The trend of nurrber of vehicles la constantly on the rise. The re cent figures released by the Ore gon Department of Motor Vehicles listed a total of 5.n: vehicles registered in Klamath County. They broke this down into 22 730 passenger cars. 2.0b trucks. 1.043 trailers. 44 buses and 132 other miscellaneous vehicles. When you couple this number of vehicles with the thousands that daily move in and through Klam ath Falls, you get an idea of the potential pedestrian danger. But, thanks to careful driving. and thanks to watchful patience by the pedestrians, the city can collectively boast of a perfect safe pedestrian record for the year of 1953. It may be something of a mys tery. but despite the soaring num ber of automobiles, pedestrian fa talities across the nation decreased 50 per cent in 1958 from the high point reached in 1937. At the same time, all other traf fic fatalities increased 21 per cent. It may seem facetious to specu late that perhaps more people are driving than are walking, but that probably isn't the case, either. Traffic safety programs in cities, coupled with police patrols, proper traffic signals and strict anti-jay-walking laws are undoubtedly the main factors in holding down pe destrian fatalities. But. it is a joint combined ef fort. It is a record that Klamath Falls can be extremely proud of. and should battle to maintain. As of Tuesday afternoon, the rec ord established in 185 was sull intact and Klamath Falls was over half-way on the route to a second successive pedestrian death free year. , The record, though, on traffic deaths in Klamath County as a whole did not deserve the same commendation. Through Monday. July 7T. there had been 11 fatal accidents on Klamath County highways for the year. This compares with a total of 15 (or the entire year of 196S. It is about a 37 per cent increase ov er the number as of the same time in 1958. At that lime by the end of July there had been eight accidental deaths, as against 11 for 1959. Since 1954,, the record ot fatal accidents by year have been as fol low: 195418: 195518: 1956-31; 1957-24: 195815. While we pat ourselves on the back for our enviable pedestrian safety record, we can cast a jaun diced eye at the mounting toll of traffic deaths on the county's high wars. When we can go through a year tree from any traffic deaths in the county, then we can not only be proud, but have reason for gen Bine rejoicing. ting on the demonstration.

And that is what is happening by degrees to the legend of Crater take, formed when Mount Mana ma, towering in the chain of vol canic peaks along the Pacific slope, "blew its top" and sank in the pit gouged out by a blast furnace action on every side. Gradually, the story is bemg pieced together. Indian legends account for the fact that such a mountain existed in the dark past and when the fury' of the volcanic storm burst forth, the sky for many miles was covered by the cloud of cinders and ash. Then the mountain. 17 cubic miles of it. disappeared. The surrounding crater and the peaks nearby, called parasitic cin der cones, attest to the fearful bat tle as the "dragon's teeth" grew into an army to dethrone Maiama. the monarch. The date of this event is now established at 6.700 years ago. This is learned from what is known as the carbon 14 test, as well as from a test of the lava gasses. Charred wood indicates that trees grew in Ihe region at the time. The mystery of Ihe lake is al most as much a mystery today as it was to the Indians. How or when it formed can only be sur mised. No one knew its depth and the story persisted that it was bottomless. Crude soundings dis close a depth of 1.000 feet.

Harold C. McClellan. general di rector of the exhibit, said it might be a good idea if some U.S. firm agreed to ship in crew and ma terial to ins'all a durable flooring. The dust storm is blamed on the poor quality of the concrete floor the Soviets laid. The floor beneath the great gold dome became a dust bowl after an estimated 70. mo visitors trudged past the exhibits Sunday, Since then cleaning crews hava been trying with only partial sue cess to keep down the dust.
