Already, although Hoodoo hai
been In operation only two yeara,
the forcal service lini plant to
duplicate It In other parta of the
United State.
No Connotation
Veteran skiers call Hoodoo
the no mo hot no omlnotii conno
tation one of America's best
natural bowli. Cupped In the
summit of Oregon'! Cascade
mountains. 4800 feet above sea
level on the Santlum highway
Unking Bend and the Willamette
valley, It hut a four-month aea
on. from December through
March.
Hoodoo wii conceived by J. R.
Drurkart, Willamette national
forest aupervlaor, and Hangar
Bud Burgos aa a glorified com
munity pluyground. Tho United
States forcat service, which auth
orized the construction, carried
ut the plan.
Adults as well as youths from
towns and furms more than 100
mllei away flock to Hoodoo de
spite attractive snowy slopes
right next door.
Why? Because even a thin
pocketbook will yield enough
coppers for a weekend at Hoo
doo. This Is how It works:
Hoodoo lodge Is required to
furnish dormitory bunks, with
mattreaset, (or SO cents a night to
skiers bringing their own bed
ding. Youth groupa, youngatera
under IS years of age who come
In chaperoned parties and bring
their own blankets, are given
bunks for IS cents each.
Breakfast 40 Cents
The lodge has a limited num
ber of bunks requiring no addi
tional bedding available for a
dollar a night the top price.
, In the lodge dining room, j
hYeakfaats range upward to a :
maximum of 40 cents. Lunches
and dinners coat from 20 to 63
cents.
Youth groupa making advance
reaervatlons are fed and lodged
for one dollar a day per Indivi
dual and adults who stay by the
week receive a flat rate of ten
dollars.
Hoodoo lodge, a massive log
stockade structure finished In
side with rough lumber, cost the
forest service only $2300 for ma
terials. Civilian conservation
corps labor erected It and built
furniture.
In the lodge are basement
dormitories (or men and women,
a large dining and living room,
quarters (or the forest ranger
and akl patrol.
Waxing Room
A separate building, attached
to the lodge by a covered passage
way, provides overflow space for
additional bunks or dining, as
needed. In It youngsters are in
vited to play the Juke box and
t any time.
Still a third building houses
ski waxing room stovc-hcated
for easy spreading of wax and
equipped with work benchos and
vices (or ski repairs.
Three-fourths of a mllo away
long the backbone of the Cas
cades Is tho bowl, reached by an
old car rigged with endless
tracks to combat fresh snow, or
by another car towing a bobsled
after the snow la packed.
The car service costs 40 cents
round trip and gets little play
from the boys and girls, who
would rather ski to the bowl and
spend their money on tows.

The younger generation in ten
nis are too intent on the spec
tacular and too careless of the
fundamentals. So said Big BUI
Tilden, one of the games most
spectacular (In his day and even
yet) and at the same time one of
thc most orthodox of courtmen.
Tilden played a couple of
sets with Don Budge In Portland
last weekend. His legs are gone
and his rifle-ball service Is
memory, but when he gets up
to the net you see flashes of the
old tlckery.
"Trouble with America's
young players," said Tilden be
fore going out for his evening
licking, "is their yen to pull fan
cy strokes and shots before
learning fundamental tennis.
Sabln Is an example. He never
achieved a sound basic game by
endless practice. He's flashy,
but a great player like Budge
would slaughter him.
"A lot of the kids lack tem
per. I've no use for a young
ster who won't get mad. Not
mad at himself mad at his op
ponent. You can't fight your
self in this game. But It pays
to get mad at thc guy across the
court. More often than not
you'll beat him.
"Will I get sore at Budge to
night? Say I think it was at
Memphis I quit getting mad at
Donald. It's just 20 years too
late."
