Eugene Man Spends
Day !n Deep Canyon
Eugene (U.R) Edward Rans
dell Gregg, a 23-year-old Eugene
diesel mechanic, was reported in
fair condition Saturday at Sa
cred Heart hospital here after
spending nearly 24 hours at the
bottom of a 300-foot canyon in
sub-freezing weather.
Rescue crews brought Gregg
out about :30 a.m. Saturday
from the canyon along Highway
58 about 18 miles east of Oak
ridge. Doctors said he suffered
levere frostbite, bruises and
cuts.
Gregg had been dispatched at
3:30 a.m. Friday by his employ
er, the Cummings; Diesel com
pany of Eugene,to repair a
truck at Halfway House on High
way 58. When he hadn't return
ed by 8 p.m., the company called
state police.
A company search crew found
a spot where it appeared that
a vehicle might have gone off
the road but the searchers could
find no trace of Gregg at the
bottom of the canyon. They were
preparing to leave y$ien they
heard a noise. Investigating fur
ther, they found Gregg standing
alongside his panel truck. He
had been pounding the side of
the .truck with a wrench to at
tract attention.
A stretcher crew had to walk
a quarter of a mile up the road
to find a place to getdown into
the canyon to bring Sregg out.
He told police he twice had
attempted to climb out of the
canyon, covered by a foot of
snow, and once got within 10
feet of the top when he slid back.
About 26,000,000 families in
the U. S. engage in amateur pho
tography and snap about 1,500,
000 still pictures in an average
year's time.
As We Live
This Is the Day To
Turn Over A New Leaf
New Year's Day, in the minds
of most people, is the day of the
vear when they should turn over
I &r a new leaf in
their lives, dis
card the things
that proved
detrimental or
harmful to
them during
the past year,
and begin from
scratch, as re
formed p e'o-ple.

However, it rarely works out
that way.
Habits have a tendency to get
a hold on people. They make it
so much easier to do things in
the old, familiar way that people
stay in the ruts they have made
over the years. A week or even
a day alter JNew Year s, they
are back in the old, familiar
ruts of their lives, doing things
in the same old way.
The trouble with most people
is that tbey see so many things
in themselves they would like
to change that they bite off more
than they can chew. The result
is that they become discouraged
at the enormity of their task and
do little or nothing.
If you are one of the people
who made New Year's resolu
tions in the past and have found
they were never realized as the
new year progressed, here are
some suggestions that should
help you to have better success
this year than you have had be
fore: Hard To Change Trait
(1) Decide on one or two
things you would like to change.
Pick out from the many the ones
that would be most helpful to
you if they were changed and
concentrate on them. It is hard
to change a trait that has per
sisted for a long time and it will
take all your time and effort to
do this successfully.
(2) Convince yourself that you
By ELIZABETH HURLOCK, PH.D.
really want to change and that
you will be the one who will
profit most by the change. This
will give you the necessary mo
tivation to carry through, no
matter how rough the going is.
(3) Don't allow yourself, to be
come discouraged and disheart
ened if you do not see immediate
improvement or if you see your
self slipping backwards occasion
ally. It takes time to change. The
more often you allow yourself
to slip backwards, of course, the
longer the time needed for the
change will be.

be
from those who keep calm. Ev
erything arouses them easily to
emotional states, whether it be
fear, curiosity or anger. On the
other hand, their tendency to
get excited easily may come
from lack of experience. The
more experienced a person is,
other things being equal, the
better able he is to keep calm
and well-poised.
Giggling girls: "I have never
been able to understand why
girls giggle so much, especially
in their early teens, while boys
rarely giggle. Is this difference
due to the make-up of the two
sexes?" R. S. T.
(A) No There is no hereditary
difference in the make-up of
boys and girls responsible for
this difference in behavior. Gig
gling is frowned upon in boys
and is regarded as "sissy be
havior." Boys, therefore, ex
press their embarrassment and
self-consciousness and these are
what made girls giggle by other
nervous : mannerisms, such as
standing on one foot and then
the other, pulling at their ears,
twisting their hands nervously,
or blushing.
Home for elderly: "My mother
i is getting along in years and is
all alone except for her married
children. She wants to go to a
church home for elderly people.
Do you think she would be hap
py there?" U. B. T.
(AfeMany old people are hap
py in churcrfhomes because they
are with people whose interests
are similar to theirs and because
they do not feel they are impos
ing on their children by going
to live with them. The attitude
of the iperson who goes to live
in a home has a great deal to
do with the person's adjustment
to the home. Your mother's
wanting to spend her old age
there should make her adjust
well and be happy.

Sfafe Travel Shows
20 Per Cent Increase
Travel activity in Oregon
showed an increase of 20 per
cent in 1955, compared to 1954,
according to the Oregon Amer
ican Automobile association
club.
The increase was determined
by the amount of tourist mater
ial distributed, trip routings, in
quiries and other travel services
provided by the club.
Interest in foreign travel on
the part of Oregonians also
showed a strong increase in
1955. Car purchases in foreijgi
countries for Oregonians increas
ed 50 per cent over 1954, as did
automobile rentals for travel
aboard. Rail, air and steamship
reservations made by the club
showed an increase of 33 per
cent over the past year.

Services For Campbell
Of UP Held Saturday
New York (U.R) Funeral
services were held Saturday for
Charles E. Campbell, 61, form
er secretary of the United Press.
Campbell died of a brain hem
orrhage Thursday. He was strick

never regained consciousness.

Thomas Moore
Suppose your first three off
spring were girls. How far
would you go in trying for a
son? A fellow I know of is the
nintrf child of his parents. The
first eight were girls. His moth
er and family had intended to
limit their children to four. But
they were determined to have a
son. When their first son was
born the father was 51 and the
mother 43. q
Briefly
The name Dorothy means
"gift of God." Mabel means
"lovable." That of Harriet means
"head of the house." ... It was
Bellamy Brooks who observed,
"That which is to be loved long
must be loved with reason rather
than passion." (Note that could
be why so many so-called
"oomph girls" have marriages
that are so brief.)
Asking
Queries from clients. Q. Who
starred in the silent film, "Why
Change Your Wife?" A. That
picture had an all star cast which
included Thomas Meighan, Glor
ia Swanson, Bebe Daniels and
Theodore Kosloff . Q. What was
the name of the pitcher who had
the "Indian sign" on Babe
Ruth and repeatedly made the
Sultan of Swat" look ridicul
ous? A. Hub Pruett of the St.
Louis Browns. Hub really had
Ruth's number. One season Babe
went to bat against Pruett 16
times and struck out 13 times!
Get It Right
Again I note the remark,
"What this country needs is a
good five-cent cigar," credited to
former - Vice-President Thomas
R. Marshall. That crack was orig

Marshall was quoting Hubbard.
Get it right!
Interim Commiflee
To Meet Tuesday
Salem (U.R) Modification
of the state law governing regis
tration of voters and repeal of
the petition method of placing
names on the primary election
ballot will be studied by the
Legislative Interim committee
on Elections here Tuesday.
The committee, headed by
Sen. Pat Lonergan of Portland,
will also consider proposals to
make registration lists available
at cost for partisan political pur
poses, to change the present sys
tem of filing registration cards
and to permit registrars to con
duct neighborhood canvasses for
the purpose of registering quali
fied citizens.
Senators Recommend
New Menial Hospital
Salem (U.R) Two Oregon
state senators Saturday recom
mended that the new state men
tal hospital to be built in the
Portland area be named for the
late Dr. F. H. Dammasch, who
sponsored the institution.
The recommendation, made in
a letter to Gov. Paul Patterson,
Secretary of State Earl T. New
bry and . State Treasurer Sig
Unander, was made by State
Sens. J. O. Johnson of Tigard,
Republican, and Monroe Sweet
land of Milwaukee, a Democrat.
"We would consider it alto
gether appropriate to make this
great new institution a memo
rial to the physician and states
man who sponsored it the Dr.
F. H. Dammasch Hospital," the
letter said.
Dr. Dammasch died in Port
land Thursday after suffering
a stroke last Mondaye
Successful Host
How many drinks should a
fifth of whisky provide? In a
pamphlet titled "How to Be a
Successful Host," one S. Jesse
Robinson says a bottle of that
capacity should provide 18
drinks. No doubt a fifth of whis
ky so apportioned would tend
to make a man a successful liost.
However, to what extent would
it help a man to be a successful
bar owner? My understanding is
that the bartender in the average
cafe is expected to get 25 drinks
from a fifth of whisky. If I am
wrong, please correct me.
So They Say
Men born under Sagittarius
(Nov. 23-Dec. 22) are inclined to
rush thoughtlessly into a love
affair and to become quickly in
volved xo rne extent ot an en
gagement to be married. That's
why Sagittarians break more en-
gagements to be married than
men born under any other sign.
Or, so say the stargazers.
o
Forgotten Man
It is about time the race tracks
of this country erected a monu
ment in memory of Pierre Oiler.
Pierre invented the pari-mutuel
system of wagering on thorough
breds. That was in Paris in 1865,
The Oiler system called for tak
ing only 5 per cent of the money
wagered. That is about the right
percentage. Race tracks could
give 2 per cent to the State gov
ernment and take 3 per cent for
themselves and still make plenty
ot money.
Sidelights
What has been the silliest song
title of the past 20 years? How
about that of the song titled
"Blitzkrieg Baby, You're My
ltsy-Bitsy Bombshell of Love"?
. . . As for "Pen Pal" type cor
respondence leading to love and
marriage, I knew of a happily
married woman whose husband
proposed by mail without seeing
her or her photograph. She
weighed 300.
