No matter what we get In the way of hunting seasons there Is Always one outlet for the trigger liappy shoot-'em-up character who roams the county with gun In hand. That's highway signs. Like the one shown here, This one was brought In from the old Lake of the Woods road by Bill Canton, county sur veyor, and shows a pretty good example of the marksmanship dis played by various passing sports men. This sign, which cost about US when it was put up five years ago, has been the target for every thing from .M s to the lowly hut still deadly .22 rlmflre. It's so well shot up. in fact, that Marlbel Kid- well, cleric In the surveyor's office, 1 was having a little trouble making out th original arrow. ; This sort of thing, while expen ;' slve snd destructive, has another angle that a 1st of people tend to overiooK. enroling at mgnway signs, particularly curve signs, is a dangerous pastime. You never know where your bullet is going to ena up ana you may nun or kill people along the right of wsy, not to mention the havoc that can be played with stock in the area. I don't know why people insist on shooting up signs anyway. They're Just blasting away at a sign that they helped pay for. I doubt It they would go home and shoot a hole In their own mail box, but they seem to feel that all highway and directional signs are fair game.

The second game, on October 1, will be sponsored by the Klwanls Club when Eastern Oregon College visits. Game three, on October 8 with Compton Junior College, will be handled by the Jaycees, and the Toketee Lions Club will be at the helm on Octo ber 15 for the game with Boise Junior College.

Danny, whose grandparents were stateless refugees from Ar menia, was born in Shanghai and raised in Hawaii. His father, Roy, an Associated Press newsman in Honolulu, won his U.S. citizenship a few years ago, and it was hard to tell who was prouder that day, father or son. This summer Roy came to New York in advance of his assign ment to the Moscow A. P. bureau. For Danny this was exciting news: On the way to Russia he would at last get to see the United States. He did see it. He saw it for three wonderful weeks. And then he died. . . suddenly and unexpected ly. . . at the height of his happi ness. Death came to Danny on Aug. 21. After he buried Danny here in the land of his boyhood dreams, Roy Essoyan went to his typewrit er and wrote the saddest obituary of his newspaper career: 'This is a tribute to the most wonderful boy in the world, my son. He was unique, as every boy Is unique. . for each is the most wonderful child in the world. The great outdoors was his playground and the blue Pacific his swimming pool. He loved to romp In the surf. He was shy and slim but strong-chested and deep ly tanned. Danny spent his first couple of dsys in New York City riding up and down the hotel elevator, mak ing friends with the bellboys, run ning errands for his mother and baby sister, Cntherine. "He explored the 5-and-lO-cent stores, the Central Park Zoo, the busy streets near the hotel. He went to the Museum of Natural History twice and wandered open mouthed around the Hayden Plan- etarlum. He went with us to the musical, 'Silk Stockings,' a special treat, and stood agog at Times square at midnight. - 'At times he baby-sat for Cath erine, changed her diapers and helped feed her. He took time out from all the exciting things he hnd to do to play with her. "Danny went to Rockefeller Plaza, rode the subway and the Staten Island ferry, saw the Sta tue of Liberty and walked down Fifth Avenue.

Now the one has been used. The Italian government wanted him returned there lo lace trlnl for murder. A U. S. court ruled .he could not be forced to go. An Ital ian court tried him without his be ing mere and sentenced him to life imprisonment. Its a sentence he will never have to serve unless he returns to Italv. Icardl. who all along has said he's Uinocent, seemed sale from trinl. But now a federal grand Jury has chnrged him with committing perjury in testimony about the death of his wartime commanding oincer, MaJ. William Holohan. But. Ironically, the government can't prove he lied on these chnrgea unless it Implicates him in Holohans slnylng The worst punishment he faces is Jnll lor perjury, not murder.

Then he went with us for a drive to Sagamore Hill, President Theodore Roosevelt's old home. When we came back, he said he had a sore throat and a head ache. He took an aspirin and went to bed. He had some temperature, but not enough to mar his usual cheerful singsong bedtime ritual. Good night, sleep tight, don t let the bedbugs bite, wake up in the morning bright.1 The next morning his fever was worse, but he looked out tne win dow and asked If he could go out side and play soon. An hour later, in the ambulance on the way to the hospital, Danny's life came to its unbelievably early end. Prac tically before we had time to be frightened. Danny and all the hopes and dreams that Danny was were gone. Dannv lived always in the Im mediate future. What he could do tonight, where he could go tomor row, what did we plan next weeK.

This column has carried the re action of W. E. Hamilton, director of research of the American Farm Bureau Federation toward this pro posal. Since the Farm Bureau is considered to be the conservative side of the agricultural voice in America we have seen that farm ers in this group are interested in the leagues proposal, mow we might turn to the other side of the larm movement and see the re action ol another group ol farm leadership as represented by the National Farmers Union. The National Farmers Union was Invited by the Izaak Walton League to' crillcize the Wallon Soil Plan at the Izaak Walton League Con vention in Chicago this year and the National Farmers Union tent to Mr. Uus Geissler, assistant to Its president, to say some words on the subject. Geissler adds some interesting points of criticism to .1.- nl hie tliinlr- Z isluraVeTlmrfroml the Farm Bureau. "I do want to congratulate the Izaak Walton League and parti cularly its Land Use Committee for the kind of a job they did in developing this Walton Plan. I think that there are certain de tailed aspects of it that I would not agree with. I thini they are mostly mechanical. These are ob- j lections personally based upon my many years of experience in agn- cultural program work. We do agree with the basic objectives and the basic approach to what Ihe Izaak Walton League is trying to get at in this proposal. One reason I think this an ex cellent proposal in many respects is the fact that the predominant feature of it is conservation of soil and water resources. I have worked with farm people and on farm people, met with them and talked with them in the last 20 or 25 years in every state in the Unit ed States and often have discussed this matter ol conservation ol soil and water resources. I have dis cussed other aspects of farm pol- "Who wouldn't want a finer milk if it costs less ?"

But I have almost unanimously found agreement on the proposal of soil and water conservation. "Now there may be some differ ences of opinion as to bow the mechanics of that should be op erated or what kind of program it should be, but by snd large farm people and non - farm people throughout the entire United Slates ore In favor of conserving our soil and water resources. "I think." continues Geissler. "the Izaak Walton League has hit upon a happy circumstance of having found a common denomin ator in agricultural debate about which there is very littie debale and from there you can take off and probably find more common understanding on the other aspects of what farm policy should be. I think that is good. "The conservation of soil and water resources goes into many facets. First, and most important, of course, back of this whole idea of conservation of soil and water resources are people themselves' those 160 million people In this country today, the 200 million that we wiil probably have here In 1975, and so on down the road. The way - e take care Productive caps. city and the productive resources we have in Ihis country is going to determine how well future genera tions are going to eat in this coun try. For that reason all of us arc Interested not Just farm people. I Ihink non-farm people are just as interested in that because they are Just as interested in the welfare of future generations. So the most im portant aspect of it, of course, is people. "But you can go off on many other facets to contributory ben efits lrom this. For example, the Izaak Walton League is interested in many aspects of wildlife.
