Former Childs property will
become subdivision in 1965
1915 — 100 years ago
A party of 150 Cincinnati
citizen grocers and their
families were entertained
Sunday afternoon under the
auspices of the Hood River
Commercial Club. 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.
MAY 20, 1995: “This way to state” — Merridy Bickford rounds third base as Hood River Valley coach
Phil Hukari points to home in Wednesday’s Mount Hood Conference playoff game. Bickford scored on
Claire Barrilleaux’s triple in the second inning to help Hood River defeat Barlow 8-3 and earn the
league’s No. 2 seed in the 4A tournament.
$100 E bond prize, and his
school was also given the
prize for the largest sales.
Second prize was won by
Bonnie Gean Alexander, of
Parkdale, and Betty Moll-
gaard of Barrett was winner
of the third prize.
Veterans of World War I
and World War II will be
among the first to buy a
poppy on Poppy Day, May 26,
according to Jess Edington,
Commander of Hood River
post American Legion. “V-E

but our men are still over-
seas fighting that we may
live in safety and in a better
world. These boys are our
relatives, our neighbors and

D. E. Erwin, the same man
who developed a tract of
homes on west May Street
last year, unfolded plans at a
city council meeting Monday

ther west between May and

mer Childs property, covers
some 15 acres between 22nd
and Rand Road, excluding

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

the Girls’ League. During the

contests were participated

ed by lot into four teams for

Folk dancing and marching

stacle races, yell and posture

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.

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

son. The winner was Roger
Cook, of Park Street School,
who sold E bonds to a total

Bridg e bonds totaling
$98,000 will be called by the
Hood River Port Commission
at the end of the current fis-
cal year, according to Burton
Badley, port manager. 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. The provision
was in the will of Louise Nex

Responding to increasing
complaints about the lack of
facilities, Hood River County
Board of Commissioners
Monday formed a committee
to discuss options for new
youth baseball fields. A pos-
sible site for the fields is the
Hood River County Fair-
grounds. Property may also
be available in Cascade
Locks. 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.
A proposal to build a Burg-
er King restaurant may have
moved a step closer to win-
ning a nod by the city plan-
ning commission, although a
decision has been continued
to a third hearing this Tues-
day. No Hood River Planning
Commission member voiced
an objection to the Cascadia
Development Company plan
to develop the project in the
waterfront area north of In-
terstate 84 just west of Sec-
ond Street.
2005 — 10 years ago
The employee owners of
Full Sail Brewing an-
nounced the release of Ses-
sion Premium Lager last
week. 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.

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.
