FRANCIS SKINNER, 4-H leader, lays, "As a leader working closely with the agencies supported by the United Fund, I am keenly aware of their needs. I've already made my pledge, but there is a need and I want to do this extra, buy ing Success Dollars. I urge everyone's support." Supervisor Tells Timber Figures "' PORTLAND 'API There are iome 22'j million hoard feet of salvage limber suitable or small sales, in- the Mt. Hood National Forest, Supervisor Ralph F. Cooke said Wednesday. Cooke said about half the 15 mil lion board feet of limber felled by strong winds Nov. 3 will be fiiarketable. The regional U. S. Forest Serv ice office ordered survey's in all 19 national forests in Oregon and Washington to check wind, fire and insect damage to trees. Bandits Escape With $250 Loot PORTLAND (AP) - Two men who held up the First Finance Corp. in Portland Wednesday es caped with $250, police said. One of the two walked up to Darlene Lowe, 18, the only clerk on duty, and said: "I hate to do this, but we want your money." The gunman took the money, then forced Miss Lowe to lie on the floor while he and his partner, who stood by the door during the robbery, fled. Mountain Sheep Dam Selected By Engineers PORTLAND (AP)-The Corps of Engineers said today it picked High Mountain Sheep Dam as the kiy structure in developing the middle stretch of the Snake River only after exhaustive study of six basic plans tor the area. Some of the plans rejected would have been too damaging lo fish runs. Others olfered less re source development. fhe full story of what the Corps of Engineers found in their three-ear-long review of the so-called 308 Report for Columbia Basin development, was presented today lo the Columbia Basin Inter agency Committee. The general outline of what the Engineers picked as the best way to develop the rivers for power, flood control and navigation, was construction of 13 dams and im proved navigational channels, all at a cost of nearly two billion dollars. ' The report; said the new addi tions to existing and authorized projects in the basin would bring an annual saving of 60 million dollars a year by 1058 in reducing steam power requirements;- would put the installed capacity of the region s power plants at 25 mil lion kilowatts; would eliminate the hazard of floods; and by im proved navigation would cut the region's transportation bill by nearly o'i million dollars a year Today Col. Allen F. Clark Jr., !oith Pacific Division engineer and two of his top aides told the details of their major water plan and why they made the decisions they did. The Inland Empire Waterways Assn., nniding Us 2.5th annual meeting here, adjourned to sit in with the CBIAC to hear the re port. G. H. Fernald, chief of the plan ning division of the North Pacilic Division, said of the Middle Snake River area that studies were Workers Aid Mongrel Dog NEW BRUNSWICK. N.J. (API Mongrel dogs don't usually at tract very much attention. But one has here. He's medium- sized, reddish brown, not especial ly distinctive and he sits quietly in a grassy strip, surrounded by roaring traffic. He s been there for about six weeks. 'The dog." as he is now called ny vomers in tne area, was abandoned at the New Brunswick traffic circle by his master. He is apparently waiting for his master to return. Food has been no problem. Em ployes of a nearby drug manufac turing firm have taken to feeding the animal. But the dog hasn't gotten friendly towards people. He isn't vicious, but he won't let anyone get close to him. When they try, he moves off. Nor has a representative of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelly lo Animals been any more successful. The animal elud ed the man Wednesday and re turned to the grassy strip afterwards. The dog sometimes trots across Route 1 to a gas station for food. If he does so today or anytime later, he may never return to h's lonely vigil. The SPCA representative left some doped meatballs at the sta tion, designed to make the dog slow enough so that he can be captured. Then, the SPCA hopes to find a new .home for the mongrel, far away from the noisy traffic circle. Monk Receives Pilot's Wings PORTLAND (AP) - A Roman Catholic Benedictine monk from the Mount Angel Abbey has re ceived his wings as a pilot, the Skyways School of Aviation said Wednesday. "I have always wanted to flv. since 1 was knee high," the Rev. Thomas Sander said after he re ceived the pilot's certificate from the Civil Aeronautics Authority. "Being a flying missionary is out of the question." Father Sand er said. "But 1 find my knowledge of flying a great help in teaching Latin and American problems to those high school kids. They think l m a nero like Wyatt Earp. made only of the "rcsourco not currently under active develop ment by the Idaho Power Co." A year ago this decision not to report on what could be done in the Hells Canyon reach of the Snake, drew fire at a hearm the review report. Sen. Wayne Morse iD-Ore', an advocate of a high federal Hells Canyon Dam. charged then that the Engineers had dipped inlo politics with that decision. "Stay in your own baili wick." he said. However, a high Hells Canyon Dam. which was part of the origi nal 308 report of the Engineers in 1!)48 but never approved hy Congress, was not mentioned in the new study. Fernald said six basic plans for Middle Snake development were these: 1. Nez Perce below the Salmon River: 2, Low Mountain Sheep and Low Pleasant Valley dams on the Snake and Lower Canyon Dam on the Salmon just above its mouth; 3, High Moun tain Sheep on the Snake jusq above the Salmon and Lower Can yon on the Salmon; 4. High Moun tain Sheep with a diversion tun nel from the Salmon River; 5. High Pleasant Valley on the Snake as contemplated by the Bureau of Reclamation: and (i. High Pleasant Valley with diver sion from the Salmon. Construction of Nez Perce, he said, would he hazardous to fish runs because "it must be admit- ivu mm proven anu luny accepieaj iiiucinn ait; iiui yei avauauie ior handling fish ' over dams much higher than 100 feet.

However, nlan No. S was 'inally approved as best but no authorization will be asked for Lower Canyon Dam until a snlu tion to the fish problem has been found, he laid. If it should be decided never to build that dam then plan No. 4 could be substi tuted, a diversion tunnel from the Salmon In augment the flow of the Snake benind High Mountain Sheep substituting for Lower Can yon, "as a sound alternative." In the basin as a whole. Col. Clark said oefore the meeting, the men studying how best lo develop the region's resources, "always had a multiple choice." When the basin's development nears completion this will not be so but "e row are in an area of fairly free choice." F. S. Brown, chief of the en gineering division, said that of the new projects proposed in this review report, all arc being rec ommended for congressional authorization except Lower Can yon Dam. However, he added, a delay in starting Wcnaha Dam on the Grande Ronde River of Washington and Oregon. Is con sidered advisable "in the interest of the fishery resource of that stream." In reaching its conclusions the Engineers considered local prob lems and objections. "This is a realistic report.' Brown said. Dropped from consideration was the Ben. Franklin project which would have provided slack water from McNary Pool nearly to Priest Rapids Dam but would have had adverse effects. the Ilanford Works of the Atomic Energy Commission." Also dropped was the Glacier View project which would have flooded some areas of Glacier Na tional Park, lo replace it, Smoky Range on the north fork of the Flathead River was studied, but it, too. would have backed water into the park and was dropped from the planning. These are the projects in the major water plan that survived the weeding out and are recom mended: Lihby Dam on the Koot enai. Long Meadows on the Yaak, Ninemile Prairie on the Black foot, Flathead Lake outlet im provement on the Flathead, Knowles Dam on the Flathead, Enaville on the Coeur d'Alene, Garden Valley on the Payette. High Mountain Sheep on the Snake, Lower Canyon on the Sal mon, Wenaha on the Grande Ronde, Asotin on the Snake, Pen ny Cliffs on the Clearwater Mid dle fork.
