Timber Extraction Studied By Pakistan Forest Worker By LAMAR HOOVER try from Daccan University in Pak A guest in the Klamath Falls! id upon eng me for area for the past few days has been Muhammed Atiqullah. a mem ber of the Pakistan Forest Service, who is spending 10 months in the United States, studying the mech anical extraction of timber. Atiqullah has been visiting var ious Oregon districts of the U.S. Forest Service since completing six months' study at Oregon State College. He came to the Klamath District of the Rogue River Na tinnal Forest Monday, and left for Grants Pass and Siskiyou Nation al Forest Friday. His study in this country is made possible by the International Cooperation Adminis tration. , The visitor graduated in chemis- Passing Ship Spots Lehi IV ". LONG BEACH, Calif. (UPI) The four-man crew aboard the raft Lehi IV was reported safe Saturday, ending a 20 - day silence that caused concern (or the men on their d r i f t ing voyage to Hawaii.

American Baptist Church Altamont Junior Hiqh est service seven years ago, was sent back to the same university to attend forest college for two years. He has worked mostly in East Pakistan, the forests of which present some problems not like ly to be encountered in America For example, these Asian forests abound not only in deer, but also in wild elephants and tigers as well as snakes, which are frequent ly cobras Oregon can at least claim to have a few rattlers, which are dangerous enough but they're not quite in a class with the cobra "Have you ever heard of a per son s surviving a cobra bite? At iqullah was asked. "No, I never heard of one," he replied. The tropical forests of Pakistan originally contained many ever green trees, but a gradual transi tion to convert these forests to large scale teak plantations was begun in 1870, and is still under way. Teak is a very hard and easily worked wood, which is in great demand in the Far East Another exotic aspect of Pakis tan's forests is that the bulk of the work is done by elephant pow er and manpower. The Pakistan Forest Service now has a few tractors, and Atiqullah is the third forester from that country to be trained in mechani cal operations in the United states He will be put in a supervisory po sition upon his return home. Other technical assistance trom this country to Pakistan includes sending U.S. foresters there. Chief among these is George Spaur, for mer Oregon State fprester, who heads a small mission. Atiqullah has seen various ma chines in operation during his vis- here and has also studied the district's forestry inventory meth ods, but a visit to Crater Lake un doubtedly produced the strongest impression on nun. "We have nothing quite like that in Pakistan." he said. Darrel K. Frewing. local district ranger, who has been Atiqullah's host during his visit here, said that the visitor would soon go to oth er national forests in California and then take a course in equipment maintenance in San Francisco be fore going on to Washington en route home.

His fellow employs feted him with a banquet Tuesday night at the Pioneer Inn and presented nun with a gitt. Absence Makes Heart Fond Of Some Things Such As TV By CHARLES MERCER NEW YORK (AP) Absence may not make the heart grow fonder, but it does make you ap preciate some things. Returning home recently after being almost two months in Eng land, Scotland and France. I found that among the things I appreci ated was and don't smile my television set. Mind you, I don't appreciate much in the way of programs ap pearing on the set in this deadly dull summer season. But I do ap preciate the thorough and absorb ing way the networks have been reporting the news in these recent days of crisis. News from an American view point is something an American or at least this American misses most in Europe. In the larger cit ies, thank heaven, the Paris Trib une or an air mail edition of the New York Times usually is avail able. But we always seemed to be somewhere far back in the hills when the hunger for news assailed us. There are some excellent news papers published in Britain and P'rance. The Manchester Guardi an, to name one, penetrates to the remotest hamlets. But there are days when the Guardian fcejs there s nothing of much signifi cance to its readers happening in America. The editors forgot that two of the Guardian's readers in cluded my wife and me. The same situation confronts news-hungry American tourists who listen to BBC radio news. When we were most interested in hearing about the activities of an American named Bernard Gold fine. BBC radio seemed most in terested in the fact that Queen r.iutueui 11 was Kumg iu visu a I A- D.;,;ru 1 know their readers interests, so does BBC knows the interests of its listeners except for my wife and me. Returning home and turning on the television set at the height of the Middle East crisis, I had a news appreciation of something I d forgotten. American television when it tries is a great medi um for keeping one informed, with absorption, about this cock eyed world. The most cheering thing about this medium of television in some time was the way all three net works shucked out "entertain ment" programs left and right on several occasions to focus on Unit ed Nations sessions and other places that are of vital concern to everyone. Travel is enlightening. But if you stay home, television when it tries can bring the world right over your doorstep. f V& est SST 3p I "DENNIS THE MENACE"' KLAMATH FALLS TO LAS VEGAS Publicity concerning the contest for the choice of Mfss Babe Ruth of 1958, who will reign over the Pacific Northwest Regional tourna ment starting here, August 6, has spread as far as Las Vegas.

Now comes another who is un happy and his series hasn't even started. George Montgom ery, veteran of many a gunfight, signed to head the new hourlong series, Cimarron City. But he in dicated his displeasure. 'When we started out, I said I didn't know what we were aiming for with my character, he re marked. "They told me it took a few shows before things settled down. But after five or six of them, I still couldn't figure out what direction 1 was supposed to be going. I'm getting pretty fed up." George hung up his six-shooters to join the MGM safari on "Re turn to King Solomon's Mines." When he finishes, he aims to have little safari of his own. Plans to take his ever-lovin' Dinah Shore and their children for a camping trip to Yosemitc. After that, he may shoot it out with the villains or the pro ducers of Cimarron City. . . .

By BOB THOMAS AP Motion Picture Writer HOLLYWOOD (AP) Four years ago, Pat Boone and his wife Shirley were living in a 24-room apartment in Denton, Tex., while he went to college. The rental $o0 a month. Today, the Boones and their four daughters are renting a Bel Air mansion which they have been told cost $800,000 when it was built in 1934. Complete with marble halls and a tremendous swimming pool, it has more rooms than they can count. The place has been used by many distinguished visi tors, including Prince Rainier when he was here courting Grace Kelly. No, our boy Pat hasn't gone Hollywood, though he may be liv ing like a prince. He still has his white buckskin shoes on the ground, but he's also enjoying some ot tne lruils of his amaz ing success. Amazing is right. His record sales have been fantastic, with one release alter another going over tne million mark. Starting with Arthur Godfrey and now with his own show, he has been a hit on television. Though only one of his pictures had been in release, he was named the No. 3 start at the hnx office, behind Rock Hudson and John Wayne, but ahead of Elvis Presley and Frank Sinatra. He's now making his third film, "Mar di Gras." Pat would like to settle out here, but he can't as yet. "ABC doesn't have the facilities to do my show here," he ex plained. "So we'll have to go back to New York in the fall. But they're building a new studio, and we'll probably return in January or so. My oldest daughter will be starting school, and then it'll be time to settle down in California." FILM CLOSKS CHICAGO AP' - The movie "The Fly" has closed a run at the Bucg Theater. Truck Driver Seeks New Job HAPPY CAMP-Ronald L. Sova decided not to push his luck any further after a narrow escape July 28 at 7:10 p.m. and he has vowed not to drive another logging truck. A brake failure on the truck he was driving down the Indian Creek Road made it impossible to ne gotiate the turn on the Davis Road in Happy Camp. Seven logs rolled off the trailer knocking down a power line, fire hydrant and a section of fence on Life is a bit simpler for Pat now that he has finally graduated from college. "Shirley has been very patient with me, and now I've got some time to devote to the family, he said. "The only trouble is that it gets more difficult to take them anywhere in public. For instance, last Christmas he tried to take two of his daughters to see Santa Claus in 8 Hacken sack, N.J., department store. Ev erything was fine until the girls balked at approaching the jolly old fellow. They drew the atten tion of other shoppers, who recog nized Pat. He spent half an hour signing autographs.

All department personnel connected with its brand inspec tion program will attend. The "school" is divided into two sessions so that brand inspection services will be in operation through the state while the meet ing is being held. The first ses sion opens Wednesday afternoon and closes Friday noon; the sec ond session ends Sunday noon. Be tween sessions, the state livestock advisory committee will be in ses sion. The program will feature discus sions by department personnel on brand inspection, livestock licens ing and herd law, the disease con trol and meat inspection programs, estrays, road checks, brand re cording and forms, livestock weighing, evidence for court cases and public relations. These topics are in line with the purpose of the conference to keep personnel imormea ot new de velopments in their field and to promote uniformity and efficiency in me various pnases of brand in spection work. Guy Woodworth, livestock offi cer from Beaverton, heads the pro gram committee for the conference. Robert J. Steward, director of agriculture, and M. E. Knicker bocker, chief of the department's division of animal industry, will speak at the conference, as will Jerry Mulcahy of Olympia, Wash- and Post Office Plans Survey The Post Office Department, now collecting more money for its stamps, plans to see what it can do about improving its services. The department plans a nation wide survey, which very probably will include Klamath Falls, to determine: 1. Whether Its windows should be open earlier or later than they are now. 2. Whether there are enough daily collections from corner mail boxes. The surveys are to be started as soon as possible and are to last 90 days, the department an nounced today in Washington. Postmaster General Arthur Sum merfield also noted that the de partment initiated some improve ments at the same time postal rates went up Friday. These in cluded acceptance of small par cels up to 16 ounces at low third class rates (instead of the maxi mum eight ounces previously ac cepted) and the addition of phono graph recordings, music and man uscripts at book rates. Another new law permits post offices to forward mail with insuf ficient postage and collect postage due from the addressee. Previous ly, underpaid mail frequently was returned to the sender for addition al postage rather than forwarded as postage due.
