Councilor Amy Ripp asked
if any research had been done
to know the average age of
students at the hair academy.
“I haven’t done any re-
search,” Johnson responded. “I
have a hard time believing this
career school is primarily at-
tended by minors.”

medical marijuana facility task
force met last year, there were
maps showing the distances
from schools.
“We never included the
property where Tangled Ends
is,” Brown said.
Councilors unanimously
approved the amendment to
the ordinance.
Johnson noted afterwards
the nature of the topic fi rst
brought up by the mayor
changed over time.
“It started as a hypotheti-
cal, but it became reality,” he
said. “We had to see what was
meant by schools.”
Johnson said the 1,500 feet
distance is from the bound-
ary of the property, not the
actual building. While he
didn’t specify the location
being looked at, the relative
proximity of Tangled Ends to
McNary High School to the
south on Chemawa and public
buildings (Keizer Fire District
and Keizer Civic Center) to
the north on Chemawa would
seem to indicate the property
is somewhere on River Road.
a club record, but was thrown
out trying to stretch the hit to
a double, and the top of the
fourth ended.
In the Emerald third, De-
wees led off with his second
home run in two days, clearing
the right fi eld fence.
Andrew Suarez, the Volca-
noes’ starter, retired the fi rst
two batters in the fourth but
was removed by manager Kyle
Haines because he had reached
his pitch count limit. Haines
said after the game that Suarez
had just pitched a full college
season for Miami (Florida) and
was on a short pitch limit.
Luis Pino, who was to be-
come the winning pitcher,
replaced Suarez and gave up a
double to Ho-young Son, who
then reached third on a wild
pitch, but Pino struck out the
next batter to end the inning.
Eugene scored once in the
sixth. Bautista reached fi rst
base on error by third baseman
Gomez and went to third on
Son’s double to left center. An
error by shortstop CJ Hinojosa
let Bautista score.
The Volcanoes scored once
more in the eighth. Hinojosa
doubled to right off Adbert
Adzolay, who had relieved
Kellogg in the third. Riley
fl ew out to center, with Hi-
nojosa tagging and going to
third. A wild pitch brought
him home.
In the Eugene eighth, Rice
led off with a single to left off
Salem-Keizer’s new pitcher,
Eric Sim. Bautista, on a 3-2
pitch, homered over the left
fi eld fence. Jarret Leverett, a
left-handed pitcher, was put
in to face the left-handed
hitting Headley and walked
him. Son singled to right,and
right fi elder Duggar threw
out Headley at third. Devonte
Mitchell fl ew out to Dug-
gar, and Caleb Smith took the
mound and struck out Dewees
to end the inning.
Smith retired the side in the
order in the ninth and gained
his third save.
“It’s the fi rst time we’ve
played them here,” Haines said
of the series with the Em-
eralds, expressing optimism
about further games with Eu-
gene and saying he was not
surprised by their improved
hitting.
Smith, who is playing his
fi rst full professional season,
said his usual out pitch is his
slider but sometimes his fast
ball does the job. Regardless
of who is facing him, “I try to
keep my approach the same.”
Hinojosa, asked his im-
pression of the Emeralds, said,
“A lot of them are fi rst-pitch
swingers.”
