Then I noticed that my caller was Uie once pretty young thing who taught me in the second grade. At 80 she was still good to look at and soon proved that, whatever the many vears since we had last met had cost her, It was not ner memory. She explained her abrupt en trance. "I never hear a file on metal or a chair drawn over a tile floor that I don't think of those abominable school slates of my teaching days." she said. We had a wonderful visit, but couldn't get together on the slates. Mv memorv of them was one ol affection: although it's true that . .laccvwim nl kid SCratCftmK away with slate pencils was Just about as soothing and musical as a saw factory. I remember the folding slate i had. with four surfaces, and all bound 'round with red felt, laced to the frame with black cord; a muf fler to deaden the frequent crashes to the floor; another reason teach ers turned gray. Nothing but soapstone slate pen cils, which few could afford, pro tected Jumpy nerves against that Ing symphony of a score of young sters doing their lessons on their slates, each bent upon making all the noise he could. I'd give a lot to hear it again. The folding slate that closed like a book was rarely needed for the serious business at hand. The in side surfaces were mostly used for crude and rude caricatures of the teacher; or kiddish comments on her hair, ears, feet or bustle, whic ever most distinguished her fro the common herd. The poor thi couldn't even enjoy ber beau privacy. The impish observations had be guarded, of course, so when 1 slstes were collected, ofttlmes t erpectedly. there would be a gri r?urry to erase tne cartoons an wMt'Ctsms.

My caller asked if I remembered the penally I once paid for making use of this forbidden method. I did. She made me write on my slate 5o times: "I won't spit here any more." We discussed the spelling lessons, when slates were passed to the next pupil behind. Then the flower ot the (lock strutted to the blackboard and produced the correct spelling perhaps with Just a bit of prompt ing.

This survivor votes Yes I CAUGHT IN THE ROUNDS By DEB ADDISON It's a wonderful morning to ait down to a typewriter (this being written Saturday). The paper last night heralded the newa that the Oregon potato crown is back in the Basin, and the radio last night brought the story of the KUHS football win over Medford. Maybe the sorry deer season helped out our admonitions to the spud growers to concentrate on getting their best Into the 16th an nual Klamath Basin Potato Festi val. At any rate. Basin growers made clean sweep of the champion ships at Merrill, after the show competition nsa Deen openea io all comers. Last year it was ex panded beyond the Basin, by in viting Central Oregon growers, and those boys from the Bend country walked awav with the honors. So our bats are off to Walter and Ed SUstny of Malin and their prise commercial netted Gems; to John Oiacomini of Merrill and his Gem certified seed: to George Smith, the commercial White Ro&e king from Tulelake; and to Mer rill's Leo McKoen with his first prise certified White Rose seed. Further investigation prompts us to pass on the warning to our spud men not to get complacent. This is given for two reasons. One is that you can make tne aure bet that the Deschutes coun try growers are planning right now for a comeback. The other is that, though tne winning exhibits were Indeed excel lent, the number of entries, in po tatoes and other crops both, was pretty skimpy. In that respect it was not a showing to do justice to this great potajo country. The Pelicans proved that they've got the stuff to win when it counts. We're counting on them to go rigm on and beat Grants Pass and the other football teams they come against. down thereafter or It provides the leavening to change an as sorted bunch ot athletes into a team. . ' It looks like Redding did. that for the Pelicans. In our group listening to the Klamath-Medford football game was a rancher, whose place Is quite close in to town. In the course of the evening he received a phone call from a neigh bor who reported that several ca of hunters were camped on tl hill back of" his house. His place Is fenced and pa locked. The only means of snea ing in could have been on i f trail, which Is private propert; subject to use only by the land owner and fire protection agencies. He was debating whether to get an officer and go up at day break and haul them in lor tres pass, or Just go up and kick them off. Such happenings as this point up the problem brought on by the so called sportsmen through their complete disrespect lor private property. Underlying It la the haywire philosophy of "the world owea me a living" and "the world owes me amusement." Don't think that It's Just a local problem coming from the deer mortality last winter and spring, the untimely doe season and the influx of hunters from Western Oregon. The Roseburg paper last Monday printed notices from 66 ithat'a right, fifty six) different landowners prohibiting hunting on their properties. Japanese Consul Wants Greeting SINGAPORE on Japan's first postwar consul general to Singa pore, who complained because the British government sent no officials Answering attacks on Stevenson, the Democratic candidate, for what has been called his association with the convicted former State Depart ment employe, these supporters say Elsenhower, the Republican candidate, had given "a far greater and more personal endorsement" of Hiss than had Stevenson. In a statement yesterday, they said: "Cricticism in neither case is fair or warranted. But if there is to be criticism. Gen. Eisenhower is more vulnerable than Gov Ste venson." In New York City, an Eisenhower spokesman said Stevenson's friends "protest too much." The Stevenson Slinnorter nntf that Eisenhower had become a member of the Board ol Trust of the Carnegie Endowment Ior In ternauonal Peace in !Mg while Hiss was president of the organ!- HUtNI. They added that in Dec.. 1348, the board, with Eisenhower a member, declined Hiss' proffered resignation in the face of charees questioning his loyalty and voted Hiss three months leave of absence with full pay while he defended himself against the charges. Tht statement said Elsenhower never action of the board. Hiss was convicted of lying to a Jury In denying that he ever passed Stale Department secrets to a Communist courier. Steven son made a deposition In Hiss' lirst trial saying that so far as he had heard Hiss' reputation was good. Sen. Richard M. Nixon of Cali fornia, the Republican vice presi dential nominee, has attacked what he called Stevenson's "association" with Hiss. Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy of Wisconsin also has made an Is sue of the Hiss case in criticizing Stevenson. In Winnetka, 111., last week. Nix on charged in a campaign speech that Stevenson was "a man who was duped by Communist Alger Hiss and wiio has apparently never regretted his action In defending bim tand) who has never uttered a public word of Indignation at Hiss' infamous deeds. The eight who signed yesterday's statement said that "Eisenhower, of all people, should understand how unjust and unwarranted are the current attacks on Gov. Steven son for his deposition in the first trial of Alger Hiss." In New York. James Hagerty, Eisenhower's press secretary commented: To paraphrase Shakespeare and Mrs, Edith Sampson. Chicago attorney. They declared that "similar un fair and sinister Interpretations could be placed with better cause upon Gen. Eisenhower's connection with Hiss." Reciting Elsenhower's accep tance of membership on the Car negie endowment board, the eight said: "He, too, must have believed that Hiss' reputation for Integrity, loy alty and veracity was good, for surely he would not have Joined the Boa id of Trustees if he had be lieved the reputation ol Us presi dent to be otherwise." The statement noted that John Foster Dulles, described as Elsen hower's principal foreign affairs adviser, was serving as chairman of Ilia board when It rejected Hiss resignation and voted him leave with pay to defend himself. Observing that Eisenhower j hadn't objected to the board's ac tion, the statement continued: "Surely the refusal to accept Hiss' resignation constituted a far greater and more personal endorse, mem of Alger Hiss than did Gov.

Every little while some student would exclaim excitedly about a bright "shooting star." Many of these meteors seemed to dash up the sky from the eastern horizon.

They seem to radiate from the constellation Orion, which early In the evening is still below the eastern sky line.
