JULY 13, 195Ô BROOKINGS-HARBOR PILOT. BROOKINGS, OREGON Port Orford News By Dorothy Asdel Family outings, picnics and fireworks were popular here on the Fourth. Bill and Hazel Crose of Central California were vis iting his brother and family, the Lyle Crose on Garrison Lake, over the holidays. They were joined by the Howard Thomas family of Gold Beach and the j Peter Raasinas and children, and all enjoyed a picnic at Hunter’s ( reek. Mr. and Mrs. Bill Crose were on their way home from a trip to Banff and Lake Louise, in anada. . Many families viewed and par ticipated in the traditional an nual fireworks display at Battle Rock beach on the night of the Fourth. Just as darkness was gathering a string of large drifts wood bonfires were lit for sev eral hundred yards along the shore. Then those with fireworks gathered around to set the off— all the way from sparklers to sky rockets and aerial bombs, making a noisy and picturesque scene, enjoyed by the crowd on the bluff as well as the partic- ipants. Later in the w e e k, Richard Johnstone of Albany was a vis- ¡tor at the Hull home here. 4* i Free Advice and Assistance on your Water System Problems by POMONA- WESTCO Water System Fctory Engineers JULY 18 & 19 2 POMONA-WEST- CO factory engineers will be in our store July 18 and 19 to help you!
