PAGE EIGHT THE NEWS AND THE HERALD. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON July 21, 1041 9 LAST MINUTE RUSH BOOSTS STOCK PRICES NEW YORK. July 21, (AP) A last minute buying rush for rails and steels today put driv ing force behind the stock market aui favorites bounded up to 1 to more than 3 points, many at the highest marks for 1941. . Advances were well distrib uted throughout the session in more active dealings than re cently. The pace attained speed In the final 15 minutes or so and transfers were around 900,000, shares compared with 420.000 last Friday. The ability of the rail aver age to break through the re sistance area from which it had frequently been turned back in the four successive weekly ad vances of the list as a whole brought strong bidding from the chartists who had been waiting for . this "confirma tion." Stocks in new high ground for the year included Santa Fe, Southern Railway, Atlantic Coast Line, Western Union, Goodrich, International Har vester, Standard Oil (NJ).

Snell May Seek Governorship in Next Election . PORTLAND, July 21 VP) Secretary of State Earl Snell will seek a more important elec tive position next year, probably the governorship, the Oregon- ian, Portland daiiy newspaper, said Sunday. Snell, a republican, would seek a congressional seat if either Senator McNary or Rep resentative Pierce of the second district would retire, but both have indicated they will run again, the newspaper said, pre dicting that Snell would an nounce his candidacy for gov ernor in September. Governor Sprague intends to run again, and probably will be supported by the state repub lican committee, the paper said. Oregon Pioneer Woman Passes PORTLAND, July 21 VP) Mrs. Mary L. Miller. 87, daugh ter of pioneer parents, died at her home here yesterday. Her father, John Kelly, en tered Oregon in 1849 with Col onel Loring's mounted rifles, the first military company to arrive in the state by the overland route. Her mother arrived in Oregon in 1852. Born In Roseburg, she was married to Henry B. Miller, who later was president of Oregon State college for one term, and was in the U. S. consular ser vice from 1901 to 1911. I BARGAIN SALES FOR 1842 AUTOS Br DAVID J. WILKIE Associated Press Automotive Editor DETROIT. July 21 (?) The merchandising division of the motorcar industry soon will be in the annual "cleanup" period the weeks between tho com pletion of one model run and the beginning of another. Con trasting with like periods over most of the last decade, how ever, the retailers will have few cars to clear out as tho factories prepare to deliver the 1942 models. Certainly there will be no "bargain sales" of superceded models. The industry, according to au thoritative sources, will wind up its current model year with a smaller stock of new cars In dealers' hands than at any year end since 1934 cars were intro duced. Six months ago dealers were concerned at the heaviest field stocks they had piled up in considerably more than a de cade. Sales, however, have been running consistently ahead of factory output since early In March and indications are that consumer demand will be in ex cess of factory deliveries well into the new year that is to see car production subordinated to defense requirements. Speculation i n automotive trade quarters appears to favor the belief that there will be more buyers than cars during the in itial months of the new model year despite the car sales man agers' own admission that a part of this year's huge retail volume was borrowed from next year's normal market. There is considerable appre hension among union leaders and in trade quarters over prob able widespread temporary un employment in the automotive industry with the production curtailment in effect before the new defense factories begin to call for large forces of men. This apprehension has been enhanced by recent indications that the already .announced 20 per cent curtailment for the new model year may be stepped up to as much as 50 per cent. ' Fears of etxensive unemploy ment have led to the expressed hope by workers' representa tives and others that the reduc tion program may be implement ed gradually. They have stimu lated speculation also as to just how much of the 1942 model out put total can be concentrated in the early months of the new automotive year. Despite the tapering off of pro duction already under way on 1941 model output, assemblies for July arc expected to total close to 400.000. Customary new model assembly problems will affect output adversely in Aug ust and September regardless of curtailment orders. Yoo-Hoos Ring Out On Portland Links PORTLAND, July 21 OP) Lt. Col. A. E.

Although Oregon Statu college bcsldu Wil liiinetlo river hero Is Just about A as fur away from I'oughkeepsls as any school in the nation and there was no OSC crew in ths great Hudson race IIiIn year, thi'iu's news iiliuul rowing at thli campus that dcnuinds attention. Look al tliesu eainiarka of ths OSC crew program: 1. Morn thiol 20(1 youths mnro than nt tiny other univer sity In the nation actively pais tlcipiilo in rowing here. And enrollment of flUOU is only hall or a third that of other crew minded srhnols of the fur west. 2. OSC has the only crew coach who builds his own shells. He is E. A. Stevens, varsity oars man for Cornell in 11)08 and Harvard coach for Ihrco years ' prior to coming to Oregon State. He has Just built two boats of fir plywood tho first shells ever formed of the material. 3. Crew is basically a physical education course rather than competitive sport. Called 'coach' by the youths wiio adhere to hlfk principles, Stevens actually Is IP hired as a physical education professor. And tho crew mem bers pay their own expenses when on trips. 4. Rowing is 14 years old at this school. Its most humblo 'w- glnnlng dales back to 11127 when California university boys do nated a pair of old shells be lieve It to the OSC football tram when It Invaded Berkeley that year. It is surprising how much the students and their coach have done with so little since that time. Hut before going Into a few highlights of rowing as taught at OSC, here's a brief appraisal of the competitive side of crew as presented here. While Inter collegiate racing is definitely secondary to the physical educa tion aspect. OSC crews have as many or moro races than any other outfits. This arhool year, including the fall and spring races (crew Is an all-year sport), various boats were launched for a a dozen different events. The IJ OSC men won more then half of them, ton. Ilearthreaker of the year was the loss to University of Califor nia at Los Angeles (UCLA) var sity boat -as the men from south pulled away In the closing yards of water after trailing all the way from the starting line. The men from this school don't tackle such varsities aa Washington or California and content themselves with lesser boats from those schools. How ever, they take on first boats from Stanford, UCLA and Uni versity of British Columbia. Slower OSC boats race against smaller schools. Right now the campus is set for rocketing Interest In Intra- murnl races at the school this fall. For Coach Stevens has Just completed two new four-oar (plus coxswain) shells buljt of fTt Dnimlas fir plywood. They are the first shells ever constructed of tho laminated panels recog nized as material fnr building houses and, now, for yachts and small boats. No crews have yet raced in them. Stevens turned to fir plywood because the 1-inch panels are much tougher than the planking normally used. The sheets will sustain the abuse given by the dozens of different boys who will row them and are easy to patch. The shells are light (well under 200 pounds) and so strong they can be carried by two men, one at each end without Inter mediate support.
