There are some of the finest po tato vines in many a long year brightening the fields today, de spite the usual frosts and adverse weather that marked the usual spring. It looks as though we'd hart a bumper crop. The dry land boys have seem ingly hit it rich, too. Enough of the rlgiu kind of growing weather to assure them oi a good crop. . Now all we need ia a little luck. And good market. The atreets are getting their an nual face lifting lately, und a huge Improvement it will be when fm lshed.

Never seen anything- like it in San Francisco or anywhere else. The Underwood name, of course, comes from Major. Underwood tfirst name really is Clarence) who operated the photo finishing busl- ness for many years in connec- tion with the Underwood Pharmacy (now Walgreen's). Major Underwood was famous aa a young man as a football play er, not an army man. That "Maj or ' is a nickname, not a title. It said in the paper the other day that the Oregon-California po tato marketing agreement control commission met in Redmond and adopted rules for handling the 1952 crop, which coincided with the Ida- Jhank Sage Sideglances- When the prints come back from the finisher the family gathers around to pass judgment.

Oregon has broken Into print again. And this time l airly close to us. The August issue of Sunset, the Western outdoor living magazine, aevotes several pages to a atory called "Oregon's Lost Corner." a yarn dealing with the Steens Moun tains area. Included in the siory are such familiar landmarks as the signboard pointing out Flush, Adel Lakeview, Frenchglen and Hart Mountain, a snap of the French glen hotel and a shot taken from 393 showing Abert Lake. The slate scores azatn on Dace 22 with a shorty about the Mount Hood loop highway, and Northern aiuornu makes u.j t tivuia . uintvca m u:u lur lame - i r- cernina tne Nortilwest in (reneral inriurtm nn ,. uv.

Another goes oil to Europe on a hiking lark. The second-born makes me four more grandiatners. All of this time my camera snaps and snaps and snaps and never tells a lie. At first there was system to it. The earlier of some dosen family volumes show continuity. Then kids, changes and living came so fast that the pictorial re cord goes random, even lacks names ana dates that would be belpful now. Stlli. with half of the story lost throuub carelessness, nothing quite equals a nostalgic evening with those old pictures. They're twice a Interesting now.

About the only people in Ameri ca who claim thev are middle aged are the elderly. This seems a shame to me. For if one Is realty middle-aged, admit!) it publicly, and acts his age. he can get a great deal more out of lite than by imitating col lege uoys. Middle age is like baldness. It Is better to relax and enloy it than try to comb it over and hide it from your friends. The big advantage of being middle-aged is that vou can still savor most of the tempered n!ea?ures of youth and demand manv of the nrlvlleaes of tha elderly. Ynn can I keen a foot in both eairuu.

The credentials, signed by Queen Elisabeth n, were addressed simp ly to "King Ahmed Fuad II." The Egyptian Foreign Ministry re ceived them and forwarded them yesterday to the Regency Council which acts for the Infant son of exiled ex-King Farouk. The Egyptian Parliament pro claimed Farouk "King of Egypt and the Sudan" after discarding an agreement last year with Brit ain for joint Anglo-Egyptian rule of the rich Upper Nile region. Brit ain in actual control of the Sudan never recognised the title. New credentials were needed be cause both Britain and Egypt had come under new sovereigns after the death last winter of King Oeorge VI and the recent abdica-, tion of Farouk. I FREE!

If mnr rwnnl rfttiiri Ihlu they would gladly confess to middle age. But many are middle-aged and don't know it. How can you tell? It Isn't exactly a matter of years. A dog Is middle-aged at six. But a college president of 43 is considered young. The real test is inner, not chron- ological. Here are a few signposts of middle' age: You turn first to the obituaries In the morning newspaper, instead of the sports page, and you feel vaguelv cheated it somebody in teresting hasn't died, the night be fore.
