8 A Greafer Voice To Farmers Indicated Salem-fflPfr-Federal author ization for agricultural self help programs would give a greater voice to northwest farmers, Assistant, U. S. Sec retary of Agriculture James T. Ralph said Tuesday. Ralph said such authoriza tion, now pending before Con gress, has a 50-90 chance of passage. If approved, he told Oregon Director of Agriculture James F. Short, it would provide northwest farmers with a , voice "consistent with their ' Share of the market." Ralph predicted if the leg islation goes through, turkey and pea nutgrowers would take advantage of it right away, and apple growers would undertake the self-help program during the first year. Ralph said he believed wheat growers would delay a year before starting the pro gram. PREMIER RESIGNS ' 1 ' ' ,.

Judge Solomon said he would withhold opinions until the remainder of the case is heard July 19. Robert S. Oavnnr Nui York City, brought the suit against G-P officers, directors and three associated firms. Gaynor contends that G-P ex ecutive vice president John S. Brandis realized profits to the firms' detriment because of conflict of interest Major Argument The major argument Tues day was whether the firm's board of directors had author ity to nesotlate a stock chase option and stock trans fer arrangement with Brandis without specific aDDroval of terms of the transaction by the stockholders. The July 19 trial will be to hear contentions bv the nlnln. tiff that Brandis realized ex cessive profits by sale of G-P timber to Plywood Products Corp. while president of the plywood firm. Judge Solomon held that Gaynor, who purchased 70 shares of G-P stock after early 199S and was the original plaintiff, should be substi tuted by another stock holder. The new plaintiff is Janet Stone, also of New York City, who owns 200 shares of G-P stock.

(Copyright General Features Corp.) Gold Beach Airport In Federal Plans Washlngton-OIID-Sen. Mau- rine Neuberger (D-Ore.), said today she has been advised the Federal Aviation Agency Is Including the Gold Beach. Ore., airport in its current fiscal year federal aid to air port program. She said the proposed al location of $92,127 would per mit acquisition of a site of about 85 acres, preparation of the site and construction of a runway 3,200 by 75 feet, taxiways, apron and other facilities. Mrs. U. H-He looks so out of place in school, he should transfer. Kenneth H.-I don't find my height a hindrance, except at dances. Mrs. U. H-I a 1 1 e n d e d a Parents' Assembly" at Ken's high school last week and my heart ached for him. He's only 15 and in the fourth term but, believe it or not, he's 6 feet, five inches already and still growing. Wherever he was, standing in line or seat ed among his classmates, he stood out like a mistlt. With two more years to go, I think it would be better for his morale to transfer to an evening high school and be among adults than to go along literally "looking down on people." He can work during the day. In college, he can return among young people. By then he won't be so con spicuous. ', Kenneth H. -My mother must be putting herself in my place because she was the tallest In her own high school class, too. But maybe it's dif ferent for a boy, because I'm perfectly content about my size. Outside of school dances, I participate in all activities. I play outfield on our sopho more baseball team, but I'm on our varsity basketball team which is headed for a tourna ment championship. I play forward, natch. , ' I want to stay in this school. My marks are good, I study hard and I hope to go to col lege. Getting there and stay ing there are my only wor ries now, not my height. That's my mother's worry and I wish she'd lay oft. . The council! Where non conformity was painful, evi dently, for Mrs. H., it doesn't seem to bother Kenneth one generation later. His position is sound since he's a normal 15-year-old at heart, even though that heart is about a foot further from the ground than his classmates'. Minister Halts Rock 'n' Roll On Church Bells cawinstowa, cngland Om-The Rev. Harry Pickles put a halt today to the rock 'n roll and - jan ' that has been ringing out on his church bells. ' Parishioners have heard "When the Saints Go March ing In" and Elvis Presley's "Wooden Hut" reverberat ing from the bell lower re cently. "It's the new tat of young bell ringers," the vicar ex plained Tuesday. "They of ten do It when I'm not around." Breeders Tour Is Slated on Sunday The Cal-Ore Hereford Breeders annual tour and steak dinner will be held Sun day from 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. The tour starts at the Seven Oaks ranch, IVi miles north of Central Point on Highway 99.

Purpose of the tour la to acquaint the people of the area with the putebred live stock program, and to build good will toward the live stock industry. Canadian Ships To Visit Rose Festival Portland - (WD - A total of 14 ships of the Royal Cana dian1 Navy will be in Portland June 7-12 for the Rose Festival. Vice Adm. C. A. Melson, commander of the First Fleet, will be In command. The ships will tie up at the Willamette river seawall. We agree with the boy fur ther that his mother must not assume he is suffering because she, as a tall teener among petite dainty coeds, suffered in her day. The tall boy hasJ many ego compensations to balance any feelings of gawkiness and awkwardness. And his contemporaries will spring up "overnight" to keep him company up there in the stratosphere of those halls of learning. In the Sixties, according to statistics, about 40 per cent of the young men entering college will stand 8 feet or more. This is quite a contrast to the 4 per cent who meas ured that marry inches in 1883. So tallness is becoming rather ho-hum. . Both the very tall and the very short, it is admitted, may nave special adjustment prob lems. These involve the temp tation to expect special atten tion for (or blame special dis appointments on) one's dimen sion's. Once in a while, suspi cion of such injustice may be valid. But usually, one must assume, the attitude of those who really "matter" hinges on considerations of personal ity, skill, intellect and other variables. Perhaps the day will come when, thanks to current re search with growth hormones extracted from the human pituitary gland, boys like Ken neth . can have a say about how tall (or short) they want to be. But until then Ken neth is wise enough to want to be the size he is, when he is and where he is right now among his peers. ' Mrs. H. must drop the is sue. Her son must not be spirited away for two years like a skeleton In her closet. He's no freak. He's just anoth er growing boy. even after Judge Waters re minded him five years was the minimum sentence for armed robbery. Public Dance To Mark Armed Forces Week A public dance marking Armed Forces week will be held in the National Guard Armory south of Medford starting at 9 p.m. Saturday, according to the local Army recruiting office. , Music will be provided by the Down Beats.
