PAGE 2 A HERALD AND NEWS, Klamath Falls, Ore, .-Sunday, January 31, 10 MM3 Preparation of the Moore Park Ice Rink for public skating re quires time, proper weather con ditions, patience and mostly luck. Because of the many questions re reived, concerning the rink, we have decided to devote this week's column to an explanation of the work that goes into making the ice.' Park Foreman Kd Bingman and his crew, Frank Spcro, Walt Da vis and Dick Morrow, must first anticipate whether or not a cold spell will last a sufficient time to justify starting the ice. If they decide to begin, two of the crew will begin, usually about 7 p.m to sprinkle the bare ground in or der to establish a seal for the sue- cceding layers of ice. Layer upon layer is then frozen until a thick ness of at least six inches is obtained. This process might last a week, two weeks, or perhaps a month depending upon whether or not the temperature remains at a consist ently low level. The crew, alter nating cadi night, sometimes works until 6 a.m. the following morning, if the temperature is "ripe" (between 10 degrees and 18 degrees). Should the ice be used too soon or the weather change, a month's work can be come i mud puddle overnight. The crew's work doesn't stop when skating begins. They operate the concession stand and supervise the skating. When the skaters leave (or the evening, the process begins all over again. In addition to the work at the rink, this same crew is responsible for maintain ing the Park and Recreation De partment areas and facilities. Like the housewife, their work never teems to be done. The Moore Park Zoo gained another animal during the past week. Edwin Scott of Fort Klamath donated a wildcat. As yet, the beast is unnamed and is extremely shy, in contrast to the zoo's other wildcat resident, Boots, whose housccal antics belie his wild heritage. Jim' O'Donahue ot J. W. Kerns ahowed wildlife slides to members of the Klamath Basin Golden Age Club Wednesday. Jim's slides and lectures are well known in this area and were well received by (he Golden Agers.

The second senior class dough nut sale registered a smash hit Thursday, when students bought some 1,560, giving the seniors a $70 boost in the school's annual polio drive. Doughnuts sold last week brought in $46.44 for the seniors as students gobbled down 1,080. After school Thursday, the fresh man class, who has had its peanut sales banned because of the debris Id I in the halls and classrooms, sold Kings-ton Trio records in the main hall as part of the project toward the drive. The records are 45 rpm plat ters originally put out by the Kingston Trio on their long play album "Here We Go Again" that can now be purchased singly through the New March of Dimes only. The songs are "Molly Dee and "Haul Away and will sell until next week. Juniors and sophomores are working hard on the drive also as they are offering Blue Crutches, washing windows and cars, selling litterbags and used books among other things. The student body brought in over $1,700 last year for the Polio Foundation.

At their annual meeting recent ly, stockholders of the First Na tional Bank of Oregon heard bank President C. B. Stephenson an nounce the establishment of new record high marks in earnings, re sources, deposits and loans for the statewide bank in 1959. A special cash dividend of 20 cents per share, payable on Feb ruary 15 to all shareholders of record Febrauary 1, was voted by the bank directors in addition to the regular semi-annual dividend of $1.10 per share, the bank presi dent said. The bank marked its 94th year with net operating earnings of $6, ai6,868 after state and federal tax es and transfer of $416,253 to the reserve for possible loan losses. This is equivalent to $4.30 per share on the 1,608,000 shares of stock outstanding and compares with $6,055,842, or $3.78 per share, which was earned in 1958. Previous high mark in the earn ings category was recorded in 1956 when the statewide bank netted $6,159,249, or $3.85 per share. Deposit totals aggregated $878, 642,322- which represented a gain of $29,475,228 over the 1958 year end figure. Loans outstanding on December 31, 1959 were $488,958,- !06, up from $427,263,906 a year before. Both year-end totals are the highest ever attained by any bank in Oregon. President Stephenson pointed out that corporations are continuing to carry a heavy tax load, and in the bank's case federal and state taxes during the year amounted to $6, 019,000 which nearly matched the net profit to shareholders. The president further reported that dividends amounting to $3,537,- 600 were paid out to the stock holders at an annual rate of $2.20 pr share. In his report to shareholders, the president noted that in November the bank briefly exceeded the bil lion dollar mark in total resources, adding that it had little signifi cance except that it illustrates the continued solid growth of the Ore gon economy and widespread pros perity in business and agriculture. Looking forward from 1959's lofty economic plateau," Stephen- fin told the shareholders, "it ieems difficult to predict that 1960 will surpass these levels. Moder ate slackening may occur, yet the overall volume of business and banking can reasonably be expect-! ed to be very large in 1960." Indications for the continued growth of the economy of Oregon have never been more favorable Stephenson declared. He expressed confidence to the shareholders in the bank's ability to serve this Jxpansion well and match this de velopment in its own rate of growth throughout the stale. Asia Flu Bug Has Lost Zip LITTLE AT A TIME ATHENS, Ga. IUPI) - Hilda Dailcy, home management spe cialist at the University of Geor gia s Agricultural Extension Serv ices claims that fall house clean ing is a horse and buggy idea. Miss Dailey says modern fam ilies save wear and tear on fam ily relationships if cleaning is dis tributed more evenly during the year. WASHINGTON (AP)-A no-good bug from the Orient Asian flu- has been busy this winter, but apDears now to be losing its punch. Public Health Service doctors say Asian flu has broken out in parts of 20 or more slates in the last few weeks. But they predict that by next month flu-like dis eases will be "pretty well a thing of the past for this year. Outbreaks can be expected in other communities during the next several weeks, and the Public Health Service advises vaccina tion. But present evidence sug gests the rate is tapering off. There's nothing so far to indi cate a widespread epidemic as there was in 1957. That was the year Asian flu in its first authenticated appearance in the world struck an estimated 20 million Americans, killing about 5.000. This winter's outbreaks have been major health problems in Los Angeles, Detroit, Pittsburgh and parts of Texas. But health service doctors say that nationally it's not getting any worse and it certainly isn't spreading widely as it did in 1957." In the week that ended Jan. 23, five more slates Missouri, Ala bama, Mississippi, Kansas and II linois reported isolation of the Asian flu strain among flu pa tients. States which had previously re ported the Asian strain were Call, fornia, Hawaii, Iowa, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Texas, Washington and the District of Columbia. Reports of flu-like disease have, come also from Kentucky, Mis. sissippi, Nevada, Ohio, Tennessee, Utah, West Virginia and Wyom. ing. And there have been increas es in respiraiory iniecuons in Georgia, North Carolina and Colo rado, though none have yet bees pinned down as flu. Hard-pressed doctors in Texas and California reported to tha health service that in their com. munities the disease was mora severe than in 1957 and the inci- dence of pneumonia was higher. However, Surgeon General Le- roy Burney says that in general this year's outbreaks have not been as severe as in 1957.
