CHAMBER OMMENTS by GEORGE T. CALLISON Assistant Mgr. KLAMATH COUNTY CHAMBER OF COMMERCE Frost Fowler Last Rites Held Paintings Set For Viewing Three paintings submitted by Klamath Union High School stu dents have been selected by the screening committee of the Amer ican Red Cross to be included in a "best of all entries" group. This group will be exhibited throughout the United States dur ing the coming school year and will be included in exchange ex hibits with 36 countries partici pating. Barbara Alter, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Rolland K. King. 2405 Hope Street: Stephanie Bonotto, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Bonotto, Wocus, and Pat Carney, son of Mr. and Mrs. George Car ney, 136 South Eldorado, submit ted paintings of unusual merit. Each picture is judged on tech nical skill, imagination and its value in correctly interpreting American life as it actually exists in the community to foreign na tions. Miss Alter and Carney each selected a section of the down town Klamath Falls business dis trict for subject matter, and Mis3 Bonotto depicted an ice skating scene typical of the locality. Pictures were judged .in San Francisco by a committee of school art specialists from paint ings submitted by junior and sen ior high schools of the 11 Western states as a part of the Junior Red Cross international art program. All pictures submitted by the Junior Red Cross of the local chapter early in June were ac cepted for immediate foreign ex change projects. Mrs. Orson Stears, chairman, expressed ap preciation for the cooperation of the students participating and to the art department of Fremont Junior High and KL'HS under the direction of Gordon Kensler and Howard Hall. At the risk of sounding like a.slers broken record. I would line to dwell a little further on the tour ist promotion activities of the chamber of commerce. We arc approaching the peak of our tour ist season, and tourism is buj business in Oregon. Just how big was emphasized by Herald and News Publisher Frank Jenkins in a talk before the Klamath Falls Kiwanis Club this week. In his role as a mem ber of the Travel Information Div ision of the Oregon State High way Department, Mr. Jenkins pointed out that in 1958 tourists spent some 150 million dollars while they were in our state! All this 'at an average stay in Ore gon of three-point-eight days. The problem now faced by the Travel Information group, he said, is to devise the means of increasing that average tourist stay by as little as one or two days. To that end, Jenkins said, the advertising agency which has been retained to handle the state s tour ist advertising for the next year has agreed to send representa tives throughout Oregon to conduct tourist schools. The agency's in tention is to meet principally with service station attendants and waitresses Ihe two groups who are first to greet tourists and who come into contact with more tour ists than any other group to school them in the methods of interestingly describing the tourist attractions of their particular re gion. The idea is, of course, that an enthusiastic description of such Klamath Basin fascinations as Crater Lake, Lake of the Woods and the Lava Beds National Mon ument could easily influence trav elers into spending an extra day or two in the fabulous Klamath country. A good idea and one the cham ber has been pursuing assiduously for some time particularly this Centennial Year. As mentioned in an earlier column, we conducted "schools" with waitresses of the Klamath area last month, showing them our TV film. ,-Wish You Were Here," and going over the j chamber's many pieces of tourist-: promotion literature, including a booklet specially prepared for the use of waitresses and service sta tion attendants. In addition to area maps, lists of accommoda tions and activities and sight seeing tour suggestions, it contains answers to the most frequently asked questions by tourists. At the moment, the chamber is engaged in personally visiting ev ery service station located on a main highway in the Klamath Falls area, supplying them with the above-mentioned literature and information. The same information, of course, is given out daily to scores of tourists who stop either at the chamber office or at the state line Centennial Information Cen ter. Speaking of the information booth, as of this Thursday, trav- GREVADA Funeral sen ices were held for Frost Fowler, 67-year-oid Grenada resident on Sat urday morning at Girdner's Funer al Chapel, with the Rev.
