NOTES ON FOLKS
Will run in District 1
Bugas announces Senate candidacy
State Representative Ted Bugas
(R-Astoria) announced last week that
he is running for State Senator for
District 1. District 1 is comprised of
all of Clatsop and Columbia counties,
and part of Washington County.
“One of the major reasons I’m
running is to provide our area with
more effective representation in the
Oregon Senate. It was quite clear to
those who watchéd the 1981
Legislature that the Senate was up to
its knées with politicians, people
whose main interest was in playing
petty partisan games. Time and
again, they put politics before
people,” Bugas said.* “A good
example is when they refused to pass
a reform of Oregon’s land use laws.
The House had to take the lead and
practically shove it down the Senate’s
throat.”
Bugas is currently serving his third
term in the Oregon House, first
elected in 1976. He has served on the
powerful House Judiciary Committee
and the Agriculture and Natural
Resources Committee since his first
term in 1977. In the 1979 and 1981
session, he also served on the
leadership committee of the House,
Legislative Rules and Operations.
“Without question, the biggest
issues in this election year will be jobs
and the economy. Too many people in
the Legislature talk a good game
about how they are going to fight to
provide more jobs. And yet little is
done,”' Bugas said. “The last
Legislature didn’t do much to help
out dur economy, and yet that is the
cause of most of this state’s
problems. We can’t afford to ignore
what is at the root of our problems, a
stumbling economy, much longer.”
Bugas said he would advocate
using such incentives as tax credits to
encourage business to expand and
restricting the increasing flow of
bureaucratic rules and regulations
which are nothing more than
stumbling blocks for small businesses
or people who want to start a
business.
“In my opinion, Oregon’s economy
is dangerously close to the edge of
disaster. The Legislature in the next
session can pull it off that ledge or
push it over. I just think people in
Columbia, Clatsop and Washington
counties need a stronger voice in the
Senate. We must put a breath of life
back into our economy and put
Oregonians back to work,” Bugas
said.
Thanks extended
We would like to take this
opportunity to thank our many
friends and neighbors for the many
calls,
cards
and
words
of
understanding at the passing of my
dear wife and mother, Evelyn Gibson.
We also thank you . for the
contributions we received which will
be used in our church building
program in her name.
We Would also like to thank the
ladies of the Branch Relief Society for
the music furnished at the funeral
service. Also for the wonderful lunch
served after the services.
May God bless each one of you.

Board calls for
Hanlon's resignation
Seniors schedule auction
To the Editor:
To Senator Hanlon;
The Mist Birkenfeld Fire , District
at their September 8, 1981 meeting,
voted in majority after due
consideration, to ask you to resign.
We feel that you have failed to meet
your moral obligation, and failed
miserably to represent us. Also, you
deliberately let petty politics get in
the way of the need of your district,
and in the corner of your file on HB
2620 you had written the word KILL.
We know nothing of your dislikes
for Representatives Magruder and
Bugas, but that should not get in the
way
of
good
government.
Consequently, because of your
actions, we are unable to feel your
need for the community.

The County Council of Senior
Citizens is having an auction sale at
the VFW Hall in St. Helens on
October 17, beginning at 10 am. The
money earned is used throughout the
county for emergency medicine or
food for senior citizens. A drastic
•decision for. a senior oh a fixed income
is whether to buy food or medicine,
sometimes there being too little
money to buy both.
The senior advocate in each area
has the information and the check
book to help those who need this help.
Since we know the need exists we
raise several hundred dollars every
year for this purpose, helping our
neighbors through a bad time.
Mr. Ishmael, a professional
auctioneer,, will volunteer his time to
auction off the donated articles. We
need donations of good usable items
to sell. If you have any get in touch
with the senior advocate or your
senior citizen’s center. And we need
people to come and see what is on
sale, let us help our neighbor this
winter by helping now.
For more information get in touch
with the senior center in your area.
Cold weather creates fire hazards
The coming months of cold weather
áre expected to create new fire
hazards related to heating equipment.
This was the leading cause of fire in
Oregon last year, and 70 percent of
those were caused by wood heating
appliances. Oregonians can best
protect their family from fire by
observing a few simple fire
prevention practices.

Hopkins joins honor society
Persons planning to purchase a
wood heater are encouraged to choose
one that carries a listing by a
recognized testing agency, and to be
sure the entire installation is done
according
to
manufacturer’s
instructions.
Chimneys should be inspected
semi-annually, and buildups of
creosote removed to reduce the
chance of a dangerous chimney fire.
Proper
installation
and
maintenance of smoke detectors
could reduce Oregon’s residential fire
deaths by an estimated 79 percent.
Forced air furnaces should be
serviced annually for safe, efficient
operation.
Residential fires can be reduced by
the same factors that cause
them—men, women and children.
