ill.; "Interviewed by Stephen R. Mark on November 30, 1988; Transcribed by Chris Prout, July 1997." - T.p.
Topics include interviewee's education, road and trail building 1928-1934, heavy equipment, Civilian Conservation Corps Wineglass Camp, C. F. Arant-his father, and the first Crater Lake National Park superintendent-his grandfather W.F. Arant.; To the reader: Howard Arant had the double distinction of working at Crater Lake from 1928 to 1934 and being the grandson of the first park superintendent, W.F. Arant. I met him and his wife early in my employment as park historian, after becoming aware of their collaboration on two articles in the Table Rock Sentinel published by the Southern Oregon Historical Society during the mid 1980s. After visiting them at their Medford residence in August 1988, I saw them again for a short taped interview about three months later. The transcript of that interview is short, in part because a large portion of the information they shared appears in my fieldnotes, and the fact that both Mr. and Mrs. Arant had colds that day. Nevertheless, the following transcription is an important addition to the record along with some Crater Lake photographs that the Arants graciously allowed the park to copy. Stephen R.
