Oregon Educator
(Continued from Page 1)
In 1910 after teaching eight
months at Cecil for $90 a
month, he accepted the posi
tion of rural school super
visor in Douglas county.
There were 55 schools in
cluded in his area and he cov
ered them by foot, horseback
and boat.
He always recalled the pe
riod as "a wonderful experi
ence in growing up." The
growing up made him real
ize his need for more educa
tion and he entered the Uni
versity of Oregon in 1914.
His early enthusiasm for
law became subordinated by
his growing interest in edu
cation and after two years
at the university he took a
leave and returned to Mon
mouth for two reasons. He
wanted to obtain an elemen
tary school certificate and to
study under J. H. Ackerman
and Thomas H. Gentle, who
had brought some theories in
German education into Ore
gon. Receives Degree
In 1916 he received his
Bachelor of Arts degree from
the University of Oregon and
returned to the teaching field
as principal of Monmouth
High school. He left Mon
mouth to enter the Army for
service in World War I. Hon
orably discharged in 1919 he
moved to Central Point, his
first Jackson county assign
ment. He was superintendent of
the Central Point schools for
three years. Accepting a cut
in salary, he went to Hcpp
ner in the fall of 1922, feel
' ing that he should widen his
'experience before settling
i down to one system for more
-than three years. Those were
years, he often remarked,
' when a superintendent had to
be "on his toes" and that of
ten involved moving. In 1932
he married Helen Norcross,
: a Central Point girl.
He attended 10 summer ses-

sions at the University of Ore
gon but made no effort to ob
tain a higher degree as there
was at that time no premium
placed on degrees.
Moves to Medford
In 1929, however, he re
ceived his master"s degree
from the university, four
years after coming to Med
ford to replace Aubrey Smith
as superintendent of schools.
In the field of professional
activities, he served for a
number of years on the board
of trustees of the Oregon Ed
ucation association and was
on the Oregon Textbook com
mission from 1932 to 1940.
In 1937 he was one of two
Oregon educators invited to
make a survey of the Sacra
mento, Calif., schools.
He was president of the
Oregon Superintendents asso
ciation in 1940, but through
out the years of his superin
tendency made his influence
felt for the most part with
out holding office.
Following his retirement
from the schools in 1955 he
was busy in his avocation, the
building game, until illness
forced his complete retire
ment. Survivors Noted
Surviving are his wife,
Helen Hedrick, three daugh
ters and a son, Mrs. Sam
Richardson, of Medford; Mrs.
Robert Work and Mrs. Floyd
Norton, both of Eagle Point,
and William Hedrick of Win
ston. Mr. and Mrs. Work, Nor
ton and William Hedrick are
all members of the teaching
profession.
Also surviving are a broth
er, Ray N. Hedrick, of Drain,
and a sister, Mrs. E. S. Rick
ard of Sacramento.
Funeral services, under the
direction of Perl Funeral
home, will be held in the
First Presbyterian church at
10 a.m. Wednesday with Dr.
D. Kirkland West officiating.
Proxmire Says History
Disproves Theorists
Washington - IUPU - Sen.
William Proxmire (D-Wis.)
said today that history dis
proved the theorists who ar
gue that large federal deficits
contribute to economic
growth.
"From 1957 to date," Prox
mire said in a statement, "fed
eral deficits have averaged a
heavy $6 billion per year.
And yet, economic growth has
been a slow-moving despair of
current economists during
this very period."

Every businessman knows the law of averages in selling: The mora contacts,
the more sales. With a judicious use of local and long distance calling, you
multiply these sales contacts. By opening doors first by phone, you save wait
ing time, reduce travel expenses, extend your sales reach. Even before you start,
your voice and personality add persuasion to your sales message. Long distance
is one way to increase profits through good communications. Let our Com
