Collins Returns
From Meetings
Of Park Officials
Charles Collins, executive
vice president of Cal-Ore Rec
reation Development associa
tion. Medford, returned this
week from two national meet
ings on outdoor recreation,
the American Institute of
park Executives at Kansas
City. Mo., and the American
Institute of park Executives,
at Zion, 111.
Dr. Edward C. Crafts, Wash
ington, D.C., director of the
new federal bureau of out
door recreation in the depart
ment of interior, was the key
speaker at both sessions.
State governments should
play pivotal roles in keeping
abreast of the increasing pub
lic pressure for outdoor rec
reation opportunities, the bu
reau director said.
It is too late for decisions
as to whether government
wishes to be in the recreation
business. Government al all
levels is now in that business,
like it or not, he added.
Consider Revenue Bonds
He suggested that states
and local governments might
consider revenue bonds as
means of financing capital
investments in outdoor rec
reation, Collins reported.
Role of the new bureau of
outdoor recreation is to pro
vide a focal point within the
federal government for out
door recreation activities.
The bureau is charged with
coordination of federal agen
cy outdoor recreation pro
grains, stimulation and pro
vision of technical, coopera
tive and planning assistance
to stales, sponsorship and
conduct outdoor recreation re
search, encouragement of in
terstate and regional coopera
tion on outdoor recreation
projects, conduct recreation
resource surveys and admin
istration of such state grant-in-aid
programs as may be
established by Congress.

4 FOND FATHER was hurrying up the pathway to greet
his 4-year-old daughter, busy playing at watering the
lawn. Without warning, she turned the hose on him, drench
ing him thoroughly. Her
alibi was inspired. "Oh,
Daddikins," she dimpled.
"I thought you were a
FLOWER!"

In a well-stocked clothes
closet, a moth and his mate
came upon a pair of woolen
spats and had a feast for
themselves. Later the moth .
flew about a bit to digest
his dinner and bumped into
a pal who caroled, "Hi boy!
How ya doin?" "Not so
hot." admitted the moth, "I
just had a spat with my
wife."
Two citizens of Athens were in Dublin one Sunday afternoon,
watching a game of hurling (the Hibernian equivalent of field
hockey and very, very rough). "I don't understand this game
at all," admitted one of the Greeks. "Neither do I," nodded the
other. "It's all Irish to me."

other fire burned almost one
acre. Fourteen of the fires
were caused by lightning.
Nine were man caused, forest
officials said.
