ARMSTRONG 1 w-r EUrtw, TtM Ortooniaa f EVEN for the longtime resi dent of the Pacific Northwest, sated ai he is with the sight of mountains, the first glimpse of the Great Tetons is a thrill ing experience one bell not coon forget. 1 Driving south out of Yellow stone National Park on oar mo torlog tour for the Oregon State Motor Assn., we came upon the Tetons with dramatic suddenness in the late after noon. We must warn you that they're a sight to make you throw on the brakes and grab for your camera, as you see them thrusting their grotesque, jagged spires into the blue sky, towering more than 7,000 feet above the more-than-mile-high surface of Jackson Lake. The Grand Tetons are not a Barge range as far as moun jtain ranges go, only 45 miles long, but there are 11 major peaks in this short distance. That's roughly as many major (peaks as there are in the Cas cade range in all of washing- ion and Oregon. The Tetons are probably the nation's most striking exam ples of the fault-block type of moumams, wnere a gigantic block of the earth's crust has been lifted or thrust up alone the line of a fault, or crack, in the earth s surface. Over the centuries, wind, frost, water and glaciers have carved this mammoth block into peaks, I ridges, crevasses and tiny, high mountain valleys with 1 their jewel-like alpine lakes. At the foot of the Tetons is the Jackson Hole country with its 23 lakes, the largest being 'Jackson Lake, 14 miles long. Born in Yellowstone Park to Khe north, the still-young Snake Kiver flows into and out of Jackson Lake, just started on the long journey that will take it through Idaho, down the Oregon-Idaho border and through 'controversial Hells Canyon, to 'join fmally with the mighty Columbia. The Grand Tetons and the Jackson Hole country in the northwest corner of Wyoming, have some historical ties with Scientists Produce Evidence That Fear Can Bring By DELOS SMITH UPI Science Editor New York-DPD-Science has produced evidence that a strong emotion like fear can squeeze the heart and thus cause a faint. The scientists who produced it spoke espe- "! cially of brides and grooms who faint on "t i o i o UfM steps. Dclos Smiia How ever they got their evidence not from brides and grooms but from men undergoing another ireigmening experience men who were, in dental chairs having a tooth or two pulled out. Emotion Can Do It The faint has scientific fas- ' cination. Often emotion alone sets off the dramatic physical event a person collapses, un conscious. If people's minds and bodies were less tightly tied together, that kind of faint would never happen. But how are they tied to gether for fainting purposes? 4-H Club Hews - Buttered Buns The Buttered Buns 4-H club met Oct. 28 at the home of the leader, Mrs. Barnes. Seven old members and seven new members were present. New officers were elected.

Due to our large number of members, we have decided to hold all our meetings at the Dowell home. All members were present, and we were happy to wel come two new members, Susie Harper and Regina Krambeal. Refreshments were served by Mrs. Kermit DeHaas.

The area that is now the Grand Teton National Park was discovered by John Colter, a hired hunter who accompa nied Lewis and Clark to the Pacific and who left them to join some trappers, midway on their return trek. The following year, 1807, on an exploration trip for Man uel Lisa, a fur trader. Colter became the first white man to enter the Jackson Hole region. He also discovered the coun try to the north mat now is Yellowstone National Park. The Astor Fur Expedition crossed the Jackson Hole on its way to Astoria ki 1811, and made its way over the Grand Tetons by way of Teton Pass. This pass now is crossed by Wyoming State Highway 22, the only road ever to be carved across these rugged moun tains. For several decades, this area was a favorite haunt of the Mountain Men. attracted to the Jackson Hole by the bea ver which nourished in the marshes of the area. Such men as Jedediah Smith, Jim Bride- er and David Jackson passed this way, and the country bears the name of the latter, given to it by his partner, Capt. William Sublette, in 1829. Foundation Set Up It was just a century later that the Grand Tetons and por tions of the Jackson Hole were set aside for the Grand Teton National Park. Even more sig nificant, at almost the same time one of the country's weal thiest men, John D. Rockefel ler Jr., became interested in the National Park system, and particularly in the Jackson Hole country. Grand Teton National Park aad the Jackson Rote can be readied from the coats via Idaho Fails and VS. 2 through Jackson, Wyo.; from north via Yellowstone Park. on Faint The scientists with the new est word, which amounts to a new tneory, said tnere was something in the grandmother way of preventing a faint. Grandmothers are always tel-1 ling brides: "Get a grip on yourself, dear, and you won't even feel giddy." Prof. E. P. Sharpey-Schafer and his associates, C. J. Hay-; ter and E. D. Harlow, began their investigation with the established physical fact of the faint-there is a sudden drop in blood pressure. This pressure is created by the resistance of surface blood vessels to the output strokes of the heart. There has to be pressure if the blood is to keep moving. If the movement is impeded, there is a faint. Comes the Fall By measurements of blood flow fearful in men about to lose teeth, they established that the contracting or squeez ing phase of the heart beat was grently intensified. At the same time, blood vessels were enlarged, offering less resist ance -to a more powerful heart stroke. The men in which this happened lost blood pressure and fainted. Fear so stimulated the squeeze part of the heart beat, that one heart chamber was virtually emptied of blood, they reasoned. This fired a reflex along nerve pathways which widened the diameter of blood vessels, and slowed the re-filling of the heart chamber. Thus the faint. But swoon ing entails falling and falling puts other nerve pathways in to play which ups the blood pressure and restores consci ousness. Merely tensing the muscles will do about the same thing, they said hence the soundness of the grand mothery idea that "getting a grip on yourself" is a pre ventive.

(Union Pacific photo) Out of this interest in con servation on the part of the elder Rockefeller came a unique nonprofit organization, the Jackson. Hole Preserve, Inc., which he founded and financed in 1940 and whose work is being carried on today through gifts from him, from the Rockefeller Brothers Fund and from his son, Laurance, who is president of the Jack son Hole Preserve, Inc. The broad purposes of Jack son Hole Preserve, Inc., are to function as a charitable and educational endeavor to con serve areas of outstandi n g primitive grandeur and natur al beauty and to provide facil ities for their use and enjoy ment by the public. It has been active in pre serving natural wonders in many parts of the United States, for example, groves of giant sequoias in California and bird sanctuaries in Flori da. It has provided matching funds for purchase of private lands lying within existing na tional parks and turned them over to the government as gifts, and has made an out right gift of 5000 acres, half the area of the unspoiled is land of St John, for a Virgin Islands National Park.

Specif ically this led to: first, the acquisition of 33,000 acres in this area, which were given to the Department of Interior in 1949 and incorporated into the Grand Teton National Park in 1950; and second, providing needed facilities for the public in the park, which meant con tributing $6,000,000 for con struction of the giant Jackson Lake Lodge at Moran and $1,000,000 for family vacation f acilities at near-by Colter Bay, Company Nonprofit The Grand Teton Lodge Co., 8 subsidiary of Jackson Hole; Preserve, operates Jackson Lake Lodge and the Colter Bay I Resort, and all profits go back j to the Preserve and are spent for other national park im provements and conservation projects.
