MU 5-6416 ILLINOIS VALLEY New Time Fouls Schedules Br HELEN BOTTEL Cave Junction Daylight sav ing time this week caused con siderable changes in the lives of Orgonians who live close to the California border. Mail on the Crescent City rural route is picked up and de livered almost an hour earlier each morning and afternoon, making it not only tough on mailmen Ed Holland who must hurry up his day to meet bay area schedules, but on others who are faced with a daily mail deadline. At the Redwood Inspection station, just across the state line, the problem is solved by setting the outside clock (for California bound tourist) on fast time, but leaving the office clock (seen mostly by local people) on Ore gon time. Doubly confused are those who live across the border in California but do their trading and schooling in Oregon. Those folks mainly ignore the Califor nia rule and worry along with out that extra hour of daylight.
