This issue marked the end of the name, Redwood Rancher, and this month the publication will come out under the title Redwood West. (The Redwood Rancher has been published since July of 1946). EXECUTIVE EDITOR BILL SOBERANES Publisher of Redwood Magazine.

Roger Snowden Executive Editor and Feature Columnist, Bill Soberanes. Redwood West will be published monthly, and it will cover all of Northern California from San Francisco to the Oregon line. This magazine will also go through the Sacramento and San Joaquin Valley areas, and on through Northern California's metropolitan areas. B. S.

MAN ON THE GO With my daily column in the Argus-Courier, my dual position of Executive Editor and Feature Columnist with Redwood West, and my unique spot as weekly columnist on the Anderson Valley Advertiser (published in Boonville, California) you can see why 1 refer to myself as B. S. Man on the Go. On top of all this, I'm still working on my book about people I've met and the unusual circumstances under which many of these meetings took place. Many of the adventures and misadventures in my book and in my other publications will be based around my unique trade-mark Columnist Soberanes has been photographed with and has interviewed more famous, infamous, usual and unusual people than anyone in the world.

To anyone who doubts my claim or wishes to challenge it. I will be willing to show my scrapbooks that contain these pictures and the information that goes with them. ANDY BERTUCCI JOHNNY PODESTO A short time ago we asked if anyone knew what happened to Johnny Podesto, the colorful football player, who once made headlines under the title of Podesto from Modesto. From Andy Bertucci of Mattei Brothers we learned these facts Podesto is still in Modesto, and we are happy to report he's a financial success. Podesto, who first gained fame as a football player at St.

Mary's under coach Red Strader, went on to play for the immortal Alonzo Stagg at the College of Pacific (under the wartime V-12 program) and later played for the Marines in the South Pacific. All the above information was given to us by Andy who added, he's married, has live children, is part owner of a large tallow company in Modesto, and is still as colorful as ever. In case you haven't guessed, we'd like you to know that Andy and Johnny Podesto are old buddies. THEY REMEMBERED HERBERT HOOVER .01 .21 QUESTION: What are fixing bnriaia?

Rotarians Told About Educating Blind Children This is a time of shibboleths, Dr.

Isabel Grant, of Los Angeles told the Petaluma Rotary Club yesterday noon. The great American shiii'oleth today, she said, is "The Great Society." "But our society will not be great." she continued, "until everyone has food, shelter and education. IK ifiiiiK worth your wait in Nl I I II I lotiiHl IliioNiii iii liiiil 1 'ninuM i II JFA I I 1 Hi!

She has made three trips around the world and visited 43 countries, living with the people and getting to know them. Jn 1959 she took a sabbatical from her teaching position in Los Angeles to make one of her world trips. Laler she obtained a Fullbright scholarship and spent two years in Pakistan. During this period she visited Nepal, and white there helped the Rotary Club set up a school for blind children. Through her efforts a Peace Corps volunteer is now in Xepa! running this school for blind children.

First she said she had to break down the fallacy that blind chiil-dren cannot be educated. Then her specific job was the training of teachers how to educate blind children. Now that she is retired her self-imposed job is the collecting of books in braille and sending them abroad Dr. Frank "Bob" Foster was program chairman for the day and President Roger Pearson presided. Preceding the program Dr.

Al Richards gave a brief autobiography. BEATLES RETURN LONDON The screams of teen-agers almost drowned out the roar of a transatlantic airliner today as the Beatles flew to New York for a two-week American tour. Chevrolet tmpsli Sport Coups, One of the most unusual birthday parties on record was held at Andresen's Western Avenue Tavern on August 10. The party was in honor of our late President Herbert Hoover. For years the boys at Andresen's have held a party on Hoover's birthday, with all the trimmings, including a large cake with Hoover's name scrawled across it.

When Hoover died, some folks thought this custom would be terminated, but as you know it hasn't been. Hosts for Hoover's Birthday 'Party Hank Andresen, Tony Andresen, Vern Knobe and Al CTisbee. POW MY FAVORITE One of my favorite TV shows is "Pow." and the man who masterminds this show is Rolf Peterson, whom I hope to interview in the not too distant future. ON THE POLITICAL FRONT After the last Petaluma City Council meeting, Ken Styles stood up, complimented the council on being a fast moving group, and volunteered to help them if they decide to put the sewer bond up before the voters. Now, it looks like Ken will be one of the strongest city council candidates next time around, and he already has the promised support of recently elected councilman, Phil Joerger.

In the meantime Ken is making friends, keeping in the limelight and actually already campaigning for a seat on the council. A lot of exposure is an important factor for any candidate who hopes to get elected today and if you doubt this, stop and remember what happened at our last election. HERE'S A GEM Mrs. Ron Lucchesi (she's a meter maid, he's a barber) bought her husband a large, fancy wardrobe for his birthday. The bag wouldn't fit inside their car, so the man tied it on the roof.

When Mrs. Lucchesi attempted to enter the car, she made this discovery. The gent, who secured the wardrobe bag on the roof, also tied her car up in such a fashion that she could not open any of the doors. Just a wild afterthought, but I can't help wondering Jf Mrs. Lucchesi ever gave this guy a parking ticket? DIVISIONS There are three divisions Full beards, goatees and mustaches.
