Many Switch-Backs I From Beatty, the road to the peak of Yainax wanders back j and forth through pine timber, i coming out occasionally on high, . brushy ridges and clearing that afford a view down to the val ' ley floor below. A wire fence and gale mark the edge of the reservation, and from that point on the road starts the long climb, making it up the hill in a series of long switch-backs that roll up the miles as the cars progress. Dust in here was deep and clinging, and the cars heat ed badly on the trip, almost ev eryone having to stop and refill his radiator before the climb was completed. The summit of Yainjax Is small, a sharp peak, and is 7226 feet above sea level. It is the only lookout in the territory that has no obstructing peaks in the way of its area. From the summit, one can see Bly and Beatty on the one side ar.d Bo nanza on the other. It was from this lookout that the fire on the Casebeer ranch was spotted yesterday.

The tower at Yainax is of modern steel construction, set in concrete blocks to withstand the wind. Below the lookout, as at all stations, is a snug cabin for the watcher, where he does his sleeping and eating. Water is i hauled to the top by trucks and siored in large cans, ine tainax lookout has a good spring about a quarter of a mile down the peak also. The top of the peak it' so dry that it acts as insula tion, and phone connections were very difficult, according to Ogle, until they grounded out the wires in the spring. Now the service is almost as clear as town connections.

Following j lunch, the group was shown the 1 large and particularly well- i equipped shop, set up to handle any job that requires the use of metals. Roundabout Trip Horn Last lap of the day's journey was a roundabout trip from camp 6 to Klamath via King's cabin and Silver lake road into Chiloquin and home. From camp 6. the party took the Pelican bay logging road north for some 20 miles and then west to upper Long creek. From Long creek, the road led to King's cabin, where the original cabin, built by Judge Reeder in 1908, is still standing, though not in use. A fire crew is stationed at King's cabin to handle that end of any emergency that comes, again be ing in constant contact with headquarters by radio. From King's cabin, the party started the last portion of the trip, going over into the old Sil- ver lake road and cutting it about two and a half miles from the Bar-Y ranch. From there to Chiloquin. some 30 miles, and then on to Klamath Falls, ar ; riving here about 8 o'clock Ogle had called the time at lunch, saying he could make it by 8, and he didn't miss it more than a quarter of an hour. Throughout the entire tour fire guards were pointed out to the party, and the methods of fightinc fire, getting eauiDment into and out of fire zones and i j methods of handling fire crews were explained. When you drive over the land, some of it over j bad roads, you realize that a million acres is a lot of land to i patrol, and a lot more to keep ' free of fir. .

Mrs. George McMillan. 27, whose husband is employed at the McNutt Lumber company in the Fort Klamath area, is in Hillside hospital today with a .22 caliber bullet wound in her chest. The bullet entered the upper left side of her chest and ranged out behind her left shoulder. Mrs. McMillan told hospital officials that she had shot her self accidentally yesterday aft ernoon at Sand Point, about 20 miles north of Klamath Agency on the Bend highway. Hospital attendants said that her condi tion is good. Party Prowler Strikes Again A party prowler last night entered the C. H. Underwood home at 320 N. 7th while a party was in progress and rifled the purses of seven feminine guests to the tune of about $112. ' The purses were later found where they had been tossed over a stone wall into the back yard of a house on N. 6th. I This burglary makes the third party-prowl type of crime here 1 in recent weeks, and all have ; been committed in the same I general neighborhood. Entry to i the bedroom where the purses had been placed was made by ripping open the screen and un fastening the window latch. The purses looted belonged to Maryellcn Wright, 438 High; Elizabeth Dalton, Malin; Bar bara Palmer, 1129 Crescent; Marjorie Clark, 2012 Main; Vir ginia Turnbow, 1945 Portland; Maude Liskey, 194S Auburn, and Jean Underwood.
