Porpoises outswim -most fish, but the seagoing mam mals can remain under water no longer than three minutes. Usually porpoises surface for breath every 20 to 45 seconds, even during sleep. Price is good, volume is ad equate and a good year is pre dicted in the lumber industry, according to a survey of local lumbermen. Lumbermen generally feel that the lumber market has greatly improved compared with the last two years and, although costs of stumpage, labor and supplies have risen sharply, the lumber industry Is in a much healthier condi tion than a year ago. A large portion of the lum ber from this area is shipped to eastern markets where the outlook of users is said to be optimistic: Currently, the number of eastern strikes is holding down busmess ex pansion somewhat and a possi ble building program, lumber men here said. The current question of a steel strike Is definitely affecting heavy con struction since steel is used for supports and framework, it was pointed out, Freight Rat Equalizing the freight rate for lumber shipped into Cali fornia has helped the Oregon lumber industry considerably, spokesmen for local firms said. Air pollution was also men tioned by lumber industry spokesmen, a subject which has received much thought. Their comments ranged from the burning of wood wastes to the use of the woods for re creation. Managers of local firms generally said the key to the air pollution problem is greater use of wood wastes or by-products and a number of firms are working on ideas to increase utilization of wastes. All of the firms con tacted said they open their woods to public recreational use. They set controls only during the fire season and then in particularly hazard ous areas. Not a Serious Factor Recreation is not a serious factor in the woods, many of the spokesmen said. They felt that people don't want a for ester looking down their necks. Keeping people out of private timber stands is a thankless and hopeless job, one spokesman said. Its much easier, he said, to educate the public to avoid creating fire hazards. Generally, the public cooperates well, they agreed, At least two firms have been studying use of wastes in fire logs resembling "Presto-Logs. One firm is planning to put out $150,000 toward so lution of the waste use prob lem. It is considering putting in a fire-log plant to use dry shavings and sawdust from the planing mill. A hog would grind up slabs, edgings and trims from the sawmill which could be used to generate ad ditional power, a spokesman said. Wait Burner Smoke "The waste burner is al ways going to smoke," a lum berman said. "The solution lies in finding products which would utilize all waste." This lumberman suggested use of fire-logs or briquets which could be adapted to or chard heating. With this in mind one lumber firm is plan ning to bring in carloads of fire-logs from out-of-state to be offered to orchardists for experimental purposes during the next orchard heating sea son. This same firm feels the best outlet for its waste prod ucts now is in the home area. It plans to set up an office in its plant for promotion and sale of products from waste materials. One of these would be shredded and ground bark for use as mulch. Several lum ber firms throughout the country are already selling bark for mulch specially sacked for the home gardener. The local firm feels there is a good market for shipment of this material in bulk form to orchardists and farmers. Additional Power Another firm is making power with part of its waste materials. With further ex pansion of the mill it plans to use additional waste material for more power. It now burns only one-third of its waste. It plans to put in a hog to use practically all of it. The lumber industry is at tempting to promote its prod uct for use in building in pref erence to substitute materials. This' campaign has been in tensified on the Pacific coast where lumbermen hope lum ber will hold its edge over use of such materials as pumice block. Lumber industry spokes men stress that wood is the only all-purpose building ma terial. Use of wood in con struction is economical be cause of its workability and availability, they point out. Wood is strong, light and re silient and will take paints, stains, and coatings better than any other material, they said.. Weed Uses New processes have in creased the usefulness of wood such as impregnating it to fire, decay and termites. Lumbermen also point to the new construction uses of lum ber such as huge construc tion timbers from lamination processes. One of the largest of such laminated arches rises 74 feet and has a clear span of 242 feet. The technique of gluing pieces of lumber together -laminating originated i n Europe about the turn of the century, but was not used, in the United ' States until the 1930s, according to the For est Resources handbook com piled by American Forest Products Industries, Inc. This glued lamination permits the use of some lower grades of lumber In heavy construction. These glued timbers are eas ily treated with chemicals to make them fire resistant and, to give them longer life. . At a time when the tax-aon-scious public is watch-dogging school construction costs lum ber and timber materials are being promoted for more at trative and economical schools. One such school mainly using wood materials is the Ridgewood Elementary school in Beaverton, Ore. The building was planned for two phases. Fixed budget for the first phase of construction was $400,000. This included 10 classrooms, a multi-purpose room, cafeteria, kitchen, spe cial education suite and a su perintendent's suite. Glulam Roof Beams In the classroom and ad ministrative sections glulam roof beams rest on timber col umns. All beams and columns are of the same dimensions and specifications. This made it possible to produce an num ber of identical items and economize. The second phase will in clude six classrooms and a gymnasium with stage and dressing rooms. The total school will accomodate 480 pupils. Estimated cost for the first phase was $9.86 per square foot, , Such laminated arches have been used in churches, radio stations, schools, stores and various commercial buildings. Lumber shipments of 475 mills reporting to the National Lumber Trade . Barometer were 3 per cent above produc tion for the week ended June 20. New orders for these mills during the same week were 10.7 per cent below produc tion. Unfilled orders for these mills was 42 per cent of their stocks. Shipments of report ing identical mills were 2.1 per cent above production and new orders were 2.6 per cent above production. The national picture of the lumber market appeared firm. Statistics for the weeks end ing June 20 listed 142 mills reporting in the Douglas fir region. Production for those mills for the week ending June 20 was 111,109 million board feet compared to 105, 822 million board feet for the week ending June 21, 1958. The same mills reported ship ments totalling 118,963 mil lion board feet for the week ending June 20, 1959, com pared to 121,358 million board feet for the week ending June 21, 1958. For the western pine region 114 mills reported a produc tion total of 93,739 million board feet for the week end ing June 20 compared to 91, 172 million board feet for the week ending June 21, 1958. Lumbermen right now are critically watching the Inter national Wood Workers of America strike in British Co lumbia. Possible strikes are shaping up in Arizona and southern California which may affect the lumber pic ture here although most lum ber shipped from the Rogue river valley area is shipped east. Trees Are Crop Above all lumber Industry spokesmen emphasize that the public must realize that trees are a crop like wheat or any other farm crop. They must be harvested to be used. A dead tree, down and rotting fails ,to build any houses, schools or provide a base for taxes. It becomes a hazard to the surrounding area trees and also clutters up what might otherwise be a natural recreation spot. Proper forest management which includes harvesting of ripe timber aids outdoor recreation and does not hamper it, they point out.

Actor on Leave For TV Filming Ashland - Theodore Mar cuse, member of the 1959 Ore gon Shakespearean Festival acting company, flew to Hol lywood this week end for a quick filming session at 20th Century-Fox studios. Marcuse, with a three-day leave from his present Ashland assign ments, worked on additional scenes for the pilot film of a new NBC television series called "Five Fingers." Marcuse, who is playing the tragic hero Antony in the Fes tival's staging of "Antony and Cleopatra," is the villain in "Five Fingers," appearing in each episode as the hero's nemesis. The series is set for hour-long release Sunday nights next season. Originally submitted as a 30-minute feature, it was later expanded to a full hour. Because of this Marcuse must make the flight to Hollywood for several additional scenes. He will miss three rehearsal days in Ashland, where in addition to Antony - he will be seen as Sir, Toby in "Twelfth Night" and Pan- dulph in "King John." An actor of considerable ex perience, Marcuse made his Broadway debut in the Kath erine Cornell company of "An tony and Cleopatra." He ap peared again with Miss Cor nell in "The Constant Wife," after a season with Judith An derson in "Medea" and Mau rice Evans in Richard II." Re cently he - has been seen in more than 100 films and tele vision shows, Including roles in "Have Gun Will Travel" and "Playhouse 90."
