Unless something Is done, and
done pretty darn Quick, outdoor life
In the Klamath Basin is a thing of
toe past.
Us mere humans will have to
spend our time in nice tight little
homes while the mosquitoes take
over the outdoor terrace. At the
rate they aro going they'll probably
take over the barbecue rig, too,
and use it to heat up some of their
larger victims.
Man and boy we've lived up here
In the High Desert or a good many
years, but never remember seeing
the bug menace as great as it is
today. Used to think that the brand
of stingers over on the Chewaucau
in the spring were bad, and that
those along portions of the Little
' Deschutes and Spencer Creek
packed a good wallop. But not any
more. The band (if that's how you
refer to 180 billion mosquitoes)
that has moved in on Brokenback,
our home on the lake, could give
any other mosquito the first two
ones and then eat mm alive with
gusto. ,
Not that we haven't put up a
good battle. I've invested In all
the brand new poisons with un
pronounceable names but to no
avail. All the collection of various
sprays has dene Is set up a smell

After reading the" complicated
scary directions on the bottles,
most of which warn that this par
ticular witches' brew must be
handled with care because it will
kill anything up to and including
small livestock, we gird ourselves
. with rubber- gloves, spray masks
and a large net to keep the smaller
mosquitoes from tearing off our
ears while we spray, and take to
the brusblands.
That's usually the signal for
those stingers that have been rest
ing to show up for a meal. They
eat tout spray and thrive on it.
Like tonic. You can hear 'em call
ing to their friends and inviting
them over: "Old Bill's giving a
picnic supper, come on over and
bring the family."
This is. the first year that I can
remember when we've had to build
a smudge fire in the bedroom. Not
that it keeps 'em off, but a least
you don't have to lie there and
watch 'em peel off and come

Back shortly after the war we
had a miracle.' potion known as
DDT. Usually about a five percent
mixture that knocked the mosquito
kicking the instant he got into .'t.
You could spray around the house
and the stuff would last for weeks.
Last week I got a sack of SO per

and spent two days spraying
around. Finally gave It up when

I said to the waiter in La Grande

Pierre was sad at the news of
my leaving. He is very patriotic,
and hates to see any tourist leave

"Ah, this Is an occasion," he
murmured. "It requires some
thing especial. Would M'sieu like,
perhaps, some bullfrog potage fol

it goes without saying, by an onion

One of the subjects that attracts
attention of every one who reads
stories of the Modoc War Is the
names of the participants. Actual

and the white, Captain Jack was
reinforced by the band of Hot

The acquisition of a name by an
Indian in tne Indian civilisation
was actually a complex process
and not as simple as under the
white man's order. In the Indian
world, personal names were given
and changed at the critical epochs
of life, such as birth, puberty, the
first war expedition, some notable
feat, elevation to chieftainship, and
finally retirement from active lile
was often marked by tne adoption
of the name of one s son.
In general, Indian names, can be
divided into two classes; first, the
true name, corresponding to our
personal names: and, second,
names which answer rather to our
titles and honorary appellations.
The former define or indicate the

, NEW YORK 1.41 The loo of
I America Is changing. And with It
are coming new business ways,
new living habits.
! Today New York Stale Is open

the express way already Is draw
Ing new shopping centers to Its
sides, luring new factories to near
by sites.
I Cities are changing, too. as well
as the countryside. And the slow

I on this trend neither In the shift-
in? of population from region to
; region, from cities to suburbs, nor
In the new ways of working and
! living that the big change Is bring,
ing about.
I Cities are rlpoina out old strri
putting in new expressways. Some
of the cow-path streets of Boston,
for example, are being replaced
with a speedway to carry down
town workers to outlying residen
tial areas.
Seattle Is building an elevated
highway along Its waterfront. Pitts
burgh Is boring a new expressway
Into its downtown area, and plan
ning to move a railroad station
and rail line out of Its way. and
tunnel through a mountain. Brook
lyn this week opened a three-level
expresswsy to bypass traffic
around the business district.
The parking problem finds a
number of cities building muni
cipal garages some under their
parks, others rising several stories
into the air In sldeless structures.
Centralisation and decentraliza
tion are going on hand In hand
new ways of saving space, new
ways of spreading out. There's a
spurt of erecting new-style office
buildings with the accent on glass.
New York's Psrk Avenue Is now
seeing a number of luxury apart
ment nouses giving way to luxury
on ices, because the rent return
is higher on work space. It means
more concentration of workers In
nldtown. At the same time many
New York townhouses are giving
way to luxury apartvents, mean
ing more persons living on the
same ground space. Cooperative
apartments are spreading people
now owning a cubicle of space the
way they once did houses.
The expressways that many cit
ies are building to empty their
workers into the suburbs at the
end of the day like the system in
Los Angeles, for Instance soon
open up new and more distant
areas for homes. And the super
highways In time become as clut
tered with citizenry as were the
old, narrow roads.
At the same time an Increasing
number of factories are taking to
the countryside. Put a one-story
factory on a plot of several acres
and you have both the room In
which to grow and breathe, and
the economy of putting production
lines entirely on one level.
Sometimes the factories are near
highways, like New York's new
thruway. Sometimes they' are way
out beyond public transportation
lines like one In the Charlotte,
N.C. are but management - re
ports that workers get U-.ere all
right, and apparently like the work
environment.
A number of cities are planning
or opening Industrial sites along
their outskirts, attracting new fac
tories without also adding to the
downtown clutter.
Others are clearing out blighted
downtown areas Chicago and
Pittsburgh are two examples.
Still others, like New York and
Chicago, are building or planning
office buildings on stilts above their
downtown railroad yards.
And many cities are seeing the
flight of stores and even corporate
office headquarters to their sub
urbs, as the whole look of Ameri
ca changes.

In the spring nf 1953 food be

Frequently Uie only medicines
available were cough tablets for
pneumonia and charcoal tablets
for dysentery. Incisions for drain
age of abscesses were made with

with Improvised instruments, such
as the metal arch support from a
combat boot.
Virtually all deaths in the Com

caused directly or Indirectly by
starvation, exposure and harass

In another report Dr. Louis H.

Dr. Bauer said Uie AMA reluc

Dr. Bauer said some doctors
who had been notified had ar
ranged their affairs and then had
been kept walUng for months be

He said there were rumors also
that doctors were being discharged
from the services a month or two
before their minimum terms are
