Allocation Approved TVio PAmmnnitv fluVi Vinarrl of governors approved a mo tion to allot $75 from club funds for purchase of recrea tion equipment for a program this summer. Following sug gestions by Harris, who is also Phoenix school board mem- Mocfe to pamper your cat ...they're not just flavors "there the real thing. LIVER 'it MEAT KIDNEY 'n MEAT CHICKEN MEATY MIX CHOPPED FISH ber, and Mayor Arthur Mac Kintosh, the group decided to submit definite recommenda tions to the school board and city council for recreation funds. This request would be included in the city and school district budgets for the next fiscal year starting July 1. Mrs. J. D. Lubbers, chair man of the recreation com mittee, said her group, con sisting of Mrs. Ed Howard and Mrs. Lloyd Hale, decided to start with a small recreation program this summer. This would include girls' baseball, outdoor volleyball, croquet, crafts, horseshoes, and shuffle board. A local store has offer ed a 15 per cent discount on any recreation equipment the club purchases, Mrs. Lubbers reported. Mrs. Lloyd Nikodym, repre senting the volunteer firemen, said- her organization is con sidering donating some recrea tion equipment. Harris said possibly school equipment might be used if some adult is made responsible for it. Many Volunteers Mrs. Lubbers said many people have volunteered to help with the program. One person will be made respon sible for each activity and will list what equipment is needed, she explained. The recreation committee still needs someone to supervise the activities to be conducted inside the community club house. The committee now is mak ing a list of how many women are interested in helping and what hours they would be available. The program must be worked out also with the various church vacation Bible schools so the two will not conflict, Mrs. Lubbers pointed out. The board of governors also voted to buy immediately a first aid kit for the commu nity hall and a fire extinguish er. Harris said he would leave the key to the building in the drugstore so anyone wanting to get inside can pick it up there. The volunteer firemen will be allowed to use the club house for their meetings in exchange for some janitorial work. Mrs. Nikodym said the group has 26 active members, too many to meet at the various homes as they are now doing. Dill M a Umh By BOB WALTERS Only 7 More Days for Copco Allowance!

Hal X Appliance L 237 East Main SP 2-2456 The Welcome Mat It takes all kinds, so the saying goes, and most of them eventually visit the news room. It's just a matter of time. v Most people who climb the stairs to the Mail Tribune's second floor news room (we have a splendid view over looking a used car lot) are average, reasonably complex- f r e e individuals. But the others, usually paying their first visits, fit into any of three categories - Stalkers, Tremblers or Pals. First there's The Stalker. He (or sometimes she) takes long, firm strides to a speci fic desk, settles his business unsmilingly, pivots and stalks out the same way he stalked, in. This individual, for some unknown reason, is actually very much on the defensive. Next comes The Trembler. She (or sometimes he) opens the door timidly and ducks behind the partition. Minutes later she peeks out, then leaps approximately three feet in the air when a staffer says "May I help you?" Last, but certainly not least, is The Pal. He barges through the door (occasional ly opens it first), displays at least 75 white, pearly teeth has cheery greetings and pats on the back for everyone in the room, and always wants to see the managing editor. More often than not, he's some sort of public relations or publici ty man. Incidentally, The Stalker has one other identifying fea ture. He's the one who leaves by the wrong door and winds up in the men s room. An Ashland resident named Homer Hugo Elhart filed a report with police last week after having a minor traffic accident. A very minor accident, in fact. He estimated damage to his car at 20 cents. We have a new correspond ent in Yreka, Mrs. Ruth Mid dleton, and she's behind the increasing number of Yreka datelines appearing on this page. Persons who live in Mrs. Middleton's area and have story information can call her at Victor 2-2807. Then again, she's doing such a good job of covering the sheriff's office and police department that you might have better luck via another means of communication. Try sending up a flare. Stopped in to see Ashland School Superint endent Stanley Jobe this week and Ashland residents should be happy to learn that he was hard at work. The recent legal tangle oyer locks for the new jun ior high school seems to be out of the way (more than one official referred to it as "sour grapes") and Jobe is now slaving over the new budget. 1 No official comment on said budget as yet, but Mr. J. did point somewhat glumly to a pencil on his desk.

Rural Reflections By MAUDE ZIEGLER Applegate Valley - Folks who think they have troubles these days should recall what went oh 60 years ago: A bit of correspondence dated Nov. 14, 1900 says that Charley Hamilton, father of Boyd Hamilton, was going about the neighborhood looking for his team and hack. He had left his team tied while he was in the Ruch store, and the horses disap peared. And neither were there telephones then as a means of checking up on the wayward horses. Eagle Point Eagle Point Jaycees will hold a dinner meeting at the Rogue Riviera in Shady Cove tomorrow evening. By KATHERINE CHAPMAN Mail Tribune Correspondent Hornbrook - Penny Barnum has been chosen by the Rogue Valley Council of Girl Scouts to be one of four Senior Girl Scouts to represent the Rogue Valley council at the Three Rivers Senior council to be held in Eugene April 1-2. She will represent the Pine Crest neighborhood of the West Siskiyou district of the council. Selection of the girls for the expense-paid trip was made on the basis of answers to questionnaires sent to all Senior Scouts in the council.

She has been a member of the local 4-H club, and last year was secretary of the Willow Creek 4-H club. For many years Penny was the carrier here for the Med ford Mail Tribune and two other papers, and was a fa miliar and welcome sight as she made her rounds on horse back. Since entering high school she has had to give up two of her routes. Penny is a charter member, and an active one, of the Vaquerras, Hornbrook's girls' mounted drill team. Her other activities include many years as a piano and accordion stu dent of Mrs. Edith Greene, and she also is a member of the Latin club and the Girls' Athletic association of Yreka high. Her brother, Mike, now in the Navy, was a leader in the local Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts, and Explorers, and received his Eagle badge several years ago. It was through observing her brothers' Scout activities that Penny became interested in the Scouting movement, and before the establishing of a Girl Scout troop here, work ed as a "lone" scout in this area. Penny has loved animals, and The young lady recentlyhas helped her father with the earned her second class badge, horses and cattle on his ranch. and is now working to earn She has a natural "way" with her first class badge. stock, and her ambition is to Since she was a small girl, become a veterinarian. t '"- , ' j PENNY AND SANDY Hornbrook's Penny Barnum, a junior at Yreka High school, will be one of four girls representing the Rogue Valley Council of Girl Scouts at the Three Rivers Senior council in Eugene April 1-2.
