Firm Has No Plans To Buy Tree Cones Tacoma -IUPII- Weyerhaeuser company is making no plans to buy seed cones this year be cause of a poor seed crop, Royce O. Cornelius, managing forester, announced Thursday. Cornelius said a bumper crop in 1959 probably reduced tree vigor to a level insuffi cient to permit development of cones this year. In good years the company buys cones from spare-time collectors for use in reforesta tion. Cornelius said the company would use seeds kept in cold storage from the 1959 crop for reforestation this year. About 20,000 acres will be seeded from the air in Washington and Oregon. -gpis VALIANT V-200 4-D00R SEDAN "6' PLYMOUTH FURY 4-D00R HARDTOP "6" YES, WE'VE SLASHED PRICES IN OUR PLYMOUTH-VALIANT 1 DO WE HAVE wide choice of colors and models- YES!

It's open!" Leopold Godowsky, tho late composer, was subject to insomnia. His son, who lived with him until his marriage, was a sound, heavy sleeper. When the father was having a par ticularly bad night, it was his amiable practice to enter his son's room, shake him vigorously, and exclaim, "What's the matter, my poor boy? Can't you sleep either?" A housewife, preparing1 dinner in tho kitchen, heard her hus band enter the apartment a full hour ahead of his usual time. What she did not know was that he had persuaded his boss to come with him for a "taste of home cooking." Cheerily she called out, "Hi, Snoogie, I see old drizzle puss let you sneak off early this evening!" 1960, by Bennett Cei f. Distributed by King Features Syndicate Columnist Eric Sevareid Has Annoyed Readers, But Rarely Bored Them I may occasionally annoy some readers, but 1 rarely bore anybody," claims Eric Sevareid. And few will deny cither ability to the sophisticated, amusing and mildly cynical news analyst who has been newspaper reporter, author, radio, TV commentator, and now syndicated columnist for the Mail Tribune. His column on internation al, national, economic and mil itary affairs - which he has been covering distinguishedly for about two dozen years will appear each Sunday on the editorial page. Sevareid began as a copy boy on the Minneapolis Jour nal in 1931 before getting his A.B. degree at the University of Minnesota. Later he served as a reporter on the Journal, then on the Minneapolis Star. In 1036 he expanded his horizons, joining the Paris Edition of the N.Y. Herald Tribune, first as a reporter, then as city editor. After short trick as night editor ot the United Press ;n Paris, h joined the Columbia Broad casting System in August of 1939 as a European corres pondent His voice became familiar to listeners throughout the U. S. during the war. He was with the French Army and Air Force in France and Bel gium, then broadcast news of the French capitulation from Tours and Bordcau. His voice has since been heard from many parts of the world, in eluding England (where he is currently), Holland, Belgium, Luxembourg, Mexico, Brazil.

Eric Sevareid claims no expertise except perhaps in lie political and diplomatic areas, but he has gone from the small town of Velva, North Dakota, his birthplace. to the groat capitals and news centers of the world, from a dirt farm to acquaintance with the world's great, from cov ering baby snatching and Min neapolis meetings to comment ing on world war and world conferences. Married and the father of twin teenagers, Sevareid has fairly recent "passion for hunting and fishing- with loo little time to indulge it." He is past president of the Radio Correspondents association. In addition to "In One Ear," he wrote the juvenile "Ca noeing with the ' Cree." the best selling "Nut So Wild a Dream" and, more recently, "Small Sounds in the Night." He has written for such mag azines as the Saturday Eve ning Post, Look, Reader's Di gest, Harper's, The Reporter, The New Republic This Week, American Legion Magazine. Boys' Life, St. Nicholas and Harper's Bazaar. From a viewpoint shaped by contact with many of the news makers of this era and a life spent nearly half of it over seas, Eric Sevareid comments on the passing and crucial news with wit and bile. "I'm deeply interested in the whole current develop ment of western society," he observes, "in all its manifes tations from its preoccupation with gadgets to its philosoph ical phase of mind." r 'y.' j'vjii'.t' 100TablSrp twice as fast as aspirin! doesn't upset your stomach!

Bottles Flat Dome Top -s3i lis Selective Service Puts New Procedure in Effect New procedures to identify men who would be qualified for military service in an emergency, but who are not accepted under current Armed Forces standards, have been put into effect by Oregon Se lective Service local boards, Sprague H. Carter, Oregon se lective service director, has announced. The new proce dures have been adopted on a national basis. The men will no longer be placed in Class 1V-F, Carter said. It is expected that selec tive service regulations will be amended to provide in the near future, a new selective service classification for men not accepted under current standards, but who arc avail able and who would be quali fied in an emergency, he added. Until the contemplated changes in the regulations are adopted, those men the local boards find would qualify in an emergency will keep their current classification. Local boards will continue to place in Class IV-F those men the Armed Forces are unlikely to need even in an emergency, Carter said. Armed Forces Examining stations will adapt their pro cedures to report to local boards after examination whether a man is currently qualified, may be qualified in an emergency, or is unlikely to be needed for military serv ice even in an emergency, Car ter added. The state director pointed out that current standards of acceptability have resulted in high rejection rates. Many of those men not being accepted today and who are now classi fied IV-F would have to serve in an emergency under altered standards. Identification in advance of men qualified in an emer gency will permit the local boards to save time in meet ing mobilization requirements in an emergency. The new procedures, Carter said, provide a more realistic picture of tile manpower re sources for an emergency. They will, he added, also em phasize that rejection is tem porary and that a IV-F classi fication does not mean a man is unable at any time 1o con tribute by military service, or to pursue vital civilian activi les as circumstances may re quire. Approximately 23,339 men are classified IV-F in Oregon as of June .10, out of 211,5(i5 men classified by local boards since 1948. Fewer will be put in this class in the future under the new procedures. a beautiful "new room" in just one day with 'HE DELUXE LATEX WALL PAINT MICM1ISTS IN HOMlWAU$l 245 5.
