Leadership Activity Earns Camp Fire Awards For Two Mrs. Dale West. Merrill, and Mrs. Martel Sundkvist. Dorris. are recipients of one of Camp Fire's highest awards, the Wakan Serv ice Award for outstanding leader ship in their work with their own group of girls and for giving val uable service to the .council or total Camp Fire program. Win ners were presented their recog nition by Frank Drew, rouncil vice president, during the annual Klam ath Council meeting at the Metho dist Church. January 27. .Mrs. Sundkvist has been Camp Fire's key person for community interpretation in Dorris. She was a Camp Fire girl in Dorris and achieved the rank of Torch Bear er Craftsman. After college and marriage, she began her Camp Fire group leadership which was continuous from 1951 to 1957 when her girls graduated from bigh school. Increased home' responsibilities did not permit her taking another group of girls so she became train ing chairman for Dorris and also served as a member of the board level training committee. While serving as a leader, she was responsible for organizing the Dorris leader's association and be came their first chairman; she promoted attendance at resident camp and secured campships for girls who could not afford to go: she recruited leaders and organ ized new groups: and was instru mental in starting such annual events as grand council fires, dad daughter dinners, mothers' teas and fund raising activities. She is active in all community affairs in Dorris and is now serv ing as president of PTA. Recent ly she became a den mother so that her son might enjoy the Cub Scout program. She also has a pre-school daughter whom she hopes someday to include in her second group of Camp Fire Girls. Mrs. Dale West, creative,' orig inal, a good organizer and plan ner, is known, and probably al ways will be, as Mrs. Camp Fire in Merrill. She believes strongly in the philosophy of Camp Fire Girls and as an elementary schoolteacher, appreciates its true worth as a leisure time pro gram for girls. Her Camp Fire volunteer work of organizing girl groups and help ing leaders plan group activities began several 'years before she took a group of 10-year-old Camp Fire girls in 1952, which she con tinued through 1957. Three girls in this group, includ ing her daughter,- Sara, attained the rank of Torch Bearer in Sn. cial Leadership, the highest rank in tamp nre. She was the first chairman and organized the Mer rill tamp rire leaders association; continued to serve as group or ganizer and in general made Camp Fire Girls an important part of Merrill's community life. She has helped to extend the Deadline Planned For TV Project MONTAGUE A time limit of March 31 was set bv a rrnim nt Yrcka residents representing the Nor-Sis TV Corporation as the concluding date for the house-to-nouse canvass now being conduct ed in the Yreka area. May 31 was me date set for all funds to be in, if Ihe translator svstem is to be installed this decisions were the result of a dis cussion held at a meeting in the Copco office on Thursday evening, January 22. Barney Lewis, a member of the board of directors of the corpor ation, ana uarold Crawford, both of Yreka, headed the meeting. Crawford allocated several loca tions, which had not been covered before, to John P. Heft, the area around Ihe Shamrock cafe; Paul Dunham. Tom Dodson and Lewis Foulke, the Pines district: Harold Mills and James Lance, the Ober lin road area; Mrs. L. B. Waters, area south of the highway to the Pines: and Bill HammcrSloy, Hawkinsvillc. Jim Dow, technical engineer for the corporation, was called upon to answer questions that seem to have created a snag in the fund raising campaign. Dow explained that a site would be determined where the most membership is located. Further more, a clause in Ihe corpora tion's bylaws, will protect the members by refunding $22 of the $25 invested, if a good signal Is not received from the translator system. The corporation retains the right to use $3 of each mem bership for operating costs. Dow also told of the various communities that are being con sidered (or coverage by the trans lator system. The areas arc Bogus-Willow Creek: Little Shasta: Montague: Big Springs; Gazelle, Grenada: Weed and the outlying districts of Yreka. He also said it would require two translator units, one in the south end, and one to cover the north end. The units, which include transmitters, receivers, antennas and buildings would, at the very least, cost ap proximately $25,000. On Wednesday evening, January 21. the board of directors held its regular monthly meeting in the VFW hall at Weed to explain the Nor-Sis setup to Weed residents. Talks were given by Dow. James H. .McAdams. president, and Wil son Grazier. CORRECTION !

Mamie Eyes Arizona Trip WASHINGTON (UPI)-Mamie Eisenhower plans to return to the exclusive Maine Chance beauty health ranch in Phoenix, Ariz., where she lost five pounds last year. A White House spokesman said the First Lady planned to go to the plush resort by train with her sister, Mrs. G. Gordon Moore, who- also accompanied her in t958. ' It was not announced how lone Mrs. Eisenhower planned to stay or just when she would go to the resort which is owned by cosmet ic .executive Elizabeth Arden. The ranch charges its wealthy clients $r,no a week. Mrs. Eisenhower's last trip to Maine Chance created a stir in some quarters because President Eisenhower took her there in the presidential plane Columbine III on his way back to Washington trom Ihomasville, Ga., last Feb ruary. . Jackson Greets Chamber Group WEED Clint Jackson. Siskivou County supervisor from District 3, was guest speaker at the Weed Chamber of Commerce meeting on Tuesday night, January 27. Jackson, in a speech asking the Weed people to get out and do something for themselves to pro mote tourist trade to the area, urged the promotion of two na tural recreation areas. The first, Dwinncl Lake, is about three miles northwest of Weed, and Is controlled by the Montague Irrigation District at the present time. The lake is three miles long and about one mile wide at the lower or south end. It has been used for boating, va- ter skiing, fishing and hunting in recent years. The American Gun Club has a five-year seasonal lease on the lake. The chamber of commerce checked with Stanley Wendt, man ager of the irrigation district, who said that the district is willing to cooperate with the chamber in improving the recreational poten tialities of the lake. Jackson suggested the possibili ty of securing some of the state beach and park funds to help pro mote the lake, and that sometimes the state will buy out existing leases in cases like this. Another area. Pluto Caves, a lava formation about one half mile long, 30 to 40 feet in depth, near '.he lake, was brought up for dis cussion at the meeting. The cave is large .enough for a train to run through. Other caves in the area are Devil's Kitchen and Wind Cave. The, location of the lava forma tion is about one mile from the Highway 97 cut-off road that goes through Yreka. 7th and " Main $99 GLAMOR atF, ii H, i.

Daryl Severns News Reporter Supervisors Mull Proposed Road YREKA The Siskiyou County Board of Supervisors gave a fav orable indication that they might approve the construction of a 1,400 foot road into the proposed col lege campus for the Siskiyou Jun lor College, at Tuesday s meeting, following a request made to the board by the junior college dis trict. Road Commissioner Al Powers was given authorization by the su pervisors to investigate present rights-of-way and ownership of property, along the proposed route, Powers suggested the possibility may exist that the right-of-way for the first 800 feet of road may not be wide enough to build the road to meet the minimum stan dards set by the county. Oscar Piemme, engineer for the college, gave an estimated cost of $2,340 for the construction of the 32-foot wide road. According to a report made by Dr. Donald L. Meambcr, a mem ber of the college board, the col lege is expending monies it now has in attempting to construct minimum facilities, and that any financial help given would be greatly appreciated. It was suggested by Supervisor S. C. Jackson, that the college give an easement through its prop erty to the county, instead of a right-of-way, on the possibility that the college may decide at a later date, that a road may not be nec essary, and might need the land instead, and that an easement would be less binding. It has been planned by the col lege board to construct a $200,000 college building to open next fall using monies derived from pres ent income and surplus, but ad mits a shortage exists to ade quately equip the plant.

Benson Cites Farming Voes SAN FRANCISCO (UPI) - Secretary of Agriculture Ezra Taft Benson said today the pres ent price support and acreage con trol program as it applies to wheat in bankrupt. Tobacco and peanuts also are in trouble, he said. Benson urged support for Presi dent Eisenhower s farm recom mendations which were sent to Congress Thursday. Eisenhower urged that price supports no lon ger be linked to the "fair earning power" farm parity formula, but to a percentage of the average market price during the previous three years. As an alternative. Eisenhower proposed that if Congress still preferred to relate price supports to the parity concept, that support levels be widened, from zero to 90 per cent.

El Rancho owner Beldon Katie man stated his own case: "I first saw the 'La Nouvelle Eve' show in Paris with my wife. We were both impressed with the beauty and charm of the young ladies. It is in excellent taste. It's all a matter of the manner in which the shows are pre sented." "Throw 'em out," said Jack Entratter, part owner of the Sands Hotel. "Naked girls aren't good for the resort business and they're not good for Las Vegas." A spokesman for the Tropicana said. "It's a question of good taste. There's no room for vulgarity in any public entertainment. From a reporter s point of view. both the Stardust and El Rancho shows are produced in subdued good taste. The girls wear plenty of clothes and elaborate head dresses. Only their bosoms are exposed. There are no bumps and grinds, nor other suggestive un dulations.
