The Douglos fir that grows in Oregon's rain belt is the finest on the f.ace of the earth. That's why we use it.
The mills in which we make our plywood are models of efrciency in the industry.
The people who work with us are skilled, interested, productive-with pride in their jobs.
From these ingredients of materials, machines and men comes APMI plywood; extedor and interior panels that carry double marks of quality-the DFPA grademark and our own trademark.
Your inquiries are welcomed at our general offices, or at APMI sales warehouses.

In typing this semi-monthly message to thoae unfortu' nate oneE who read this column, I find entirely removed all temptation to etick another oar into the MacArthurTruman debate.
What is there to be said? Everything the tongue of man could say has been said in praise of MabArthur; and the tide of condemnation of Harry Truman is something never before dreamed of in America. Neither side needs any help from this column.
With one small exception. It would be wrong to fail to note that the great Britisher Churchill has given the General the highest praise of all. He said that MacArthur is a "great soldier, and a great'statesmant" That is praise indeed from a statesman whose high place in history is already assured.

A visitor dropped into a small and unpretentious church one Sunday morning just as the preacher was announcing his text. He stood in the rear for a few minutes, and then, when the preacher read: "We have left undone those things we ought to have done, and have done those things which we ought not to have done," the stranger smiled and took a seat, saying audibly: "Thank the Lord; I've found my crowd at last."
And my old friend Marshall Terrell tells me the story about the minister who wore a bandage on his chin at the Sunday services. After the service he explained to several of his flock that he had been concentrating on his sermon when he cut his chin. One old sister said: "Reverend, too bad you didn't concentrate on your chin and cut your sermon."
The tiny girl had been naughty, and her minister father had punished her by making her eat dinner at a table in the corner of the family dining room, while the rest of the family sat at the dining table as usual. Her father opened the meal with solemn nraye-, and when he finished the little girl in the corner chimed in: "And thank You, dear Lord, for preparing a table for me in the presence of mine enemies." * *
"The meek shall inherit the earth," said the pessimist; "but it won't do them any good, because the women who made them meek will soon take it away from them."
Congrersman Norris Cotton, of New Hampshire, ie out with an intereating tuggetion. He wants to change the name of the dollar, in view of ite present value, and call it the "dollarette."

Perhaps the most frequently repeated gag that came out of thc MacArthur episode was about Truman sending a five percenter to greet a hundred percenter; and about a five percenter being able to 6re a hundred percenter'
Louis B. Mayer, movie magnate' went into Toots Shor's famous eatery and drinkery in New York, and said to Toots: "I hope you have some good food for us." And Toots replied: "Listen, Crumbum-I've seen some of your pictures !"

The late Henry Ford never used a private ofhce of his own, and explained why. He said he could always get out of another fellow's office faster than he could get the other fellow out of his. * *
To say that a kid.is as "bright as a dollar" is still a compliment. But to say that he is "sound as a dollar" is something else again. * *
Clare Booth Luce is credited with the following slick one: "In the final analvsis there is no other solution to a nran's problems but the honest day's work, the day's honest decisions, the day's generous utterance, and the day's good c'leed.
Jefferson once remarked that we rest our heads contentedly on the pillow of ignorance which the Creator has made so soft for us because He knew we should have so mrch use for it.
And finally we have heard about a man who has learned the secret of staying young*; he lies about his age.
James F. Byrnes, now Governor of South Carolina, recently told an audience in his home state that we now have a three-party political system in this country: the Demccrats, the Pendercrats, and the Republicans.
Political Washington has long been noted for the employment of "ghost writers," but there are some folks there who evidently don't employ any. Ghosts don't use that kind of language.

Annucl Rcpoft 1950
Tacoma, April l2-l)uring the past five years, Weyerhaeuser Timber Company has invested nlore than 100 million doltars in new plants, ecluipment and roads. This is shorvn in ttre cotnpatty's annttal rcl)ort, issuecl t<lday. In 19.50 akrne, suclr investments by tlre company totaled tnore than 19 million dollars.
The annual report shorvs also that Weyerhaeuser last year paid $49,616,836 in wages and salaries cotnparerl with $48,53(r,442 the previotts year. At the end of the year, nunrbcr of enrpkryecs totaled 13,()09 comparcd rvith 12,70S at the end of 1949.
'l'axcs lraid by the contpanl' totaled $25'724'591 in 19'50' amounting to $1,1t90 per employee. Its tax bill in l()49 u'as $19,580,693.
S:tles of forest prodttcts <ltrrirrg thc ycar totalecl $176,5tt7'O17. Net inconrc u'as reporte<l :rt $32,90tt,.59.5 rtr $5'27 per share, a<ljusted to reflect a stock slllit of tu'o ftlr tlne dttring the year.
In his annual rcp()rt to shitrehrtl<lers, J' lt. \\reyerhaeuser, Jr., llresirlcnt <lf the cotlll):tt1v, pointe<l ottt cncouraging gains made by new and exllan<lecl lllants.
"The Springfield (( )regon ) sarvnrill, rvhich came into production in 1949, increased its outpttt steadily throughout 1950," he said, "and is expected to show further imp:'ovement in the coming year. In 19.50 the plywood pllant at T,<rngvierv (Wash.) produced 23 yter cent tnore plyrvood.
A greater tluantity of kraft pulp was Produced at l-ongview, and the Springfield container board plant which started in .\ugust, 1949, improved steadily in efficiency."
'fhe money reinvested in new plants, erluipment and roads is highly significant, Weyerhaeuser said.
"In reinvesting income to lluild a pernranent, profitable lrusiness, geared to peacetirne demand, the cotnpany has strengthened its ability to help trreet any national etnergcncy. Sh<luld the need arise, conversion from peace to war procluction can be made on instant notice. The very things that trclp llrovide American prosperity in peace acld to the rration's security in national emergencies."

Transpogition
There is an old Btory, but never before printed in this column, that has always appealed to me aE very funny after a fashion.
It concerns Sir Percival, one of King Arthur's Knights of the Round Table. It seems that this gallant Knight was trying to find his way back to England after escaping from hostile hands, and found himself in the mountains, while a terrible blizzard blew and the snow became so deep he could hardly make headway through it. When night came he was exhausted, and half ftozen, and was given up to despair over the hopelessness of the situa' tion in which he found himself.
And then, just when all seemed lost, he was found by a great St. Bernard dog, whose business it was to help travelers in the mountains, after the fashion so well known in song and story. The brandy the dog carried on his collar
did much to revive the half frozen Sir Percival, and he sprawled on the back of the great dog, holding to his back with both hande wrapped in thc shaggy coat, while thc dog worked his way with his burden, through the deep drifts of snow.
And so they came to a mountain inn. Those were dan' gerous days, and innkeepers had to be very careful who entered at night, lest their throats be cut and their tills robbed. So when the innkeeper heard the feeble shouts of the gallant Knight, he opened the second story window, and inquired who was there' and what was wanted. Sir Percival said, "I am Sir Percival, Knight of King Arthur's Round Table, I have been to the wars, became lost in the snow. am half frozen, and beg to be admitted to your inn."
Ancl the innkeeper replied, "All right. I shall admit you, FOR I WOULD NOT EVEN TURN AWAY A KNIGHT. ON A DOG LIKE THIS.''

Ncw Dcvclopmcntr in Timbcr Handling
At the invitation of Western Dry Kiln Company, Oakland, a group of Pacific Coast plywood manufacturers and distributors were invited to hear an address by the guest speaker, Ralph Symonds of Australia. Mr. Symonds has an international reputation as an engineer and designer in utilizing of timbers, and was invited to America to discuss the possibilities of introducing some of lris buil<ling methods in this country.
Mr. Symonds opencd the discussion by describing in detail numerous developments made by him sincc 1922 trr the present date covering thc manufacture of large sheets of waterproof plywood conring from the hot plates in sheets without a joint in thc facc in size up to 7'x25', and described a plan now in course of production to manufacture similar sheets 5l' in length by 9'B' high. Specirr,en sheets were on display of other thicknesses ranging from 'l/s" d.own to l/l(f'. The general reaction was that of amazement at the precision work on the pancls dislllaycd. It was ast<lunding to see the "Guarantecd I-abels" that rvere usecl for panels faced rvith highly figured exotic veneers, such as burls, crotch mahogany and numerous other veneers, which in this country are regarded as almost impossible to guarantce against crazing and chccking of the face veneers, and any other defects that are commoll to laminated and veneer panels.

one operation (requiring eleven unskilled men), and a rrrantrfacturing time ol 22 ntinutes. This compares with thc American techni<1ue of rrranufacture clf a similar arch requiring skilled labor in from 5 to 8 opcrations, and a time lag of 3 to 4 days.
Negotiations are in Process for installation of a plant on the I'acific Coast for California timllcr interests, and the fabrication in Australia of a complete building of 30,000 sq. feet, which will be transported to San Francisco. This building will have a roof of thin u'aterproof plyrvood in huge sheets.

San Francisco Hardwood md Plywood Firm Hag Modern Equipment and Facilitieg
'l'he first indication of industry observed lly Southerrr Pacific rail passengers approaching San Francisco frorn thc South is the new plant of the Jones Hardwood and Plywood Company. Located on their 3f acre tract, with spur track, they have been serving Northern California manufacturers and consumers of lrardu'o<tcls for almost thirty years.
The company is owned and operated by Nels<-rn li. Jones who started in the hardwood lumber business in San Francisco in l9l2 and organized the present company in 1922. He is rvell known to most manufactttrers of hardwood lumber and plywood in the United States as well as in many foreign manufacturing centers. He is an ardent yachtsman and is prominent in coastwise yachting circles where his various yachts have rvon many trophies.
On April l, 1951, Ed T. Cryer joined the Jones llardHecting Engine contcining Eight Gas burners with 1,000,000 b,t.u. ccpccity. Insulqted cnd qir riqht building affords maximum tempercttures with minimum loss oI hedt through rcdiction, etc.
woorl and l'lywood Company in thc capacity <tf general manafJer. Iid Cryer has served the hartlrvood consurning trade in the West for the past thirty years and has a rvide circle of friends in the industry. The addition of Mr. Cryer to thc force of the company rounds out an efficient harcl hitting organization.
Iiarly in 1950, Fred Seike becante associated rvith this company and is now acting in the capacity of general superintendent and kiln operator. Mr. Seike has been active in the hardwood and softwood lumber business for morc than twenty years.
After serving the Armed Forces and Maritirr,e Service during World War II, F. W. Evans returned to the Jones Hardwood and Plywood Company as office manager ancl controller. Mr. Evans became a member of the staff in 1937.

ern equipment afford a high percentage of efficiency of operation of this plant. Designed to serve industrial buyers, boat builders and shipyards, the elimination of retail trade places us in a position to offer economical distribution of imported hardwoods and plywoods. Our cable address "Hardwood" is known in all foreign lands where hardrvoods are produced," Mr. Jones states.
"In addition to carrying stocks of practically all varieties of commercially used hardwoods, we have cars continuously being loaded with hardwoods and plywoods at the principal producing centers in the United States. Rarely does a day pass when mahogany and other varieties of products from the Philippines, Africa, and Central America, or ash, oak and birch from Japan, are not afloat or in rail transit to us. These imports and domestic shipments are sorted, dried, and delivered to the consuming trade.
"By carrying ample stocks for immediate demand and having quantities of hardwoods and plywoods in transit continuously, we are able to offer quick deliveries to industrial plants, shipyards and factories."

Cu$r Put on Luxury Homa
Washington, May 4-The government today placed building controls on "luxury" homes-dwellings costing over $35,00G-and on big apartment houses, major factories and public buildings.
The National Production Authority decreed that thcse structures may not be started without its specific approval.
Industrial structrrres and public projects fall urrder NI'A's contrul when morc than 25 tons of steel are usctt, extettding goverrtrnent construction regulations over such projegts as schools, clrurches, hospitals, highways, bridges, rvater an<l sewer systems, pipelines, public utility and railroad construction.
Thc order was NPA's first direct colttrol applied to residenti:rl construction. Previous restraints have becu indirect -such as the credit controls governing dorvrr payments and rnortgage tcrms.
As of today, however, NPA permissiotr mttst bc obtained to start any single-family residence rvhose estimated cost exceeds $35,000. The same is true for any apartment structure in excess of three stories and basement.
The requirement for Federal approval on projects using 25 tons of steel applies to all construction jobs except those covered by other NPA controls.

Redwood Region Conservation Council Completes Formal Organization
San Francisco, April 30:-The Redwood Region Conservation Council has completed its formal organization by adopting byJaws and a program for the coming year, according to an announcement made to its members by E. T. F. Wohlenberg, chairman of the Council.
The Redwood Region Conservation Council was formed May 24, 1950 under the sponsorship of the California Reclrvood Asso,ciation to promote wider public interest in its various forest conservation projects, including promotion of the rapidly growing tree farm movement.
President Wohlenberg declared in his notice to members that the activities of the organization have met with such approval from the public and the timber industry that it has become necessary to provide it with a more formal status to enable it to forward its growing program.
This program will include extension of its cooperation with the California Fire Prevention Committee, the State Division of Forestry, and other public and governmental agencies interested in the prevention and control of forest fires. The program also calls for close cooperation with the State Division of Forests in a wider appreciation of the Forest Practices Act and its better enforcement.
The program also is aimed at expansion of the Redwoo<l Circles as active chapters of the Council. Under the nerv by-laws, while the Circles retain autonomy in the communities where they operate, their membets automatically become members of the Redwood Region Conservation Council. Chairmen of the Circles become directors of the Council.
The newly elected board of directors are: R. W. Matthews, Brizard-Matthews Machinery Company, Eureka; A. O. Lefors, lfammond Lumber Company, Samoa; Russell Ells, Willits Red.wood Products Company, \A/illits; Derby Bendorf, Pacific Lumber Compa.rry, Scotia; E. T. F. Wohlenberg, Masonite Corporation, Ukiah; F. C. Riley, Simp_ son Logging Company, Klamath;C. Russell Johnson, Union f.umber Company, Fort Bragg; Edward Carriger, Santa Cruz Lumber Company, Santa Cruz; Russell Foote, Farm Advisor, Ukiah ; Jack Fairhurst Lumber Company, Eureka; Ed Lessard, Crag Lumber Company, Smith R-iver; Mrs. Helen Ingels, Potter Valley.
The following were elected officers: E. T. F. Wohlen_ berg, president; Sherman A. Bishop, California Redwood Association, vice president; Ben S. Allen. California Red_ rvood Association, secretary; -]ack Fairhurst, treasurer.
Headquarters for the Council rvill be maintained in San Francisco and Eureka.

Annual Report to Subgcriben
\(/. D. Hogenstein, Forest Engineer
Forest Conservction Committee of Pocific Northwest Forest Industries Multnomoh Hotel, Portlond, Ore., Morch W,1951
The busiest forestry year of the Douglas fir industry was 1950.
There was more timber harvested, more successful fire protection in proportion to acreage operated, more foresters in the woods, better wood utilization, more trees planted, more forestry opportunities studied, and more money spent for long-term forestry than in any of the 125 years of the Dougias fir industry.
Thc year saw a log harvest of about 12 billion board feet, the highest on record. This withdrawal from the huge wood storehouse of the region was converted into a great variety of useful products. It supplied more than a quarter of the entire w.ood needs of the people of the Unitect States. This forest'harvest .brought niarly a billion and a half dollars into Western Washington and Oregon for wages, supplies and materials, transportation, taxes, and forest management.
The year saw the increasing trend of more complcte wood use emphasized by the begining of construction or actual operation of 6 more hardboard plants, subsisting primarily on leftovers from other primary manufacturing. Seven new plywood plants including those designed for partially decayed low-grade logs for utility grades of plywood were begun. Several hundred sawmills, of all sizes, were renovated and improved to furnish more products and more jobs from a given amount of raw material through closer utilization. Such improvements included hydraulic barkir:g of logs, installation of prestolog machines, addi-
tion of gang saws for utilizing small logs, m:rnufacture.of pressed - wood briquettes, remanufacturing facilities for turning out secondary products like furniture subassemblies, box material and laminated wood and a number of new chipping plants to utilize sawmill ancl plywood leftovers for pulp chips. The forest industries added to the total power resources of the region by installing nrore steam-turbine capacity utilizing sawdust and bark for fuel. In 40 conrmunities in the region the surplus power from sawmill generators is an important part of electricity available for domestic consumption. Wax production from Douglas fir bark became an accomplishetl fact. More shingle-torv was nranufactured as a lly-prodtrct of shingle mills.
All the above increases in rvood use arc forest cotlscrvation at its best.
The ultimate in wood use has by no mearls l>ecn rc:rchcd, but good markets and successful merchandising of lowgrade wood show how the forest industries can continue to contribute to the economy ttsing ferver trees to provide cacl-r unit of forest products.
The 1621 forest fires on state and private lands in 1950 lrurned only 21,733 acres, or 0.14 per cent of the area protected, Considering the acreage harvested ancl the number of people in the woods, this is a most satisfactory fire record. It amounts to less than half the area bttrned over irr the prcvious year rvhen there was at least l0 per cent less operating area exposed during the fire season. The

orincipal reason for the excellent protection record is the iompiete awareness by the forest ihdustries of the powder keg ir, which they opirate during the dry season and their own well organiied 6re protection in cooperation with the state forestry departments and private fire associations.
Ten more companies in the region employed foresters to manage their'properties in 1f50. Thire'are now 80 companie-s employing-foresters as tree growers. The total number of forestcrs cmployed as forest managers, forest products technicians, cxecutives, logging engineers and in production now totals 650. Experienced foresters were in short supply during the year.
Nature is still the industrv's chief forester, but trec planting occurred on 13,045 aires of private land in 1950. This is the highest year on record. Most of the trecs camc from the induitry's nursery at Nisqually, Washington. On top of the record planting, an additional 4,071 acres were diiect seeded, or a lotal of.17,116 acres artificially reforested. Despite record crops in several of the region's nttrseries, the demand for planting stock exceeded the supply. In thc fall of 1950 thc first trees grown from certified seed at the induslry's nurscry u,ere shipped. The industry started its certified seed program in 1949 when the companies contractirrg for stock from the industry's nursery began collecting their ou'n seed. At the time this was announcetl as a nr'ilestone in American forestry, and it is continuing.
One couldn't visit private land anyrvhere in the Douglas fir region between the spring and fall of 1950 without running into forcstcrs examining lands for-acquisition, inventorying growing stock, planning artificial reforestation, strrdying -fire llrotection problems, .laying. out slash. burning plans, nrarkirrg immatttre stands for thinning, shaping tuti tice farms, or -just studying how a specific problem in niturr,l reforcstation, rvood utilization or forest protection coulrl lre solved.
Tabulating the money spent for direct forest fire protec-
tion, artificial reforestation, inventories and surveys, acquisition of cutover land and immature timber, utilization studies, insect and disease detection and control, rodent baiting, aerial photography and mapping, establishing growth and yield plots, forest engnieering to lay out efficient harvesting systems, soil studies and research, and salaries and uage.s of forestry personnel, it is conservatively estimated that the Douglas fir industry spent nearly l5 million dollar.: in 1950. This is more than one per cent of the total value of forest products produced in the region that year.
Those are the highlights of the industry's busiest forestry year. l'ollowing are some of the details.
The Executive Board certified I I new tree farms in 1950 an,d cancelled 6 for non-compliance with the landowner's' pledges. The net increase in tree.farms was 4O7,018 acres, or a 12.4 per cent increase over 1949. Certified tree farms at the end of 1950 totalled 3,677,710 acres or 33 per cent of the industrial forest land of the region.
In 1950 the staff made the most intensive tree farm inspection ever made. It required 4 man-months and an individual report was tabulated on each of the 55 industrial tree farms which had been certificd to the end of 1948. The data were for the calendar vear 1949. This is the first full opportunity the industry has had to appraise tree farm pertormance,
The follorving data show what these 55 tree farms acconrplished in 1949. Area burned over front all causes was 2,250 acres, or 0.07 per cent of the acreage protected. This is less than one-third of the maximum allowable burn under acceptable protection standards. Counting only those snags felled f.or hazard reduction, there were 152,626 of. them felled at an average cost of $1.33. During the year 127 miles of fire protection roads rvere constructed at an average cost of $1328. The total road mileage used exclusively for forest protection on these tree farms is estirnated at 10,000 miles. Other ne\\' protection facilities

It was Keats who wrote: "I had an idea that a man might pasa a very' pleasant life in this manner: Let him on a certain day rcad a ccrtain pagc of full Pocsy or distilled Prose. and let him wander with it, and muae upon it, and refect from it, and dream upon it: until it becomes staleBut will it do so? Never. Whcn a man hag arrived at a ccrtain ripeness in intellect any one grand and spiritual paosage serves him as a starting-post towards all the 'two and thirty' Palaces. How happy ie such a voyage of conception, what delicioue, diligent indolence t
Rembrcrndt '
Rembrandt belongs to the breed of artiets which can have no posterity. His place is with the Michelangelos, the Shakespeares, the Beethovens. An artistic Prometheus, he stole the celestial fire, and with it put life into what was inert, and expressed the immaterial and evasive sides of nature in his breathing forms.-Emile Michel.
Husbcrrd crnd WiIe
Every man expects his wife to be a sweetheart, a valet, a chef, an audience, and a trained nurse. Now we will hear from the female of the species: A woman should have 6ve husbands, an intellectual companion, a muscular toiler, a financial genius, a practical plumber and electrician, and at least one romantic playboy.
Trecrdmill
Automatically he opened the Book and inride the front cover there was a notation that read: "If businers is bad, lead Matthew, 3:16, page 521. If you are tired, read Luke, 4:22, page 682. lf lonely, read the 23rd Psalm."
Sincc bueinese WAS bad, and since he war tired, and aleo lonely, he turned to the pagcs mentioned, and read the three passages. Just below the third patEagc, he found another note. It read: "If you are etill lonely, call Main 7624, and ask for Daisy."
' The speaker paused in his addrees, and remarked: "Gentlemen, any medium of advertising is worth trying."
Wrong Plqce
The customer in the dark looking eating place across the tracks from the depot, asked the waiter with the dirty apron:
"What do you suggest I eat?"
"Spaghetti," said the waiter, "but not here."
Idecls
"Some speak of ideals as being only girls' dreams' On the opposite, high ideals are lifelike portraits, seen in advance. Only the greatest minds, living in an age of tyranny could see in prophecy the portrait of a free people. Instead of being a romantic dream, an ideal is often a long mathematical calculation by an intellect as lucid as that of Euclid. Idealism is not the ravings of a maniac, but it is the calm geometry of life. Ideals try our faith, as though to show us that nothing is too good to be true. In noble ideals there is something aggressive. They are not aggressive like an army with gun and slrcar, but aggressive like the sun which coaxes a June out of a winter. All great truths are persistent. Each form of right is a growing form. All high ideals will be realized. This, one perceives who takes a long view, the triumph of ideality over apathy, indolence, and dust. There is nothing in history, dark as much of it is, to check the belief that man will at last be overcome by his highest ideals."-David Swing.
Trees
All Advertbing is C'ood
An advertising specialist was addressing a business convention, and was attempting to prove that all mediums of advertising should be considered, and that most of them have their merits. He illustrated it by telling how he, himself, having been on the road and away from home continually for weeks, arrived one night tired and weary in a Southern town, and went up to his hotel room. Speaking to himself, he said: "You're lonesome." And just as he said it, he noticed that he was leaning on a Gideon Bible.
I think that I shall never see, A poem lovely as a tree. A tree whose hungry mouth is prest Against the earth's sweet flowing breast; A tree that looks at God all day, And lifts her leafy arms to pray; A tree that may in summer wear, A nest of robins in her hair; Upon whose bosom snow has lain, Who intimately lives with rain; Poems are made by fools like me, But only God can make a tree.
-Joyce Kilmer.

The honest man pays In the strangest of ways For the things he has always desired; He works like a slave To scrimp and to save,
paying up bills he's acquired. It siems he insists On reducing the lists Of firms that he owes five or ten,
order to make The same darned mistake And owe them all over again.
-Merle Beynon.

Builder's House of Tomorrow
Take a look today at the house of tomorrow--thc lou'cost home for the average family. Ytlu can see rvhat's on the way from the u'inning designs of thc biggcst housc design competitior.r in history.
Features common to the u'inning designs indicate a ltrlttsc that emphasizes livability, comfort and convenience ; at house that eliminates unnecessary frills. It is a house in keeping with the best in contemporarv architecture, one that makes liberal ttse of rnodern building nlaterials for siding, outdoor fences and screens and zr home made coll'lfortable by built-in conveniences.
The roof is low and sloping with wide extension of eaves as protection from direct summer sun as well as for ner'v appearance. There's provision for outdoor living rvith patios and recreatiou areas adjacent to the home fenced and screened, for maximum privacy on the stanclard citv lot. Exterior plywood is liberally used as a primary siding rnaterial or in combioation rvith other materials for harrclsome design effects.
Interiors are carefully plannecl to afford the feeling of maxinrum freedom and spaciousness lvithin the overall cubage limits of the structures. N'Iultiple-purpose areas arc relied upon heavily for utrnost utility in keeping rvith today's living habits. Often, the "rooms" for dining, conversation, living and children's play occupy the floor spacc. Counters, bars and built-in fixtures frequently aid in clefinition of the respective areas or at least the storage conveniences make multiple use of the given area feasible.
Designs in the re,cent outstanding competition, sponsored
by the National Association of I{ome 13uilders, Architectural F'orum magazine and btrilding materials manufacturcrs, rvere developed around a h<luse of not more than 1,000 square feet of floor space with three bedrooms atrd no basernent. The rules emphasized standard materiltls in st<rck sizcs. Object of the cornpetition s'hich d'rel 2,727 entries representing an estitrrate<l total (r0 years rvork, lvzrs to stimulate better design of homes for the :rvcrage Artrerican family.
Characteristic of the 78 national, regional and special award winners was the liberal ttse of Douglas lir plywood. 'I'hree of the first four winning designs indicated plyrvood lus the primary or complementary siding material ns dicl scores of the other premiated designs.
Winner of the $2,500 first prize rvas 27-year-old l'Iarvnrtl graduate stu<lent Bruce Walker. I"Ie desigrled a three bctlroonr, l;uilrler type house n'ith a large, multiple-purpose living area and a removitble partition betrveen the trvcr children's rooms. The house is suitable for constructiotr :rnywhere ir-r thd country and can be placed aclvantltgeortsl-v or.r virtually any stand:rrd lot.
Walkel neatly solved the storage problem which is cre ated by subsli!.ufifrg: an-rqpen carport for garage : At the encl of the ca{port he indicited a roomy plyrvood striral3c rrrrit for lar'r'n rnower, g:rrclen hose, tools and athlctic cclrripruen l.
