Table Rock Ralph Lingenfeltcr of Portland, who
died Sunday morning at the Jess Elder home, was in
terested in the Vermillion mine, now being developed on
the lop of Lower Table Rrock. He with three companions
had gone to the mine in a jeep and had just arrived
at the mine when he suffered a heart attack. He was
taken in the jeep to the Elder home where artifical
respiration was applied while a phone call was made
for an ambulance. On arrival of the ambulance an oxy.
gen tent was put to work, but death. had won the race.
We failed to learn the names of Mr. Lingenfelter's com
panions, but presume they were Portland people.
, Fin Causes Scare
A grass fire that started Sunday near the junction
nf the Modoc and Antioch roads traveled fast and caused
quite a little excitement among people in up river area.
Ray Ryan, the rancher-realtor, who came near getting
singed while trying to get a path around it with his
caterpillar tractor, says he was scared worse than any
time in his life. A. C. Allen, Sr. phoned to tell us he
wall all right, but it would take some time to get over
his scare. The flames pushed by a strong wind for a time,
were headed toward the Allen buildings, and it re
quired some fast work on the part of those on the fire
lines to save them. A. C. has a house close to the river
hank, and at times has been threatened by flood waters.
We asked him if the flames were worse than the flood
waters. He said definitely, yes. The river gives you time
to get out while the flames were traveling miles an
hour. We remember one time during a flood, A. C. lay
fast asleep while the murky waters came under the door,
and were gushing under his bed.
The Bray buildings for a time were almost surround
ed by fire, but the Bray boys got out a garden hose, and
kept the roofs wet, until the wind died down. Some
people who saw the fire right after it started thought it
was started by a careless cigarette smoker.
Mrs. Gene Moreland, and four children, who have
been staying with her parents at the Jess Elder home
left Wednesday to join her husband. Staff Sg't. Moreland
who is stationed in Guam, with the Air Force.
Cheese Strike
The strike at the Vella cheese factory brings this
form of settling disputes closer to home and will mean
a lot of surplus milk on farms that have been supplying
the cheese factory with milk. Old bossy won't know
about the strike and will go on producing.
With all the many strikes in progress, we wonder if
it isn't about time for the farmers to put one one. Most
strikes are put on because laborers think their product
which is labor, is not bringing enough. Much of the time,
farmers do not get enough out of their products to pay
the cost of production. A farmer told us during the time
that so much griping was going on about supports, and
farmers were spoken of as the greedy old farmers riding
on the gravy train, that we should all close up and take
a year's rest.. He said this would leach the gripers to
have more respect for the people who feed the world.
This farmer could have done this because he had a side
line, where he really made his money.
Jc:s Elder has s, tin six rattlesnakes since the season
opened. One was a vicious specimen who slashed at Elder
without giving the usual warning rattle, missed his
mark, hut was quickly put out of commission by a well
aimed shot from Elders 22 pistol.
Gat Smashed
Last Sunday morning the neighborhood was awaken
ed by barking dogs and prowlers. A pickup truck was
driven through one farm, all gates left open, and when
fhe last gale was reached, the pickup was driven through
It, smashing the gate, and landing the car in an irriga
tion ditch where it lay until pulled out by a tractor. The
Slate police located the car owner, who paid damages,
but was not the driver of the pickup, having loaned it
to a friend. We understand that liquor was involved in
this mixup.
Several local telephones were out Tuesday when a
truck with a huge log turned turtle on the curve near
the Table Rock store. The truck was driven by Jerry
Kirklin, who was shook up, but no injuries. He said it
happened so quick, he didn't know whether the brakes
locked, or the log shifted. The truck was damaged ex
tensively, and when the windshield fell out, the driver
came out through the hole where the windshield had
been

brought in plants, flowers and seeds.
