In the btg old white frame house to which he retired t Gardiner, after many years as the crusading eauor of the Eugene Register Guard, Bill Tugman last sum mer shared with a couple of visitors his thoughts about this last literary venture. His visitors and others en couraged him to write that book, and subsequently a large eastern publisher ex pressed Interest to the Idea, The title ol Bill Tugman's book was to be "There Are No Great Men," It would have been a won- derf ul collection of Instructive yarns, as only Tugman could tell them to that colorful, can- did way that cut through the bluff and froth of human events, Contemporaries would have enjoyed reliving the live ly times through which he and Oregon have passed tinea the Twenties, Needid for Example The tragedy, however, Is that generations to come need BUI Tugman's book - not so much for the readable stories as for his example. They need to know that In this conform ist age there i commendable virtue In his conviction that a man can be respected for making the right enemies s well as the right friends, They need to see Bill Tug man down in the arena of life with his shirtsleeves rolled high, never content to sit com fortably In an editorial tower tut-tutting about the errors of a troubled world, A generation which asks first "How much does It payt needs to know that he accu mulated no riches but many, many were deeply In his debt because Bill Tugman gave his time and he gave himself. It should also be recorded that In his last paying job, as field representative tor new 1 3-5333 Out on Bill Tugman congressman h helped eiect, Tugman would accept no: more than $100 a month tor! services worth many times that amount. Generation! to com need to remember that he eared bout them and their future.

His ailing heart had to take a back seat to his crusade, - Conciion Ts Heart After several days ot long talks, Tugman explained that he had to attend meeting of the state park advisory board in a town far up the coast the next day. H plan ned to set out that night to be certain he made it, He made one concession to his weakened heart. When a tat employee arrived to drive him on thta overnight trek, Tugman sat him down to his living room, swallowed Ma pills and stretched out on the davenport for an hour aft er dinner as his doctor had ordered. But all the while he conducted an animated reivew of the problem of providing recreational opportunities for a growing population, The hour up, he grabbed his hat and plunged into the dark.
