Hunter said Oregon beach-

ming only after two consec-
utive samples show domoic
acid is below the alert level.
Exactly when that might hap-

because the clams are very
slow to eliminate the toxin.

Helen Charity Acton was born in the small
town of Volin, South Dakota , on Nov. 27, 1913.
She was the fourth child of 10 born to Walter and
Florence Campbell. She has one surviving sibling,
a sister, Florence, in Huntington Beach, California.
She and her family came to Oregon in 1919
by train. They ¿ rst settled in Gladstone, Oregon.
Her father, Walter, was a carpenter around
the Portland area, so Helen attended grade
school there.
While in high school, she stayed with her
older sister, Louise, in Astoria. She became
friends with a girl across the street, Muriel Ac-
ton. Muriel had an older brother, Jack. Helen
and Jack married in 1934.
Two children were born to them: a daughter,
Helen Irene Sullenger, and a son, Donald Ber-
nard Acton. Irene had one child, a son, Michael
Thille, who lives in Redmond, Oregon. Irene
now lives in Tygh Valley, Oregon , and Donald
in the family home in Svensen, Oregon.
A memorial will be scheduled later.
