Hood Freeway, Chapter 2 It’s a whole new ball game on the Mt Hood Freeway. \\ hen the voters refused last week to divert highway funds for mass transit, the anti-roads lobby was brought up short The Mt. Hood Freeway, long their pet target, suddenly took a new lease on life. Had the mass transit measure (No. 2) been approved, there would have been absolutely no reins on mass transit. But this isn't what the voters wanted Quite obviously, they opted for a middle course, a course tar more intelligent than that taken by some local politicians. Mass transit might magically solve all our problems if (a) it were in stantly available <b> reliable and reasonably priced and (c) only passenger cars taking people to dow ntown Portland used our roads. I'nfortunately, 20 or 25 per cent of the traffic on local freeways consists of trucks. How are you going to put a load of lumber or a batch of newsprint on a bus? And you surely can’t run these trucks down neighborhood side streets. What we need is a Mt. Hood Freeway with provision for both vehicular traffic and mass transit. An extremely important meeting on the freeway is scheduled next Wednesday in Portland. East County residents, who have a very large stake in the freeway, should be heard. Thus far, the anti-roads lobby has made all the noise. Buttressed by the demonstrated feelings of the voters, it's time for someone to speak up for a balanced approach to our transportation needs. Money raised for students selected for National Band Voters cast no’s against money measures, and consumers mourn over thin wallets and bedraggled checkbooks. Even so, a local businessmen together with the efforts of the Sandy Area Chamber of Commerce, have proved people still haven’t let their overriding concern towards greenstuff overcome goodwill. Duane Knapp, owner of Firwood Veneer Corp , recently offered to donate a hand some sum to the money drive held for the five outstanding Sandy Union High School students who qualified for the United States Honor Band and Choir. The drive was created to earn money for these students since they are required to pay travel expenses for their upcoming international tour themselves. Knapp dared the Sandy Area Chamber of Commerce to match his offer. Chamber member and enthusiastic, civic-minded Ed Burke volunteered to spearhead efforts to meet the dare. After walking from one end of town to the other—an all day affair—Burke had compiled Knapp's impressive challenge from Sandy businesses as well as private individuals Sandy High School symphonic band members chosen to the U.S. Band were H O W A R D B E R G E R , ex e c u tiv e vice president of the Clackamas County Bank, accepts a check which will help three Sandy Union High School students travel this summer on a European tour with the United States Honor Band and Choir. The Bob Edgar. Roger Harrison, Mike Wecker and Susan Johns. Nancy Taylor was chosen to join the U S . Honor Choir. Unfortinately, Susan Johns and Mike Wecker will be unable to make the unique summer tour due to personal and family conflicts. Besides accepting donations such as the generous check offered via the Sandy Chamber of Commerce and Duane Knapp, the talented young people actually got out and worked for their necessary travel funds themselves. Dubbed “project work” , they toiled over outdoor labor and house repair and cleaning for two dollars an hour. Don Gardner, instrumental music director at Sandy High School, reports the students earned a total of $600 Thanks to the added help from com munity fund raisers, the threesome will embark June 22 for Stockholm, site of the first nine performances in Scandanavia and Eastern and Western Europe Their 26-day tour will include concerts in Denmark, East Germany, West Germany, Czechoslovakia.

Thomas Cutsforth of the C lackam as County Sheriff’s Department as part of the scheduled agenda at tonight's meeting (June 6) of Firwood’s Neighbors Inc. scheduled for 7:30 p.m., Room 48 at Sandy Union High School. Knipe, who has spent over nine years with the Department of Labor, works with the Portland office of the federal agency charged with the local implementation and administration of the recently enacted minimum wage bill (Public Law 93-259), which contains the amendment prohibiting children under 12 from harvesting berry and bean crops. The new child labor law provisions have drawn comment from several of Oregon’s federal legislators. Senators Packwood and Hatfield and Congresswoman Edith Green have expressed concern regarding the effect of the prohibition of kids in the berry fields on Oregon’s agricultural future and the futures of the youngsters who have been so traditionally a part of it. Sgt. Cutsforth’s presentation on ef fective methods of crime prevention will offer suggestions about some of the problems common to county residents. A question and answer period will follow each discussion. On July 13 the Clackamas County Unit, American Cancer Socie‘ y, will hold their second “ Bike-A-Thon” in which riders get pledges from friends, relatives, and business firms for each mile they finish on the 22 mile course The route will cover the first half of the previous run, starting at the Clackam as Community college, going through B eavercreek and Redland, and circling back to the college for the lunch break There are extra challenges this year in addition to the fund raising The rather hilly course will be ridden by a member of a bikers club.

If the voltai teers have no physicians or have no finds, they will be sent to free clinics. I was happy to read the letter by Wayne L. Johnson who deplores that chtrch members are permitted to have long hair. I am glad that people are at last waking up. I bake loaves of bread for a restaurant in Portland. The other day I was discussing those who have long hair and beards, and some smart-alec piped up, " D iA i’t Jesus Christ have long hair and a beard?” I was so mad I fetched him a crack across the head with one of my loaves of bread which had just cooled. It laid him out and fractured his skull, and now some shyster lawyer wants to take me to court, and the owner of the restaurant wants me to put more yeast in the dough to lighten the loaves. You win some, you lose some, I guess . Cordially, Sarah Algood Franklin Hotel Portland You'll nominate our bank for an award when you see all the services we offer.
