10- SANDY (O r*.) POST Thur« . July 6 197.8 (Soc ,) Latter day Robin Hoods Local archers set high targets Had Sharon Ulrich and Nell Barbee been born a few hundred years earlier, they might have been recruited to tour with Robin Hood's band of m erry men Since the pair was relegated to the 20th Century, they must be content to tour the Northwest in search of showcases where they can exhibit their skills. But they’re not complaining And they are exhibiting their skills. Last weekend both Ulrich, of Sandy, and Barbee, of Gresham, competed in the National Field Archery Association Northwest Sectionals in Vancouver, Wash. Both finished second in their respective classes against competitors from Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Mon tana, Wyoming and Alaska U lrich tied for first after regulation competition, but lost by three points in a three-target shootout. Not too shabby for someone who didn’t grow up preparing to be the next Sitting Bull. “ I ’ve been shooting for barely one year,” Ulrich said. “ My husband (Ron) has been shooting for quite a while and I ’ve watched other people for a long time, but I didn’t start to shoot until last year.” U lrich said that just by watching other archers she was able to learn a lot about technique. “ I could talk a good game before I ever started shooting,” she said. " I learned all the excuses early.” Competition at the sectionals consisted of three categories: hunting, animal and field. Out of a total 560 points for each target, Ulrich collected 519 for the field, 514 for the hunting and 552 for the animal. “ Our fam ily grew up and all of a sudden we had nothing to fill our tim e,” Barbee said. “ Archery filled the void.” Barbee has won the sectionals on two previous oc casions and has a room full of archery awards as well. Two weeks ago both she and Ulrich won their classes at the state shoot in Lebanon. SHARON ULRICH demonstrates the methods of firing arrows. Ulrich, an archer who lives in Sandy, has won recent archery events in Vancouver and Lebanon. Barbee, meanwhile, is a 16-year veteran of the sport. She and her husband Keith took it up at the same time. r----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The archer who beat Barbee in Vancouver used a trigger release on her bow, a device Barbee thought provided the winning edge. From page one “ Archers who use the trigger release always do better,” Barbee said. “ But I don’t like it. I like to feel my fingers on the string.” Budget cuts fought cut is equivalent to only seven deputies’ salaries, Renfro must let go of his five CETA deputies before making any further cuts. Before the commissioners Friday, Renfro cited a poll in a Portland newspaper regarding the proposed tax limitation measure. “ Only five percent (of those questioned) said we should reduce police and fire protection (if the initiative were to pass). That makes95 percent who supported police and fire service. . “ In my own department, I ’ve held down costs in other areas and put more uniformed officers in the neigh borhoods. That’s what people say they want.’’ Renfro suggested that the commissioners listen to the citizens before making their own budget decisions. Commissioner Ralph Groener sup ported Renfro. “ I cannot condone taking 11 deputies off the road when people are saying that’s what they want,” Groener said. Referring to the sheriff’s dependence on CETA employees, Groener said, “ I t ’s our (the commissioners’ ) fault we allowed the sheriff’s budget to get to where it is now.” Groener said he would be willing to cut the budgets for court construction and the Human Resources Department finance section to contribute to the sheriff’s department. Commissioner Robert Schumacher reminded Groener that the county had already cut $50,000 from the cost of building a courtroom for new Circuit Court Judge Charles Sams. "You've got to find out what damage this w ill do to the departments. . you cut,” Schumacher argued. “ We need something thought out and appropriate I think the people would be less than satisfied if we did a last-minute hatchet job because of a political jab,” meaning Renfro’s point. Rock Creek resident Shirley Leedy concluded that “ the overall priority of V Barbee said she could shoot accurately from a distance of 100 yards. The targets at the sectionals range from 35 feet to 80 yards. Barbee and Ulrich are members of the local Sylvan Archers club While Barbee estimated there were close to 10,000 archers in Oregon, Ulrich believed that relatively few of those live in the Portland area. the budget com m ittee is ad m inistration, not services I would hate to think that the budget committee would face the (tax lim ita tio n measure) in the same light it has faced this budget cut.” Leedy, a staunch supporter of Renfro’s budget request, was joined by Oak Grove resident Mona Hoffman, who commented, “ Any cut in law en forcement is not prudent in our county. Police service does the most good for the most people. It serves all ages and all socio-economic groups. ” While Renfro had support both on and off the commission, Milne appeared to be a m inority. “ The volume of transactions and the demand for services (in the surveyor’s office) has increased year to year since 1949,” Milne said. “ Our land record files have more than doubled in the last 12 years.” Milne felt that, given this increasing workload, it would be impossible for him to carry out his duties as required by state law under the cut. Milne said he would ask for a review by the state Department of Revenue or the Circuit Court before letting go of any of his staff. “ I w ill not discharge my people without a court order,” he said. By cutting out the surveying crew, the commissioners were effectively cutting out Milne's funtion as main tainer of the county’s monuments, or land markers, as well as on-site in spection of lot boundaries. Schumacher contended in budget hearings the former function was unnecessary and the latter a duplication of private surveys. Milne responded that the purpose of his office’s surveys is to “ protect the future owner against boundary con flicts that can arise.” Without public surveys, Milne felt, boundary disputes w ill turn into lawsuits more and more frequently. Milne won support from Com missioner Stan Skoko. “ I'm not going to be party to any cuts in the surveyor’’, office,” Skoko declared. _______________ r~~ Response asked by city manager In the wake of last week's city serial rate levy defeat, City Manager Paul would like to find out what it is that turned voters off. He has compiled the following list of questions and has had them circulated throughout town to “get a reading” on how people feel about the budget process. Following is the list of questions: Dear Sandy Voter: With the failure of the Tax Levy vote on June 27th, 1978 for the City of Sandy, it is incumbent upon the City to try and percieve why. Therefore, we would hope you would help us by an swering a few very im portant questions. Please put an X in the appropriate box and return to City Hall. 1. Are you opposed to the 3- year Serial Levy concept? 2. Are you opposed to the $6 50 per M rate? 3. Is any portion of the budget objectionable to you as a taxpayer? > J " 1 > Public notices C IT A T IO N NO.

Would you prefer a Serial Levy for police ser vices only? 5. Can you tell us your top priority as far as services required? Such as Police, Water & Sewer, Library, Senior Center, etc. 6. If you had to cut dollars out of the budget, what sercives would you cut? 7. Do you understand that the bonded indebtedness on the Water System and the C om m unity Center are already approved by the vo ters; and th at the operations of the City is the only portion of the budget we are asking you to vote upon? 8 Any innovative ideas or constructive suggestions on how your city may better serve you, would be greatly appreciated Waste heat considered for use in localities The possibilities of putting waste heat from industry to work in adjacent com munities and businesses are being explored in a new Northwest and Oregon State University research project. The program is viewed as a potential energy source and saver for the future, says Dwight J. Bushnell, OSU m echanical engineering professor who heads up the university work on waste heat energy. The cooperative concept is common in many European countries and cities, he noted. “ It would appear to have promise for the Northwest and the nation,” Bushnell said. “ Certainly a thorough study to find out is in order.” The P a c ific Northwest Regional Commission, under the direction of the governors of Oregon, Washington and Idaho, has authorized the study. Rocket Research Company of Redmond, Wash., is the prime con tra c to r and OSU was selected as a sub contractor to spearhead the study in Oregon. Substantial amounts of heat and warm water are discharged by most large in d u s tr ia l o p e ra tio n s , Bushnell pointed out. “ Whether it can be put to economical use for both the industry concerned and its home com m unity and business-industry neighbors is the question.” Bushnell and a team of engineering professors and graduate students w ill make evaluation visits to more than 35 industrial plants before fall. Industries of all kinds are included: paper, lumber and plywood mills, manufacturing plants, metal processing plants and foundries, food processing operations, etc The industrial evaluation visit focuses on the quantity and quality of the waste heat and the potential for recovery. The engineers also are surveying adjacent com m unities and business- industry areas to see what uses might be made of any heat energy that could be recovered. An example of what could come from the project is the aquaculture operation that has been developed in con ju n ctio n w ith the Weyerhaeuser m ills in Springfield, Bushnell pointed out. Warm waste water from the forestry operations has been used to great advantage in the establishment of an extensive fish farm operation. Fish growth is significantly speeded in the warm water environment Leaders in the industrial plants visited to date have been very receptive to the concept of trying to find ways to put waste heat-energy to productive uses in th e ir areas of possible, Bushnell reported “ They are very mindful of the impending shortages of power and the increasing costs of fuels of all kinds.” Much of the industrial heat " is re la tiv e ly low grade energy,” the engineer said “ There’s a lot of 90 degree water discharged by plants at the end of manufacturing operations, for example Recovery w ill pose problems in many cases New uses must be feasible — engineering wise and cost wise," Bushnell emphasized The objectives of the program are to determine the economics of recovering the waste heat, transporting that energy outside the plant, and determining the best technical and economical use w ith in the surrounding community, Bushnell said B o n n e v il l e Pow er A d m in is tra tio n has ex pressed interest in the project, he added because it could represent a sup plemental source of energy in some areas of the greater Northwest. The work is another at tempt to seek out and con serve all possible sources of energy, the engineer sum marized. “ Every alternative is being checked out.” Working with Bushnell are Profs. Lorin R Davis and M ilto n Larson; graduate students Alan G rill and Robert M acduff and un dergraduates in engineering Gary Cuddyford and Jim Fort. Shooting contest scheduled A black powder shooting contest w ill be held Satur day, July 8 on 362nd Avenue south of Nelson Memorial Park Contestants can register between 8 a m. and 9:30 a m. M atches w ill run con tinuously all day. Special events w ill happen at 10 a m. and 2 p.m. The contest is sponsored by the Barlow T rail Long Rifles, and is restricted to muzzle loading rifles. PGE promotes insulation Customers of Portland General Electric Company who use electricity to heat their homes may soon be able to have them weatherized with interest- free loans, a company spokesman reported last Friday. PG E’ s proposal was submitted to Oregon Public U t i l i t y C o m m is s io n e r Charles Davis and requires his approval before it can be put into effect. The proposal is an addition to PGE’s e xistin g w eatherization program pre vio u sly ap proved by thePUC. The purpose of the program is to reduce the heating requirements of residential dwellings through the installation of permanent energy saving materials, according to PGE’s Bruce Landrey. Weatherization services offe re d under the PGE program include insulating ceilings and floors, adding storm windows and storm doors, plus weather stripping and caulking. It also includes wrapping ductwork pipes and water heaters, installing timed set-back controls for heating systems, and adding v e n tila tio n and ground cover. In addition, upon request of a residential customer, PGE w ill install an insulation blanket free of charge on an electric water heater located in an unheated area of the customer’s home (provided the water heater was in stalled before July 1,1978 ). Under the program, a PGE representative w ill first conduct a home energy analysis to determine the w eatherization needed, Landry said. The utility w ill then arrange for the weatherization work to be done by an independent contractor. PGE has had a similar program in effect for almost two years. The e a rlie r program was used as a model for new laws passed during the 1977 legislature requiring all suppliers of electricity, natural gas and home heating oil to adopt weatherization programs. Currently PGE offers the program to its electric heat custom ers w ith the weatherization financed at six-and-a-half percent in terest and repaid through monthly utility bills. If the PUC approves P G E ’s proposal, the homeow ner can use either the present low- interest financing or receive an interest-free-loan to be repaid when the home is sold or ownership transferred. In a letter to David, PGE stated that "re s id e n tia l weatherization in PGE’s service area has almost come to a standstill.” The letter urged Davis to approve the proposal as soon as possible. Prospects for more in sulation programs and the fact that many customers are not aware of the total benefits from weatherization are cited by PGE as the main reasons for present lack of public interest Please re tu rn this questionaire to City Hall by Monday, July 10th.
