BRAND NEW OLD CARS Alan McEwan, Bellvue, Wash., polishes up his 1933 Rolls
Royce Phantom 2 at a stopover at the City Center Motel Tuesday night on his way
to the annual Rolls Royce Owners Club National Meeting at Lake Tahoe. Six of these
old ears from Seattle and Portland stopped in KF on their way to the meeting. Some
of the cars, mostly 1930 models which cost in excess of $20,000 new, have traveled
less than the mileage in the original guarantee, 100,000 miles. Julian Eccles, who owns
one of these beauties, said he still gets a good 1 0 miles to the gallon.

THE OWL
HOOTS
By AL GEISS
One of Oregon Tech's foremost
expressions of appreciation this
week goes to the Herald and
(News. We feel that having an op
portunity to present Oregon
Tech's intimate and imxrtant
happenings in our own way
through this column is a real
service to Oregon Tech and we
'hope to the people of this area
also. We should mention that it
:is far beyond the usual contri
bution in similar situations.
This is the final Owl Hoots col
umn of the 1902-1963 school year
'and, incidentally, it is the end
;o( the third year which the Her
ald and News has offered us this
; opportunity. Any hooting that this
owl docs during the next month
'will be among the technical col
leges in the eastern half of the
United States where this writer
win be conducting a survey.

'Oregon Tech graduates walked
into that waiting world. Some
times we feel that the successful
accomplishment of two years of
academic and financial obstacles
at Oregon Tech is in itself a
.valuable conditioning period for
life comparable to the boot camp
preparation for a military career.
Graduation to most Oregon Tech
students means acquiring a posi-
tion in a field where they arc
;both qualified and interested and
no less important a paycheck
ach month. To some student
wives it means tlic first new
Idress in a long time and some
spending money again for a
rchangc. We oldsters can and
probably must consider these
problems in the light of the philo-
President's Review of the Year.
Jolin W. Snider commended the
graduating class on behalf of the
State Board of Higher Education.
The Greatest Service Award was
presented to Sarah F. Wolverton,
Pasadena, Calif., and the Great
Service Award to Harley Libby
of Jefferson for their significant
contributions to Oregon Tech. The
afternoon ended with the presi
dent's reception for parents and
guests.
Dr. R. W. Bingham, dean,
Mechanical and Applied Sciences,
has accepted an assignment as
chief adviser for trade and tech
nical education in the Sudan with
Dunwoody Institute and US-AID.
He will be given a two-year leave
of absence from Oregon Tech to
fill the position. The dean, with
his wife, will go to Khartoum,
Sudan, Africa, sometime this
summer. "We arc extremely ex
cited." Dean Bingham said. "In
the first place, the position is a
real challenge and, in the sec
ond place, we are thrilled about
the opportunity to travel in for
eign countries. We will be doing
Sort Spots In
Roads, Wardell
Warns Drivers
Most of the roads leading into
the streams and rivers of t h e
hinterlands of Klamath County
are open but the fisherman who
onves along those dirt roads and
isn't watchful of soft spots in
them is sure to get stuck, George
Wardell, supervisor of the Klam
ath Forest Protective Association,
cautioned motorists Saturday.
wardell slated that access
roads into Upper and Lower Long
Creek and Deep Creek, in the
King's Cabin area, have been
cleared of fallen trees but por
tions ot them may be impass'
able.
"Some of the roads are fine
until you get to a soft spot. Then
its too late you get stuck," War
dell commented.
Motorists were warned to be
especially careful in the vicinity
of Pole Butte, Camp Six, and
the Sycan region. The roads are
generally good in that area, but
motorists are cautioned to use
extreme care in using them.
Roads have also been opened
into Jenny, Johnson and Spencer
creeks, near Kcno, but, as the
other areas, should be traveled
with caution, Wardell concluded

Professor William Grimes re

had been certified in the grade
of Senior Engineering Technician.
This certification by the National
Society of Professional Engineers
is a relatively new program and
Oregon Tech feels that this is a
real distinction forxG rimes.
A person so certified is required
to have had 15 years experience

nature and the recommendation
of three professional engineers.

Wandering Weldon Still
Among Absentees At Zoo
SAN FRANCISCO (UPI) -Wandcrin'
Weldon the wallaroo, a
kangaroo-like creature which es
caped last week from the San
Francisco Zoo, is still keeping one
jump ahead of tlie posse.
The spritcly 75-pound animal
has been seen several times since
it hopped off on its oivn last
Friday, but witnesses seldom got
much more than a glance.
Weldon vanishes with the speed
of the wind and the bounce of
a yo-yo.
The wallaroo made its latest
appearance Thursday morning,
when the children of Eugene Ham
ilton woke their parents at 6;30
a.m. with exclamations of "Hey,
there's a kangaroo eating weeds
in our backyard."
The Hamiltotu notified zoo di
rector Carey Baldwin, who raced
to the scene in hopes of lassoing
the critter. But Weldon bounced
over a four-foot fence with case
and went about doing whatever!
wallaroos do when they have
free time in San Francisco.
Baldwin admitted that the task
of returning Weldon to his home
will not be an easy one, because
the proper way to handle a
wallaroo is to catch it by the
tail and hold its feet off the
ground.
PLAN NO PROTEST '
WASHINGTON (UPI) The
United States does not plan to
protest to the Venezuela govern-:
ment the raid on the U.S. mili
tary mission office in Caracas by
pro-Castro terrorists. r-
Weldon is extremely fast, can
bounce in any direction, and is
capable of clearing a six-foot
obstacle if he puts his mind to
it.
So what Baldwin needs is some
one who is extremely fast, can
bounce in any direction, is cap
able of clearing six-foot obstacles.
and can catch a wallaroo by the
tail.
The zoo director admitted he
doesn't qualify but he intends to
keep trying.
