Forest Lands To
Be Back in Full
Growth by 1965
Portland - (UPD - Delegates
to the Pacific Logging Con
gress here were told Wednes
day that all Oregon and Cali
fornia forest lands would be
back in full growth by 1965.
Edward Woozley, director
of the Bureau of Land Man
agement, based his statement
on the record planting of 22,
000 acres this year in addition
to 26,000 acres planted last
year.
Further Increase
Woozley forecast a possible
further increase in the allow
able annual cut of 769 million
board feet announced last
July for Oregon O&C lands.
The further increase would
be based on better inventory
figures and better growth con
ditions on the 2Vi million
acres of O&C lands.
Woozley stressed that a bet
ter network of roads is neces
sary if the valuable resource
is to be given adequate fire
protection.
The Congress called for re
vision of U. S. Forest Service
practices in evaluating timber
offered for purchase.
In one of 16 resolutions
passed the group asked that
timber be offered on the basis
of insuring a fair profit for
the purchaser.
It also asked congressmen
from western states to oppose
the Wilderness' Bill, currently
before the Senate Committee
of Interior and Insular Af
fairs. They said the ' bill would
prevent "development of vital
natural resources needed for
the continued and beneficial
growth of the United States
. . . and would benefit only a
tiny fraction of our people."

Winner of Bet
Doesn't Get Girl
Teramo, Italy (UPD Two
youngsters in love with the
same girl fought it out - to
the last steak.
Nicola di Battista and Lu
cio Caserta both loved a
pretty schoolteacher in this
Abruzzi Mountain town.
To decide who would
marry her they agreed to a
steelk-duel.
Whoever ate the most
steaks would win her.
As an appetizer each ate his
way through three plates of
spaghetti, a roasted chicken,
20 sausages, ten hard-boiled
eggs and a plate of cakes.
Then they tackled their
steak.
Di Battista was declared
the winner three hours later,
after gulping down the last
mouthful of his 16th steak.
Caserta gave up after the
15th.

the schoolteacher refused to
honor the bet.

in a car. The answer in 1959 comes from this
completely .new 20th Anniversary Mercury.

costliest cars. Up front 9 inches more knee
room! The tunnel-hump in the floor HAS BEEN

sit with his chin on his knees. And that lower
hump makes room for thicker seat cushions.

quiet, obedient, effortless.
