Sen. George A. Smathers broke

that as long as members of the

Forest Supervisor Vondis E.
Miller indicated that a geologic
brochure of the Diamond Lake
Area will be published early in
1DK4 and will be available to the
public. Through this and other
means, the multiple-use objectives
will be realized in managing our
national forest heritage.

Dr. Purdom is well qualified
to make such a scientific study.
In 1936, he received the bachelor
of science degree from the Univer
sity of Kentucky, and in 1960,
earned his Ph.D. from the Uni
versity of Arizona. His experi
ence includes geology work in
Cuba, northern Alaska, and Ven
zuela.
. From VMM to 1962. he was as
sistant professor- of geology at
the University of Oregon then
was employed as geologist for the
Bureau of Land Management in
Nevada, before coming to the
demand" that Rusk appear at a
hearing and that other department
witnesses testify.
Rusk agreed to meet with the
subcommittee at a "mutually ar
ranged convenient date."
The department has said the
charges, which could result in
Otepka's dismissal, involved un
authorized declassification of se
curity matters relating to other
department employes. In one
case, Otepka was accused of hav

Umpqua National Forest this
summer. He returns to his teach
ing post at the University of Ore
gon this fall.
Dr. Purdom's report indicates
the oldest exposed rocks in the
Diamond Lake Area to be be
tween 12 million and 60 million
years old. These lavas are most
ly covered by the High Cascades
lavas, represented by such peaks
as Mt. Thielsen and Mt. Bailey
On both of these peaks, the per
severing climber is rewarded
with outstanding exposures of the
stormy volcanic activity which
occurred between one and 12 mil
lion years ago.
About 6.600 years ago, Dr. pur
dom's report continues, a "glow
ing avalanche" of pumice from
Ml. Mazama rushed down across
Diamond Lake, moving at speeds
sometimes in excess of 100 m.p.h.
The avalanche snapped off trees
like matchsticks, engulfing them
in the flow.
From the glacier-carved slopes
of Mt. Thielsen to the columnar
jointing in the North Umpqua
Canyon, Purdom's report reveals
a fascinating history told in the
rocks.
Unique geologic forms, such
as pumice that floats, columnar
jointing ' resembling posts stacked
on end i, volcanic bombs 'molten
lava solidified in football - like
shapes), and charcoalized logs
arc common throughout the area.
Forest visitors are invited to ask
for information on the location
of these phenomena.

Thorpe indicated that a camp
ground is designed to function at
about 50 per cent capacity. This
gives the sites opportunity to
"rest." and the tender mountain
grasses a chance to grow. How
ever, Diamond Lake Camp
ground was used to approximate
ly 85 per cent capacity through
out the season, placing a heavy
load on all facilities, including
roads. To alleviate this situation,
more campgrounds are in the
planning stage. Clearing for one
such campground Broken Arrow
was completed this summer.
Thorpe requests the cooperation
of the public in observing speed
regulations in the Diamond Lake
Campground. New signs will be
installed permitting 20 m.p.h. on
main roads and 10 m.p.h. on
spur roads. It is essential that
these limits be observed to pro
tect the many children in the
area. On weekends, there may be
1,500 to 2.000 people in the camp
ground, Thorpe said. With such a
large number of people, reduced
speed is essential, he stated.
