His subject will be "Back ground History of Develop ment of the Timber Industry in the Douglas Fir Region." The meeting will be at 8 p.m. at the American Red Cross building on Hawthorne ave. Smith's colored slides will show both industrial and non industrial tree farms where attempts are being made to bring lands back into produc tion. 1 Chapter directors and Ken Denman, chairman of the or ganization's legislative com mittee have been active late ly. Letters have been sent out throughout Oregon with the chapter resolution opposing proposed inclusion of the state fish commission and the state game commission In a depart ment or natural resuurces. This is proposed in Senate Bills 3 and 2. .5 before the State Legislature. Fish Pond Bill ' The board also is working to get House Bill 1228 chang ed. The bill, relating to use of Big Butte creek waters, would amend Oregon Statuted 538.430, a law which gives the City of Medford the exclusive right to use the waters of Big Butte and its tributaries for municipal purposes. An amendment was asked by the game commission so that a fish rearing pond could be de veloped on McNeil creek. This would not actually use up waters. Before the bill was Intro duced the city asked that the words "game commission" be changed to "other parties," thus permitting other parties to impound and use waters of Big Butte and its tributar ies under, conditions prescrib ed by the city administration. The Waltonian board is working to get the. words "game commission" restored and the city is said to have adopted a neutral position, Concrete & Equipment OSC Quint Entertains WSU, Idaho REGIONAL RECORDS: ' W. t.

Game time is 8 p.m., follow ing a preliminary between the OSC Rooks (8-4) and Cen tralis college. The Beaver var sity goes against Idaho here Saturday night, with the Rooks facing Oregon Medical Dental school of Portland. Oregon State vitally needs a sweep of the series to stay in contention for the "Race to the Regionals" NCAA berth. Two losses to Oregon last week end proved costly, since former front-runner Seattle also lost twice. Washington State and Idaho have been two of the most improved clubs in the west the last two weeks. The Cou gars bumped Stanford by 20 points, and Monday upset Seattle. Idaho trounced the Chieftains, 89-70, last Satur day. Disappointed Coach Slats Gill, naturally disappointed over his club's showing against Oregon, is hopeful the Beavers can bounce back in the week end set coming up. And there may be some new. faces in OSC's lineup, he has indicated in practice. Ernie Johnson Is one re serve destined for more serv ice, as is Stan Stafford. Those two have been in the thick of the fight for starting berths this week, along with Bob Jacobson, Terry Baker, Karl Anderson, Steve ' Pauly, Jay Carty, Jim Woodland, Steve Flynn and Bill Wold. . WSU has plenty of top point producers, headed by 6-8 Charlie Sells, Floyd Da mon and Nick August. Idaho, under new coach Joe Cipri ano, has shown more hustle than any other. Vandal quint in years. WSU and Idaho meet Uni versity of Oregon on the op posite nights from OSC.
