Jim Evenden in a bark beetle control camp, Big Hole Basin, MT, ca 1930. Evenden headed the Coeur d'Alene Forest Insect Lab that gave technical supervision to control projects in the northern Rocky Mtn. region. He was a big guy (played football at Oregon State College) and most at home in this attire and environment. For a short while in 1954, he was my (M. Furniss) supervisor. The Division of Forest Insect Investigation had just been disbanded and we were transferred to the Forest Service. I was classified as a forester (B.S. degree with minor in entomology) and concerned about my career; at my request (helped by Irene's dinner and biscuits ... see my Founders address), he had me reclassified as an entomologist.
