Heavy Rain Routs Campers From Bed Rolls MOSCOW UPII - "There is plenty of bread for everybody look for yourself, said housewife as she pointed to row upon row of white and black bread in a Moscow bakery. The woman was standing in a long line and when she counted the 24 shoppers ahead of her, she sighed. "There is always enough bread and other things," she said. "But these lines always lines for everything." To the casual observer in Mos cow the sight of bread lines together with the uproar in the Soviet press about bread wastage might indicate severe short ages this winter. But this does not appear to be the case. A check of Moscow shops and bak eries shows plenty of bread to go around, even though some have limited sales to one loaf to a customer to prevent rush buying. News of the poor grain harvest led to a rash of scare food buy ing in many Moscow stores earlier, this month but this has largely subsided. Even restau rants are still "piling it high" de spite government warnings to go easy on bread. The spotty wheat harvest has however led to one shortage: Flour for baking is unavailable at retail stores in the Soviet capi tal at present. The Soviet govern ment has assured that there will be adequate supplies this winter as a result of wheat purchases abroad. As the housewife walked out of the bakery clutching two loaves of white bread they are usually not wrapped in this coun try she smiled at a Western reporter, saying: 'Lining up to buy anything is a habit with us. I must average an hour a day on a line." All over the capital city there are lines and not only for bread for watermelons (now in season and very tasty), tomatoes, pota toes, milk and cheese. The main reason for the queues Russians explain, is not only that Soviet farms and processing plants still don't turn out supplies fast enough: It is also due to poor distribution. That the Soviet Union has insufficient retail shops was admitted only this month by the magazine "Soviet Trade." The number of food shops in fact, stores of any description is only a fraction of the num ber to be found in New York or Kansas City, London or Paris. By a rough estimate the number of bakeries, groceries and fruit and vegetable stores in Moscow can be no more than a tenth of those found in New York, for example. Poor distribution is manifested in other ways. The Communist party organ Pravda reported on Sept. 27 that hundreds of tons of fresh tomatoes and other vege tables were rotting in rail yards outside Moscow due to transporta tion foulups. Such reports of spoilage come almost daily and account for the fact that on a given day in Mos cow there may be a glut of peaches or cucumbers while there will be none of these items the next. The grain crop this year is poor due to drought and bad weather in the Ukraimain and Kazakhstan virgin land bread basket areas. Even so it is estimated that the output of grain this year will amount to approximately 140 mil lion tons with the difference between this figure and the 147 million tons produced in 1962 be ing made up for by purchases abroad. The fact that an output of grain almost equal to last year's yield constitutes a grain shortage, West ern experts here say, is due to the increasing requirements of rising population, and demand from Russians to be better fed along with being better supplied with consumer necessities.

Knowledgeable people say the cabin was erected by a Urapper who later abandoned it and his provisions yhen ha learned that his name, among others, had been drawn as a winner of various 160 acre homesteads In Tulelake soon after World War II. A friend of the trapper flew over the cabin in an aircraft during the middle of winter and dropped a note in. forming Die man of his good luck. The truppcr slipped into h I s snowshoos and departed post haste for the lowlands, leaving much of his equipment behind. With darkness several hours away, we continued past Margue rite Lake to Wind Lake, where we heated a hearty meal over a fire and set up camp, loiter we slipped Into our bed rolls, tinder a sky shimmering with stars. But within an hour there came a slight sprinkling which was the forerunner of an all-night torrential downpour that was our undoing. None of us stirred to prepare shelter against the first rain, for it was our belief that this was but a brief shower that would end as suddenly as It had come. Moments later It did Just that. After a brief Interlude of silence a moaning wind came pushing through the canyon, driving huge droplets of rain almost laterally. Like turtles, we pulled our heads into the bedrolls, hunched our selves up tightly, and waited for the storm to pass. It didn't. Instead, the wind Increased in velocity and the siaccato ot rain pelting the earth stepped up in rhythm, Wlien one side of my bedroll became saturated, I ex tended an arm into tin elements and groprd for part of a larp tn pull over that remaining sec tion of the sleeping bag which was still waterproof.

I UPII When a youngster spins a black ball down a bowling lane here, civic leader's cheer it as a strike against juvenile delinquency. The teen-age rage in Joplin and the neighboring towns of Webb City, Mo., and Galena, Kan., is to be a member of the Tri-City Junior Bowling Association, About 40 per cent of the eligible youth belong. "Since, the association was slarted two years ago," Woodson Oldham, juvenile judge, said, "juvenile delinquency has drop ped noticably. "Not one junior bowler has ever been in juvenile court or ar rested by authorities for ques tioning." Boy S. Wood, superintendent of Joplin schools, praised the pro gram as a ycar-around boon to extra curricular activities for youth. He said it kept the chil dren active and out of mischief. Also, students who play hookey are barred from bowling. Harry Hoffman, a radio news man (at KFSB', and Bill Mar shall, president of local (PlaD bowling lanes spearheaded the movement. Marshall said the junior bowling at his lanes was the largest program at any sin gle establislunent in the nation. The association has 2.500 mem bers and a school census shows that there are only 6,200 persons in the area who are eligible by age 6 to IB to join. Hoffman said the organization was a bonanza he had not ex pected. Parents now take their children to neighboring areas for tournaments, besides visiting the lanes to w atch the youngsters roll. Strict rules are enforced. No smoking is permitted. Use of vul gar language, liquor and bad sportsmanship are taboo. v ? n ft ' - ' BREAD LINE In Russia "there is plenty of bread for everyone," if you don't mind standing in line for it.

If you are the sort who gets dizzy on a stepslool. forget about the weatner conditions and hire a roofer. Sloping roofs especially are not for anyone but the sure-footed. Flat roofs can be tackled by any careful person. You may want to repair your roof because you've detected a damaged shingle or a tear in the rooting from the outside. Or you may have noticed a leak from within. If the latter is the case. determine the exact point at which the water is entering. Where water drops to the atlic floor Is not necessarily the point at wtiich the roof U leaking. Trace the leak back to its origin and mark the spot. Look (or tight coming through the roof. Push a wire up through the spot so lhat you tan locate H from out side. Roof moit accessible to repair is the flat roof, the type some times found on garages, porches and even homes. Generally these are covered with roll roof ing. Small cracks in the material should be filled with asphalt ce ment. Spread generously with a trowel. If you find a large crack, or a bulging area that may soon split, use a patch out from new roll roofing. Make the patch larg er than the area to be covered. Widen the crack. Remove loose pieces. Cut out the bulging sec tion so that the surface will lie flat. Apply plenty of asphalt ce ment, then press the patch into place. Nail the edges with rust proof nails and then apply more roof coating to the edge, covering the nail heads at the same time. Most homes are cowed with asphalt shingles. If one needs re placing, carefully lift the flaps of Die shingle above and pry up the exposed nails. (Avoid cold weather wtien work ing with asphalt shingles especial ly. Tncy become brittle and break easily ! With the nails removed, slide out the broken shingle and slide a new one in place. Nail so that the upper shingles will cover the nail heads. As an added precau tion, dab some asphalt cement on the nail heads to check leak ing. A damaged wood shingle should be split and the pieces removed. With a hacksaw blade cut the old nails. Get a new shingle of the proper width and slide it in place. Then with another shingle or block of w ood to protect the edges of the new shingle, hammer it in place. Secure with nails driven through the space between the shingles above. You can protect the nails by sliding a piece of copper or tin between the shingles where the new ones are nailed.
