I SEEBULLISTER- TJ pj-j-jj BlpS Western Auto Plans Grand Opening of New Store Friday Gifts, prizes and free soft drinks will be given away at the grand opening of the new Western Auto Supply com pany store at 25 South River side ave., beginning Friday and continuing through next week. Store Manager Don Ford said there will be free soda pop for "anyone walking through the door" and that prizes, to include a living room set, a bicycle, a set of tires and some turkeys, will be given during the week. The old Western Auto store south of the new store has been partially demolished to make room for construction of the 8th st. bridge. Business has continued during the mov ing process but the new store will close Thursday to pre pare for Friday's opening. Building Remodeled The new building has been remodeled and provides more area for the company's oper ation. A slightly larger sales force will be available for cus tomers. Ford said that a new, ex panded furniture department, which recently had been dis-i continued at the old location, would be in the store. Air conditioning will be a feature of the new store, as well as customer parking at the side of the building. The store is also a member of the Park-and-shop system. The new store has enlarged service facilities for cars. . The store will be open Fri day from 9 a.m. to 9 pjn. Usual hours will be 8:30 ajn. to 5:30 p.m., except Mon day nights when the store will be open. Western Auto handles fur niture, appliances, sporting goods, auto, accessories,-hardware, kitchenware, toys and wheel goods. California Said Due Big Population Hike New York -(Science Service)- Sunny California will be the most populous state in the nation by 1970, statisticians of the Metropolitan Life Insur ance Co. here predict. It will grow by 6,000,000 inhabitants to give it a total of more than 20,000,000 people, they re port. For all 50 states, the nose-count should increase to more than 208,000,000. Ne vada and Arizona, vanguards of the booming Southwest, are expected to lead in rate of population growth with in creases of about two-thirds. Tourists Add To Insect Problem Washington (Science Serv i c e) Americans returning from their travels abroad could literally devastate American agriculture. This warning was made here by E. P. Reagan, in charge of foreign plant quar antine enforcement for the U.S. Department of Agricul ture. Many tourists, knowing ly or unknowingly, carry with them insect pests, diseased plants or meat products that may be the source of serious animal diseases. Inspection of incoming bag gage is becoming more diffi cult as the mountains of bag gage grows. Tourists have an increasing responsibility to refrain from bringing into the U.S. exotic plants and foods, the USDA points out. Lats year plant quarantine inspectors intercepted a de structive plant pest for every half-hour's examintion of lug lage, airplanes, ships, automi biles and trains from foreign lands. A school teacher return ing from Brazil was discov ered carrying coffee twigs and berries and Mediterranean fruit fly larvae. It had cost $10,000,000 to eradicate the Medfly from Florida in 1957. Travelers planning to bring back unprocessed foods, plants, seeds or animal prod ucts for special purposes should request a permit, be fore leaving the U.S., Letter Man or Little Lady duiards shoes are mother-approved Whether you're the mother of a dainty deb or a sandlot hero, you know how important your children's shoes are.

Main Medford Plans for Cut In Hillcrest Funds Heard by Board Salem-fUPD-The State Board of Control heard Tuesday the State Public Welfare Com mission plans to reduce funds for foster care of girls at Hill crest school here from $25,000 to $10,000 a year. Representatives of the State Finance Department said that if the cut is made, other plans will. have to be made to take care of girls ready for foster homes. Twelve girls are now in the program and the school hopes to increase this number to 32 if funds are made available. Advisory Board Sought The board said it would look for representatives of bpth union and industry to form an advisory board on meatcutting and baking at 'the new intermediate correc tional institution. The board felt such an ad visory group would be useful in finding jobs for young first offenders when they were re leased from the institution. Out-of-state travel was ap proved for state officials to attend the Western State Council on Higher Education meeting in Seattle and also to send representatives to gath erings of the American Psy chological Association and the American Psychiatric Association. Dogs May Need Hay Fever Shot Chicag6 -(Science Service)- If Fido gets the sniffles within the next week or so, hustle him of to the vet for a hay fever shot. Dogs appear to be as sensi tive to ragweed pollen as hu mans, and require the same treatment for the allergy. For instance, a two-year-old fox terrier in southern Michigan developed a runny nose, itch ing and inflamed eyes during the hay fever season from August through October of 1957. The dog was given antihis tamine which relieved his symptoms until the season ended in October, Dr. Roy Patterson, University of Mich igan Medical School, Ann Ar bor, reports in the Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association. (Aug. 1). Autos Bothered Pony Express Rider -Sacramento, Calif. (DPD Pony Express riders had it easy. They may have had to watch out for Indians, but they had no trouble with heavy traffic. You. can take that from rodeo rider Verne Boyd who retraced the route of the Pony Express from St. Joseph, Mo., to Sacramento in order to prove that men and horses are as good today as they were in the old Wild West days. "I've been kidded a lot about Indian trouble," Boyd said, "and back in the pio neer times I guess there was some, but I don't believe the Indians worried Kit Carson half as much as the automo biles worried me." The ride took an even 60 days for the 36-year-old Boyd who made the trip aboard a seven-year-old mare named Pet. News About Servicemen OUTSTANDING STUDENT First Lt. Lawrence D. Ty cer, Medford, recently was named an outstanding student in a class of 866 at the squad ron officer school at Maxwell Air Force base, Ala. He is a graduate of Eagle Point High school and the University of Oregon. PROMOTED Daniel S. Rickard, former Medford resident, has been promoted to captain in the Army at Ft. Benning, Ga. He will be reassigned to Alaska. Captain Rickard has been aide-de-camp to the assistant commandant of the Army in fantry center at Ft. Benning. IN EXERCISE Army Pfc. Donald R. Low rance, whose wife, Natalia, lives at 363V Beach st., Ash land, recently participated in a field training exercise with the fourth armored division in Grafenwohr, Germany. A graduate of Junction City High school, he was graduat ed from Southern Oregon college in 1957. Home Help Is Called A 'National Phenomenon' America's parents appear to' be showing more eagerness than ever before to be teach ers' helpers; flash cards, for merly, used principally for school drill, and games, keyed to implanting knowledge of the three R's, recently have become best sellers in retail stores. This new homefront inter est in improving youngsters' performance in math, reading, spelling and social studies is a national phenomenon, re ports Dr. Mary Moffit,, profes-soj- of child development at Queens college and advisor to Toy Guidance council. Many basic school teaching aids have been revised for use at home by children alone or with parents or older children in the teacher role. The admission to statehood of Alaska and Hawaii has sparked new interest in the "Game of States"- which bases competition on trading lead ing products of each of the 50 states. Preparing children for school gets special attention in an integrated "steps to learning" kit which teaches basics such as recognition of shapes and forms, the identi fication of colors, and telling time. Flash card kits for home drill now include variations of multiplication and division as well as basic addition and substraction. Another way of "tackling the fractions" is provided by a pie game in which quarters, eighths, etc., are represented by slices of lemon and cherry pie. This game is titled "Frac tions Are Easy As Pie." Larger American families have inspired educational quiz games that cater to all age levels. Man Buried in Upright Position Washington, Ga. -UPD- Capt. Abraham Simons, a wealthy Georgian who fought in the Revolutionary war, was bur ied six miles east of this town in a standing position with his rifle beside him "to fight the Devil." Although Simons fought valiantly during the War of Independence, he also played another, quieter role in the history of Georgia. Shortly after his death, his widow was married to the Rev. Jesse Mercer,- who used Simons' large estate to found Mercer university in Macon.
