The day isn't too far away
hen the quickest drive to the
Oregon coast from Portland
will be to the bustling town of
Tillamook. A hishway project
In the middle of Tillamook and
repair of the Bayocean penin
sula at the mouth of Tillamook
bay have filled the town with
construction workers. But the
project most eagerly watched
by many Tillamook residents
Is on the road to Portland.
This is the construction of a
cut-off road from the Sunset
highway to the Wilson River
highway, which will make the
total mileage from Portland to
Tillamook only 72 miles, com
pared to 79 miles to Cannon
Beach or Seaside.
When this ten-mile stretch of
road, extending from Banks on
the Sunset highway to Glen
wood on the Wilson River high
way, is paved late this fall,
motorists will be able to drive
to Tillamook without going
through the towns of Beaver
ton, Hillsboro and Forest
Grove.
Loop Drive la Scenic
And the loop trip to Tilla
mook, along the coast to the
Sunset junction north of Can
non Beach and returning via
the Sunset highway will be an
enjoyable one-day trip that
might rival the ML Hood loop
highway. The section of coast
seen in the trip is on of the
most spectacular areas of high
way 101. and the total loop
route from Portland will be
only 192 miles.
To preview the loop trip, we
took the Oregon State Motor
association's white motorlog
Ford out the Sunset highway to
Cannon Beach, where we turned
aside to drive the twisting road
to Ecola state park and call on
Mr. and Mrs. George Marlman.
Marlman has been park care
taker for 14 years, and they
live in a house overlooking the
Sea Lion rocks. The sea lions
were there on the rocks when
we arrived, and could easily be
seen from the Marlman home.
There are many deer in the
park area, and Marlman has
tamed some of them. On one
occasion, he stepped to his back
door and called the deer to eat
some of the apples they love.
Seventeen deer showed up for
the feast.

But most of the deer are
eventually killed outside- the
park by hunters. One year
Marlman painted one buck's
antlers red, and these got it
safely through the hunting sea
son. We traveled south past Hay
stack rock, and at Silver Point
stopped to admire the view.
When we shifted our eyes from
the Pacific surf to the strip
of land between the highway
and the coast, we saw five elk
grazing in the lush grasslands,
an indication of the true wilder
ness area through which the
highway runs.
In a few miles, we came to
one of the most popular over
night camping spots on this sec
tion of the coast. This is Oswald
West state park, originally
called Short Sands state park,
but renamed this year in honor
of the ex-governor of Oregon
who has done so much to pre
serve the beauties of the Ore
gon coast.
Mountain, Cape Included
The park includes one of the
coastline's lushest rain forests,
as well as Neahkahnie moun
tain. Cape Falcon and a shel
tered cove which has long been
a favorite picnic spot and
refuge for fishing vessels.
From highway parking areas
two trails lead to the beach,
about one half mile from the
highway. One trail follows
Neahkahnie creek and the other
Short Sand creek. The two
streams join before reaching
the ocean.
People visiting the park must
be hikers, but they can carry
camping equipment on one of
several wheelbarrows provided
at the parking areas. There are
20 camp sites, with a charge of
75 cents per night per car.
There is good surf swimming
at Pirate Cove at the end of the
trail, with the mouth of the
streams making a safe, shallow

place for small children to get
their water fun. The picnie
tables, stoves and fireplaces
were being well used when we
viewed the park from Falcon
point, where a flat rock shelf
provides an excellent surf fish
ing spot.
A few miles south of the park
we came to Nehalem.
We passed some fine swim
ming beaches at Manhattan
Beach, Twin Rocks and Rock
away. At Bar View we watched
surf fishermen trying their luck
off the rocks, then swung along
Tillamook bay.
Just north of Tillamook is a
business enterprise which is
also a prime tourist attraction.
This is the cheese plant of the
Tillamook County Creamery as
sociation, the largest and new
est of ten plants owned co
operatively by a group of 900
Tillamook dairymen.
Its parking lot is always
filled with cars of tourists, who
can take free tours through the
plant daily from 9 a. m. to 4
p. m. We parked the motorlog
car in the lot and joined a
group making a tour, helping
ourselves first to free chunks
of mild and sharp cheese.
All the processes of cheese
making were explained by a
guide, and we shivered in a cold
room at 40 degrees temperature
while he pointed out the large
cheeses being aged, including
some gigantic 500-pound
cheeses which are sold to super
markets. Interchange Being Built
The Wilson river highway is
receiving a new entrance out
of Tillamook which will elimi
nate several curves.
We soon came to the point
oast of Glen wood where the new
cut-off road will join the Wil
son River highway. A large in
terchange is being built here,
and barriers across the as yet
un paved road close it to traffic.
It cuts straight and wide al
most directly east.
Work began on the new
stretch about two years ago.
W. C (Dutch) Williams, state
highway engineer, estimates
hopefully that it will be' com
pleted and open to traffic by
late September or early Oc
tober. In only a few minutes the
town of Banks was before us.
and we drove through it and
joined the Sunset highway. We
were practically to Portland,
and after leaving Tillamook had
not had to enter any major
towns. The return trip from the
coast had been one of the eas
iest we had ever driven.
Hazing Victim Finds
Life at College Dull
Claremont. Calif.-U.R) Tedd
Determan found life fairly dull
today at Claremont Men's col
lege after returning from a 48
hour spree in New York.
The 18-year-old president of
the sophomore class returned to
the college campus Tuesday.
Only two days before freshman
class members as part of hazing
had put him on a New York
bound airliner.
Determan arrived at Interna
tional airport in nearby Los Art
geles and was cheered by a small
group of students as he rode off
in a Cadillac convertible.
The hazing victim, however,
appeared unshaken and he ad
mitted he had a lot of fun. He
said no revenge was planned

Loan Officials Urged
To Change Attitudes
Miami Beach. Fla. U.R) A
research psychologist told a
group of loan company officials
today they should change their
lending attitude and make peo
ple feel proud instead of ashamed
to borrow money.
Dr. Ernest Dichter, president
of the Institute for Motivational
Research, Croton - on - Hudson,
N.Y., said the companies should
strive to make borrowing a sym
bol of confidence in the future.
The- old attitude with all its
taboos and deep emotional im
plications is fast giving way to
the "new psychology of moral
sanction in our society," he
stated.
Dichter 's remarks came at the
advertising session of the 42nd
annual convention of the Nation
al Consumer Finance association.
Segregationists Push
Campaign Against
School Integration
By UNITED PRESS
Segragationists waged cam
paigns by picketing and words
today in both the oldest and the
newest of the 1956 school in
tegration disputes.
Gov. Frank Clement of Ten
nessee, who used troops to quell
the nation's first desegration riot
this fall, was attacked by a
speaker in his own state Tuesday
night and by pickets in Texas.
Some 900 persons heard a
rally speaker at Lake City,
Tenn., accuse Clement of using
the National Guard as a "goon
squad" to break up protests
against integration at Clinton,
Tenn.
Picket Hotel
Twenty-five persons from the
Houston, Tex., White Citizens
Council picketed the Shamrock
Hilton hotel where Clement ad
dressed a Zionist fund-raising
dinner. They carried signs say
ing, "Judas Clement betrayed
the people of Tennessee . . ."
Also in Texas some 200 white
pickets turned back a Negro stu
dent and a Negro attorney from
Lamar State College of Tech
nology at Beaumont, which has
become the latest trouble spot
in the South's controversy over
court-ordered mixed classrooms.
Some of the pickets "talked"
to Attorney T. R? Jones. legal
spokesman for the Negro stu
dents who have enrolled in the
college, and to an unidentified
student arriving with him. Both
left without incident.
Students Protest Picketing
Students at Lamar themselves
protested the picketing and
about 400 signed a petition de
manding removal of the pickets.
About 60 to 70 officers in
cluding two Texas Rangers were
on hand to prevent trouble.
Clement, Bible-quoting key
noter of the Democratic Nation
al Convention, has repeatedly
defended his use of troops at
Clinton.
"So help me God." he told
the Zionists, "I will preserve
law and order as far as Tennes
see is concerned as long as I am
governor."
Benson Cites Action
Taken for Benefit
Of Family Farmer
Huntley, 111. (U.P.) Secre
tary of Agriculture Ezra T. Ben
son said today the Eisenhower
administration has "taken more
constructive action for the ben
efit of the family farm" than any
previous administration in years.
He accused Democrats of mak
ins "deliberately misleading,
careless and irresponsible state
ments" about rthe administra
tion's attitude towards the fam
ily farmer.
C"--res 'Utterly False'
"The facts reveal how utterly
fplse and absurd are the
charges," Benson said in -a
speech nrep-ired for dedication
of the Thor Research Center for
B't F?rm Living.
The speech is the first of
about 20 Benson will ma'e on
an 18-state swing through the
farm belt the West and a few
eastern states. He will extsnd
ereetinEs to the American Butter
Institute and attend an Illinois
Chamber of Commerce lunch in
Cbicaeo Thursday.
Benson said present farm
problems have been building up
for 10 years and cannot be solved
overnight.
"We can pull no magic rabbits
from the hat no administration
can." he said. "But we are going
in the right direction."
Benson said some opponents
of the GOP farm program are
"more interested in administer
ing a sedative rather than a
cure."
"There are those who have
nothing more to offer than going
back again tc the same weary
programs that already have
brought so much grief, and so
much of the cost-price squeeze,
poon farmers," he said.
Family Farm Changing
The aericulture secretary said
the fami'y farm is changing be
cause a farmer no longer can op
erate successfully with "one
mule and one plow." He said
modern equipment requires
more land for efficient produc
tion and this, in turn, reduces
th number of farms.
But he said more than eight
million farmers left their farms
riurin" Democratic administration-!
from 1933 to 1952 while in
the last two years the farm popu
lation has increased.
Resident Reports Two
Cows Wounded This Year
Ed Crowe, who lives on Sticky
lane, Medford, reported yester
day that hunters have wounded
two of his cows which were
grazing near his home.
He said cows have been shot
during the past two years. He
said the land was posted.
Florida College Turns
Out Managers fo Team
Lakeland, Fla. U.R) Many
colleges turn out baseball play
ers, but Florida Southern Col
lege turns out business man
agers for the game.
Florida Southern will hold its
eighth annual baseball admin
istration school beginning Nov.
9. The intensive training con
tinues through Dec. 1.
"This course has been de
signed by baseball men for base
ball men," a college spokesman
said.
A comprehensive study of the
National Association Agreement
is included in the course, since
all functions of club, manage
ment are based upon the rules
and regulations of the agree
ment. Students also consider play
er contracts and paper work,
tickets and tax laws, legal re
sponsibility and insurance,
finances, accounting, payroll
system, and park maintenance.
The study of daily game op
erations includes talks about
stadium personnel, reserved and
box seat sales, ball boys, parking
problems, and police protection.
Thief Takes $647
As Shoppers Watch
Great Falls, Mont. (U.R) A
thief managed to steal 647 silver
dollars from a downtown win
dow display, while two window
shoppers looked on.
The onlookers saw two hands
reach through the back curtains
again and again to scoop up the
money, which was part of a dis
play of one thousand of the
"cartwheels."
Thinking the hands belonged
to a store employee, they did
not report the incident for sev
eral hours. By then, the collec
tor of silver dollars was well on
his way with loot weighing
about 40 pounds.

Poland's Internal Difficulties
Declared Spark for New Riots
London U.PJ Communist
Poland is torn by internal diffi
culties that could erupt into new
riots, diplomatic reports from
behind the Iron Curtain said to
day. The high sources said the War
saw regime had drawn a stern
rebuke from the Kremlin for
"sloppy" handling of the Poznan
riot trials.
News dispatches from Poland
indicated the trials have not fol
lowed the usual pattern of the
Communist "show trials." De
fendants have recanted confes
sions and have countered with
charges of police brutality.
Iron Curtain sources said Rus
sia criticized conduct of the
trials on the ground that they
are undermining Communist dis
cipline and control in the satel
lite states.
Denounce Police Methods
Three men on trial at Poznan
on charges of murdering a secu
rity guard electrified the court
with open denunciation of police
methods. The prosecutor himself
refused to ask for the death pen
alty and announced an investi
gation of police brutality was be
ing made.
The reliable Paris newspaper
Le Monde Tuesday reported Pol
ish Premier Josef Cyrankiewicz
and Marshal Konstantin Rokos
sovsky, the Red army veteran
who is Poland's defense minis
ter,, are feuding over the prog
ress of the "deStalinization pro
gram" in the Soviet satellite.
Cyrankiewicz was said to fa
vor a speedup of the liberaliza
tion program while Rokossovsky
wants to keep the brakes on.
Cyrankiewicz is regarded as
comparatively "easy going." Ro
kossovsky is an iron-fisted Com
munist military man with blind
obedience to the party.
Inmates. Riot
Letter Urges Rapid
Claiming of Sox
Rutland, Vt. (U.R) Two Ver
mont county agents maintained
their reputations for honesty by
inserting the following notice
in the Rutland County Exten
sion Service newsletter:
"A party or parties unknown
left three pair of sox in the ex
tension office. If you have to
search the house for more than
an hour for a clean pair, these
may be yours.
"Please claim as soon as pos
sible as they fit both county
agents!"
Le Monde, in a dispatch from
Poznan, said Poland s internal
situation had become even more
serious than it was when Poz
nan workers staged their three
day "food and freedom" rebel
lion last June.
Dispatches from Poznan Tues
day reported that young inmates
of a correctional institution near
the city broke out and rioted
through the streets shouting for
"freedom for our brothers from
Poznan trials."
The Poznan trials opened last
Thursday. Three men were ac
cused of murder, and a total of
22 of lesser crimes.
