Red Cross
Drive Far
From Quota
The 1946 drive for funds for
the American Red Cross was
progressing slowly in Klamath
county as only one-seventh of
the $43,100 quota had been
reached as the campaign ended
its third week.
Although this is not a wartime
year and the quota is the highest
of any peacetime quota, workers
were doubling their efforts to
raise the fund which still is
necessary in many war channels.
Today the amount on hand was
$6800.
Compute Contacti
Residential workers will com
plete their contacts, with but
few exceptions, this week accord
ing to Mrs. Bob Henry, chairman.
Otto Sari and Roy Carter re
ported this week that S 6th
street area was virtually com
plete and the East Main street
business district workers were
now making their contacts.
Robert A. Thompson, drive
chairman, urged Klamath folks
to be as generous this year as
they have been in the past and
reminded' that "$1.00 wasn't
enough."
Added to membership in the
$100 club were the following:
Geary Brothers seed ranch, Dick
B. Miller, Reed Tractor and
Equipment, Dr. and Mrs. Warren
C. Hunt, Standard Stations Inc.,
Southern Oregon Amusement
company, Mr. and Mrs. Robert
P. Ellingson Sr.

from Monday.
Represen t a- 9
tives from the s
various inde
pendent col
leges in Ore
gon were at te&ls
seniors concerning the respective
schools. The meeting was new
at 2 o'clock. One of the group
gave a short speech on the ad
vantage of a small school over
that of a larger one, listing me
close contact between teacher
and student as one of the most
fundamental. After this the
meeting was adjourned and the
seniors returned to their classes
with the exception of those who
wished to remain to talk to the
different college representatives
Reed. Linfield. St. Helens Hall
Willamette and Lewis and Clark
were among the colleges repre
sented.
And Incidentally
Pictures of clubs have been
taken all this past week for the

The seniors voted on their
class motto, color and flower.
The motto will be used at srad.
uation and the flower and color
will be in evidence at the senior
banquet.
Report cards came out yester
day for the nine weeKs graaes.
There are two nine weeks terms
in a semester.
The Stocking dance is on the

starts at 8:30 and lasts until
11:30. Baldy's band will play for

and the louder the better. Frizes
will be given for the most unusual.

Porter Talks
Price Boosts
NEW YORK, March 22 W1)
Paul A. Porter, OPA adminis
trator, said today there would
be "some price increases" s
the result of approved-' wage
boosts but predicted that the
new wage-price policy would
have little or no effect upon
rents or on "the average of
food prices."
In a speech prepared for a
luncheon of the union for dem
ocratic action, Porter declared
that "as far as the basic eco
nomics of our problem is con
cerned, we can continue to hold
the average of prices to a slight
increase during the coming
year," and added:
"The new wnge-price policy
will add somewhat to the rate
of creeping public increases.
Let's not duck this reality. Ap
proved wage increases will lend
to some price increases which
would not have occurred under
the original wage-price policy.
In the majority of American in
dustries, however, prospective
earnings are so well above pre
war levels that reasonable wage
increases can be negotiated
without raising prices.
"It is clear that the new
wage-price policy will have no
effect on the level of rents. It
would have little effect on the
average of food prices. And it
will have little or no effect up
on a variety of miscellaneous
living costs."
Flames Fatal
To 2 Persons
BEND, Ore., March 22 (JPh
Jean Muriel Petrie, 36, and
James Fitzgerald, about 47,'1 died
in a blaze which destroyed a
two-room house yesterday, but
two others escaped.
Dan Murphy, owner, who fled
the flaming structure along with
Martin Holmes, 76, said an oil
stove suddenly burst into flames
after smoking briefly. He told
state and city investigators that
the stove exploded when some
thing apparently a blanket
was thrown on it, and blazing
oil was spewed all over the
room.
The men said the sudden wall
of flame barred Mrs. Petrie and
Fitzgerald from the door.
Sheriff Claude L. McCauley
identified the woman as the
estranged wife of George Petrie,
storekeeper at Millican, Oregon's
"one-man" town.
