The bill, bv Axrnh!-woman Pauline Davis. D-i'onola. would prohibit the sbootins o! bucks with less than three points in the counties of Modoc, Lascn and the eastern portions of SiAiyou and Shasta. The measure now goes to t h e Assembly door. If it passes there it will move to the Senate and lace an uncertain future in the Up per House Fish and Game Committee. Mrs. Davis, chairman of the As sembly committee, originally asked that shooting of forked Two Named To Amaranth Grand Office Two residents of Klamath Falls were named to serve as officers during the current year for the Grand Court, Order of the Ama anth, during an election and ap pointment of officers at the 36th annual meeting of the order, which concluded in Portland, last' Saturday. The local people selected to serve for the 1963-64 year are Wil liam N. Goen, named as one of 20 grand assistant lecturers, and Mrs. Louis E. Spcnce, chosen as one of 37 grand representatives. Mrs. Spence was named as the Oregon representative to Mary land. The ceremony, witnessed by ap proximately 1.000 friends and members of the order, featured the scaling of Mrs. Edward W Norton, Eugene, and J. Frank Guerin, Newport, as grand royal matron and grand royal patron. A total of 410 voting delegates were present representing the 32 subordinates courts in Oregon in addition to approximately 600 members and visitors from other jurisdictions. Representing t h e. supreme council was Mrs. Worth Skelton of Denver, Colo., supreme royal matron. The committee a'o considered closing the district to deer hunt ir.j altogether. But most witnesses who favored the three-point rule opposed the idea of a total clos ure. Jo.-! before the committee met, Mrs. Davis released a deer sur vey report disputing Department of Fish and Game testimony thai Door ranie conditions were to blame for present herd condi tions. She said the survey wa: taken by her legislative commit tee. We found deer feed plentiful over most of the interstate deer ranee." said Mrs. Davis. "B u t then it should be in good condi tionbecause there are no deer left to overbrowse it." She said only 83 deer w ere seen in the Devil's Garden Area, where formerly there were thousands Opposition to her bill came trom Harry Anderson, deputy fish and eame director. No other state has a tnree- point law," he said. "And if we had one many hunters would shoot forked horns anyway and just leave them." He disagreed with witnesses wno c aimed that doe-buck ratios in some areas were as large as 100-1 In a doe survey last year, he said, 50 per cent of the yearlings were pregnant,, as were 90 per cent of the 2-year-olds and all of the older docs. The deer count is down m California but it also is in other states." he safd. Anderson said this was partly due to dry condi tions and fires. "We have always had high and low points in deer herds, and for tlve past three vears we have been in a low point. Ralph Renner ot-Aituras a tor- mer Orecon game commissioner spoke for the proponents. He said there were ample deer on the in terstate range years ago when tne three-point rule was in cllect. But then big game managers and biologists got a little greedy and opened it up to forked horn After that they started snooting anything that moved. "The only reason we nave shortage of fawns now is that there are no bucks. It takes two to make an offspring." lie said Two other proponents were Erin Forrest of the Sportsmen of Modoc County; and Gene Mer cer, a retired game warden from Chico. Both said they opposed a total closure because "after the area opened up again every hunt Astoria Baker Brookings Lakeview DOORS OPEN 6:45 Starts T0NITE 3' 2 ""fil 3622-36 40 LBS. , , ' , V v ' k H T.

Her essay entitled "Americanism TNT Today. Not Tomorrow.' By KITTY STALKER Let us begin with an examina tion of the term "Americanism Such words as "patriotism." may enter our minds, but to me not these, nor a long list of simi lar words can begin to measure up to everything Americanism stands for. Rather, let us sup plement them with such things as: the free-spiritedness so character istic of Americans, the American 'melting pot." and the self-sac rifices ef our forefathers that went must constantly strive for national improvement within our own country. First and foremost, we must eliminate re ligious, racial and group preju dices from our hearts if we arc to safeguard and preserve our Amer ican way ol lite, in America there is no room for hatreds. Therefore, in a nutshell. I (eel that if the growth of the nation is to continue, we must make in creasingly effective use of its re sourcesboth natural and human. I feel that we must aim ourselves toward bettering the present na tional and world situations by liv- ing up to the American tradition to its highest degree. Finally, I feel that there is every reason to believe that the American peo into the making of our govern- pic are meeting the challenge of ment and nation. We must keep today exceedingly successiuuy in mind the fact that the benefits J Let us continue! we enjoy today in America are by no means inherent, many hav ing been gained only after long struggle and bitter hardships. may concur that Americanism isj a firm consolidation of these con cepts and principles.

We must do our utmost to influence nations and ncooles away from the lure of Communist propaganda. To ac complish this, it is most vital thai we set favorable examples and impressions in other countries as individual American citizens, as well as a whole nation.

The slides of the Cabana were taken by Mrs. Glenn Johnck. Klamath Falls, who was the lead er (or the U.S. Girl Scout team and program director for the Ju liette Low Session at Our Caba na last year. Our Cabana is an international friendship event held at tlve Western Hemisphere world center in Cuernavaca, Mexico. Girl Scouts from New Zealand, Luxembourg, Sweden, Mexico.

McNamara ar rives in Houston tonight for a briefing that could help decide whether the Air Force Dyna-Soar program gets the ax. Officials of the space agency's Manned Spacecraft Center will brief McNamara and other de fense Department officials tomor row on project Gemini, a project not directly related to Dyna-Soar. What . the secretary hears in Houston about Gemini, particular ly its military values, will likely (igure into his decision on whether Dyna-Soar should be continued. It is presumed ho will weigh the military value o( Gemini against possible benefits of Dyna-Soar. Dyna-Soar is an Air Force proj ect that calls for the development of a space ship that can land like a conventional airplane instead of being dropped by parachute. Gemini was originally conceived i p purely civilian space effort in which two men would be sent into orbit for long periods as a preliminary to Project Apollo, the trip to the moon. If pushed at full speed, it would be some years before Dyna-Soar could produce lone-duration manned space (light. Dvna-Soar and related projects have cost about $300 million so far and have not progressed as fast as some supporters had hoped.

Judge Vandenbere Hp. dared the! verdict valid because, excluding the abstaining juror! iu members ot the panel favored the decision. Judge Vandenberg later denied a motion for a mistrial from the defense attorney and set 10 a m., Friday, March 15, as the time he would pronounce sentence upon Mackey.
