Thursday afternoon at th"
Tord proving ground here.
Representing various new
papers and press associatio
nation-wide, the youths co
verged .on the Detroit-Deai-born
area Wednesday for the
fourth annual Ford National
Teen-Age Press conference.
Following a safety talk and
d e m 0 n s t ration, interested
newsmen could compete in
the Teeri-Age Truck Driving
contest, with awards going to
top drivers. Contestants were
required to drive through an
obstacle course set up at the
.track.
; Assisting the teen-agers in
-the contest were the five wirt
i ners of the 1960 National
Truck rodeo held earlier this
year for professional naviga
tors. The "champs" were Le-

Meanwhile, the girls were
treated to rides in 1961 Ford
lightweight trucks driven by
Ford's top test-drivers. A few
newspaper women were ' al
lowed to test-drive the vehi
cles. They didn't operate the
heavy-duty tank trucks, as did
the boys.
Special communication : fa
cilities were made available
to the teen-age press at the
test track. '::-xi'.i!-,-J:'.'i.-.-;.
Hornbrook - Jess Grisham,
Siskiyou county agricultural
commissioner, has reminded
all bee colony owners that
they are required by Califor
nia law to register their col
onies by Nov. 1.
Registrations may be made
at the agricultural commis
sioner's office in the county
courthouse in Yreka, Grisham
said. Registration forms are
available in his office, Gris
ham said.
Grisham also reminded
owners that any change of a
colony location must be re
corded in his office. This is
required to facilitate annual
state inspection of bees for
contagious diseases.

west of the Mississippi River.
from Winnipeg to Washington
have been holding YMCA
World Service drives to raise
their share of the total- goal,
Pierce said. In Medford, the
Y hopes to raise at least $500.
A major portion of the mon
ey will go to support YMCA
fraternal secretaries overseas,
Pierce pointed out. Last year,
51 men were maintained in
31 countries. Some are experts
in boy's work, in physical ed
ucation, in administration, but
the main task of each is to
train local leaders to take
over the jobs themselves.
Helps Strengthen Ys
World Service also helps
strengthen Ys in other coun
tries through grants for spe
cial programs, most of them in
the field of leadership train
ing, Pierce said. Other grants,
however, help in such varied
work as camping, adult edu
cation, rural reconstruction,
conferences, and publications.
Emergency grants will aid
refugees in 11 countries.
'North American funds also
help to support the World Al
liance of YMCAs. Headquar

nates Y work in the 77 coun

ice money is sent overseas,
Pierce remarked. Some funds
are spent to bring Y men from
other lands to North America

Church of the Brethren, has
been named to a La Verne,
Calif., college committee to

Ys committee on friendly re

dents, which helps thousands
of foreign students every year
make the most of their stay
in North America. Some mon
ey makes possible the Y's in
ternational education pro
gram, led by Nicholas Goncha
roff, which is helping deepen
thousands of North Ameri
can's understanding of world
issues through forums and
seminars.
The Ys of North America
have been helping Ys over
seas since 1889, Pierce said.
Last year more than 800 as
sociations in the United States
and Canada took part. Con
tributors numbered in the
thousands. They ranged from
Y campers who save part of
their weekly allowance and
teenagers who wash cars to
contribute to leaders in
ness and industry, Pierce
bust-said.
