Professor Smith said, with the
great losses in sawmills and plan

by marked increases in plywood

ment.
The expansion in the production
of plywood and in paper and al
lied products in Oregon in recent
vears is nothing short of startling
The number of plywood plants in
Oregon has increased 700 per cent
in the last 15 years. At the same
time, plywood production has shot
up 1,100 per cent! Oregon
first paper mill, which opened in
1807 in Oregon City, produced
three-quarters of a ton a day. The
state's several mills now produce
over three thousand tons a day
The future for both plywood and
paper products in Oregon are e.-
cellent, according to industry
spokesmen. R. H. Noycs Jr., gen
eral sales manager for Boise-Cascade
Corporation, told his seminar
audience that Oregon "has a tre
mendous future in this expanding
industry, but that expansion

Tanker Crashes Bomber In Mid-Air
ASHTON, Idaho UPI -Anj
aerial search started at dawn Sat
urday for an Air Force B-47 bomb
er lost Friday night in a collision
with a tanker over the wild and
rugged Idaho-Wyoming border.
The Air Force at Mountain
Home AFB, Idaho, said the bomb
er apparently went down about 20
miles northeast of here. This
would position the crash scene in
the Idaho portion of Yellowstone
National Park.
The KC135 tanker sustained wing
damage but managed to limp to
the Mountain Home base for a safe
landing.
A sighting of the missing B47
had not been made. Its position
was estimated by members of the
tanker crew. Four crewmen were
aboard the bomber.
The Air Force said the collision
occurred about 6:45 p.m. as the
aircraft engaged in an aerial re
fueling drill. The pilot of the
tanker radioed a Federal Aviation
Agency tower that the B47 had
gone into a "flat spin" and dis
appeared into a cloud bank.
Idaho and Wyoming law enforce
ment personnel were attempting to
make their way fo the scene.
Sheriff's deputies at St. Anthony,
Idaho, said the Forest Service
roads in the vicinity were snow
clogged and snowcats probably
would have to be used.
An Air Force rescue unit was
alerted at Mountain Home, and
the Air Force said it would be
dispatched as soon as a sighting
was made.
There was no indication what
caused the crash. The Air Force
said an investigation was under
way. The FAA said the collision
occurred between 24,000 and 29,000;
feet. The bomber was assigned to
the Mountain Home Base, the
KC133 to Larscn AFB, Wash.
Bomber crew members were
identified as Capt. Frank G. Zum
ba, 32, the pilot; Capt. Bruce A.
Chapman, 33, the co-pilot; 1st Lt.
Lorin B. Matthews, 30; and the
crew chief, S-Sgt. Lawrence E.
Harrison, 35.
The tanker was assicned to Lar
scn AFB, Wash. The B47 was as
signed to Mountain Home AFB,
None of the tanker crew was injured.
Officials at Larsen AFB said the
KC135 was piloted by Capt. C.F.
Frazier, 34, Winfield, W. Va. '
