PAGE I HERALD AND NEWS, Klamath Falll, Ore. e Sunday, Octor 22, 1961 COMMENTS : by GEORGE T. CALLISON Monoear KLAMATH COUNTY CHAMMR OF COMMWCI Attendance at the weekly lunch- eon meetings of the chamber's Board of Directors has picked up noticeably with the advent of the fall 'season. Thirty seven were present last Wednesday to hear the good news from Rev. Robert C. Groves that the Presbyterian Church has been authorized to . form a non-profit corporation "for the purpose of developing and operating an inter-community hos pital in the Klamath rails are. When the Chamber of Com merce first undertook a study ofj the local hospital pi -blem two vears aeo it was wiU. the intcn tion of carrying the project to the point where some legal body could . be formed to take over the ac tual financing, construction and operation of any new hospital fa- cilitv. Uncounted man-hours of; study, planning, conferencs and just plain hard work have gone into the project since that time. most of it under the skutui direc tion of Mel Amsborry. At the bceinninc of the summer, alternative courses of action had been reduced to two. One was the oossibility of establishing a hos pital district, with financing of new facilities to come throughl bonds, taxes and possibly the federal government. The other was an indication from the South west Oregon Presbytery t h a t it might be able to assist the com munity in finding a solution to the problem. Last week's announcement by Rev.; Groves assures the forma tiod'of a legal body which will haVe the authority "to finance, ne gotiate with architects and build ers; work with the Klamath Medi cal: Association, and do all other necessary things to lead our com munities in securing new medical facilities." The target date for this incorporation to be effected. has been set for Dec. 1. AH of this is heartening news to those who have been closely as sociated with this project over these last several months. It would be even more heartening' if it were possible to announce a tar get date for the start of construc tion of a new hospital, but anyone close to the project most of all Rev. Groves and his Presbyterian ' Committee knows that many more months of hard work are in store before any sort of a schedule can be determined. Stanford Research Institute, and other responsible research organi zations who have had any connec tion with hospital programs, em phasize the fact that it takes up to five years to open the doors oi a new hospital from the time serious study of the problem first begins. In view of the two years already spent on the local project by the Chamber of Commerce, there is reason to hope that if everything goes well, and no insurmountable obstacles present themselves, the time of I ive years would be shaved by two years, or perhaps a little more. One of the best ways to assure such a saving of time is for the en tire community to unite behind the Presbyterian effort. Rev. Groves and his committee already have the chamber's pledge of full support and cooperation. The chamber's hospital committee, now under the direction of Dr. E. E. Howard, and its vast file of data and information, will be put at the complete disposal of the new legal body when It is formed, to the end that the people of the Klamath Falls area may have the best possible hospital facilities to serve the needs of all of the peo ple of Klamath County and sur rounding areas.

Fishermen returning to port on a stormy night feel much bet ter when a lighthouse is LIGHT ED. It's a cheerful sight in the vast, dark ocean, and reminds them they'll soon be in their com fortable homes. They wouldn't feel route from their homes to Mesa, Ariz., for the winter. MR. AND MRS.

SILK fabrics come in many weaves, weights, etc., and a man who sells fine SILKS should know a lot about them. SINKS are sim pler and are often sold mainly by trade name so the salesman wouldn't need to know as much about SINKS as he would about SILKS. 25. Thieves in a resort town are always on the lookout for a PARKED car that they can break into and take any valuables there might be. A PACKED car might be going down the street, or the owner might be in it. iney wouldn't be on the lookout for a PACKED-car unless it was also PARKED. EXPLANATIONS DOWN 2. A new bride might ask her husband to MIND his manners be fore introducing him to her fam ily; she naturally wants him to make a good impression. It takes more time to MEND manners than is indicated here, and any way who can imagine a starry eyed bride thinking her husgand's manners needed MENDING. 4. young editor who spent a good deal of time REVISING a manuscript might have to explain to his superiors what problems he encountered, why it took much time, etc. Since he was new at the job, this might be a chance to assay his efficiency. II he spent a good deal of time RE VILING a manuscrpt, presumably one already accepted for publica tion, his superiors would surely i not just "might") demand an ex planation, would even consider firing him for his brashness. 5. You'd expect a miser to SAVE a lot of money, compar- atively speaking, because when possible he wouldn't spend it, or. would spend as little as possible. He might not HAVE a lot of money, however, since much: would depend on the size of his income and what the bare neces sities of life cost him. 6. You shouldn't assume that a man and woman you've known for years will never marry lust be cause they haven't MET. If they ever meet and they could, since you know them both it might be love at first sight. However, if they, too, have been acquainted tor years and aren t married YET, you can safely assume that they leei no attraction lor each other and will never marry. MR. AND MRS.

Most people find WAGS amusing, for WAGS are droll, wit ty people and are widely appre ciated. WIGS, or toupees, unless they are ridiculous ones worn by comics (and the clue doesn't say sol, are not amusing, and may not even be recognized as being WIGS. II. Only a foolish person would jump overboard and attempt to swim ashore if he couldn't see the SIDE of the lake. The distance could easily be too far and he migflt drown. The SIZE of the lake would make no difference if he was near enough to the shore to see the SIDE of it. 14. A wealthy matron would be surprised if a POLICE officer asked the contents of parcels she carried, since with her wealth, she could buy almost anything she wanted, and she wouldn't ex-1 pect a POLICE officer to be sus picious. She might not be at all surprised if a POLITE officer asked the same question. He might be her husband, or a close friend or relative. 16. A sensible man would cer tainly "make some changes" if his HAIR isn't behaving well have it cut differently, try a new HAlRdressing, etc. If his HEIR isn't behaving well, it may be because the HEIR is just a young child, for instance, and a sensible man would not make changes in his will, or anything else, just because his HEIR isn't behaving well. 17. The longer a housewife has to cope with a DIET, whether she is on a DIET or is preparing food for some other DIETer in the family, the more annoying it can be. Eating on a regimen often causes one to feel irritable, and special foods often require more time and trouble to prepare. Aft er a while, a housewife gets so accustomed to coping with DIRT, or dust and grime, that household cleaning becomes routine and not necessarily annoying. 18. A soldier who TAKES a cold every time he is assigned to KP duty probably won't be very pop ular with his buddies. Even though his cold is genuine, some will suspect him of goldbricking and will resent having to pull KP in his place. If a soldier FAKES a cold each time, to avoid KP duty, his buddies will soon catch on and he will certainly be unpopular not just "probably." 21. A wise teacher knows that helping out in the classroom makes bashful students feel more at ease, so she would give the shy ones a TASK to do. Singling the bashful ones out for a TALK might well make them feel con spicuous and even more ill at ease, so being wise, the teaclitV wouldn't give them a TALK.
