Calkins on the state road for the past several months, was arrested Sun- day by Sheriff Johnson and charged with lunacy. The young man made several at- tempts to kill himself. It has said that his mind had be- come unbalanced as a result of an infatuation for a young woman. 1925 — 90 years ago The Punch Bowl Service Station and Confectionery is now open in anticipation of a busy season on the Lost Lake Road. This station last season secured a fair share of business and proved to fill a public need. One of the most important experiments ever attempted came to a successful conclu- sion on Friday of last week, when 60 acres of the well- known Oregon Apple Com- pany orchard near Monroe, Ore., were sprayed with dust of arsenate of lead and sul- phur by two airplanes pilot- ed by Lieutenants Oakley Kelly and Miller; the exact time to perfectly cover all trees in the 60 acre tract being 34 seconds. This was the first attempt ever made to dust spray an apple or- chard by airplane, but all of the experts present declared that the “coverage” of the trees was perfect. 1935 — 80 years ago Two Hood River Ar my fliers, Lieuts. Leonard Thom- sen and Arlen McCarty, this week expressed the opinion that one of the most urgent local needs is a better land- ing field for air planes. “Somebody is going to get killed when trying to land at the field on the Heights,” said McCarty, and this view was maintained by Thom- sen. Many efforts have been made to secure a safe landing field for Hood River, but all have failed. Someday, it is hoped, ways and means for building a real landing field on the river will be devised.

The company paid $51.50 per thousand board feet for the fir, located in the Lake branch drainage Sun- shine rock area. Three hundred pounds of potatoes were taken from Don’s Market in Parkdale sometime Tuesday night and then used to break out win- dows in the Mount Hood Cash store, the sheriff ’s of- fice reports. “Parents who may find spuds in their cars should report it to the sher- iff ’s office,” Sheriff Rupert Gillmouthe said Wednesday. Additional qualifiers for Junior Olympics state com- petition were announced Wednesday morning by Jim Mallon, director of the Mid- Columbia district Junior Olympics meet. Earlier, state officials had told Mallon that second place finishers would not qualify. However, on Wednesday, he was told that second placers who bettered the state standard set up by the AAU did qualify for state competition.

JUNE 4, 2005: Georgiana Smith Park and the Hood River Library grounds are being transformed by crews from Hood River County public works and Mount Hood Gardens, as patios, stone walls, walk- ways and other work proceed. Marion McNew of Mount Hood Gardens, above, talks with employee Jose Marquez on the new circular patio on the State Street side. For the 40th year, Com- mencement exercises of Hood River high school were held at the auditorium on Wednesday evening of this week, before a large atten- dance of parents and friends. While the list of graduates contains 69 names, some who are already in the armed forces were unable to be pre- sent. Now that the summer is with us, residents of town to turn up concrete results this week, but Sheriff Bob Lynch said there have been new developments in the continuing investigation. He said they have located boxes used as containers to carry the stamps. The boxes had been discarded on Sum- mit Road, which lies west of t h e s c e n e wh e r e M r s. Melvin Dunn, a clerk at the post office, was held up on May 16. Diane Chambers, whose name has frequently been in the news during her high school years, earned head- lines again at graduation ceremonies last Thursday. She was introduced as one of 10 regional winners in the Outstanding Teenagers of America program in the United States. Previously she had been recognized as the Oregon winner in the judg- ing, and her credentials were examined along with those of other young people in the western states. 1985 — 30 years ago More than 140 seniors will don caps and gowns here Thursday, June 6, to pass a landmark in their lives to- wards “New Beginnings.” That’s the theme chosen by the Hood River Valley High School Class of 1985 for com- mencement, which starts at 8 p.m. in the school gymnasi- um. A gala weekend celebra- tion, Sternwheeler Days, will welcome the Columbia Gorge sternwheeler back to its home base at Cascade Locks June 14 through 16. Cascade Locks and Steven- son, Wash., are co-sponsor- ing this second annual festi- val to herald the vessel’s re- turn from its winter quar- ters at Portland. 1995 —20 years ago No houseboats at the Hook! That is the one firm di- rective the Waterfront Advi- sory Committee voted Mon- day night to send to consul- tants. The vote was 6-2, with Eric Cederstam and Dave Burkhard voting against the motion. Kathleen Nichols drew applause from an audi- ence of about 50 and from committee members with her objection to seeing Nichols Boat Works designed out of the consultants’ long- term plan. Citing lease re- newal options until 2056, she said Nichols Boat Works has no intention of relocating. Hood River can be a model community where young and old alike feel safe. It can have a positive environment for those who live here and those who visit. That’s the goal outlined by new Hood River City Manager Lynn Guenther. It’s something he hopes to make progress on in the next year, he told City Council Monday. 2005 — 10 years ago Hood River County citi- zens were called to exhibit patriotism that was devoid of “indifference, casualness, and cynicism” at Monday’s Memorial Day observance. Phil Jensen, owner of Luhr-Jensen and Sons, an- nounced Friday that his com- pany will merg e with Finnish company Ra- pala/VMC, of Helsinki, a move he said will enhance the finishing equipment manufacturer’s global distri- bution abilities.

The parade was larger than it had been in previous years, and the martial music of the K.P. Band was aug- mented by the stirring strains put forth by the Drum and Bugle Corps. While the parade was marching through town, the Women’s Auxiliary conducted the Water Ser- vice on Hood River bridge, the ceremony end- ing with the casting of flowers upon the waters. Seldom in the past has there been such a large at- tendance as at the Ceme- tery, where the ritualistic ceremonies were conduct- ed over the graves of vet- erans, and many were the floral tributes deposited on the graves in memory of those who have dropped from the ranks of those who fought for hteir country. Dr. H.D.W. Pineo was the marshal of the day, and Traffic Office Morri- son controlled traffic at the Cemetery. — Hood River News, June 5, 1925 PET OF THE WEEK ‘Mr. Adorable’ Pepi looking for home This week volunteers at Adopt A Dog have selected Pepi as the program’s adopt- able pet of the week: Just call him “Mr. Adorable!” Pepi is 8 pounds, all Pomeranian, and he’s pure delight! We were told he’s about 7 years old, but his teeth were mighty horrid, so we can’t know for sure. But now that we’ve had those icky teeth pulled, and cleaned and shined, Pepi is a happy, peppy fella full of curiosity and joy. He’s a perfect lap dog, but also a great walking buddy! He proudly prances Pepi along on a leashed walk, and keeps up just fine — even on long walks, which is saying something ‘cuz those little legs of his are short! And he loves other dogs and likes to join in the chase, even if it means he’s the last in line! Pepi is plain old sweet and precious and would love a home were cud- dles are plenty! He promises to make you smile every day! Pepi is current on shots, microchipped, neutered and has a clean, fresh smile!! The adoption fee for Pepi is $180. The fee to adopt is charged to recoup standard veterinary expenses. Since many of our dogs are in foster, please call ahead to meet Pepi in Odell at the Hukari Animal Shel- ter, 3910 Heron Drive, or call for more information at 541- 354-1083.
