Duncan, Medford. Mrs. Dun can discusses some of the early bills introduced and life in Salem.) By MARIJANE DUNCAN Though this legislative scs slon officially began Monday, Jan; 9, with the election of officers in the two houses and the Gov ernors mes sage, actual work started W e d n e sday Tuesday was devoted to an orient ation conference, IMarijiino inm.an new wrinme instituted by Ihe Legislative Counsel, which served to ac custom tlie new members, or freshmen, to some of the rou tine of legislative life. 1 The first bills in the hopper on Wednesday were number ed from 1001 through 1011, and were committee bills -that is, introduced via in terim committees. This re served a block of numbers which will be used by in dividual bills as they are in troduced one and two at a time. It also serves to quickly identify bills from particular committees - for , instance, tax ation' bills start with the num ber 1000 - ways and means with 2000. The rules were suspended on the first two work days In order lo gel the bills imme diately into committee. Ordin arily a bill (or rather, lis title) must be read on two succeed ing days before being refer red by the Speaker to the ap propriate committee. Suspend ing the rules simply enables the committees to get right to work on legislation. Other action has been taken to insure a fast start (and per haps an curly end) to this ses sion. Early morning and eve ning committee meetings and hearings arc already being scheduled. Already the work ers In Engrossed and Enrolled Bills arc talking about the heavy work-load. Generally one doesn't henr this until the come In changes the preferen tial primary bill so that a can didate for President or Vice President whose name has been entered by petition may withdraw it by iiling an aft davit with the Secretary of States. House Bill 1003 rimes basic school support lo SI 15 per census child and specifies S10 per census child (between 4 and 20) as property tax offset. Another House Bill would change the law so that when an office becomes vacant, the appointee does not have to be of the same political party as his predecessor. Lots of mall has been re ceived by legislators concern ing tlie proposal to move up to July the date of require ment of a child's sixth birth day for school admission. Mothers of prospective first graders, including many leg islative wives, express them selves In no uncertain terms as opposed to this.

The first, of course, was the election of a speaker for the second consecutive session. Then Bob appointed himself to a committee - judiciary -which had not been done be fore. However, there is a shortage of lawyers in the House, so he was needed. Since this is always a busy committee with lots of bills to consider, it will mean cram ming his already full daily schedule. This afternoon, for instance, besides judiciary meeting at 1, Bob has three or four appointments and at least six or eight people or delegations will "drop in." He has a 6 o'clock dinner meet ing and a speaking engage ment at 8. Nor is this an atypical calendar for him. Social events are squeezed in, mostly during evening hours. Governor and Mrs. Hatfield led off with a recep tion the Sunday before the opening of the session. Legis lators wives had looked for ward to viewing the interior of their newly - decorated house, which they had only started to remodel last ses sion. It proved just as elegant as magazines and newspaper articles had described it. Some mothers of young children couldn't help reflecting on what problems would arise when the H a t f I e I ds' two youngsters grow older and livelier. The Oregon Farm Bureau and Lebanon Chamber of Commerce have put on their traditional dinners for legis lators and their Wives. At the former, Bob (in absentia) and Senate President Boivin were presented with handsome Stetsons. I accepted Bob's and found it fit me just about right. Senator Boivin's was too small for him, so both hats had to be exchanged. This occasioned some com ment about what happened to head-sizes when people were elected to public office. One of tlie highlights of the, dinner in Lebanon was a pro-j gram of excellent music fur-; nislied by a local choral group. , They sang selections from Oklahoma and had several; fine soloists.

Results of Mapping Of Crater Lake To Be Article Subject San Francisco-The Nation al Park service announced today that an analysis of the charts resulting from the un derwater mapping of Crater lake will be published in an article in the forthcoming February issue of the "Amer ican Journal of Science." The mapping survey was done in 1959 at Crater Lake National park by officers of the U.S. coast and geodetic survey under cooperative re search agreement with the National Park service. The resulting underwater map shows that the deepest part of Crater lake is 1,932 feet, somewhat less than the previously estimated depth of 1,996 feet. The lake, how ever, remains the deepest in the United States and seventh in the -world. The National Park service requested Dr. Howel Wil liams of the department of geology, University of Cali fornia in Berkeley, to under take the analysis of the hy drographic charts. Dr. Wil liams is a recognized author ity on the geology of Crater lake. Describes New Volcano In his article, Dr. Williams describes a newly discovered volcano with a nearly sym metrical cone rising 1,320 feet from the floor of the caldera under the blue waters of Crater lake. He calls this volcano the Merriam Cone after the late John C. Merriam, former President of the Carnegie Institute of Washington, and former chairman of the De partment of Paleontology at the University of California, Berkeley campus. Dr. Mer riam's son, Lawrence C. Mer riam, is the National Park in of service regional director San Francisco. Bottom Samples Dr. Williams' analysis the floor of the lake was aided by a collection of bot tom samples secured by Carl ton H. Nelson, University of Minnesota graduate student in geology, as a part of a thesis he is preparing on the Crater lake region. Merriam said today that Dr. Williams' article repre sents the success of one of a number of cooperative re- Reservists Complete Required Training Nearly half of the enlisted personnel attached to Naval Reserve Electronics division 13-5, Medford, completed their required two - weeks active duly for training during the first half of the current fiscal year.

This research, Merriam said, is creating new knowledge in the fields of natural sci ence, history, and archeology, that is proving of great value to students in these fields, and the National Park serv ices program of interpreta tion of the parks for their millions of visitors. soil rvn llJ for Oregon Drivers!
