Mrs. Bowman, daughter of

After attending Oregon Nor­

Benton County schools.
She returned to Curry In 1934
to teach the Wedderburn school
for the next 11 years. In 1943,
the school board decided to send
the five pupils to Gold Beach.
M rs. Bowman went to Gold
Beach as principal and served
In that capacity until she was
forced to take sick leave for
two years (1951-53). On re­
