Engineers Beard Kelly's Tuesday evening at six p.m. the Engineers renew last year’s bitter rivalry with Kelly's Lumber company softball team. Although the Engineers have won only one game out of three with league teams this season, they will be starting the coming game on even terms with Kelly's •Greens. It has been nece ary to find Engi- neer replacements for last year’s “Speed-ball” Roberts, and second Also, last baseman Gayle Lowery, season’s errorless first baseman Big Bill hiourse, won't be playing this year and it has been difficult trying to find a first sacker to fill his shoes. In spite of these troubles, the Engi neers still have the same spirit which brings them up to Kelly’s quality level. Last week the Engineers downed the Firemen for their first win. The old familiar names for both sides can be seen below: h AB CBI Engineers—(7) 1 3 Sim beni, c ..._............... o 3 Enlow, If 0 0 Robison, If 2 4 Knowles, M, cf . 0 3 Lents, ss 0 1 Bayless, 3b 0 1 Nicholas, 2b 0 3 Yarnell, lb 1 3 Kelly, rf 0 3 Ferguson, p Monday, June 4—Chuck’s Tavern vs. Firemen.

Teen Talk by the Kanyon Kids By GARY PETERSON Well, dear reader (get that, "dear”!), school is now out for sum mer vacation, and the time has come when the dormant minds of the teen agers are now free from all nagging (teachers and parents), and can now relax for the summer—at least that's the idea. Summer does not bring on total relaxation, however, for the teeners usually get jobs or are rooked into extensive labors around the home. Lee Kelly was the hostess and Gary Peterson did the honors as host at the firehall meeting of the Teen Can teen last Saturday night. A move is afoot to channel some of the club’s activities into outdoor recreation, such as picnics, swimming parties, hikes, and similar activities. If possible, a meeting to mull over plans of this type will be held this Saturday night, and teenagers with ideas on that sub ject should come out for the evening.

Denny and Bob had a successful trip from the viewpoint of fish caught, but the girls, trying to cook breakfast, did not. Get me, I don’t mean the food wasn’t good, but the average of pancakes cooked and eaten was very low. Let that suffice. Monday wa« another picnic day, as I the student body of MCHS partici pated in a feast at the North Fork. The water was very cold, as some eistwhile swimmers found out. Del- nter Skillings was the bravest of these, swimming across the pool Chuck Faylor and Sam Engle twice, the second time unwillingly, Owners but only to get back to a semblance of warmth. After the picnic lunch several carloads went to Breitenbush for a swim in the less frigid waters there, while hardier souls stuck to the North Fork, spending the time riding in Bill Gorman's rubber boat.

Kristine doesn’t say that her lipstick is kiss-proof, but Reed knows that the sensational new liquid auto wax, Car-Plate, he has just applied will give his car a tough, weather-proof coating. He mdnt even bother to remove his cream-colored jacket for the aimost-eiioit- less, no-rubbing, 20-minute wax job. And it took him only a few mm- utes longer to wax his entire car than it took Kristine to put on her make-up.

All of this food consumption by horse and man went on in the camps of the Canadian International Paper Company, up there in the other half of i our North American forests. Many more fascinating facts and figures are revealed in a handsome booklet “A New Era in Forest Man- agement", the author Vernon E. Johnson, vice president and general manager of the company. Canada has around 800 million acres of forests. Something like 300 million acres are now classified, says Mr. Johnson, ‘as economically, geo graphically and financially accessible.” accompany him back to Fort Bliss Texas, where he has been stationed since the first of the year.

That much acreage would take in both Texas and South Dakota. In the last ten years says Mr. Johnson, the budworm has taken 12 billion cubic feet of wood out of Canadian forests. The spruce sawfly in the same ten-year period has des troyed a billion cubic feet of timber in 150,000 square miles—about the area of California. The birch die back, still a creature of mystery to the timber bug experts, has infected a possible 300 thousond square miles of prime birch woodlands. A forest er’s battlefield. The Quebec town of Maniwaki is cited as an example of international's five paper production centers. It has more than 5,000 population which depends almost entirely on timber to live. About 7,000 square miles of timberland are tributary to Maniwaki. Lumbering has been going on there for a century. And the present plan of forest management is for perman ence.

Graft and ac cusations of graft reveal a definite link between organized crime and corrupt politicians. The law’s in vestigators, needless to say, had to get their information somewhere. The hoodlums who “talked'' are doing the sweating right now along with uneasy city officials. The underworld exacts a terrible penalty and we all know of at least one gangland reprisal.
