Trail - Two of the most re.
cent residents to locate in the
Trail creek area are brothers,
Steve and Joseph Zamaria
members of a well-known
Ohio family distinguished for
its war service record.
Both are veterans of World
War II, and are now retired
from the Navy.
Pending construction of
their home, they are staying
with another retired Navy
man, George Barney, who also
was a shipmate and friend of
Joe. Their proporety is about
1V4 miles northwest of Trail
along Highway 227.
Steve said there were seV'
eral considerations that Influ
enced their decision to
select the spot they did. Prin
cipally, however, they want
ed to get away from the smog,
general confusion and traffic
congestion of big city living.
After a full career of service
travel and excitement, both
aiirced they couldn't have
chosen a more peaceful and
- tranquil site.
Survived Attack
Numbered among the ser
vicemen who survived the
Japanese attack on Pearl Har
bor, Dec. 7, 1941, Steve was
serving aboard the USS Vega,
cargo ship at the time.
Steve also was a member
of the task force that took
Atlu Island in the Aleutians
back from the Japanese. The
Vega was later converted to
a torpedo-net-laying ship, and
strung nets at Attu and in the
Marshall Islands.
In 1947, Steve left the Navy
and joined the Army Air
Force, spending most of his
time as the skipper of an 86
foot crash boat in the waters
around Guam. But in 1930
Steve was back In the Navy,
and helped in the recommis

town, Ohio, where he retired
in 1962.
Joe made many sub war pa
trols while his ships were at
tached to the Pacific Seventh
Fleet, but he says that one of
the most memorable was when
his sub, the USS Barb, was
ordered to proceed to the
China Coast, investigate the
harbor at Namkwan, and des
troy any Japanese ships pres
ent. Slip Into Harbor
Slipping into the harbor it
self, under cover of darkness,
they found an assortment of
30 fighting and merchant
ships anchored and moored.
They were so congregated as
to make a torpedo miss al
most impossible. The Barb
fired 10 torpedoes, and every
missie registered a hit.
Steve and Joe come from
a family of 13, and the Plain
Dealer, a Cleveland, Ohio,
newspaper, described it as a
family "where patriotism was
contagious."
Their Armed Forces partici
pation record reads almost
like the story of a one-family
effort, to single-handedly win
world War II. Mrs. Zamaria
was the outstanding Blue-Star
Mother of the state of Ohio,
for at one time there were
seven members of her family

time or another in all parts

75 Cases of Major
Criminal Offenses
Reported in City
There were only 75 cases
of major criminal offenses in
Medford during June, ac
cording to the monthly po
lice report recently released
by Chief Charles P. Champ
lin. The figure represents a de
crease of 36 over the 111 re
ported during June, 1962, the
report showed. Of the 75 re
ported last month, 26 were
closed for a 34.7 average.
Thefts of items with a
value of less than $50 exceed
ed all other violations. Next
highest category of viola
tions was burglaries; 14
were investigated by police
during June.
No Violent Crimes
No crimes of violence
against the person were re
ported in the city last month.
There were 12 cases of thefts
of items with a value of more
than $50.
A total of 45 cases of em
bezzlement and fraud, most
ly matters involving bad
checks, were investigated,
and of that number about 22
were closed.
The report stated there
were 62 cases of drunken
ness in the city last month,
and 15 instances of disorder
ly conduct. ,
Officers issued 196 cita
tions last month for violation
of road and driving laws, and
3,534 parking tickets were
issued.
Seventy motor vehicle ac
cidents occurred In Medford
during June, and 29 persons
reported injuries. There were
no fatalities.
Other Attributes Besides
Speed Grace Greyhounds
The silly thing doesn't even
look much like a rabbit, but
that- is what it is called. It
travels on a track and is run
by electricity. Its speed is ad
justed just fast enough to al
ways stay a sale distance
ahead of the fastest grey
hound that is chasing it.
It has always been a de
batable question whether the
eager dogs that chase this me
chanical rabbit are really
fooled Into thinking it is
alive or, more likely, the dog
chases it just for fun. Prob
ably they know they are
being fooled but they enjoy
the game-that is the nature
of the greyhound. Whatever
the reason, trained grey
hounds furnish sport for those
folks interested in finding out
which dog can run faster than
some other dog.
Intelligent Animal
The word greyhound and
speed are synonymous. Mere
ly the appearance of this ani
mal is suggestive of rapid mo
tion, and the dog is built for
it. He is also a very intelli
gent animal and has a nat
ural, inborn facility not
brought into play in grey
hound racing. This is no dis
credit to him, but simply
shows his eagerness, obedi
ence and adaptability.
Unlike the true hound, as
well as many other dogs
whose nose serves as a guide,
the greyhound depends on his
keen eyesight. This is the rea
son, aside from his natural
tractability, why this breed
of dog so willingly chases the
mechanical rabbit around the
track. The dog sees the rabbit
and follows him by sight.
The greyhound proved,
thousands of years ago, it was
the proper companion to the
man who desired game to cat.
The animal could see the
game, even a creature as
small as a hare, from a con
siderable distance and he had
the speed necessary to run it
down.
Loyalty, Ariitocraiic
The ancient Egyptians from
as far back as 3,500 years ap
preciated the loyalty and aris
tocratic bearing of the grey
hound. On the walls of an
cient temples of that time
were painted pictures of hunt
ing dogs that closely resemble
today's greyhounds, indicat
ing this breed of dog wag a
favorite with those people.
About 1,000 years ago,
greyhounds were used as
hunting dogs in England in
the capture of deer, hares and
other game which would run
instead of hide. An ancient

Requests Listed in
Recommendations
Adopted by Group
Requests to be made to the
three airlines serving Med
ford are listed in the recom
mendations recently adopted
by the aviation committee of
the Medford Chamber of
Commerce which conducted
an investigation of air serv
ice in this area.
The first finding of the
committee was that frequen
cy of service is the major
problem. There would be suf
ficient seats available in air
service in and out of Medford
if the schedules were proper
ly spaced to accommodate
public need, the committee
reported.
Fares are first class and
the service is tourist class,
the committee complained.
Members further contended
that schedules are established
without an attempt to satisfy
local needs with the times
changed from month to
month, year after year.
Seek Round-Trip
Pacific Airlines, as a result
of the study, will be asked
to give no less than one
round-trip per day from San
Francisco to Medford via the
valley route and no less than
one round-trip per day via the
coast route. Equipment, the
committee directive states
should be at least as good
as that used to serve southern
California cities.
West Coast Airlines is ask
ed to continue the good serv
ice offered to intermediate
cities between Medford and
Portland. It is advised not to
become a trunk carrier unless
Small Worlds
Around Us
By LYNN M. WATKINS
(Register end Tribune
Syndic.!. ".9631
Creek scholar, who lived be
fore the birth of Christ, wrote
glowingly of the intelligence
and speed of the dog with the
aristocratic bearing, which
certainly meant the grey
hound. Even today's student of dog
breeding and canine ancestry
is not too sure where this dog
got its name. Probably grey
was the prevaUing color of
this breed but there are indi
cations of other reasons which
raise a debatable question.
The Greek word "graius"
could be credited to Ovid who
so accurately described the
greyhound. Also there was an
English word "greg," mean
ing dog, that may have
evolved to sound like grey
then the word "hound"
added to it.
The reason for the name is
not important. It is enough to
know that the greyhound who
willingly chases a false rabbit
is not so dumb. He is smart
enough to enjoy performing
for a grandstand full of peo
ple. ,
Stock Purchase Is
Made by Employees
Purchases of the outstand
ing capital stock of First Cali
fornia Company by a group
of employees under a plan of
acquisition which will even
tually enable every employee
to own shares in the company,
has been reported here.
The purchase price was not
disclosed.
The stock is that which was
acquired June 18 by Olm
stead, Allen and company, a
Los Angeles investment firm.
John F. Egan, president of
First California company, in
jointly announcing the agree
ment with Olmstcad, Allen
and company, said, "The ac
quisition of First California
company by its employees is
an event we have eagerly
looked forward to for many
years."

the established trunk carrier
is unable or unwilling to pro
vide service consistent with
public needs.
United Airlines will be
urged to "pay attention to lo
cal needs." Its sales represen
tatives should become increas
ingly familiar with local
needs by meeting wiiU the
chamber of commerce com
mittee and attempting to un
derstand the committee's re
quests, the chamber of com
merce group stated.
The committee asked that
the board of directors of the
chamber of commerce make
it clear to United Airlines
that these things should be
done if continued good will
support is to be forthcoming.
tu . e, committee suggested
that West Coast Airlines be
thanked for its service ef
forts. Ask for Authorisation
The aviation committee ask
ed that the board of directors
of the chamber of commerce
authorize letters to be writ
ten to the Civil Aeronautics
board, Oregon state board of
aeronautics, Public Utilities
commissioner for Oregon
U.S. senators and representa
tives, presenting the findings
of the committee.
The committee concluded
the report with a decision to
review the investigation from
time to time and to make a
report with recommendations
to the board of directors ev
ery six months.
The committee also askort
the chamber of
board to send letters tn he
airlines representatives who
made themselves available for
the conference, thanking them
tor their cooperation.
