Regional Roundup by Cleve TwikheH Matt Tribune Regional Editor ' A couple of pieces of mail arrived on the regional ' editor's deik Saturday. They came all the way from Central Point in the near-record time of eight days. The arrival of the two envelopes, both from Mary Colley, our Central Point correspondent, solved some thing of a mystery. In the course of a telephone conver sation last Wednesday, Mary mentioned something about how unfortunate It was that a certain Lions club story had'nt been In the paper yet. "What Lions club story?" we remarked. ' As further details of the situation were revealed, it became evident that four or five stories, including one about the Crater High school graduation, hadn't put in an appearance on the regional desk. Fortunately, Mary ; had made carbons of the stories, and so almost all of them had actually appeared in the paper by the time the originals showed up Saturday. While we were looking over the envelopes for a clue as to what had happened, an alert colleague noted an in nocent looking postmark on the back of one of them. . It read, "New York, N. Y., June 11, 1063, 3 a.m." Well, at least In this instance, the post office depart ment can't be accused of sending mail from Central Point to Medford by mule train. It quite possibly went by air - with a slight detour to New York along the way. , From the Correspondents - , Velda Barr, Prospect correspondent, is back from a trip to Adel in the Warner valley east of Lakeview. She and her husband Warren brought back his father John Barr, who will make his home with them at Pros ' pect.

Katherine Scott, Illinois Valley correspondent, back from a fishing trip to Bolan lake, saw many patches of snow still in the high mountains but noted that they were melting fast. The view from the top of Happy , Camp and Page Mountain roads is beautiful, she said. Alice Burnette', Talent correspondent, sent In a routine item about a family moving, but added this little twist; Don Kane, who with his three sons moved from Foss rd. In Talent to the Evans Valley area, is a widower. After all his furniture was moved he came back and scrubbed the house and waxed and polished the floors. "How many people leave a rented home spotless and polished when they move out?" Alice remarked.
