Landowners Object to Road Right of Way Yreka Five landowners ap peared before Siskiyou County Supervisors this week opposing county demands for a 40-foot rieht of way on Sawmill Lane rd. from the Klamath River highway to Buckhorn Lodge rd. if the road, now private prop erty, is to be accepted as a county road. Supervisor Don Avery told the grpup that a county set-back ordinance would, in any case, prohibit any building closer than 50 feet from the roads center line, if it were accepted by the county. One of the landowners, who said he also represented the Happy Camp Cemetery associa tion, told supervisors that his association would fight any at tempt to move boundaries of the cemetery. The cemetery bound ary, he explained, is already about ten feet further back from the road than surrounding prop erties. The landowner also said that a 40 foot right of way would require moving of two or three houses on lots already too cramped. The Ohio State Capitol at Columbus took 22 years to build.

That is in spite of the fact that sons of major executives and owners of big business occupy substan tial portions of top-level jobs. According to W. Lloyd War ner, University of Chicago so ciologist, "there is no evidence that opportunity for sons of farmers, laborers and white col lar workers is decreasing. In fact, movement from these back grounds into the 'business elite takes place in greater numbers today than it did a year ago." Speaking at a meeting of the University's Citizens Board in Chicago, Warner said that big business is becoming more flexi ble by obtaining its leaders in increasing numbers from all parts of our society. According to Warner, over 30 per cent of the men who hold top positions are primarily from white collar, laboring or farm backgrounds. Marrying the boss' daughter won't help, Warner said. In fact, "the business man's ad vancement was actually slower if he married the boss' daugh ter instead of marriage at his own social level." Raft and Helicopter To Aid in Rescues Fort Riley, Kan. U.R Air rescue of persons maroonedby flood or snow may be much easier in the future, thanks to helicopters and some construc tive thinking by a Fort Riley officer. Lt. Col. Gerald H. Shea of Carmel, Calif., has found a way to suspend a four-man rubber raft below a helicopter. The plan also includes two-way communication between pilot and raft when the "chopper" cannot land to pick up its cargo. Shea, who commands the Army Aviation training unit at Fort Riley, got the idea when the New York area was flooded last summer. - The raft has a light platform and a collapsing railing to pro vide extra safety in case chil dren or injured persons are being carried. It is stored be neath the helicopter by means of standard bomb shackles. The raft is ready to use after it is released and dropped to the ends of four 30-foot nylon ropes.
