The party arrived from Portland at four o’clock and were met at the dock by automobiles, which took them for a ride around the loop. A reunion was planned at the club upon their return, but they got back just in time to catch the five o’clock train. 1925 — 90 years ago While the pageant was in progress last Saturday, a thief or thieves entered the dressing rooms in the high school and stole small sums of money and personal arti- cles. During the day some miscreant removed the sil- ver shield from the wall in the main corridor. This was the gift of the Women’s Club in 1917 and contained the names of the debaters of 1917, 1922, 1923 and 1924. The intrinsic value of the shield was small, but the sentimen- tal value was great. At the meeting of the Board of Directors of the local Chamber of Commerce on Monday morning it was decided to guarantee the sum of $400 necessary for the completion of the Cooper’s Spur Road. The town of Parkdale is raising the other $100. It was estimated that a total of $4500 would be neces- sary to do this work, of which Multnomah County has contributed $2500 and Hood River County has con- tributed $1500, leaving the sum of $500 to the effort.

His land, the for- mer Childs property, covers some 15 acres between 22nd and Rand Road, excluding Jensen and Lester proper- ties. MAY 18, 1945: From Ed’s Penny-Wise Grocery and Market ad. 1935 — 80 years ago Over 300 high school girls from The Dalles, Mosier, Odell, Parkdale and Cascade Locks, gathered with Hood River high school girls re- cently to enjoy the annual Mid-Columbia play day, which was held at the high school under the auspices of the Girls’ League. During the day competitive sports and contests were participated in, with the girls being divid- ed by lot into four teams for competition in the events. Folk dancing and marching started the get acquainted day and were followed by ob- stacle races, yell and posture contests, relays, tumbling, a treasure hunt and games. To the strains of the Fu- neral March, members of the Breakfast Club, defeated 29.5 to 16.5 in their recent golf tournament, on Thursday of last week, with heads bowed low in submission, marched through the Rotary Club room while members were at lunch. After admitting that their fond hopes of defeating Rotarians had again been shattered, the losing team was invited to join in the lun- cheon and program. 1945 — 70 years ago Grade school children of both town and country schools made an excellent showing in the bond-selling contest promoted by Mrs. Hazel Murphy, four prizes for which were presented by County Judge C.D.

He said the amount was above the usual number of bonds called because “the past year has been an exceedingly good year for bridge tolls.” Badley said the payment will leave about $820,000 to be A bequest to Hood River County of nearly $2 million for a retirement center with nursing facilities was re- vealed to the county commis- sion Monday.

Lack of field space has become an increasing problem for youth baseball in the area, said Commis- sioner John Arnes, who pro- posed the committee.

The release of Ses- sion marks the return of the classic 11 ounce stubby bottle — once the standard shape and size of American beer containers. Full sale began bottling the beer last week. A major makeover on the face of downtown Hood River is nearing comple- tion, and the changes brought by the new develop- ment go more than skin deep. The building at 310 Oak Street will not only change the retail picture downtown when three of its ground floor spaces are oc- cupied next month, but it will bring residential “lofts” to the downtown core for the first time. — Compiled by Trisha Walker, news staff writer VERBATIM Outlook for Jobs Brightens Locally Outlook for jobs in this area is “fairly bright” for the next few months, re- ports Boyd W. Jackson, employment service man- ager. Strawberry hoeing is expected to start in May and work in trans- portation, retail trade, logging and lumbering should also pick up this month, Jackson reports in the April labor market bulletin. Strawber ry picking and fruit thinning should start early in June, the re- por t continues. April showed the first signs of reviving logging and agri- cultural activities as weather allowed more loggers to return to work and orchardists to start spring work. “One area that appears to be extremely slow is be- ginning jobs for graduat- ing seniors in other than season work,” Jackson re- ports. “This office has conducted aptitude tests at both high schools in the valley and has a list of test selected applicants in nearly all occupations,” he continues. Employers are reminded to call the employment office if they wish to hire one of these graduates. Construction of the Na- tional Guard armory in Hood River is progressing according to schedule with a small crew. One contractor at The Dalles laid off a number of con- struction workers recent- ly but these are expected to be absorbed soon by an- other contractor who is starting another project, the bulletin states. — Hood River News, May 20, 1955
