37 was held on Ju ly 21 in conjunction with the La Grande chapter, at Emi- grant Springs State Park. This picnic was the best yet, and those who failed to come will never know how much ice cream, pop, and delicious food was con sumed in true picnic spirit. Deward Winn and his amplifier unit, plus plenty of recordings, furnished the music for those who liked music, and also for a square dance. Our chapter president, Walter Clark, has taken himself a new boss. The mar riage took place during the early sum mer. Congratulations, Walter; By the way, Mrs. Clark and Mrs. Pete Alten burg are champion horseshoe pitchers, as they defeated all contestants, whether man, woman, or child, at the recent picnic. A number of vacations are past his tory, and the big fish that got away are still growing. C. H . Armstrong spent a few days on the Imnaha river, Bob Floch and Lloyd Yeck spent a few days at Minam Lake. Al Wallace was back in the Ukiah country, while Wal- ter Hodge had to go back to his old stomping ground, the good old De schutes river. In all cases, the fish must have been consumed in order to get by the game warden, as your correspond ent failed to see any on exhibit. Our worthy secretary, Homer Rogers, spent his vacation up in the Wallowa coun try, with no comment on activities of amusement. The September meeting of the chap ter was held on the 4th of September, but due to pre-roundup activities not too many turned out. The accumulated business was taken care of and plans were made for a big meeting in Octo ber, with considerable emphasis placed on getting a 100 percent attendance. Considerable interest, as well as confu sion, is the outcome of the new civil service ratings recently received by all employees. L. O. Yeck Press Correspondent Springfield Sand & Gravel Co.
