Round-Upof Old
Saws Under Way
" A unique round-up of ol&saws
and wood cutting equipment is
under way m Jackson county
under the sponsorship of South
ern Oregon Equipment company,
according to EdGordon, execu
tive of the company.
Collectors of stamps, coins,
buttons and many other items
are' commori, but few indulge in
the strange hobby of assembling
old -wood cutting devices. The
round-up. is being conducted on
a nation-wide basis by the Mc
Culloch Motors Corporation,
manufacturers of chain .saws. Re
sults of the local collection will
be displayed in the windows of
Southern Oregon Equipment
company, 3540 North Pacific
highway.
Although early models of
chain saws are especially sought,
old axes and saws will be shown
since these tools have contribut
ed much to the progress of civil
ization and the building of the
west. It is hoped that unusual
early day pioneer tools submit
ted can be acauired on a loan
or gift basis for the Southern
Oregon museum at Jacksonville.

Pair Held I2 Hours
In. 'Hoi' Automobile
Beaverton (U.R) Two per
sons were hospitalized at Hills-
boro yesterday - after they sat
trapped " for one and one-half
hours in a car draped with 24,000
volt high tension wires.
Mildred Bastow of Portland
and Cyril A. Vuylsteke, Forest
Grove, were rescued from their
"hot" car after it had skidded
on the pavement six miles west
of Aloha . and sheared off a
power pole.
Portland General Electric
linemen removed the high ten
sion lines while police guided
traffic around the downed lines.
. Vuylsteke suffered an injured
hand and Miss Bastow, driver of
the car, was hospitalized at Hills-
boro for shock and possible rib
fractures.
Television Set
Good Place for tlest
Milwaukee CJ.R) A tele
vision set can be entertaining,
informative, decorative and
it can even provide a nice place
for a bird nest. .
Mr. and Mrs. Frank Lentz'
five-year-old son, Danny, found
a baby sparrow that had fallen
from its nest. He took it home,
and ell took turns feeding it with
an eye dropper and tweezers. '
After a few days of this treat
ment, the sparrow felt right at
home, began enjoying its diet of
warm milk and warm ground
meat, and grew accustomed to
its life in a cigar box stuffed
with flannel matting. ,
The most convenient place for
the bird's unorthodox nest was
atop the television set. A lighted
lamp was placed above the box
to keep the bird warm.
The Army will spend about
$4,000,000 on the new Federal
Employees Group' Life Insur
ance program in fiscal 1959.
