OLD RIPER- JEV VT-T TC- ivy v M Henry Sciiioii By FLOYD L. WYNNE What is the stature of a man? Is it his mind, his body, his ca pacity for joy and sorrow, love and hate? Is it the friends who mourn when his sojourn through this vale has ended? Is it the loved ones of his seed that he leaves behind? Is it his lands, his money, his possessions? Is it the thinss he said, the things h9 didn't say? Is it the things be did, or did not do? Or is it the imprint of all these combined that his passing has left for those who follow? All of these things measure the stature of a man? All of these measuce well the stature of Henry Sctnon. Hank spent 48 years of his life in Klamath County, coming here at the age of 2li. Half of those 48 years were spent in service dedicated to making the world a better place to live. Half of those years were spent unsel fishly, happily in the service of his community in the State Leg islalure. Here, as everywhere, Hank built a solid reputation as a man who weighed all things carefully and well for ils c licet on all the people, not the few, He scorned parly lines and Tor him the only parly was the parly of the people. In countless ways, Henry helped mold the Klamath County of today from the clay of yesterday. He was a man who knew the joy of a job well done. He knew the satisfaction of accomplishment, savored the role of pioneer in sev eral liclds, and rejoiced in the friendship of his fcllowman. For him, lile was fruitful and full. His passing leaves sorrow and sadness. He served his community his fellowmen faithfully and well. It is given In all men to die. It is given only to a giltcd few to leave behind them an indelible legacy that will continue to shape the dreams and the destiny ot the community in which those gifted few built their lives deed by deed, day by day. No greater tribute can be said than that those who knew Henry Semon were far richer for thai experience. lieu III IV'iijiII.v Ry FLORENCE JENKINS Most ol us think we have strong cr convictions than we actually have. The volers of Oregon arc going lo he asked to express an opinion on one very vilnl issue at the November 4 general election. That issue is presented as an amend ment to the state constitution, re pealing the death penally in this stale. In April, 1!IS7, the Oregon Legis lature voted to prefer this question to the proplo of the state. The issue is not in dispute lie tween the two candidates for gov ernor and seems to have received very little political attention. A state committee, seeking the passage of the amendment, has been lorined in Portland. The growing list of sponsors contains names uf leaders in religious, edu cational and oilier professional fields who are willing lo have their names associated with a move ment about which (hey leel deeply. Their tact sheet relates that i in state of Oregon abolished capital punishment in Oregon in l!H and restored it in 1920. Fifly-seu-n exe cutions lor minder have taken place in Oregon since l:io.l. Under the present law, ilu crimes of lirst degree murder and treason are punishable by death in Oregon. If t he repeal amend ment passes, Ils proponents say the death penalty may slill be in voked in casei of murders com mitted by persons serving life sen tence and lor treason. First degree murder would be punished by life imprisonment. Repeal of the death penalty would set the dale ol possible paiole lor a person convicted ol minder alter a minimum of lilteen years. At present, no one seising a hie sentence lor minder is eli gible lor paiole until seven years have been served. The average actual lime served has been esti mated at about twelve years under the present law. One statement in the fact sheet stands out: "Not one murderer released on parole in Oregon has been recom mitted for a crime of violence." How ling Hy SAUL I'F.TT NEW MIRK (APi-1 have Ink en up bowling. I do not particulaily like howl ing. but my boss docs. So I haw ta)en iv bowling, jjyjrtk t Celt UC-.-A ,.!! ot that creeping paralysis ol American independence known as togetherness. In bowling, the dis ease is carried to the ultimate Friends bowl together. Enemies bowl together. Management and labor bowl together. Remember when we were a na tion of individualists? When a man took up a sport to get away from it all and to refuel his soul in the flories of nature? When he went olf, like a man, to sit on the bank of a stream, to fish, to dream, to find himself, to find a perspective about the people he was escaping his wife, his kids, his boss. Now we all bowl together. And this is called healthful exercise, exhilarating and relaxing. We bowl in a sweaty smoke-filled room, where there is no natural light, no natural air, and you have a grand view of a wall. Relaxing? 11 has all the serenity of a shoot ing gallery. It brings out the worst in people. The women wear toreador pants. This tends to narrow them on the top and widen them in the middle, with a Freudian subcon scious wish to look like bowling pins. The men wear slocks and frown. I almost never saw a bowl cr who wasn't frowning. They lake the game that seriously. The good ones even after a strike come back lo the bench frowning lo let the rest of the team know they are continually aware of I heir responsibility to be good. The bad bowlers frown under the weight of their enormous guilt complex; they are Idling their Icam down, which in some cases can mean Iheir department or the whole company they're working for. And llius vice president and sec retary, man and wite, boss and slave find yet another bond in to gethernessulcers. You see the worst physical tor tures in howling alleys, especially as the bowler tries to keep from tottering over the foul line. He ties himself up in the air like Ni jinsky in a ballet ot demented an chovies. And then the poor tool falls over the foul line, and bells ring, and red lights flash, and you'd think the FBI had just nabbed Khrushchev slipping ba nana peels on the launching pad at Cape Canaveral. You see the worst menial tor tures in bowling alleys. An 180 howler bowls Oil, and he blames it on the fact that a woman three alleys away was whispering, lie heard her in all that noise. Or he blames it on light shoes, dust on the ball, or a speck of towel lint on Hie floor. Another man throws his ball im mediately into the sutler a wood en ditch from which there is no return. His ball siarls there, and it ends there in the gutter and he has no one to blame hut him self. But he comes back to the bench convinced he was robbed. All of us bowlers are completely miserable. Bui we do have our togetherness. taste buds of the master. Mozart Toscanini and Spike Jones have been known to treat an overdone breast of partridge with the scorn reserved for a squeaky chair be neath the first violin. Although carrier class divas have disappeared from the stage of the Metropolitan and today's reigning prima donnas prepare for a concert by trilling off a few pounds at the nearest slender izing salon, good eating without recourse to calorie counting has not gone out of fashion in the mu sic world. Tenor James Melton, for in stance, when not fiddling with old cars, loves to lay in a cargo of risotto Melton, a sautecd smorgas bord compounded of parmesan cheese, chicken broth, long-grain rice, creamy butter and a pinch of saffron. Rise Stevens, certainly one of the comcliest Carmens in opera history, goes straight from Bizet's bullring to a bout with szegediner gulyas, an Austrian sauerkraut dish that starts out with two pounds of beef, veal and pork and goes up the supermarket scale from there.

There is a simple reason, a psychologist says the cruel world has denied them the chance o manipulate love, career or stat us In other vital things to Iheir ab solute liking. And the psychologist who has documented this explanation adds: "The persons who overeat des perately need to have ultimate conlrol over their environment. They are the positive kind of hu man being. "Eating is the only part of the environment in which they can be absolute dictators. They don't need (be cooperation of other persons lo gain satisfaction. And they can turn it on or olf at will." Psychologist Paul Fine bases these observations on a continuing probe into the nation's caling hab its. The study, by the Center For Research In Marketing, a motiva tional research factory in Peeks kill. New York, has been in prog ress for a year. Tile 4IKI subjects being studied represent a scientitic cross-section ol the nation. That is. they are white collar, blue collar, male, female, old, middle-aged, adolescent and pint sized human beings subjected to the stresses and strains ol-living. The need to control something by yourself is staggering, appar enllv. Based on preliminary find- ings, Fine believes that the excess poundage problem, like the na tional deficit, will grow and grow When you ask these plump per sons to go on a diet, it's akin t ordering an absolute monarch off the throne. Fine suggested, add ing: "They don't want lo be told that they must surrender their right to eat what they want, when they want, and in whatever quantity suits them. Going on a diet means, he ex plained, that these persons must become passive by putting the in strument lor their satisfaction in the hands of someone else a doc tor, a nutritionist, a nagging wife, a bossy husband. "Oh, these people go on diet: now and then," he said, "but it only lasts so long. They may lose weight, but when the need to as sert can no longer be quieted, they say 'to heck with you' and start eating again." The exception lo this comes when dieting creates a new situa tion in which the person is given a chance to easily achieve success and gratification. As an example of the latter Fine cited adolescent girls who were unpopular with boys and oth er schoolmates because of plump ness. When the pounds came off, they tended to stay off if the new figure made for success in manipulating the environment. Pogo howcanowi..

But the rale at which automation and scientific research have made older machin ery obsolescent is tempting sti more companies to look into the leasing method of financing the retooling of plants with expensive but competitive machinery. Long-term equipment leasing ifor three years or morel has grown since 1950 and is now esli mated to be a 106 million dollai a year business. The present trend in business planning leads leas ing's friends lo predict it will rcacn me Dillion dollar a year mark within five years. Whole plants, or divisions or de partments are included in the ac tivity as well as special installa tions in existing setups. The tax laws enter in because high rales on company-owned equipment cut down the cost of leasing. Tax depreciation sched ules also mean that in this fast- paced age machinery may go oh solete beiore it can he written off the books. To buy Ihe new equip ment to meet competition, the treasurer must dig up new work ing capital and this has stayed pretty tight lor most companies since the war. While total net working capita has climbed lo a record IIS-1 hil lion dollars in the latest available report, the ratio of cash, govern ment securities and receivables to current debt runs at $1.20 to $1 At the end ol the war the working capital ratio was $1.55 to $1. To see what business thinking was in this Held. I he Foundation for .Management Research. Chica go, queried 1,837 companies from coast to coast. These include 44 lines of manufacturing, wholesale and retail firms, with total gross assets ot 400 million dollars. Indi vidual annual sales of the com panies range from $250,000 lo a billion dollars. The survey specifically exclud ed cars, trucks and real eslalr and any equipment leasing for less than three years. The foundation reports to the United States Leasing Corp., San Francisco, that in 11)50 only 17 of the 1.837 companies were leasing some equipment. By last year 8! were leasing equipment and 71 of these were leasing equipmeni worlh $30,000 or more. The future looks brighter. The foundation says 833. or 43 per cent, reported they are consider mg leasing in lulure. with 481'. planning to do so within five years About half plan to lease equip ment valued at more than S100. 000. The San Francisco firm inter prets the survey to mean tha while now about 2 per cent ot tola! production equipment is on a long term lease, within anolher tm years 10 ptr cent of it w ill he. The mam reason, it thinks, is that industry is more eager lo pre serve liquid working capilal an more loathe lo raise capital b diluting present ownership through the sale of more slock.

Tom Peters, full blooded Klam ath River Indian, who was em ployed as boat-man at the lodge, declared it was unsafe to venture away Irom the river's south shore anywhere between Weitchpec and Orleans. Clear Creek, a small tributary of the Klamath flowing into it from the south, opposite the fish ing lodge, was a trout stream from which a limit of 'half pound ers' could he taken easily. No In dian would venture along its banks, and the whites who did, were warned that such was dangerous.
