Parent Pelicans Waiting
For Pitter of Pelicin Feel
On the sandy shore of a de
serted island, basking under
a tropical sun, we found a
"love nest." Soon on that slop
ing beach will be the patter
of little feet, for Mrs. Eastern
Brown Pelican is incubating a
clutch of eggs.
Many of the pilings and
bridge rails were strangely
empty now, and would be un
til the nesting was over. Peli
can Pete and Pelican Phyllis
have romance on their minds,
The sand on which the eggs
are resting is warm and soft
The surrounding water is
teeming with fish.
Like a magnet attracts iron
filings, the isolated islands
and keys beckon to nesting
pelicans. There a benevo
lent and ever watchful gov
ernment agency is ready and
able to protect the romantic
pelican couples from outside
interference. Somehow the
birds seem to know, for they
come from miles around con
centrating on these protected
rookeries.
Talk Together
. What a great Joy 11 is for
birds who may not have seen
each other for months to get
together and gabble, renewing
old friendships. Some gather
in small groups of six, or eight
birds, heads together, obvious
ly visiting with one another.
There must be much to talk
about; maybe they even "run
down" some absent member
or one late in arriving at the
rookery. Some of the "girls"
may have heard of an indiscre
tion in the pelican world.
Perhaps some may tell
their willing youngsters how
utterly worthless their "old
man" is, gallivanting around
the bays and waterways while
"she" is wearing her feet
down or up to her knees.
Start Families
After the conversations, ev
ery female pelican begins lay
ing eggs. Mr. Pelican, when he
is not fishing, may come In
from time to time to try to
help. The nests may be close
enough together for the
"girls" to converse with one
another by voice and gesture.
Dozens of pelicans there are,
and all devoted to a single
purpose - to produce a peli
can population for tomorrow's
sunny beaches.
It would seem to the rest of
us that parental love could
withstand any shock after
looking at a baby pelican.
Probably the gawky little
ones are as near and dear to
pelican parents as the most
precious baby is to Its human
mother.
Maybe, after all, love is a
little blind.

Congress Probing
Auto Industry's
Horsepower Pilch
Detroit - fl'PD - Congress has
quirtly started another inves-
tisation of the auto industry's
use of speed and horsepower
to sell new cars, it has been
learned.
Chairman Oren Harris of
the House Interstate and For
eign Commerce committee be.
gan the inquiry with letters- to
the presidents of all the major
auto companies.
The Arkansas congressman
asked the auto executives to
furnish his committee with
copies of all recent advertise
ments which stress horse
power and speed.
Harris, a Democrat, said he
understands the industry has
abandoned a 1957 agreement
not to advertise performance
and instead to stress safety
in today's cars.
Help. Sales
The five - year - old stand
against racing was taken by
the Automotive Manufac
turers after Congress warned
thai carmakers were placing
"excessive stress on horse
power and speed" and Indi
cated federal controls might
be necessary.
But the industry has found
it difficult if not impossible
to follow the spirit of the
agreement. "People like to
see cars like they own win
races," one auto man said.
"How the cars do. can help or
hurt sales."
So, despite Ihe AMA ban,
automakers are still sponsor
ing racing teams in one way
or another, according to
Sluriebaker President Sher
wood Egbert. The horsepower
race is still on, too.
Pontiac now offers a 420
horsepower engine. Plymouth,
Ford and Chevrolet also are
in the 400-plus class. One
engineer predicts 700 horse
power supercharged passenger
car engines before too long.
Say Cars Safer
The industry points out,
however, that despite the big
power-plants, cars today are
safer than ever. Carmakers
spend millions yearly on new
safety features. And they cita
figures showing that in 1909,
the last big year of the horse
and buRgy, the death rate was
five times higher than now.
Spokesmen for the auto
firms would not comment on
the latest government move
I except to say "We are con
i forming with the request and
getting together examples ot
our advertising."
Some of the ads bear out
Harris' contention that the in
dustry is again stressing horse
power and speed. A Chevrolet
ad lists the horsepower of a
big new V-8 engine at 409
and a Dodge ad proclaims
that the "Dart 440 handles
like a perfectly set up race
car."
Another ad says that world
driving champion Phil Hill is
"a Buick buff" and soon will
be driving the firm's new
"Wildcat" luxury sports car.
Job Opportunities
Said Some Better
Corvallls - Job opportun
ities are slightly better than
last year and good to excel
lent for 1962 college gradu.
ales In almost every field,
Oregon State university place
ment officers note.
Starting salaries, especially
for engineers and scientists,
re up about 3 to 4 per cent,
continuing a trend of the past
eight years.
Graduating students are
taking more interviews with
company recruiters than they
did in previous years. State
and federal civil service are
having difficulty In attracting
graduates because of the start
ing salary differential.
Companies with only east
ern locations are experiencing
a "reluctance" In attracting
graduates, placement officials
said.
OSU graduates will find
salaries varying upward from
$4,500 in some teaching Jobs
to more than $1,000 a month
in physics and mathematics
with a doctor's degree and ex
perience.
Not all 1962 graduates go
directly on the labor market.
Many male graduates have
military obligations and In
creasing numbers are going
on for advanced degree work,
officials noted.
Bandon Teacher to
Get Sanity Hearing
San Francisco tUPD A san
ity hearing will be held April
25 for Vivian E. Walker, a
Bandon, Ore., high school
teacher charged with robbing
a San Francisco grocery store.
He was arrested March 13
and was to have entered a
plea Wednesday. Instead two
physicians were appointed to
examine him and report their
finding at the hearing.
When arrested. Walker told
