OREGON WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 25, 1983 Dinner Will Climax Christmas Observance at VA Domiciliary WHITE CITY-Three months preparation for the Holiday Sea son at the Veterans Adminis tration Domiciliary here will be climaxed by the "big family" dinner today. New Director James A. Hur snn greeted the members and staff with a Christmas message printed on the annual menu a gift from the American Le gion, Department of Oregon, saying, in part: "I would hope that as we cele brate Christmas we keep close ly in mind the true meaning of this great day. For on this day we pay homage to the Nativity of our Savior. The greatness of His philosophy and teachings shine as a beacon light of truth and knowledge to everyone on earth who will ac cept them. Therein lies the hope of worldly peace in our time . . . In that spirit, all of the staff personnel and volunteers of this Domiciliary join with me in extending to all members, and their loved ones, our warmest personal wishes for great hap piness throughout the year. May the New Year bring improved health and much contentment to you, and see a peaceful set tlement of all international dif ferences." Nor was the Christmas con fined to the Domiciliary. For three months, members of the Manual Aits Therapy depart ment have been busy making gifts for the needy children in Southern Oregon. With the cooperation of the Jackson County Welfare Depart ment gifts and toys from the woodworkers, leatherwor k e r s and textile experts were dis tributed to needy children. The results of this work, ac cording to Lee Brown, chief therapist, drew many requests from members to join in future projects. Distributed gifts in cluded stocking caps, place mats, scarfs, stoles and hot pad holders from the weavers and knitters. Wheelbarrows, wagons, wooden tricycles, rocker ducks, small "jeeps" and numerous other small gear and wooden toys came from the wood workers. AMWhmy.mheirt. MERRY XMASf Winning HEW adventures!

Entered was Tom's Union Sta tion, 1601 W. Main St. Nothing was reported taken, and officers believe that the burglar was frightened off before anything could be taken. Shortly "after 2:30 o'clock this morning when the entry was re ported, police impounded an au tomobile which had been left in the middle of South Columbus Avenue. The vehicle had ex pired Manitoba, Canada license plates. The second entry was report ed shortly before 5 o'clock this morning at Hammil Laundro mat, 827 West Jackson St., where approximately $10 in coins was taken from a vending machine. That machine and an other were extensively damaged, police said. Man in Jesus' Time Had Fewer Chances To Learn Occupation Minor Accidents Reported in Area State police this morning re ported a scries of minor acci dents yesterday. A car driven by Alfred Eu gene Hackworth, 28, Gold Hill, and a car driven by Samuel Nelson, 41, Gold Hill, were in volral in an accident on Table Rock road at Bybce bridge. Ralph Fuget, 15, of 914 Lo- zier Lane, rode his bicycle out of a private driveway in front of a car driven by Donald Lee Pursel, 30, ot 1275 orchard Home Drive, yesterday after noon on Lozier Lane, police re ported.

Cars driven by Roberta Jeanne Warnoc, 22, of 2009 Orchard Home Drive, and Dou glas Kent Smith, 16, of 839 E. Main St., Medford, collided on Orchard Home Drive at Orch ard Home Court yesterday afternoon. By DKLOS SMITH VPl Science Editor NEW YORK (UPD-The sci entific way of contrasting the world as it is now and what it was like when Jesus was born would have to be a statistical way. Being a scientist, Dr. Carey P. McCord took that way. He had been astonished by the number of trades, professions and occu pations available to people liv ing in this year 1963 A.D. A recent statistical compila tion showed they totalled more than 50,000. The children who will be born on this day of Jesus' birthday will have thai many to choose among, and probably there will be many thousands more by the time they grow up. McCord got to wondering. The young Jesus learned the carpen ter's trade. If he had wished to leer organizations ot Southern Oregon and Northern California delivered individual Christmas packages to each Domiciliary member on the wards. Mem bers of the Ashland band enter tained and later entertained on the wards. Sunday afternoon, the Apo stolic church of Medford pre sented a. choir and orchestra program ot Christmas music and songs to an audience of disabled veterans' in the domi ciliary theater. And the Veterans of Foreign Wars Auxiliary distributed bas kets of food to each member at his bedside. Appointment Set By Engineer Corps PORTLAND (UPD- The ap pointment of Rudolf C. Arnold, 33, lo be chief of special inves tigations in the engineering di vision of the Portland U. S. Army Engineer District has been announced by Col. Sterling K. Eisimingcr, Portland District Engineer. Arnold (ills a vacancy left by the retirement of George G. West. Col. Eisimingcr said Arnold will work in the project plan ning branch and will concern himself with the flood plan in formation study now under way in the Lane County portion of the Willamette River Basin. He also will represent the Corps of Engineers on the State Mapping Advisory Committee. Stock Exchange Passes Record NEW YORK (UPD - Total trading on the New York Stock Exchange thus far in 1963 has passed the all-time record for a single year. Tuesday, at 18 minutes after noon (btT), the sale of 200 shares of Control Data Corp. slock brought the year-to-date total to 1,124,800.475. The old record was 1,124,800,410 shares for the entire year of 1929. Average daily reported vol ume this year has been about 4.6 million shares, according to the exchange. The old record, also set in 1929, was 4.3 million. Reported volume is the total number of transactions carried on the stock ticker. It does not include odd lot sales and s small number of other transac tions not carried on the tape. choose or if he had been able to choose how many trades, professions or occupations were there to chooso among'.' That was McCord's question. He combed the New Testa ment and the various concord ances of holy writ which have been made over the centuries. The results were disappointing. "Although that portion of the Bible centers about the common people of the land, its sharp focus as to trades and profes sions more often is with refer ences to public officials, civil servants, military personnel and ecclesiastics," he said. "There are a few references to precise trades such as the carpenter, the fisherman, the tent maker and the tax collec tor, but more often only by im plication docs the New Testa ment indicate trades. For exam ple, wines and wine presses are mentioned. From that it may be concluded that there were wine makers.

Flynn, Route 2, Box 5760, Central Point. nagc driver, lamplighter, and querner (he was the turner of the mill). But many have diminished in importance. Stableman is one. Also bow maker, hermit, locust collector, and oracle. ' Some have taken different names but remain basically the same. A chariot driver is not fundamentally dissimilar to a car driver, and a chariot maker is the equivalent of automobile maker. McCord reminded the chariot maker in Jesus' time represent ed only one trade. "At the pres ent lime," he said, "there are no fewer than 500 job classifications associated with automobile man ufacture." McCord works in the Univer sity of Michigan's Institute of Industrial Health, Ann Arbor. He reported his compilation to the Technical Journal, "Indus trial Medicine and Surgery." held at 10 a.m. Jan. 7. Tipsy Bank Robber Joins In Spirit SAN FRANCISCO (UPI)-A slightly tipsy bank robber de cided Tuesday that it is better; to give than to receive. Steve Hall, a clerk at the Bank of California's downtown installment loan payment office, said that a man entered the back of the office, pretended he had a gun in his pockci. and de manded that Hall empty his cash drawer. Hall gave him about $250. The bandit, about to leave the bank, suddenly turned and handed Hall back the money and showed him that he had no ' gun in his pocket at all. Then he fled. !
