GURRIN NAMED
OF
J
Dr. Hugh Currin was elected
president of the Klamath county
junior chamber of commerce for
1S42 at a meeting of the local
group Monday night. He suc
ceed! Joe Bally on the first Mon
day in January.
; Other officers elected at the
meeting were: Howard H. Smith,
vice president; Donald faloan,
secretary and Adolph Zamsky,
treasurer. Along with the above,
the following directors were also
'elected: Walter Bownc, Jack
Campbell, Francis Connor, Hugh
Gearin, John Harris, Joe Lemen,
Oliver Moeu and Art Rickbiel.
President-elect Currin will ap
point each director to a certain
national project which they will
carry through for their term.
' After the election a general
discussion of policies and future
' projects was taken up by all
members and the new officers
were given many helping hints
. for their new term. Quite a con
troversy arose as to whether the
junior chamber should continue
their annual boat regatta and it
was the opinion of the majority
of the group that this project
' should by all means be continued
as it was something that the
people of the Klamath basin
- looked forward to each year.
The clean-up and paint-up
campaign which has been an
ideal civic project in past 'years
and somewhat neglected during
the last two years, was urged by
the members to be revised and
given full cooperation by the
new officers and the whole
group. This is program that
really requires a year around
activity and should be stressed
at all times, according to the
Jaycees.

the burden from the shoulders
of postal employes. .
A slight increase in mailing
activity has been noted at the
postoffice, but in recent years
the peak is noted around the
18th and 19th of the month.
Many applications have been
received for Christmas help by
the postoffice department, how
ever added employes will" not be
picked until some time next
week, Hawkins stated. Between
26 and 27 extra men will be put
to work for the. holidays when
the selections are made, it was
learned.
