" ALONG NATURE'S TRAFL by KEN McCI ECD Followlnsr Sit Francis Drake, the next visitor to view the coast ol hc Klamp.Lh Region, v.-us Sfbas- tian Vizcaino. In January of 1003 Vizcaino was In command of two Spanish exploring v c s s e 1 f, thr "San Deigo" and "Tres Rcys." The "Tres Reys" was in command ot Martin Aguilar, These ships sailed from Monterey on the mis sion to explore the coast line to the north on January 3, 1603. The two vessels kept together until January 7, when they were just above Point Rcys, here they part ed, Aguilar continuing along the coast northward and Vizcaino ex ploring one day south towards San Francisco. ' On the 8th. Vizcaino again turned northward to rejoin Agutlar. the wind was light and by January 12, he was within fourteen leagues oi what he supposed was Cape Men doclne. In latitude 41 degrees 30 minutes. The lo How ins day a furi ous storm with sleet came from the southeast and threatened the "San Delgo" with destruction. Viz caino was in real trouble with htorm and the fact that all but six of his men were down with scur vey; he dared not venture farther and so the vessel was "hove to" to await a favorable wind that might carry her to the south. For two days the vessel drifted toward what, was supposed to be Cape Mendocino but when the fog cleared away with a change of wind to the Northwest, Vizcaino discovered he was in latitude 42, at a while cape near high snowy mountains, which from the color of the earth and from the day, Jan uary 10, was named Cabo Blanco da San Sebastian. On our present day mapa we iind Cape Sebastian located Just south of Gold Bench and Is now one of Oregon's Stale Parks. How ever, some students of early ex ploration appear to doubt that this cr.pe was Uie one actually seen by Vizcaino and believe that the lo cation was actunlly the headland in California now known as Trini dad Head 42 miles south of the mouth of the Klamath River. After naming Cabo Blanco. Viz caino turned south following the coast in search of the consort "Tres Rrys." From all the ac counts, that havo descended to us, Vizcaino did not contact the con sort and it was probably fonic time later Uiat the Mory of the cruise of the "Tros Rcys" Was ob tnlned by Padre Ascentlon who was on Vizcaino's ship during the exploration. Of all the crew on the consort, only Kstevau Lopez and lour men survived to relate their i Mory of northern discoveries. j When Aguilar parted Irom his commander ofl Point Reys on Jan uary 7. he continued northward along the coast until he was caught j by the gale of January 13. The i "Tres Rcys" ran bcfoio the wind to find a shelter behind a great cliff Aguilar thought was near Cape Mendocino. Alter the storm, the pilot Antiono Florcs found the latitude to be 43 defn-etr "where the shore r.irUc ; v. tvnr, or point, which was niiined t by Aguilar) Cabo Blance, from which the coast begins to run to the northwest." Thus history leaves us with a riddle two Cabo Blanco's, each named by the respective explor ing parties who was north of who appears to be A mystery. That Vizcaino did not find the consort appears to confirm the fact that Aguilar was above liim on the coast line. While Vlzcunio receives the credit fpr reaching Cape Sf-bast inn It is the opinion of some historian that he may have only reached the present Point St. George on the Klamath Coast, just north of Crescent City. In which case It was Aguilar's ship that reached the cape further north. There is much mystery surround ing this expedition but the histor ians agree that both vessels visit ed the Klamath Coast. Aguilar alter reaching Cabo Blanco took stock of affairs which were apparently in bad nhapc, as they had many sick and had al ready voyaged further than the viceroy s instructions required, he and Flores agreed It best to return to Acapulco. Both commanders died on the return voyage with only Estevan Lopez and four men surviving the ordeal. History seems to have confound ed the two expeditions but the Cabo Blanco of Aguilar was dis tinguished by the fact that "near It was found a very copious and soundable river, on the banks of which were very large ashes, wil lows, brambles, and other trees ol Cnstilc; and wishing to enter it the current would not permit it." This statement has caused a great deal of controversy because in all this region there is no large river Just beyond a cape. Thus the his torians have found riilticulties in tracing recorded landmarks. It has been noted that a cape with a northeast trend can only apply to St. Geotne. and. Smith River with its lagoons just above that point may quite plausibly be made to serve as Anuilar's river named thr Santa Inez. If Point St. Uct)ie was actually Awiiilar's. Cabo Blanco then Viz caino would have been at Trini dad, both points upon the Coastal land dominated by the Klamath R.ver. HAL BOYLE Karl J.

AUGUST 28 VALLEJO, Calif. IPI How do you raise a child in trie 20tn cen tury, which many people are be ginning to regard as the century of Juvenile delinquency? I asked the question of my friend, Wyman Riley, managing editor of The Gibson Publications here. He and his wife, Marjorie. have the problem ot raising six children. How do they go about it? "We don't think of it as a prob lem." said Riley. "And we don't have many set theories about It. We like children, and try to make our home so attractive tney would miner spend their time there than elsewhere." The roll call of the Biley off spring land the Lord only Knows whether It Is complete yet) Is as follows: Margaret, 15, Ellen, 14, Brendn, 8, Timothy, 6. Michael, 3, Sheila, "going on one." The Rileys live In a big, old fashioned house, the kind that used to be built for large families, with plenty of yard space to play p The house has four bathrooms, only one of which, Riley said. "Is hun with my wife's clothing.'" "Our home Is big enough so that each kid has his own room," he sBid "Each takes pride in his room and keeps it clean, and each kid has his own duties around the house. ' The older children help take care of the younger ones, and seem lo like to. We are lucky in that we have two home - made baby sitters In our two older girls, and we pay lliem the going rale 60 cents an hour." They are a close-knit family. Wyman and Marge both believe their main duties as parents are lo teach their children good man ners, give them a religious up bringing, and keep them busy in a wholesomo way. They say fam ily prayers together each night. go on picnics or clam digging parties together on Sundays. The Riley home has a television room, and eight school desks, painted a fire engine red, face the TV set-one for each child and two extra -for their chums. "We don't ration them on tele vision," said Riley. "The only rule la that they must finish their home work before they can watch it. , "Comic books aren't a worry , with us. We don't have them In the house. Our children are great readers, but we started them off: with good books, and now they ; seem to prefer them, "Our two oldest girls are be coming Interested in social activi ties. It they want to -fro to a school dance, we take them there- and bring1 them home. There is a wading pool in the yard, and space to build tree houses and play games. The chil dren like to help Marge in her hobby-gardening. She has planted tomato vines and other vegetables around the lawn. That may sound crazy, but-well, it looks nice." What about movies? "Our kids aren't particularly in terested in movies," said Riley. "They don't have to go but of the home to find entertainment. Tney have more fun at home. They like to bring their friends home, and we encouraye them to do so." Tew crises arise In the Riley household . that require punish ment. "Restricting a child to his room, or cutting down his social activity In some way is enough," Riley said. "The important thine is to explain fully to a child why he is I being punished, and never to pun ish him until he does understand why. Then he will take it in good grace. Children have a pretty fair sense of Justice. "But exposition-explaining why one thing, is right and another thing is wrong-works better than punishment. The mother sets them j the example in most families, and our kids have open lucky in hav ing the right kind of mother. "I guess I sound like a pretty haphazard father, but actually our six kids are too happy lo be much ot a problem. We all like each other, and enjoy doini; things to gether, and I guess that's pretty much the story." JAMES MARLOW WASHINGTON l The Com munist party in this country Is on i rocky road now, but ils fate is still uncertain even though Presi dent Eisenhower yesterday signed the act outlawing it. That's because of the court fights which aae now talcing place and still lie ahead. Two questions may stick in people's minds be cause of the confusing way Con gress passed this legislation in its closing days this month. Does this new law mean the Communist party must now cease to exist? And does it make it a crime now to. be a Communist or a member of the Communist party? The answer to both ques tions is no. The law" doesn't say the party must pass out of existence, al though In tune that may be the effect. It says the party Is now de prived of rights, privileges and Immunities which other organiza tions enjoy. For example, it cannot under j this law have candidates on a bal-; lot in federal elections for Con. The Supreme Court by next spring may give its verdict on whether the party members must register or the McCarran Act is unconstitutional. Party leaders have indicated they would never register, no matter what the ver dict is. If the court rules against them, the t'overnment by force Th. Smith Act does not mention th! Communist party by name. In such a prosecution the I0V ernment. would have to prove, defendant had knowledge of th, organization's purpose. It Wlll JjZ its first trial under this section if the act this fall. The defendant wil! be Claude Llghtfoot, a Com munist leader of Chicago.

C27 I'ine St. NEW YORK (ifV-Droughl and in creased exports of farm products arc teaming up to whittle a little away from the piles of surpluses. They are also having their effect on prices. Bad growing weather is cutting production and raising the prices of some fruits and vegetables at the grocery. Farm exports have increased 4 per cent in the last 12 months, the Agriculture Department re ports. But much of the gain was due to price cutting as the govern ment tried to squirm out from un uer the big burden of foodstuffs it has acquired In supporting prices. Two other government reports illustrate how confusing the food price picture can be. In July the retail price of food went up largely because of drought damage. In July, however t!ie prices that farmers got for tneir crops averaged 3 per cent below a year ago. In the same month the farmer had to pay about iu per cent more for the things lie bought in, town. The farmer was worse off than last year. And the housewife may have felt that she was the too. All food prices haven't been go ing up, of course. The ris in fresh vegetable prices hurts the more because per capita consumption of vesetables has - been foin? up s.eaauy in recent years. Fresh vegetable consumption stays fairly level, but both frozen and canned varieties have found larger mar krts. Meat caters are getting a break these days. By shopping around, the housewife can usually beat last up to the .states whether they keep the party off their ballots in stale elections. Fuzziness begins at this point on what else the party loses. The law itself doesn't say specifically. Government lawyers are still stu dying the possibilities the law pro vides for action against the party. The lirst government move, when Its lawyers have made up their minds, may be sudden. The party no doubt will light In court hut that he must If the govern' ment can prove his knowledge of the party's conspiratorial nature register as a member of a Communist action" organization. Right there the new law overlaps with the McCarran. Act's registra tion requirements and may con fuse the court struggle. But this doesn't mean the government in the meantime is helpless to act against individual Communists.
