And a few thai, iall by the wayside. While the picture above is not as serious as it might Mem, there were a lew on the Tribe Ride who had a little dilti- eulty making it from the ground to the top of a horse. I don't think that picture of the corpse on the ground is me, but then along about the last day I wouldn't have oeen quite sure. While sitting at a desk is no doubt superb exercise for toning up the muscles, one finds that a aaddle is not always as steady as the old swivel chair. Of course, on the other hand, the swivel chair Isn't as much fun. Thinking back on the Tide we are reminded of that peculiarly American habit of laughing hard est when the going gets the tough est. There was only one spot on the trip that was. really tough, ex cept on the seat of the pants, and that was when a handful of us took a chance for a shortcut on the road home and missed the trail by a country mile: Wo rode for quite a length of lime jn me nnnsu 01 a iir liliCKCi that would make the jungles of Malaya look like the 18th lairway at Pebble Beach. Which probably wouidn t have been at all discom booberating If It hadn't been for the fact that Jt was all either straight uphill or straight down bill. At least tile downhill slopes jtave you enough momentum to smash your way through without much trouble. My sincerest ad miration Went to Jim Reed, may or of Alturas who not only suided us through the mess and out to the open country via Pine Greek, but led a horse behind him as well. I'm afraid that had I tried that little stunt I'd still be tip there, about a hundred yards from where I entered the thicket and still try ing to find the moss on the north eide of a tree. Or the led horse. Or my own. Jim, Incidentally, wanted t o come up here lor the cow-milking contest between mayors held dur ing the pre-Pourth of July week celebrations. If he can milk like he can ride he'd have walked oil with the priio In no uncertain manner. Ran into Jim Savage yesterday and he cleared up a point that has been worrying me for some time bout the cluck season. Maybe worrying some others loo. You enn hunt ducks In both Cal ifornia und OroRon without hav ing to worry about the difference In bag limits. In Oregon you can shoot nine birds per day, as long as three of Vm are wigeon or pin tail or a combination thereof, and you can have 15 in possession. In California the limit Is ten and ten. So, you can go down south of the border and shoot your limit and still bring 'em home. If it were the other way around It might be more embarrasmg. The ducks are beginning to move already, with the pintails QUICKIES coming In first as usual. And even at that they're late in their arri val. . The lake Is beginning to take on a ducky appearance in the evening now and becoming clamorous with duck and goose calls as they start lo band up. i v It won't be long until the skies will be full of southbound birds and hunters fingers will begin to ucn. Already in the sporting goods stores you notice impatient sports men handling shotguns, looking over the shell situation, picking up a cleaning outut or a new duck hat and talking duck hunting to anyone who'll pause long enough to listen. If they aren't doing flint they are getting their early copies of ie 1U54 football rules or messing around with gridiron equipment and telling about the time in '32 I hat they picked "up that football knee. We still cling to our theory that all IhiH foul weather is directly attributable to the Btom and hy drogen bomb tests. Maybe the shocks have thrown the earth off its axis by a few degrees. Or maybe It has changed the course oi ocean currents, or the super sonic stream that flows above the earth that we hear so much about lately. At any rale, I'm afraid our sci entists have outgrown their erec tor sets and have gotten all of us into a petty kettle of fish. Look, fellows, vou got na Into this, now get us out.

X&JP fcxafffofjC Bt-Jfte VTRG.N-A BEACH, CAUGHT IN THE ROUNDS By DEB ADDISON THERE WERE both new faces and old friends among the buy ers at the Junior Livestock Show auction sale took both to 44 hogs and 91 beeves for a grand total $38,056.01 to the 4-H and FFA club members, which made it very great sale Indeed. Dorothy Lowell, bidding in Mar- guret Colwell s grand champion lamb; Crater Lake Machinery, bidding in Carol Alberts' grand champion porker; and Dick B. Miller Co., bidding In Elliot West's grand champion steer, led the way hut they weren't the big buyers at the sale. There were seven buyers who put over a thousand dollars each on the line, and that list was led by Oregon Food Stores. Oregon Food bought 10 steers in three lots to go ahead of all others with bids totaling $2317.70. Morgan Johnson, Joe Fales and the Ore gon Food outfit get the blue rib bon for buyers. Safeway Stores stood alone as second largest buyer going high to get eight steers In three' lots for $1846.95. We're always glad to see food markets on the heavy buying end because it means the best meat of the year will be in their sales cases a little later. The other morc-than-thousand buyers were led by Louis Kalina of Malin with $1134.75. The Carl Woods-T. C. Griggs combine bid in $1073.35 worth, Weyerhaeuser bought to the tune of $1034.15, Dick Hriucl laid out $1013.30 for Tulana Farms, and Bob Ellingson paid out $1005.00 for Ellingson Lumber Co. Come to think of it, a couple of other gents were the really big buyers. They bought a little earlier and they didn't take any of it home but a lot of others did. J The five halves of beef that Gib Fleet and Jack Taylor gave such a wonderful treatment In the huge barbecue pit were purchased and donated by O. K. Puckett and Loren Palmerton. Palmerton is president of the Rotary Club, which sponsors the Star Sues Magazine Tuesday night. It show. Sales records also show that I dollars damages is asked by James buy the 94 sheep. ; Palmerton and the Eldorado Lum- Mason, British movie actor, and oer Co. made three successful bids ! his wife Pamela because, they at the auction amounting to; said, published articles declared $710.00. their marriage was shaky. GUEST EDITORIAL Puckett is the Rotary director in charge of the show and he was tabbed with the label of "Procur er of the Beef." Instead of twist ing some cattleman's a.m for the barbecue he bought 'er.i himself, and then Palmerton chipped in half. They said they have been happily married for 15 years and have no intention of separating. They alleged "false and libelous statements" were printed in the Motion Picture and Television Magazine, a monthly publication. Each year we provide Puckett I and the Dall' News a Los Angeles with a brand new, loud colored newspaper. Herald & News printers apron to1 They asked $250,000 damages keep him neat and tidy for his against Erskine Johnson, identified duties in the serving line. For J as the writer of the articles, and some reason it always winds up : the Fawcett Publications, publish- wlth him wearing the apron back wards and not being In the serving line. Apparently he "procures' the beef the same way backwards but nobody has been heard to make a complaint. We asked Earl Kent, who was "bull of the woods" in charge of the Rotary activities under Puck ett, who ought to get special rec ognition for effort beyond the call of duty in .putting on the show. He didn't hesitate an instant. "Brother." he said, "just thank everybody. It was a wonderful er of the magazine and $250,000 punitive damages against Johnson alone. In another suit they asked $250. oon from the Daily News and $250,000 from Johnson. surprise lo me how everything went off In grand style. Just thank everybody." If you really want to know who to thank you'll have to get a list of all the 4-H leaders from Fran Skinner, and then get a list of all the parents from them, and then lun down all the kids after that.

STANTONV ' Editor Roseburg' News-Review Here in Douglas County we have probably done more pioneering wi:h camera and radio in the court room than any other place in the country. In this pioneering venture we have enjoyed exceptional co operation from circuit Juage Carl E. Wimberly and the pro-tem judges serving the court during his illness. Of course we haven't tried tele vision in our local courtroom be cause we have no television facili ties. Throughout the entire country there is a raging battle between tile press and the courts over the matter of reporting with camera and by radio. Television also Is trying to get into courtrooms. Law yers at their meeting in" Chicago have been quite vigorous In their debate on the subject. Many judges and lawyers believe the press in all its forms should be barred from courts. Some ob ject to any reporting of a case prior to the time It has been brought to trial and a verdict re turned. These extremists hold that news items are prejudicial to de- lenaants. PROHIUITIO.V OV CAMKRAS Courts quite generally frown upon the use of cameras. While judges and lawyers objecting to newspaper coverage of court news are few, a great number opposes radio. Television finds very little favor. ' Only a few years ago the news paper was virtually the onlv vn. hide for the dissemination of news. But in late years we have seen tile rapid growth of news photogra phy. Close on the heels of photog raphy came radio. Now we have television. Each is utilized in con veying news. The camera, either in its still form, as motion picture or video, is an extension of the pub lic eye. Radio is the extension of the public ear.1 The use of the camera In the courtroom was successfully intro duced by the News-Review several years ago. It was done unobtru sively. This newspaper believes in up holding the dignity and decorum of the courtroom. But it also be lieves it can carry out its report ing duties with pencil, camera and radio without Interference with court dignity. Bob Grant, news editor of our radio station, KRNR, has proven that radio definitely can be fitted into court procedure. Judge Wimberly was so interest- "... you got a hunting do in uir Herald A News Want Ad what on earth have you lost now?" Still Heals i rf 4' y . "... -."M J: - .fl S3 LORNE J.

Grant learned that by plugging his equipment into the court reporter's amplifier, he could get fine reproduction with his own machines entirely outside the court : room. NEWS OR ENTERTAINMENT? We believe it has been amply evidenced that newspaper report ers, news photographers and radio news technicians can do their work in a courtroom without interference with the court or without detract ing from its proceedings. .We also believe that the camera and radio have an equal place with the news paper reporter in reporting court room news. With cooperation . on both sides there need be no con flict. But it is our opinion there should be a clear-cut definition of the pur pose to be served. If camera or radio are to be used In the courtroom the purpose should be strictly contined to dis semination of news or information. The court is not a place of en tertainment. Yet It would be easy ; for 'either radio or television to i cross the line of news or lnforma tion into the field of entertainment. We fear there will be a strong temptation to make entertainment of our courts. Reporting media must strictly regulate themselves. The "right of the public to know" demands the fullest use of all news media. -hut it is not to be desired that our courts supply entertain ment. H may be difficult to draw the line in the proper place. It mn be hard to determine, particularly on the television screen, where viewers cease to be informed and begin to be entertained. Yet there is a distinction, and this 'distinc tion, we believe, should be most ' religiously observed. j Elk Hunt Permits Due August 31 Applications for permits to hunt in the controlled Tenmile Lake elk hunt are due in the Portland office of the game commission noi later than 10 a.m., August 31.
