"These after Labor Day mar. kets usually are influenced by the less emphatic trends which make themselves felt in August, ine trend during August has been confidence building rather than confidence breaking," he notes, Most of the unfavorable things Deoole have been talking about have not happened, Hooper aims. Reynolds & Co. notes that cer tain groups have been consistent ly outperforming the general list and should continue to do so They are air transport, autos, soft drinks, drugs, fertilizers, food, oil, radio-television, retail stores, tex tiles and electric utilities, it says. Martin Gilbert of Var, Alstyne Noel tc Co. says that the tech nical pattern is an excellent one indicating higher levels for the Dow-Jones industrial average with the near term viewpoint fa vorable toward an attack on the all time liighs. Gilbert points out that there is considerable over hanging resistance "but as far as we are concerned, the potential is for an upward breakthrough to new peaks."

No additional price siij)ort is authorized for oats or rye. Effective in 1964, no price sup port funds are autliorized for wheat, oats or rye. The overall picture at tlic pres ent time, comparing commercial prices with ba.sic loan rates plus support prices, indicates that in wheat a rancher would favor the basic loan rate if he has his own storage facilities and it would be a toss-up if he has to pay com mercial storage prices as to whether he stored or sold his wheat. In feed barley, at the moment the commercial market appears to offer the most promise, al though a rancher with his own storage facilities would find it a toss-up. However, faced with the necessity of having to handle his crop twice, once into storage and again when he sells it to the gov ernment, he might find the com mercial market more attractive. In oats, the rancher again would find he could gain about $.75 a ton under the basic loan rale if he has his own storage, but he would have to consider also the double handling of oats under a storage program. The rancher without storage would lose by accepting the basic loan and not selling commercially, depending upon when his crop went into storage or was sold. For rye, the rancher would ap pear to benefit in either case un der adopting the basic loan rate whether he did or did not have sufficient personal storage facilities. Deducting the full term storage price of $3 per ton from the basic loan rate, he would come up with $38.40 a ton compared to the mar ket price of $38 a ton. and the per son with storage of his own would come up with $41.40 a ton com pared to the present market price of $38 a ton. This explains why, today, rancher must be- more than Just able to raise a marketable crop. He must then be able to pick the proper mothod of disposing of his crop and in (some cases that can be quite a task. Charles Street, ASC manager, indicated that no applications had yet been received for grain loans of any kind, but, he added, this was normal. Ordinarily, he indi cated, loan applications begin about mid-September and contin ue into October and November.

There's a great awakening of conservatism on the college cam pus, especially in the Midwest and the Northwest," Jim Gwart ney informed members of the Kiwanis Club Thursday noon at the Winema Hotel. Gwartney, a Washington State University graduate, is one of a trio of three young men who have undertaken the task of speaking on "Conservatism on the Campus" to any and all serv ice, civic clubs, chambers of commerce or other public gath erings willing to listen. A graduate economics major, Gwartney is also co-editor of the publication "Viewpoint" which expressed the conservative view as it relates to the campus. He outlined the belief of the young conservative as supporting limited constitutional govern ment providing maximum in dividual freedom. The conservative believes in putting the emphasis on in dividual freedom, not majority thinking," he said. One of the major problems fac ing the conservative, he told the group, is "how to preserve the individual freedom from the na tional government's encroach ment." All Winema National Forest land within the area designated for archery hunting is open to archers with the beginning of the season, local forest officials said today. Burning conditions arc high in spite Of the cool nights, and forest visitors are urged to use extreme caro with tire. Hunters are particularly cau tioned about the use of warming fires. Avoid building tires in any material which cannot be readi ly extinguished. Clear an area to hare soil around the fire spot. Completely extinguish every firo before it is left. Except when traveling as n pedestrian, a shov el, axe and one-gallon water con tainer must be carried if camp- tires arc built at unimproved camps. The weekly recreation report from the forest indicates that all roads are open, but many are dusty. Cinder roads on the Che- mull District are rough. The like of the Woods-Fish Lake road is very rough and travel is not recommended. Doug Shaw, Che mult district rnimer, reminds vis. ilors of truck traffic on the Mil- er 1-akc road.

Two Undercover Agents Set Up Raid On Tavern Klamath Falls police, using two undercover agents and marked money. Thursday night raided a Main Street tavern and arrested four men for conducting and be ing engaged in a gambling opera tion. Police said the men had been playing poker and the game was "owned by two of the play ers. Brvon Archer, 57, 339 McKinley, and William King, 32. 710 Main. were charged with conducting the game. They were identified by police as part-owners of the game. Jack Charles Andrus. 50. and Clyde Carl Byrd, 51, both of Klam ath Falls, were charged with en gaging in the game. Officers said the raid was the culmination of an extensive inves tigation of report? of organized gambling in the rear of the Eagle tavern, 625 Main. Thursday evening's events be gan at 7:35 when one undercover agent was given $15 in marked money by police. Police gave this account of what then happened: The agent with the money en tered The Eagle, followed short ly thereafter by the second agent. The first man was not a police man, while the second was a Klamath Falls officer dressed in plain clothes. The first agent went directly to the back room of the tavern while the second man lingered for a while at the bar and then wan dered casually to the lack rooro. There, he later reported, he saw five men playing poker with chips, including the first agent. He w atched the play for 20 min utes and then reported his find ings to police headquarters via telephone. Given the go-ahead by head quarters, the policeman then re entered the gambling room and identified himself as a police of ficer. At that point, more officers ar rived and scaled exits of the tav ern. The five men at the table were taken into custody and the names of other men in the room were noted, but they were not arrested. One of the five the undercov er agent was later released. Police also confiscated a cabi net, which, they said, was used by. Archer and King to "bank" the game. Inside the cabinet was $57.60. Police said the game was being played for low stakes. Pool Hours The Klamath Municipal Pool will remain open during the month of September, according to the manager. Adolph Faller.
