Three pictures of the
Hood River county library
appear in the biennial re-
port of the Oregon State Li-
brary to the present legisla-
tive assembly. These are the
only pictures contained in
the report and show the ex-
t e r i o r s a n d a r c h i t e c t ’s
plans. “Many have built and
occupied during the past six
months,” says the report.
“One of the most attractive
small library buildings,
that at Hood River, is illus-
trated in this report, that I
may serve as a model for
others who are planning
small buildings.”

The Hood River Bakery
this week received its fine
new tr uck with special
body. The truck was pur-
chased from Bennett Broth-
ers of this city, and is of the
Dodge type. The special de-
livery body bears the em-
blem of the local bakery’s
“Two Mountain” bread and
striking pictures of Mounts
Hood and Adams are car-
ried. The trade name was
adopted after a recent con-
test and the general public
is rapidly recognizing Two
Mountain bread and other
baked products are of a
quality that more than com-
pares with baked products
brought in from outside.
The fortunate discovery
that dry rot fungus has at-
tacked the beams and stud-
ding in the city hall build-
the amount of $5,000, and
there is cash in hand suffi-
cient to take care of part of
the improvement bonds that
mature this year. However,
the bonds of the Oak and
State street improvements
may not be taken up unless
taxes are collected in grater
volume than during the past
few years.

The recent application of
the First National Bank to
the War Production Board
for enlarging and remodel-
ing has been turned down,
states E.L. Morton, manag-
er. Plans for complete re-
arrangement were recently
drawn by Knute Roald, Port-
land architect. At the pre-
sent time, the bank is han-
dling all of the extra work
occasioned by the War Ra-
tioning program without
sufficient facilities for this
additional volume. It is
hoped that, in the very near
future, the work can be
commenced and the neces-
sary relief granted to the
very patient patrons of the
bank who have been so gra-
cious in their attitude to-
ward this serious problem.
The War Food Adminis-
tration has amended War
Food Order 121 to remove

make certain varieties of

FEBRUARY 20, 1975: Getting ready for an unusual start of a fund raising campaign sponsored by
Jaycettes are two who will participate in the Saturday program. Kerry Sauvageau, left, and Sue Hukari
familiarize themselves with equipment at the Ben Franklin store they’ll use Saturday in a “hot popcorn
and hot pants sale” at the shopping center variety store. The Jaycettes have a collection of hot pants
they’ll sell for $1 each, and the popcorn will be on sale from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. All proceeds will go to
the Don Goss family benefit.This is one of several projects by the Jaycettes to help in the project, which
was initiated after fire destroyed the Goss home Jan. 2.

Several women in the Pine
Grove community hosted
the party at the Earl Moore
home, and Mrs. Moore pro-
vided cakes and other re-
freshments for about 65
guests.
The first phase of Hood
River County’s reborn Unit-
ed Fund Campaign got off
the ground Monday with
the opening of the drive for
funds from corporate firms
and professional people. Ul-
timate goal of the project
which combines five local
efforts into one, is $18,400.

Mr. Kreig states that he now

In spite of the favoring
memorial from the Oregon
legislature, the Mount Hood
tramway project has been
definitely rejected by all de-
partments of the Public
Wo rk s A d m i n i s t r a t i o n ,
which declare that the pro-
ject does not come within
the scope of the loaning
powers of the bureau. It
would now appear that,
short of financing by pri-
vate financial groups, the
Mount Hood cableway pro-
ject will again go into hiber-
nation.
The financial condition of
the Municipality of Hood
River shows a marked im-
provement during the past
year, as compared with the
year 1933. During the year
under review, say the audi-
tors, there was a decrease in
uncollected taxes, and a
warrant indebtedness was
reduced by $7,300 during the
same period. Cold Springs
water bonds were retired in
Washington more available
for the armed forces and
other governmental agen-
cies.

Armas Jakku of Odell
was reelected as supervisor
of the Hood River Soil Con-
servation District for a
three-year term at the annu-

Wednesday. The program
included a motion picture,
“The Big Test;” the annual
report by William Hazel-
tine; a report on the conser-
vation program by Dick
Prowell, engineer; “and a
S o i l S u r ve y ” by Ru dy
Mayko, of the state soil con-
servation service.
Hood River County is one
of the first two counties in
Oregon to exceed its goal to
help finance the Stanford
research study of the pro-
posed 1959 World’s Fair in
Oregon. Roy Webster, who
headed the local drive and
is chairman of the county
centennial committee, was
given a check for $576 — $76
in excess of the goal — by
Ed Steele, chamber of com-
merce manager-secretary.
A l t h o u g h We b s t e r h a d
hoped the local drive would
net $1,000, it was learned
that the goal set by the state
committee for the county
was only $500.

Snow caves and igloos re-

Boy Scouts last weekend as

Meadows their overnight
home. Called Camp Brrr —
the name comes to you nat-
urally after a while — the
camp-out was the second
annual winter trip for
scouts from the Mid-Colum-
bia. Too add to the setting,
each troop designated their
individual camp with a
name that coincided with
the scenery. Signs bearing
names like “Polar Bear” or
“Snow Cave” protr uded
from the snow at various lo-
cations.

Hood River port commis-
sioners are finding the days
not long enough as they
pursue the port’s interests
in many directions. The
massive Diamond project,
the possible purchase of the
Mt. Hood Railway, Wells Is-
land development and a
number of smaller projects
are all underway and re-
quire attention.
D r. T i n a C a s t a ñ a r e s,
M.D., will formally open a
general practice in the of-
fices of Dr. W.T. Edmundson
starting Feb. 25. She arrived
here in October, and estab-
lished residence here per-
manently late in January.
While she’ll share offices
and staff with Dr. Edmund-
son, she will maintain a
separate practice. While
she is not the first woman
doctor in this area, she may
become the first to open a
regularly established office
practice here.

After spending time be-
hind jail bars Thursday,
Hood River County Board of
Commission
members
seemed to get a clear under-
standing about the limits of
their aging lockup. What is
still unclear, though, is
whether it’s a good idea to
join a proposed six-county
regional jail project. This
Tuesday, commissioners are
scheduled to decide if they
want to take the next step in
regional jail development.
Hood River wasn’t spared
from a second round of
snowfall Wednesday. It was
the second time in 72 hours
that a heavy amount of win-
ter weather hit the gorge.
The snow was about eight
inches deep around town.
Relief came Thursday as a
warm front brought rain to
the area and melted away
most of the snow.

In January, while most of

VERBATIM
Heated Talk Marks
Airing of Road Names
It’s almost habit how
for the County Planning
Commission to face a
group of upset citizens at
its regular meetings, and
Tuesday night was no ex-
ception.
The pattern has devel-
oped since cards went out
telling valley residents
their addresses were
going to change under a
new grid system.
Part of the 15-member
group at Tuesday’s meet-
i n g w a s eve n m o r e
stirred up than usual,
because it had taken
them two days to find
the right meeting. On
Monday night, part of
the group went to a city
council meeting, under-
standing here was to be
a discussion of the
street renaming pro-
gram.
C o u n c i l m e n we n t
through their regular
business, told the visi-
tors
street
name
changes were not on the
agenda for discussion,
but entered an informal
discussion with the visi-
tors — several of them
from outside the city
limits.
Others who wanted to
attend a protest meeting
had gone to the court
h o u s e M o n d ay n i g h t
only to find the meeting
room dark.
“We had about 200 out
last night,” said one of
the men in the audience.
Although they weren’t
as numerous at Tuesday
night’s meeting, they
were vociferous. In a dis-
cussion that was punctu-
ated by frequent inter-
ruptions and loud voices
on both sides of the
table, one woman in the
back of the room burst
out that the program
was being carried out
“almost like commu-
nism.”
At one point, John
Huston, who said he had
lived 63 of his 81 years at
one place on Belmont
Road, and flatly, “It will
be Belmont Road as long
as I live.”
Eventually the tone of
the meeting quieted
down into an explana-
t i o n by c o m m i s s i o n
chairman Bill Furrow of
the grid plan and how it
c a m e t o b e. H e a l s o
stressed that the com-
mission was planning a
whole series of public
meetings in various
areas to go over the
plans and problems.
New houses mush-
rooming in the communi-
ty had completely dis-
rupted the numbering
system, Fur row ex-
plained, and the local
post office felt a new sys-
tem was needed. He
pointed out that it is the
responsibility of the
county to name or alter
road names on county
routes. He also said it was
not uncommon for road
names to be change, and
these changes were never
voted on.
Carl Krieg, a member
of the commission who
was frequently at the
center of the night’s dis-
cussion, summariz ed
his opinion this way:
“I’ve lived here a long
time, too. I didn’t like
the idea of changing the
road names, but things
are in a mess now and
something has to be
done. We owe it to our
kids to straighten things
out, and this is the best
plan this commission
came up with. We’ re
willing to listen to con-
structive suggestions
anytime.”
