Duckwall, Al Groff Company roads get new names in 1955

Meetings have been held at
both Odell and Pine Grove
during the past week to con-
sider the proposition of es-
tablishing a high school at
Odell. This has met with
strong favor and indications
are that the school may be es-
tablished before another
school year. It is proposed to
combine the districts of
Odell, Valley Crest, Fir and
part of the Pine Grove for
high school purposes.

Frank Moore, who dis-
penses eats and drinks at
the Hood River Drug Co. in
town and lives on Avalon
Way, thought the enemy had
arrived when, early Sunday
morning, he was awakened
by a t e r r i f i c e x p l o s i o n
which shook the house. An
investigation revealed that
the big pressure tank of an
automatic water system
had blown up, tore its way
from the basement thought
rafters, and through the
floor of the dining room. It
is stated that the cause of
the explosion was the fail-
ure of the automatic cut-out
to work, which permitted
the air pressure to increase
until the tank could no
longer stand the strain.
While the Columbia
River at the end of last
week stood 30 feet above low
water mark, it is a long way
below what are regarded as
years of really high water.
T he highest water ever
known is 54 feet, recorded
in 1894, when the flood
water was level with the
railroad tracks. That year
the river rose one foot a day
until the day when the peak
was re gistered, when it
made a rise of four feet.

Rumors that efforts would
be made by a union delega-
tion from Portland to close
the Oregon Lumber Compa-
ny’s mill and box plant at
Dee, which has been circulat-
ing over several days, materi-
alized early Tuesday when,
bright and early, four men
who admitted they were
union delegates, arrived in
Hood River and, after eating
breakfast, left for the mill at
Dee, with the announcement
that, when they returned to
MAY 31, 1995: SERVICE DISTRACTION — While Cub Scouts (from left) Alex Lozowski, Johnathan
Gilmore, Matthew Rambo, Ryan Flory and Erik Hidle stand at attention during the playing of “Taps”
at Monday’s Memorial Day observance at Idlewilde Cemetery, something catches Gilmore’s attention.
A pair of F-15 Eagle jet fighters fly over the ceremony; they can be seen here directly over Flory’s head.

for the summer months,

used. The Parkdale and
Odell communities will also
have child care centers set
up. Mothers interested in
this program are urged to
leave their names with Mrs.
Ralph H. Jones, 613 Oak
Street, as soon as possible.

Two county roads recently
were renamed by the county
court. Duckwall Road is now
Wy’east Drive and is the
county road between the
state highway boarding the
F.L. Moe property south of
Tucker’s bridge to Duke’s
Valley Road. It is routed by
Wy’east High School. The
second road formerly was
the Al Groff Company Road
and is now the Roy Webster
Road. It extends from Deth-
man Ridge Road to Ehrch
Road. T he names were
changed on May 11 and May
18.

overcast, and a few drops of
rain fell during the morning.
But the day was warm and
calm as the community paid
its memorial tribute. Two pa-
rades, a main address, and
decorating a monument at
Idlewilde cemetery drew
more than 200 persons to par-

observance.
A $37,000 community
block grant from the Depart-

Tuesday to the city of Cas-

ters and curbs in the city. In
addition to these municipal
improvements, the funds
will be used in concluding
Cascade Locks’ urban renew-

About 10 young people
from Hood River (they hope
there will be more) will form
a “first of a kind” delegation
this year to visit sister city
Tsuruta, Japan. The tenta-
tive plan is to travel to Tokyo,
de par ting for Tsur uta
aboard the world famous bul-
let train. In Tsuruta, the stu-
dents will be guests in homes
throughout their week-long
stay, returning to Tokyo on
the bullet train at the close of
their visit.
When Greg Moser and the
Memphis Showboats came
to Portland to take on the
Breakers in USFL pro foot-
ball action Saturday, it was
more than a game for the
former Hood River Valley
High wide receiver and his
followers. It was a double
loss. Not only did Portland
upset the Breakers 17-14,
but Moser snared only two
passes — one on a two-point
conversion — and one nulli-
fied by the USFL’s new red
flag appeal. A nice catch by
Moser was nullified when
refs said he didn’t have con-
trol of the ball before going
out of bounds. Moser did
give the Hood River follow-
ing a few cheers, though, de-
spite the loss.
MAY 29, 1985: Doris Greenough, costumer of the 1985 Lions Follies,

the success of the show. About 30 new costumes added color to the 1995 — 20 years ago

of the city council is now de-
liberating on an ordinance
which will bar double park-

that double parking on Oak

ard in the business sections
of town.

There was a general re-
gret in Hood River Friday
morning of last week when
it was learned that Truman
Butler, for many years a
leader in this community,
had died suddenly while he
was resting at Nelscott, at
the age of 73. He played a
leading part in civic and
other prog ressive move-
ments in the Hood River
area and his work for the
benefit of this community
will ever be associated with
its growth.

Old and young and those of

annual Memorial Day obser-

pass this Friday — the first
day of the Memorial Day
holiday weekend. When the
$8 million Oregon Depart-
ment of Transpor tation
renovation project began,
that agency pledged two
lanes of traffic would be re-
stored for the summer
tourist season. Just a south-
bound route has been open
the past four months. This
week, a state official and
project contractor Weaver
Construction said the dead-
line would be met. It will be
a tight fit, though.

VERBATIM
Parkdale Safe
Blown, Looted
For the third time with-
in the year, yeggs made an-
other, and this time, suc-
cessful attempt to blow the
big safe at the McIsaac
store and post office at
Parkdale. Early Wednes-
day morning, with a roar
which awakened a num-
ber of people the safe was
blown with such force that
part of it was shot through
the store front into the
street. Before anyone got
around, however, the
yeggs decamped and a
checkup made on Wednes-
day shows that about $1300
in cash and stamps had
been taken. Throughout
the day Sheriff Edick and
his men kept the wires hot
trying to locate a Chevro-
let Car, which had been
seen in Parkdale at a late
hour on Tuesday night.
According to officers, a
very heavy charge was
used on the safe, which
was of the latest, burglar-
proof type.
Three attempts have
been made to blow safes
in the McIsaac store with-
in the past 12 months.
Last year, around straw-
berry time, yeggs tried to
blow the safe, but apart
from doing considerable
damage in the store, were
not successful. Later in
the same year, another at-
tempt resulted in the big
doors being shattered, but
the inner door defied the
efforts of the yeggs, who
got away with goods from
the store but no money.
Mr. McIsaacs then in-
stalled a heavy burglar
proof safe of the most
modern type and believed
no further efforts would
be made.
The entire loss is fully
covered by burglar insur-
ance. Mr. McIsaacs left last
Saturday for Louisville,
Kentucky, on Association
business, and was expect-
ed to arrive in Chicago
Wednesday morning.
