The Gordons, who are in
their fifth year of this work,
demonstrated the art cf arch
ery to the students, including
all types of skill shooting.
They shot through six maga
zines with hunting broadhead
to show that the bow and ar
row is not a toy.

to the most modern archery
equipment and Mr. Gordon
has bows that he shows from
all over the world, some dat
ing back 300 years.
Audience Participates
Teachers and students also
took part. Don Cattanach, 8th
grade teacher, shot the cross

Award Winner
Gordon previously was en

Open Your Heart association
in Los Angeles, which was
composed of 13 archery clubs,
that took boys who were
wards of the court to the arch

He was the national award

Archery" and "Instruction in
Safety," produced by the Har

made in Persia by an Ameri
can major. The bow collection
is valued at $3,000.
The Gordons left informa

archery club in the area with
William Shepherd, Shady
Cove School principal. They
emphasized that archery is not
only a sport for the young but
can be continued in later life.
They are personally acquaint
ed with men who are 87 and
still shooting and recently met
an oldster who was just giv
ing up the sport at the age of
91.

Colorful Canines
Poodles, telephones and Life
Savers have something in
common. They all come in as
sorted colors.
Pink poodles were bad
enough, but now there's a
gold one sniffing around the
area.
An Eagl Point couple
were celebrating their golden
wedding anniversary and their
grandchildren, decided their
dog should get in the spirit
of the occasion. So they used
some yellow food coloring on
the poor hound.
This could be carried a step
further. Several steps further,
in fact.
On Christmas, they could
paint a star on the unsuspect
ing pup's forehead and deck
it with tree lights. Or maybe
bows of holly.
For a birthday party, they
could bake it inside a cake.
At tne rigut moment, the c.og
could leap through the top
of the cake, bark (or shout
"Happy Birthday" if it hap
pens to be a talking dog) and
break into a quick soft-shoe
routine.
But the Fourth eJ July
would be the clincher.
Then they could dye it red,
white and blue, put an Amer
ican flag between its teeth
and strap it to a rocket.
Dogs have always howled
at the moon. It's only fair
that a dog should be the first
one to get there.
An ad in yesterday's pa
per aroused our curiosity.
,The owner of a 1960 model
car offered to sell his $750
equity "or trade for four
horse team and wagon wilib
ten mile nosebag."
. Craig Gates of Phoenix,
who placed the ad, said he's
leaving the area and has to
sell the car in order to get
a pickup truck to haul his .
belongings.
He'd rather jusi s.ell th,e
equity, but he would appre
ciate a call if you are in
terested in trading the wa,g,
on learn.
The horses, he said,
should get at least 2i0 miles
to a pound of oais.
When Mrs. Jess L. Groves
sets out to bake some bread,
shes' like the legendary post
man who trudges through a
blizzard to deliver the mail.
Nothing can stop her.
Mrs. Groves, whose home is
on Old Stage rd., was doing
some baking one clay last
week, reports Central Point
Correspondent Doris Hughes,
when a flue fire broke out.
CP. Rural firemen rushed to
the scene and extinguished it,
but not without the usual
mess that goes with putting
out a fire.
In the midst of the general
excitement and disorder, Mrs.
Groves, known to many as
"Ma," pulled her electric
stove aside, plugged it in and
continued with her bread
baking.
The lady commended the
firemen for their efficiency
and for cleaning up the
debris, but said she was sorry
they didn't stay longer.
They left before the bread
was done.

Rural Reflections
By MAUDE ZIEGLER
Applegate Valley John
Gribble was telling about the
time he was forest ranger here
around 1912, and was hauling
hay from a neighboring ranch
with a span of mules.
He decided to ford the riv
er, but when the water reach
ed to the hay rack, he decid
ed to drive the long way
around to get home with his
hay, and use a bridge a couple
of miles downstream. Gribble
lives in Medford, and as a
member of the Isaac Walton
league, has joined the fight
against highway billboards,
and expects to contact Apple
gate organizations on the sub
ject. Harlan Cantrall is viewing
his 12 acres of sugar beets
with optimism this spring,
and barring trouble with bugs,
he is looking for a bumper
crop of beet seed. He says the
bugs took a nip here and
there last summer. He has
been in the business about
20 years, and has joined the
ranks of the crop dusters.
Eagle Point Youths
Arrested for Theft
By DOTTIE HARBISON
Mail Tribune Correspondent
Eagle Point - Two -Eagle
Point youths, aged 19 and 17,
were arrested late yesterday
afternoon for stealing at least
45 gallons of gasoline as well
as the wheel from a man's
car. Eagle Point Marshal Orin
Chastain said the youths ad
mitted the thefts.
Chastain and sheriffs depu
ties also are investigating
three burglaries which oc
curred here sometime Monday
night. Thieves broke into
Eagle Point High school, the
grade school and Putnam
Brothers Cold Storage and
Feed store.
Chastain said the high
school's FFA agriculture
building was entered through
a rear door, apparently by us
ing a crowbar which was re
ported missing. Only some
small change was taken from
the FFA instructor's office.
Small Change Taken
The grade school was en
tered through two doors, one
of which had a faulty lock.
Taken was some small change
from the fifth and eighth
grade teachers' offices.
Missing from Putnam's
store were two used radios,
one a Philco and the other an
RCA model, and five corncob
pipes. One of the pipes was
recovered outside the store.
