Young Farmers Plan
To Give Scholarship
The' Jackson County Youn
Farmers group has announced it
will present a $195 college schol
arship this year to a boy in the
county who will have graduated
from high school by this June,
and who plans to study agricul
ture in college.
Recipient of the scholarship
need not be a 1957 high school
graduate, but must have a high
school diploma, it was explained.
The award will be presented on
such basis as the boy's financial
need and desire to follow a
career in agriculture.
Funds Raised
The Young Farmers have
raised funds for the scholarship
through such activities as a food
booth, which the group sponsor
ed at the county iir.
At a meeting Monday night,
members heard LeRoy Olfen
bacher, Applegate. describe a
low-water bridge he has just
linishfl building.
The bridge, he said, is des
igned to prevent destruction by
high Bter. It stands four feet
above normal water stage and
is mounted on 13-inch beams
i sealed in concrete.
' S Inches Higher
Downstream end of the bridge
is six uiches higher than the up
stream end. He explained that
the downstream flow water ex
erts downward pressure on the
bridge to prevent bouyancy of
debris or force of the stream
current from tearing out the
beam? when the bridge is cover
ed with water.
! This design, he said, is used
for bridges over South American
j rivers, where flash floods are
; common and bridge destruction
had been extensive prior to use
! of this type of construction.

! gram was Robert Lichti, Crater

Morse Introduces
School Aid Bill
Washington (U.R) Sen.
Wayne Morse (D-Ore.) introduced
a bill today which would provide
$1 billion annually in aid for
school districts "without any
strings attached."
Morse offered the bill as an
alternative to the administra
tion's bill which proposes a four
year, S2.2 billion program of fed
eral aid for school construction.
He described the administration
plan as "too little and too late."
Under his plan, Morse said,
school districts could use their
federal aid "as needed for
salaries, maintenance, books or
new facilities" eliminating "any
possibility of federal control."
