Ranger Tells Restrictions YREKA Fire restrictions on Klamath National Forest lands went into effect on July 1, accord ing to C. A.

Persons riding mo torcycles or in the back of trucks or riding horseback may not smoke while the vehicle or animal is in motion, said Yates. Fire danger was experienced early in May, but fire danger was lowered during wet weather in June. The unusual amount of mois ture has produced an abundant crop of grass, Yates commented, which creates a high fire hazard when it is dry. He recommends that all dry grass be removed from around residences and outdoor in cinerators and that extreme cau tion be exercised when amoking. 12-Foot Totem Pole Swiped In Portland PORTLAND (AP) A 12-fnot high totem pole that weighs some 700 pounds is missinff from' the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry here.
