Freeman says a record 10 bil lion board feet of timber was cut in the national forests dur ing fiscal 1963. Freeman said the timber har vested had a total value of $134.4 million. The harvest was one billion board feet over the preceding year, and 600 million board feet over the previous record harvest of 9.4 billion in 1960. The volume of timber sold in fiscal 1963 came to 12.2 billion board feet. This was 1.9 billion board feet over the 1962 sales. It indicated that in addition to the 1963 production, sales also included some timber on hand. "This record surpasses the goals we set for fiscal year 1963 to harvest 9.7 billion and sell 11.8 billion board feet of timber, for which Congress last year ap propriated funds," Freeman said. "Last year when I met with representatives of the West ern Timber industry, I assured them that high priority would be given to bringing timber sale offerings up to an acceptable level. I consider this an ac complished fact." Boy Hospitalized After Accident Monty Lynn Price, 13, of 4671 Table Rock rd., was hospital ized at Rogue Valley hospical Sunday afternoon suffering from a broken left arm following an automobile accident at the in tersection of Hamnck and Head rds. According to Oregon state po lice, Price was a passenger in a car operated by his father, Morton Elvyen PrL'e, 32, which was hit by a pumper owned by the Central Point" Rural Fire district. The fired truck, en route from the White City station to a tire on Old Mage rd. skidded as it turned from Hamrick rd. onto Head rd. hitting the east bound Price vehicle. Operator of the truck was Maynard Win fred Hadley, 32, of 587 Beall lane. The accident occurred about 1 p.m. Both vehicles were ex tensively damaged, according to officers. Rural firemen said that, so far as can be determined, some thing mechanically went wrong with the truck, causing the wheels to lock.
