Sierro-Goscode Logging Gonference In Sqcramenlo, Februcry 14-16

Whistle-Punks, Knot-Bumpers, Jammer-Punchers and Choker-Setters will be some of the "Woods-moirkeys" gathering at the Sierra-Cascade Logging Conference on February 14, 15 and 16 in Sacramento, according to James Coonan of the Calaveras Land and Timber Corporation and presiJent of the conference. These names are common to the 1500 loggers and lumbermen from California and southern Oregon who will attend, Coonan said. "-We are preparing for one of the largest gatherings in the nine-year history of the conference," he stated.

This will mark the first appearance of the Sierra-Cascade Logging Conference in Sacramento. For the past several years the loggers have met in Redding to express their ideas and display the huge equipment used in their profession.

John Weber, equipment chairman, said that the 1957 Loggerama, to be held on the State Fairgrounds racetrack, will display several million dollars worth of equipment in a giant parade on the last day of the conclave.

L. D. Wambold, conference manager, announced that the theme for the meeting will be "Young Growth and Young Ideas." Discussions on this general topic will be held in Governor's hall on the State Fairgrounds, with the equipment and material display in the Hobbies building.

The tentative program, late last month, with the speakers and some of their companies, included:

James Coonan, president; Governor Knight; Mayor Aze- vado; Bill Scofield; CFPA; Paul Donderson, WIrCB ; Dr. A. Kenneth Beggs, Stanford Research Institute; Warren Carleton, Winton Lumber Co. ; DeWitt Nelson; Charles A.
