, Helena r iremen a Muster. The team hopes to show the form that made Sandy one of the top teams on the West Coast
in recent years.
A three pronged approach is
necessary to get out-of-work
Oregonians back on the payroll,
according to ore candidate trying
to get himself a job in the Oregon
Senate
D u rin g a cam paign swing
through Sandy last week, Steve
Starkovich, a Democrat seeking
the Senate District 14 seat, told The
Post that proper zoning, delivery
of basic services, and new and ex
panded industry are the keys to
getting the unemployed employed
And the best way to do that, he
said, is involve local officials.
“ No one knows what's better for
Sandy than the people in Sandy,"
Starkovich said.
Using that pitch, he claims he
has enlisted the bipartisan support
of a number of city and county of
fic ia ls

Starkovich mustered support
from that group and others last
Thursday to host a reception for

‘We have some land that's zoned
industrial that shouldn't be,"
Starkovich said, "and some land
that’s not that should be.” PI ugg
mg in local ideas can avoid those
situations, he said
Once the zoning is straightened
out, basic services such as roads
and sewer services have to be
available. The 1.5 percent property
tax limitation proposal on the
November ballot could throw a
real monkey wrench into that
w ho le
p ro cess,
h o w e v e r,
Starkovich fears.
“ How are we going to develop
these sites without a property
tax?” he asked
Attracting new industry and
broadening the existing industrial
base should be a concern of the
state, he said. At the same time,
however, Starkovich doesn't think
the state should lose its “ p ar
ticular, fussy" attitude about what
concessions are made to accom
modate new industries
The state has yet to take full ad
vantage of international trade, he
feels. What the Americans export
are products tied to skilled labor,
so the state and nation can’t cut
back on education and hope to
compete in the international
market place, Starkovich said.

In remarks at the reception,
Royer echoed Starkovich’s con
cern for cities.
" I don’t think any of us can
disagree with taking destiny into
our own hands and making deci
sions closer to home, especially in
regard to cities,” Royer said.
Starkovich advocates balancing

Muster crew readies attack
In the late 1970s, the San

reputation on the West
Coast for its muster team

its 1940 Chevrolet Howard-
Cooper fire truck in a
muster in Prineville
Recently, however, the
team has been less active
That is until this weekend
when a new team travels to
St. Helens to compete in
that community’s annual
Firem en’s Muster.
Gary McQueen, a team
veteran with three year's
experience, said this is
“ kind of a start-over year.”
But that may not be as bad
as it sounds
Despite the relative inex
perience of the team, it has
been "setting state records
and West Coast records in
practice,” he said.
Under the watchful eye
of timer Tam m y Stalvig,
the team has been practic
ing for a number of weeks
“ She tells us whether
we re going too fast or too
slow," McQueen said, “ and
it’s usually too slow "
A t the tw o -d a y St.

team will compete with its
trusty 1940 fire tr u c k -if
team members can find a
way to transport it to the

They will also vie with
other firefighters in the
hose c a rt and bucket

Queen said the local team
hopes to talk wives and girl
friends into competing in
the women's competition in
the bucket brigade battle.
