FRIDAY, OCTOBER 20, 2017 THE BAKER COUNTY PRESS — 9 Local & Entertainment Bebe’s word search Mechanic helped keep the Blue Angels soaring CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 “As far as military aircrafts, there’s three dif- ferent phases,” explained Bennett. “One is Squadron Level, where they do lower bits, changing actuators, panels, and stuff like that. Then there’s intermediate where they do a little more intrusive, like they take wings off, fl ight control, stuff like that. “And then what I did was basically depot-level, which is you bring them in for periodic maintenance, for inspections, and we stripped all the panels off, the wings off, fl ight con- trols, and take them down to basically a skeleton.” Bennett said that when working on aircraft, they had the Center Barrel Pro- gram, where they take an F-18 and cut it into three sections, the center section being the barrel section the wings attach to, and put a brand new section in. “It becomes a product that’s unrecognizable until you put it all back together again and it turns back into an F-18,” explained Bennett. Wyden holds town hall CONTINUED FROM PAGE 8 “I heard this past week- end from students at the University of Oregon who had a 4.0 grade average were working two jobs and were sending money to their parents. “These are exactly the kind of young people we want. “And they were telling me, ‘Ron, I want to serve in the military. I want to be in police. I’d like to be able to earn money to be able to help my fam- ily’. These are exactly the people that we want to have. So I personally feel very strongly that we should say these dreamers have done nothing wrong,” explained Wyden. He said, “I want us to pass a bill by the end of this year saying that these young people can stay, young people who have done nothing wrong and have a good track record and no evidence of com- mitting crimes. “I think we will be a better and stronger nation if we had those dreamers here.” Wyden ended the meet- ing by sayin, “I’m going to do everything I can to unpack these fundamental problems and come up with policies that build on what I think our country’s always been about, which is giving everybody in America the chance to get ahead. That’s what we’re all about. “We’re strongest and we’re at our best when we give the chance for every- body to get ahead and it comes back particularly for purposes like tonight. “You don’t day that small, rural communities are sacrifi ce zones and that’s the way it goes. “Not on my watch.” The Littles’ crossword puzzle Theater auditions open Eastern Oregon Region- al Theatre is proud to an- nounce auditions for their fi nal show of the season "A Little Christmas Spirit" will be held Monday and Tuesday evening October 23rd and 24th at 6 p.m. at the Irongate Theatre in the Basche Mall in Baker City Oregon.
