First night out on this here now
talari was spent at the pleasant
little town of Elko, Nevada. Con
trary to our usual practice and in
the firm belief that we'd have no
trouble, we just drove blithely in,
only to find that reservations were
scarcer than hen's teeth. Finally,
after some very useful help from
one motel operator, we were com
fortably put up at another unit a
little farther down the street.
Elko, as you probably know, is
the very heart of the Bing Crosby
country. Everywhere you turn you
see pictures of the famous crooner,
and talk of his holdings, his hospi
tality and his visits is heard on
every side. The town, which is typ
ical of most Nevada towns that lie
on the desert reaches, has broad
streets cut by indeterminate wan
rierinc little alleys and sideroads,
few trees but a general air of
scrubbed and almost painful neat
ness. In all probability this is the
result of wind rather than any
community elbow grease.
Quite a little dcvclpment is go'
ing on in one of the hilltop resi
dential developments, and I no

church done in the modern decor
Six out of ten homes are coiv
structed of brick. Downtown appli
ance stores, furniture shops, office
supply outlets and saddle makers
jostle emow to eiDOw 10 casinos,
bars and motels.
To the casual tourist, It seems
that in Elko everyone you see is
Irvine to look like either a ranch
owner, a professional gambler or a
movie star. The dress is casual to
the point of absurdity. This year
the dude fashion seems to be to
wear the pants tucked inside tho
boots, not outside. I also seem to
notice a trend away from the flat
heeled or so-called walking boot of
cowboy footgear and a return to
the hifih spike heel.
Lois of big deer noticed on car
racks and hanging out the back
end of pickups. It looks like Nevada
has had a good season. Missed the
duck hunters, though. There just
doesn't seem to be any duck or
goose hunting in this country,
Up the next morning and into the
Ranchinn where over coffee we
ran into a fellow by the name of
Jack Nelson who owns and operates
through the agency of his sons the
Nelson Meat Company of San Jose,
California. Jack, who was leaving
that night to fly to San Jose to
observe his 501 h wedding anniver
sary, tells me ho used to be a cat
fic wishing to move up Upham
would have to come to a complete
stop.
Requests were received mat tne
stop sign be removed. This was
arranged for.
However, this apparently did not
meet the protests because Friday
morning Mayor Lawrence Slater
received a petition signed by some
202 persons residing in the area to
be affected, asking that the proj
ect be abandoned.
In accordance with the petition.
Mayor Slater in consultation with
F. B. Crandall, traffic engineer tor
the State Highway Department,
ordered the project abandoned.
and what has been built will be
torn out.
However, I don't think the proj-
problem such as there appears to
be at this corner. Traffic destined
for Upham Street has to run
hazard in coming across Oregon
Avenue.
I agree with the protesters that
the island as it was to be built did
not solve the problem. It
merely have created additional
traffic hazards. This particular
spot with the sharp incline creates
plenty of hazards in ice and snow
weather.
However, I don't think the proj
ect should be abandoned complete
ly. I do think that a careful study
of the corner will give engineers
the right design idea. The island
should be mainly for the protection
of traffic leaving and entering Up
ham Street into Oregon Avenue.
A smaller island just past the
Upham Street entrance that would
give downhill bound traffic protec
tion until they reached the three
way corner would help some. The
other side of the island should
permit passage of traffic coming
off Oregon Avenue, or going from
Upham onto Oregon Avenue.
The tragedy of the situation is
that now the island idea at this
point will probably be completely
abandoned because certainly none
of the council wish to tackle the
problem again in view of the
heavy protests. By the same
token, the State Highway Depart
ment will not be interested again
in tackling the problem.
Let's hold up the project until it
can be reappraised and some of
the quirks taken out of it , , ,
let'i not abandon it.

Out of Elko alter a leisurely
breakfast, where we drove o u t
across the desert toward Wells.
This is pretty high desert country
where occasionally you run into
little arms of cedar and juniper
ttrelching down off the hills. In
ne such place near an almost
impossible rock cut, a large herd
of deer, including one set of horns,
ran across the highway in front
of us and scrambled up the prac
tically perpendicular walls only to
pause and peer down at us from
their sale aerie.

Contusion exists at tho corner of

Several weeks aqii Hie city coun

be constructed at the corner to
provide safety for pedestrians as

Highway Department, tlu-tr engi

Byrd and Morse took the min

third of the roll calls where bi
partisan majorities agreed, accord

The analysis was based on 69
Senate and 41 House roll calls on
which a majority of voting Demo
crats and Republicans took the
same position.
Byrd bucked bipartisan majori

3'2 per cent. Lending dissenters

Fifty-three per cent of the 1957
roll calls were bipartisan votes,

was well below the 1955 level of

bipartisan support and opposition

the typical Democratic Senator's 70

Food lleport

NEW YORK (UP) Woman's
insatiable curiosity leads her to
read the recipes on food pack
ages. But it doesn't always tease
her into trying them.
Matter of fact, it sometimes just
sets her to nagging the food in
duslry.
One of the more persistent com
olaints is against the manufactur

servings in the package, com

"My fellow, when he passes his

The New York industrial design
