It didn't take long for Potpourri to decide that the "Lum
ber Jills" pictured on today's front page aren't ordinary
femmes. All "are not only exceptionally attractive, but have
personality plus and even the men admit they are efficient.
(It was Photographer Bob Vroman, by the way, who came up
with the appropriate headline for the page.)
For some time we'd been nursing the idea of putting Mrs.
Alford Cooper into pictures and print, and after that the
page just grew. After the interviews, Potpourri's head was
buzzing with phrases and logging and lumber talk that we
hadn't heard for a long time (Having been raiaea In logging
camps and lumber towns, some of it wasn't unfamiliar.)
Mrs. Cooper said she started assisting her husband with
the logging because reliable help was hard to hire and be
cause "I'm stubborn." Her husband encouraged her to drive
the big log-hauling truck, telling her that if she could drive
a pickup,, she could drive a log truck. The Coopers were
logging off Board mountain in the Shady Cove area last
week, and Mrs. C. said it's practically straight up and down.
"Aren't you afraid?" we asked and Mrs. C. said "Not any
more, I just come down in second under and hope I won't
have to get out and take the fire extinguisher to the brakes."
The big trucks, of course, carry water tanks which run- cool
water on the brakes when the going is tough. .
Mrs. Cooper likes to garden and when she wanted some
new flower beds, she hauled the top soil, spread it, built a
brick wall and did a few other chores. The Coopers have a
daughter, JoAnn, who works in Medford.
Mrs. Cooper's friends - women, at that - say "she's cute
as can be when she's dressed up for a party" and another
woman, Mrs. O. A. Eden of the Red Cross, is filled with praise
about how Mrs. Cooper was right in pitching when a woman
was lost in the forest in that area not long ago.
Mrs. Lewis Simpson may not be able to operate a logging
truck, but she's a whizz at taking and sending -messages over
the Tree Farm association's radio system. Those of the lumber
industry in the valley are downright lavish in their praise of
Martha Simpson. During the emergency brought on by the
lost woman, Mrs. Simpson scarcely left the radio set for al
most two days until the woman was found.
This unique radio service of the Tree Farm association
has been the subject of nation-wide stories, broadcasts and
television shows, and Mrs. S. is accustomed to photographers
roaming around in her home on King street. Since the Simp
sons maintain a 24-hour radio service, even the older chil
dren, Ferris, freshman at Southern Oregon college, and
Martha, 15, take their turn at the set when necessary. Susan,
12,and Sally, 6, also know all about the radio machinery.
Mr. Simpson, known to everyone as "Doc", took the re
porter into the kitchen to show us the auxiliary equipment
which "allows Martha to get dinner without burning the
pork chops. In another room is a set over which Mrs. S
monitors Elk Lumber company's private radio set-up as a
service to that firm. "If I want to eat a meal in peace, I go
to a restaurant says Martha.
The Simpsons and Potpourri talked a little about the
Okanogan country in Washington, where Martha and Doc,
Pappy and Potpourri all lived at one time. Pappy and Pot
pourri were young marrieds, Martha was a high school stu
dent in Loomis, Wash., and Doc was a forester for the United
States Forest service in Okanogan county. The Chelan forest
was the largest in the U.S. at that time, and since has been
broken up in to smaller units.
Men and women of the logging industry are eager for
the rest of the county to understand their work and its prob
lems. Mrs. Leo Hoag, who is secretary for the Oregon Log
and Lumber Truckers' league, points out that this group is a
non-profit organization of log truckers, working together to
further and better the log-hauling industry through courtesy,
safety, cooperation with industry and with legislative and
law-enforcing agencies.
The Coopers, and others, point out that loggers and
lumbermen, on whom so many pay checks depend, are just
hard-working law-abiding people like those in any other
industry.
BiU and Dorothy Shadwick came to Jackson county from
California in 1947 and wouldn't go b-ck to California for
anything. Mr. Shadwick, a salvage logger for Elk Lumber
company, says he was raised in Pasadena, and thinks that
the upper Rogue country is practically paradise in compari
son. He explained how the "salvage logging," which takes
out the over-ripe and diseased trees, is part of the conserva
tion program of the lumber industry in Oregon.
Lucille Lowman and her husband, J. R. Lowman, operate
two wholesale lumber businesses from the same home, office.
The Lowmans built an attractive new home in the Wilson
park addition, adding a room planned especially to hold their
desks, typewriters and teletype machine. Mr. L. is also a
transplanted Californian who has come to dike the Rogue
valley's fishing and hunting almost as much as he did San
Francisco's fog horns and big city excitement.
Potpourri didn't spend all her time last week with loggers
and lumbermen. Part of it was spent "politicking" and sym
pathizing with candidates and their families who lead truly
hectic lives just before election. When Governor and Mrs.
Robert Holmes finally arrived in Medford Friday after plane
trouble, Mrs. Holmes was wearing a chic green wool suit
with a furry felt hat of orange tone with feather trim. Her
shoes and hand bag were brown alligator. ;
For Mrs. Holmes and others the campaign is a ceaseless
round of speeches, meetings, dinners, teas, coffees, hurrying
here and there and being pleasant and friendly even when
bone tired or half asleep from the heavy schedule.
Every election year, about this time, Potpourri wonders
if there isn't a less expensive and easier way to elect offi
cials for a democracy .-O.S.
