Tales of Flat Tires from Myrtle Point Memories
In a 1974 Myrtle Point column, Leland P. Lina recalls school leadership in Ashland and Myrtle Point, then recounts a 1930s and 1940s era road trip plagued by flat tires. He details tire patches, rim drives, and the long, blustery journey from Camas Valley to Bandon with multiple flats and car repairs.
