row at the Rcsmorc motel for
the South Talent Sanitary dis
trict budget election.
A proposed tax levy of
$2,510 will be submitted to

includes only operating ex
penses, since construction of
newer system itself is not
anticipated until next year.
The Rcsmorc motel is lo
cated about half a mile south

The fact a community split
by controversy can unite be
hind a common cause in time
of need was demonstrated to
Mr. and Mrs. Charles Capello
of Butte Falls last week. The
family home burned Wednes
day night while no one was
home, and most of the house
and the family's belongings
were lost.
But as news of the loss
spread, persons from both
sides involved in the contro
versy came to their aid, Mrs.
Capello told us, visibly im
pressed by what had happen
ed. Some townspeople took
their son John, who had cut
his hands in the mishap, to a
hospital. Others measured the
family for clothes and pro
ceeded to make new garments.
Various organizations and in
dividuals in the community
donated materials, food and
money.
News Item: Charles Roberts,
Talent police chief, advises
that there is now an ordinance
in effi in that city which re.
quires that rabbits must be
kept at least 100 feet away
from a dwelling.
The community of Prospect
extends its sympathy to the
family of Eldon (Stub) Bean,
who passed away last week.
Bean was the local square
dance caller, among many
other things.
Pnllaj and Peggy Purcell of
the Traunesian sanctuary in
vite their friends and anyone
else interested to join them
for tluir annual Fourth of
July picnic Thursday. It's a
potluck type of meal, with
lunch starting at about noon,
but visitors are encouraged to
come early and stay late.
A while back the Jackson
ville City Council talked
over a proposed ordinance
against riding bicycles on
sidewalks in the city. The
councilmcn didn't pass it. But
now some research has estab
lished that such an ordinance
was on the books all along.
It was enacted In 1951. Frank
Carter, police chief in Jack
sonville, will start enforcing
the "new" law this week.

SCENIC AREA The road between Prospect

recently. The lake is located about 10
miles from Prospect.

Happy Camp - Josephine
Plywood corporation of Hap
py Camp has been shut down
since May 8 in order to in
stall new machinery and to
rlMn the loe Dond, accord-
ins in Victor Dusenberry,
mill manager. Plans are for
the mill to start up snoruy,
nrnbablv about July 8.
A new block-lif has been
installed to bring blocks up
from the pond to a new diock
barker which is some of the
latest equipment available
and operates automatically.
The new lathe charger, also
installed, picks up blocks au
tomatically with instant pick
up putting the block into the
lathe and back into position
for the next block. All this
equipment works at a very
fast speed, Dusenberry said.
The new machinery should
increase production, at the
same time reduce the cost of
manufacturing to keep up
with other building materials
on the market, Dusenberry
said. It also is a safety meas
ure to keep two men from
working in a dangerous spot.
The automatic equipment will
not mean that these two men
will be laid off, however,
They will be given work else
where in the mill, ne said.
The average out at the mill
per shift is estimated at 50
thousand board feet of log.s,
and with the new machinery
it is hoped that production
will increase to 65 or 70 thou
sand board feet per shift.
During the shut-down, the
9'2-acre pond was drained for
the first time in nine years
to recover "sinkers" and to
deepen the area where logs
are dumped. The logs are
banded together on the trucks
and are dumped still banded
together into the pond so as
to make it possible to store
more logs at one time.
According to Dusenberry,
there are more logs under
the water than there are visi
ble on top of the water. The
average depth of the pond is
10 feet in most places and
much deeper where the logs
are dumped.
The mill now hires 29 men
in a single shift. A second
shift may be put on after the
equipment is running smooth
ly and when more timber is
bought, Dusenberry said.
Two Timber Sales
At present the mill has two
timber sales, one at Camp
Four in the Ukonom Ranger
district near Somes Bar, and
a second sale near Ferry Point
in the Happy Camp district.
Logging for the mill is the
V & K Logging company,
which has been with the mill
since its beginning here. The
logging company is owned by
George Vinson and W. ff.
"Tiny" Simmons, both of Hap
py Camp.
The mill first started up
here in August 1954 under
the name of Willamette Ply
wood with headquarters in
Aumsville, Oregon. The mill
was sold to Josephine Ply
wood which has its main proc
essing plant and headquarters
at Grants Pass, Oregon. The
green veneer is trucked daily
from here to Grants Pass
where it is processed into
plywood.
