KLAMATH COUNTY CHAMBER OF COMMERCE It was in the first of this series of columns, which appeared in print about three months ago, thai reference was made to a unique melhod of spreading the word about Oregon which came to liglv in a conversation between two ham operators Mrs. Helen I.ee o! Klamath Fails and Harold Wolfe, radio officer of the SS Iberville In attempting to contact her son. stationed with the Army in Kl Paso, Texas, Mrs. Lee found her self talking, instead, with Mr. Wolfe, aboard his ship, then off the west coast of Mexico. During the course of their conversation, he told her that although he has traveled all over the world, Oregon is his favorite place and that he never misses an opportunity to tell his ham operator friends in all parts of the world about the Beaver State. When this conversation came to the chamber's attention, a packet of all available Klamath County literature was shipped off to radio officer Wolfe, along with a letter conferring upon him an honorary membership in the Klamath Coun ty Chamber of Commerce. The chamber received a letter from Mr, Wolfe this week, written after his relurn from a trip to the Mediterranean, expressing appre ciation for his honorary member ship. Some of his letter is well worth sharing. Mr. Wolfe writes: "Yes, I'm a booster or Oregon, and now when I talk of Oregon to my friends, I'll , also be plugging Klamath the the BRAND NEW mm one of our late model used ears traded in We have 2 demonstrators and 1 executive cor left. These have been carefully driven, care fully cared for, and carry FULL NEW CAR WARRANTY, but we've got them PRICED TO CLEAR! You'll save plenty over, full New Car price! Present Stock with the deals HERALD AND County. Very often, in my con acts with amateur radio station' all over the world, people wil tell me how much Ihey would ike to travel and see more oi the world. 1 find it's almost a reflex action for me to answer hat while I have made several rips around the world, I would still like to see more of my own country, especially the Northwest Oregon Klamath County. Yes. Mr. Wolfe continues. "Klamath County and the rest of Oregon should be real attractions for any and all tourists, hut I'm sure this can also be said for many other parts of our country. The clinchisg factor for Oregon winning out with me has been my good fortune to meet, in per son or via amateur radio, some very wonderful, courteous and gra cious people in your state. Beauti ful scenery (and Oregon has its full share) alone, Is not always enough. find it's the people that make a visit one to be remem bered. ..." Mr. Wolfe went on to say that lie is very conscious of any op portunities for improving public relations as the result of spending several years in radio broadcast' ing in Washington, D.C. As a re' suit, he writes: "... I feel that perhaps I may be more appre ciative of your organization's ef forts than some of your neighbors who, sometimes, may take your efforts for granted and contribute little toward their success, even though these programs, sponsored by the chamber of commerce, will pay off many times in contributing to t h e welfare of your com munity." Perhaps one solution to get these 'slow' citizens behind your programs, Mr. Wolfe concludes, "would be to turn Mrs. Helen Lee W7SBX) loose. After having en joyed meeting and listening to, her over the air, I'm quite confident that she's well qualified to 'sell' Klamath County and Oregon even to Mr. Khrushchev, should he be smart enough to include Oregon in his itinerary." Fortunately, as world traveler Wolfe points out. there are a lot of wonderful, courteous and gra cious people in Klamath County and Oregon who make 'selling' our Klamath country a much easier and pleasantcr task. A Happy Lot num. tngiana turn - wnen constabulary duty was to be done policeman Joseph Ward's lot ap parently was very "happy indeed.
