographic maps are available for this region. The U. S. Geological Survey has been mapping the United States since 1882, but only 30 per cent of Oregon has been map ped and progress is slow, F. W. Libbey, chairman of the commit tee, pointed out. At the current rate it would take until the year 2008 to map the state complete ly, Libbey estimated. The map ping advisory committee hopes that the amount of mapping will be greatly increased in the near future. Topographic maps show relief of the land, roads, and railroads, streams, section and township lines, cities, towns and even in dividual buildings in rural areas. Maps of the type requested by the committee are published with a scale of one inch to one mile on sheets measuring approxi mately 16 by 20 inches. Such maps are essential for nearly all types of engineering planning, geological mapping, forest and range management, soil conservation, highway plan ning and taxation assessment purposes. Tourists and recrea- tionists are using topographic maps in steadily increasing num bers. SUBMIT LOW BID Portland (U.R) The Hanley Salvage Company of Lonsview.
