Pickin' Pears
By SID HOLLINGSWORTH
There is at least one thing
the pear growers of the valley
will not have to worry about this
year. The labor supply will not
be overcrowded by one group
of pickers, as the following
'notice" proclaims:
"We wish to cancel our con
tract for handling the picking of
your fruit for the season. There
are many reasons for our action,
to wit: your trees are too high;
our men are experts and demand
the best the fruit is of poor
grade; your price of 13 cents
a box is too low for this type
of picker, however, the men
been released from any
obligation to the present compa
ny and are on their own. Many
of them can be contacted at one
of the following places (Names
deleted). If, however, the situa
tion gets acute, we may con
sider helping the Medford grow
ers, provided they roll the trees
into Camp White. It is ad
dressed to the Fruit Growers
association, USA
Gladys McCracken, the new
dietitian, coming from the VA
hospital at the northern tip of
Chesapeake Bay, finds the moun
tainous surroundings and clim
ate here stimulating enough to
offer a cuilinary tribute to the
region.
"As a newcomer to Oregon,
I would like to mention a few
of the spices I have found here,"
' ahe writes. "The crisp peppery
nights, the warm sunny days
like chili in the beans. The
aroma of burning wood from
the lumber mills, like cinnamon
and nutmeg in the pie. The sun
shining down on forests gives
the added tang of allspice. The
lift of snow capped mountains
is the touch of rosemary in the
casserole. The gardens and
groves of fruit trees are the
solid seasoning of salt. The cor
dial friendliness of the people
the all pervading warmth of a
medley of spices."
The outstanding find of the
season, so far as playing ability
goes at Memorial Field, is Ellen
Callahan, center fielder of the
Dairy Maids. The fans have ac
cepted her as their own. and
anyone watching her field, bat
and run. cannot help but wonder
where she gets all that baseball
instinct.
In doing what comes naturaly,
she has a good coach in her dad,
Sly Callahan, who runs the
Dairy Maids and is responsible
for the pep and interest generat
ed in his aggregation of girl
Softball players.
But Ellen Callahan has the
professional manner which some
times goes with a great name.
There aren't any Callahan greats
.in baseball. But in looking over
the record, one name appears,
which starts at the beginning of
organized baseball.
It is that of Jimmy Callahan,
who joined the White Sox with
Clark Griffith at the turn of the
century and became a great
pitcher, manager and player.
Senator Wayne Morse has
written to Henry C. Lanigan, a
domiciliary member, that the
House of Representatives has
passed HR 52, and that it has

also been approved in the Sen
ate. "The nation has a great ob
ligation to provide adequately
for those whose health was im
paired, defending their country
in time of war, and I hope this
increase in their compensation
can be adopted promptly," he
declared.
Martin J. Hansen has been
named to head the reorganized
Garden Club of Camp White.
Hansen returned here frnm Port
land VA hospital recently. He
is a veteran of 17 years in the
Army transport service as stew
ard. Hansen left the service after
WW II. He feels that after his
life at sea, some of the things
he learned about planting and
growing when he lived on a
farm as a boy in Wisconsin
would furnish an interesting
change.
A dozen men with experience
at railroading met informally
Wednesday night at the Arts and
Crafts railroad room. They com
pared notes on the thousand and
one incidents connected with
handling trains and locomotives,
which are a part of the tradi
tion of the rails.
Several suggestions were of
fered to Walter Holman, who
is building the model system at
the domiciliary.
Work has been completed on
the theater, available now for
stage shows and other presenta
tions. Delay in completing ar
rangements for the new movies
prevents the showing of regular
first run pictures and the small
projector will be used pending
arrival of the special equipment
needed.
Gene Orr, national rehabilita
tion representative, announced
at the picnic area dedication
exercises in the ball park Sun
day that the American Legion
has taken action looking toward
authorization of an increase of
100 beds in the overall capactiy
of the domiciliary.
Department Commander Hug
gins and Past Commander Clyde
Dickey also addressed the gath
ering of VAVS and VA officials
and members. Dickey presented
a plaque ioj the barbecue grill,
which was donated " by the
Legion.
