Fires, Race And Parade Spark Fair ALTUIUS Tlirills and excite ment highlighted the last day of the Modoc County Fair in Cedar' ville Sunday. The street parade through Ce darvillo was nearing an end at noon when the call of fire went. out and the fire trucks pulled out of the parade to fight a grass fire blazing behind the fairgrounds. The fire was controlled before the rodeo at 1:30 p.m. when young Kelle Siglcr of Alturas gave a challenge to veteran bar rel racers June Hemstead, Darryl Levitt and Sis Hoiloway. Kelle, who was a princess in the court of Queen Mary Lou Mapes, raced her first race to a time of 18.3 The veterans downed the new comer, however, with Hemstead riding in 17 seconds flat; Hollo way, 17.3: and Levitt, 17.8, but the young newcomer still made fourth place for her novice per formance. Injury took over during the bull riding contest near the end of the rodeo as Dave Haas of Fal lon, Nov., was bucked off of his bull and kicked in the chest. Dave had ridden his bull to third place money and took the fall after the eight-second whistle. He was hos pitalized at the Modoc Medical Center with critical injuries of a punctured lung and broken ribs. As the rodeo ended, and every one was headed home, smoke again billowed up behind the fair grounds and the fire-fighters were called to duty. More than an acre of grassland adjacent to the fair grounds blazed out of control for some time as an old barn, out buildings and a house burned to the ground. Cedarvilie firemen were able to maintain the blaze and keep it from spreading to the fairgrounds and a densely populated area nearby. The last lira was be lieved to have been started by lit tle boys and matches. Interim Committee Studies Effect Of Automation PAGE A HERALD AND NEWS.

(UPIl -Four airmen third class, including two from Oregon, who volunteered to spend 43 days in a space cabin simulator will get an extra treat an 11-day leave during which they all plan to go home. The four emerged from their locked up chamber Monday and were pronounced in excellent physical condition. ' tend unemployment benefits, the IcUlative Interim Committee on Technological Employment was told here today. "ftiv npnnie a fikiil to sell to (employers." Ray Ziegler of the State Bureau of Labor told com mittee members. Thp interim grnun has launched a study of the impact of auto mation on Oregon's labor force, and will make recommendations to the 11)65 legislature. Labor Commissioner Norman Nilscn said his department was "facing a challenge to help the work force to adopt to the change which is sweeping Oregon and the entire nation." I Zippier, who on his own time 'began a series of evening coun-j seling programs to aid unem ployed workers, said most dis placed persons don't know how to look for jobs, and don't know their skills or shortcomings. Executives Have Problem He said displaced executives have the toughest problem get ting a new job, while those who work with their hands are more easily retrained. He said persons under 20 and over 40 face the most difficulty in finding jobs. Nilscn said it was the labor commission's job to get the work force to recognize the skills it had to offer, and the department of employment's job to get the po tential employe together with a prospective employer. It was pointed out that the Ore gon work force was above the national average in intelligence, and had one of the lowest rates of illiteracy. Nilsen said this was a great advantage because the labor force was betler able to adjust to technological advances It was pointed out that the state civil service recently listed 206 job openings, and more than one- third of them were open to out- of-state residents. This was be cause there was a shortage of people in Oregon to fill the po sition, which required a high de gree of technical skill, SCHOOL Work Books JONES' OFFICE SUPPLY 629 Main TU 4-4197 "We're Loaded to the Gills" with new '64 Packard-Bell Televisions.
