ROBERT R. DICKEY. Administrator Medical Center Building Medford, Oregon Daily's U-Drive Medford Airport ' Thursday. October 20, 1 953 Full Log Utilization Solution To High Cost Of Lumber Production Portland (U.R) One solu tion to high lumber production costs which threaten to price that forest product out of many markets is full utilization of the log, the Society of American Foresters was told yesterday.

Hollywood Stunned By Sudden Death Of John Hodiak Hollywood U.R) Actor John Hodiak's fatal heart attack yes terday stunned Hollywood's film colony, already saddened by the recent . deaths of four other movie stars. .Hodiak, 41, a Pittsburgh coal miner's, son, pushed his way to theatrical stardom in a career that began at the age of 11, when he acted in Russian and Ukrain ian plays in a parish. He was shaving Wednesday morning when he collapsed suddenly and died of coronary thrombosis. Praised by Critics Death came as the tall, hand some actor headed for new screen stardom after his movie career temporarily stalled. Cri tics were praising him for his performance as a prosecuting attorney in a new film, "Trial," which opened recently through out the country. Other deaths which have rocked Hollywood since late summer were those of Carmen Miranda, Suzan Ball, Robert Francis and James Dean. Promising Careers The careers of Miss Ball, who died of cancer, and Francis and Dean, killed in plane and auto crashes, respectively, were among the most- promising in Hollywood. Miss Miranda, the fiery Latin-American entertain er, was re-establishing herself as a top Hollywood performer when she died suddenly like Hodiak of a heart attack. Although Hodiak's friends and family said he was healthy, and had no record of heart trouble, doctors explained that the actor had . high . blood pressure and there was "a bad family heart history." Hodiak lived with his parents, Mr. . and' Mrs. Walter Hodiak; a sister, Mrs. Anne Sli- via, and a brother, Walter Jr., in a suburban San Fernando Valley home. His sister heard him fall and found him dead on the bathroom floor. 17th in Same family To Enter Minstry Providence, R. I. (U.R) Carl Frank Graesser Jr. is the 17th member of his family to enter the ministry. Ordained recently, he will be come an assistant pastor at Luth er Memorial Church in St. Louis. His father is a local pastor. His great-grandfather, both his grandfathers, seven uncles and five first cousins also have serv ed in the clergy. Merger May Be Answer "If a single firm does not have capital to build large inte grated plants to make other wood products, mergers of small plants may be the answer," he said. "Cooperative arrange ments between small plants may be another possibility." Royce Cornelius of Tacoma told the group that coming years will see "a large organic chem ical industry," rise in forested areas as the economic push forc es increased log utilization. Another speaker said the best course for avoiding damage to fishery resources from logging is for more intensive research into how cutting activities af fect streams and through more careful location of operations. Philip Schneider, director of the State Game commission, said scientific studies . have shown that logging causes stream sed imentation, reduction in trout and salmon foods for at least a year after loggin, and choking of important spawning tribu taries. Protection Steps Schneider told the group of a number of protection steps de veloped by the game commis sion including road culverts, bridges, buffer strjps between logging .road and stream to pre vent ready wash, and others. John R. Vanderzicht, Wash ington state parks director, said state and private forest owners had expanded recreational facil ities but that the U.S. Forest ser vice was falling behind. He said visitors to national forests in Oregon and Washington rose 2Vt times to 4,750,000 between 1939 and 1954 but that supervision of recreation had dropped. Registration at the meeting was" 1360, an all-time high. Westinghouse Strike Still On Pittsburgh (U.R) Some 44, 000 workers remained out on strike at 30 Westinghouse Elec tric Corp. plants today. Negotiators ' for the company and the CIO International Union of Electrical Workers met again in an effort to break the dead lock in wage talks which began last Sept. 15. Two bargaining sessions Wednesday apparently failed to make progress toward settle ment of wage, length of contract and time-study disputes which sparked the nationwide walkout last Sunday midnight. IUE Inter national President James B. Carey, who had been sitting in on negotiations, returned to Washington after the Wednesday sessions recessed. The union is demanding a flat 15-cent hike in the current ave rage hourly wage of $2.10. Union negotiators have rejected a com pany offer of a five-year con tract calling for a total 23 cent hourly increase. New York (U.R) Handy and Harman, bullion dealers, have cut the price of silver -cent to 91 cents a fine ounce, the first drop in the price of the white metal in more than four months. ' osa!

Sheen after watching his telecast on-the-spot. The cameramen and the audio men work in the,ir suitcoats perhaps the only, crew in the business not attired in their shirt-sleeves. They do it out of deference to the Bishop. The set he works on is pale blue, colonaded and lit with a pale red cross in the center. The robe the bishop wears is not pur ple, but crimson. The studio from .which he makes his telecast seats 514 per sons. His program draws the most demand for tickets of any at ABC-TV. All but 50 i the ducats are distributed by the So ciety for the Propagation of the Faith which receives all proceeds from the program.. The remain ing 50 tickets go to ABC and of ficials say their secretaries bat tle over them. Uses Three Blackboards Bishop Sheen uses three black boards to illustrate his lectures. All three can be flipped over. A crew member stands behind them and flips them over when the Bishop has finished writing on the front. The signal for the turnover is a slight rap by Bishop Sheen. Usually, before Bishop Sheen writes anything on a blackboard, he scrawls the initials "J.M.J." in the upper left hand corner a common practice in parochial schools. They stand for "Jesus, Mary and Joseph." Bishop Sheen has an ulcer and drinks a glass of milk'before bis telecast, but he shows no sign of tenseness. The technicians on the show Bridge Will Be one Of Safest in World 1 Lansing, Mich. (U.R) The Straits of Mackinac Bridge link in Michigan's upper and lower peninsulas, will be "the safest suspension bridge in the world," according to its designer. Dr. David B. Steinman said wind tunnel tests on a' scale model showed the $100,000,000 span will be able to withstand winds up to 1,000 miles an hour. The bridge will open in 1957. Presenting call him unique.. He does not rehearse at all. Nor does he commit his address to paper. On rare occasions, he may carry some notes if he wants to re member a list of figures. Uncanny Time Sense The technicians say his sense of time is uncanny. He needs no one to tell him to speed up or slow down his delivery. He works with a clock in front of him and usually finishes right on the button. , Bishop Sheen wears the usual pancake makeup which is ap plied by the official ABC-TV makeup man. For the past three years after his television talks, he has. remained in the studio to answer questions from his audience. The audience is mixed housewives, servicemen, clerics, celebrities,,working men, network officials. The Bishop's sense of humor is offbeat and original. After his Man, Boy, Dog Start Sea Trip Waterloo, la. U.R) An old man, a boy and a dog will em bark Sunday on a seven-month, 7,000-mile sea adventure in their 26-foot homemade boat. The crew includes Allen Lown, 72-year-old retired carpenter and former Sea Scout skipper, Eddie Wescom, 18, and the dog. Lown, in whose back yard the boat was built, said today the trip is "the realization of a life time dream." The seafarers will set sail from Dubuquen, la., and pilot the craft down the Mississippi river to the Gulf of Mexico, along the coast to Washington. D.C., through an inland canal to New Jersey, and up the Erie canal to Buffalo, N.Y. From there, they will go down to Detroit, Milwaukee and Chicago, and cruise along the Illinois river, where they will meet the Mississippi river and return home. Braille is now used in 85 languages, serving 7,000,000 sightless persons. first telecast, he introduced Pres ident Robert Kintner and Vice- President Robert Weitman of ABC to his audience, threw his arms around them and an nounced: "I guess you might call us the television trinity."
