TU 4-4752 Ivnrly horns By BILL JENKINS This time of year is supposed to he spring. It says so risjhl in the books. And around spring we are all supposed to be lillcd with the joy of living and supported largely by the wonders of nature as she reveals her mysteries to us on every side Well, if that's the popular theory I'll go along. These last few mornings 1 have enjoyed m ore spring than a lot o people because 1 have been unable lo sleep late Insomnia or something. This has given me a splendid chance to listen to the spring chorus in all its morning joy- Indeed, 1 can I hardly avoid it. H works, around our place at leasl, about like Ibis: All night long we are soothed by the sounds of the several varieties of owl that inhabit the dark pines around the place. Their carclully spaced hoots have a ringing, melodius quality that is almost equal to a dripping lancet when it comes lo keeping you awake. With the first lainl rays nl light In the morning and those rays have been prclly well watered down lately the robins start their morning chatter. It is always a robin first. Never any of the other birds. They sort ol chirp. The owls answer mournlully. Then a pheasant who lues up in the brush jungle higher on the hll pipes up. He honks twice and then goes back lo bed, 1 guess because we don't hear him any more. The owls answer mourn fully. Then a daring jay will cut loose with a raucous blast at I lie world in general. The owls talk this over in mournful lones. Then prclty snn there will he the cheerful call of a quail on the hill. Answers come Irum all sides. The owls give up and go away lo wherever it is lhat owls go in the early morning. Maybe they don't go anywhere. Maybe Ihcy just sit and brood. Anyway we don't hear thorn any more until dark. Alter the quail start sounding off the whole chorus comes to lile. We hear all the little birds. A flicker comes down to hammer on the power pole. The geese down the field at the edge of I lie lake .start a horrid squabble among themselves lhat ends when they lake olf across the water still hurl ing off-key gibes at each other. If you listen carefully here you can hear the skitter of a pair ol grebes as they churn across the surface of the lake in their spring courting. This, of course, is enough to rouse the dogs who start a keen ing wail in the run that goes to the cllect that they arc now ready for their niot'iiin romp and where is that no good master (?l who is supposed! lo be there all lippy-tned and bursting with ea gerness lo take Ihcm lor a ride? The next sound is a low rum ble lhat has been compared by many with the sullen growl o( thun der. It isn't (hough.. It's just me getting out of the sack and al tempting lo determine which di rection is up al this unearthly hour of the morning And there you have it. 1 can pinpoint all the sounds except one. A series of short .sharp bangs that always follow the dogs opening up. I'm not sure of this one but 1 have a suspicion. 11 may be the neighbors slam ming their windows shut. t'i'iilVi.iiiiil Plains By FLOYD L. WYNNE SEVEN YEARS have a habit of vanishing all loo rapidly, and while this request may seem some what premature by a few years, it is beller lhat way than too late. In 1!W7 Klamath Kails will cele brate its louth birthday. During a portion of that time, up until 1&I3 it was actually Lmk ville, but what is now Klamalh Falls began with a lonely little sutler's cabin in IR87, built on the banks of Link River by George Nurse. TAKING A LESSON Irom the lack of adequate preparation tor' the Oregon Centennial, 1 think we should begin making plans now fur a tremendous Centennial cele bration in 1!W7. Here at Die Herald and News we have been in Ihe process over the past months of collecting and ('ling old pictures of people and places in Klamath Falls and vicin ity. We have only scratched the sur face of the picture potential of the area. However, at this point il re quires your cooperation.

The old pictures are in no way injured by the process. We. are merely making copies of them and tiling them away for use during ihe Centennial year. IT IS IMPORTANT that these pictures he accumulated. Already we have heard of a number of instances where col lections of pictures were handed down to relatives in other areas on Ihe death of a pioneer in this area. The pictures, in most cases, thus are completely lost for lu ture generations. Obtaining Ihe pictures over the next seven years will he a big project, and tabulating them and gelling the stories behind them will be an even bigger job. hut properly done, it should enable us to properly boost a centennial elebration seven years hence.

I-'immI A ml Iviiiolions By FLORENCE JENKINS II is very pleasant In find some one who agrees in print with con victions one has held in a more or icss nebulous form, lir. William Kaulman, a physi cian of Bridgeport, Connecticut, has reported on a study made on Ihe records of more than 1,200 patients. It shows that eating be havior is conditioned by the emo tional lies of cultural environment, icligious training, parents, rela tives, friends and by life's experi ences and emotional reactions in general. An individual's changing fond preferences or dislikes reflect his continuous adjustment to past and present experiences and, in some instances, to future expectancies,' the article says. Dr. Kaulman says lhat merely furnishing meals containing the es sential nutrients is not enough lo insure emotional stability. Also. persons sometimes reject certain lonris on emotional grounds. lrf general, he says, the amount of food an individual eats dally depends on habit patterns and the emotional and physical health of the individual. In times nl emotional si l ess, lor example, he meets the situation by overeating or undereating oi he may increase the intake of such "security" luods as milk products identified with the security nf childhood and home. Or. he may have a special need In recapture symbolically some treasured moment of the past by eating foods associated with some persons especially cherished dur ing childhood Similarly, Dr. Kaulman says. Ihnse who leel frustrated or have failed to gain approval, or who eel sorry lor Ihemselves. uncon sciously seek gratification by eat ing more of Ihe "reward" foods- such as chocolate, hoi dogs, can dy or nuts. Some persons reject food in i subconscious effort to punish some other person for iheir own feelings of frustration or inadequacy. So, it probably is no accident that Ihe child who has been lost Irom home is shown in newspaper photographs silling on the police sergeant's desk, rating a big ice cream rone. Some types of fear are great .ippetile-slimulalors. And. of course, there are some people, like Inky, the oflire cat. who will eat any time (nod is available. lli al Hill Klamath Falls ri'o the Editor' Rep. Forand nf Rhode Island sev eral years ago introduced a hill SHORT RIBS T4iV is A PUiFi'L UVKj UTILE TJWN into Ihe Congress that would give free limited medical and hospita service for our senior citizens on Social Security. Unfortunately, this bill has been tied up in Ihe House Conference Room. The House members are trying to get the hill out on the floor in order to hring il to a vole. It requires 21!) signatures to do this. If passed, this bill would give immediate medical relief lo some 15. 000. 000 social security recipients. The administration was lo pre sent a bill of its own to Ihe Con gress, but aller a conference of big insurance companies, the doc tors in Ihe N AM. and others, they decided against any bill at this time. Aller four years they wish to postpone any action at this time, as Ihe bill presumably needs lurlher investigation. This, of course, is an alibi to kill Ihe en tire proposal. In view of the lact most groups in our country get some kind of medical aid such as Ihe veterans. Ihe wellare group, all members ol Congress, yes, even Ihe President himself, they still wish to deny to this group of old folks this most important service. All nf you old folks of Ihe Golden Age Group should watch this bil closely. Write your congressman lhat ynu desire something done a' this session of Congress. Charles L. Hawkins, R04 N. Eleventh Street Refreshing I llin Klamath Falls (To Ihe Editor) One has lo wonder what psycholo gy pertains in the case of those who delight in motion pictures which dare you lo "see beautiful women lorlured by monsters" or those which warn you not to at tend unescorted. Is there such a sadistic hunger in our community lhat one of its movie theaters needs lo .supply this lype of picture every other week? It is truly refreshing and in- deed encouraging to have a film of such magnitude as "On the Beach" play in our theaters.

The lime is in early February of any dismal winlcr. This reflects no personal dis approval of Ihe spoils editor nor any mraninglul suggestion that chance has favored him above others.

Hie saving goes, lo he who waits. And this is the year when sports writers, if they arc any good at all, will wish that they were political writers, instead.

That does not cover what Is coming up next July. The Demo cratic Party is headed for a con vention which will compare in bitterness and impact with Ihe granddaridy nf them all. That one was the lt)24 Madison Square Garden. New York, affray.

This year the southerners will he fighting for what they regard as their way of life: fighting against the comhin ed effort nf their own party and the federal government to break down Ihe racial customs of the South. It is a fact that Sen. John F. Kennedy (D Mass.) is a Roman Catholic and a front contender for the 10 Democratic nomina tion.
