Be tie Davis -Joan Crawford CO-FEATURE GLTHIS JOHNS 0H O'HEHUHr Waste Utilization i Obituaries Problems at Mills Studied by OSU Invited by reprsentatives of the Medford lumber industry, three officials of Oregon State university were guests in Medford on June 21 for a tour of sawmills of the area. This program is another step in the efforts of Medford i ill operators to solve the problems Deculiar to their area in wood waste ntiliza. tion and disposal. The many varieties of timber processed and the problems encounter ed make normal Drocedures used in other areas imprac tical for Medford. George E. Thornburgh. de partment of mechanical engi neering; Martin E. Northcraft, department of civil engineer ing, and Leif Espenas, Forest Products laboratory, attended a meeting where slides were shown and results explained of tests conducted by the uni versity's Engineering Experi rr station. After this meet ing the group made a tour of the area visiting several sawmills and looking over the varying conditions. Tour Made After lunch the tour was completed. It was generally recognized that special tech nical assistance would be necessary to combat problems of the area. The Medford mill operators agreed to make their plants available and sup port the project financially for a more comprehensive and complete study to be con ducted by technicians from Oregon State university, En gineering Experiment station and Forest Products labora tory. Although thousands of dol lars and considerable experi mental efforts have been ex pended by Medford area saw mill operators with a marked improvement in conditions, they recognize the need for still further improvements. It is believed the technical as sistance from Oregon State university engineering depart ment and Forest laboratory will offer additional Informa tion leading to the solution of the existing problems.

English Language Popular in Japan Br ISAO ZAMOTO Tokyo-flflH-With the Tokyo Olympics coming up in Octo ber, 1964, the Japanese peo ple are showing an ever Increasing interest in the English language. The current enthusiasm for English may be compared with that during the early years of the Allied occupation in Japan. In Tokyo, three television stations air English lessons for half an hour every morn ing and night from Monday through Friday. One radio station broadcasts 15-minute English lessons twice a day. Many books on English con versation have been pub lished one after another in the past two years. One, entitled "How To Be come Strong in English" hit a sale of more than a million copies in two years. Since then Grown-Ups English, "English Conversation in One Week," "New Guide to Eng lish Conversation," "You Can Speak English Tomorrow," 'English for the Olympic Games," have appeared. Daily Columni Tokyos three big news papers, the Malnlchi, Asahi and Yomiuri, publish daily columns explaining English conversation and phrases. The sports newspaper Hoochi Shimbun runs a col umn entitled "Sports English for the Olympic Games." Executives and housewives, as well as school students, at tend English conversation classes. Hotels,- department stores and the railways hold classes to help employees speak bet ter English. The National Railways cor poration distributed 9,000 pamphlets to conductors and trainmen. The pamphlets are entitled "Railway men's English." A spokesman for the Seibu department store said: "We hold English ' conversation classes twice a week. We are increasing our English-speaking sales staff In anticipation of foreign shoppers a year from now. Qivon Book A taxi company has given Its drivers a 50-page English conversation book. Ona of the leading newspapeii has opened a twice-weekly Eng lish conversation course for reporters covering the Olympics. Even geisha girlt are study ing English. Police also are learning English. The Metropolitan police board has opened a special course with the co operation of an English lan guage school. Counter-balancing all the enthusiasm Is the fact that it Is nearly as difficult for the Japanese to learn foreign lan guages as it is for foreigners to learn Japanese. One basic difficulty is that Japanese characters usually are used In the teaching of foreign languages, so that "Olympics," impeccably pro nounced by the book, comes out "Orymplcs."

That's the advice of Gilford R. Hart, author of "Retirement a New Outlook for the Individual." Now his observations on a long-range approach to retiring have been compiled in a new booklet "Plan ning Ahead For Retirement" which is yours for the Bsking from New York Life. According to Mr. Hart (who retired at a compara tively early age), the more planning you put into re- tirement, the more it will yield in return. ' WHY PLAN AHEAD? For one thing, it's important to be psychologically armed against possible "retirement shock." Though there seems to be no statistical truth in tales of physi cal deterioration or inevitable sudden death when a man retires, there are emotional factors to consider. J If you have thoughtfully mapped out when you can r', t.4 retire, where you and your wife would like to live, - :i I hnvi vnu can anenH vnnr newlv tnrnftrl IfMstire mrtxt j i j j profitably, you're almost sure to make mental ad justments with greater ease. And Mr. Hart's book let can help you do this. A NEW LIFE-EM0TI0NALLY, FINANCIALLY "For the lirst time in, years you're free (tee from tension, among other things, but also free from certain larger responsibilities and duties which, though they may have weighed heavily on you at times, did nevertheless help fill your days with a sense of accomplishment and purpose. This is something you may miss . . . this feeling of worthwhileless." Along with the need for feeling worthwhile, you'll also want the stability of economic security. Without prejudice, Mr. Hart reviews a number of ways that you can start saving now to supplement Social Secu rity and other minimal retirement income. Most of all, "forget the word 'retirement.' . . . Think of your emergence from business as graduation, or rebirth or escape: the long delayed chance to live your life as it should be lived ..." . . FIRSTHAND ADVICE-YOURS FREE Although each individual's case varies, there are basic steps that all men should be taking to assure a richer, fuller retirement,. And so OirTord Hart's program is of universal interest to younger and older people alike. For your free copy of this informative booklet, send the coupon, or ask your New York Life Agent.
