Children's Home Has Anniversary The state's only Protestant home for dependent children marks its.35th anniversary to day at its location three miles from Corvallis. The home was founded and has been maintained by the Oregon Woman's Christian Temperance Union with assist ance from a number of serv ice organizations, Sunday school classes, Granges, and private individuals. The children, from broken homes, are sent to the 285 acre farm home by country courts from throughout the state. As many as 12 to 15 children from Jackson county live at the home at one time, according to reports. Children between 5 and 21 years old are housed in cot tages at the home, with as many as 170 of them living there at one time. The boys are trained in farm and dairy work and the girls are given training in the domestic arts. In 1953 a chapel was built at the home, and a full time pastor is employed. The chil dren attend grade school a the home but when they reach high school age they commute to Corvallis for training.

ADDRESS with SIZE and STYLE NUMBER. - I By JOHN LOWRY UPI Correspondent Los Angeles (UPI A cham pion woman driver says males become cave men be hind the wheel. "When a man climbs into his car, he automatically puts that Stone Age chip on his gray flannel shoulder. He floorboards the gas pedal and sets out to show the world that he's at least as fast as Juan Fangio and twice as daring," said Mary Davis of West Hollywood,' a stock car racer and the only woman to win the Mobilgas Economy run. Miss Davis led the low priced car class in last year's contest, and ran again in this year's run from Los Angeles to Galveston, Tex. A Challenge "The average man you meet in traffic looks on his car as a symbol of personal superority," she said. "It's about all he has left to give him the kind of psychologi cal gratification which the Neanderthal man got from contemplating his stone ax. "He tries to turn tail-light to every car he sees. Every stop-light is a challenge, every car ahead of him a per sonal insult. "Let's face it, we'd all be safer if we took their cars away and gave them back their stone axes," she added. Miss Davis considers wom en superior drivers because "woman's deepest instinct is to seek security. When it comes to driving, this means she tries to save money. She avoids racing, which wastes gas, and she obeys traffic laws because she doesn't want to pay a fine. She just wants to get where she's going, but a man wants to make it a race." Economical Driving The tall, blonde driver be came interested in the sport while watching road races at Pebble Beach, Calif. She bought a foreign sportscar and won the first race she entered, at Santa Barbara several years ago, and now has 35 trophies to her credit one for every race she has entered. Miss Davis also is part owner of a restaurant in Bev erly Hills, where racing en thusiasts gather. She goes skin diving and aims to be come the world's richest woman. This champion driver, who traces her ancestors to a Cherokee Indian tribe, says the secret of economical driv ing is good driving. "Tf your gasoline budget needs trimming, drive with ordinary care and courtesy. You'll be surprised how fast those bills go down," she said.
