The latest news bulletins about Sasquatch are rather unnerving I feel like taking my m em bership card in the National Wildlife Federation and publicly burning it. The e n tire idea of such an organization spending a lot of money in an expedition hunting for the mythical creature has made the federation an object of rid ic u le to m any N or- thwesterners First, let us take a long look at Sasquatch and then a similar look at the federation and see where there would be any logic in the crossing of their trails. To me, and countless other P a c ific N o rth w e s te rn e rs , Sasquatch is akin to Nessie, the monster that is supposed to inhabit Loch Ness in Scotland. Also, our Bigfoot giant is in the triumphant victory over Dallas last week.

W in d o w s throwing rocks down on them from the cliff on the west bank This was during a dry hot spell in summer when rocks become loosened in the lifeless dried out soil and come tumbling down off many steep slopes. In the moonlight, who knows what giant figures the mind can conjure from tree and snag silhouettes after surviving a narrow miss from a falling rock. The Roaring River evidences all turned up one winter, and consisted mainly of rather ill defined footprints(’ ) in the snow. The so called sightings in the St. Helens area have been reported from time to time over the years. Some in fo rm al groups of young people and older people alike have made pilgrimages to these spots, risked life and lim b in rock climbs to some of the cave like aperatures on the side of Ape Canyon, and no group has come up with any real indisputable evidence. Some individuals have accumulated several bits of information including photo6 of indefinable large objects that can, with a little imagination, be likened to a giant creature of sorts. Could it be these creatures are so camera shy they blur their own image on film ! Lately, Northern California in the region of M t. Shasta, has been the scene of new sightings either of shadowy forms or supposed footprints of a large nature.

Like the Loch Ness monster, no connected string of evidence has ever been corroborated The N ational W ild life Federation is supposed to be a s e r io u s c o n s e r v a tio n organization. They claim to be the largest one of this type. They publish beautifu l magazines full of superb color photography and improvement of environment has been a strong elem ent in th e ir presentations. Their record of serious endeavour and ac complishment to date in the fields of conservation and environmental improvement is noteworthy. Their magazines alone are worth more than the price of membership. Why, all of a sudden, do they want to spend a substantial amount of money on a wild goose chase for a myth? They have been advertising on television for new members. Is this latest a publicity stunt designed to put them in the national news — a gimmick to gain notoriety for the purpose of attracting new members? I don't know how much of my membership fees are left over after paying out for the ex cellent magazines all members get, but I resent any part of it being used in financing a chase for a Will-o-the-wisp If they have a p riv a te g ra n t s p ecifically given fo r this purpose, they should say so. Otherwise they could lose more of their old members than the publicity from this stunt would gain them in new members Shoemaker, stick to your last! 4 -H 'e rs p re s e n t c o n te s t Come view the wonderful world of 4-H’ers presentations on S atirday, April 13 starting at 9 a.m .

We certainly are. Our research budget for 1974 is nearly $900,000. Recently we con trib u te d $30,000 to the state of Oregon to aid in the exploration of geothermal sources. And the elec trical industry as a whole has set aside some $100.2 million this year for research. This amount w ill undoubtedly increase each year. Government and the e le c tric a l manufacturing industry, too, have recently increased the size of their research budgets in the quest for new energy sources. Increased research is underway. • Send for PGE's Straight Answer booklet Conservation Center of Portland General Electric Co. P.O. Box 1 7 8 8 ^ t *
