...here, going to the town dump in a nearby canyon has long been a favorite pastime, not only on Sunday. In the cool of the evening, the pines surround the area, dark and mysterious, and the purple mountains are etched against the glow of the setting sun.

The order books were filled for months ahead, and the mills were pouring at near-record rates. The figure last week: 86% of the industry's newly expanded capacity, 2,439,000 actual tons and a volume within hollering distance of the 2,525,000-ton alltime peak set in December 1956.
