o WEDNESDAY. JUNE IS. ItM MEDFORD lAlL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, ORE. B 3 O Valley Youngsters Take Forest Trips By MAUDE ZIEGLER Mall Tribune Correspondent Applegate Valley Local school children really are get ting to the bottom of what goes on In the forest service, according to letters of appre ciation mailed to Ranger Neil Suttell after he took them on a "show-me" trip into the for est last month. A typical letter written by Gene Fowler of Applegate school follows: Dear Mr. Suttell: I never did know that you had so much hose for fires. And that it only took three hours for a ditch to take out a road and make a gully clear to the bottom of the canyon. That the Forest Service plants white fir trees only eight feet apart. I learned what food the fire fighters eat, how heavy their packs are, and that they need much equipment, and that they go in after the fire is out and put every spark out with a little five gallon tank of water. -Sincerely yours, Gene Fowler. The fifth and sixth grades from Applegate, accompanied by their teacher, Mrs. E. J. Henderson, room mothers, and the ranger, made the loop trip by bus through Thomp son creek and Carberry, ob serving various forest activi ties and visiting the placer mine of E. A. Adams on Brush creek. A similar trip was made by the third and fourth grades from Ruch with Robert Snoich, director of timber management, as their guide. Their teacher, Mrs. Lloyd Shannon, and room mother ac companied them. The letters were referred to the office of Forest Supervise or Carrol Brown in Medford, They were accompanied by spray prints of various tree species. Each letter mentioned Regional Calendar Rogue Valley Amateur Ra dio club will meet at 8 o'clock tomorrow night at the club house in the Camp White area.

It's probably me. The hole resulted from be ing hauled over the coals yes terday by a couple of people who weren't what you'd call pleased by Monday s column on parking meter ticket-writ ers. Both seemed to think I was conducting some sort of anti- Medford police depart ment campaign, which doesn't happen to be the case at all. The first caller was a gentleman (a policeman's father, incidentally) who said the column probably appealed only to those who are constantly "rebelling against authority." He add ed that it must have given c o n s i d arable encourage ment to juvenile delin quents. In short. I'm Al Capone armed with a typewriter. All I need is a moll; The wife of a police officer was the next caller. She was polite and expressed her views very objectively, one said she and her husband be lieved I had written the col umn because he had given me a parking ticket a few weeks ago. I assured her tnat wasn i so and I think now might be a good time to go on record with my opinions on parking meters. Do I like them? No. Who does? Do I think we need them? Definitely. Do I get many parking tickets? Yes. Do I pay them without a fuss? Yes. Do I think I should be excused from paying them? Of course not. Now all that was pretty elementary, but those were a few of the questions was asked. The column in question was meant entirely in jest. Any- who read anything more serious into it wound up with a gross misinterpretation. The gentleman caller saia I had gone "overboard. Of course I did, ana aeiiD- erately. It was done that way so that no one (I hoped) would take it seriously. The mythical police oincer. for instance, refused to stop writing a parking ticket even though a bank was being robbed and the bank lobby was packed with bodies of people who had been shot by the robbers. How anyone could take that seriously is beyond me. It all boils down. I think, to a catt-iron fact that any newspaperman learns after he's been in the business for a week: You can't please everyone. If you praise an indi vidual or an organisation, there's always someone who disagrees and conse quently dislikes the story, the writer, the paper and oerhaos the world in gen eral. The reverse also is true. But that's the way It should be. Lite would be pretty drab if we all held the same views. Fortunate ly, we don't and it isn't. Whew. This hasn't been an apol ogy, since I don't think one is necessary. But I do hope it clarified the "issue" for any serious - minded readers who chose to take offense. One problem, however, sun Great White Father nas threatened to assign me to the nnltre heat. ... . l i . v. Wonder II 1 coum gei ms correct time?
