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-

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 goal: to slow down the In

kinds which proceeded at a rapid
rate In the first eight months ol

The debt total has been growing
In 1Mb st an annual rate of almost
SO billion dollars. The Federal deb;
hasn't swelled much this year. But
ttte snd local government debt,
corporate debt, mortgage and con
sumer debt hive been mnklnr
notable gains.

will work, I'm sure, and I'm equal
ly sure that the local people will
express their feelings by turning
out for the games.
The schedule at present calls for
the Lions Club to sponsor the first
game on September 24 when Se
attle comes down to tangle with
the Owls. 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.
There are two more games
scheduled. Southern Oregon Col

HAL BOYLE
NEW YORK tin For as long
as he could remember, 11-year-old
Danny Essoyan dreamed of seeing
America.
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.

This column has carried the re

considered to be the conservative
side of the agricultural voice in
America we have seen that farm

"I do want to congratulate the

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

But I have almost unanimously
found agreement on the proposal
of soil and water conservation.

should be, but by snd large farm

"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'
