School Districts in
State Show Decline
Eugene - Total local gov
ernment units in Oregon have
decreased from 2,476 in 1941
to 1,421 in 1961, sparked by
the rapid progress of school
district, consolidation and re
organization, according to a
report issued by the Univer
sity of Oregon Bureau of Mu
nicipal Research and Service.
The number of active
school districts during the 20
year period has been reduced
from 2,015 to 520, the re
port shows.
But governmental organiza
tion in unincorporated urban
areas has become increasing
ly complex, and the number
of active special districts pro
viding urban-type services has
increased from 92 to 500.
"These units are largely lo
cated in urban and urbanizing
areas. Here, they frequent
ly overlap to form a veritable
crazy quilt of local jurisdic
tion and taxation," the re
port says.
drivers are the only ones who
receive the wrist watch for
five years of safe driving.
Wood crew drivers re
ceiving awards were Bob
Bishop, one - year; Claude
Johnson and Sid Jones, three
year; Thomas J. Short, four
year; George McLean, five
year, and William Nussbaum
and Wallace West, six year
awards.
Shop crew drivers receiving
medals were Richard Wilson,
one-year; Jack Schauble, four
year; Jim Hopkins, Ed Learn
ing, Robert Sanderson, Joe
Waltz and John L. Wilson,
six-year awards.
Safety captains for the per
iod of July 1, 1962 to June 30,
1963, are Lloyd Mynatt and
Kenneth Paulson. The cap
tains meet with Dean Wilson
and alternates of two drivers
for a three month period with
Stathos to discuss the need
and new ideas on safety for
the drivers.
Steve Wilson Logging is af
filiated with the National
Safety Council and has a good
record for log and lumber
truck drivers, Stathos noted.

Try and Stop Me
-By BENNETT CERF-
I'VE OFTEN been asked what contestant, of all the thou
sands I've encountered on the TV panel show, "What's
My Line?" I remember most clearly. Without any question,
it w?r a chap -who work
ed at one of New York's
summer recreation cen
ters. No sooner had we
guessed his occupation
and shaken hands with
him than he walked in
to the arms of six cops
who were waiting for
him in the wings.
It developed that the
l misguided lad was want
ed in six different states
for stealing automobiles.
The minute his face was
reproduced von the TV
screen, every police station in New York was alerted and
went into action!
Another contestant we "What's My Line" panelists will not
forget in a hurry waa a darling old lady who waa a "cow wash
er." Yes, she washed cows at a big dairy in New Jersey. We
missed her occupation by the proverbial mile.
What is worse, they brought her back to face us once more
three years later and we missed her all over again!
Allan King aaked a veteran judge, "How do you usually decide
a case?" The judge answered, "First, I read the facts of the
case. Then I listen to the plaintiff. Then I render my verdict"
"Don't you listen to the defendant, too?" demanded the aston
ished Mr. King. "Never," Insisted the Judge. "That would get ma
all mixed up."

for two very good reasons.
First, 501 nylon is the first ever engineered especially foi carpet use in one

broken, matted ends.
Second, Lees gives this modern man-made fiber the same respectful care
that's gone Into every yard of carpet they ever made. Same number of painstaking
inspections at every step of the way,
Lasting Star is not like other nylon carpets. Durable! Won't shedl Won't mat!
Resists stains and scuffs! And so easy to care for, you can go wild on color the
lightest, brightest, even white! Naturally lasting Star is mothproof, mildew-proof
and non-allergenic.
