Youth Litter Program Declared Successful The Youth Litter Program established by the State Highway Division this past summer was declared to be an unqualified success by Highway Division officials. The program, in effect during the months of July and August, had a two-fold purpose in mind. It was designed to provide sum mertime employment for youths in the 16-20 year age bracket and also to provide a spe cial work force to combat litter along the State HighwaySystem. Funds to finance this program were derived from the sale of customized license plates. The program saw 18 four-man litter patrol crews organizedat various key areas throughout the state. The crew members proved to be most enthusias tic and energetic in their jobs and picked up 24,265 plastic bags of litter in covering ap proximately 4,900 miles of high way. The efforts of the 72 crew members resulted in a sub stantial reduction of roadside litter during the past two months These crew members have now turned to other pursuits, and it is hoped the motorists will as sist in keeping the highways in a satisfactory state of clean liness. Regular crews will con tinue litter pickup as required. 1 Dorothy Warenskjold’s Musical Theatre promises to be one of the most delightful concert events in some seasons when it is presented in the Ontario High School Auditorium on Sun day, October 19, at 3:15 p.m. in the afternoon.

Third Annual Johnny Horizon Campaign Favorite Foods Month In Traffic History The worst month in Oregon traffic history has just ended with 92 people killed during August. For the year, 448 have been killed. Thirty-three percent of the toll occurred in just 11 mul tiple-death accidents that kil led 31 people. Two of these accidents each killed five peo ple. Traffic deaths in Oregon almost always are higher during the last six months of the year than during the first half of the year. One reason offered by the Motor Vehicles Division for this increase is that heavy summer traffic also usually travels at higher speeds and when an ac cident occurs, speed increases the severity. Speed’s role in the August toll was underscored by the fact that 22 fatal accidents involved only one vehicle in which dri vers lost control and ran off the road, overturned, or collided with fixed objects. There also were seven head-on crashes. Failure to use safety belts undoubtedly played a significant role in the month’s fatalities. At least 26 people were killed in crashes in which seat belts were installed in the cars but were not in use at the time. Eight were thrown from their cars at the time of the impact; the others died from injuries received in side the car. Although the state’s traffic death toll for the year to date is now ahead of the comparable 1970 period, the Division said the state still has a chance to show a reduction this year if traffic deaths during the re maining months can be held be low their 1970 levels. Last year, 82 died in September, 49 in October, 62 in November, and 61 in December. By Leona Anderson Idaho Power Company Home Service Representative 1 As I drove along the highwaf last week I saw rows and rows of beautiful onions being harves ted. The onions shone in the sun as they were being trucked to market and to large stora ges. Workers in the fields and trucks on the highways are only a small part of what goes into the raising of an onion. Plant ing, weeding, spraying and irri gation are all vital parts of this industry. Here are two of my fa vorite recipes using onions. GOLDEN ONION CASSEROLE 8 large onions 1 - 9 oz. pkg potato chips 1 cup grated chedder cheese 1 can condensed mushroom soup 1/2 cup milk Paprika Slice onions thin and cook in a saucepan on your electric range until tender.

August Worst HIRE THE VETERAN AND YOU HIRE EXPERIENCE! 1 Camping Programs for Retarded Johnny Horizon, the Nation’s symbol of the thoughful outdoor- man, takes to the field again this fall, along with thousands of sportsmen who enjoy and ap preciate Oregon’s boutny and beauty. Although he’s a mythical fi gure, Johnny's message “This Land is Your Land—Keep It Clean!” has always come through loud and clear on litter bags distributed to outdoor en thusiasts. But there’s more to good out door manners than just packing out litter; like respecting pu blic and private property, being careful with fire and firearms, asking permission to hunt on private lands, and sensible hand ling of off-road vehicles. So this year's version of the hunter litterbags carries a broader message, covering all elements of good outdoor behavior. The design was the brainchild of the Outdoor Manners Com mittee of SOLV, Inc. Under the leadership of Chairman Allan L. Kelley, representatives of State and Federal resource agencies, State police, con servation groups, and private landowner representatives sat down to design a bag which is not only useful, but informa tive. The “message” bag will be distributed throughout Oregon by BLM crews, Oregon game patrol and police cadets, con servation groups, and others with an interest in the out doors, including Oregon 4- wheel drive and snowmobile clubs, and rock hounders. This third annual cleanup en lists the help of concerned groups, organizations, and in dividuals who appreciate Ore gon and are willing to get their hands dirty to keep it clean. To join in the campaign, con tact any Interior Department field office or SOLV county chairman, or write to: SOLV, Inc., 834 SW Fifth, Portland, 97204, of Johnny Horizon, P.O. Box 2965, Portland, 97208. You’ll receive free litterbags, along with a booklet “How to Conduct a Cleanup Campaign” and you’ll earn the thanks of future visitors to outdoor Oregon.

Heinz Company has joined the select list of corpo rations with $1 billion in annual sales, and has reached that mark one year ahead of schedule. It is the sixth Pittsburgh-based company to attain that level, joining Gulf Oil, Westinghouse Electric, Alcoa, National Steel and PPG Industries. R. Burt Gookin, president and chief executive officer, car ried that message to share holders at the company’s annual meeting here today. First - quarter sales and earnings, announced earlier, were the highest for any first quarter in the company’s 102- year history, he said. On the basis of sales results for the last four fiscal quarters, Heinz passed the billion-dollar mark originally projected for fiscal 1973, and headed for the ninth consecutive year of improve ment in sales and earnings. For the fiscal year ended last April 30, Heinz posted sales of $989 million, a 12.3 percent gain over the preceding year, and earnings of $37.6 million, a 15.6 percent gain. The flrstquarter of the current fis cal year showed consolidated sales of $241 million, up 15.7 percent from last year’s first quarter, and earnings of $7.5 million, up 6.6 percent. Mr. Gookin credited a num ber of factors for the company’s steady improvement in per formance in the face of con tinuing world-wide inflation and other economic problems. Pro minent among these, he said, was a position of strength achieved through development of skilled management. He said: “We have creative, imaginative, well - rewarded management that largely sets its own goals, within the over-all goals established by World Headquarters. Individual initia tive is given encouragement and scope for development at Heinz.” FUMI-RIPPER..
