Is That So?
Editor's note: A treat American
heritage, assuredly, is our outdoors.
Now. with vacations rolline alone.
how can we best make the springy
forest trail, the star-filled desert sky
a part of our being? How can we take
our boys and girls into our wilderness
so they'll enjoy it? And, in view of
rising costs, with the least expense?
And considering our old bones, most
comfortably?
To answer these questions, The Mall
Tribune has asked Ranger Naturalist
Gene Burns to write a series of articles
on camping, drawing on his outdoor
experiences which range from camp
ing in Alaska to the Everglades of
Florida.
Among the articles Gene Burns will
write are: What's the best buy in out
door clothing; Basic camp cooking
irom tne morning's napjacKs to tne
evening's skilletful of trout; How to
entertain children in camp he says.
among other things: "Stuff 'em with
scorcnea marsnmallows, hot popcorn,
and adventure stories. And plan
plenty of things to do because young
people's interests change on the half-
hour"; and. Hazards real and fancied.
Ranger Burns' down-to-earth mon
ey-saving series will run in The Mail
Tribune Mondays. May we suggest
that you clip these articles and paste
them in a scrapbook for future camp
ing trips.

person, more or less, and if you
are reading this, brother you've

learn how to swim. On a pack-
trip, then learn to ride a horse
and adapt muscles to that sad
dle spread. On a fly-fishing trip,
then learn to cast a fly well.. If
shooting, then learn the proper
way of handling a gun. You can
easily find experts in your com
munity who will help you. But
this calls for making your plans
not just weeks but months in
advance. And rehearsing.
In addition, before you go
camping, see your local Red
Cross chapter and find out about
the next First Aid course. This
is most essential. At least one
person in your group must know
the rudiments.
Finally, count on this for sure:
on a camping trip there is one
thing you cannot have too much
of a generous supply of good,
sound woodlore. It will bring
you peace of mind and give you
much greater enjoyment. And
that's what we're seeking in the
outdoors. Right?

campfire in the deep forest or
the majestic swing of the stars
across the illimitable dome of
heaven.
Let's get down to brass tacks.
What's on tap? A picnic? An
overnight camp? A week end
trip? A two week's pack trip?
month's camp trip?
Regardless, if this is your first
experience, then the more you
prepare for it the better you
will enjoy it. The secret of suc
cessful camping is to get ready
well in advance and rehearse
for it. '
First you must decide well
ahead on where you are going,
how many of you there will
be, and the kind of things you
are going to do. Better confer
with people who have been
there; read up on the area; get
maps ' in short, familiarize
yourself thoroughly.
At the outset let's not kid
ourselves. If we're going camp
ing outdoors, we are going to
match our wits with the ele
ments; we are going to cope with
ants and mosquitoes; with sud
den rains perhaps even cloud
bursts; but once we know what
to do, man alive, we'll come
home refreshed, and a darned
sight better for our experiences.
First Aid Study Urged
Now then, what are we going
to do on our first trip? Then

Roosevelt Silent
On Marriage Rumor
Los Angeles OJ.R) Rep.
James Roosevelt (D-Calif.J, was
silent today over reports he
would marry a secretary when
his divorce from Mrs. Romelle
Roosevelt becomes final in June
but did not deny them.
"I don't comment on my pri
vate life," was the lanky Dem
ocrat's reply. "My decree is not
final and it would be improper
for me to comment at this time."
A close friend of Roosevelt
announced here Friday that the
congressman planned to marry
Mrs. Anita Owen, Detroit.
Roosevelt, here to conduct a
smog hearing, refused to deny or
confirm the report.
There was no mention of a wo
man by that name in his wife's
sensational charges in her 1954
divorce action. In her separate
maintenance suit, Mrs. Roose-
velt charged him with miscon
duct with three women.

when Goodrich reservoir gave
way and a wall of cascading wa

wide down about seven miles
of the Baker valley.

ally. Officials said that damage
to farm houses, buildings, and
lands totalled more than $500,-

was set at $180,000.
Officials said the dam, built

The same dam was washed

seven. No one was injured or
killed Friday when the 50-foot
wall of water tumbled through
the gaping dam.
