Eureka Youngster
Making Up for
Loss of Meals
Eureka. Calif. (U.R) Seven-year-old
Bobby Davenport, who
ate nothing but "grass and wild
flowers" during the three days
he was lost in the rugged North
ern California wilderness, made
up for it today at St. Joseph's
hospital here.
The exhausted child wandered
into the Oak Bottom ranger sta
tion yesterday while a 50-man
party was combing the rugged
country above Wooley Creek.
Bobby disappeared late Mon
day when he went to look for
with his family north of here.
Hospital attendants said the
boy was in "amazingly good
condition," despite the fact that
he told rangers he had been
walking for three days and had
not slept because he was afraid
of animals. -
From what Bobby was able to
tell them, authorities said it ap
peaher he had made a complete
15-mile circle around the ranger
station.
The youngster told his parents
he had eaten only "grass and
flowers" and had drunk only
the water he found on plants be
cause he was afraid he'd fall
Into the rain-swollen creek.
He said he heard the blood
hounds that had bden used in
a vain attempt to track him
Wednesday, but that he couldn't
find them and besides, he
was afraid they might 'have kid
napers with them."
ping year, according tb esti
mates prepared by Walter D.
Jensen, federal-stale shipping
point supervisor for this area.
In addition, an estimated 50
carloads of onions, 15 of pota
toes, and 5 of peaches will be
shipped from Medford during the
1955-56 year, Jensen said.
About Last Year
This total of 4,570 carloads is
approximately 300 less than two
years ago, but is more than three
times the number shipped last
year, when fruit crops were
badly damaged by a late frost.
J. M. Wilson, shipping point
supervisor for Hood River, an
other important pear producing
area, estimated that 1,800 car
loads of pears will be shipped
from there during 1955-56. No
pears shipments are listed for
any of the other six shipping
points in the state.
Klamath Potatoes
Approximately 10,000 carloads
of potatoes are expected to be
shipped from Klamath Falls dur
ing 1955-56, according to Super
visor Ross Aubrey. This total is
55, but about 1,000 cars less than
well above figures from 1954
the previous year..
Statewide, inspectors estimate
that 39,115 cars of fruits, vege
tables and nuts will be inspected
for grade in Oregon during the
1955-56 shipping year. That fig
ure is the second highest for the
state, and is 2,253 cars less than
the all-time high set in 1950-51.

where their daughter Linda, who
fell from a tree last October and
is unable to walk because of the
accident, will enter the Shrine
hospital for treatments. It will
not be determined for sometime
as to whether she can walk again.
Anyone wishing to send her
cards or letters can do so in care
of the Shrine Hospital, Portland.

it will be impossible for them to
see her very often.

Cow Palace Said
Suitable for
GOP Convention
San Francisco (U.R) Republi
can National Chairman Leonard
Hall says San Francisco s mam
moth Cow Palace will be suitable
for the GOP convention in Au
gust, 1956, if for no other reason
than that it can be heated.
Describing his reactions on an
hour-long tour of the big pavilion
yesterday. Hall told 250 state and
national party leaders:
"One thing has struck me for
cibly, and I am going to take
it back to Washington with me to
pass on. That was when we were
informed the place has excellent
heating facilities.
"At" most every other conven
tion I can recall, the Republican
party never considered the need
for a warm hall in August."
The average high temperature
in San Francisco in August is 64
and the average low 53. Summer
fogs and sea breezes keep the
mercury down along much of the
immediate Northern California
coast.
In a more serious vein. Hall
predicted 40,000 visitors will be
in San Francisco when the presi
dential nominating convention
opens on Aug. 20 of next year.
Of this number, he said 16,000
will attend the daily convention
sessions.
"We are organizing this con
vention on the assumption that
Dwight D. Eisenhower's name
will be presented," he said.
