There are dolls of all shapes and sizes, ranging from a 19th cen tury German doll, standing 36 inch es high, to a pair of Mexican flea dolls housed in a box the size of a thumbrfail. Mrs. Garrison groups her dolls in three categories: antiques, dolls made of unusual materials and dolls from distant lands. In the first group are four dolls dating from before 1890 and dolls with heads of china, bisque, and tin rag dolls and stocking dolls. Among her older ones is a "Tom Sawyer," complete with bandaged toe.

Southern Pacific did not ask for any change in its present com mute fares on the San Francisco Peninsula or between Oakland and Berkeley. It was proposed that coach fares between San Francisco and Los Angeles be increased by more than 5 per cent. One way rates of Santa Fe of $9 and of Southern Pacific of $9.50 would both be increased to $10. Santa Fe also asked permission to make a speciar charge from San Francisco-Los Angeles pas sengers who get off the train to visit Yosemite National Park and then reboard. The charge would be the same as the local fare be tween Merced and Fresno. Badly Burned Girl Improves SEATTLE, Wash. (AP) -. It's been a painful four months for Barbara Rowe, 9, but you wouldn't believe it when you see her smile. Barbara, daughter of Mrs. A.W. Sutphen, was burned over 50 per cent of her body April 25 when her clothes caught fire as she dumped a basket of trash into an incinerator. Since then it has been one skin graft after another. She waits in a hospital here, surrounded by dolls and stuffed animals sent her by well-wishers. Doctors are grafting skin, inch by inch, over her burned upper body and arms. Then they wait for skin growth to take more un bifhed skin.. Barbara has grown five new crops of transplant skin. Barbara 'is almost completely immobilized. She can move only the fingers of her left hand. But doctors say she's progressing well and perhaps can go home next month. lotte." heroine of an old story about a girl who went for a sleigh ride and was frozen stiff before she returned home. Among Mrs. Garrison's dolls made of unusual materials is one from Oregon, made of a dried pear. Others are formed from pipe cleaners, clothespins, corks, wal nuts, dried apples, egg shells and straw. She has a Jamaican doll made of Balata sap, a type of crude rubber; another is made from a large needle. Cree Indian dolls from Montana have wooden bodies and buffalo hair. One of Mrs. Garrison's prize pos sessions is a "love story in a nut hell." A walnut shell, sectioned to open into four compartments. displays tiny figures in each quar ter. In the first, a boy is sere nading his love, in the second the two are waltzing, the third shows their wedding and the last section shows the boy pacing the waiting room of a hospital. Most of the countries in the western hemisphere and Europe are represented in her collection. She has a regal Egyptian queen from Cairo, and a Bethelehem bride from Manger Square. There is an African fetish bead doll from Natal, a Siamese temple dancer from Thailand, a Greek shepherd and an Australian aborigine. Mrs. Garrison started her col lection eight years ago and has increased it by membership in doll clubs and searching second hand stores and antique shops Her friends and members of her family are always on the lookout for unusual dolls and bring them to her (or gifts. The only time Mrs. Garrison has exhibited her collection was at the Scott Valley hobby show two years ago, where she walked away with first prize. She says that through her hob by she has learned not only a great deal about history and cus toms of foreign lands, but many things about her own country. Movie Island it By Storm HONOLULU (AP) - A howling hurricane turned the enchanted movie island of Kauai into a mass of devastation today. It blew down houses, unroofed others, knocked out communica tions and power, flooded some sections, left roads impassable, cut water supply to some communities. The rare mid Pacific storm. known as Hurricane Dot, swirled up on Kauai from the south, hit it with 75 miles-an-hour winds and torrential rain, and moved north out to the open sea where it began to disintegrate. Damage could run into millions. Officials, hampered by knocked- out communications, waited for daylight for a full assessment of the havoc, especially to the sugar and pineapple plantations. The hurricane first struck Kauai head on Thursday night after deal Ing the rest of the islands of the Hawaiian chain only glancing blows in the previous two days. By early today, the Weather Bu reau said, "The worst is definite ly over." ' ' The island is the northernmost of the Hawaiian archipelago and the locale of the- movies "South Pacific," "Beachhead," "Pagan Love Song, and others. It was the only island to feel the full force of Hurricane Dot, much the same as it bore the brunt of the last hurricane to hit Hawaii early in December 1957.

Denver Post Writer Visits Ski Bowl On Assignment By PEGGY WALSH DUNSMUIR -. Vacation time does not necessarily mean a res pite from assignments, Peggi Bean, author and feature writer, was reminded upon arriving in Dunsmuir this week at the home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Mace Adams. The Denver Post, not knowing the name of Peggi's parents, sent a wire to the Dunsmuir News ask ing assistance in locating her. The Post wanted a special feature on the Mt. Shasta Ski Bowl. Peggi happily complied and her hus band, J. L. Eads, a Las Vegas wholesale grocer, went fishing. Peggi Bean divides her time be tween her home and family in Las Vegas and traveling as a rep resentative of McGraw, Hill Pub lishing Company of New York. She accepts lecture and feature writing assignments and also writes both fiction and non-fiction independently. This week was her first visit to Dunsmuir in six years and she said she was amazed at the growth and modernization of the town. She also said she found the Mt. Shasta Ski Bowl an appealing assignment and is assuring the Denver Post that southern Siski you County is slated to become a leading resort area in the na tion. She was particularly compli mentary of the man who had the foresight and determination to build the ski bowl facilities. Peggi Bean is the author of sev eral children's books including "The Three Little Fishes" and "Poncho, My Friend." She has been selling her work since she was 15.

Her younger daughter Susan ac companied Peggi on her trip to visit her parents. Another daugh ter, Nancy, stayed home because she has a job in a cannery this summer.
