who drove by for a glimpse or,
during the celebration, atopped
oft for the festivities

F oster Hoad meets Oregon Hy

connects with the highway The
big project takes the motorist's
eye as he rounds the turn on
any road
Open just long enough now to
be through the shakedown
stage, Damascus Square haa
proved to be the community’s
new drawing card—its new

joyed Comparable shopping
centers were far apart in that
area, and residential growth in
the Damascus neighborhood

According to s h e riff Joe

to stop these summer vacation

" I would be derelict in my

not guarantee the patrol in your
district would have the op
