WATSON Shady Cove-Trail The sym pathy of the community is ex tended to Mrs. Thelma Rein ning of Trail on the passing of her husband, Ralph Reinning, Dec. 23, at his home near Trail where he had been trying to put in his pump which had been damaged by the flood. He suf fered a heart attack and was found by Tom Tepper and Johnny Jones, who were help ing to clean up the place. He was well known in the commun ities, having resided at Trail for 13 years, and had operated the R&R Radio and Television shop for the past several years. Fun eral services were to be held Thursday in Seattle where the body was forwarded by Conger Morris. Mrs. Rehviing plans to return here soon. The sympathy of the commun ity is also extended to Mrs. Alma Lindquist on the passing of her husband, Charles Lindquist, in California. The Lindquists own the home next to the Don Har mons in Shady Cove and it was considerably damaged by the flood. Their daughter and her husband, Mr. and Mrs. Swen Lindquist, Tiller, were contacted and came over and have been cleaning up the wreckage and debris of the flood. Mrs. Lind quist is staying with her son. Carl Lindquist, 54 Cowper ave., Berkeley, for the present. Several homes which looked as if they would suffer severe damage by flooding unexpect edly escaped damage. The Walter Turner residence (the former Paul Davis home) at Trail did not get water in the house but lacked only about three inches. The Irwin Howes', Paul Davises' and other friends looked after the place for the Turners, who are on a trip. The Ed Learning residence, which was surround ed by water sitting on low ground next to Indian Creek, suf fered damage to the floors from water, seeping in from below and the flood waters did not get into the house. The J. D. 'Wilk inson residence which had been severely flooded in the storm two years ago, was safe from flood waters, though surround ed by water due to the fact that the house had been lifted up and moved onto higher ground after the last big flood when the Wilkinsons lost much furniture and equipment. The Wilkinsons were taken from their place by boat, as was Mrs. Novotny farther down the highway next to the Miles Williams. Friends of the Scottie Parricks looked after their place, which received a good deal of flooding, with the Clyde Staffords of Trail doing a lot of cleaning and the Jim Wil sons across the road putting the Parricks' furniture in their gar age for safe keeping. Other people were not nearly as fortunate, with two Hammond organs being badly damaged in homes flooded, one belonging to the Major Morrises and the other to the George Fields. Other buildings receiving severe flood ing were the resorts above Mc Leod which were hardest hit. Eastins', Riffles on the Rogue, California on the Rogue and the homes of Bill Brewster, Wilmer Ragsdale. Fred Morgan, Al John son. Ralph Reinning,' George Field, Delmar Logan, Major Morris, Charles Lindquist, Earl Warren, Lester . Morgan, Phil Motschenbacher. and others. This report is incomplete as a number of homes were most probably damaged of which the correspondent has no knowledge. There were some freak inci dents connected with the flood A pump belonging to Carl Daw son of Trail was deposited by flood waters in the mud of the yard of Major .Morris. A section of the white fence of Vera Mar tin's place was wrapped around some of the buildings of Dick Brewer's Robber's Roost, with Dick's prize rooster being drowned by the flood and hang ing in'a tree. ' On behalf of the people of the communities, a sincere thank you is extended to the American Red Cross and Red Cross work ers. Steelhead Post 6881, VFW. and ladies auxiliary, whose members worked unfailingly during Wednesday night and th next day at the post hall, where housing and food was provided to the many volunteer workers who assisted in so many ways both during the flood and with the cleaning up, and to the mem bers of other local organizations who helped in so many ways Also to the people of the com munities who opened their homes to those evicted by the flood. If anyone knows of people who were away at the time of the flood and wllose homes wen damaged by the flood waters, he should either contact the home owners themselves, letting them know about the damage, or the American Red Cross whose tern porary headquarters are at the Shady Cove school.

It is the first such grant ever awarded tha SOC science department for research. Scientific Research Grant Awarded To SOC At Ashland Ashland Scientific research at Southern Oregon college here has been facilitated by a grant from the Tektronix foundation for S850 for the purchase of a Beckman model spectrophotom er. Spectrophotometers are ana lytical instruments which may be used to determine the con centration of certain chemical substances by measuring the ab sorption of light of various wave lengths by solutions of the sub jects. It will enable the absorp tion of various chemicals by the resins used in research to be measured more accurately and conveniently. Continue Studies Lloyd D. Pennington, assist ant professor of science and chairman of the science depart ment's committee on research, said "the research for which the grant was obtained is a study of the preparation of chelating ion-exchange resins and inves tigation of their possible appli cations in analytical chemistry." It will continue studies Penning ton has been doing toward his doctoral thesis. He explained that ion-exchange resins are granular, plastic materials which contain chemically active groups. "These groups," he said, "allow them O SWEET NAVEL Oranges FLORIDA PINKS Grapefruit - 5 JUICY SUNKIST Lemons SALAD FINGERS Bananas LARGE SIZE Avocados WINTER LOCAL VARIETIES SQUASH mm TALL CANS to absorb chemicals and remove them from solution. Such resins have been available for some time and find application in wa ter softening and purification, decolorizing of sugar, recovery of metals and in other situa tions." More Specific Chelating resins are more spe cific as to what chemicals they will absorb, and are not yet av ailable commercially. Dr. Elmo Stevenson, presi dent at Southern Oregon Col lege, said the "grant is of special interest in that it is the first one received by the college for scien tific research."

SIZE 10 New York Youngster Receives iff i Saddle Horse Greenwich, Conn. (U.R) Twelve-year-old Karen Ann Mc Guire got her dream horse to day as a gift from a group of bankers. The reddish-blonde fifth grad er put her arm around the chest nut gelding's neck and kissed him on the nose under the left eye. She was smiling, but all she could say was, "Ahhhh, Gee!" Sixteen teen-agers and two adults, friends and neighbors of Karen Ann in nearby Valhalla, N. Y., broke into applause as they sat on a split rail fence at the riding ring of the Round Hill Stables. Name Picked for Horse The presentation of the eight-year-old horse, which Karen Ann has named "Hanover's Wishing Star," was made by Donald R. Hassell, an assistant secretary of the Hanover Bank of New York to which the little girl had made a bid of S24.03 for the champion racehorse Nashua. The bank officers had chipped in to buy the horse for Karen Ann because they were touched by the letter she wrote bidding for the racehorse. Bankers are supposed to be hard-headed businessmen who say things like "Bah, humbug" to wishes and dreams. But Karen Ann has been wishing for a horse "ever since I could really walk" and today the wish turn ed into a chestnut gelding. Karen Ann and her mother came here for the formal presen tation of the horse as a gift of more than 100 officers of the Hanover Bank, a staid financial institution down in Manhattan.

Dream Gets Boost Karen Ann, a fifth-grader, is not the type of dreamer who just sits there. She believes in giving a dream a boost. In this case, a letter did the trick. She wrote the bank offering her life savings of S24.03, plus "loving care," as a sealed bid for the champion race horse Nashua, or maybe another horse not quite so famous or costly. . For four summers, Karen Ann has been riding horses every chance she gets. She loves to draw and mostly she draws horses. Early this month she read that the Hanover Bank, as an executor of 'the William Woodward Jr. estate, was sell ing Nashua and the Belair Stud's 61 other horses. Money From Chores I Karen Ann gets a 60-cent weekly allowance for her Sat urday chores of scouring two sinks and doing household dust ing. Also, she has a little busi ness in the neighborhood of her home in Valhalla, N. Y., of tak ing care of people's dogs, when the masters go away. She took her S24.03 from the bank in Valhalla, dug out her Tax Funds Turned Over To County Treasurer Property tax funds totaling $366,570.63 were turned over to the county treasurer yester day by the tax collector. Of the total, 70.5S per cent went to schools; 14.43 to cities; 10.43, county; 2.94 to irrigation districts; and 1.67 to fire, water and sanitary districts.
