Oregon Traffic Accidents Decline Reported traffic accidents in Oregon last year decreased nearly 8*/>% percent in comparision with 1975, and the lack of rain last fall and winter is being given a good share of the credit. Even with the decrease, 48,824 accidents were repor­ ted to the Motor Vehicles Division by nearly 87.000 drivers. DMV reported Wednesday that for the first eight months of last year reported acci­ dents were running less than one percent below the com­ parable period in 1975. Five months had registered slight decreases in accidents, and three months were showing increases of four to five percent. In September, when fall rains usually begin but didn’t last year, reported accidents dropped 9*A percent. Octo­ ber. when rain and wet roads are normal Oregon driving conditions, brought a 36 percent reduction in acci­ dents. November saw 20 percent fewer crashes, and December 1994 percent fewer. Accidents for the final quarter of last year are down about It percent from the average reported for the period in 1972-1975. Thanks to fewer accidents, reported injuries also drop­ ped from 38,946 in 1975 to 36.389 in 1976. The 1976 death toll, however, bucked the trend and now stands at 637-an increase over 1975 when 574 deaths were tallied, but fairly comparable to death tolls in 1973 and 1974.

ROAD TOAD This year's track duel between Nyssa’s Jeff Hipp and Vale's Ed Anthony may have to be called a draw. Hipp won the Oregon AA 440 championship on the Mt. Hood Community College track Saturday, getting back at Anthony for beating him in the 1975 state finals, but the Vale sprint star wouldn't settle for second best. Anthony put together points in the 220. 440 and mile relay to score 1494 individual points to Hipp's 14-and the Vikings once again got the last laugh at Greater Oregon League rivals Reminiscent of last year when the Vikings took next- to-last at district and then came back on Anthony's 16 points to outscore other GOL teams at state, they nearly did it again. Only Grant Union which scored 24 points to tie for sixth in the meet, scored more and Finished higher than Vale's 22 points and ninth place. That will smooth over another seventh at district. Brookings-Harbor, a team dominated by sophomores, won the low-scoring meet with 39 points, with four more teams over 30. On top of Anthony's points in the sprints, the Vikings won the mile relay in a meet record-tying time of 3:26.34. The Vikings got something out of each of those events. The mile relay team came through right on schedule. The individual splits had J.R. Smith running a 51.56 first leg. Dave Saunders following up at 52.78, Rich­ ard Hume going 52.03 and Anthony bringing it all back home with a 49.97 final quartermile. "If Anthony had run the open 440 like he ran the mile relay, he would have been all right." Johnson said, "But he's had a psychological thing about Hipp this year. Whenever he sees Hipp coming on, he tightens up a little—and you can’t do that very long in a race like the 440. "But it was good the way he came back in the 220 and mile relay," Johnson said. "Ed had a lot of pressure on him and he showed a lot of guts the way he came back.” Anthony finished second to Terry Hendrix of South Umpqua in the 220, turning a 23.03 to Hendrix' 22.67. Hipp was fourth in that event at 23.98. But the Nyssa star edged Dan Hammett of Toledo to emerge state champion in his specialty. Hipp ran a 49.48, Hammett clocked in 49.52 and Anthony, who qualified Friday with his best time of the year at 50.16, took fourth in the finals at 50.82. still below his state championship time of the year before (51.15). Nyssa coach Glenn Walker had his meet spoiled in qualifications for the very first running event—the 440 relay—and the Bulldogs fi­ nished below his expecta­ tions with 14 points. “We dropped the baton." Walker said, "and we were 16,046 in training In Oregon that could be affected by the proposed increase. Mrs. Arndt noted that increases totaling a little more than 30 percent have been mandated by Congress in the past three years. A 22.7 percent increase was passed over President Ford's veto in 1974, and an eight percent increase became effective last October 1. "We hope the changes we are proposing to Congress today, will enable even more veterans to participate in the G. I. Bill program, which so greatly benefits the nation as ” well as the veterans serve,” she sdded. DANGER! Have You Looked At Your Tires Lately? The Life You Save May Be Your Own „ . 400 N.

VA estimates more than one million total trainees will be enrolled under VA programs nest fall. Currently there are of mouthwatering home­ grown vegetables. Among the most popular vegetables across the nation are tomatoes and peppers, which grow well in small home gardens. Others in­ clude radishes, onions, let­ tuce, and cucumbers. The choice depends on apace. But here's one suggestion for expanding a small area: By putting a fence around a garden, you more than double or triple the space because the fence itself supports climbers such as peas, cucumbers, pole beans, squash, and tomatoes /Uso, succession planting is a space-saving method of merit. But the home gardener's efforts can easily be de­ stroyed by such insect pests as thrips, mites, cucumber beetles, army worms, aphids, cutworms, wireworms, leaf­ hoppers, root maggots and many others. •PICKUPS Parts and Accessories (BO3) 372 3088 Americans are discover­ ing in this time of inflation that vegetable gardening ia one way to keep rising food coats down.

Mrs. Donna M. Arndt, Portland Regional Office Director, said the recom­ mended increase would also apply to VA's educational assistance programs for de­ pendents of veterans. The administration-pro­ posed increase would become effective October 1.1977, one year from the date of the last ¡•crease. Mrs. Arndt noted the proposed increase would raise the monthly allowance to $307 for a single veteran taking full-time training. A married veteran without chil­ dren would receive SJO4 per month under the proposal, and a veteran with a wife and one child would receive $416 per month. In another move to aid G. 1. Bill trainees. Mrs. Arndt said the present administration was reversing a decision by the former VA head and the prior administration seeking legislation to end VA's education loan program. Termination of the vete­ ran-student loan program, providing low interest, direct federal loans up to $1,500 for a normal academic year, had been recommended by the prior administration in draft legislation submitted to Con­ gress January 19. 1977. VA asked Congress today to continue the program under which the number of education loans to veterans has nearly doubled in the last year.

"That ruined the meet for us right there." he said. "It was nobody's fault—it was just one of those things." The Bulldogs went to state with the best qualifying time in the event from district, a 44-flat. and Walker was hoping not only to win it. but also to make a run for the record of 43.5. Clark Kido ran • 10.9 opening leg. the fastest Walker said he has ever gotten in the 440 relay, and Greg Moffis handed off to Don Lawrence at 21.8—seem, ingly in good shape to shoot for the record at the halfway point. But Lawrence missed con­ nections with Hipp on the final exchange and Hipp couldn't hold the baton. "Don actually took a dive at him." Walker ;aid. "but it just brushed JefTs hand. "The kids deserved to win it—they worked hard for it.” Walker said. "When they didn't, it ruined the meet for everyone we had there, not just the ones on the relay.” it turned out that Hipp was the only Bulldog to score with his first in the 440 and fourth in the 220. "The 440 was a good race,” Walker said. “I don't know where that kid from Toledo came from. If Jeff won by three inches, he was lucky. He won by a lean.” The rest of the Bulldogs— Ron King in the mile, Jose Delgado in the pole vault and intermediate hurdles. Brian Piercy in the high jump and the mile relay team—failed to win a place. Vale's Cindy Jones, the one local girl in the state meet, failed to place in the javelin. Rogue River ran away with the Girls champ­ ionship with 56 points to 36 for runner-up La Salle. Thursday, June 2, 1977 I I OFFICE a I a.m. - 5.00 p.m CLASSIFIED HOURS $ 9.00 $ Monday thru Friday .
