Regional Roundup by Cleva Twitchelt Mail Tribune Regional Editor Most of the stories that appear on the regional page are written by members of our staff of 27 regional cor respondents. They write stories about other people and rarely about themselves because most of them are too modest to try that sort of thing. But I find that a good many of our correspondents do interesting and news worthy things, and so from time to time I attempt to give them a little attention. In the past we've discussed Bertha Hauscom of Phoe nix and her hobby of arrowhead collecting, comments on rattlesnakes and poetry about the lack of a hole in the new telephone book. We've mentioned Lauraine Laws of Rogue River and her skunk and Velda Barr of Prospect and her observations about what date the swallows return to Prospect each year. Last week we visited Louis Day, who sends in news items from the Trail creek area, and listened to him describe a plan he has come up with to aid Rogue val ley residents who get run down by out of state cars this summer. Get That License Number It's important. Day says, to gel the license number of the car that hits you, particularly if he keeps going. So Day recommends that everyone carry a small note book and pencil in a readily accessible pocket just for this purpose. "As soon as you get knocked down, roll over on your stomach as quickly as possible, get the paper and pencil out and start writing," he advises. "If your wristwatch isn't broken in the fall, It is also a good idea to record the time you were hit." Our Trail correspondent acknowledges that it is sometimes tough to get the license number of, a car, particularly if it is traveling away from you at 70 miles per hour. So he offers the following to aid you in de termining at least what state the car was from: If the plate has a shade of yellow on it, you have been hit by a car from California, New York, North Carolina or New Jersey. Pennsylvania has yellow on it too, but a majority of the plate in blue. If things look green to you. it's an auto from Alabama, Colorado, Washington, West Virginia, New Hampshire, Massachus etts or Hawaii. If you see red, it's South Carolina. If things look blue, you have met a driver from Con necticut, Maryland or Nevada. Wyoming plates are blue also, but the best thing to watch for on that plate is the bucking broncho and rider. It's a dead giveaway. If the license has the outline of a state on it, try Montana or Tennessee. If the plate has a flag in the upper left hand corner, you'll know it was from Alaska. What's the Flag For? Louis Day's place on Highway 42 about four miles northwest of Highway 62 is easy to find, especially be cause there is an American flag flying in front every day. Some of Day's experiences in connection with that flag offer an interesting commentary on the feelings of present-day Americans toward their flag. Cars with trail ers frequently pull up in front of Day's house, he said, and the drivers ask if his place is some kind of a govern ment camping area, or perhaps a trailer park. Once a candidate for political office stopped and asked Day if his house was a polling place. What-School-Did-They-Go-To Dept. Recently, Day reports, he typed a letter to the H. S. Frigate Constellation organization in Baltimore to order a medal struck from a copper nail aboard the ship, which was the first one the U.S. Navy had. The package came addressed to "Long Day" at "Trail, Iregon." Mo One Objects At Budget Hearing REGIONAL NEWS Gold Hill - No objections were voiced against the pro posed l!U2tS3 Gold Hill city budget w:ien presented at a public hearing Thursday. The budget had been approved by the city budget committee during a regular council meet ing June 7 and accepted by the council. During the hearing the council passed an ordinance, providing for levy of city taxes within the tax base lim itation of $12,153.10 for the fiscal year beginning July 1. Routine end of the fiscal year business was taken care of during a council meeting following the hearing Thurs day night. Other action by the council approved a liquor license for Jerry Jeroloman, who is to assume the management of Va.l Horn's Market on July 1. Councilman also favored a motion that all future permits for new buildings must be ap proved by a committee which will consist of four persons, who are either members of the city council or city plan ning commission. This action will follow the applications made at the recorder's office. Attention was given on matters pertaining to the housing agreement with Econ omy Housing company. A regular meeting of the council will be held tonight at 7 p.m. in the council room at the city hall on Second ave.

Cham berlain of Trail, made a trip to Portland recently where they attended the wedding of their granddaughter, Miss Donna Mason, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. B. W. Mason of Portland to Kim Hurley also of Portland. Eagle Point Members of the Eagle Point Scout-Community building's building committee have decided to request that their committees be dissolved and its functions assumed by the executive committee of the building's governing board. This action was fell wise since the membership of the building committee has dwin dled to about six in attend ance at meetings. The com mittee was originally com posed of representatives of all youth and adult groups and organizations and other interested citizens to formu late and carry out the con struction of the building. Since the major part of the building has been completed, the membership has gradual ly dropped off. This commit tee's functions, the members felt, could better be handled by the executive board Harold Hanscom reported that he had been contacted by a member of the Liens club with the offer to furnish concrete for the sidewalks and concrete work yet to be finished if tl'.2 Jayce,-s would construct the forms. Mrs. David Kahl reported the most of the existing bills were paid and approximately $300 was in the building fund. A motion was passed to have a stainless steel hood and one heating unit ordered and installed to complete the kitchen unit. It was also sug gested a high gloss sheet of aluminum be purchased for underneath the eight heating units. In final action the group passed a motion to instruct the treasurer to turn the funds over to the executive committee, with their appro val, with the recommenda tion that it be spent for both exterior and interior paint for the building. WINNERS Christy Chadwick, left, and Toni Burket won Hornbrook's Smokey Bear reading contest. o Smokey Bear Reading Contest Winners Named reading 10 books on the sub ject of conservation. On the closing day of the contest, members of the club were treated to a party with games and refreshments, by Mrs. Mary Kurt, librarian of the Hornbrook branch of the Siskiyou county library.
