Cerebral Palsy Society Sponsors !
Exhibit Of Cabin Made From Tree
A log cabin' of the modern va
riety made from the hulk of a
huge California Redwood tree, is
on exhibit today and tomorrow in
front of McClellan’s, on Clayton
street. The exhibit is being spon
sored locally by the Athens Cere
bral Palsy Society for the benefit
of their work helping cerebral
palsy patients.
The log cabin home is a com
plete three-room home built inside
a section of a giant Redwood tree
of the Sequoia Sempervirens spe
cies. Equipped with all modern
conveniences, including electric
refrigerator, fluorescent lighting
and other conveniences, the house
is transported on truck for exhibi
tion purposes.
1,900 Years Old
According to Keith Straiughan
and William Guidici, owners and
builders of the home, the tree
from which the huge log was
taken was 1,900 years old, 267 feet
to the top, and was 14 feet in dia
mreter at the stump cut. After the
tree was felled, this section was
cut 65 feet from the base of the
tree in order to have it small
enough to transport it on the
highway. This section, at the front
end of the log, is 8 feet wide and
9 feet 6 inches in height, and it is
53 feet in length.
Mr. Straughan went into the
woods and selected the tree from
the property of Hammond Lumber
Company at Eureka, Calif. To
build the home within the log it
was necessary to use hand tools
and hollow the huge hulk. Over
11,000 board feet of material was
removed after four months of
laborious effort. If the material
scrapped fromr the inside of the
tree could have been used, it
would have been enough to build
a five room house,
The house, completed after a
year’s work, is possibly the oldest
in existence as the material used
for its construction pre-dates the
stone and clay of the ancient
world before Christ.
Modern in All Respects
The interior of the house is
completely furnished in striking
modern colors and is decorated
with modern furniture, Mr. Strau
ghan, co-owner of the log cabin
on wheels, stated that his original
idea in building the home was to
prove to skeptical New Yorkers
that the giant Redwoods were ac
tually giants among trees. He re
ported that the tree house is pos
sibly one of thg best ways to im
agine and grasp the tremendous
size to which the California tree
grow.
A Californian by birth, WMr.
Straughan has been in the lumber
business for 17 years, working
abroad as well as in the United
States. .

Two would-be burglars traveled
out of Crawford yesterday at a
high rate of speed, according to
Chief of Police J. ¥, Mayo, ‘
The burglars, believed to be the
pair that took the car es a Colum-~ |
bla, S. C. sports editor, tried to
break into the Crawford Bus Sta
tion. Chief Mayo said he fired at
the pair, but they got away before
he could identify them. They
headed toward Augusta, he added,
One person was fined $16.50
and another forfeited the same
amount for speeding, while one
speeder was brought before Re
corder’s Court Judge Olin Price
today. Arresting officers said the
speeder was arrested on Broad
street last night for traveling at
40 m, p. h. The other speeder for
feited his appearance bond when
he failed to appear to face the
charge,
Willie James Washington,

after being found guilty of hitting
a small colored boy in the head

Injuncfive Action '
ALTANTA, March 21 — Injune~
tive actions against a number of
furniture dealers, used auto deal~
ers, retailers of other items of
consumer durable goods, and some
service establishments will be
filed in the near future, it was
announced today by James F. Hol
lingsworth, Atlanta district dir
ector of the Office of Price ‘Sta
bilization.
iSez‘vic:e“uubdu:hymleuu, such n;
filling stations, cleamers, and
laux;grlu, covered by éefllnl
Price Regulation 34; used auto
dealerships, covered by CYR 83;
eating establishments, covered by
'CYR 11, and retailers of consumer
durable goods, covered by CYR 7,
are among those types of busines
ses which are required to file their
ceiling prices with the Atlanta,
district office of OPS and maintain
zmdd deliver pertinent business re
cords.
“Despite repeated notification of
their responsibility,” Hollings
worth said, “a number or retailers
who went into business since the
effective date of the regulations
involved have failed to comply
with their provisions. As these
cases are uncovered, we have no
alternative but to resort to court
action.”
The injunctive actions, being
prepared by the district office’s
Enforcement Branch, may result
in violating retailers being res
tricted from further business op
eration until they have come into
compliance with the regulations,
Hollingsworth pointed out.
