An EXCEPTIONAL OPPORTUNITY
BROKER COOPERATION INVITED
By DOUGLAS GRIPP
United Press International
Salem - tl'Pli - "Winnemucca-to-the-Sea"
is a colorful east
west highway from Winne
mucca, Nov., through south
ern Oregon that is on the
brink of big things. But one
burning question remains:
Where is the sea?
Boosters in Crescent City,
Calif., are quick to say that
the Pacific Ocean terminus is
Crescent City.
In Coos Bay, Ore., boosters
insist hotly that the best ter
minus is Coos Bay, the "only
deep water port between San
Francisco and the Columbia
river."
President James F. Johnson
of the Coos Bay Port Com
mission calls it a "multi-mil-
1 nun uuimr cuiiMun I'cunom
! ically.
i Pooh-poohing Loos Bay s
bid. Crescent City Title com
pany President Andy Flynn
noted that the Oregon coastal
towns of Brookings and Gold
Beach plus Areata and Eureka
on the California coasl all had
bids in once for the western
terminus. But Eureka and Ar
eata have "stepped aside" for
Crescent City, and Gold Beach
and Brookings don't seem to
be in the running, he said.
Romantic as it sounds. Winnemucca-to-the-Sea
isn't an
official name, and no one can
recall who thought it up years
ago. Nevada Highway Engin
eer Otis Wright said in Reno
thai his department has un
officially accepted this desig
nation. Name Not Recognized
The Oregon highway de
partment doesn't recognize
the name officially or other
wise, and doesn't intend to.
"It's just a slogan," said High
way Engineer Forrest Cooper.
He also made it plain that his
department has nothing to do
with the Crescent City-Coos
Bay question.
The route is actually many
highways right now, between
400 and 500 miles long.
Heading north from Winnc
mucca on U.S. 95, the pave
ment goes for 140 miles, end
owing abruptly at the Oregon
line.
A major breakthrough came
April 13 when Oregon award
ed a $366,659 contract for
surfacing 21.5 rugged miles
from the Oregon-Nevada bor
der west to Oregon's 6.120
foot high Blizzard Gap. When
completed this summer - at
about $17,000 a mile - all ot
Winnemucca-to-the-Sea will be
surfaced.
The route snakes westward
through the mountain and
desert country of Southern
Oregon's skirt to Adcl and
Lakeview, onto Oregon High
way 66 and through Klamath
Falls, Ashland, Medford and
Grants Pass.
From Grants Pass. Winne-
mucca-to-the-Sca could turn
southwest on U.S. 199, the
Redwood Highway, and go to
Crescent City. Or, it could
head north on U.S. 99 to
Roscburg and cut over on
curvy Highway 42. now being
rebuilt, to Coos Bay.
Association Formed
There is a Winncmucca-lo-the-Sca
Association (WTTSA)
formed in 1959, made up of
officials from six counties
Lake, Klamath. Jackson and
Josephine in Oregon; Hum
boldt in Nevada, and Del
Norte in California. Coos
County - and thus Coos Bay-
is notably missing.
Frank Bengochea of Winne
mucca, chairman of the Hum
boldt County board of com
missioners, says Coos Bay is a
johnny-come-lately that is out
of luck. He favors Crescent
City.
Crescent City's Flynn, an
honorary director of WTTSA,
says "everyone has a selfish
interest in this, but we hap
pen to be in the right spot."
In Grants Pass, Josephine
County Commissioner Louis
Ringuctte says there is "no
question" about the Crescent
City terminus. At Lakeview,
retired Lake County Judge
Chris H. Langslcl, considered
the "father" of the present
Winnemucca plan, agrees.
But one of Oregon's most
powerful legislators. State
Rep. Clarence Barton, hap
pens to be from Coos County.
He has warnrd the fight isn't
over. Criticizing Ringueltc's
stand, the Coquillc Democrat
said "this is a typical dog in
the manger attitude you run
into in Josephine County. As
long as the route goes through
Grants Pass, they shouldn't
care where it ends. They
ought to be trying to develop
Oregon instead of California."
Meanwhile, WTTSA is ju
bilant over completion of the
paving A celebration is
planned on the lonely Oregon
Nevada border Sept. 22-23.
The governors of Oregon,
Nevada and California will
be invited.

FEEDNG WILD
The time is not too far
away when sonic of us will
be finding baby birds that
have fallen out of nests and
arc in desperate need of a
helping hand to survive.
Mrs. Lenore Evans of
Klamath Agency, Oregon,
who has had much experience
in caring for wild birds, gives
some much-needed advice to
those of us who have been
unsuccessful in raising these
little wild creatures.
She writes:
"In caring for wild birds,
nestlings should be handled as
little as possible, and, if you
can manage it, feed them ev
ery 15 minutes, or at least,
every 30 minutes.
"Young nestlings cat read
ily, but older fledglings may
balk at first. Just hold them
gently and force their beaks
open until they learn the task.
Most flcdhngs are fed pro-di
gested food, so great care
must be taken in feeding ar
tificially. "Don't worry about giv
ing water to baby birds.
They will get enough from
their food. Many people
kill me babies with too
much moisture. When they
begin to grow, dip their
little beaks into water, just
the tips, and they will soon
learn to take a little when
and if they want it.
"A good basic diet (not for
hummingbirds) is equal parts
of finely mashed yolks of
hard-boiled eggs and finely
sifted dried bread crumbs
moistened slightly with milk.
Do not make the mixture
'mushy.' This mixture is used
for very young babies.
"If they have survived the
week, add corn meal and
finely crushed nuts for sccd-
eating birds; add worms or
meat for in.cct eaters. Give
this in gradually increased
amounts.
"Nasturtium and water
cress are rich in calcium and
Vitamins A and C with a bit
of Bl. Nasturtium leaves,
stems and buds, may be chop
ped line and added to a mix
lure of canned dog meal,
bread crumbss and hard-boiled
egg yolk.
"Seed-eating birds should
toon be given fine gravel
or charcoal, crushed seed,
chopped greens and fruit,
mealworms or other insects.
"I break off small tidbits of
green grapes or strawberries
to give to babies for the mois
ture content as well as the
food value, but I don't try
this until they have feathered
out a bit. Some tinier babies
need too much pre-digesting,
and fruit might upset them
"For woodpockcr babies
use canned dog meat with a
little cornmeal to simulate
acorn?, or crushed peanuts
Mealworms and milk fed from
an eyedropper are enjoyed.
"Feed them by hanr1. but
encourage them lo peck for
it themselves or you will
have lengthy problem
with 'spoiled child.' Poke
the tiny food balls down
the throat with medicine
dropper (just tip it in'o the
P.O. Box 252

Fish Lake Campground
Is Designed for Tents
orangewood stick used
manicuring. Any device
that won't hurt them will
suffice. With large-mouthed
babies juit poke it down
with a fingertip.
"Use the woodpecker diet
for magpie babies with more
meat added. Their mouths
are so enormous, even from
the first, that there is no
trouble feeding.
"For nutcrackers feed as
for woodpeckers: they adore
nuts chopped fine with more
nuts and cornmeal than meat
and vegetable matter.
"Hummingbirds are de
lightful babies and are easily
tamed. Rather than sugar and
water, use equal parts of hon
ey and water. The sugar-water
satisfies them but lacks
enough vitamins if used for
long periods of time.
"Feed them' often through
a small medicine dropper. The
babies prefer the syrup col
ored with a little bit of red
food coloring.
'When the baby appears
to be successfully growing,
add a bit of finely ..Uverized
dog meal lo the syrup.
Anyone interested in as
sisting birds is welcome lo
write to me. If I cannot
help them, I can always
consult with someone who
has more knowledge on the
subject than I."
House trailers or pickup
permitted within the limits of
permitted within the limits o
the Fish lake campground,
Rogue River National Forest,
according to C. E. Brown, for
est supervisor.
The campground was not
designed to accommodate
trailers. All camping units arc
intended for family- type
camping with tents or similar
facilities, he noted.
The state health code re
quiries that facilities for dis
posal of waste from trailers
be included in trailer camp
sites. Provision for this waste
disposal is not available.
Parking areas for each
camping unit arc designed to
accommodate a single vehicle
only, Brown noted. An influx
of trailer houses would reduce
the capacity of the camp
ground since the trailers
would need to occupy two
camping units for parking of
both vehicles.
Adequate trailer house fa
cilities with connections for
water supply, lights, power,
and disposal of waste arc
available at a nominal charge
from the resort owner, Lloyd
Morris, adjacent to the camp
ground. These facilities meet
the requirements of the slate
health code, Brown said.
