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."

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.
