i Books Received At EP Library Eagle Point Mrs. Jessie Tycer, Eagle Point librarian, said she would like everyone in the community to drop in and note the new books and to become acquainted with the many opportunities avail able in the local library. A new Viewmaster, for use in the library only, has been added with slides covering most of the western states, Hawaii, Alaska, South Amer ica and numerous wild ani mals available at the present time. Slides will be rotated from time to time with spe cific ones available upon re quest. The 1960 edition of Comp ton's pictured enclyclopedia has been added to the set of America nnas for the adults. The Worldbook encyclo pedias are the only ones that can be removed from the li brary but a large table is sup plied within the library for use. Among the new magazines added recently are ""Chil dren's Activity" and "Seven teen" which brings the maga zine circulation to the level of all ages. A number of Boy Scout and Cub Scout manuals for both leaders and boys have been added to the lending library along with a large number of the merit pamphlets need ed for their rank advance ments. Mrs. Tycer announced that it is possible to borrow a book in Medford and return it in Eagle Point if it is more con venient. The same card is used at both libraries and specific requests may be obtained within a week now as the head librarian visits here each Friday. CP PTA Announces Valentine's Sale Central Point Mrs. Stan ley Parrish, Parent Teachers association ways and means chairman, announced that per sons furnishing baked goods for the PTA Valentine's sale may leave the product at the home-making room in Central Point Junior High school on Friday afternoon or Saturday morning. Parents are asked to bear in mind that special desserts for Valentine's Day may be purchased at this sale. This drive was prompted by the need of the District 6C Mothersingers for the music they will need to participate in the PTA convention to be held in Medford this year. Any money beyond the price of the music will go into the PTA fund. Small Worlds Around Us By Lynn M. Watkins Wild Reports Drum Up Fear of Wild "Killers' The voice over the airways was calm but the message it brought was widely sensa tional. In language designed to produce startling or thrill ing impressions, it reported "poisonous scorpions and venomous tarantulas are at tacking the people." This soul-stirring news re port sent tingles of apprehen sion down the spines of . the listeners. Nearly every day something equally ridiculous blares forth. ; Unusual Report One instance, a short time ago, received an unusual and undeserved coverage which lasted several days. - There was a leopard loose and over an area of hundreds of square miles thousands of people cowered in false ter ror. The airways were filled with dire warnings, one of which cautioned "all women and children remain indoors after dark and all doors and windows kept locked." Some 2:00 to 6:00 P.M.

SP 2-4724 Phone- SP 2-8569 one must: have though the "jungle-bred killer was car rying a bunch of keys." By the end of three or four days the hunt for the escaped cat became highly organized. The tension mounted. The situation was reported to be more dangerous with every passing hour as by now the "ferocious beast" having had notLs io eat would be fran tic for want . of . food, there fore doubly dangerous. The calm voice over the air re ported, "hundreds of men, grim-faced and determined, armed with rifles,- were comb ing every wild area."., So-Called 'Killer . . This so-called "killer" whose escape upset a large area . had conducted himself in no manner to justify all the excitement. The only lulling the jungle . cat . had ever accomplished, was.a few chickens that haa been placed in the cage for him to eat. Yet in a matter of hours and a half dozen million words, all most ill advised and all de signed to create a sensational event, a terrible, blood-thirsty monster was created. . We reach this state of silly fear because we have read or seen depicted in the movies, ridiculous events, of the ter rible "wild beasts" that are pictured as creatures whose sole intent and purpose in life is to attract some helpless human. ' We have all read of our ancestors fighting wild animals, when imagined dan gers '.lurked .. behind.-, every tree. Actually those ancestors of ours were in little danger of wild animals.' " If you stop and think about it a' minute you will see how silly and stupid' are all our fears. The man who will go out and catch this "savage beast'- will probably use a short piece of rope, a piece of canvas or a net provided he gets to the animal before some trigger-happy guy with a gun has .a chance to fill the poor escapee full of lead.
