developed nationally to
complement the traditional
physical and mental fitness
program of the national youth
organization; and was tested in
four pilot projects earlier this
year. In accepting the leadership
of the program, Richmond said
that the most important fact to
recognize about drug abuse is that
it is a symptom of other
underlying problems. Scouting's
efforts to prevent drug abuse are
aimed at eliminating conditions
that foster it. Richmond also
pointed out that Scouting does
not expect to solve the drug abuse
problem, but that it can apply the
resources of the committee
members to make more
contributions toward the ultimate
solution of the problem within
the methods of the organization.
A group of volunteers and
professional scout leaders
including Sel Vander Wegen,
Council President; Dean Palmer,
Council Commissioner; and James
Phillips, Scout Executive, will
attend a regional orientation Oct.
22 and 23 at the Ridpath tlotel in
Spokane.
Operation Reach was
developed after a national
in-depth study of the drug abuse
problem in wide discussions with
young people and adult
authorities. The program is
designed to be used by young
people on their own and on their
friendsbehalf. It is not just
anothereducational project on
drugs, but an action plan,
Richmond said.

cups at a recent district meeting. Making the presentation is
Bill Pearce, the new District Executive for the Tumwater

the School Night for Scouting which helped put the district
over the goal of 150 Cub Scouts, 107 Boy Scouts and 18
Explorers. The district now has seven Scout Troops, seven
Cub Packs and four Explorer Posts.
Jaycee Group
The Bellingham Junior
Chamber of Commerce today sent
out by mail several thousand
questionnaires to members of the
Legislature, working press,
Precinct Committeemen, and a
vast cross section of registered
voters throughout the state of
Washington to determine the
popularity of a Presidential
Primary for Washington.
Paul Elvig of Ferndale and
Past-Vice-President of the
Washington State Jaycees will
chair the initial polling phase.
If a broad section of the State
electorate indicate approval of a
Presidential Primary, the
Bellingham Jaycees will file an
initiative measure January 7,
1972, with the Secretary of State
to seek such a primary following
the same guide lines, format, and
time schedule that is presently
used in the State of Oregon.
Presently the method of
delegate selection is through the
precinct caucus concept which, at
best, is hit and miss.
The Jaycees expect to meet
with elected state officials during
the next two weeks, examine the
fifty state election laws for
various suitable election codes,
and to prepare the exact text of
the proposed initiative measure.
The Bellingham Junior
Chamber of Commerce has
adopted the Presidential Primary
as its major project for 1971-1972
because they feel that the
Presidential selection process
should involve all the people.

in the Jaycee Presidential Primary
survey should write: The

Formation of a special public
information subcommittee
assigned to explain the provisions
and implementation schedule of
the state's new forest tax law was
announced at a meeting of the
Washington State Forest Tax
Committee in Spokane.
The seven-member
subcommittee was appointed by
State Sens. Martin J. Durkan and
Harry B. Lewis, co-chairmen of
the State Forest Tax Committee.
Chairman of the new public
information group is Rep. Henry
Backstrom of Arlington.

Beams
At WSU
Two Washington State
University researchers said this
week that research conducted at
WSU proves that high-strength
beams can be made "with
complete assurance" from low
grade lumber.
Roy Pellerin and Dr. Dee
Strickler of the Wood Technology
Section in WSU's College of
Engineering Research Division
said a tension proof-loading
technique has been developed at
WSU that supports their assertion.
The WSU researchers spent the
past summer testing the reliability
of the technique.
In a test conducted this week
at WSU, more than 30,000
pounds of concentrated load were
required to break a glue-laminated
timber beam, and the WSU
researchers say similar structural
members of 16 laminated
two-by-six inch boards can
withstand a minimum weight of
28,000 pounds. The proofloading
technique was demonstrated to
representatives of industry' and
the American Institute of Timber
Construction, which supported
the project.
Strickler and Pellerin spent
several weeks during the summer
handpicking about 20,000 board
feet of two-by-sixes to be used in
the tests. Selection was made at
four western Oregon laminating
plants.
The WSU researchers tested
24 beams, each 40 feet long and
24 inches deep, comprising an
initial weight of about 1,200
pounds each. Only the two
outer-most tensile laminations of
each beam were subjected to the
proofloading technique•
The individual two-by-sixes
intended for critical areas of the
beams were purposely selected
from lower quality material than
is presently accepted in the
laminating industry.
"The idea," they said, "Is that
if a board can withstand a
proofload once, it can do so m
