Publishers Will Cut Production OREGON CITY (AP) -Publishers Paper Co.

has announced plans to reduce production by eliminating its second shift on July 12 for an indefinite period. Company president D. F. Williamson said some 100 workers will be laid off. He said the firm cannot get enough timber to keep REEDSPORT, Ore.

(AP) Friday's resignation of Reedsport's police chief, Stanley Harper, was followed within hours by the resignations of officer Richard Staley and police matron Barbara Priest. All resignations were effective immediately. Harper has taken a job as police chief in Jefferson, a town in Marion County. In his resignation, he cited "dissension within the city administration and a total lack of support from the city administrator." "I'm aware that certain individuals will read into my resignation an admission of some wrongdoing," he said. A variety of library services will become available Monday to Mid-Willamette Valley residents not now served by a library.

That is the date the newly-organized Chemeketa Cooperative Regional Library Service will start. It will serve the general population of Marion, Polk and Yamhill counties. The program is funded by a $177,629 federal grant. STARTING MONDAY anyone in the three-county area not served by a local library may order books from Salem Public Library by mail. Catalogues of available books will be mailed out this week to mail box holders.

Only cost to the borrower is the expense of mailing back the books. A new area-wide reference service will permit anyone with a question to be researched to seek an answer from the nearest library. If the answer cannot be supplied immediately locally, the question will be relayed to Salem Public Library or Chemeketa Community College library. COPIES OF magazine articles or pages from books also can be requested. Projectors and films may be borrowed for group meetings.

Persons who have cards for local libraries may borrow materials from any of the other participating libraries. Public libraries participating in the Regional Library Services network include Salem, Chemeketa Community College, McMinnville, Sheridan, Dallas, Monmouth, Silverton, Mount Angel, Falls Whey Becoming Wine in OSU Lab air patrol were serving coffee to Interstate 5 travelers at the Santiam Rest Area 15 miles south of Salem when they spotted the nude man and the boy floating on a log in the river. Major Alsip said the unidentified man had apparently stripped for swimming and lost his canoe when he attempted to re-enter it. Both canoe and clothing were swept downstream. The man and the boy were rescued by Patrolman Steve Craig, 15, son of Mrs.

Judith Craig, 522 Gerth St. NW, and another unidentified man, who pulled them to safety with a rope. The unidentified man later recovered the canoe as well. OSH Escapee Charged With Using Vehicle An escapee from Oregon State Hospital was arrested on Interstate 5 Friday near the Corvallis exit and charged with unauthorized use of a vehicle, state police said. Michael Highland, 23, was accused of stealing a car from Robert C.

Beard, 5460 Valview Drive, Turner, while the car was parked in the state highway shop parking lot in the 2800 block of State Street Friday morning. He apparently fled the hospital about 8 a.m. He was arrested about 11 a.m. when the car's engine blew up on the freeway, police said. Police said he and a hitchhiker jumped from the disabled car and ran down the freeway.

Smoke from the engine attracted a state trooper parked and the two men were arrested. The hitchhiker was later released. Portlander New Legion Commander Statesman Mows Sorvk ALBANY, Ore. Edward Stack, Portland, was elected Oregon Department commander of the American Legion during the closing hours Saturday of the 56th annual Legion convention, held in Albany. Stack previously held the office of vice commander.

Other state officers elected for 1974-75 were Thomas L. Galloway, Clatskanie, vice commander; Lawrence E. Reid, Portland, re-elected financial officer; Rev. Harvey Goodling, Corbett, reelected captain, and Lewis Ysgtad, Milwaukie, historian. Mrs.

Hugh Murchison, Pendleton, was elected department president of the Legion's auxiliary. In his closing remarks as 1973-74 commander, Andrew "Jack" Brown, former Salem resident now living in Medford, urged the returning Vietnam veterans to actively engage in a veterans' organization if they want benefits due them for their service. He said he was concerned with veterans' legislation proposed by the U.S. Congress. Opportunities for skilled work and education should be set as high national priorities, Brown said.

Medford was selected as site for the 1974-75 CORVALLIS, Ore. (AP) Little Miss Muffet would have been knocked right back on her tuffet if she had been eating whey from Dr. Hoya Y. Yang's Oregon State University enology laboratory. Enology is the science of wine making, and Yang is changing whey, the watery byproduct of cheese making, into wine.

Yang and his associate, Floyd W. Bodyfelt, OSU dairy extension specialist, have been spending a one-year, $39,000 Environmental Protection Agency grant to develop a satisfactory way to dispose of 25 billion pounds of heretofore worthless liquid produced annually in the United States in the manufacture of cheese. Still in the experimental stages, the wine tickles the olfactory system with a yogurt-like odor, and teases the tastebuds with a flavor not unlike a dry white wine. According to Yang, the liquid is 12 per cent alcohol by volume, the same as fcMUJRIt BOOT SHOP I PREHOLIDAV 0ol SOTE OH ALL SUG.E.ER CLOTHING Salem Area 1 i Fire Runs 1 Following are alarms answered by Salem area fire departments in which little or no damage was reported: SALEM FIRE DEPT.

Budget Fails In Albany Council Vote Statesman Nws Sorvic ALBANY, Ore. The proposed 1974-75 Albany city budget was defeated by the City Council on a second vote Saturday night.

The council, in a special budget meeting, originally tied 2-2 on the $9,178,297 budget. Councilmen Robert Jones and David Hayes voted in favor of the proposal and Councilmen Richard 01-sen and Don Haine opposed it.

Deadline for meeting those standards is Monday.

The Newberg City Jail, which also was threatened with closure because of substandard facilities, was upgraded to meet the deadline. Lesher said the Silverton jail will remain closed and new prisoners will be taken to the Marion County jail until the city builds a new holding facility sometime next year. Tentative plans call for the facility to be built as an addition to the police station, Lesher said. 1 RICHARD N. WEBER Salem Man Will Direct Atiyeh Race A Salem man, Richard N.

For every 10 pounds of cheese produced, 100 pounds of milk are needed. From the remaining 90 pounds of whey, about 10 gallons of wine can be produced. The research came as a result of the dairy industry asking the OSU scientists to develop a way to dispose of whey in a manner that would satisfy government pollution regulations. (Picture page 23.)
