Marn, Great Fals. , be to Watch THE 17th St. N. After attending Denver University and the University of Colorado at Boulder, Ken served in the Navy in World War II. After his discharge, he received his bachelor's degree in music education from MSU. He taught school at Manhattan and then went into business with his father in 1952. It was natural that the business be called "Ken Kaiser Music." He left in 1959 to pursue sculpture, and his father is carrying on the business. Kaiser was called one of the most promising sculpture students at the University of Oregon. His mother says it is amazing to her how he "sees" the figure in a block of wood. Kaiser has also worked in clay and metals. With a recent purchase of large metal kiln, he plans to do a great deal of metal sculpture this winter. One of the most interesting facts about his sculpture work is that he has advanced so fast. He did over 40 giant figures in nine months. He'd never used a chain saw until almost by accident he discovered early last year that it is perfectly fitted to his talent. He gave up his piano business, the article says, and toured Oregon for the chain saw distributor, exhibiting his artistry at such events as the Portland Rose Festival and a major logging congress. He then was commissioned by Ray and Marylee Thompson to carve his figures at the Thompsons' famous "Trees of Mystery" grove, a noted tourist attraction near Requa, Calif.
