A CHALLENGE--—cmd AN OPPORTUNITY Today the forests of the South produce over 60‘} of the nations supply of pulpwood in addition to trees for lumber, poles and many other uses. Recent surveys predict an even greater portion of the nation timber needs will come from the 'IIIIIIIIII||IIIIIIlIIIIIIllllIlllllllllllllllllllllllIllllI‘lllltllllllllllllllllII’ forests of the South. IIIII’ To meet this ever increasing need for continuous crops of trees is a challenge—and an opportunity—to all toresters. Your help is needed to meet this challenge. We wish you much success as you take your place among the graduate foresters now at work in industry, government and others throughout the South.

The trees were all strown in the road without care, as to block any tralhc which might pass by there. Then all of a sudden right out of the blue, came a whole wrath of Forest!y boys and a gang of profs too. They sprang from their autos making such a clatter, then topped that all off with boisterous cries and loud chatter. I next saw this chap who had on a green hat with a wiskbroom attached to one side, leap clear of his jeep and take oil through the woods being out of sight in less than three strides. An old smelly pipe clinched tight in his teeth bellowed out smoke circling his head like a wreath. He had a right jolly old lace and a big round belly, that shook when he groaned like a bowl full of jelly. I knew at a moment who it must be, but I’ve forgotten the name so I’ll leave a space free...... Now being down curious and 'anting to know more, I found (to my amazement) this to be the ROLLEO of NINETEEN FIFTY FOUR. It was soon underway with volleyball games going). and while this went on I observed the rock-throwing. Joe Lawson, a Sophomore, easily won this, for in one mighty heave his rock left the earth with a hiss. Then while the archery contest was about to take place, 23 Q:Uu3QQU 5‘ a Junior, I)on Horton, won the hundred yard race and a Senior. Percy Hardy. came in second. (Iolonel Moody, a Senior, took first on the archery line. while a Sophomore placed second his name, l’aul l’ickenheim. In the tneantime down in the horseshoe~pits, Seniors VVillte Lurtis and liar] Rayburn won with a ring of high hits. By this time the vollqyball games had come to their end. the Seniors winning. Sophomores second, juniors third and the Freshmen just grinning. Don Horton won the standing~ broad-jump and while I took a brief rest, .\ freslnnan won the bait~casting contest. The log-bucking event was next on the list, and amidst hearty howls Ray Sluder and Gilmer Green took this. Next came a rather bloody sight. they ended up calling it an lndian Hand Wrestling Fight. A Freshman and Sophomore were first to start out, .Ioe Lawson winning for the Sophomores shouts. Then Joseph Emil 'I‘ekel and (lilmer Green swaped hides, to see who would win for the junior-Senior side. They groaned, twisted, tripping they sprawled, Joseph Emil Tekel winningr two out of three falls. At last the final round would begin and Lawson and Emil clinched like two mad men, but Tekel won out in the end. I then saw the chap that I mentioned before, lay down strips of brown paper and I wondered, What for? Finally four lads lined up for what they call the tobacco spit, and that fellow I mentioned almost got hit. 25 Bill Huxster, a Senior, rearing back like a horse let go. and won a blue ribbon for the distance show. Monroe, l’ickenheiin. antl“ the Duster called out for their best, when put up against l'luxster just couldn't meet the test \Nhen the accuracy part was brought to the attention of the men, Sophomore. Jack Kelly, thought he'd enter in. He stepped to the line, (lid his best lowering his chin be wiped off the rest. Needless to say Huxster won and the (‘hinning event was the next line of fun. Vito (Jiliberti took top honors for the Juniors, and pulling in second was john Swift, a Senior. Eight men were lined up and given a board. two matches, and a hatchet beside a marker, and the winners of the fire—building contest were Jack Kelly and Joel Parker. A barrage of fire filled the forest with an echoing noise, and the winners of the rifle-shooting match are the following boys: John Archer first and Vito Ciliberti second. Seniors took first place for the tug of war, second place going to the Sophomores. Don Calderon was fast man being first on the rope climb, and Gene Hill was the next fastest fellow up the vine. I then heard a bell and all left the Vine, they made a mad (lash and formed a huge line. A Hooker Horton and Ed Nobles, cooks of the lot, had prepared a supper and from what I was told. at least it was hot. Finally the fellow w *aring the green hat placed a finger to the side of his nose, and giving a snort from the table he arose. 26 ”0 took out his pipe and said with :1 moan, "Good night 10 all. it's linu' to go hinm', By B.

Anyone in the School of Forestry is a member, regardless of his class or forestry major. \\'hile you are a student here. your academic work should be your major activity. However. a well-rounded education includes extra-curricttlar ac« tivities. in which you as a college man should participate. It is my firm conviction that the most important of these activities is membership and participation in the Forestry (llub meetings and activities. The (llub is responsible for the Rolleo, a field day which is held each October: the Loggers' Brawl. a (lance held at Hill Forest: and the publish~ ing of the "Pine/mu". the Schools' yearbook. New and revised activities such as a spring outing. and Duke-State Forestry school get-together. a (lollege Union (Iarnival Night entry. :1 club football team. and the Associate membership committee provide many interesting outside activities, Each week varied programs. ranging from talks by technical men on some phase ol~ forestry to slides taken by our own students. to mountain music. are presented.

It seems like the horseshoe pit is a little too close to the main cabin. Other than this slight mishap, nothing unusual happened to any of the crew and we all benefited from the experience, both physically and intellectually. We learned many new skills and practices which will benefit us in later life, when we will be shifting for ourselves. It seems like the profs have developed a new method for debarking trees. This consists of wrapping 6 or 8 sticks of dynamite around the tree, igniting the fuse, and then running like hell. I’m sure some of the l‘ad- ing pulp and paper companies would be very interested in this new technique. Another achievement accomplished this summer was the use of dynamite in leveling sawdust piles. This process is still in the experimental stage as it requires an unusually large supply of dynamite. One of the things the boys really got a charge out of, was the forest industry trips. It is hard to believe. how we used to fight our way on the bus, eagerly anticipating those visits. They certainly helped to break-up the monotony and raise the troop's morale. The profs also benefited as there was an unusually high quality chorus constantly singing mellow tunes to help brighten the day. Camp was really jumping during the weekends with all the boys there, and the frequent blasts we used to throw. Since the nearby hamlets were loaded with women. we really turned the place into a summer resort. How sad we all were when we heard that we were going to leave Hill Forest and head up to the mountains, after all the good times spent in the “Virginia pine haven.” It was sort of rough to leave after only 8 weeks. Well, we finally got adjusted to our new environment. We soon learned that the game warden and the local folk were not to be trifled with. Most of us were pleased to hear that the county was dry since strong drink is the root of all evil. The gals were not too cheerfully shared by the local men-folk, but we got along fine as long as we didn’t look at cm or say “there’s some stock." We all went to the big hill»billy day square dance, where you start oil with one gal and ended up with another by the time you went around the circle. Some of the gals just seemed to disappear into thin air. We were most warmly received at Helen's Barn where we were greeted like long lost brothers. Such hospitality will long be remembered and we all hated to leave when they told us “yousuns can’t talk to our wimmin that way". \‘Ve decided that perhaps if we appealed to their sense of reason and came out in full force the next night. we could reach a mutual understanding. However, it seems as if we suddenly were required to hand in a mess of reports which kept us busy clear on up to the time we broke camp. We feel that if we accomplished nothing else. the good will we built with the local people will be a great aid to those following us. 34

HUXSTER, JR. Not all the work done for the Forestry School is accomplished by the faculty and Graduate students. Every fiscal year there is set aside in the budget [or the North (Iarolina State Forestry School a certain tidy sum for student labor. Student labor may be defined as student personnel willing to do highly skilled labor for minimum wages at a race horse pace. Before we go any further, let‘s examine the definition. This definition may sound as though student labor is down trodden. but it isn't. By working for the school in the Wood Products Laboratory, :1 student has a chance to practice some of the theory that was presented to him in class. Some of the work done by students this year is as follows: Logging, sawmilling, stack- ing lumber for air»drying and kiln-drying. dry-kiln operation. plumbing maintenance. veneer production, maintenance and repairs on rolling stock, reconditioning of state surplus purchases, placing a new body and seats on the Ford truck. etc., which has added to the experiences of the working student personnel. The Hill Forest has also been responsible [or a sub- stantial amount of student work. This year 20.000 Loblolly Pine seedlings plus many seedlings of other species will be planted out there, and all by student labor. It is hoped that Student-Forestry School relations will continue in the future. as both the school and the students benefit by an agreement of this type.

The XI Sigma Pi Award Between events of the annual Rolleo at the Hill Forest, Forester Tommy Frazier of the Mu (Ihapter at N. (1. State (Iollege presented the annual award to the Sophomore with the highest scholastic average as a Fresh- man in Forestry. This year's winner was Paul _]ohn Pickenheim. a student in Forest Management. He was presented a cruiser's axe in recognition of his high athievement. Paul hails from ’l'amaqua. Pennsylvania.

Sluder Gets Scholarship Each year a S200 annual undergraduate scholarship is awarded by the Southern Division of the American Pulp and Paper Mill Superintendents Association to the outstanding juniot in forestry. Earl Ray Sluder, a junior in Forest Management from Newland. N. (1., has been chosen to receive the scholarship this year. Earl is an active member of the Forestry Club, and Xi Sigma Pi. The announcement of the scholarship was made at a luncheon attended by the leaders of the South's paper, Wood products. and forest industries.

Well, we was satisﬁed with this predicament, but we figured that the profs won't enjoying themselves so we got together and decided to have a big stomp’n at the Hill. As I recall. hit was abottt the fifth of March when we had the thing called the LOGGER’S BRAVVL. Now friend. they was damn few loggers thar, but they was some mighty pretty females present. \Ve got up thar purty close to Four in the even'n and noticed that the weather was mighty warm and unseasonal like. All at once hit started to rain. Hit would quit rain’n and start a hail'n golf ball size. and hit kept that up all dang night. Now the weather might have been :1 might dreary, but that crowd kept on having a good time. Supper kind of disappointed me, in that they didn’t have hog chittlins. Oh, the rest of the fellers and gals enjoyed that barbecued hog. I reckon hit was be« cause Sludder and Monroe bought a mountain of hog antl cabbage, I really don't recollect. Now after everybody had fed up, them ridge run- ners headed by Charlie Webb started to pick and sing. Well now, everyone of us except them that was court‘n in the cabin. was up thar a stomp’n and a gett'n with it, friend. \IVhen Charlie would get tired, he'd play the phonygraph one time with that dressy music for them utilization students. He'd play one side. then we'd start a stomp'n again. I mean. Hit won't too long and a l’eller appeared who could really call them square dances. I believe his name was George Madris. Oh yes, somehow the word got about that the Forestry Club was a giv’n a real prize for the Bull and Bell of the woods. \Vell, to make a short story long, Tom Frazier anti his pttrty wife was dressed about alike in Levi's and rider's jackets.

I don't recollect what hit was cause hit's been 20 years. but you can believe hit was something powerful big. Now before I forget, I want to say that a few of the profs tttrned out. I remember ole string tie Briant with his wife and young’n came in with his Chippe 'a Loggers, Pappy Slocum drug his woman out to the affair (Hit could have been the other way), l)r.

39 Facts Be Hanged By W. C. MOODY “You graduate this year don’t you john? “Yes, that is if nothing goes wrong. Its going to feel fine to get out of this place and tie into a job." “Think you are r *adyP', "Now that’s a good question. but I've spent four years in college and had a litte of everything slung at me. Maybe now I will be able to get out on my own and apply some of it." "You gol-dang guys never learn do you! That snake skin hanging there will get more done on its own in the next five years than you will!" Stated the angry prof. “You are in for the shock of your life when you walk out of here and show up on a job trying to use what you have been taught here. “What does it take to make students realize they are not foresters when they receive that little sheepskin? \Vhat you have been shown here HAS been done, but you may or may not use it. You probably never will use the W'ausnogism formula: you won’t have time to go into the fancy lace of forestry. You have to have the principle. but the rest will be filed in the back of the mind.” “Why make us spend four years reading books just to get a goathide if that is all it is going to be worth?" “Why hellsbells! You didn't expect to have all the facts ever collected on management stuffed in that thick skull did you?” What's the four years for then if not for learning most of the facts, you haven’t answered that yet?" “Facts be hanged, its the principle not the fact you've spent all this time learning or trying to learn. Let me ask you just one question! What good are the facts without the principle of the phenomena? The ones that I feel sorry for are thOse students that haven’t worked in forest problems. I mean to really wade in waist deep and find out everything there is to know about the problem. starting from scratch. I don’t man a summer job trail blaying. smoke spotting. or doing TSl either: what are you spending so much time and money on your brain for if you don't use it as much as your back muscles." “The school requires that we work one summer, they wouldn't insist on that if they didn’t think that it was the best thing would they?" “That is just the exact thing I mean. It is the best the school can offer in the short course of four years. lt takes time to put any honest effort into any kind of work.” “Well, what about the co-op system, those boys spend a lot of time in the field." “Now you are getting smart John. and take your hat off while you speak of the coop. "That is the smartest thing a student can do and if they asked tne (which they don't) I would say make every student, that hasn't had two years in good field work before he came to college, take the co-operative program. Private industry and the school are willing but the student just doesn't 40 seem to r’alize the value of intergrated field work. \Vhy more don't grab at the chance for learning and wages instead of learning and tuition is be- yond me." Foresters on the Road By GEORGE DICKSON and PERCY HARDY One cool afternoon last June three forestry students staggered out of Dr. Maki’s silvics exam and headed for the wild west. Ten miles out of Raleigh a black cat crossed their trail. Little did they realize what an omen of misfortune this would turn out to be. One member of the crew advised turning back at that point, but was talked out of it by the other unknowing idiots. The first night was spent in the glorious free state of Virginia to let the heathen get one last taste of civilization]. Bright and early the next morn ing the ordeal was begun; about noon the party passed into the Yankee territory of Pennsylvania, the home range of the bull known as Slocum. They had had there last glimpse of the land of sunshine and the rain descended in torrents. After depositing a nominal fee, the crew finally got out of the wagon track known as the Pennsylvania Turnpike. It started raining harder. They set up camp that night at the Erie watering hole in a trading post called Cleveland. Blowing out of Ohio the next day to the tune of a howling gale, the trip continued smoothly with only three flats during the day. Stopping for supper without an interpreter that night proved disastrous. The crew ended up (lining on some super-juice that the natives had the audacity to call cheese. The final blow fell when an old native had the nerve to ask if the boys wert all brothers. Realizing they were in hostile territory without any b'ads to trade, the crew decided to push on that night. After they thought they had out-distanced the goat wagons, they set up camp along the trail. Posting a sentry at the outskirts of camp. they settled down for a restful night. Suddenly the enemy was upon them. The sentry was overwhelmed and left with only shorts and flashlight, minus sleeping bag and dignity. Hastily breaking camp they pushed on to a cross roads community seeking protection. They spent the remainder of the night unknowingly in front of one of the local houses of ill repute, so they were informed at 3 .‘\.l\‘[. by the local constable. The next morning they presented their letter of introduction from Dr. Maki at the border of the State of ten thousand pot holes. and were in turn allowed safe passage. The journey reached Dakota amid a nice peaceful tornado which almost shook the auto apart. It was in this territory that a bad situation arose for the foresters. as well as the hound dogs, i.e. no trees. Suddenly the party had come to their first View of the snow capped Rocky Mountains, whereupon one member of the party had to be bound and gagged to prevent his prompt return to the land of sunshine. At this point, half a day was spent digging the automobile out of the surface of one of Montana's first class highways. 41 As the group reached the mountains, one of the smaller boys known as “the Cud” took the wheel The other two cowered in the back seat, afraid to look. After a breathtaking ride down the roller coaster, through snow banks and across ice Hots, they descended into a village planning to stay awhile. Kicked out of town before dark, they had to beat it for Idaho. After stopping in Wallace for refreshment, they made it to Kellogg for something to eat, The mis-adventurous trip finally ended in Spokane where the crew managed to go up 7 out of 8 one way streets the wrong way. After spend~ ing the night in skid row. the three foresters split up to go their respec— tive ways, each hoping the hell he’d never see the other two again. Life On A Lookout By c. A. HOOD Whenever a person makes the statement that he has spent a summer doing lookout work, his statement is met with the usual reaction. This reaction varies between weird looks, and inquiries as to whether or not there is any history of insanity in the family. I usually answer the weird looks with an air of distain; and the implications by replying with that old cliche, “Co to -:?*”. However, I feel that the time has come when I nmst refute the maligned name of lookout work, and paint it in its true light. In other words, give out with the straight poop! I had the good fortune of experiencing two months of lookout work for the United States Forest Service the summer of my freshman year. My lookout (Frisco Peak) was located in the heart of the Salway-Bitteroot Wild- erness Area of northern Idaho. It was thirty-five miles from the nearest road and fifty miles from the nearest habitation. The lookout cab was a roomy fifteen by fifteen feet, complete with stove, bed, radio and alidadc. Other modern conveniences included a manually replaced woodpile, a spacious outhouse, and a spring which was a brisk one—half mile from the lookout. The usual conception of lookout work is that it is a (lull routine with little to do except become far-sighted while looking for fires. Friends, this is a brazen, cottenopicken, pseudofactual fil). While on Frisco, I had wood to cut, meals to cook, dishes, windows and clothes to wash, water to haul, daily activity and weather reports to write, trail to work, and hourly smoke observations to make. When fire season arrived in earnest, I located and reported 18 fires, chasing and suppressing four of these. August saw a 1,200 acre fire which almost consumed the lookout, yours truly, and 50 firefighters before reinforcements arrived and the fire was brought under control. Yep, sure is (lull work.l For the person who enjoys seeing wildlife in the raw, the lookout is the place to observe it. I saw elk, moose, black bear, deer and grouse aplenty. Before the fire-danger became high I received permission to go fishing and fished several small sul)~alpine lakes which had been stocked with Eastern brook trout. The fish weren’t lunkers (10 to 12 inches), but it was like fishing in a hatchery, and those trout didn't go bad in the skillet. 42 umIIIImlInmIIuinnuminIunnuuIIIIIInumnuInmunmmIIIImImmInunInInnuIIImmimminmlmuuunnullv’, PAPER IS HERE FOR GOOD!

J. PRESTON, Dean The School of Forestry has continued to make important advances during the current year toward its goal of achieving high excellence. \Ve know that the real measure of our worth as a School rests with the record of our alumni and our efforts toward excellence lie in improving our teaching programs and in the growth and stature of our faculty. Fine buildings and equipment are very important. but less so than an alert, able student body and a faculty recognized as leaders in their respective ﬁelds. \N’ith the completion of our new pulp and paper building our physical facilities will be much improved. We still need an adequate building for our sawmills, veneer lathe, and preserving tanks and this will be our next major goal. The new pulp and paper building should be ready for occupancy in early 1956 and will provide us with excellent quarters for this rapidly growing program which has been recognized by the Southern Regional Board as the one to serve the entire South. Our student body continues to grow, although more slowly than we desire. Total enrollment for this year is 223, with 9-1 freshmen, 418 sophomores, 28 juniors, 37 seniors and 16 graduate students. This makes us the largest of southern forestry schools. It is interesting to note that these students come from 25 states and 2 foreign countries, giving us a truly regional status. It is also interesting to note that 9 students are sons of fathers prominent in forestry work and that next year we expect to have secoml-generation foresters enrolled. One interesting fact concerning enrollment and alumni is that while we have a large out of state enrollment at study of our 600 alumni indicates that 459;, are now living in North Carolina, 709;, live in North (larolina or contiguous states and well over 807;, live in the Southeast. 'I’his reverses a common complaint that the South trains its young men at considerable expense only to have them move out of the South upon graduation. Increased enrollment of high ability students is our greatest need. especially in our three utilization curricula, as job opportunities far exteed the number of graduates. Strenuous efforts have been made to build enrollment through establishing scholarships. preparing brochures and use of an excellent flip chart prepared by George Smith and duplicated for us by (lham- pion Paper and Fibre (lo. \Ve are conﬁdent that next year's enrollment will prove these efforts successful. \Ve are gratified that for the past two years our forestry freshmen have been above the average of the entire college in ability. The Scholarship program which we are building up should bring this average ability still higher and enable us to turn out increasingly able graduates. For the coming year 10 Pulp and Paper scholarships are available which pay $600 a year for four years and five intlividual scholarships are available with no restric- 44 tions as to residence or curricula which pay from $200 to $500 for one year. We hope we can increase this number of undergraduate scholarships and thus attract more deserving young men who need help into our programs. 'I‘en research as. stantships are filled this year with graduate students which pay from Sl2l5 to Sl80l) a year and require certain services from the recipients. (Zontinuing our conviction that to be a truly great forestry school and render maximum service, we must work closely and cooperatively with all branches of the forestry profession, we held a meeting of our Advisory Committees in November. .\bout one hundred forestry leaders attended this meeting a partial purpose of which was to incorporate a new Pulp and Paper Foundation to support our new progratn. .-\ second meeting in February completed the establishment of the Foundation which is gov- erned by 32 directors representing 16 Pulp and Paper Companies. Mr. L J. Gayner, lll. President of the Brunswick Pulp and Paper (lo. is Presi- dent of the Foundation. with Dwight 'I‘homson, Vice President of (Ihampion Paper and Fibre (10.. Vice President of the Foundation. Your faculty changes occurred during the year I. Professor .-\. (I. Barefoot was appointed Assistant Professor of Forest Utililation. During the preceding year Professor Barefoot served on our staff as ‘l‘echnologist. Mr. Barefoot received the B.S. in 1950 and the M.F. in 195] from N. (1. State College and is now completing his requirements for the Ph.l). at Duke University. 2. Professor R. C. Ilitchings was appointed Assistant Professor of Pulp and Paper 'l‘echnology. Professor llitcliings comes to us from the faculty of the New York State (lollege of Forestry in Syracuse and is working with Professor (2. E. Libby. 3. George “t". Smith was appointed Assistant State Extension Forester replacing I. 12. Ford, who resigned. Mr. Smith graduated with the 8.8 degree lrom N. ( State(College in 1918. -1. .\Ir. (2. A. Hart was appointed Ieclmologist working in the field of hardwood utiliIation. Mr. Hart received the BS. degree front \’.P.l. in 1952, the MS. in 195-1. and is now working on the Ph.l). A few changes have been made in our curricula. We have introduced comprehensive orientation course that runs all through the freshman year and includes one lecture and one all~afteruoon trip or laboratory each week. This gives our freshmen an introduction to all aspects of the forestry profession and enables them to better select one of our four curricula at the end of their freshman year. In three of our curricula we have reduced to a minimum core the required forestry courses and have established a number of minor fields of specialization. enabling a student in his junior and senior years to group his electives into a minor field of interest to him. 'l‘hrough the generosity of the l’. S. Forest Service we have been given a long term lease to three large stone buildings in the old Nantahala National Forest headquarters area at \\"ayah Bald near Franklin. Our mountain camp has been moved to this location and with its outdoor swim- ming pool and recreational facilities this new camp in the high mountains nicely rounds out our facilities for oil canipus instruction. ()ur Forest Management majors now spend the last eight weeks of their senior year 45 in our camps. one of their projects being construction of a management plan that sums up and ties together much of the course work previously taken. Many of our alumni have returned during the year to attend one or more of the 12 short courses whith were offered. We hope more of you may come back to spend a few days as a student with us this coming year. These short courses place a heavy burden on a busy faculty. but we feel they form an important service which we should offer. In closing. this has been a year of progress and we look forward toward even greater gains in the year all 'ad.

The Hofmann Forest Report By DR. J. V. HOFMANN, Manager—North Carolina Forestry Foundation In addition to the long term timber cutting contract, the operation of the Hohnann Forest has been contracted to the Halifax Paper (Iompany. Through this agreement the Paper (Iompany is responsible for all timber operations. developments and improvements. hunting. fire protection and other activities. The Forestry Foundation retains such functions as timber cutting practices. development program and general policies concerning any issues involving the forest. All equipment owned by the Forestry Foundation is operated by the Paper Company, primarily for development such as digging canals, road construction and maintenance. Three drag lines were transferred by the Navy Department to the Forest Foundation to be used for drainage and road building. One of these is now in operation in addition to the large Northwest machine which has done nearly all of the canal digging on the forest. The development program has been centered on block 9 in the south- western part of the forest and is now in block 8. The canal has been completed for the entire length of the Roper Road and cross canals are being dug in this block. The plan is to develop a block completely so far as canals are needed. Secondary drainage and road construction can be done with the road grader and plow. Canals are urgently needed in the northern part of the forest. An area of more than 30.000 acres north of the Quakerbridge Road does not have a canal or road through it for access, or as a fire break. A fire of about 17,000 acres occurred in this area the week of March 21. More intensive fire protection is one of the major needs in order to safeguard the young stands and reproduction. Hunting was permitted every day of the open season during 195-1. The reports on game taken vary from good to poor but the number of deer taken was enough to keep the hunters interested. ()n the whole, it appears that the game supply is decreasing. The Halifax Paper Company produced 18.1-16.22 cords of pulpwood dttring the year 195']. from the areas where drainage and road building have been completed. 46 The School of Forestry camp has been changed from the junior to the senior year. The seniors will go to the lorest about .\pril l.

BASEIENY PLAN Progress Report on the Pulp and Paper Building at the School of Forestry By R. G. HITCHINGS Following delays. both technical and financial, the building to house the pttlp and paper program was started without ceremony during the middle of February. 195:3. at the corner of V\'estern Boulevard and Dan Allen Drive. At the present time, the ground has been scraped away. footings poured. and the concrete beams are appearing on the skyline slightly to the west of the Dry Kiln. \Vith the present rate ol progress. the projected date of occupancy is January 1. 1956. The accompanying diagrams illustrate the room outlines of the ISO feet by ‘15 feet two-story building. The largest room in the basement, the mechanical and chemical wood pulp laboratory, will provide space for small digesters to cook ten~pound quantities of, wood chips by the various commercial pulping processes. A rotaly digester. refiners and screening equipment will also be located here to make it possible to investigate the preparation ol‘ unbleached pulps by all the known commercial processes. .>\t the rear of this laboratory. :1 wood preparation room is provided to contain a wood chipper. chip screen, and other raw chip testing equipment necessary to determine accurately the quality of the raw chips prepared I'or digestion. Adjacent to the wood preparation room will be located the pulp bleaching laboratory. It will be equipped for investigations in single and multistage bleaching operations. “’ith constant temperature baths and analytical testing apparatus, the students will be able to follow close- 48 ly the changes in the pulps necessary to convert the dark brown, unbleached fibers to pure white products. Directly across the hall, the pulp testing laboratory will contain miniature test beaters, fiber classifiers, free- ness testers, and sheet machines. Here students will make small sheets of paper suitable for physical strength tests that will enable them to judge and evaluate the properties of the experimental digestions and bleaching operations. Near the center of the basement, a locker room with showers will be provided for the convenience of students to (lean up after laboratory sessions. A student lounge is also provided to allow students to relax during long laboratory assignments. To provide space for graduate studies. four laboratories are to be equipped for advanced studies in pulp and paper research. The machine shop in the building will contain tools and facilities for maintenance and for building experimental test equipment. In the utility services room, the high pressure boiler providing steam for the small digesters, hot water heater, vacuum pump, air compressor. and air conditioning equipment for the paper testing laboratory will be located. On the first floor, staff Offices and space for a departmental library have been provided for. \N’ith the two classrooms. these facilities will allow the conducting of the majority of the senior courses without requiring the students to travel from one portion of the campus to another and back again. It is anticipated that the classrootns will contain laboratory demonstration benches and audio-visual devices to aid in formal class lectures. One of the main features of the first floor will be the constant temperature and constant humidity controlled paper testing laboratory. It is imperative, in testing cellulose materials. that the temperature is maintained within : 03°F. and the relative htnnidity within : 10;, of standard conditions to insure accurate results. \Mithin this laboratory, the experimental pulps and papers will be tested to determine physical and optical properties. The coloring laboratory is provided to furnish facilities for training in paper dyeing and color matching. In addition, test equipment will make it possible to determine the resistance of the colored papers to {ad ing and chemical agents normally encountered in use. Adjacent to the color laboratory and close to the chemistry laboratory will be the balance room. In a separate room, the balances will be protected from the moisture and chemical fumes associated with other laboratory operations. The optical laboratory is also located to provide protection for microscopes and Optical measuring equipment from corrosive [time damage normally encountered in pulp making processes. The chemical laboratory will furnish an area where students will per- form tests on experimental pulps and papers and commercial samples. Directly connected to the chemical testing laboratory, the oven room will provide ready access to circulating ovens for moisture determinations and muffle furnaces for the rapid retluction of paper and pulp samples for ash analyses. A laboratory stockroom has also been provided to store glass- ware and chemical reagents. Solution preparation will be carried out in the stockroom at a bench equipped with standard laboratory fixtures. 49 One of the unique features of the building is the use of channel Iloor drains in all the laboratories where wet pulp samples will be handled. ()ther laboratories are to be equipped with lloor drains, thus permitting ease of Iloor maintenance and minimizing the dangers in removing spilled corrosive chemicals. All the laboratories where gases and Iutnes are apt to be generated will be equipped with torrosion-resistant (huts and exhaust fans. Provisions for the installation of safety showers and fire blankets have been planned in the chemical and wood pulp laboratories to de- crease injury from accidental chemical burns In order to allow for further expansion of the pulp and paper program. the building contains design features which will allow the addition 01' a third story for laboratory and oIIice space and the erection of a wing at the center of the rear ol the building to house semi-conunercial paper- making equipment. \‘Vith an eye toward the future. the details intorporated for minimum maintenance, resistance to chemical action. and llexibility to permit rapid piping and electrical service changes will make the building a valuable addition to the School of Foresty program. Members of the College stall and the designing architect made extensive Visitations to collegiate and industrial pulp and paper laboratories to insure that this building will provide the best facilities Ior instruction in the Iield of pulp and paper technology in the United States.

'I'he Pulp and Paper Foundation. Inc., was formally established on Feb» ruary -|, H155. at the first meeting of incorporators. Prior to this time the charter of the corporation had been granted through the Office of the Secretary of State. This charter was approved at the February "1 meeting, as were the by-laws. and directors were elected. The purposes of this new Foundation. as stated in the Certificate of In- corporation. are to aid and promote by financial assistance and otherwise all types of education and research in the field of pulp and paper in the School of Forestry at North Carolina State College. The Foundation is authorized to receive donations and carry out other activities to aid in the development of this program. To (late. sixteen of the major pulp and paper companies of the South are supporting the program with minimum annual contributions of $1.000 each. In addition. supplier memberships and individual memberships are being received. A budget of $25,000 for the next fiscal year has been approved by the Board of Directors and will be devoted largely to scholarships and supplemental salaries. Authori— Iation was given to spend up to $9.000 for scholarships for the next academic year. Ten of these scholarships were designated to pay the recipient $600 each year. The program in pulp and paper technology in the School of Forestry has been designated by the Southern Regional liducation Board as the regional school to serve the entire South in this field of education. .\ new $225,000 building is now under construction to house this program. 'I'hrough the support of the Foundation. the Reuben B. Robertson Distinguished Professorship in pulp and paper technology was established and Prof. C. Ii. Libby was brought in to head this new course of study. For many years Prof. Libby had headed up the largest program of pulp and paper technology in the country at the New York College of Forestry at Syracuse.

The establishment of the Pttlp and Paper Foundation will accelerate and assist in expanding and strengthening the instructional program in the School of Forestry and will do much to insure that a highly trained reservoir of future technologists will be available to the pulp and paper industry of the South. The pulp and paper industry is now the fifth largest industry in the United States. as well as one of the fastest growing, and its demands for technically trained men are therefore very great. Sixty percent of the pulp and fifty percent of the paper manufactured in the United States is now produced in this region. Hofmann Loan Fund The Hofmann Loan Fund is still a growing concern and is being put to good use by needy students. To date ten loans totaling $1.215 have been Inade. Four loans have been repaid in full and three in part. On April 1, 1955 a total of $1,402.08 had been deposited in the Fund. Loans outstanding totaled $650.00, cash on hantl was $752.08. ‘\IllllllllllllIllllllIllIIIIllllllIIIIIIIIII‘IIIlllllllIllIIIlllllllIllllllIllIIIHIIIllIIIIIIIIIIlIIIIllllllIllllllIIIIIIIllllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIHII" Preserve The Value Of Forest Products Ambrite 0 Protects logs from ambrosia beetles and other insects, prevents stain and mold damage.

BEAL Chief, Division of Forest Insect Research Forest Service U. S. Department of Agriculture .\t no time in the history of forestry in America has the outlook for employment of forest entomologists been more encouraging than it is today. This is true despite the fact that employment in this special field is cttrrently at an all time high. During the past few years there has developed throughout the country a keen and enlightened interest in the insect problems of our forests. 'I'here are several reasons why timber grow- ers have become more concerned with forest pests and the damage which they cause. Probably the most. important of these has been the increasing demand for wood and wood products and the accompanying rise in prices being paid for these materials. In addition. there is a growing scarcity of sawlog trees and other high-quality timber. Furthermore. it has become evident that insect-caused losses outrank those of all other natural enemies includ ing lire. Increasing activity in reforestation and planting programs also has alerted a larger number of owners of forest lands to the importance of safeguarding their investments by protecting their seedlings and young trees from insect damage. Intensive management practices, more access roads. and improvements in harvesting and processing forest products have made it possible and profitable to control many forest pests. Finally. but certainly not the least important. is the fact that satisfactory controls have been developed for some of the most important forest insects. For example, it is now possible to recognize. and remove through selective cutting those trees which are susceptible to one of the most destructive western bark beetles. Also, many defoliators can now be controlled over large forested areas by aerial application of some of the recently developed organic insecticides. ()ther of these compounds are being used successfully to control numerous additional noxious forest insects. An increasing number of forest owners are seeking aid in coping with their insect problems. They are no longer content to let the “bugs" dic- tate their management plans. They no longer willingly sacrifice a portion of their cash crop to these maraudets, Indeed, forest owners are desirous of protecting their plantations and natural stands from insects throughout the growing years until they are harvested. Forest managers turn naturally to the forest entomologist for advice and information as to the methods of dealing with their particular insect problems. Hence the demand for foresters with specialized training in entomology is increasing steadily. Only in recent years have a small number of timber companies begun the. practice of employing full-time entomologists. Others are currently following this lead and many more will undoubtedly do so during the next few years. For many years only one of the forty-eight states employed a practicing forest entomologist. \Vithin the past five years, six additional states have 53 followed suit. Still others are contemplating similar appointments in the near future. There are perhaps not more than one hundred and twenty-five full-time professional forest entomologists in the country today. Currently. the Fed- eral Government is the largest single employer of men in this profession: followed by the states and private industry in that order. There will be need for many more within the next five to ten years to cope with the forest insect problems. Greatest increase Will undoubtedly come in the states and private industry. although additional personnel will also be needed in the Federal work. Adequate protection of the forests of the country from the ravages of destructive forest insects is indeed a huge task. In order to succeed in this undertaking. forest entomological research. surveys. and control will have to be greatly strengthened. The job is too large for any single organization. In order to succeed, it will require the joint efforts of all interested individuals and the employment of many more technically trained forest entomologists by private industry, the states. and the Federal Government. I have attempted to outline the job which lies ahead in meeting the forest insect problem and to indicate the number of men who might be required to do it. Unfortunately. no one can accurately predict the speed with which either private industry groups or any of the governmental organizations will move to reduce timber losses caused by insects. There is ample evidence. however. to indicate that the opportunities in forest entomology are currently very good. Furthermore. it would appear that this situation will probably continue over the next several years. The Importance of Genetics in Forestry ByJOE HANSON ln his discussion of the basis of individual variation. Stebbins (1950) states: “The variation seen between the individual of any population is based on three factors: environmental modification, genetic recombination, and mutation. Experiments have shown that each genotype has its own genetically determined degree of modification or plasticity”. In other words, the genotype determines the range of effects the environment can have on the individual. Thus environment may have much phenotypic effect or none depending on the genotype of the individual. Agronomists and horticulturists have long been taking advantage of the knowledge that plant characters are heritable. Through selective breeding old strains of economically important plants have been improved and new strains have been developed with the desirable traits included. There is certainly reason to believe the same could be done with our forest tree species. The foresters of this country are just beginning to become aware of the important role applied genetics can play in a present day forest management program. Until the present time, the prevailing practice in forest harvesting has been that of “creaming” the stands—cutting all the best trees and leaving only culls if anything at all. As a result the succeeding stands have been of decidedly poorer quality than the original 54 stand, and the reason is obvious. No agronomist or other plant breeder would even consider following this practice of leaving the poorest individuals as parents for the following generation. This is not the only practice in forestry in which the facts of heredity are ignored. In the South alone 200 million seedlings are planted annually; enough to restock 200,000 acres of forest land. For the most part the seeds are collected where they can be most easily acquired without the least thought given as to whether or not they are from vigorous, high quality, disease resistant strains. With the annually increasing demand for planting stock. there is reason for the forcsters of the country to realize the importance of a forest tree breeding program designed to produce plantation stock of superior quality in all respects. Judging from the success obtained in selective breeding of agricultural and horticultural plants, there is no reason why one could not expect improved seedling stock to at lrast double wood production from plantation planting. not to men- tion incr"ased quality and reduced seedling mortality. A number of studies already made with lorest trees show the great con- tribution genetics has to make for improving our forests. Sherry (1917) has shown that both desirable and undesirable characteristics of Monterey pine (I’inux radiant) mother trees grown in South Africa may be passed on to their offspring. Seed was collected from M parent trees which exhibited marked characteristics in regard to vigor, branch thickness. length of internodes, stem form. and crown form. At seven years of age. the progenies. consisting of about ~10 trees from each parent tree, were measured and scored for morphological characteristics. Data from two of the progeny groups will serve to illustrate the type of results obtained from the plantation. One mother tree was selected for high vigor, small branches. relatively short internodes. straight stem, and narrow crown. The progeny showed 8:") percent with small branches, 9] percent with short internodes. 96 percent with straight stems, and 47 percent with narrow crowns. Another rapid growing mother tree that had small branches. long interuodes. crooked stem. and wide crown gave progeny 73 percent of which had small stems. and 55 percent wide crowns. Generally. a surprisingly high percentage of trees—these progenies resembled the parent material—characteristics score. suggesting that these characters are genetically controlled. Selection of trees superior in latex production has been an important part in the development of improved rubber-producing trees of Ila/(m. 'I‘ln‘ough a program of selection and controlled breeding with use of bud- gral'ted superior types, the best stock is expected to produce 2.00 kg. per hectare as compared with a yield of only ~160 - 610 kg. per hectare of the unselected plantations in 1926. 'I‘oole and Hepting found that open—pollinated seed of mimosa trees resistant to mimosa wilt produced trees about half of which were also resistant to the disease. Only very few resistant seedlings were found when seed was collected without regard to resistance in the parent. Forest genetics is still in its infancy. As has been shown in the above examples, the good that can be done in the field of forestry by developing this science cannot be overestimated. 55 Random Reflections Regarding Research By T. E. MAKl The embryo forester. flushed with preparations for a career in the woods, doubtless finds little time and less inclination to ponder and meditate about forestry research. The nature and significance of it, at this stage, may escape him entirely, and most likely does. For hasn't he embarked on forest management because he craved for the full, free life of the out-of—doors, —the hunting, the fishing, the trapping. the ridding on horse-back, the furnishing of tourist information, and all that? And research? Poof! That’s strictly for the birds! To the out-door man the very word, RE-SEARCH (and he’ll accent it loudly on the first syllable) brings up visions of laboratories, filled with complex-looking instruments, glass-ware of all kinds. including the archaic alembic, and always, of course, with a few white-frocked, myopic figures peering intently into test tubes. microscopes. or both. Now research in the field of forest management may seldom get start< ed in the environment traditionally envisioned and circumscribed for the laboratory. More often, the forester's laboratory is the logging chance, the abandoned, eroding field. the watershed, the nursery bed. the drainage ditch, or a recent burn. To do high class research doesn’t necessarily need marble-halled structures, with terrazo-floored rooms, housing complicated equipment,—mysterious, awesome, spotless. It can be done in any environment related to trees, forests, land, and water. And it lies within the province of all who have eyes to see, ears to hear. and, above all, minds to think. Literally and yet mologically, RESEARCH means to LOOK AGAIN. Vthrever men have loo/ted again and sufficiently analyzed and synthesi7ed what they observed or measured, and thus found better ways of attaining old ends or developing new ones, there we have seen re searchers in action in the truest and best sense of the word. Research, whether in forest management or in other fields, is not a fixture but a dynamic process. “’6 may think of it as a means of opening new frontiers. But we should consider it equally as a mans of avoiding that very dangerous practice of regarding the ACCEPTED as the ULTI- MATE. Research is part discovery and part simplification. Ancient man kin- dled his fire with friction of wood against wood. Any Freshman forester, who has had the good fortune of being well‘trained as a Boy Scout, can readily prove that modern man can do this too. Ancient man discovered fire, probably quite by accident. and used his mind to harness this fortuitous event for his own well-being. It took a lot of research to simplify the ancient method of kindling fires. The result was a match, a tiny stick or a strip of cardboard, with a dab of chemicals at one end. Yet this lowly match has spawned a world—wide industry, and fire by friction as practiced by ancient man died in the competition. Simplification can be as much a sign of progress as is discovery. Research in forest management has as its ultimate task or objective the formulation and building of a solid base of technical knowledge for the efficient use of forest lands. The future will witness much more intensive 56 use of forest land than has yet been made. liven under the relatively extensive management practices of today. there is already much over-extrapolation from a meager base of technical knowledge because of the rapid expansion of forestry activities. In the futule as in the past, contrary to popular notions. the dangers and the heavy losses will stem not from duplication of research effort but from extrapolation. Research in forest management is a young science. Scarcely any forestry literature, worthy of note, dates back much over 100 years, and in our own country. not much over 50 years. In this relatively brief time, we have amassed a great deal of useful information. but much of it has been of an empiric nature. with consequent local applicability. “’e have a real need now to begin rapid broadening of the base of knowledge by striking out into less explored areas and more fundamental fields like soils, physiology, genetics, water relationships. and the like. We need to refine and simplify our knowledge and free it of the clutter of “folklore" and “general impressions.” For it still holds as Sir Francis Galton once stated, that: "General impressions are never to be trusted. Unfortunately when they are of long standing they become fixed rules of life, and assume a pre- scriptive .right never to be questioned. . . . Men not accustomed to original inquiry . . . cannot endure the thought of subjecting their sacred impressions to cold-blooded verification. But it is the tritnnph of scientific men to rise SUPERIOR to such superstitions. to desire tests by which the value of beliefs may be ascertained. and to feel sufficiently MASTERS of themselves to cast contemptuously aside whatever may be found untrue." In the future task of discovery and simplification in forest management, there will be need for new. young blood: for men with eyes to see and “steel-trap" minds to think; for scientific men with mastery to rise “superior to superstitions." Nothing but the best in ability and imagi- nation will suffice to develop the most efficient practices on every acre of forest land. The embryo forester who hasn’t given the field of forestry research much thought, might profitably think seriously about research in relation to his own professional aspirations. If he feels he has the apti- tude, he woulcl gain by starting early to lay a firm foundation for a research career. lt's not all drudgery. It can be rewarding too, at least in intangible ways. As Aristotle put it years ago: "Search for truth is in one way hard. and in another way easy: for it is evident that no one can master it fully. nor miss it wholly. But each adds a little to our knowledge of Nature; and from all the facts assembled, there arises a certain grandeur." A Glimpse of Tcrheelia By S. L. TISDALE The road from Manteo to Murphy covers a lot of territory and a passel of mighty pretty scenery. A traveler making this trip might be intrigued by the changes both in terrain and vegetation. But what the casual observer probably won’t notice are the changes in the soil as he travels from east to west. Most people take the soil for granted. They never bother to notice the pronounced differences it exhibits from one area to another. Few even 57 r-alize that these dilierences exist and fewer still the importance that they hold for man. But let's take a look at the soil as an object of just plain curiosity rather than as something [or man’s use. And North (Zarolina olfers a pretty good opportunity to get an idea of the wide range of soil types one may encounter. The soil is generally considered to be the result of about five factors. These are parent material. climate, vegetation. reliel‘, and time. \Vhen these five factors occur in any one of an almost unlimited number of possible combinations. a soil with certain properties results. Soils may exhibit a wide range of colors: they may vary in texture. a term used to describe the amount of sand, silt. and clay present: and they may vary in their internal makeup. When one rellects a moment on the range of conditions that make up a climate, from hot and humid to cold and arid conditions; or the range in type of parent materials. from loose unconsolidated sediments to basic igneous rocks: or the range in relie[ from flat, low lying areas to steeply sloping mountain sides when one considers all oi the combinations of all the gradations in the factors which make up a soil, the number of possible soil types is seen to be large indeed. Now in North (Karolina there is a wide range o[ parent materials. climate, relief. and vegetation, So let's see how the soils vary as we start at Manteo and end up in Murphy. so to speak. North Carolina is roughly divided into three physiographic regions. The eastern third of the state is called the coastal plain and the soils in this area are largely formed from marine deposited sediments. The central third of the state is termed the Piedmont Plateau and the soils in this area are formed from a wide range of igneous, sedimentary. and metamorphic rocks. The western third of the state is termed the mountain region and metamorphic rocks make up most of the parent materials in this region. In the eastern coastal plain of North Carolina there are large areas of black soils called mucks and peats. These soils are either organic—mineral mixtures. the mucks. or they are entirely composed of partially decayed organic matter. the peats. Such soils are formed as a result of the annual accumulation of dead vegetation which is prevented from decomposing because of a high water table. They are quite porous. \Mhen drained, they shrink quite a bit and will burn if ignited. Travelling westward one moves into regions of somewhat better drainage. The soils in this area are still frequently poorly drained, but they contain larger amounts of mineral matter - more sand and silt. so to speak. The somewhat poorly drained conditions cause an accumulation of organic matter. If one were to examine the profile of these soils he would find that they range in color from grey to mixtures of grey and yellow or red. This combination of greys with yellows and reds is termed mottling and is almost always associated with somewhat poorly drained conditions. Almost all of the soils of the middle and lower coastal plain are at least somewhat poorly drained. But as one moves ever westward, he passes into a region of gently rolling topography and well-drained sandy soils. Here the sub-soil colors are light yellow. red. and orange. These bright colors are caused by conditions of good drainage, and the pigment itself is due to the presence of variously hydrated oxides of iron. 58 These brightly colored sandy soils are found in the upper coastal plain region of the state. All soils in the entire of the coastal plain are formed from what the geologist calls unconsolidated beds of marine-deposited sands, clays, and mixtures of sands, clays, and silts. Before leaving the coastal plain, lets take a swing down through the sandhills area. Here's where North (.arolina's peach crop is largely grown. The soils in this area are mostly deep sands and are excessively drained. Because of these two conditions they are classed as regosols, as a soils man would say. This term means that the soils do not exhibit well developed profile characteristics such as zones of removal and miles of accumulation. \Ve now leave the coastal plain. that region which was once under the Atlantic Ocean, and push on into the Piedmont area. While much of the coastal plain area was gently sloping to level. land in the Piedmont is generally quite rolling. As a result, it is more severely eroded and brightly colored subsoils are everywhere apparent. Piedmont soils are formed from a number of types of parent materials. Just west of the coastal plain. for example, is an area of acid crystalline rocks which give rise to soils brilliantly colored with red and yellow. And a little farther west one moves into soils formed from sandstones and mud- stones that were deposited in the Triassic period. These soils range from sandy clay loams to clays in the subsoil and in color from a bright yellow to a striking reddish purple. Running in a northeasterly-southwesterly direction through the central section of the piedmont area is a group of soils formed from slates. These soils, known as the slate-belt soils. are silts and silt loams in texture and are quite brilliantly colored ranging from light grey and yellow to a bright red. Farther west one moves into an area in which the soils are formed from dark line~grained basic igneous rocks. These soils are high in their content of clay and are a rich chocolate red in color. They are deep and mellow and make up some of the best alfalfa land in the state. Thus far on our trip through North Carolina the climate has remained essentially the same being that normally expected in a humid. warm temperate zone. The (liflerences in the soils, and they have been marked. indeed, have been the result of changes in the materials from which the soils were formed and to changes in the topography, or relief of the land. But climate. and the vegetation which is so closely allied with climate, is a powerful agent imtlte formation of a soil. The similarity in the appear- ance of soils of the Piedmont and the well-drained soils of the coastal plain is the result of the rainfall, vegetation, and temperature. The warm to hot temperatures particularly have contributed to the bright red colors that are so prominent in these areas. These colors continue on into the soils of the foot-hill region of the state—that area between the mountains and the piedmont. The soils in this area occur on quite sloping topography and in some cases literally gliSLen in the sunlight because of the large amount of mica they contain. The vegetation begins to change, too, with graceful white pines creeping in here and there. But when one gets into the mountain area of North Carolina, the scene changes almost abruptly. The high elevations and the cool temperatures 59 cause a change in vegetation. Firs and balsams replace the oak and loblolly of the warmer regions. And these changes in vegetation and temperature are accompanied by marked differences in the soil, too. As one starts the climb up to the higher reaches, he begins to leave the brilliant reds and yellows. The colors become more subdued. Browns begin to creep in and then grey-browns. Soon one sees no mote of the brilliant hues that marked the earlier part of the trip. The land is covered with trees and the forest floor with a thick tnat of loose leaf litter. As one gets higher and the temper— ature cooler, the grey soils turn to black. \Vell isn’t this where we started? The soils of the coastal plain were black, too - and usually only organic matter or humus causes this color. In the mountains the organic matter accumulates because the cool temperatures slow down the microorganisms that normally decompose this material. The activity of these organisms is slowed down in the coastal, too, but in this case because oxygen is ex- cluded due to a high water table. So, we have come from the east to the west of Tarheelia. Our observations of soil properties have been limited to topography and color because they're the features most apparent to the casual observer. But the soils differ in many more respects that we can’t discuss here. So the next time you take a trip from Manteo to Murphy or front Raleigh to Newfound Gap or from anywhere to anywhere, for that matter, notice the soil. If you do, you will see an interesting story unfold right before your eyes. Fungus Diseases, A Threat To Southern Forests By ARTHUR KELMAN From the moment that a delicate seedling starts to push through the soil to the time that the mature tree falls to the lumberman’s saw or ax. many diverse diseases may injure or even destroy a growing tree. Although viruses, bacteria. and nematodes as well as certain adverse environmental conditions may cause serious tree maladies, the major disease problems now confronting the forester in the south are those caused by fungus parasttes. Few of the pathogens now prevalent in the south rank in destructive- ness with the chestnut blight fungus, an imigrant from Asia that swept down the Appalachians in the twenties. The highly virulent blight fungus destroyed in a few decades the extensive stands of the valuable American chestnut. a species that had evolved over untold hundreds of centuries. The tremendous economic loss that resulted from the amazingly rapid spread of chestnut blight is an outstanding example of the destructive potential of a tree pathogen introduced into a new environment. It is fortunate that there are no other fungus pests now affecting southern forests that are comparable to the chestnut blight fungus in rate of spread or damaging effects. However, there is no reason to believe that other tree parasites may not be introduced to the south and constant vigilance against such introductions needs to be maintained. Most diseases affecting southern forests are less spectacular and as a 60 result their effects are either overlooked or minimized. In this category are the numerous fungus pathogens that attack tree foliage. Although spots, mildews, and rusts are connnon on both hardwoods and conifers, damage to conifers may be more severe. l‘he brown spot fungus that attacks the foliage of longleaf pine usually causes a decline in growth rate rather than rapid death. However, affected trees may remain in the grass stage for many years and never make normal growth unless the disease is controlled. Stem (tankers and gall rusts are prevalent on many southern trees. Per haps the most important of these is fusiform rust. lf pine seedlings are infected by the fusiform rust fungus in the nursery, mortality following planting may be extremely high. Older trees affected by fusiform rust are subject to windthrow or eventual death If the stem is girdled. A number of wilt diseases are at present affecting southern trees, including Verticillium wilt of maple, mimosa wilt, persimmon wilt and oak wilt; of these the oak wilt disease presents the most serious economic threat to forest resources. Fortunately the rate of spread of oak wilt in comparison with chestnut blight has been relatively slow in \‘Vest Virginia, Tennessee, Kentucky, and North Carolina. It may be virtually impossible to eradicate the oak wilt fungus and difficult to prevent its further invasion of the south. This is a disease with which southern foresters will have to live, although it is hoped that the losses can be kept to a minimum as adequate controls are devised. Although it is true that the spot, rust, canker, gall, and wilt fungi takes a heavy toll of southern forest trees, controls are being developed and improved for many of these and losses may be reduced in the future. In addition decay hazards in standing timber are lessening due to the marked de- crease in stands of mature or overmature trees in the south. However, there is mounting evidence that other types of diseases particularly root diseases will become increasingly important. The major disease affecting pines in the south at present, littleleaf disease of shortleaf pine, is cer— tainly an example of a root disease that has increased in severity during the past 50 years. Forest pathologists in the Forest Service estimate that the littleleaf disease is causing at present significant losses on approximately 5 million acres. Improved nursery procedures and planting methods as well as care in selection of site have had favorable results in the initial growth of many plantations. Yet, there is little or no data on the ultimate future of these extensive plantings in the south. The limited information now available for plantations more than 45 years of age indicates that root decay and butt rot may prevent many of these stands from reaching maturity. A small number of men, mainly forest pathologists in the Forest Service, are attempting to find the methods of control that will be practicable and effective in reducing losses due to fungus as well as other diseases. In terms of the high stakes involved and prospects of increasing disease problems in the south, the need is apparent for an intensification of research efforts and a significant increase in funds and personnel. Foresters will require this res ‘arch assistance in order to cope adequately with these fungus enemies of Southern forests. CO-OPERATIVE RESEARCH Hardwood Utilization By J. 5. Bethel One of the major forestry problems in southeastern United States is that of finding profitable uses for the hardwood species of the piedmont area. Hardwood species are among the most valuable components of the southern forest and many of the southern wood prodttct industries ex'st because fine hardwoods are available in the South. The furniture. veneer. plywood, hardwood lumber and clnnension stock manufacturing plants are typical of industrial facilities that exist in this region only because of presence of fine hardwoods. In general. the high quality hardwoods that are in great demand grow in the lowlands ol~ the coastal plain. the deep river swamps that traverse the piedmont and the coves of the mountain area. In many of the higher. dryer sites in the piedmont. hardwoods also grow. Here they come up as an understory on pine land or they occupy very poor sites. These hardwoods may be. and frequently are. the same species as those considered valuable when growing in the swamps and coves. bttt here they have very little value. Growth is slow. form is poor, and too frequently the stand contains a high percentage of species that are in little demand. Recently there has developed in the South a great interest in developing profitable uses for these hardwoods. The U. S. Forest Service. through its Southeastern Forest Experiment Station. has undertaken a long-range research program designed to develop the information needed to permit wise and economical utiliyation of low quality hardwoods. :\s a part of this program. the Forest Service is providing financial support for part of the hardwood research program of the \Nood Products Laboratory at the School of Forestry. Currently five research projects in hardwood utili- 7ation are being undertaken: l. Hardwood Veneer Log (imdes‘. A long-term project is being conducted which is designed to ultimately develop rational veneer log grades for southern hardwood species. 2. Comparison of Sawmill 11ml Shorl Log Boller [or Producing Poplar Dimension Sloc/t. .\ study is being made to determine whether low quality poplar can be converted directly to dimension stock at lower cost and with better yield on a short log bolter mill than by following the conventional process of first manufacturing factory lumber on a sawmill and then con- verting it into dimension stock in a second cut—up operation. 3. Development of a I’alcliecl Stri/Icore. :\ continuing evaluation is being made of the opportunities for improving yield of lumber core stock from low quality material through the use of a patched strip core technique. -1. Techniques [or (Ionlrolling Grade of I’larrlzeoorl Lumber Producer! on Small Sawmills. The studies begun here on the application of statistical quality control techniques to small sawmill operations are being can- 62 tinued with emphasis on the development of statistical methods for evaluat~ ing grade recovery. 3. Production of l’allels )rom Hardwoods. The increased use of mechan» ical materials handling techniques in industry has created a tremendous demand for wooden pallets. To (late these have been largely produced from pine. .\ study is being undertaken to evaluate hardwoods as pallet materials. The unique facilities of the \‘Vootl Products Laboratory for research have been recogniIed by the Forest Service in the establishment of its hardwood utilization research program. There is every indication that the Forest Service will wish to continue to include the hardwood utilization research program of the School of Forestry in its long-range program for advancing the use of low quality hardwoods. This combination of research facilities constitutes a happy marriage and promises to be fruitful in its production of research results. Joint Project for Determining Justifioble Expenditures and Point of Diminishing Returns for Forest Fire Control in the Tennessee Volley Counties of North Carolina By H. PLOTKIN The major objective of this project. is to determine justifiable expendi- tttres for fire control for the Tennessee Valley (lounties of North (larolina. This area is composed of approximately 2.710.000 acres of forest land in \‘Vestern North (Iarolina. The specific objectives of this project are: I. Establishment of an allowable burn for each county within the project area. 2. The determination of justifiable expenditures. 3. To aid fire control administration officials in explaining and justify- ing their fiscal requirements. If. The development and the testing of a practical method for determining allowable burn and justifiable expenditures. Participating in this project are North Carolina Division of Forestry. Tennessee Valley .-\uthorily. and North (Iarolina State (Iollege. june 30. 1952 marked the close of a successful fire control project between T.\"..\. and the N. (I. Division of Forestry during which the average annual burn was 0.22“.) The project was for a five year period. The average annual burn for the five years preceeding the project was 1.6%. Total fire control funds for the pre-project period was 2.5 cents per acre per year. Fire control funds during the project. amounted to 7 cents per acre per year. 63 At present, the N. C. Division of Forestry maintains a strong and elli- cient fire control organization in the project area. Thus, the determination of justifiable expenditures is no“ deemed appropriate. The procedure to be followed requires the study and application of basic factors of fire control, forest economics and forest influences. Specifi- cally, the following steps are indicated. 1. Determine the relative importance or values of forest land as they relate to the degree of protection needed. Two values of the forest that are under consideration are timber and watershed protection values of the forest. Then using these values. determine the allowable burn. 2. Determine the relative importance of various factors that affect lire control action by a given fire control organization. The size of the protection load can then be developed. 3. Determine justifiable expenditures, in relation to allowable burn and protection load. The phase of the project that is bemg developed in conjunction with the School of Forestry is the determination of the water protection values of the forest.

Annual Message to the Alumni A. B. HAl-‘l-ZR, Press. «I. (I. BLAKI- v, I'ice Praia: G. K. SLOCUM, Sm"y.-Trens. Every year there is news for alumni concerning the alma mater. The school has grown, is growing and will grow because of you or in spite of you. The older ones of us are literally and ﬁguratively lost when we go back. At the Columbia Section meeting several of us discussed the school and without criticizing anyone, we agreed that fate favored the school with the proper administration at the right time. Who could have done better in starting a forest school than Dr. Hofmann. W'ho could do better in the progress of administering a school with over a million dollars value than Dick Preston. Some of the old land marks are still present (Slocum, for instance, and it wouldn't be the same school without him). And new land marks are being added almost daily. Acquaint yourself with the new pulp and paper project. This is an expensive and impressive addition. Dr. Dick has gotten the outstanding faculty of the country. Roy Carter has a woodshop worth $25,000. If I could play with that. my family would see me only when I got hungry. The last news I heard was that the son of one of the alumni may possibly enter forestery at State next year. The old man was my poker playing room- mate. Hope the boy does as well in his studies as his old man, but then I don’t think Bill Cooper could make the grades now that he made then. The faculty looks a little more foreboding. Here are the predictions (Drew Pearson Hafer): \Vith the growth of the school and the numerous openings available in forestry, the school is fast outgrowing the east campus. It is suggested that the entire school of forestry will move to \Vest Blvd. where the sawmill, drykilns, treating plant, pulp and paper machinery, wood shop and all the other equipment can be in proximity to the classrooms. Here is what is expected of us as alumni: (let good students for the school. You can trust the school to put out men that will give you a run for your own job. In a few years, Bill Cooper may be asking his son for a job. The courses haven’t gotten any easier, I have been told. and only above average high school graduates are wanted. The school has some “flip charts" that make selling N. C. State (Iollege of Forestry a rather simple chore. \Vhy not borrow one and give a 10 minute program in your high school assembly. You may pick up some good prospects. A scout troop is another good prospecting ﬁeld. A few Eagle Scouts can’t be too bad for students of forestry. liven though you may have graduated from a young school without all the new accessories, so far as the public is concerned you are a graduate of the best forestry school in the country and who can refute it.
