It is not an ordinary zoo. It is in the literal sense a garden, with more than 200 acres of mesa and canyon lands iniormally land scaped with semi-tropical shrubs and trees in the midst of a 1,400 acre park. Nearly 4.000 specimens of birds, mammals and reptiles are shown in the park, one of the largest collections in existence. In addition to the main zoo, there is also a a children's section especially tailored for the small fry, but which invariably captures the in terest of the adults as well. A stroll through the zoological gardens, at least an hour's hike, will reveal numerous Inrms of ani mal life exhibited in no other zoo. There is the engaging Koala bear from Australia, shown in this country only at the San Diego Zoo logical Gardens. Another feature attraction is the strange New Zea land mountain parrot known as a kea. The first successful captive breeding in the United States of this bird was achieved this year in the San Diego Zoo. A proboscis monkey named Cy rano is the only monkey of his species ever displayed in the West crn Hemisphere. Ane he has set a record for the longest time this rare species has ever been held in captivity, more than two and one half years. There are always newcomers to the zoo. Some of the latest include a snow leopard, a pair of bactrain camels, a young striped hyena from India and a pair of lesser pandas. And there is a trained staff to care for the babies that are born each year as well as make sure the old-timers arc kept in top con dit ion. Just one example of the feeding problems encountered in such an operation is the fact that the zoo raises about 0,000 mice and rats each year to satisfy the fin lcky apclitcs of reptiles. A mice diet is credited with allowing the zoo's two-headed snake to reach maturity. An estimated one and one hall million visitors go through the zoological gardens each year. W hich just goes to show that young sters and oldsters alike enjoy the entertaining and unusual sights in a zoo. Particularly a zoo that has made a reputation for itself ns one of the finest m the world. widower ol a woman veteran w"T)jjisi I'usilliJ litis nui leuictiiieu mdy iclchi' VA death benelits if he is incap able of sell-maintenance and, at the time of his wife's death, was permanently incapable of self-support because of physical or mental disability.

MULLIGAN NEW YORK (AP)-Whilc men dally in barber chairs over male magazine articles on fly-ticing, rhinoceros hunting and love along the lower Zambeze, their wives arc at the beauty parlor digesting the insidious innards of the wom en s magazines. In Iho' never-cold war between the sexes, this is like pitting the Golden Books for children against the latest training manuals of the Army War College. The men's periodicals are for escape and relaxation; the wom en's for deadly serious strategy and ultimate conquest. What chance does a full-page picture pullout of Anita Ekberg have against a whole phalanx of morally indignant clergymen, psy chintrists and marriage counse lors armed to the teeth with handy hints on how to keep the male animal at bay, bring him In heel and keep him from scratch ing Ihe furniture? "Are women behind political ly?" "How to talk to husbands.'' "Faced with infidelity, what can the wise wife do?" "Handling al coholic husbands." "Can this mar riage be saved?" "84 ways to make your marriage more excit ing." These are just a few article titles culled from recent issues of arsenals of feminine aggression. By comparison, the average man's magazine is as toothless as a lion on the library lawn. The inflammatory (odder fed female readers almost invariably starts with the premise that her husband Is at heart a harmless. frisky oaf, given to shedding hair and harking too loud, who can be curried and combed, taught a few tricks, but never will emerge jun ior grand champion. The whole idea is for Ihe suffering spouse to learn lo live with the lout . once he's been taught to obey his mas ter, of course. The frightening thing is that al most all these articles are wriltcn by men.

William Ploulhnor, a vice president at Bat ten, Barton, Dursline & Oshorn. Here, ns number in the article, ire some suggestions for hus bands: 1, Kiss the back of your wile's neck once a day. 2.

Any guy who goes around with a beard, crying, and kissing his wife's neck is bound lo get shut on long oeiore I no hour is up at any party I've ever been lo.

Wipe 'em off with an oily rag every morning." That sort of wisdom ought to till llm odds bark in our direction a htile. By WILLIAM L. RYAN AP News Analyst WASHINGTON (API - It will be a remarkable thing if the Com munistswith all the initiative in their hands permit any rest for U.S. policy in the Far East. But the possibility by no means can be ruled out. Already there are indications Moscow anticipates a gradual easing of the Far East crisis. The Soviets seem to he prepar ing for that, getting ready to swing the spotlight slowly back again to the Middle East. The Communists do not have control over the rise and fall ol crises in the Arab East. Their mode of operation there is to take fullest advantage of crises which do arise. The Communists do have con trol over the Formosa crisis. When they want to start it going, they have only to order the shoot ing to begin. When they want it cased, they have only to ease off the shooting. By pouring on pressure now, the Red Chinese might logically hope to wrest at least the offshore islands from the Nationalists. The United States clearly does not want lo go to war over the islands. But there are a number of ele ments in the crisis which can spell danger to the Communists them selves. Not the least of these elements is the possibility that the situation can damage relations between Moscow and Red China. In an aside at his Wednesday news conference, President Eisen hower wondered why, if the Nationalist-Communist strife was really civil war, Soviet boss Khrushchev should say the Soviet Union might participate in that war. However, Khrushchev has seemed rather anxious lo. avoid giving the impression the Soviets would join Red China in a war on the Nationalist Formosa regime. lie said an attack hy another pow er on Red China would he consid ered an attack on Ihe U.S.S.R. The Peiping-Moscow treaty requires that. Moscow probably would be un willing lo underwrite a real risk of war between Red China and Ihe United Stales. The Soviets, however, still arc ill a position to persuade the Red Chinese to ease the crisis. Without Soviet help. lied China would find a long-sus tained shelling of the offshore is lands (now in its' second month) :tn expensive proposition. The Middle East oflers a more fertile field for Communist en deavors. There the Soviets are not directly involved. They can keep their own situation relatively se cure. And Ihe Middle East does not raise the problem of aggrava tions between the two big Commu nist allies. American and British troop with drawals (rom Lebanon and Jor dan may be a signal for the So viets to concentrate the lion's share of their attention on Ihe Arabs once again, for good rea sons. When Britain leaves Jordan. there's a good chance of a new Holy Land explosion. When the Americans leave Lebanon, a gov ernment which for all practical purposes ,s a revolutionary re gime, will he in control. There are evidences of a tug-ol-war lor power inside Iraq's rev olutionary regime. The oil of Ku wait is of enormous economic im portance to Britain, and the Brit ish will fight hard if Arab nation alist pressures threaten their pros ence in the little Persian Gull sheikdom. Soviet Foreign Minister Gro- myko apparently caught the sig-nificar-o of a single little word in the announcement of Britain's withdrawl plans. She would, said Britain, "begin" the withdrawal Oct. 20. In a U.N. speech, Gro myko called it stalling. It's likely to be a slow and re luctant withdrawal, far too slow lo suit the Soviets. Moscow hopes to apply the heat in the iMiddle East. The new explosion there, which by present indications could come some time around the turn of the year, cannot arrive too soon for Moscow. It oiid l osls Butte Falls (To The Editor) I'm certain you do not understand my motivation in regard to the letter to you for publication in your paper. I think most of us, who live back in the hills, are not asking for a road such as you obviously were referring to. I'm certain it costs much less than S400.000 to build one mile of road one can drive over without bounc ing a truck-bed off the frame (in spite of U and other types of bolls). If you wish to check into the matter and get another viewpoint, I'd like you to accept my offer of a ride over at least one ex ample of our roads, the sort which I was making reference too. (True, this is outside Klamath County but I imagine you have the same problem in Klamath County also). I have engineering experience, limited though it may be, and feel qualified to state that the entire road from the town of Butte Falls to the Klamath County line could be brought up to reasonable stan dards for the sum of much less than $400,000 . . . and inasmuch as you have been elected chair man of the advisory committee of the Slate Highway Department I'd strongly advise you to accept my invitation as outlined above. It appears that, among those who apportion tax moneys for road building, Ihere are many who apparently feci that "anything is good enough for those hillbillies" and you quite possibly could help to get more of Ihe tax money put lo the improvement of the moun tain roads. In fact your position, in my opinion, makes it almost com pulsory. Floyd R. McCabe Pogo s sr C4 US ce fun ur--'j A BMHOAV iCwtTMTW. TH6.vO.TH.; WAWOTHBI 1 l -rv v. UA? A COS CCS.

He also has a huge bellyache about Oregon roads, which is as tar from true as it is possible to get, 1 have traveled the state ol California over most of its roads and highways and there have been limes when our four wheel drive vomited water and steam Irom trying lo negotiate some of those same perfect roads so we feel that he is in slight error regarding our roads as well as being lost in a maze of misunderstanding that even a school child who has never been away from home or studied this subject could possibly, miss the boat as far as brother McCabe. Ihere is not a man. woman or child in the state of Oregon who does not benelit from the tourist dollar. Tourists are very much like other people, in this respect at least. They all wear clothes, cat tood, buy shoes, attend theaters, drink bourbon, rye or scotch or wine and the kids eat ice cream and drink pop. buy toys and hula hoops. They put money in circula tion the same as our friend Mc Cabe and the people who run the various enterprises hire other peo ple to wait on these same tourists, and these clerks spend Ihe money they gel buying the things they in urn need so that little old round lollar as it rolls, rubs off a little on guys like Mr. McCabe who no doubt works for a living and some of this money comes indirectly to him as well as the folks who meet tnd serve the tourist directly. Every dollar regardless of who spends it in this state, benefits iy ill and while we may not like tour ists at least let's not be dogs in the mnnger and bite 'em when their backs aie turned. And as for California, every gal lon of gas one buys in that state is taxed by the stale by the city and by the government as is prac tically everything one buys their auto tax or hcenve it about douhlc ours and if one bu n stores there one pays state and ci'y tax on the htito M mil w iiM Mr. McCaVa's vita h. i an et pt uutiui mu 'n ai t fc tm f B to?$ they'll Do It Every Time By Jimmy Hatlo ' IMF TVIIMrt TVUT SOLD THE CRUDNEY5 ON THEIR NEW HOUSE WAS .THE FACT 7H4T IT v4s right on THE BEE-YOOT-EEE FUL GULF ,x pgW 4MO LOOK YX umFiJ WILL ' WSi GOnOEOUS in r-, I- A kl If nU I W J. lYIUrVt- f VIEW-1 uo," 1 "', u-c THE DOWN ''U -'- HiriT T" J MORE LMDS E B-BUT-THEY W OP Fit-L"- .MClHECMTOR SmTO ' xrrT Jfrl ax NEW STREETS ELL THEY'RE JUST SETTLED NOW- BUT THE POWERS TH4T BE H4VE OTHER PL4NSv tujnx ahoa tip of the h4tlo hat to Curtis c.
