According to the Nevada County Democrats who attended the McGovern for President caucus in Chico Saturday, it was a mink-to-moccasin, youththrough-age attendance, all focusing their efforts to make successful the first statewide attempt at grass-root reform of the nation's method of selecting presidential candidates. Thirty-seven nominees from every segment of the population were chosen, and the final required 12 showed a surprising cross-section from the large second congressional district, of which Nevada county is a member. ’ The 232 registered voters present gave the nod to Grass Valley's George Burcham, There were, besides Mr. Burcham, five men and five women elected, including a just-18year-old black girl, Kathy Scott. Six of the 12 candidates will be. chosen to be McGovern delegates; each congressional district will have a representative toassist in the choice. They will meet this week at the Sheraton-Palace Hotel in Los Angeles. Debbie Rossi, the 22-year-old student. was* selected as the second district representative.

Smith Among statistics calculated make one sit up and take eek is this little dilly from a survey made by the Responsive Analysis Corporation of Princeton, N. J., for the National Bureau of Advertising: "There were 31.2 million working women in the United States in 1970 as compared to 12.8 million working women in 1940, Between 1960-70, the number of working women increased 35% — or more than twice as fast as the 16% growth for the’ total population." It certainly doesn't take any particular genius for math to figure ahead — on that basis — to some rather incredible possibilities within the next ten years, does it? * ; * * *K * A senior citizen friend of mine has just returned from an extended visit with relatives on the East Coast. Her family ; expressed concern about her return West. .to an area none of them has ever seen. or, wanted to apparently. They told her, she says, that "any time you want to come back here where it is quiet, cultured and civilized, dear, we'll have a place for you." She said it made her feel as tho’ she were returning to a "Cavalry and Indians" situation back in the 1800's. . . .and went on to say that her brief tours of New York City, Washington, D.C., and other such "civilized" centers back yonder, made her more than ready to return to the blessings of life in Nevada County! * kK * Gadzooks! What they won't take a census on next! But it is certainly a big relief to know that the "long toed Salamander Survives". -in Santa Cruz, at least. A friend of mine, who is an inveterate seeker of the odd and unusual in newspapers, sent me a wire service story which assures us that the Santa Cruz long-toed salamander, feared near extinction, apparently is alive and doing quite well, thank you; in its last remaining breeding pond eight miles from that resort city on the Central California coast. A recent weekend count (head. or tail not specified in the article) turned up more than 600 of the eight-inch amphibians. For the more technically minded among us, the proper name for these -shy, friendly, slithery little critters is "Ambystoma macrodactylum croceum." And if you so much as harm a hair (hair on salamanders?) on one of their shy little heads, it'll cost you a fine of $1,000. . .because they are on both the state and federal "endangered species" lists! Thanks for the clipping, Julie things like this are nice to know about! * KOK * There was a minor fenderbender in the 300 block of Broad Street one day recently, and it certainly jammed .up traffic for a period of about 15 minutes or so. After what appeared to be a completely friendly exchange of information between the two involved drivers; and a consultation with an equally friendly policeman, everything somehow got straightened out with a minimum of fuss and furor. Just as traffic began to move again, however, the inevitable happened. . . .Someone came up Pine Street, slowed slightly and made a right turn into Broad. . . slithered to a stop behind the line of slowly moving traffic . . eand started honking impatiently! It really made that party look a bit silly, dontcha know. It must have been a stranger. .rarely do you find any of our locals that are impatient on our admittedly narrow streets.
