Pickin' Pears Newt and Note From Camp White By WALTER TOWNSEND A look around the busy shops the other day was like preview of what is to be seen this afternoon at the An nual Hobby Fair. Larry Wall was putting the finishing touches of the ir-brush work he will dis play. Besides making artistic use of this media, he does doz ens of charts which show many phases of Veterans ad ministration progress and op erations. Since he has come to the Domiciliary he has done further study in this old re awakened skill. One eye-catching item is a large beautifully carved tray of myrtlewood. The craftsman, Robert Evatt, also has some different canes. Close by were some boxes carefully inlaid by Arthur Miller who sal vages many bits of scrap wood that no one else can use. Sanding Shelve Elmer Hartgrave was busy sanding one of the four knick knack shelves he is complet ing, a real accomplishment since he has not worked in wood before. Carry-over pre cision from auto mechanics aided Henry Hudson's con struction of an inlaid cutting board. Gun racks and a small cedar chest are being crafted for showing by George Butts. As his hobby, Clyde Whit ney creates and repairs toys; some to be seen are in minia ture. Fishermen will be lured by Hugh Parrlsh's flies, and the Fishing club display. The model covered wagons, hand iwork of Earl Redfern will surprise everyone who pulls the tongue down! Two unus ual types of lampshades will be seen, one in reed-craft, the other made from nylon hose. One-of-a-kind entries in clude a radio converter by Harry Telford, who also Court To Discuss Low-Pitched Roofs The Jackson county court will discuss further advise- ability of a low-pitched roof recommended by the archi tect for the new restaurant and service building planned for Howard Prairie lake rec reation area, County Judge Earl Miller said Friday. Wayne Struble, of Payne and Struble. Medford archi tects, wrote the county court that the U.S. forest service had approved such a roof de- sicnaor snow areas, and tnat such roofs are on ouiiaings at Diamond lake. Jackson county parks and recreation commission Chair man Robert J. Keeney, Med ford architect, suggested the low pitched roof design, istru- ble added. . . Struble also wrote that a low pitched roof capable of suDoorting ISO pounds per square foot is safe. This type roof would result In less dam age from sliding snow, some what less damage to struc tures from snow drifts, and less structural damage to the building from heavy snow fall. Miller said plans have been submitted to the national bark service, but no word has been received yet. . ... makes model molds; and a viewing scope and tripod by Albert B. Smith. Ona-Man Exhibit Talented Stanley Keen is working on a one-man exhib it, interesting, impressionistic and enlightening, since it de picts a form of art from the prehistoric cave period to the modernistic, , futuristic pres ent. . In the lapidary area Oscar 1 Fors and Fred Keller are pre senting specimen slices and completed projects as is O. Lee Hayes. The versatile Mr. Hayes is also entering his fine examples of Indian lore; bow and arrows, a war bonnet, a shield and modern bow and arrows. Knitting and hand weaving displays will feature stoles, mats, hot pads and other ar ticles by Emil Hieb, Egbert Al.'ord, Jesse Carson, and Chester Staves, plus a pillow and afghan of striking colors and design by Herbert King. Examples of loom and rug weaving will be shown by S. Quam, C. Caughlin, and E. Brauer. Leather Work Exhibits The largest number of par ticipants will be in the leath er work division. Some of the members, L. L. Jackman, Mike Jones, Hobart Kittleson, Tom Mick and Dick Peterson among them, have worked in leather as a hobby for many years and the articles they are exhibiting are skillfully done. More than 15 other men who have worked less time as leather hobbyists are proudly (and justly so) showing theltf Drotects so artistically and well done, also proving that it doesn't take years to ac quire a new skill If one Is Interested. All kinds of wal lets, belts, stirrup bags; key cases, purses and various mis cellaneous Items are lnciucsea, even one bowling bag. In sneaking of trends it de veloped that there will ba more painting and color on the leather, and that some o the purses will be a new styia handbag type, with two han dles instead of one. ,. Members of the Stamp club will display their collections, and the Garden club will help with the flowers. T.ara.
