On The Side
By E. V. Durling
(Distributed by King Feature Syndicate. Ine.)
O SWEET delight; O more than
human blUs,
With her to live that ever
loving is!
How blessed is he that mar
live and die
So loved, so blessed in my
beloved am I.

Campion.
There is an excess of grim
airwave dramas dealing with
people with "problems." The
star of this kind of playlet is
usually one of those soap op
era Bernhardts who hams it all
over the set. Therefore, it is re
freshing to have an opportunity
to view some well acted playlets
packing plenty of laughs, and
including an occasional tear,
such as offered by the Damon
Runyon Theater. I can hardly
wait from one week to another
to see these highly amusing
pieces.
Down Under
Australians are the world's
greatest meat eaters. You can
travel thousands of miles in
Australia and never find a vege
tarian. The Australian life ex
pectancy is 65 years. This is one
year more than that the resi
dents of the United States. So
don't let any vegetarian make
you believe an enthusiasm for
steak and roast beef will shorten
your life.
Please Not.
The major league home run
situation is ridiculous. While the
moronic type of fan screams in
childish delight when a ball is
hit into the stands, an intelligent
sports enthusiast can only find
it depressing. This is especially
true in New York. At the' Polo
Grounds, it is only 258 feet from
the home plate to the right field
stands. To the left field stands
is only 22 feet farther. At the
Yankee Stadium it is 296 feet to
the right field, 301 to the left.
And the ball is getting livelier
every year.
Asking
Queries from clients. Q. Where
do you say the orange origi
nated? A. The orange originated
in China and was introduced
into Spain by the Portuguese.
The Spaniards introduced the
orange to this country in Florida
. . . Q. Did the ringman known
as "Knockout" Brown ever meet
the battler called "One Round"
Hogan? If so, what happened?
A. The men you mention met
once. Hogan did not dispose of
Brown in one round. Brown
didn't knock out Hogan. The
fight, a no-decision bout, went
ten rounds.
Barbers
Passing a tonsorial parlor I
noticed a barber sitting down
while giving a client a haircut.
Not a bad idea. Why don't all
barbers sit down while working?
Be better for their health. Be
sides they wouldn't be so weary
when they arrived at home at
night and could take their wives
out dancing a couple of times
a week.
Horses & Women
Note Jane Rusell, the tall,
buxom cinema celebrity refer
red to as a "Venus." Jane has
a nice figure, but she is definite
ly no Venus. The same can be
said of many other women who
are said to have "Venus" fig
ures. History tells us the meas
urements of the young woman
who posed for the statue of
Venus were as follows: Height,
5 feet 4; bust, 3434; waist, 28V,
and hips, 36.
Musicians
More people are being enter
tained by music than ever be
fore in this country's history.
Nevertheless, of the approxi
mately 249,000 professional mu
sicians in the United States, only
74,000 have full time jobs! The
major cause of the alarming un
employment situation among
musicians is said to be the juke
box.
So They Say
Libra (September 23-October
22) men whose ruling planet is
Venus have roving eyes. They
are extremely flirtatious. To

River Fishing Lodge
Construction is expected to
get under way in mid-June on a
560,000 hunting and fishing
lodge and property in the Illinois
river area by the Associated De
velopment corporation of Eagle
Point.
Signers of the incorporation
papers are O. R. McNeel, an in
spector at the Medford city build
ing inspection offices, his wife,
Mrs. Mildred M. McNeel, and
George W. Plumb. The property
will be accessible only by air
plane. Mainly share holders in the
company are from this area
though the stock is not entirely
sold.
The project, to be known as
"Whirlaway Lodge," will accom
odate 16 persons, and options in
clude about 300 acres of land.
The McNeels have lived in
Oregon since about 1948 and
came here from Los Angeles. He

Work Injuries
To Juveniles
Shows Decline
Salem (U.R) Work injuries
to children under 18 in indestrial
employment were almost one
third less in the first quarter of
1955 in Oregon than for the first
quarter a year ago, according to
State Labor Commissioner Nor
man O. Nilsen.
Employment of the minors for
the same period estimated to
represent a four per cent in-,
crease.
The severity of occupational
accidents to minors was found
to be at a low point and no dis
abling injuries were reported.
Bureau of Labor investigations
showed 25 per cent of the teen
agers suffering injuries in the
course of their employment were
hired illegally without approval
of the minors' jobs in permits
from the labor bureau. About
one-third of the jobs in which
teen-agers were working illegal
ly are classed as hazardous under
child labor laws.
"Study of the factors affect
ing minors' accidents in legal
employment shows that many of
the accidents could have been
prevented through training of
young employees in the safe use
of edged tools," Nilsen said.
Hand injuries accounted for
about half of the industrial ac
cidents to minors in the first
quarter. Back strain was next,
followed by bruised feet and
Three Mine Claims
Filed in County
Three notices of location of
quartz mining claims were filed
with the Jackson county record
er's office yesterday. One listed
cinnebar, one mentioned gold
and the other did not specify the
minerals.
John Walch, John Walch Jr.,
and L. A. Walch filed the claim
for the Blue Ridge Cinnebar
mine on the west branch of Soda
creek in the Little Butte Mining
district. They listed also "other
valuable minerals."
Gold and other precious miner
als were specified for the Radi
ant Queen claim on the head
quarters of Murphy's creek in the
Evans Valley Mining district.
Signing the location notice were
Margaret M. Hoffman, Charles S.
Hoffman, Don Johnston, Jewell
Johnston and Vern Ward. Ad
dress given was Mineral Fron
tiers, Brookings, Ore.
Helen Shoemaker and Everett
E. Denny filed notice for the
Ceader mine in the Foots Creek
Mining district. Her address was
listed as PO Box 465, Gold Hill.
