Forest Service Advisory Council

(Continued from Page 60) of Fish and Game. Soil Conservation Service, and other agriculture, livestock and sportsmen's group.

The Advisory Council commended the Forest Service in its progress to date and the orderly manner and approach being made to a highly complex and controversial problem.

Progress reviewed in other administrative programs included results of the 1952 fire season, timber disposal plans and access roads, livestoik range improvements and recreation.

Plans were made for a summer field inspectiorr to the Blacks Mountain and Burgess Springs experimental areas in Lassen County to view the results of advanced research in timber harvesting and livestock forage production.

- The value of the Advisory Council each year becomes more evident according to Hendee and Wyckoff. They said that outside advice is needed and helps the Forest Service to strengthen major policy decisions in research and administration programs.

Joe Hazard trims the story to the bone in the telling and thus contrives to etch emphasis on its drama.

On September l, lfl62, victorious Stonewall Jackson was pursuing the Union forces, in defeat at the Second Battle of Bull Run. Major General Isaac Ingalls Stevens was ordered by Pope, the Northern commander, to fight a rear-guard action with but 5,500 men and two small cannon. Jackson advanced with 20,000 able veterans.

The General Ike,of that day did not wait on defense. He led an attack on the oncoming Confederates, and he carried it through with tactics and temper to stop Jackson's warriors. In leading the charge, General Stevens paused once. It was to send a badly wounded young captain to the rear. The young officer was his son-

Ahead in a cornfield many of his men urere cut down by Confederate fire. A color-bearer fell. Stevens galloped up, seized the flag, and inspired the surviving men to re-forrn and charge on. Within the minute he was shot dead.
