Man Arrested for
Reckless Driving
Franklin Jones, 46, is in
the Jackson county jail today
on a charge of reckless driv
ing follow his capture by
sheriff's deputies who chased
the car he was operating at
speeds up to 65 miles per
hour on downtown Medford
streets yesterday afternoon.
The chase started when an
auxiliary sheriff's deputy ob
served Jones, who lives near
Phoenix, going north on
Highway 99 following an ac
cident just south of Medford.
The deputy took out after
Jones and called for assist
ance from another deputy
who joined in the chase.
State police said Jones at
tempted to elude officers on
downtown Medford streets,
but the deputies stuck with
the car and finally caught up
with and apprehended him on
Holly st. near 11th st. about
2:35 p.m., where he was ar
rested and charged with reck
less driving.
State police said that prior
to the chase, Jones' vehicle
was heading south on High
way 99 at a high rate of speed
when he lost control of his
car on wet pavement, sliding
across the highway, almost
hitting another car, and end
ing up in a ditch.
They said Jones apparently
backed out of the ditch and
took off at a high rate of
speed, at which time he was
observed by the auxiliary
sheriff's deputy.
State police said they will
attempt to file another com
plaint against Jones in dis
trict court, this one for fail
ure to drive on the right side
of the highway.

National Parks Is
Topic of Chamber's
Round table Session
Although national parks
are of great benefit to com
munities in close proximity to
them, they are kept and ad
ministered for national use
and advantage.
Otto Brown, superintendent
of Crater Lake national park
and Oregon caves, said it is a
nation-wide problem that
communities around national
parks have the attitude that
the parks belong to them and
are for their benefit.
They resent park adminis
trators improving parks from
a national point of view in
stead of a local one.
But Medford and the other
communities around Crater
Lake national park seem to be
very aware of the fact that
Crater Lake is not their park,
but belongs to the nation as
a whole, he said. This makes
the administration of the park
much easier.
Brown, who took over the
head of Crater Lake only last
October, addressed the Med
ford Chamber of Commerce
roundtable luncheon at the
Jackson- hotel Monday.
He classifies himself as a
"visitor" to the park since it
is still a little new to him and
he look at it largely from a
visitor's point of view.
This is good, he said, be
cause it enables him to see
how tourists from other parts
of the country look at it.
Roads Improved
Although 340,989 people
visited the park in 1959 and it
is predicted that 600,000 will
visit Crater Lake in 1966, he
feels that the attraction of
Crater Lake will be greatly
enhanced if and when the ac
cess roads in the area around
the park are improved.
It is his opinion, the super
intendent said, that many
tourists traveling the high
ways near Prospect or the
Green Springs highway, are
discouraged because of the
difficult roads they have had
to travel to get to the park.
These persons are also very
likely telling their friends
that the park isn't worth the
trouble of driving the poor
roads necessary to. get there,
thereby keeping many pros
pective tourists away, he
added.
When the roads are improv
ed, the numbers of tourists
traveling to Crater Lake will
be much larger, Brown pre
dicted. Economic Impact
He reviewed the volume of
tourists visiting the park last
year and some aspects of the
economic impact they had on
the area.
Approximately 105,429 cars
came to the park in 1959 con
taining 340,989 persons who
spent $2,410,000 in the park
and immediate area.
Forty-two per cent of the
tourists were from Oregon
and can be discounted as con
tributing a significant amount
of money to the local econo
my, he said.
The majority of money
came from the 195,620 out of
state tourists who visited the
park last year. Each of these
tourists spent an average of
1.32 days in the park and
spent $6.16 per person per
day.
A total of 62,721 tourists
stayed all night in the park
and many more stayed in the
adjacent communities. These
are the ones who contribute
most to the economy through
the purchase of food, clothing
and accommodations.
The largest number of out-of-state
tourists were from
California which accounted
for 32 per cent of the total,
followed by Washington with
8 per cent; Illinois, 1.10 per
cent; Texas, 1 per cent and
New York, .9 per cent. '
All other states contributed
12.3 per cent, of the total,
Canada contributed 2 per cent
and other foreign countries,
.07 per cent, Brown said.
Brown said that although
he has seen the lake a number
of times it still has a great at
traction for him, especially
the different "moods" of the
lake.
Attraction Is Beauty
It is his opinion that people
come to Crater Lake because
of the beauty of the forest,
lake and surrounding coun
try. They get the impression
of something different and
outstanding when they are
looking at the lake, he said.
Brown was assigned to
Yellowstone park before com
ing to Crater Lake, and was
there at the time of the Aug.
17 earthquake, which, he said,
graphically exhibited the ef
fect of a national park on the
surrounding community.
Before the quake, the park
service had estimated that na
tional parks affect an area of
100 miles around them, but
when the earthquake at Yel
lowstone occurred, all tourist
travel within a 500 mile ra
dius of the park completely
halted, showing the estimates
were much too modest.
Brown said that press and
radio coverage of the quake
was largely to blame for the
unnecessary fear that tourists
had of the park for months
afterwards.
Although the" earthquake
was centered in Yellowstone
itself, no lives were lost there,
a point on which the news
media was misleading, he
said, and only one entrance
to the park , was closed be
cause of the quake..
The nearest place to the
park where lives were lost
was on the Madison river
some 17 miles from the park,
where an estimated 20 per
sons were buried under a
massive slide.
In pointing out the size of
this slide. Brown said that it
dumped 50 million cubic yards
of earth and rock into the
river, blocking the river with
a natural dam that measured
250 feet above the water
level at its lowest point.
There were many slides in
the park and several "faults"
in the earth were formed.
The closest the quake came
to causing loss of life in the
park was when it buried a
black bear in a slide, he said.
The bear had presumably
been under a. ledge at the
start of the slide which car
ried it down the side of a
mountain. When workers dug
the bear out over a Week
later, the bear was still alive
and had not a scratch on it,
he said.
Brown showed a number
of slides, at the roundtable
luncheon, of scenes of both
Crater and Yellowstone park
after the earthquake.

Guard Cutters
Alongside Alert
Off Oregon Coast
Coos Bay - (LTD - A Coast
Guard cutter was stnding by
the 100-foot vessel Alert Mon
day night as a storm hit the
coast area with winds up to
60 miles an hour.
The Alert, with 24 colonists
aboard headed for the Gala
pagos Islands, was about 10
miles off this coastal city.
The cutter Modoc made its
way to the vessel Monday
night and another Coast
Guard vessel took an extra
pump to the craft because the
Alert's wasn't working prop
erly. To Try for Port
The Coast Guard here said
the Alert would try to make
it into port if the weather
and seas calmed down enough
to allow it to get over the
bar into the bay.
A coast guardsman said it
didn't look as if the Alert
would be able to make it into
port unless the weather clear
ed. The Alert left Seattle Jan.
8 bound for the Galapagos
Islands but didn't get very
far as the Coast Guard re
fused to allow it to go on un
less it was repaired and made
more seaworthy.
Gale warnings were posted
all along the Oregon coast
Monday and the Weather bu
reau said they will remain
displayed today.
