Thun., March 21, 1974 (Sec. 1) SANDY (Ore.) POST - 5 Letters to the Editor want the security of cluster housing as w ell as the amenities afforded by larger developments. For this reason, Sun River, Salishan and Black Butte have been highly suc cessful and many living right here on the mountain have enjoyed the facilities of these places. Why should not the people of the largest metropolitan area in Oregon be provided with the opportunity of such enjoyment within a tankful of gas of their present homes? Cedar Ridge will make it possible for us to retain the same level of uncrowded living we now enjoy by containing higher (though less than allowable) density in one large area And R E M E M B E R , all of this w ill be done under the HOODLAND PLAN. Gus Turner Wemme map of the Mt. Hood area to grasp a notion that Welches is only a whistle-stop at the edge of a sprawling wilderness. F ro m the sum m it of Huckleberry mountain to the south, a dense rain forest covers the rugged hump of the Cascade range all the way to the California border It is cut by roaring rivers and few roads w hile most of these are primitive. It is possible that no one has ever tread in some dark gloom of the forest beyond a dim trail. I have no quarrel with the en viro n m en talist, for th eir effort is needed to preserve fo rever some p a rt of our wilderness heritage. But to push the panic button while lingering over an excellent dry martini and a view of the golf course is a bit thick. Bill Stout Rhododendron To the Editor: Why are mountain climbers considered a totally separate breed of humanity? Mountain climbing is a sport like skiing, golfing, fishing, etc., but they are totally exempt from any financial responsibility when it comes to their own lives. If a skier breaks a leg, he pays for the ambulance and all expenses incurred by his misfortune. If you have a car wreck, you not only pay for your own expenses but that of the car also such as towing and repairs. Usually this is covered by insurance which is paid for by the in To the Editor: While the environmentalist dividual. Considering the above facts, regards his opponents as short sighted, he often reveals his can anyone explain to me why own limited horizon. Over a when a mountain climber needs cocktail in a lounge at Welches, to be rescued we all pay for it I heard someone bemoaning and he comes out scot free all the vanished wilderness. He set to m ake some money was referring to the rapid w ritin g “ s u rv iv a l” artic le s . growth of this community, Looks like a large case of although it has always been double standard to me. If a climber wants to climb Mt. well populated. For some mysterious reason Hood, he must only sign his those who have summer homes name and take off. From there at Welches regard the neigh on he becomes the respon borhood as the heart of the s ib ility of the volunteer Cascade wilderness.

One has only to glance at a personnel and equipment filled To the Editor: Regarding the cartoon in last week’s Sandy Post, “ Lost Horizons?” 01’ Bill, that was really a bummer. Depicting Cedar Ridge perched atop a mountain peak like the Great Wall of China was unreal and unfunny. Distortions such as this only add to the myriad misconceptions about the project, and make no sense at all.

If a climber requires help due to his own lack of knowledge or stupidity, I feel he should be presented with the bill. In countries like G erm any, Switzerland and Austria they have rescue insurance which the climbers take out to cover their financial responsibility. If they don’t have insurance, it’s like every other uninsured problem—it comes out of their pocket. I do think it is about time the “ New World” learned something from the “ Fatherland” and instituted the same equitable solution to the g larin g omission of equality. Adrienne Shields Rhododendron 100 O re g o n a r tis ts to s h o w , s e ll w o r k Organizers are calling it an “ instant gallery” for Oregon artists. “ It w ill be the largest collection of Oregon art ever assembled at one time under one ro o f,” said P olly Casterline, Gresham, who is chairman of the art show and auction at The Old Church, 1422 SW 11th, Portland.

CARPOOL is a federally funded project which uses computerized matching system to arrange car pools. Questionnaires which feed into the computer are available at 150 locations in the Metro area, including several banks and savings and loan in stitutions, according to project manager Jack Graham. The com pleted question naires — giving name, pickup location, destination and working hours — should be deposited in a display box wherever questionnaires are available. “ W ithin two weeks a fte r re tu r n in g q u e s tio n n a ire , participants will receive up to ten names of interested car poolers whose schedules, pickup points and destinations coincide w ith th e irs ,” ex- piuiiicu Gïôuâîü.

Is organizing the “ in stant gallery for artists” Sunday to benefit Pet turtles can be hazardous to your health. Oregon State U n iversity microbiologist Ramon J. Seidler has the job of tracking down some relatively unknown organisms in the environment that cause messy infections, diarrhea, nausea and other unpleasant symptoms One of the organisms, Aeromonas, was traced to small pet turtles The other, Klebsiella pneumoniae, is show ing up on fresh vegetables. Pet turtles had already fallen into disfavor among public health officials because of their link with the disease causing organisms Salm onella and Arizona At its peak in the late 1960 s and early 1970’s, the sale of pet turtles was a $15 million annual business in the United States There was ap proxim ately one turtle for every 25 homes and some 300,000 Salmonella poisonings a year were at tributed to the turtles, said Seidler Seidler and doctoral can didate R. H McCoy collected turtles from pet supply sources throughout Oregon and C alifornia and found Aeromonas in 63 per cent of the samples Only 20 per cent of the turtles in the same group carried Salmonella organism s. The number of Aeromonas in each sample also was considerably larger than the number of Salmonella organisms. Four other potential human pathogens c a rrie d by the turtles also were found by the OSU reseachers. The result of their work in fluenced the strengthening in some states of a quarantine issued by the U S . Department of H ealth, Education and Welfare in December, 1972, th at prohibits in terstate commerce of turtles that have not been certified as free of Saillioiieua anu AnZOUil. California, for one, has added that turtle shipments into the state must not only be free of Salmonella and Arizona, but “ all other pathogens” as well. The HEW and state quarantines have practically eliminated interstate shipping and selling of pet turtles, making them a rare find in Oregon pet stores.

It is especially common in kidney and bladder infections A study by Seidler and graduate student Carol Brown to isolate and check the frequency of K pneumoniae on fresh vegetables revealed that about 50 per cent of the vegetables examined contained high concentrations of the organism. As a result, Seidler suspects that the hospital acquired in fections associated with K. pneumoniae might be tran smitted to the patients from fresh vegetables and salads served with hospital meals. The link has not been scientifically documented, he said A study of the growth of K. pneumoniae on vegetables was initiated this fall by Chris Eby, an undergraduate student in the D epartm en t of M ic ro biology 3 46 oz. tin« S "I TOMATOES 1 9 1 1 pound ground Turkey 1 cup shredded potatoes T w o -th ir d cup evaporated milk Vs cup snipped parsley Vs cup chopped onion 1 teaspoon W o r cestershire sauce ■n teaspoon salt Vs teaspoon sage Dash pepper V* cup crushed crackers 1 tablespoon b u tte r, melted S tir together tu rk e y , potato, m ilk , p arsley, onion, W orcestershire sauce, salt, sage and pepper, turn into greased casserole Toes together c ra c k e r crum bs and butter, spnnkle atop hash Bake uncovered, in 350 degree oven for 1 hour serves 4. » PAN TRY G o o d M a rc h 2 1 -2 2 -2 3 668-5055
