The term erratic is used to describe non-native rocks that were carried into the Willamette Valley by flooding between 12,800 and 15,000 years ago. The Stafford Erratic, which is composed of granite, weighs in at nearly 14 tons, (roughly the same size as two African bull elephants), and is the second larg est erratic now known in the Willamette Valley. “From a geological perspec tive this is one of the most impor tant rocks in the valley now,” explained Geology Instructor John Snively. “These kinds of discoveries are major tourist at tractions if put in the right loca tion.” The erratic came to the at tention of Snively last year when one of his students, Allen Pynn, mentioned seeing it when the State Highway Department put in 1-205 about 20 years ago. After finding the location of the erratic, Snively, with the help of Darlene Hooley, spent six months getting the proper per mits from the State Highway Department to relocate it to the John Snively stands next to The Stafford Erratic. Snively and many other members of the community helped bring the erratic to CCC. CCC campus. When permission was finally received to move the rock to an other spot, a student of Snively’s class, Gordon Jonesof Clackamas Sand and Gravel, assumed the taskofprojectcooidinator. Jones was able to enlist the donated help of seven different compa nies for the relocation. One of the companies that took part in the move was Ross Bros. Company, Inc., represented by Steve Ross, who supplied most of the work force and much of the machinery. Ross also directed the actual pick-up, delivery and emplacement of the erratic. “I really can’t thank every one who was involved with this project enough,” exclaimed Snively, “especially Allen, Gor don and Steve.

The icebergs that were car ried into the valley with the flood waters would then drift toward the shorelines of the flood where they would melt and deposit their load of rocks, known as erratics and debris. There will be a dedication ceremony for the Stafford Erratic at a later date. At the time of the dedication, a plaque made pos sible by a $1,000 donation from Bob Traverso at Canby Sand and Gravel, will be put on display with the erratic, explaining abrief outline of its history. Students produce, direct one-acts by Nolan C. Kidwell News Editor Three one act plays were pre sented by the Clackamas Drama Department during the last week of Fall Term. All three plays were produced and directed entirely by CCC stu dents. The first of the plays, “San dra and the Janitor,” was directed by Joe Abbott who also played the part of the janitor. The plot of the play centered around the rela tionship of a 17-year-old girl and the grimy janitor of the apartment complex which she lives in. “Their relationship is really awful because they are both seri ously mixed up,” Abott said. “She mostly pesters the janitor,” he explained. “Sometimes you won der if it. isn’t a two way thing, though.” A piece called, “A Morality Play for the Leisured Class,” was directed by Julie Amato. “It is basically a satirical look at the afterlife,” Amato said. She explained that it is a short play about the soul of a gentleman arriving at what he assumes is heaven. Itisrevealedattheendof the play that the soul of this gentle man is in “the other place,” as he refers to it in the play, “New Quixote,” directed by Joe Matukewicz, was about an older woman and a younger man who engage in what the woman assumes is a “one night fling.” However, she wakes up in the morning to find that the younger man thought that there was more commitment behind the previous evening, and has begun to move his belongings into her apartment
