Bill (or Early
Opening of Polls
Passed in Senate
Salem -OD- Only one bill,
providing for opening of vot
ing polls at 6 a.m. instead of
8 a.m., was considered and
passed by the Senate Friday.
Sen. Dan Dimick (D-Rose-burg)
told the Senate that the
judiciary committee had
found no conflicts in the bill
and recommended its passage
unanimously.
"We found by testimony at
a hearing that Oregon stands
way down the line of states
as to the number of eligible
voters who fail to exercise
their right of franchise," Dim
ick said.
Only four votes were cast
against the measure.
A resolution adopted by the
Idaho Legislature' congratu
lating Oregon on its centen
nial celebration was read in
the Senate and the House.
Senate Dresident Walter J.
Pearson warned senators that
next Monday, the 36th day of
the session, would be the last
day in which bills could be
introduced without going
through the Senate Rules
committee.
Bills have been going
through the House Rules com
mittee since the 25th day of
the session.
Because of the illness of
Sen. Boyd Overhulse (D-Mad-ras)
his position on the rules
committee was shifted to Sen.
Alice Corbett (D - Portland)
and her post on the resolu
tions committee given to Ov
erhulse. Congressmen

Fire Foremen's
Training Slated
The annual fire foremen's
training school, sponsored by
the Southern Oregon Conser
vation and Tree Farm associ
ation, will be held in Medford
May 6 and in Grants Pass,
May 7, Dale C. Prentice, secretary-manager,
has announc
ed. The school is conducted in
cooperation with the state de
partment of forestry, the for
est service and the bureau of
land management.
Prentice said the school this
year probably will concen
trate on the small smoke-chaser
type of crew leadership. He
pointed out that last year's
experience with lightning
fires brought to the associ
ation's attention the need for
more training of foremen for
this size crew.
Map reading, smoke chas
ing problems, safety and some
record keeping are among the
items' tentatively planned for
the one-day training course,
he said.
The association encouraged
mill employees to attend the
course since the mill crew
must back up the loggers dur
ing fires.
Those attending the school
will meet at the state depart
ment of forestry headquarters
at 8a.m. and transportation
will be furnished to the field.
Hot lunches will be served
by the forest service and state
department of forestry.
